Stalling
"How did you even get this information Wally? How do you know that the Injustice league is going to steal something from here?" Miss Martian asked, seeming confused.
"I just know okay!?" Wally snapped, watching the door. Dick would be here. They would have to fight. Even if it was pretend..He did not want to hurt his friend.
""Wait..Isn't that Robin?" Artemis hissed as they watched a figure walk towards the door of the building, pulling out a holo-glove and bypassing the security systems systems. "He is a part of this?"
"We will need to stop him." Kaldur frowned as he watched the heavily locked doors open for the other. "This is not good. If there are more, we could blow our cover."
"If it is a fight, I will gladly punch Robin in the Face" Connor added in.
"Shh!" Artemis ducked "Poison Ivy and Klarion!" Artemis pulled Wally down. "This is bad. We need to get help."
"We can handle this on our own" Connor growled. "We do not need help taking down a few bad guys--"
"Lookie here~" A voice cackled. "It seems we have an audience!"
The team froze in horror.
"Yo Joker. We do not have time for this, the systems will not hold long and there will cops here in a matter of minutes. Wayne enterprises is no joke."
The insane clown simply smiled more. "You know what they say: The more the merrier. Ivy if you would."
Vines broke through the concrete, ensnaring the team and lifting them in the air. The team struggling to break free. Robin looked up at the team, trying to hide a grimace when he saw the team, especially Wally. Sure If it was just Ivy and Klarion who came with him on this trip, it would be easier to divert their attention and let the team escape. That was his plan to begin with.However, with a bloodthirsty merciless clowns wanted to join last minute... it would be hard to pull him away from the 'fun.' He needed to act..and fast before he gets his friend killed. Dick slowly moved his hand to the holo-glove, but the action was stopped by a sharp pain in his arm.
"Mortal What are you doing, you already broke into the building." Klarion had his hand raised, Teekl in his other arm While Ivy quickly made robin in the same situation as the team, thorns angled at his face.
The joker turned to face the bird. "What is this? The bird is going against the plan?"
Dick glared "So what? I wanted to see if there was anything else worth stealing. Wayne is filthy rich..there must be some other tech I can use." Robin lied smoothly, glancing back up at the team. "Do you really want to fight in front of the kids?"
"You are a kid too" Artemis growled.
Joker returned his attention to the team"Suppose everyone wants to spoil themselves. Let him go Ivy dear."
"You heard the clown, Tell your freaky children to let go of me before I get the weedkiller.
Poison Ivy glared. "My babies are not weeds!"
Klarion scowled deeply. "Why am I even here? I am bored!" HE glanced over to the young heroes. "What do you think Teekl? Should we have some fun?"
Dick tensed. "DON'T DO IT!" His mouth went off before he could stop himself, and the next thing he knew, the air was stiff and tense. He cleared his throat. "I mean..I have some unfinished business with these idiots."
Joker cackled "Who am I to get in the way of a good revenge story." The Joker pulled out a knife and held it out to the bird. "I will let you have your first pick. It is only fair."
Dick let out a smirk. "Never thought you to be the STABle one."
Joker let out a fit fit of insane laughter. "Hahahahahaha I get it. Little bird you are hilarious!"
Dick stared at the team. He could cut Wally free, he was quick enough to run away... but knowing him, he would stay and try and save his...team. Dick huffed a bit in frustration. Here he was putting his own skin on the line for someone who is too stupid to know what's good for him. He glanced at Wally, who was still squirming trying to break free. "HM...well..it's so hard to choose." He glared back at Artemis who was giving him her best attempt at the bat glare. Wait..a distress signal ..she had one in her quiver. "Mind if I take the archer's arrows? I have been eying them up."
"Don't you dare you little thief!" Artemis snapped at.
Dick walked closer to artemis, holding a knife to her throat. "Guess you were right. I could never change. He used the knife to cut the quiver off, trying to discreetly find the distress signal. " Maybe I should kill you with your own arrows..It would definitely be fun."
"You sick --"
"Ah!" Dick quickly pressed the button before pulling out an an arrow. "I like this one." He pointed it at Artemis. He needed to stall. But the entire league wa looking. "Aw screw it!" He took the knife and started cutting the vines around artemis, causing Poison Ivy to scream.
"What are you doing!?"
"It is not very fun just having them standing here." Dick quickly broke Artemis free and went on to wally , only managing a few vines before a loud gunshot sounded and feeling a sudden white hot pain stabbing into his back. "S...sorry Walls.." Dick winced a bit, it did not take a genius to figure out he was shot by Joker. He pulled out a smoke bomb and threw it against the ground, the air filling with thick black smoke. "Heh... playing hero was not my strong suit..." He glanced at Artemis. "You better keep him safe." Dick gripped the knife and cut free from the vined, handing the knife to Artemis. "Get the rest of them free. I will hold these losers off." Dick pulled out another smoke bomb from his utility belt. "I won't be able to give you much time you better speed it up."
"Why are you doing this?" Artemis grabbed her bow and arrow, pointing it at Robin. "I do not trust you."
"Then don't." Dick scowled "Just get out of here!" Dick felt the warm blood ooze down his shoulder blade. Joker missed his vitals..on purpose he will never know with that insane clown. What he did know is that this was the best shot Wally had to escaping and this blonde was ruining it. The smoke was beginning to clear and Dick cursed quietly..this was not good. He caught a glimpse of yellow in the corner of his eyes. " Uug the things I do for friendship I swear.." he muttered grabbing Artemis by the arm in a harsh matter." I broke you free and you are going to get out of here so help me--" Dick hissed in pain. "Stupid heroes and there stupid eagerness to fight..will be the literal death of me..not asterous..."
"Rob!" Wally shouted.
The smoke cleared completely. Dick's stall time was up. "Get out of here now!"
