Bruce grabbed the line and waited as it zipped him up to the Batplane, Oracle's voice sounding in his ear piece as if she were right beside him. As soon as he entered, he saw the coordinates already waiting in the Batplane's computer. Engaging the auto-pilot to take him on the two mile trip to get to Damian's location before pulling out a small round disc from a compartment in the jet. Holding it on his bleeding side, Batman then pushed down causing it to almost instantly heat up and cauterizing the wound on his side. A grunt passing between clenched teeth as the jet turned and launched itself away.

Steam swirled around the cockpit caused from the water on his suit and the small disc he used to close his wound. The smell containing burnt flesh. It did not matter. He had to focus. Keep his mind sharp not just to block the pain between his ribs and side, but to try and think of what Talia may be up to. She always hated the fact Damian ran away to him, but they made that agreement she would stay out of his life and Gotham. So why was she breaking it now? Did she simply think it would be easy to snag the boy during this event? No, Bruce was sure there was more to it, he just had to figure out what. Of course, her appearance had to happen when he finally agreed to let Damian off on his own. It was a stupid mistake, and now he was paying for it. Talia may already have Damian cornered.

The trip lasted only a few seconds for the Batplane, but it was enough for millions of scenarios to play through the Detective's head. The cockpit slid back and while the plane slowed down enough for this act to be safe, it kept flying on as Batman jumped out. To those on the roof they'd see the plane, and just as it flew past to reveal his image in the air he let six Batarangs fly - each connecting with League members as his cape spread out to glide him towards his target.

He remembered the man who knocked Damian out. One of Talia's best. To Bruce, that meant nothing. He kept his descent just below terminal velocity and before the Assassin could do more than turn to see what dropped his men, Batman was on him. Using his weight and the fall to slam the man into the ground, he was out in an instant, not that he was done with him for what he did to Damian. Entering into a roll, Bruce took the unconcsious body with him. On completion the Dark Knight was on his feet and flipping the body over his head sending it into another before him.

The action caused another tinge of pain shoot through his head. He couldn't stop though. They were well trained and already had Damian. Carrying him away from Batman and the others. From underneath the cape shot out six more Batarangs dropping ninja between him and his son as well as those carrying Robin. It wasn't enough. Another soon grabbed Damian as most crowded around Gotham's protector. He couldn't lose another Robin. He couldn't lose his son! He fought through the crowd. Taking one down after another, bodies dropping with broken arms and legs. He couldn't risk them getting back up, he had to get to Damian! It wasn't helping though, there were too many pushing him back.

"Talia has my son!" he snarled watching the last glimpse of Robin's cape vanish. A moment later the Batplane flew back over, gloved hand pulling out his grappling hook and latching on to get pulled out of the crowd and in the cockpit. He could have asked Cassandra to subdue one of the League for answers, but he knew they were trained better than that.

Flying off in the direction he last saw his son, but of course no trace was left. Frantic fingers tapped the Dark Knight into various cameras and satellites as the Batplane circled the area of Robin's last whereabouts but nothing came up. "I've failed" escaped his lips in a gasp, not even aware he left his line to Oracle open. A moment later his grip on the stick loosened and everything went black.

Batgirl
Stephanie Brown

Green Arrow was a sight for sore eyes. “I would ask ‘what took you so long?’ but seeing as you just saved by life I think I'll withhold all snarky comments for the time being.” She said flashing a smile from under the cowl. “I’m fine but this man needs to get to some paramedics quick.” Her hands were still applying pressure to the wounds. The gauze she was using had bleed through so Batgirl reached for some more from the first aid kit, luckily there was still some left but she would be using the last of it. She switched the bloody gauze for the fresh ones. She over her shoulder to where White Shark had fallen after Green Arrow’s shot. They couldn’t move this man, the paramedics needed to come to them with a stretcher and proper equipment. However the paramedics couldn’t till White Shark was taken into custody and the all clear was given for the building. “My hands are a little tied up here, can you tie up fish breath so we can get some proper medical attention to this man.” She turned her attention back to the bleeding man. It wasn’t looking good if they didn’t get him some proper attention soon there would be a high chance he may die. "Sir, please hold on. Stay with us. If you see a light don't go near it. I know it looks pretty awesome and glowy but trust me and stay away from it." Batgirl could tell this man was fading. She didn't know what else she could do. The blood was seeping through the bandages again, once it did she would have no new bandages to change it with. The man opened his eyes a crack.

"Lyan." was all he said.

"Huh?"

"Lyan, that's my daughter's name. If I don't make it through please tell her I love her and I'm sorry."

"Tell her yourself, you are going to be okay sir." He had a kid, of course he did. The last thing gotham needed was another orphan. "You are going to be all right." At this point Stephanie didn't really know who she was trying convince the man or herself.

Colin Abuse

The two kids watched from the alley. Abuse with one hand on Spoiler’s shoulder to make sure she didn’t try anything funny. The foes that Damian was fighting weren’t some average crooks. They were assassins, the kind the Robin and always told Colin that if he saw to get as far away as possible. After becoming friends Damian had warned him. Becoming allies with Robin also meant Abuse may then run into some of Robin’s more dangerous enemies including these types of assassins. Damian hadn’t told him much else about them and when Colin had tried to argue stating that as Abuse he could perfectly take care of himself the other boy had become even more grim than normal. He made Colin promise that if he ever saw them not to engage in battle. Colin was currently finding it currently very difficult to keep that promise. If it wasn’t for the fact that he needed to guard Nell Abuse would be up on the roof tops joining in on the fight. It looked for a moment that Robin was winning with the help of the tiger lady and another one of the bats. Then it happened almost to fast to comprehend. One of the assassins had knocked out and captured Robin. “ROBIN!” Abuse shouted from the alley below the battle as he lurched forward. He made a couple steps forward towards the fire escape even though his subconsciously knew any attempts he could make to save his friend would prove to be futile. He stopped when a cool female voice spoke in his ear. Oracle? Who was Oracle? Colin had many questions but now wasn’t the time for those question. “The Spoiler can’t fight and I can’t get her to go or stay at home.” This earned a protest from Nell behind him. “Who are those assassin’s?!? Where are they taking Robin?!?” His voice was a low growl but couldn’t hide the instability of a child afraid for the life of his best friend. Colin couldn’t help but hate himself a little; he was supposed to have Robin’s back that’s what best friend’s did, they had each other’s backs. Instead he had stayed back to protect Nell and this had happened. Abuse’s fists clenched together.

I have many names but my enemies call me Lycan

She had no choice but to take up whatever Deathstroke thrown at her, she was a monster and she needs help to control it, sadly the only help she can was from that man, "He may taught me to live as a monster but I am trying to hold on to that bit of whatever Human I left inside, Robin," the Pan-were's voice thick with loath.

When one of the Bats drop in to join in the fun, Lycan struggles to hide a frown, well she is like most cats, she does not like to share her 'toys'. The young half-a** villain is enjoying herself as those Ninjas keep on coming even they knew who they were up against, well that is full of her to think this manner. Many times when they learn she is with Deathstroke, they will be that little bit unnerve and will not want to do anything with her. These Ninjas are different, as if they are programmed or well ordered to keep on coming as if to distract them...Lycan's fist connects the lower jaw of one, she can feel the fragile bone crack under her upper cut, she sneers and jabs into his solar plexus.

"Oi, Angry Bird," she calls out, Lycan only notices what is going on when Batman joins the party and he is going after the Ninjas that has Robin. She curses that she got too carried away and Robin got taken away for whatever reason it may be, it is not be her business anyway but now that she is involve some how, she will make it her business. Lycan snarls in anger, "Why the hell am I a sucker for children!" she knows very well why. First Nell, now Robin. "Oi, Bat lady there, asks the big Bat to keep a tap on my comm-link's signal, I will be tracking them down via scent," she barks an order at the Black Bat and she shifts into a horse-size snow white fur wolf. She knows these Bats are smart enough to find her comm-link's signal rather at ease, now that she is like within range of two Bats. The large wolf growls at the Ninjas blocking her way, she using her sheer body weight against them, she slams her body at them clearing a path out of the mess.

Lycan jumps onto the other building's roof, she let's out a loud howl and starts sniffing for Robin's scent, she has been in her Tiger form earlier, she is able to recognize his scent, it will take time cause it may be cover by those stupid ninjas as they try to get away or as they are coming in at them, their scent is thick enough to linger and dulls Robin's scent.

[Servant Reborn]

Jester was a little disappointed Nightwing did not seem to hear him, but the fellow suggested some martial arts class would be beneficial. Osmond did not know a lot about martial arts except for the movies, but he figured it wasn't effective unless the person studying was super obsessed with it.

Even then, Osmond was skeptical it would make fighting any easier. It wasn't as if he had years available to train. Gotham City needed help now, not later. Nonetheless, any kind of self defense would help. Maybe something less flashy like boxing, for instance. Jester heard someone fall behind him. It was the drug dealer. He watched Nightwing glide off and stood in amazement.

"Whoa, that's super cooool!"

Alone, Osmond walked over to the drug dealer and tied him with another rope. Then, he rubbed his hands together and smiled until he looked up and notice what time it was. His eyes turned large and he made a bee line to head back to his home. His room mates would be getting up soon.

Crap! I gotta get back before they wake up and find I'm not home!

He saw the Chesire.. another unfortuante investment. However she did have her perks.. walking along the club. He looked and his eyebrows went up and he walked towards her. He gave her a slight whistle as the little man approached her with bit of a frown.

"Yes dear..I do wish you would make an appoitment.. my more 'colorful' guest.. should use the back door. I don't need any capes..running through my place.."

He said with a bit of a frown. He only escorted her to the back.. where it seemed as his number two had something on his mind too. The whole world was crumbling around Oswald's hands and he didn't have any controll right now.

"Sir it has been days. and I don't think it's coming back. Shall we prepare for ..the inevitable. We start the war ourself."

Penguin looked down as he shrugged his shoulders. He was quite.. not hurt but upset. His newest toy seemed to dissappear on him within its first mission. The stupid Brothers didn't manage to bring him any money back. He was losing money like it was water. He couldn't stand for that. not even in the least bit. His mind went a bit blank and he let his fingers cross for a moment sitting behind his desk.

"..I think the only way we are going to get through this.. and show people..that we arn't a joke..is to show them the birds. So I guess..I will let them free. It's little bit early.. but I want to bring the gangs of Gotham under.. my control. Let them know that I am the one..I am the major playor. Now lets ruffle some feathers."

Penguin walked to his chambers. As he pressed a button. Large gears started to whirl and chains clanked. The end of the world it sounded like. The large computer came from the basement.. of the club. Penguin sat there for a moment and it blinked a few times. Penguin entered in his password and his username. He sighed slowly as he let his fat fingers push certain buttons and now he had a clear view of gotham. He had twenty 'penguins' available. All black missles that were awkward in size but they got the job done. He only started to wonder..where oh where.. would he drop his missles....

"good bye Gotham."

He said in a cheerful voice. As he launched the first Missle towards a local villain hangout...nothing serious but where a bunch of C-Listers stayed. The first would be the smallest and it would get the attention of the criminal world. The next would be more important.. and he would be heard.

It almost seemed as if the Boss man wouldn't make an appearance, but he came out to meet her. His comment on her drawing attention was an understatement she was sure he was unaware of. She let him lead her to the back so she wouldn't stir up these simpletons. His talk of the toy not returning was probably some effect of one of the capes. Of course she couldn't say for sure because she had been distracted, so she couldn't inform him one way or another. She lounged on his desk and waited for him to push some buttons.

"Boss, darling, I think we could make this quicker if you'd allow me to take some goons and attack these low-lives head on. Unless you had something else in mind...in which case I'm more than willing to sit back and... never mind, I need action. Where are you sending me?"

A long time ago she decided only those she chose would be able to see her that intimately. No one else would have even the slightest privelage. When he said goodbye to Gotham she was worried he was dumb enough to explode the whole of Gotham, but that only lasted for a second. The henchman standing near her tried to put a hand on her, then he remembered what happened to the last guy and returned his hand to his side. At least they learn . She sat grinning just waiting for the birdman to give her something to do.

Ollie smiled as she gave off the snarky comment before asking him to finish dealing with White Shark Giving Batgirl a playful bow. "As you wish my lady princess. Your knight shall slay the beast and save the day." He said with a smile before turning to face White Shark who had gotten up. "Ready for round 2. I see well let us begin." Ollie bantered as he decided to have a little fun with taking him down. So instead of shooting an arrow at him he charged at White Shark dodging a wild haymaker before punching him hard in the stomach and and bringing his elbow down on the back of the keeled over White Sharks head knocking him out. He then proceeded to tie him up while he called out to the cops and paramedics. Who immediately rushed in once Ollie gave them the ok and began to treat the man Batgirl was taking care of. Once he handed the unconcious White Shark over to the cops Ollie figured it was time to talk to Batgirl make sure she was ok approaching her. He decided to remember his dealings with Mia, Batgirl looked roughly the same age. "So Batgirl nice work, are you alright? It seemed like he had you in a rough spot, didn't hurt you or nothing right." Ollie also thought it might be a good idea to inform Oracle that her younger newer counterpart was not dead. Turning on the comm, he gave her a quick debrief. "Oracle this is Green Arrow I have taken care of White Shark and helped out Batgirl. I will accompany her a little longer so if you have any more work for us to do please let us know." As Ollie did this the paramedics had removed the man from Batgirls hands freeing her up. Ollie extended his hand to help her up. "So... want some help...not that you need my help or anything but you know. I could help you." Once again Ollie was thinking about how independent Mia was and how she would get mad at him for being overprotective and he wasn't sure how Batgirl would handle him offer to help her.

OCC: Next post will be off your reaction Hood.
The Joker continued to watch T.V. when Hood spoke to him. A wide smile came across his lips, "there is never anything good on T.V. nowadays.....thats why you you have to make shows of your own......like that one sad HOOD episode; Batman couldn't save the howling boy wonder. The father in the closet, heard the signal busting open the door swinging the crowbar at the back of Hood's head while he was distracted aiming to drop him on the ground with such a blow. The blow wasn't meant to knock him out, but disorient him, probaly damage the built in computer system in his helment.

[TDATachi Muzamaki]

The Black Bat watched Batman get back in his Batplane, she stared at his plane for the moment, but Robin had to be saved. Batman could take care of his self, for the mean time she could get to the bottom of this Robin situation. Black Bat looked over to the others then Zoey who told her to tell Batman to tap into her comm link.

"I'll follow you instead...can't do everything alone."

After Lycan moved on to another roof, Black Bat was behind her moving silently, keeping a look out for LOA members.

The blow had been sudden and uncontrolled as the curved head of the crowbar smashed downwards into the helmet of Red Hood. Reflex caused his fingers to squeeze the trigger and fire off two shots at an upward angle which blew out the window behind the Joker. The blow caused the helmet's communication system to short circuit as well as the digital lenses in his helmet. Hood was quick to react as his hands extended and grasped his rabid attacker by the wrists and flip him against the opposite wall. In a flash Hood straddled him and struck down with the butt of his pistols. " You sick freak!" Hood shouted as he assumed the man was one of Joker's thugs in a possible trap setup by the Joker ahead of time. The sobbing of the children caused him to focus on the gurgling man beneath him.
" Daddy? Daddy please get up" One of the kid's said in a soft tone as Hood stumbled to his feet and raised his blood soaked guns at Joker.

" What did you make me do JOKER?" The rage was finally there and no longer was he fearful of this psycho but instead boiled with anger and the memories of his attack. Again he had possibly taken a life pretending to be a hero. For his sake, for Cassie's sake it had been a chance at redemption but instead it had become a farce that led him back down the road to damnation. " Let the kids go clown. Let them go NOW." There was still a chance to save the children and then he'll have his revenge." Tell me what you want in exchange."

[TDATachi Muzamaki]

The Joker ducked from the shots then laughed and clapped as Hood took down the innocent civilian.

"Bravo, your going to make the head lines once again.The boy wonder strikes again, almost kills or has killed the father of two, such a tragic story.......the poor man just wanted to save his kids."

The Joker made rubbing crying eyes gestures as he spoke. The Joker looked down to the father who was struggling to live.

"Heyyyyy, he kinda looks like you in the past when I beat you and what your about to look like now."

The Joker picked up one of the children as he stood on his feet then tossed th child at Hood.

"Batter up."

The Joker put away his gun and ran for the crow bar assuming Hood would catch the kid. If Hood chose to catch the kid, The Joker would have already had the crowbar in his hand swinging it at the bottom of Hood's right leg to drop him on the ground. If he was dropped to his knees, The Joker would raise the crowbar up then back down aiming to strike Hood again sending him to the ground flat on the floor.

d**k let a sigh out in relief. Barbara was fine. But then, she did relay news about the League of Assassins going after Damian. Weren't they suppose to stay out of Gotham? This wasn't good, but at least Batman was on the trail. He veered from his path towards the Cave and started to look around the city again. "O, where am I needed?" The best location he had was Jason being near the park, and that left quite an area open. The kids could be in bad shape, but then Jason may snap if he's pursuing the Joker. Barbara would have an idea what needed to be done, and a better idea for that matter where the rest of the heroes were running to.
