WARNING: THIS CHAPTER IS DARK AND WILL INVOLVE ONE OR MORE OF THE CHARACTERS GETTING HARMED BY ONE CHARACTER THAT IS COMPLETELY BRAIWASHED. IT'S THE OTHER BIRD. HOP TO IT!

Dami and his companion dragged open the hatch that led to the city's outskirts; woods behind the manor, with Dami's bike their only vehicle that hadn't been securely locked down in the cave.
Rose clung to his waist as the two drove off to find shelter from the Talon inside of the manor. They had to get a beam up to the Watchtower. Someplace safe.
Then, Dami had a plan.
"I need you to scream." He stopped the bike once he knew they were safe enough to talk out a new plan.
"We need the League in this, but not to help father. To save the city. I can't get everyone together."
"Damian, you are just a kid." Rose brought her hand to his shoulder with a small smile. "You can't expect to be the best at everything. If we have to have the heroes help your family, I'll try."
"My scream won't carry far enough." The boy looked to see if they weren't being followed. "With a higher pitch, you can do it. Call Superman, so he knows to bring the others."
"Ok." Rose took in a large gasp of air. "Here goes…"
/
She was no coot, no loon from the north country, and not a prima donna of any sort.
Rose yelled until her face turned pale, all of her energy out, she did it again. She really believed it would work.
" SUPERMAAN!!! HELP!!! WE NEED YOU!!! HELP!!!!! SUPERMAAAAN!!!!"
Dami looked to see the wind through the streets as he dismounted from his cycle. "Anything?"
Damian's eyes forgot about Clark for a moment as his sword quickly swung out.
" Behind you!"
/
Swinging back at the undead monster known as the Court's "Talon" would only save them time, yet the Talon traveled in groups. Assassins with only the highest degree of a killer's ethics.
Getting the job done.
"Drop your weapon and come with us."
"And end up a prisoner to this city?" Sneered Dami as he pulled out a smoke bomb from the cave's stock pile. "Not on your nine lives, loser!"
The Talon covered its face as the teen dove to look for Rose.
Had he only been less willing to let her –
"Stay…. stay away from me! Dami!"
"Rose!"
/ Batman breathed in the mountain air; right now, he and Kori were steps from the fort. Gar had to have out run Jason by a few miles before the bear and tiger or lion…. scare.
While Raven and Cyborg, had stayed behind. Raven thought she could get closer to Tim or Dick if they didn't get too far away, and Cyborg was going to fake a falling out to make Slade distracted.
A sad attempt, but it would have to do.
Starfire was grounded, yet she knew this scape and tried to compare it to the outer reaches od space. She'd not forgotten who she was, nor had the others…
Dick couldn't be brainwashed, Bruce decided. He was going through something else, and magic was only a part of the dilemma of shorting Slade's circuits.
"Anything on your side, Starfire?" Bruce called from his tree in the grove. The rocks here were turned to sediment. He ground some between his fingers, dust. Something had stomped these…
A dark cloud was only as far as it could be, as Starfire cried out and pointed before bolting away from the dust storm.
"There…. what is that cyclone??"
"A stampede?" He gasped and ran to her, the two heading for higher ground.
"Has to be…wind…. machine…"
"A machine??" Kori shouted over the impressive gusts. "We cannot lose the flag!! It will not be "the safe!" She yelped and saw her exact prediction.
" Look!"
/
Raven sat meditating, and someone wasn't glad to be watching a snore – fest.
Tim was brains, not brawn necessarily. What his master wanted…was strange, and so was the fact that a part of him had protected…
Tim's eyes shut before becoming glassier upon opening.
Raven was this tiger cub's prey. He could chase her and she'd do as she was told, or die resisting.
A tiger in the grass, he got ready…
"I…sense one of them…." Raven tied to sink deeper into her other chance. "Close…. he's –
" You TRAITOR !!"
Tim launched himself at the empath and something, snapped. His collar could have been too tight, yet for another purpose…Slade had wanted the third bird's ego completely wrecked for good.
/
"M- master…. please…no…"
Raven…. What…what was Slade having his brother do??
"Stay with Kilowatt, pet." Slade motioned for the guards to take Dick into the play room. "You don't have to watch this part."
"I…I do! Stop! Don't touch her!! No! Slade…please!!! Stop him! Somebody!!"
The other doorways shut tightly as Slade was left before his favorite form of entertainment.
"Sudden death, no no. You'll be humiliated for trying to stick that nose in the wrong direction. Now, not again." Slade snarled at the screaming and stone-faced witch. "I won't just ruin you; I'll have him make you bleed for taking what's mine!"
/
HERE IS THE WARNING, SO DON'T FREAK IF IT GETS SEVERE. I HAVE A PLAN B. UGH, THIS BLOWS. GOING IN!
/
Raven could have been facing off against a hoard of tigers in the grass.
Because she WAS getting partly harassed by a swarming cloud of tigers and one human male with a knife to her chest.
And cutting away what kept her whole, she tried with all her power and ended up shocked instead.
Slade…Slade was ordering Tim to take her down. She had to call –
"No-
" Nmmmpnn!!" Tim dipped down and with a knee to her chest; a hand to cover her lips, a knife in hand trying to destroy her leotard…
"I want you to let them smell you. I'll be careful not to cut too close to the skin."
Right now, Timmy.
Meek, moody and just plain old for his years was…acting wild and ill.
As in sick, sick for anything that moved out of the corner of his eye.
~ Scarecrow…~ She breathed and realized. ~ It's all his formula. Slade hired Crane to harm the boys. I can fi –
"Stop THINKING out loud!" Snapped the hero with a clasp too tight round her throat. "Don't make me demand for you to shut up, or?"
She snaked back with her legs to kick him, yet Timmy was not to be resisted.
"Stay, because I'll need to forget all about them…so, help me…. To help you…"
Tim…another personality??
He lifted his hand to cup her scared face, sweat coating it now as his face dipped low to kiss the bridge of her nose, lower towards those drying lips due to the heat, his heat being greater as his body simply craned.
The tigers stayed, no noise to Cy to follow the breeze, as he was too far away to know what this imposter was after.
Just like Ren….
~The book! ~
Tim was given a lustful personality just like Dick, and unless he…
She felt his tongue dive right in, tasting saliva and wet teeth. His scent overwhelming and too young. Too stupid as she squirmed under the grip of the tome's evil hexed being.
A whine as he sunk deeper until his body was flesh up against her. She panicked and squealed out through her nose. No! The thing would take over if…. this wasn't right! Slade was letting demons…. no!
He finally pulled back with a thread between then, licking his lips as if the fruit was still fresh. Still there to be plucked. "It's just a kiss." He added coyly. "Would you rather I grant you…. something more?"
"No!" She barked, hoping it would carry over the lion's roaring.
Oh no…
"My cats would help, but I want to preserve you as you are. A sacrifice. And once this body belongs to me, I'll be given all the young tasty flesh that I can…. ehem…stomach. Speaking of…"
"Get off!!"
"NO." Tim's strength somehow had increased due to the thing controlling him, his building sack like a stone to her gut.
"No, you'll have me; it won't be long…submit…give up."
"Never…" Raven's chest was fondled and her lips ended up back as before. Teased and tingling, her eyes watering from the forceful embrace that went….
Her body? No! She needed t –
The rest of her clothing was torn. And so too, was her chance at having Robin and his team together for one last victory. Tim straddled her harshly down, the being inside practically drooling for a chance to rattle her bones. Deflowering was long past. She'd been taken by a spring bird before.
But, never by a hawk…
This was just a punishment from the one in charge, seated at his tall podium. Clapping at the performance…
"Don't say I never cared about him; Dickie never took your hand, but I promise….to make you beg for your next release...As he did for me!" (Because Slade made Tim have sex with Dick to soften him up a bit. Chapter two.)
Her lowest sacred parts were exposed, her eyes shut as his cock rooted in deep.
Sharp teeth took a bite of her throat as it stopped her from screaming to clench that jaw, the pain as venom. For was that thing inside Tim even a monster, but a muse?? An aspect of lust and desire that had only been set free because of Slade's tampering…Dear…. gods did it ache!
Stealing what she and Richard had only shared, oh…. Raven gritted her teeth and seethed to the air as thunder sounded on over the horizon.
"I'll…never…...forget this…. Slade !" She screamed as the pain of having been neglected for years, finally came swirling back. And so too, there was blood. Yet not of red or black…
Yet of a pearl - white sinner's.
Tim fell over once he was done in only minutes. No marathon of demons to take her away. With his body swaying as the cameras kept on picking up each clip, possibly to use later on. He was shivering, hurt as well for what…what she'd been to him. Just a rag doll. A VERY Crane thing to do.
"I…. kill…. hi….m- e…me…. kill…...m – m- me..."
Raven laid back in the dirt, panting. She let her blood shot eyes catch a droplet, a drip as small as her one sweat trail. The tigers and lions were given their orders as Timmy and Raven were dragged off to a holding cell. No fight left. A trail of warm blood now crusted upon the muddy earth, just as it had begun to first then, rain.
Raven shut her eyes, and imagined hope as it was. In the form of a blue bird, one she'd once cherished more than life itself.
~ Come back, Dick…I'm sorry…just, don't go too far away…~
The tallest gates were shut, and so too had the rain left the world they were in to cry tears of its very own release from a prison of the self.
And a fear, of being loved without pain…
/
Alfred and Babs had not gotten very far, not long enough to gather themselves to beam to the Watchtower.
Dami and Rose….
Hawk woman, GL. Everyone was…
"I'm sorry, Barbie." Wally West shook his head. Jinx was back in Jump with a mission of her own. He'd just stopped here for Barry to see, this.
"We picked up a trace and lost it in the Pacific." GL Looked at the map, then the footage of Rose and Damian being napped by a few of the Court's loyal foot soldiers.
"I don't know if Kate and Cass are still safe…. we didn't have time –
"We'll return in due time, Miss Gordon." Al put a hand on to Bab's shoulder as she wheeled over to see Rose and…she just let her head down. "Bruce is waiting to see us not mess up this time. But, this?? All because of Slade?? WE know the truth, but you have to."
"We know about how Slade Wilson used a cursed spell book to harm Richard and his brothers." Manhunter nodded and knew from so much that Batman had said, that Dick was freed of such a fate once. Yet, now?
"He's also in cahoots with the Scarecrow. From what young Master Damian told us, there is far more destruction in Gotham because of their alliance."
"Deathstroke. The Court…and Crane's mind-altering formulas??" Hawk Woman turned to her allies. "We cannot let this rest as is. I propose we aide the city and find what the boy had of the coor –
"It's at Lazarus Island." Babs interrupted. "Slade killed Ra's and took Talia…He lost her, Dami said. She got out but…Dami is going to be taken back if we don't stop them."
"Cass and Cate must have…I only hope they got the news too. But what else can you do if there is no Bat to lead your little team in stoppin' this threat" Stewart asked Barbara Gordon what she believed they could do, and the answers finally came. "I'm going to amplify the range from here. See if Cass has the gear to talk. If not, we go back but I need one of you so I don't stay grounded."
"I'll go." Hawk woman volunteered. "Bruce would do the same for us." She said to the league.
"Then I will try to find Raven and the others." Man - hunter agreed that an empath would be easier to trace.
"Good call, I'll take to tracking Dami from space here, but you had better keep us up to date if they go underground. You know owls like the dark."
"Very, sir." Alfred sighed. "If I had not been a nocturne of the worst possible nature, I'd not have survived two wars and raising a man who believes a bat showed him the way towards his own "redemption" in this lifetime."
Babs smiled at the butler as he did so in a simpler, more modest way. "Thank you, everyone. Alfred. We'll do it. We'll get them back. Who's with us??"
/
The guards Slade was aware, loved gossip. The news on a certain escapee had traveled past the lips of the first messenger to the last; the guards with Dick's arms in each. The chattered as monkies while Dick pretended to be mellowed. "I heard it! The last Al – Ghul woman ended up leaving to the city of one of her former lovers."
Dick shut his eyes.
Gotham, but why?
"The big bad is telling us that the "man of rage" has a plan to take control of the city's crime but that is not his full plan. SHE I heard, will try to gather an army. If she does, we had better fly to the moon for protection!"
Were they laughing? That was a death far worse, worn in chaos!
"What about the royal slut." Snorted one guard as his hand lifted up Dick's head to pay some mind a minute before they reached the master's quarters.
"Wanna get him riled up until he comes??"
"Put that thought to bed!" The other tutted. "Do you want to die younger than the bat's kids??"
"But…" The knob was pulled as Dick was lifted at his cuffs.
"We're already dead once the JLA get to this part of the island. Rumor has it, we're their next target."
Whispered the snickering guard to his fellow, as the two carelessly tossed Dick onto a hard floor of wood and stone.
"Be good, or no more fucking for the darling pussy – cat, here." The men laughed before slamming the door in Dick's crying face.

JLA is IN!!! This is going to get uglier. We still have Star, Cy was safe from the beasts, and Todd and Gar too. What will the owls try to do to Dami and Rose?? Where did Talia run off to?? And what is in the Al Ghul's basement that had Slade so cheery?? And did Tim just violate Raven while under possession of a demonic succubus?? Find out!
