"Here." Oracle led the three girls into a secret room in the cave, "I'll coordinate from here. Can you two maybe go out and fight him while I try to unlock the lockdown?"

"Yeah! This'll be a piece of pecan pie!" Batgirl said as she cracked her knuckles.

"Destiny, you'll stay here, right?" Oracle asked, but she noticed Destiny was in the corner, and she had changed into her superhero uniform.

"Can I go out and fight with them?" Destiny questioned.

"Are you able to, Destiny?" Oracle asked.

"I don't go by Destiny. In this outfit, I'm Falcon." Falcon said, "and yes. I'm here to fight with the team, am I not?"

Oracle stared at her in shock, then nodded,

"Right. Then go ahead. I'll see if I can find some back-up, call in Zatanna. Batgirl, you're squad leader. We'll keep in touch with the comm, so stay alert."

"Alright. Let's go!" Batgirl gestured for Speedy and Falcon to follow, and they ran out into the hallway.

"The cave is big. Are we going to let him find us, or are we going to find him?" Falcon questioned.

"Do you speak with questions all the time?" Speedy asked.

"No." Falcon replied, "I don't. It's just... force of habit... My dad always asked--"

"Shh..." Batgirl shushed them as they peeked around a corner into the mission briefing room. They heard an explosion in the training room, and so they ran there.

As soon as they got there, however, the explosion was a handful of smoke bombs.

"Who uses this many smoke bombs?!" Falcon coughed as they all tried to peer through the smoke.

"Wait, is there someone else here?!" Speedy asked.

"Just because you filled the room with smoke doesn't mean I can't find you, Brat!!" they heard Klarion screech. They saw his red balls of magic in his hands, and he was moving further away from the door as he moved to the corner of the large training room, but the girls stayed in the doorway. Suddenly, a figure jumped down right in front of them, covered Speedy's mouth before she could scream, and shoved them all out of the doorway.

"Move, move. We'll see if we could lock him in there." The figure said.

"ROBIN?!?!?! YOU'VE BEEN HERE THE WHOLE TIME?!" Batgirl shouted softly, "WHY DIDN'T YOU FIND US SOONER?!"

"I was going after the kill." Robin replied as he shut and locked the door.

"Is there anyone else here?" Speedy asked.

"No. We're the only ones. We're all on our own." Robin replied as he turned to look at each of them. He stopped and stared at Falcon,

"Who's this?" both Robin and Falcon asked at the same time, then they just stared at each other.
