[Enter Kurt, Nikkie, BeastBoy and Kai from Stonewall]
Kurt walked through the room first walking Nikkie over and setting her on a chair.
"Here you go miss."
He said with a slight smile he still held her arms behind the chair.
"If I let go will you attempt to hurt anyone?"
Kurt was trying to be as polite to her as possible. For him it usually worked. He let go and teleported out of the holding cell quickly. He then pressed the door lock and it shut her in.
Kai walked in after Gar and a few others looking around. She spotted Oracle and walked over to her pulling out her drive.
"This is all the info I could get."
She turned to look at Gar who stood in the hall next to Kurt.
((Let's say that Oracle was waiting for them in the hall... it would be easier. a hall with holding cells right?))

(ENTER Conner Kent, Tim Drake and Jimmy Zorn)
Kon followed Nightcrawler's lead to the cell, putting the man in his own and securing it for now. He turned to see that Tim was leaning against the wall in the hallway.
Robin's hand was up over his face as he rubbed at his temple. He was looking down at the ground; the extended staff was still in his other hand, his arm loosely hanging limp so the metal barely touched the floor.

"So this is it... we succeeded?"
Kurt asked turning to look over at the others. Gar stood next to him at the moment.
"For now yes, but not till we end their operation... this is only the start."
Gar said with a sigh, he knew it wasn't over but for now it was a step in the right direction. He then walked over to Tim who slouched.
"Tim are you okay?"
Gar asked walking up to him. He put his hand on Tim's shoulder.
"Look we have been through a lot this last few days... all of us... maybe you should take Kai with you back to the cave."

Robin nodded slowly and took his hand from his face. He clicked the staff and put it in its place on his back, standing straight.
"We should really stop by Gotham General first. We need to... check on someone."
Tim looked away immediately after his statement. Something in this world hurt even Alfred.... he hoped to God he was alright. The batcave wasn't the batcave without him.
(no wonder Bruce is so grumpy in Batman Beyond. His oldest friend is dead, and his bird was tortured into insanity. D: )
Conner thought on what Nightshade said about staying at the institute. It all looked too 'official' as a base of operation, but he was already getting to know some of the people there. The Tower, his second home, was gone. He didn't even know what shape Smallville, or Metropolis was in. With that in mind Superboy approached Kurt.
"I have- places to visit- but maybe I could stick around here afterwards."
Maybe he could help the world out in the best ways with them? He'd have to see how Metropolis was doing... the thought of the city brought him to how people would react. What would they say after seeing an S-shield after months on end without some?
"I need to see what's going on with the Titans first."
He glanced at Tim. Were they going to start up the Titans team again? Kon would definitely be in if that were the case, even if it wouldn't be the same without Bart and Cassie...
(Wow, he's just thinking about one sad thing after another...ok, what about Star? What's going on with her right now? >.> I know she's still in Metropolis... is the group going to be doin some interrigating...?)

[Enter Rogue and Ward Abbot from Stonewall HQ]
Marie walked through the portal hefting an unconscious Ward Abbot on her shoulder. Just after she deposited the elder agent into a cell, Rogue unzipped his pants and pulled out the small pistol the man had hidden in his drawers -- recalling a memory of Abbot talling to Jimmy Zorn:
Zorn: "How many guns do you carry?"
Abbot: "Three. One holdout, one hip and one down here, right next to Mr. Wally, where most patdowns never reveal it, as even the most hardened federal agent is often reluctant to feel up another man's groin. Any other questions?"
Rogue just stared a moment at the unconsicous CIA director and shook her head, "Yeah. What's the weather like on your planet?"
The lady X-man turned on her heels and left the cell. Behind her, she close the door and locked the cell -- going to join the others. She found herself smiling when she approached Superboy and Nightcrawler, "We need ta fly to save your other teammate, right?"

Oracle rolled up, eyeing Kai's injuries, "Thanks RC. And you better go to the infirmary.... all of you."
[Enter Jinx and Nightshade]
'Batgirl' and Nightshade walked through the portal which dissapated into vapors. Jinx grinned broadly, "Scratch off one secret bad guy base... Why are you looking at me like that, Oracle?"
Barbara blinked a moment as Nightshade limped toward the infirmary, "I think you and Nightcrawler are the only two that don't need to go to the infirmary."
Jinx's expression changed, "Oh.... Uh, here let me help you."
The goth sorceress took Nightshade under his arm and helped guide him to the infirmary.

"Oracle I can help. Besides I would like to review the information that's on the drive too."
She stated boldly. Kai wasn't one for being disobedient or asking questions especially when it came to Oracle but in this case she really didn't want treatment here. She also wanted to see what was on that drive, where she could find other titans and who worked with the organization. Being a major problem to programs like these Kai got to know quite a few scientists and directors of these places and she wanted to make sure that she knew who she was up against. Hopefully she wouldn't know any of these people meaning they wouldn't know her, but at the same time knowing them would only help the others know who they were against.
Gar nodded standing next to Robin.
"You were trained to work in one of the most dangerous cities and mentored by the strictest teacher... I think it goes without saying that you can make your own decisions and that you will be safe where ever you decide to go."
He took his hand off Robin's shoulder.
"But...I think for now you should follow Nightshade, you should get medical attention before he takes you anywhere."

Oracle nodded as she began to turn the wheelchair around to head back to the X-Men War Room, "We'll bring it up on the computers here. Since one of the assassins showed up at my place, we'll have to assume that everything there is compromised -- until we know otherwise. Get yourself patched up, they have 'biobeds' here that can accelerate the healing process. Let's take advantage of that. Besides, I already cleared it with Professor Xavier. When you're back up, I can catch you up to speed Kai."
Jinx helped Nightshade into the infirmary and guided him to one of the biobeds. Des groaned slightly as he was helped onto the bed, "Kid, you're going to have to help me pull the slugs out and patch me up."
Des pulled out his gladstone bag and opened it, "Okay Batgirl, here's what I want you to do..."

Kai stood still as Oracle got ready to leave.
"How about Bio No-bed rest. This isn't the time, if anything I would like to head back to the cave Asap, review the information before I leave. Besides since when has any member of the Bat-family had to get anything approved by others before we continued working?"
Kai hoped that that would get the point across to Bab's that she meant what she said. Her cocky tone began to soften as she though about home. Kai missed the family she had made from her home world, and now it almost felt as though, in some way, her family was taken from her in this disaster and replaced.
"Oracle... Babs... You used to share info with me, we were really good friends, at one point you knew what I could and couldn't handle. But this new world. It's as if i never existed, and all I want is to go home, at least in one form or another."
Kai walked up to Oracle and pulled out her cell phone. It contained pictures and contacts along with some personal info.
"This has pictures of the family I made at home along with some info about myself if you would like to keep it. It seems to be the closest thing to records on myself in this world now."
((Babs can look through it, but the main point was getting Kai's personal info. Something to put on record and to help this worlds bat-family to better understand where she is from.))

Oracle sighed as she pushed her glasses back up on her nose, "Fine.... I'll see what I can do. And if you pass out from your wounds, I'm beating you silly with my eskrima sticks."

"I wouldn't expect anything less Babs."
Kai smiled a little and then glanced to see if she could spot where Oracle hid her sticks. She turned to see Gar, Tim and Kon head towards the infirmary. Then she turned back and walked next to Oracle. Seeing Babs without d**k was weird for Kai. Richard was like an older brother to her.
Tim looked to the floor as he followed Nightshade. They needed to stick close to him anyway. Thinking about Alfred made Robin wonder... He never told Kai about the butler staying at the hospital. She even asked about him at the cave, but they were distracted by the 'future batman' before he could say anything. Now that the group successfully made it back from Stonewall HQ he needed to tell her. This was going to be difficult...
Gar followed Tim as he headed to the infirmary. He kept quiet all the while his mind raced. Thoughts of what would become of the Titans, who these people were, and many titans they had lost because of them. He was particularly worried about Kai who seemed to be taking he injuries lightly. As leader of the Titans it was still his obligation to make sure his teams members stayed in good health. He glanced over at Kon who had started following them. When he caught up he slowed his pace.
"Connor I want you to stay with Tim, I am going to check out what Oracle and Kai found."
"Right"
It didn't take a whole lot for Connor to jog up to his friend. He walked next to Tim in silence on their way to the infirmary. He watched Des and Batgirl a moment.
"So who's that? I don't think I've met her before."
Tim knew what Superboy meant, through that, and he wasn't sure if now was the right time to explain all this. He looked up and stared at Conner a moment.
"She was a titan... before everything shot to hell."
Kon exchanged the glance with Tim. His lack of optimism was hard to take at the moment.
After Kon caught up with Tim for a moment Gar transformed into a sparrow flying towards Kai and Oracle quickly. He got behind the two of them flying down as if to land while he morphed back into his human form.
"Wait Kai."
He stated calmly.
"Oracle you should have sent her to the infirmary."
"Gar... she gave me permission to come along."
Garfield glanced at her for a moment with seriousness. He kept a stern look. If it was necessary he would put on a sad begging face just to get her to go. Reasons, he had to think of reasons to get her to go if she wouldn't go for her own injuries. "I got it." He snapped his fingers.
"Kai I know she gave you permission but don't you think you would be doing more good helping Nightshade? The sooner he get's better the sooner you can go to the Cave."
Kai crossed her arms stubbornly. "He's right..." She thought. But she would have to go to the infirmary regardless. Now there wasn't a way she could review the information herself. She could probably think of a couple more things to say to keep her from leaving.
"... but she doesn't know the password to my drive. What if there is something important that I will miss?"
"It's fine just go help Nightshade. If anything comes up that would interest you Oracle and I will let you know."
Kai glanced at the both of them for a moment hesitating. She then turned the other direction and walked towards where Tim and Kon were heading.
((I am working via text with soul to help keep her characters caught up. X3 ))

Oracle cast Beast Boy a look, "Calling the kettle black, are we? Considering you have a few gun shot wounds... point blank judging from the gunpowder burns."
Babs continued into the War Room and plugged in the USB drive.
Jinx finished sewing up Nightshade, several bullets laying in a small pan beside her. Des slowly slid off the bed, "You did pretty good, kid. And now, you can help me tend to them."
The old doctor indicated toward the entrance by nodding his head.
'Batgirl' turned her head and saw several people limping in, "Oh yeah. Okay then. Let's do this."
Rogue walked beside Kon, "Is your friend gonna be alright, Kansas?"

((Okay to catch up Tim, Connor Rogue and Kai are walking into the infirmery. Kai is several feet behind the lot of them. And Rogue asking her question to Kon as they enter the doorway. Now for some posting.))
Gar kept up with Oracle after giving her a strange glance. Once they reached the war room he put his hand on the computer panel that Oracle was using.
"Oracle... Kai may not be able to heal herself right now, but she healed me. Despite my refusal. I think she needs real medical help if not at least help others."
He took his hand off for a moment while he talked and lifted up his shirt to reveal slight scaring from the bullet wound. He then proceeded to pull his shirt back down.
"She's a good kid... Teen. I feel we should cut her some slack."

Oracle shrugged as she opened all the files on Project Stonewall, "Actually, I'm hoping Nightshade ties her down to a gurney, so he can look at her wounds. I'm almost as bad as she is in sheer stubbornness. And yes, I worry.... I ... used to be out there, like Kai is now before....," Babs voice cracked a little, "I used to be a gymnist, you know. There's alot of things that I... Now I'm thinking of Percy Shelly:
'"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.'"
As the files opened up and placed into a logical order, Barbara looked appologetically at Garfield, "I'm sorry about that. I've been having a lot on my mind recently. I was confronted recently on all that I lost."

"It's okay. And gurneys really aren't Kai's thing. She hasn't told the Titans why yet, but we noticed she hates doctors and refuses to get medical treatment from most everyone even some of her friends."
Gar sighed. He looked at the computer where it had listed the names of major leaders their co-workers and files that opened off them that showed their job descriptions and the work they have done for the organization. What bewildered Gar though was the two file basis. One for Stonewall and One for IO.
He leaned forward pointing at the one file.
"What's IO? There are workers listed under both and some under one or the other. Job's given to one or the other."
