"What's all this?"
Zatanna asks to her friends as she and Dick step out of their bedroom and see the table set and their friends doing breakfast.
"Hey! Look who finally decided to get out of the room…"
Wally teases the couple as he helps placing the food on the table and eating some too.
"I hope that you don't mind but we took the liberty to do some grocery shopping and make breakfast"
Kaldur tells his friends as he stops the speedster from eating everything.
"You took too long to get out of your room and since we know that Dick wakes up earlier than any of us, we came to the conclusion that you were on breeding duty and here we are"
The couple smiles and blushes at the archer's words. They were finally in the dinning room with the rest.
"Guys, you shouldn't have…"
Dick pulls the chair for Zee to sit as he realizes that the Team have everything handle.
"C'mon, Dick. Stay whelmed and feel the aster"
The kryptonian puts his hand on Dick's shoulder.
"We have an amazing first day/night at your house, we need to keep going and have an amazing morning as well"
Megan flies the rest of the food to the table. There was pancakes, fruit, juice, cereal, quesadillas and some protein bars.
"And since you guys have the biggest place, this is going to be our new base of operation to have fun and spend quality time"
Rocket comes from the backyard with Pocus on her arms, the hero was feeding the bunny.
"Zatanna, Dick. You have a beautiful garden and your flowers are amazing and well taken care"
Wyynde comments to the couple.
"Thanks. I love my garden, Dick got me all the seeds and as you can see most of them are Asters of different colours"
"Alfred knows his greenery as well. She tried to have something like this back in our apartment and she set a greenhouse at the rooftop of our former building but know she has way more space…"
"And between us, Alec has been helping me a lot"
"Well, that explains how you got them so beautiful. I'm guessing that you bring them here since you bought the house"
The heroes were enjoying the food and company.
"Indeed. I did use some magic for that tho. I left some on the greenhouse for the persons that lives there but I brought my favorites"
Zatanna notices how the archer starts scanning the room.
"Where's the T-Rex?"
"In Shadow Crest…I'm not having a freaking dinosaur in my living room"
Zatanna responds as she takes a bite of her pancake.
"I can't still believe that you beat Batman"
Will comments.
"And Red Hood, Jason is such a bruiser"
The blonde was impressed with her friend's skills.
"What can I say? I have the right motivation"
The man just shrugs as he acts like it was nothing.
"Now, that I remember…before you fight against Jason started, Tanna pull you to the side, what did you do to him?"
They turn their gaze towards the sorceress.
"Thanks, Wally"
The magician glares the speedster and Wally didn't know why.
"Yes, thanks Wally. She still has to keep her promise"
"What did she promise you?"
The martian asks.
"Surely, it's something freaky"
Raquel adds.
"No, she promise me that she will go on patrol and League's mission with me for a week wearing a Nightwing like suit. She's going to be my sidekick for a week"
Dick kisses his blushing wife on the cheek.
"Speaking of sidekicks…how is Damian doing as your Robin?"
Aquaman inquires.
"Really good. He's still rough around the edges, he has to work more with his empathy towards the person that we are helping but everything is working out just fine"
"No offense to you Will and Artemis but I was impressed that Oliver put such a good fight against Damian"
Conner did not expect the result of the fight. Robin beat Green Arrow but the archer did enough damage to the kid to make him unable to fight against Red Hood and Nightwing at the same time.
"None taken. We are impressed as well…I mean if Canary was the one fighting, I'm sure that she'd have wipe the floor with your little brother"
"Just Damian? I'm sure that she would've beat me and Jay"
"You have to teach me some of those moves, bird brains"
"Set the date, Arty. Also, I'm working on my new suit, I'm including some stuff from the suit the Court gave it to me, the material is super resistant and have some pretty impressive tools"
Zatanna was smiling at that. She was always happy when Dick upgraded his equipment and now he was getting a better protected suit and she was helping with the new design.
"Dick, what was your name under them? Just Talon? Because Malcolm was the Talon and William was Owlman, did you have any special name?"
"Yeah, The Gray Son"
"That's stupid"
"Says the guy that call his wolf wolf"
Conner rubs the back of his head.
"I'm concerned about Owlman and Talon. They are now under one of Waller's playfields. We should worry about the Suicide Squad"
Zatanna smiles at the Atlantean.
"Don't worry, Kaldur. My husband here can protect us"
"Ughh"
"C'mon. We are eating"
"Alright class. We are having a special class today with special help"
The sorceress tells her students, they were on the streets of New York City.
"What is it? Are we going to make friend again with magical creatures?"
Mary crossed her arms in boredom.
"Noup. Guys!"
Out of the sudden, Red Hood was behind Mary, Tim behind Trace, Damian behind Khalid and Nightwing behind Zatanna.
"What's up, Mary? Long time not see"
The Shazam user jumps at hearing Jason's voice behind her.
"Hey, 13"
"Hi, Robin"
"You are so careless and untrained"
Khalid looks nervously at Robin (Damian).
"What's up, gorgeous?"
Dick pecks his wife's lips.
"We are going to play catch. I want you to use your magic to catch these Robins. As you have guessed already, Mary you are going to try to catch Red Hood, Trace catches Tim and Khalid does the same with Damian"
"Pfft. I was expecting a challenge, I don't know why I'm here"
Jason pretends to be annoyed at the task at hand.
"You are here because you love your sister-in-law"
"You are my only sister-in-law. Little gremlin here is single and the replacement is just dating the Amazon"
Jason retorts.
"C'mon, Jay. Help us out and I'll grant you the rematch"
The second Robin relaxes.
"What about you, Zatanna? Are you going to try to catch Nightwing?"
The raven beauty looks at her lover after her protégée's question.
"Gotta lead with the example, Zee"
That was the man last words before the four of them thrown smoke bombs and disappeared.
"Let's go class, we have to catch our Robin!"
The sentinels split and goes into different directions looking for the prey.
Khalid vs Damian
"Alright, Khalid. Focus in the environment, let's do what Zatanna told us"
Khalid takes deep breaths, gathering all the information he has on the newest Robin; he's smart but cocky, skilled but full of himself.
"What the-"
Khalid's were interrupted by a flash grenade that make him step back and fall on his ass and groan loudly.
"What was that?! Aren't we suppose to pursuit you?!
The doctor screams.
"You have to catch us but we were told that we should put some resistance and test your skills under pressure"
As expected, Damian answered his question. Kent's nephew uses his magic and tries to bind Damian down with the weed nearby but the ninja easily got away.
"Dammit, so close!"
"Keep telling yourself that!"
Khalid sighs before running after the kid.
Trace vs Tim
"Alright, Trace. You got this"
Leroy chirps and hits her with his tail.
"Sorry, sorry. We got this…do you sense anything?"
The iguana starts moving his head, scanning the place and sticks his tongue out into one direction for Trace to follow.
"Alright. Here goes nothing"
13 uses her urban magic and with the fire escape stairs traps a shadow that was jumping between rooftops.
"Gotcha' Robin"
The girl exclaims as she happily approaches her prey only to find a drone.
"What the-"
Leroy warns Trace of the incoming as she quickly uses her bad luck magic. Tim's grapple unhooks making the young hero fall into a dumpster. Once again, the girl rushes to see if she got him and when she peeks the container, she just sees garbage.
"I'm charging you with the dry-clean!"
"Sorry!"
Trace runs off after her Robin.
Mary vs Jason
"C'mon, Red Hood. We both know that we want to do this face to face…"
The magic user waits for an answer that never arrives.
"Alright then. Wisdom of Solomon!"
Mary access to the ley lines of magic. She remembers the missions with Jason when they were together on the Team. And idea crosser her mine.
"Strength of Hercules!"
Mary gets to the rooftop in one leap and spots Jason watching her from a couple of buildings away.
"Speed of Mercury!"
The magic user starts running and jumping, going after her target. She almost catches him but Jason jumps, rotates himself to face her and shoots her with his rubber bullets and then throws a flash grenade, leaving Mary temporarily blind. When Mary recovers her sight, it was too late and crashes with a wall.
"C'mon, Mary. Show me the Stamina of Atlas, I know that this didn't hurt you"
The second Robin taunts the girl from above and Mary growls.
"You are on!"
Zatanna vs Dick
"Your students still have a lot to learn but they are on the right direction. Khalid is really talented…why wasn't he part of the Team?"
Zatanna flies from above watching her students carefully.
"He was too focused on his studies. Losing Kent did quite a number on him and give up magic but he told me that he had a dream a few months ago about Egypt, his magic and his uncle. He wants to learn more about that and what that means"
She looks down to a building close to her and spots her bird.
"And he couldn't have find a better mentor…"
She smiles at him.
"Are we flirting or doing this?"
"We can do both but what about a little wager? If you catch me, I make dinner if you don't then you make dinner"
"Deal but I'm must warn you that I'm really hungry and more if you make me chase you for long, so you better give up already"
Zatanna rushes to her husband that jumped off the edge of the building. When she looked down, she didn't saw any sign of him but soon enough she hears him cackle.
"Too slow"
Somehow, Nightwing was a couple of buildings ahead of her.
"I'm going to show you who is slow! Dlofdnilb!"
Dick's eyes got covered by a black cloth but that didn't make him stop or slow down.
"C'mon, Zee. I'm a bat, I don't need to see to know where I'm going"
After pissing her off by keeping the fold a little longer, he decides to take it off.
"Then what about this?! Eci roolf!"
As Dick lands, the floor was covered by ice, making him lose some stability for a few seconds and that's all she needed to grab him.
"Got ya"
In the last second Dick let's himself fall to the floor on his back. He pulls his eskrima stick to stop himself, barely dodgin Zatanna's assault.
"I'm peckish for some Italian, babe. You better bring your A-game on the kitchen"
Grayson throws a smoke bomb before disappearing.
"Stupid Ninja"
"I hear that!"
"But I love you"
"That's more like it!"
She rolls her eyes before continuing with her pursuit. She levitates herself higher to check on her students and watches them running into the same direction following their own bat.
"Wait! You are going to-"
They were so focus on the person in front of them that didn't realize that they were walking into a trap. The three magic user cast a spell onto the guys but they dodge in the last second making the Sentinels hit each other.
"Watch it Khalid!"
"Me?! Trace attacked me first!"
"But that was because Mary throw energy at me!"
The Robins laughs at their friends distraught before anything else happened, she decided to step in.
"Ezeerf!"
All bats were unable to move not matter how much they struggle.
"Aren't you missing someone?"
Damian asks the woman.
"No, I'm not. Sdnib!"
Nightwing was trying to sneak in her but was stopped by Zatanna's spell. Dick was caught by multiple ropes.
"I know all your tricks, honey"
"Please, I let myself get caught"
She sways her hips towards her prey.
"And why would you do that?"
"To be close to you, of course. These ropes are kinda tight, is it kinky Tuesday already?"
He smirks at her and she smacks him.
"We have kids here, naughty boy"
She cups his face and ghost his lips.
"Someone kill me again, please"
The couple gets back to reality and Zatanna releases the Bats.
"Aright, tell me. What did you learn from this?"
"That I need to hit Red Hood hard to knock him down"
Mary throws daggers at Jay.
"That they are smarter than us…"
Trace rubs her arm.
"And more experienced…"
Khalid puts his hands on his hoodie.
"I mean you are not wrong…"
Nightwing tells them.
"We have been on this game longer than you and we need to trust in our instincts and that's what you guys should do"
"Nightwing is right. You were focus in the wrong details that you didn't saw the bigger picture and ended up attacking each other"
"But you didn't tell us that they could attack us…"
Khalid protest.
"No, I did not. Also, I didn't tell you that you couldn't work as a Team and help each other like they did. Of course, they are going to be better at working as a Team because they share the same brain cell"
"Hey!"
The bats complain.
"But this was a nice opportunity to lean into each other. We are a Team, there are fights that we need to fight alone but there are others that getting help from friends isn't going to hurt"
The Sentinels look to the ground.
"Look. Khalid, you were on the right path by focusing and calm yourself but at the first chance that Damian got to break your balance…he did"
The mentor turns to Trace.
"Traci, you did well by leaning on Leroy and you used you magic amazingly but after realizing that you didn't trapped him in the first try, you started to doubt and it got worse the second time…Leroy warned you about the trap but you were too worry about failing again. Trust in you like I trust you"
Then it was Mary's turn.
"Mary. You use the right tools in the wrong order, sometimes you need to act fast but you also need to take your time and asses the situation. You use your wisdom and your experience with working previously with Jason but then you tried to out muscle him. A deep breath can always make the difference"
The students analyze her words.
"Dickhead!"
"What's up, Hood?"
"You hit the jackpot with her"
"Believe me, I know. How things are going with Artemis?"
Jason looks away.
"I don't know what you are talking about…"
The sky turns a dark shade of purple in front of the magic users' eyes. A murder of crows start flying in all directions. They have never seen so many of them in their life.
"Nightwi-"
The Sentinels watch how the Batboys were frozen on their place, in fact everyone but them weren't moving, not even the animals and cars.
"Zatanna? What's the meaning of this?"
Trace starts shaking feeling the dark magic.
"I don't know but it kinda taste like really old magic"
The sky goes back to normal and the Robins keep talking.
"You know that you are in a family full of detectives, right?"
Tim starts picking up on his big brother.
"We all saw the way you two were looking at each other and what did she tell you before our fight?"
Dick notices how, just like him with Zatanna, Jason got into their fight with extra energy after the Amazon whispered something to him.
"None of your business"
Jason wasn't about to tell them that she promise him to put her Wonder Woman costume for him if he beat his older brother. She did it regardless.
"Dick!"
The bats stops their convo as the older son feels his wife nerves.
"What is it, Zee?"
"Magic, very old and dark. We need to do something"
"I did not feel anything"
"Because you are not a magic user, shorty"
"You want to taste my fists, Drake?"
"Hey! Focus!"
The Robins stop their nonsense, it was weird for them to hear Dick screaming at them like that. They know that he only does it when it's something serious.
"I need to check on something. I'm going to Shadow Crest and you go to the Watchtower, we might need a lot of help"
"Got it"
Zatanna kisses him before pulling off a key and putting it in on the middle of the street, making the mansion appear, the Sentinels follows her and Zatara's State disappears
"Alright. Robin, inform the Outsiders to be on standby, Red Hoo-"
"I'm calling the Outlaws"
"Robin, we are going to the Watchtower"
