Batman: The Enemy Within (Male Reader Robin)

Chapter 16: Motley Crew

Robin's POV

I am watching over Gotham City while Bruce is still with the Pact. Bruce called me and told me that him, John, and someone who I thought wouldn't see again, Catwoman, are going back to Riddler's hideout. I also heard that Bane managed to escape the Agency, even though he was weaker than normal.

Robin: Nothing so far...

The streets seemed normal at the moment. But then I suddenly gunshots. I see cop cars chasing another car that had thugs shooting back at them. I glide down and land on top of the car and hold on. I use my staff to break through the window of the drivers side of the car. I pull the driver out of the car and jump off the car. The car then starts to crash. I land on the ground and see the cops getting out of their own cars to arrest the thugs.

Cop: Thank you, Robin.

I nod and grapple away.

Timeskip

I find myself at an abandoned warehouse. I see some thugs stacking up weapons and drugs inside. I decide to drop down in the warehouse. The thugs see me.

Thug 1: Well, well, look who decided to show up. Robin, right? Where's Batman? Forgot about you?

I smirk while cracking my knuckles. The thugs start to surround me. I then take out my staff, causing the thugs to exchange glances, their expressions shifting from overconfidence to uncertainty.

Thug 2: We outnumber you, kid. You're gonna regret stepping into our territory. Batman ain't here to help you.

Then without hesitation, the thugs charge at me, fists swinging. I dodge their attacks. I retaliate with quick strikes and well-timed counters, taking down the thugs one by one. I use my staff to disarm the thugs. As the fight continues, I swiftly move from one thug to another. I manage to use my staff and my strikes to take down the thugs. I see that there is one more thug standing, looking at me with fear. The thug charges at me, swinging a metal pipe. I avoid the blows, countering with a spin kick that sends the thug falling to the ground. I stand over the defeated thugs, catching my breath. I survey the scene, and turn on my comms.

Robin: Alfred, call the GCPD and send them to my location. There's drugs and weapons here.

Alfred: You got it, master L/N.

I then grapple away.

Timeskip

I am once again on the rooftops of Gotham City. Again the streets are empty. But a few minutes later. I see a citizen walking down the sidewalk. I instantly recognize her... Barbara...

Robin: Barbara? What's she doing out here alone?

She's on her phone while she's walking down the sidewalk. As she continues to walk. I see a vehicle driving down the road that's coming towards her.

Robin: Wait a minute...

I see a group of men in hoodies get out of the vehicle and start approaching her. She sees them and tries to run. They chase her down to an alleyway. They finally grab her and try dragging her to the vehicle. Barbara starts screaming for help.

Robin: Barbara!

I quickly glide down and land on the ground.

Robin: LET HER GO!

They stop dragging her and they all look at me.

Barbara: Robin!

Thug: Robin?

I throw a shuriken at one of the thugs trying to drag Barbara, knocking him out.

Thug 2: GET HIM!!!

They let go of Barbara and run after me. I quickly get out my staff and swing it at them. I hit each thug in the head, knocking them all down. The last thug tried charging me, but I quickly jab him in the face, I then jump in the air and kick him down to the ground, knocking him out. I then look at Barbara.
