TW: NEEDLES

Meanwhile at the Watchtower...

Jesse had just finished having another seizure. Dinah was right by her side when it happened, and was very shaken up by it. She held onto her daughter's hand as a tear fell from her eye. 

"Just hold on...just a little longer." 

Back in Paris...

Amelia finished packing her suitcase ready to make the trip back to the watchtower. The hotel was nearby a Zeta tube, so they didn't need to fly. A thud from the other room knocked her from her thoughts, "Hello?" She calls out as she goes to check on Dick. 

She gasps seeing him passed out on the floor. She quickly runs to his side trying to wake him. Her whole body goes still when a gun is pressed against her head, "You really think it'd be that easy?" A gruff voice said from behind her. 

"How much is he paying you?" She asked as she stood up and turned around looking at the orange and black mask that was so infamous. Slade Wilson smirked as he twirled his gun around his finger before holstering it. 

"This one was on the house, we have business to settle." He replies then gets into a fighting stance. She does as well then expertly dodged the first swing. Slade keeps throwing punches which she dodges with a confident grin.

"Come on Deathstroke, you really think after all that training that I wouldn't know your movements?" She asked as she jumps off of a table landing gracefully on his shoulders. He grabbed her ankles tossing her across the room. Thanks to her mother's training she knew how to gracefully land. Her hands grabbed onto the chandelier then she drops down. A bullet whizzed by scraping her cheek. 

"You never miss..." 

"A warning shot." 

Amelia narrowed her eyes then walked closer to Deathstroke, "What does he want?" She asked as she made sure to keep a distance from him. He followed her movements then tossed her a file. She opened it to see the bounty on her head placed by the Joker. 

"You took his weapon, he needs a new one." He says before aiming his gun again. This time he didn't miss. A dart shot right into her thigh making her groan in pain before dropping to the ground. 

Dick shot up breathing heavily, "Emi?!?" He calls out as he frantically looks around the hotel room only to find it empty. He picked up a a bullet that was laying a couple feet from him, and knew instantly where she was. 

"Slade." 

Batman jumped up when the Zeta tube alerted the WatchTower of Dick's return. He marched his way down to the teleporter to see him turning towards the Gotham teleporter, "Want to explain the secret mission you two went on?" He asked staring at the back of his head. Dick turned looking at his mentor through his sunglasses. 

"We were finding a cure for the poison you caused. Now Deathstroke has Kitten." 

"What?!?" 

Both of them turned to see Jesse being held up by Wonder Woman as she was helping her walk around after recently waking up. Her blue eyes were wide with fear for her best friend.

"Jester, you should still be in bed." Batman says sternly glaring at Wonder Woman who returned his glare with one of her own. 

"No, I'm going to find her!" She argues then tries to walk on her own. She limped at first, but managed to conjure enough strength to stand to her full height. Dinah came running around the corner with Oliver hot on her heels. 

"Jesse! We didn't realize you were awake." She says then sees the stare down between her daughter, and Batman. 

"What's wrong?"
