Nightshade nodded, "When we're done, do you need an extra hand or two?"

"Yeah, we could definitely stick around Gotham afterwards.... at least, this is where Red Cardinal and I usually work."
Lighten the load for Batman. Of course, Tim's patrolling was done typically with Bruce or Nightwing, or alone... their schedules would have to alter. Tim didn't know how long this world was going to be the way it was. What if it was permanant? Robin looked back to Kai. It was about time they restocked.

Terry's eyes widened slightly at the suggestion, only barely refraining from snapping 'No!'. He did not want Tim patrolling by himself. He didn't even want Tim patrolling with this girl. God, this was exactly why he didn't do sidekicks, and was only a part time member of the Justice League; it just wasn't worth the headache. "One thing at a time," he replied dryly, keeping his composure. He had to get out of there. Fast. Before he accidentally dropped some kind of hint that would get one of these people killed.

Des sighed and began making his way over to Robin and Red Cardinal, "Alright, but you might want to talk to Oracle.... Miss Gordon to get your bearings. I think she would appreciate someone to talk to, and she's in touch with everything going on. She's a ... brave young woman."

Tim agreed.
"She's been working hard."
He approached Kai again.
"Let's get stocked and go. Nice to meet you, Bats."
Robin added, turning as he started to walk towards the storage.

"Likewise." The next second, his rocket boots kicked in, and he was shooting out of the cave like a comet. Ooookay. This didn't change a damn thing. He just had to keep reminding himself of that.

Nightshade made a double take of Terry's takeoff, "Wow, Rocket Man. Didn't see that coming. Tell me when you're ready you two."

Robin watched Batman leave as well. He knew how to make an exit with style... Bruce would do it when no one was looking.... Tim was pretty good at that too.
"I want those boots."
Tim laughed a little as he shifted through the decel cord, different pellets, explosives and R-shurikens.
"Sure thing, Nightshade."

Red Cardinal quickly grabbed a few of the basic necessities. She grabbed a few handfuls of bombs, smoke pellets, shurikens, tracers, and grapnel hooks. She placed them in their assigned compartments in her belt and sealed the pockets. Once she was done she began walking around the cave. Something she hadn't done in awhile. For a few moments she seemed to be staring off into space, nothing looked different to her about the cave.
"I guess no matter where we are the cave is the same..."
She whispered to herself while Robin still got ready. He spent the time talking to 'Batman' while she began filling her belt. Kai was a little disappointed that he didn't want her help. Normally 'Batman' at least needs a Robin but this guy... only wanted to work alone. He wasn't too masterful at leaving unseen either. That's something that Bruce did... leaving when no one was looking. He just took off like a rocket, which is something that he probably most likely didn't learn from Bruce.
"He's not too sneaky I wonder what he learned from the real Batman if anything."
Kai said looking back at Robin.
"He doesn't even want any help. Batman at least always had a Robin right?"
She continued to look around the room when she came upon a pod in a darker corner of the room. She inspected it to see what it was and upon further evaluation it seemed to be that a person was inside it.
"Robin I think you need to take a look at this... Was this here when you were here last?"
((Hey E could you tell us the details of this SuperGirl thing that happened?))

((Sure. Supergirl basically looks like She-Venom right now, except that she has a sort of rough 'S' symbol on her chest. She's restrained in a pod that is apparently being filled with red sun radiation, and doesn't seem to be conscious at the moment. Bruce had some notes on her condition in the Batcomputer, and Terry seems to have updated them.
'Subject: Kara Zor-El
Classification: Kryptonian
Condition: Infested with symbiotic entity (see: Venom, Carnage, Hybrid)
Notes: symbiote vulnerabilities to fire and sonics seems to have been neutralized by Kryptonian invulnerability. Weakness to kryptonite remains constant. Seems to have a mental effect, causing recklessness and belligerence in the host. As of latest entry, it seems to have overwhelmed host consciousness completely.'
... And just for the record Terry is SO sneaky. He sneaks. All the time. He just wanted to get the hell out of dodge. /petulant griping))

"Well, not always... but for nearly the last decade."
Tim answered to Kai's comment as he kept picking out gadgets he slipped into different pouches on his belt.
He had just finished restocking when he turned his head to Red Cardinal, who called him over. Her voice suddenly held signs of more uncertainty... and caution. He approached Kai.
"What's-"
He paused when he caught sight of what she was talking about.
"Oh."
He looked at the creature for a moment, then moved over to the small screen that stood next to the pod. He typed, clicking around for the information, which displayed almost instantly. After a beat, he spoke with surprise.
"This is... this is Supergirl!"
He looked back up at the creature breifly, then kept reading.
"It says here she's 'infested with symbiotic entity.' Great, sounds just perfect..... 'symbiote vulnerabilities to fire....sonics neutralized by Kryptonian invulnerability....mental effect...........'"
Tim looked up again after reading the last part to himself first.
"...'seems to have overwhelmed host consciousness completely'....oh man."

"Not Super girl... This world is so dysfunctional it's..."
She stopped slamming her fist into the glass of the pod. It seemed invulnerable and her hand was still injured. She walked quickly over towards nightshade, she left a noticeable amount of blood from her wounds reopening on the glass but at this point she really didn't care. Everyone she knew, people that were her friends or could help stop the insanity that was going on here were being attacked, killed, and changed.
"Let's go. Nightshade we need to go, I don't want to stay here."

Robin secured the screen, shortly joining Nightshade and Red Cardinal.
"For the time being... "
He looked to them, his expression not exactly portraying 'exhaustion'... at least not physically.
"Titan's need us."

One other thing would have popped up on the screen of the Batcomputer: a police report of a theft at the Belmont Mansion. The details that came out was that the female thief got away from Green Arrow and managed to heist a fortune in Ceylon sapphires.
Nightshade nodded at Red Cardinal, "And should I look at your hand that you just busted open?"

"It's nothing Nightshade."
She clasped her left hand over her right to cover up the injury. She could heal it as son as she had the energy too, and she didn't want to go out of the way to have bandages and stitches put on her wound. Her hand appeared to have a few deep cuts and some mild burning, but it wasn't anything too serious. Her only concern about the wound is that she shouldn't have to put extra effort in healing a wound like this but since it was inflicted by a demon it was going to be a little bit harder to heal quickly.
"It was just a demon."
