Robin's P.O.V

I grabbed the handle of King Tut's sphinx, not knowing how big of a mistake I was making. Batman was on the other side, checking for a hidden entrance. I pulled the handle. It came clean off and a knife popped out. I barely managed to get out of the way. A burning pain in my left side told me I didn't move soon enough. I let myself wince, but nothing more. Batman could not know.

"Find anything?" He asked. I quickly put the handle back, disguising the knife.

"Just a handle," I replied.

"Don't touch that handle! It could be trapped," Batman ordered. 

'Don't worry. I know,' I thought. Batman tied a rope to the handle, then moved back. Ieapt down, keeping my left side hidden. Batman pulled the rope, and the knife popped out again. This time, a red liquid was dripping. Batman climbed back up to get a sample. I had forgotten about the crowd behind us until

"BATMAN! ROBIN WAS HIT WITH THAT KNIFE! GET HIM TO THE HOSPITAL!"

Boy, did I have a long list of things I wanted to say to that person. Batman leapt back down by my side. 

"Where?" He asked. I was about to lie and say that the person was full of it when he saw the wound.

He got me to the Bat-Mobile and got the first aid. Even the dumbest of people could tell Batman was furious with me for not telling him.
