12:01 - The Batcave.

   They had been at it for hours. Spending the better part of twelve hours cycling between interrogation and research, with little time for rest in between.

They had learned a few things throughout the night. First and foremost, the majority of the profile built by the joint effort of multiple intelligence agencies, was incorrect. Apart from race, all of the other defining factors that could've helped to catch him, such as age, hair colour, skin tone, even the possible place of origin was wrong, claiming he was from the south-west of America, when in reality it was obvious he was Canadian.

He also seemed to have had some sort of training, as while unlikely it was that he had been in any military, he did seem to resist every interrogation tactic they used. Good cop-Bad cop, loud music, left alone in the dark for a few hours, it didn't matter, he kept his lips shut.

"Well that is hopeless." - Jason remarked as he exited the cave's interrogation room for what felt like the hundredth time that night. - "Any progress Brainiac?"

Tim, who had made the trek from Bludhaven to Gotham a few hours ago, when Dick had messaged him that he, Kate and Jason had captured the Calculator, gave a sigh. - "I don't know what type of software his phone has, but it's resisted everything I've tried."

The phone was the only piece of evidence the heroes had managed to get a hold of, as it was the only thing the Calculator had on him, well, except for a cheap plastic watch,  Everything else in the car had been seized by the GCPD, and was still being processed, so they didn't have access to it yet.

Dick's voice cut through the cave. - Well that's just great."

"Ah, you're finally awake." - Jason remarked. - "Have a nice nap there, sleeping beauty."

"Maybe if you had gotten thrown off a truck onto a car, and then off the car onto the road, you'd have more sympathy for me." - He countered, before turning his attention to Tim. - "Do you think there's any chance you can get through his phone's defences."

Tim stretched in his seat. - "Maybe if I had infinite coffee, a super computer the size of the Manor, and the next ten years, I could. But since we don't, I would say it's not possible."

"A simple no would have sufficed." - Dick said, shaking his head. - "Anyway, since we're getting nowhere on the tech front, we turn to Plan B."

"Plan B? Did we even have a Plan B?"

Dick pulled his phone from his pocket. - "Yes we do."

15:02 - Titan's Tower.

   Unsurprisingly, a tower home to a bunch of super-powered teenagers, who had to deal with everything that regular teenagers had to, on top of fighting villains and the pressure of being the next-generation of protectors and guardians of Earth, was a noisy place to live. So it was nice to have a little bit of silence for once.

Since Kori had given them the next few days off, while she was assisting with League business, all of the other younger Titans had chosen to go out for the afternoon, taking the chance to do normal teen activities, like go to the Mall and the cinema. Leaving the tower empty except for a singular member.

Raven had become more introverted over the last few years. While she was never the most sociable person, since the disappearance of her best friend three years ago, she had become as reserved as she had been before they'd first met.
