Episode/Chapter 17 - Cave Raid 2.0 Part 2

"Here." Oracle led the three girls into a secret room in the cave, "I'll coordinate from here. Can you two maybe go out and fight him while I try to unlock the lockdown?"

"Yeah! This'll be a piece of pecan pie!" Batgirl said as she cracked her knuckles.

"Destiny, you'll stay here, right?" Oracle asked, but she noticed Destiny was in the corner, and she had changed into her superhero uniform.

"Can I go out and fight with them?" Destiny questioned.

"Are you able to, Destiny?" Oracle asked.

"I don't go by Destiny. In this outfit, I'm Falcon." Falcon said, "and yes. I'm here to fight with the team, am I not?"

Oracle stared at her in shock, then nodded,

"Right. Then go ahead. I'll see if I can find some back-up, call in Zatanna. Batgirl, you're squad leader. We'll keep in touch with the comm, so stay alert."

"Alright. Let's go!" Batgirl gestured for Speedy and Falcon to follow, and they ran out into the hallway.

"The cave is big. Are we going to let him find us, or are we going to find him?" Falcon questioned.

"Do you speak with questions all the time?" Speedy asked.

"No." Falcon replied, "I don't. It's just... force of habit... My dad always asked--"

"Shh..." Batgirl shushed them as they peeked around a corner into the mission briefing room. They heard an explosion in the training room, and so they ran there.

As soon as they got there, however, the explosion was a handful of smoke bombs.

"Who uses this many smoke bombs?!" Falcon coughed as they all tried to peer through the smoke.

"Wait, is there someone else here?!" Speedy asked.

"Just because you filled the room with smoke doesn't mean I can't find you, Brat!!" they heard Klarion screech. They saw his red balls of magic in his hands, and he was moving further away from the door as he moved to the corner of the large training room, but the girls stayed in the doorway. Suddenly, a figure jumped down right in front of them, covered Speedy's mouth before she could scream, and shoved them all out of the doorway.

"Move, move. We'll see if we could lock him in there." The figure said.

"ROBIN?!?!?! YOU'VE BEEN HERE THE WHOLE TIME?!" Batgirl shouted softly, "WHY DIDN'T YOU FIND US SOONER?!"

"I was going after the kill." Robin replied as he shut and locked the door.

"Is there anyone else here?" Speedy asked.

"No. We're the only ones. We're all on our own." Robin replied as he turned to look at each of them. He stopped and stared at Falcon,

"Who's this?" both Robin and Falcon asked at the same time, then they just stared at each other.

"Uh, Falcon, this is Robin. Robin, this is Falcon. She's the daughter of Huntress. She's visiting for the day." Batgirl introduced.

"Well, nice to meet you Falcon." Robin nodded, "but it just so happens you probably visited on the wrong day."

"Is there a problem with that? I enjoy fighting. Martial arts is my specialty, and it's fun, isn't it?" Falcon questioned.

"She sure asks a lot of questions, doesn't she..." Robin said as the girls followed him through the mission briefing room.

"Yeah. Wait, we need to tell Oracle you're here. Oracle?" Batgirl called into the comm.

"Yep. Gotcha." Oracle replied, "so you got Klarion?"

"Temporarily. Who knows how long he'd be able to stay in that room. He is the Lord of Chaos, after all..." Robin shrugged. Suddenly, the door was smashed open and Klarion and Teekl stepped out of the smoke.

"Is that really the best you could do?" Klarion smirked. He held out his fingers and pointed them at the four of them, then started shooting at them with red bolts. But they were all skilled martial artists, so they easily dodged them.

"You have to have a legitimate reason to be here, Klarion." Robin said.

"I do! I'm here to see someone, but he doesn't seem to be here..." Klarion said as he continued shooting bolts.

"Who?! Tell us who you're after!" Batgirl demanded.

"Oh, no, I'm not here to hurt them." Klarion denied, and Teekl meowed, "I'm not giving anything away, what are you thinking, you stupid cat!"

"Well, if you won't talk, then we'll make you talk!" Speedy said as she took an arrow from her quiver and drew it back.

"My business isn't with any of you! I'm here for the speedster!" Klarion yelled.

"Wait, Flash? Kid Flash?" Batgirl asked?"

"He's after Impulse." Falcon answered, her eyes closed.

"How do you even know who he is?!" Robin stared at her.

"I... I can explain later..." Falcon said.

"And he's not here? Then my visit is pointless." Klarion said a she turned his back on them, but Teekl meowed and hissed at the team, "you're right, Teekl..." Klarion smirked as he turned back to them, "none of them have superpowers. We could still take them out!"

Suddenly, Klarion held out both his hands and directed red lightning bolts at Batgirl and Speedy. Batgirl screamed, then fell on the ground, unconscious, but Speedy dodged it and shot her arrows at Klarion.

"Really?" Klarion cackled evilly as he was able to stop each arrow, then direct them back at her. Speedy gasped and dodged each arrow, but one of her explosive arrows hit the ground in front of her, exploded, and it threw her back and made her hit her head on the wall behind her.

"Now, the two birds." Klarion turned to Robin and Falcon.

"Robin?! What's happening?!" Oracle asked.

"Klarion's looking for Impulse. Batgirl and Speedy are down, and it's just me and Falcon." Robin replied as he and Falcon started dodging Klarion's bolts, "Falcon, get back to Oracle, I'll take care of Klarion." Robin turned to Falcon and put his hand on her shoulder.

"But, what about you?!" Falcon asked.

"I'll be fine. Just go." Robin said, and she ran.

"Aw, you two are so adorable..." Klarion smirked, "I'm surprised a mindless boy like you could get a girlfriend!"

"She's not my girlfriend!" Robin yelled angrily.

"Now it's just you and me now, Squirt?" Klarion laughed as he started glowing red. He held his hands up and a red ball of dark magic started forming in his hands.

"Just you and me, Klarion." Robin said as he pulled out his sword.

"Not for long!" Klarion cackled as he threw the giant ball at Robin, who expertly used his sword and sliced right through the ball. As the ball burst into tiny red particles, Robin ran through them and up to Klarion.

"Oh no you don't!" Klarion said as he held out his hand onto Robin's chest, then sent a charge of his black magic through Robin's body like an electric shock.

Robin yelled out in pain, then fell onto the ground in front of Klarion.

"No!!" Falcon shouted as she ran out next to him and felt his pulse, which was still weakly beating.

"Love... Such a sad, sad thing. You'll come to understand it as well, Young Padawan." Klarion shook his head slowly, "you are the newbie, no? I'll leave you be, then." Klarion said as he started to walk off.

"No. We're not done yet." Falcon said as she stood up.

"I'm warning you, you don't want to get on my bad side. You've never met me." Klarion turned to her, hands on his hips.

"I've never met you, but I know so much about you already." Falcon said as she peered at him, almost as if looking through him. Suddenly, her yellow eyes started glowing, and she started floating. Klarion started stepping back a little as Falcon started floating towards him. Klarion started shooting her with some of his bolts, but they were completely ineffective. She flew up to him and put both her hands on his shoulder. Then the next thing that happened really scared Klarion. Falcon closed her eyes, and her face disappeared.

"What the heck is going on right now?!" Klarion shrieked.

"The real question is what is going on with you? You don't see it, but don't you know I have the ability to read through you?" Falcon questioned, "this isn't even the full range of my powers. So if you know what's best for you, you leave immediately."

"How?!" Klarion asked, "who are you?!"

"Me? That's a good question. I'm just a 15 year-old girl with my mom's looks and abilities. But secretly, I have my dad's powers, too." Falcon said, "I have super intelligence. I tend to ask questions a lot. I can recall past events, before I was even born, and I can see into the future." Falcon answered, "and I see your plan here. I see why you're after Bart Allen."

"Okay, that's creepy..." Klarion muttered.

"Which is why I'm not going to stop you." Falcon said.

Klarion stared at Falcon in shock, nodded, and picked Teekl up, "it was nice meeting you... We'll see each other again soon, I'm sure! Haha!!" Klarion cackled as he snapped his finger, and a portal appeared and swallowed him up, taking him to who knows where.

Falcon nodded, then gasped as her face returned, and she fell onto the ground from extreme exhaustion.

"Guys?! What's happening?!" Oracle asked on the comm, but since no one responded, she went out and checked on them. 

"Cave lockdown has been aborted." The cave computer said as the cave's entrances unlocked, and Justice Leaguers started arriving via Zeta tubes, but only to find Batgirl, Speedy, Robin, and Falcon unconscious and Oracle by their sides.
