Grayson and the Outlaws

The Mission: V

Now.

Hazy vision. Throbbing headache. Aching limbs... What had they done to him? Taking in his surroundings, he was entrapped by four dark gray walls. No door? Captured... It took him a while to register the collar around his neck. Precautionary actions? Likely shock. Taking a moment he stood up, hands cuffed behind his back. He could tell they weren't your normal cop cuffs. Meta cuffs maybe? But he dismissed the notion when he heard steps. Stopping behind the gray wall he now stood in front of. The wall slide open, revealing behind it a woman in military like attire. He smirked, he had a plan.

"Mystery man." The woman said as she took a step closer to her captive. A smug smile on her face. "At least you were before we took your blood samples." She was hoping to get a reaction out of the man, but to no avail. She opened some documents that she had just received prior to visiting. "Boy Wonder. Nightwing. Dead? Any of that ring a bell, Richard John Grayson?"

Grayson smirked, "Since you know my name it's only right that I know yours." He said smoothly. Sweet talk.

The woman delivered a back hand across Grayson's swirl of a face. She looked ready for business now. Probably not good. "I gave you no permission to speak!" A grim leer was aimed the spy's way.

"Why so serious?" Grayson countered. "I'm your boyfriend remember?" He looked the woman in her eyes as she starred into his mysterious face. He had caught her in a hypnotic trance. His Spyral issued Hypnos Implant. Man did he love it. "Remember?" Grayson paused, "Wait, what's your name again?"

"I am Bridget Clancy. Agent of Argus. Double Agent for S.H.A.D.E. I am 22 years of age. I'm undercover as a landlady. And-"

Grayson interrupted the woman, "Whoa, slow down cupcake. What is this place?"

Agent 37's voice was like majestic music to her ears. Completely overwhelmed were the nerves in her brain. It was a numbing pleasure. She'd do anything for him at this moment. "A research facility. Derived from old employees from Cadmus, now working for Argus."

Cadmus? Not again. Messing around with DNA by the looks of those creatures he encountered. "What were those creatures that attacked me earlier?" He was still unaware of how long he's been out for. Two days.

Agent Clancy took a moment before answering the captured spy. Well, the roles are kind of switched now. "The winged woman is Diane Lane. Former scientist for this facility. She was spliced with the DNA of Wonder Woman and Hawkgirl. Her code name is Wonder Hawk."

Grayson mentally rolled his eyes. Wonder Hawk? Real creative... "What about the other? The male?"

"Roland Desmond. Brother of former Cadmus head scientist, Mark Desmond, Aka Blockbuster. He was given the Blockbuster serum as well as spliced with alien DNA." Clancy stated boringly.

Grayson scrunched his eye brows, but considering how his face was scrambled in a hypnotic swirl no one could tell. He was orangish, but could liquify himself. "Alien DNA. What kind?"

Clancy. How wonderful she was feeling from being blissfully hypnotized. "Martian and Tamaranian. The Martian from one Malefic."

Malefic? Come on Dick knew this one. Malefic... Martian... Ma'alefa'ak J'onzz! Manhunter's brother!

"And Tamaranian blood from a syringe used by the vigilante Starfire." Clancy finished.

Syringe? Why would she be using a syringe? He knew she'd been hanging out with Arsenal, but he wasn't a druggy anymore. At least he thought so? This really bugged him more than it should have and it irked him to know it did. "Recently captured Red Hood, Arsenal, and... S-starfire?" He nearly choked on her name. "Where are they?"

Enemy Facility. Cell Block C.

"I swear to god... If I'm not out of here soon I'm gonna lose it! Again!" Jason yelled, frustrated, as he fell backwards to the ground. His hands cuffed behind his back. Angry. No clue where he was, where his team had gone, where his helmet went, Who attacked them, and who the hell was that faceless freak. He starred up at the ceiling.

...

"Ow!"

"Blaa!"

Zap

Buzz

"Ugh!"

"Please don't! Eep!"

Jason sat up, looking at the wall beside him which the noises came from. Noises of pain, he knew. Just what was going on? The wall flew up and the first and only thing Todd saw was his red helmet flying dead at him. Luckily it landed beside him, not delivering a hit.

"Get up. We're headed out." The faceless spy was in front of Jason. Jason only starred at him. No words. Grayson sighed and yanked Jason up by his jacket. "No time for formalities. We gotta rescue Star." He freed Todd of his restraints and gave him his two pistols. Bad move.

Jason checked his chambers before aiming down his sights with his unknown savior's head. "Who the hell are you?"

"And here I thought you'd thank me with a hug." Grayson said sarcastically before holding his hands up in surrender. "I'm not here to kick your ass Red. Just-" The guns were now pressed up to his jaw.

Jason looked at him with scrutinizing eyes, his eyebrows pinched together. He wanted answers. And now... But the threatened man didn't budge.

"Jay Bird, chill!" The voice came from beyond the now open wall. Arsenal. "He got me out of my cell too. He said Kori may be in trouble."

Grayson let out a low chuckle, "Jay Bird?"

Jason glared at the spy before deciding to tuck his guns away in his holsters. He pick up his helmet, placing it over his head. "Where?"

Grayson walked out of the room and looked to the short haired female he currently had in a trance. "Cell Block A. Experiment holding room." She responded robotically.

Red Hood walked up to the trio, Grayson, Arsenal, and the woman. "The hell is she?"

"Don't worry. She can't do anything even if she wanted to." Agent 37 paused. "Well technically all she wants to do is help me. She thinks we're dating!" He laughed.

"Whatever. As soon as we get Starfire we're out." Not knowing who stood in front of him made him cautious. He tries anything, that's a bullet.

Grayson ignored Jason's lingering glare. Signaling Agent Clancy to lead the way, he followed after her.

Enemy Facility. Cell Block A.

It didn't take long for them to reach where their extraterrestrial friend was being held. Unfortunately for the three intruders and one captured agent, the area was stacked with security.

They weren't entering the area just yet. Sticking in the abandoned hallways to avoid confrontation was the plan so far. Agent Clancy knew the ins and outs of the base subconsciously, not to mention a few secret passages. But from here to Starfire's chamber was a one way road.

"Any ideas spy guy?" Red Hood asked sarcastically. Not even interested if Grayson answered him or not.

"Oh. I got a few ideas." Grayson smiled, which his accomplices still couldn't see, and turned to an empty room beside them. "But this one's golden."

...

"Three escaped captives. Threat level 4." The agent told their peer.

Reacting immediately, the agent turned to slam a button on the desk beside him. "Agent! Captives have escaped! Initiating Protocol IV!" He grabbed his weapon of choice, a modified rifle. Who's knows what that thing is really capable of. Then almost as soon as his announcement was made, the other agents occupying this containment area rushed down the one way hall. They were now on the hunt. "Thanks for the heads up Clancy."

Agent Clancy gave a subtle nod. She followed him into the hallway, that was until she came to a door to a room. She waited for the agents to pass before going into the supposedly empty room. "Area nearly clear. Just two guards guarding the entrance."

"Great. I thought I was gonna have to blow spy guy here to bits." Red Hood said in a boring and annoyed tone.

Grayson got up from sitting against the wall. Where his spy stories really that bad? Sure he had made some of them a bit more interesting as in inserted false but hilarious tales. Jason never was the type to like his stories, especially when he used to talk about his adventures as Robin before he 'died'.

Clancy watched Grayson exit the room, "We're still a go for tonight right?"

Grayson was looking at the guards standing guard in front of Star's cell room. He barely heard his hypnotized admirer, "Yeah yeah. Sure." He said before silently heading towards the guards, staying out of their line of sight. He was basically running along the edges of the wall when he tossed an electrified escrima stick at a guard's head which effectively knocked him out. Before the other had time to react, Grayson delivered a flashy spinning heel kick to his skull. "That went smoother than I thought."

Red Hood walked up beside Agent 37. Looking at his work, he pointed at the one hit by an electric metal stick. "I'm pretty sure you killed that guy." He said plainly.

Grayson took out Clancy's id badge he used to open Jason and Roy's cells. But he looked back to see what his once trainee was talking about before laughing it off. "He's just sleeping." And then he heard a click. "There we g-" he was cut off when an extremely powerful force rammed him into the wall across the room. The impact made him nearly faint right there as he held his eyes shut from pain. He was starting to feel a little groggy. What the heck hit him? He was sure that was Starfire's cell. Wasn't he? The blue eyed spy slowly opened his eyes.

Pinning Grayson to the wall by his throat now was someone radiating with a fiery aura. Blue eyes meeting green. Red hair a mess. Tanned body tense. Face confused with anger. An orange fist raised. She was about to pummel him in a fit of blind fury.

In shock the dashing spy was lost in thought. "Kori...?" Dick did the only thing he knew to escape what would be a bloody confrontation like this. He kissed the tan beauty...
