"You__ are go___ing_to___ die." I say barely breathing but mustering up enough breath to exaderate the word die.

"Sorry bud, but I think your the one who is going to die right away!" he said. I hated to admit but he was probably right.

"No....." I say with my head slowly bowing down while taking some of my last breaths.

The rest of what happened is pretty much a blur. I remember some bows and arrows, I was thinking it was Speedy but it was a girl with blonde hair. Also to mention, was a green figure, I believe another girl. Batman was there too........ I think, but what got me was, I think, seeing Caldur, Wally and Connor. My head was pretty deluted but I just hope my bluriness was really showing me them.

Thats all I remember, I think.... I passed out, close to death most likely. But I soon woke up.....

~Current~

"Ugghh my head.." I said sitting up too fast, then my head spinned crazily around with an aching pain in chest. I let out a small wheeze as I gasped for air. I slipped a quick smile at least seeing that I no longer needed a sling though.

"Here." said a deep voice beside me. I didn't even flinch knowing it was Batman, who was holding a glass of water out to me.

"Where am I?" tiredly said, thankfully taking the glass of water. The water was cool on my throat that was burning from the previous smoke.

"Your room. How are you feeling?" Batman said standing up off of my chair, turning to face the oppisite wall at my newspaper clippings.

"Well, my head, throat and chest hurt, but I am fine. What about the others?" I said throwing the blanket off of me and swinging my legs off the bed urgently.

"Alive. Just as lucky as you that they made it aswell." he said in a lower voice.

"I thought they died... like that maniac killed my parents..." I looked down at my feet, with memories flooding back in. "What happened to him? Did you catch him?"

Batman stood silent, and shook his head no. My heart stopped, the thug was still on the lose. "The point is Dick, is that you left not obeying my orders." he said turning around.

"Wait.... you knew about him didn't you?" I said as I all realized the truth.

"You weren't ready to know." Batman said in a hushed tone.

"So you thought it was okay not to tell me who killed my parents!" I yelled standing up, trying to keep my balance as I got dizzy again.

"Because I knew you would go after him!" Batman yelled back. "I can't lose you to him." Batman continued but quietly as if he didn't want Robin to hear. But he did.

I took one look at Batman's saddened smile and that was enough to make me leave. I quickly walked out of the room into the hallway towards the bathroom.

I slammed the bathroom door shut and locked it. I walked towards the mirror looking at myself. My mask was still on but barely, it was ripped around the edges, I had a cut lip and one above my eyebrow with a little stained blood. I lifted my hands up and could easily see the rope burn around my wrists and I was still wearing my uniform that was dirty with smoke, dirt and a little blood. My hair was a little crazy and as just as dirty. I let out another cough that wasn't as harsh as before but still a little painful. My shoulder seemed to be doing better as I rotated it around in circles.

Opening the medicine cabinet I saw some Advil painkillers, letting a little smile slip, I took 2, then hopped into the shower, the hot water was nice and getting rid of the scent of smoke was also.

Finally shutting the water off, I dried myself and wrapped the towel around my waist, still glaring at the marks around my wrists, that was probably gonna scar.

Eager to see everyone else, I left towards my room hoping Batman was gone. Lucky for me, he was, and I got dressed and found my spare mask that slid into place perfectly on my face.

Before leaving my dark room, I looked down at a new picture on my bed that wasn't there before, left from Batman I was guessing.

I gasped as I realized that the picture was of my parents and the thug standing arms in arms smiling. They looked as if they were friends.... and on the back was the names, with the thugs name being Alex Quinzel.

I dropped the picture down as it came to my mind, he was Harley Quinns brother...

Since Christmas holidays just started and I didnt have to do homework, this came to mind.

I am sorry for how long I have been taking but life is busy now.

Thanks for staying with me this long!
