Teen Titans: Old Wounds pt.2

The sun was starting to set on Jump City.

From one of the alleyways a green dog sniffed about as it crossed from one street to the other. Seeing no signs of the villains, Beast Boy gave the signal, making the others hurry over before being seen by anyone including civilians. Once the all regrouped, BB changing back to his normal form, Robin went ahead and lead them further on.

“Does someone want to clue me in on why we’re not heading back to the Tower?” BB asked.

“Bad guys are trying to hunt us down.” Cy began. “Where’s the first place you think they’re going to look? A cruddy back alley of the big T-shaped building?”

Beast Boy shrugged, understanding now, before Raven asked “And exactly where are we going now?”

“A hidden bunker Cyborg and I built a couple years ago.” Robin explained. “Just as we’d finished building the tower, we installed it in case the tower was ever compromised.”

“What if they should discover the whereabouts of this place?” Starfire asked.

“The only ones who knew about it were me and Robin.” Cyborg explained. “And we never put any maps or schematics on the Tower’s computers.” He pointed to the cyber half of his face and said “It’s all up here. Nice and tight.”

Robin lead the team to the end of the alley where an old dumpster stood. As they reached it all of them heard something from behind.

It sounded like a can or bottle being knocked over. All turned and stood ready to attack whatever was there, only to see nothing at all. They all scanned about for any trace of someone hiding nearby. Still nothing.

Raven, being the farthest back, took a few steps forward before something leapt from a nearby trash can, making her yelp in fear. It was a rat, a very familiar rat.

“Little Robin!” Starfire exclaimed before kneeling down and waiting for him to run into her arms. “You have returned. And you are unharmed.”

Raven got to her feet while seeing Starfire hug the little rodent, making her say “How touching.” In her unenthusiastic tone.

Robin shook his head before turning back to the dumpster. The others all watched as he took out his communicator, making a small secret panel slid up from the dumpster. He put the communicator in and a scanner activated. A few seconds later and it made a ping sound.
Robin took his communicator back and all watched as the dumpster moved to the side and the wall behind it opened up to reveal a hidden doorway. Robin looked back and indicated for them to follow, going in first before everyone followed. Cyborg was the last to enter and took one final look to make sure no one had seen them or any of the villains were nearby. All was clear so he closed the door, making everything replace itself and leaving no trace.  

The passage opened to a stair case which lead down for a few minutes, eventually reaching the small but fairly sizable bunker. It had the same tech as in the tower, set up with a monitor screen, a small kitchen area, a couch, and a desk with a separate computer.

As they all entered and looked about, BB said “Whoa. Nice little place. Wish I’d have known sooner. I could’ve thrown a sweet party in here.”

“the whole point of this place it that it’s NOT found out.” Robin stated before walking over to the computer screen.

The others were a bit taken back by that remark before Cyborg went over as well. He typed in a few things before seeing information he’d been looking for.

“Tower’s security is still up.” He began. “No reports of any break-ins or attempts.” He looked up to Robin and said “Look like your friends knew you well enough to know you weren’t heading back there either.”
Robin narrowed his eyes before walking over to the monitor. Cy said to himself “It was a joke.”

BB walked over to him and said “I think he’s in one of those ‘not in the mood for any jokes’ moods. You know?”

Robin walked over to the middle of the couch and sat there, Starfire already sitting on the right end. He took out the black glove and looked at it in silence. The others walked towards him, BB taking a seat to his left, Cyborg standing behind him, and Raven standing on the end farthest from Starfire and her rat.

“So what do we do now?” Raven asked Robin, who only kept looking at the glove.

Starfire leaned over and asked “Robin?” still no answer.

“Hey, c’mon, Rob.” BB said. “We could really use some of your leader skills right about now.”

He finally looked up and looked at all of them before saying “I honestly don’t know what to do.” He looked back down at the glove and continued with “I never even thought that they would come here, of all places.”

“This ‘Black Glove’ group you mentioned?” Cy asked.

“Of this ‘Simon Hurt’?” Star added.

“Especially that.” Robin said.

Raven sighed and said “How about some explaining to start off? Maybe THEN we can figure something out.”

Robin nodded before leaning back in his seat and began explaining with “The Black Glove is a criminal organization I’d been dealing with for a long time in my hometown. It was led by a former psychologist turned criminal mastermind; Doctor Simon Hurt. Hurt began a hostile takeover of many of the other gangs in the city before I helped to bring him down. That first time however I’d thought he’d died in a fire that was caused during the fight. For almost an entire year there was no sign of the Black Hand. Not until they seemed to rise up again, and with Hurt someone still alive. The next time we’d brought them down, I saw with my own eyes that Hurt didn’t make it. I chased him to the top of his hideout. We struggled....and he fell. I tried to catch him but it was too late....”

Starfire put her hand on his shoulder to try and comfort him while BB asked “Are you sure he might not have made it that time?”

Robin shook his head while saying “I really don’t know now. I saw him fall of and through one of the docks and right into the water. We tried searching, but we never DID find a body. That was a few months before I left and came here.”

“And now he’s suddenly come back again.” Raven stated. “This Simon Hurt almost sounds like an immortal.”

“Given all the crazy stuff we’ve seen, that’s not that surprising.” Cyborg added.

“So what about all those bad guys we were running from?’ BB asked.

“All villains from Gotham.” Robin began. “And all with something personal against me, or who probably just want whatever money was offered. It’s not the first time the Black Glove’s done this.” He looked back to the glove and said “Hurt even left his calling card.”

“Then let’s find this Hurt guy and put some real hurting to him!” Cy said, smacking his fists together.

“But we have no idea where he is.” Robin retorted. “He could be a thousand miles away for all we know.”

“Then perhaps we should confront your old advisories and see if they know.” Starfire suggested, not realizing that Little Robin slipped away from her and was scurrying off.

Raven noticed this however but only raised an eyebrow to this before hearing BB say “Yeah. We can take them. All we need’s a good old fashioned Robin strategy and we’re all set. What do you say?” he asked Robin.

Robin perked up a bit and smiled, seeing the confidence his team still had in him before standing and saying “Alright, here’s an idea. We...”

Before he could finish there came a tremor from above. It shook the room a bit making everyone look up.

“Uh, where was this place built under?” Raven asked.

“Some old disco/ restaurant place. It’s abandoned though” Cy answered.

The heard more rumbling and another tremor before BB suggested “Maybe it’s some old folks who can’t let disco die?”

As if on answer, the a hole exploded from the roof above them, making the Titans jump or move away before the rubble and debris could fall on them while on the couch. They all recovered and looked up to see how large the hole was before something was thrown down.

“Candy gram!” the familiar voice of Black Spider called before they all saw it was one of Firefly’s grenades.  

All the Titans looked shocked seeing the grenade, not knowing what to do. Robin was the only one to act fast, carrying Starfire with him over towards Raven and the others.

********************

From above the villains all stood on the street and watched as the inside of the building where the Titans hidden bunker was lite up from the grenade’s explosion. The building suddenly tumbled down and all smirked as they saw it collapse.

“And that’s how you kill disco.” Spider said.

Firefly holstered his flamethrower over his shoulder and said “Guess that takes care of the kid and his clubhouse buddies. Let’s go collect our fee.”

“Hold up.” Orca said. “I want to be sure we got him.” She looked over to the others and said “We bring back a body and Hurt will be sure to pay us. We come back with nothing and the kid could still be alive.”

The Copperhead Twin looked at each other before looking to Orca and nodding in agreement.  Firefly looked over to Black Spider who shrugged before all walked over to the rubble of the hideout to start searching.

Just as they began to search a small black portal made from Raven’s magic disappeared, Firefly catching sight of it.

He growled before saying “They got away again!”

“Heh.” Spider said, crouching down near the hole. “Maybe they should change their name to the Teen Houdinis.”

“Shut up!” Orca snapped. “What do we do now?”

The Copperhead’s looked worried as well, giving Firefly a concerned look.
 
“You two aren’t helping!” he snapped. “Let me think on....”

Suddenly a communicator inside his helmet pinged. He looked to the others who gave mixed looks of concern and annoyance before he answered.

“Yeah?” he answered.

From the other end, Simon Hurt said “I’ve just seen your little fireworks display all the way from here. I assume they’re dead?”

Firefly groaned before saying “Not exactly. The got away.”

Simon only chuckled and said “You see? Not so easy to clip the little bird’s wings is it?”

“You seem pretty cheery about us not knocking him off.” Firefly continued. “If you’re so sure about him dying why hire us in the first place?”

“Because I know you want him dead just as badly as I do. You may think the money I just a perk, my pyromaniac friend, but you and the others mainly want to see him dead and buried for all the trouble he and his partner caused you. That’s how I know you’ll get him right were we’ll want him.”

*********************

As they talked, none realized that the Titans were on a roof close to where the villains were, looking down on them.

Cyborg was using a scanner on his arm to hear all that was being said between Hurt and Firefly.

“Just keep doing your job.” Hurt said to Firefly. “You’ll get your money, and we’ll ALL have what he want in the end.”

While Cyborg still scanned the others, having heard everything, were talking among each other.

“That was definitely Simon Hurt.” Robin said. “I’d know that voice anywhere.”

“He acts as though all of this is some cruel game to play.” Starfire said, angered. “How can he play with our lives like this?”

“What I want to know his how he found the hideout.” BB exclaimed. “I thought the place was safe.”

“Perhaps they placed a tracking device of some kind?” Starfire suggested.

“Not a chance.” Cyborg said, still monitoring the villains. “My scanners and sensors would have detected any tracing signals. However they found us was something else. Something I couldn’t detect.”

“Then nowhere is safe.” Raven said. “They keep finding us however they do until this entire city is upside down and find us.”

“No.” Robin suddenly said. He stood and continued with “Not  ‘us’. Just me.”

“Say what?” BB asked.

“What do you mean?” Starfire asked as well.

“They only want me.” He continued. “Hurt wants ME. The rest of you are just n the way, that’s why they’ll take you out as well.” He took a deep breath and said “I’ll go. You all find somewhere to stay safe. But I’ ending this.”


He started to walk off before Starfire floated in front and said “You will not surrender. I will not allow it!”

He narrowed his eyes and her before saying “Move out of the way, Starfire. I’m not letting anyone else get in danger because of me. Especially not you.”

“Maybe not, Robin.” BB said, walking behind him. “But we’re not about to let you throw yourself to the bad guys just to take a big one for the team. That’s why we’re a team: we stick together.”

“But you don’t know what these guys can do.” He said, turning back to him. “They’re all experienced. They’ve taken on some of the best out there.”

“Well, as Beast Boy would say,” Raven began, walking towards him “maybe it’s about time they tried the rest.”

Robin looked between the three of them and said “Guys, look, I appreciate this, but...”

“Robin.” Starfire stopped him, putting her hand on his face and making him look at her. “You brought us together in order to be a team. And being a team, being friends, even a close friend, means not disappointing your other friends. We refuse to abandon you, so I refuse to let you abandon us.”

He looked and saw how serious her eyes were before looking back to the others. They were just as serious as well.

He sighed and said “You guys really know how to be stubborn, don’t you?” with a smirk.

“No more than you tend to get.” Raven added with a smile.

“Face it.” BB began “We stick together like peanut butter and nacho cheese in a sandwich.”

Robin smirked again before Cyborg said “Yo. Guys. Over here. Quick.” Making them scramble over to him.

“What’s up? Are they gone?” BB asked.

“No.” Cy began. “But Hurt and Firefly just finished their little talk. They talked for a minute before someone else called them.”

They looked and saw Firefly talking through his communicator again before hearing who he was talking to.

“What is it?” Firefly asked.

“I thought you should know I’ve found them again.” The person said.

Robin perked up before saying  to Cyborg “Trace that signal. Find out who it is and where they are!”

“On it.” Cy said before going to work.

As he did they listened further as Firefly said “You never cease to amaze. Where are they?”

“Try looking up.”

The Titans all suddenly looked in surprise before the villains all looked up to where they were standing.

“Oh crud...” BB said.

Those who’s faces they could see smirked at this before the Titans only stood ready to fight.

Cyborg looked at his arm, seeing the uploading process begin, before saying “I need five minutes for the signal to lock onto the source.”

“Then we make as much time as possible.” Robin said as they backed up. “Titans MOVE!”

With that they all began running opposite from the villains, they giving chase the minute they ran.

Starfire, Raven and BB, in the form of an eagle, flew while Robin and Cyborg leapt from rooftop to rooftop.

“Any idea who that was who let them know?” Raven asked.

“It sounded familiar.” Robin said “It sounded like...”

Before he could finish a flash of fire shot over his head. They looked back to see Firefly flying after them, Black Spider right behind and leaping nimbly after them. Robin tossed a few explosives back while Starfire and Raven fired volleys of magic and starbolts. Both villains proved to be very adaptable at avoiding the attacks.

Cyborg checked his scanner and said “Three more minutes!”

They all looked ahead to see the Copperhead Twins jumping up from another roof and blocking them from going on Still running Robin looked up to Raven and Starfire, who nodded before looking back to the twins and back to the one chasing them.

“Drop!” he, Cyborg and BB drop down instead of jump to the next roof.

Raven and Starfire did as well, or rather flew down, but both looked back up as the villains were about to follow. Starfire gave two large starbolts to each roof, sending the villains flying back, while Raven created a shield to cover them from the debris that fell.

All landed safely on the ground before looking up to see the villains weren’t following them. Robin looked to all an nodded before Cyborg heard a ping from his scanner.

“Got the trace.” He said. He looked at the info and said “Looks like it’s coming from...”

Suddenly Orca’s hands burst from underneath and grabbed Robin’s ankles. He let out a yelp as he was pulled under.

“Robin!” Starfire shouted.

*********************

Robin found himself underneath the street’s in the sewers.

He fell face first into the murky sewer water before being grabbed by the back of his neck and hoisted up to come face to face with Orca herself. She held him by the head with both hands and growled, revealing her teeth.

As he struggled Robin said “You....seemed really invested....in killing me....Orca. Why so much tension?”

“It’s not about killing you, bird for brain.” She said, gripping his head tightly. “It’s the money. I need it! “

The...aquarium not hiring anymore?” he joked.

She roared and slammed him against a wall before saying “I’m not in it just for profit, like Black Spider, or for the fun like the Twins. I need that money. Look at me! I’m a monster!”

“I know....your story.” He groaned a bit. “You were just...and enthusiastic marine biologist. You got your Ph.D. You helped animals and even the underprivileged and homeless. You were a good person once. And then you tried a radical new treatment to heal yourself after an accident. With Orca spinal tissue.” He could see as her face seemed to calm a bit as he talked. “It had a drastic change on you and it ruined you. And so you turned to crime to get what you needed to get yourself back to normal.” She still held him but seemed a bit more touched by his words. “I know someone a lot like you, Dr. Balin. Someone who lost so much and would do anything to make their life seem right again. But this isn’t the way. None of it is. You’re right. You’re not like those others. Just let me help you.”

She closed her eyes, a small tear coming down her check, before looking back at him with a more angered look. “I’m sorry. But the only one who I know can help me is myself!”

She reared her fist to punch his head in, but Robin pulled two smoke bombs from his belt, one in each hand, and slammed them against her head. The impact of the explosions mixed with the sudden spill of gas into her nose and gills made her let go and start coughing.
Robin took the advantage and landed a hard kick to her jaw, making her stumble back and hit the wall. Robin stumbled back a bit from the sensation of being pounded against a wall before Orca recovered and roared, lifting both her fists up to smash him.

Before she could a smashing sound was heard overhead. Both looked up before a pile of rubble came crashing down over Orca. She was buried in it, only her head and left arm sticking out, before Robin looked up to see Starfire and Cyborg dropping down.
 
She rushed over and hugged him while saying “You are alright!”

He took a few deep breaths, seeing BB and Raven jumping down too, before saying “Yeah. You came just in time too.”

BB looked over at Orca and said “Whoa. Right on the target. Nice work, Star.”
“I’ll let the police know where she is.” Cy said.

“Just make sure they’re gentle with her.” Robin said, looking a bit sad at Orca. He looked back to the others and asked “Where’d the rest of them go?”

“We had to lose them a few blocks away.” BB explained.

“We were lucky.” Raven added.

“And the signal?” He asked, looking to Cyborg.

“It’s a cell phone.” He explained. “And it’s close.”

*******************

In another alleyway in the city, one filled with an exceptional amount of trash, the rat Little Robin came scurrying towards someone waiting for him.

The man was dressed in ratty clothing, very dirty looking pants and old worn out shoes. He had a green jacket on, which was smudged with dirt here-and-there. He wore large rubber gloves and had a gas tank attached so some supped-up squirt gun on his back and holstered to the belt he wore. Around his neck was a nozzle to a gas mask with straps around his neck to hold it. He wore large yellow goggles that covered his eyes. He had ratty brown hair and ears that stuck out from the sides. He smiled, revealing two buck teeth.

He picked Little Robin in his hands and said “Well now, where have you been?” He put it up to his ear and listened to it’s squeaking before saying “I know. And you did a wonderful job. I never actually thought that alien girl would keep you as a pet. That jut made it all the easier for you to talk with me.” He heard more squeaking before saying “Oh? And where are they now then?”

Once he heard more squeaking his eyes went wide with shock. He scrambled into the nearest garbage pile before finding his cell phone. He started to dial before he saw himself overshadowed. He gulped and looked up, seeing the Titans all looking down at him.  He chuckled a bit before trying to get away, only for Starfire to pick him up by the belt, along with Little Robin by the tail. She looked and growled at the rat, making it squeak with fear.

“ The Ratcatcher.” Robin, said, seeing the man. “I should have guessed.”

He gave a nervous giggle before saying “Can you blame me, Robin? A-a man like myself needs to eat and all. A lot of mouths need cheese and all.”

Robin grabbed him by the collar and explained to the others “This man had the ability to telepathically talk with rats and other kinds of rodents. With his little friend around he was able to call the others and let them know where we were ever step of the way.” He pulled him closer and said “Am I getting warm?”

Ratcatcher began to sweat while Raven said “See? I told you I don’t like rats.”

“So what should we do?” Cy asked. “Beat the whiskers of this little creep?”

“You should be ashamed of yourself, rodent human.” Starfire began. “Using such innocent little creatures for your dirty work.” She picked the rat up and said “And you. I thought you the sweet and cuddly. I named you after the one I am in the relationship with. I should send you to the moons of Versanus to be eaten by Jumpnarian birds!”

“Uh, take it easy, Starfire.” BB said awkwardly. “It’s just a rat.”

Robin brought the attention back to Ratcatcher and said “Where’s Simon Hurt?” he quivered a bit before Robin exclaimed “Tell me, Ratcatcher!”

“N-Now, now, son.” He stammered. “I-I’m not so sure you’d want to go there. The good Doctor Hurt had just told everyone to come back to his little hiding place to defend it. You see, he-he apparently got wind of Orca being taken in and now he wants to make sure you can’t touch him before he has time to get out of the city you see. Hehehe. Just-Just goes to show what kind of man he is, right?”

He pulled him closer and asked in a more threatening tone “Where?”

********************

Inside the lobby of a large building, the remaining villains, except Firefly, were all waiting around.

Cyborg used a spy camera attached to his finger to see inside. He and the Titans were across the street hiding behind a dumpster in an alleyway as they looked.

“Well, Ratcatcher was right.” Cy said. “They’re all there. Except for Firefly.”

“He must be flying about the perimeter or something.” BB suggested. The others looked at him oddly before he said “What? That’s what I’d do.”

“If they are here then so is this Simon Hurt.” Star said.

“So how do we do this?” Raven asked.

Robin looked about before saying “Well without Orca’s strength and the Ratcather to give them a heads up, they’re at a big disadvantage. But that still leaves those four, and they’re still tough enough on their own. Plus there’s no knowing what they might have as a surprise in that tower.”

“So what then? BB asked. “Sneak attack? Tunnel underground? Hijack an ice cream truck, run it through the lobby and then pelt them with Oreo sandwiches until they beg for mercy?” He saw them all give him another look before he giggled and said “Well maybe we save the sandwiches for us then.”

Robin hummed a bit before saying “Starfire, you think you can fly me up to the top?”

“Of course.” She said, smiling.

“Good. Then that’s where I’ll go in through. Meanwhile the rest of you will need to keep the others distracted. I’ll get to Hurt and end this.”
“If you say so.” Cy said. “Just be careful. Hurt could be ready for anything.”

Robin smirked and said “So am I.”

*******************

The villains still sat in the lobby before the doors exploded.

They all looked as Cyborg, Raven and BB, in the form of a lion, came charging towards them.

“Well that’s what I call an entrance!” Black Spider said before leaping towards Raven.

The Twin each took on Cyborg and BB, leaping towards them before attacking. The girl tried swiping and dodging attacks from BB while the boy used his swords against Cyborg’s armored body while leaping away from shots with his arm cannon.

Seeing they were distracted, Starfire carried Robin by his arms up to the top of the building. As she flew up Robin looked about for any signs of Firefly.

As they reached the top she said “Everything is clear so far. So sign of...AAHH!”

A blast from a grenade discharge made her stumble in her flight before forcing her down towards the rooftop. Robin leapt off and landed while she managed to stay in the air. Bithlooked back as Firefly flew over and hovered in front of them.

“Hello, Kiddies.” He said. “So tell me, hot pants, you ready for round two?”

Starfire’s eyes glowed before she said “Go, Robin. I will handle this!” before flying towards him.

Both began to dogfight in the air, Starfire firing more bolts while Firefly tried to blast her with his flamethrower.

Seeing no other option, Robin made his way through the doorway and down into the tower.

********************

It took a few minutes for Robin to finally reach what he knew was the door to Hurt’s office.

It was one of the larger doors on the floor and seemed designed with images of butterflies, clocks and even one of a bat. He took out a scanner and saw there was no traps set in the door. He took a deep breath before pushing open the door and seeing everything inside.

“Ah, there you are, Robin.” Simon Hurt aid from his desk. “Please, do come in.”

As Robin came closer to the desk he could finally see Simon Hurt better. The man looked as Robin remembered him, an slightly wrinkled face with dark blue eyes and slicked back dark hair with grey streaks running from front to back. He was wearing a dress shirt with a black suit jacket.

As he came closer Robin said “So you ARE still alive. Hard to believe.”

“Isn’t it?” He said, casually. “While I’ll admit last time was not as extravagant a demise as a fire, it was still quite the task to recover.”

Robin slammed his hand on the desk and said “Why? Why do this? Why attack me and my friends? Why come to my city?”

He only shook his head and said “Robin, my dear boy, I think you know all the answers. You just don’t believe them until you hear them from the mastermind behind it all. It makes you feel better that way, doesn’t it?”

“And what about the people you hired? Old enemies from Gotham. Why not just send some professional goons or some actual assassins?”

He shook his head while saying “You still don’t see it, do you? This whole thing has been more than just an attempt on your life. It’s also been a means of revenge.”

“I caught that.” He said. “But not all of them were there for revenge. And there were plenty of others you could have hired.”

“True enough. But these particular individuals seemed to be a more easier sway than some of you other old foes. Call me cheap if you will. Really it didn’t matter if they did manage to kill you or not before you came here. Frankly, everything’s going exactly as planned.”

Robin narrowed his eyes and said “No. Not this time. I’m putting an end to you and the Black Glove preeminently.”

At that point Hurt laughed and said “You think I’M the head of the Black Glove anymore?” he stopped and sighed while saying “Oh, Robin. You never cease to amaze me. You see, after our last encounter I managed to survive, but at a cost. Some think me immortal, and perhaps that’s true, but in this case, I did not FULLY return to normal.”

Hurt moved his chair to come around to the font of the desk, but Robin was shocked to see Hurt was using a wheelchair. A blanket concealed his useless legs making Robin look confused and surprised.

“You see?” he said. “I’ve already proven twice that I’m an inadequate head of the Black Glove. Now I am merely it’s financer.”

********************

The three Titans had managed to corner the villains in the lobby.

Cyborg had his cannons pointed at them while saying “Had enough?”

Suddenly they all heard the elevator ping and open. From them dozens of armed men came rushing out and surrounding the three. They all wore matching armor and helmets, all with skulls painted on them.  The Titans all looked surprised and frightened by this.

Black Spider, seeing this, stood with the Copperhead Twins and said “Have you?” with a chuckle.

********************

“I don’t understand.” Robin said, seeing Hurt as he was. “It had to be you. You’re always in charge of the Black Glove.”

“That may have been he case before, but after you’ve proven that you cannot handle to crime fighters in bright costumes, and you’re latest encounter costs you your legs, the organization starts to look for others to take your place as leader. But I was not a total loss. I provide all the money and expenses. People like Firefly and the Copperheads don’t just kill for charity. Not unless it suits them well enough.”

“But...if you’re not in charge....then you didn’t order the hit.”

“Oh I did, Robin. Believe me, I did. But only because my superior thought it best. We both share a want to see you and your friends gone for good.”

“Then who’s....?”

Robin’s answer came when the door opened and someone walked towards him.

He stood seven feet tall and wore dark pants and a shirt that exposed his muscular arms and chest. He had spiked bracelets on his wrists and fingerless gloves on his hands. His combat boots clicked as he took a step, his weight making small shake with each one he took. He wore a device on his left wrist that had a dial and tube that attached to the back of his head. And his face was covered with a small that had a pattern similar to a skull, his mouth covered and the yes to it with red covers.

Robin’s eyes widened more and more at the shock of who it was. The man cracked his knuckles and said, with a Spanish accent “Hello, Boy Wonder.”

Robin could barely speak when he finally said “......Bane!"
