The Tale of Black Jaguar (Young Justice Fanfic)

confrontation

I can't help this feeling, nagging, but almost... hopeful. It's so confusing. I have no plan of escape, and yet I feel like there will be change. Like once again, I will be free...

No.

That's foolish thinking. Why now, of all times will things get better?

And yet...

With the team

"Who is this guy were gonna stop, anyway?" Wally asked as the bioship landed only a few buildings away from their destination.

"His name is Alexander McCoy. Apparently he's a multi millionaire with to much time and some bad hobbies." Robin responded simply as they exited the bio ship.

"What else would you expect from a rich person? They all think they're so much better than everybody else." Artemis said with a look of pure disgust.

There was a pause, Kid flash and robin exchanged glances, but said nothing. "So..." miss Martian said breaking the tense silence. "Whats the plan?" Aqualad stepped forwards, gaining the others attention, "I'll explain," aqualad said, "robin, if you please." Robin understood what aqualad was asking and pulled up a image of the mansion they would be infiltrating. He nodded to robin in acknowledgement and continued, "this it the original schematics of the mansion when it was built, every room is charted and we know that wouldn't be where he would be keeping the animals. But there was one large gap within the house, McCoy turned that area into another room, which we found out thanks to secret personnel in the construction industries. What McCoy put in this room was never discovered, therefore being the best place to look." Aqualad explained, "There will be many precautions we have to take, the security levels are extreme, and if we are caught there will be consequences. so we can't mess up. Understood?" The team nodded.

"Good, so here's the plan, robin, you will get to the room through the air vent, you'll more than likely be the first one there so I want you to scout out the area. You shouldn't come across any trouble. Artemis, miss Martian, and superboy, the suspected room should have a skylight, you will enter from there. The roof will have security precautions, so be careful and be alert. Kid flash, you and I will scout out the rest of the building unnoticed then go to the room from the inside. Are we all clear?" The team nodded, ready to begin. "Com'on let's do this already!" Exclaimed kid flash.

"Move out." Aqualad confirmed.

With that, the team parted ways.

Robin's P.O.V.

As I navigated through the maze of air vents using a schematics I hacked I began to get a strange feeling.

Believe me, I'm completely traught, but a little uneasy. I had a bad feeling.

I have a feeling I'm not gonna like whatever I find in that room.

My unease didn't grow as I got nearer, but it didn't fade either. Once I got to the room I quietly removed the air vent plate and jumped out of it, landing quietly in the room.

What is saw shocked me.

The animals in the room looked lifeless, as if they had lost their will to fight.

As if the lost all hope.

I couldn't help but feel pity for the animals as I walked through the arrangement of cages.

Black Jaguar's P.O.V.

My head was resting on my paws as I lay there in boredom, my eyes were closed.
