Behind

Chapter 18- Behind

§

Justice is such a big word to use. At least that is what Dick Grayson thinks. People get kidnapped, murdered, taken away from their family or their innocence while whoever caused those events, sits in their safely home and watching TV with bunches of money behind them. Now, is it justice?

Dick was sitting there, with his sunglasses to protect his ID, tied up by his arms, hands, legs and ankles to the chair. At least, Elisha decided it'd be better to let him stay without blindfold. But still, after a long chat, she gagged him again.

He was out of protection and defense. Right now, some men would come up to him, take his sunglasses off and learn who he is. Then, why didn't they just do that?

Hold up, before he got knocked off, didn't just Johannes say he would always remember those blue eyes?! So, he knew who the Famous Boy Wonder is...

Dick wouldn't just let Johannes sell him to a guy who wanted to train him for bad. He had to escape immediately. He had to bring the killer to The Justice League.

Ropes were too tight but if he could just break the chair with jumping down*, he could get rid off the ropes too. But first, he had to make Elisha get out of the room.

Suddenly, there were knocks on the other side of the door. "Open the freaking door, Elisha!" Dick was one hundred percent sure, he knew that voice. It was Johannes!

Elisha immediately walked up to the door and opened it with such hurry. "Jo, the kid got up, like, two hours ago. He is tied up and gagged. He can't escape." she said.

Johannes nodded and walked inside to see the little boy tied up and gagged like Elisha said. He smirked evilly and got closer to the young hero. Kneeled down to reach his eye level before grabbing each sides Dick's sunglasses. "Would you mind?"

Dick growled and jerked his head to the behind to get rid off the killer's hands. Johannes frowned. "You do. But I am sure it won't be a problem while Elisha isn't around." He turned to the woman. "Get the hell out of here!" Elisha left the room without any complications.

"I already know your identity but I just want to talk to Richard. Not Robin." Johannes said. He grinned at Dick's confused face. Then, he gripped the gag with his hands and ripped it out of younger boy's mouth. Without any warnings, the man took of Dick's glasses, too.

Shocked blue eyes found their way into the happy, crazy eyes. "How do you know?!" Johannes just chuckled. "You thought I was an ordinary killer? C'mon, I thought you were smarter than that! I have a connection with a lot of Gotham villains. Also, The ones like Deathstroke too."

"Who is Deathstroke?" Dick asked. The older guy turned his back to the blue eyed boy. Sighed. "He is Slade Wilson. Who wants to buy you like Eli-"

"I am not a property to buy!" Dick interrupted him bravely just to get a hard slap on his right cheek. "Shut up, brat!" He paused and calmed down. "You know what? I know that you don't want to go back to your little team. I know that you know they don't like you."

Dick Grayson was frozen at his place. No words to get out of his mouth and no tears to escape from his eyes. Just frozen.

Johannes continued to list about what did he know about Hero's life. "I bet you are right. They are just afraid of Batman. That is they let you stay with them. If he wouldn't be your mentor, you wouldn't be here too." And again, his dark chuckle and smirk was seen on his evil face. "What about Batman? Don't you think the Dark Knight would want a trash like you? A thirteen year old worthless, clumsy brat who I easily caught. He just feels bad for you. That is all."

Dick felt tears rolling down his face. Finally, he was breaking down. Because little hero had enough. "... I know." He whispered quiet and softly. He knew and that was enough.

Johannes brought his lips next to Dick's ears. "These are all behind you. These are all your past. Now, a future is waiting for you. A new, dark future."

Dick lowered his head to look at his tied up legs. He sighed deeply and let his silent tears roll down from his eyes. He didn't care. Not anymore.

That was enough and he was tired. For once, he just let the emotions take over him as Johannes left the room with a smirk on his face.
