Red Robin pov

The moment me and Robin are pulled back in the building plants start to cover my entire body. I hear Dami scream but can't do anything right now. In just a few seconds my entire body is coverd in vines. The spikes hurt everywere and I have to bite my lip not to scream. Then I hear footsteps.

'Ah, looks like my babies caught two little birdies.'

'Bring them to the basement.'

'Shut up. I might work for you right now, but that doesn't mean you can order me around.'

I feel the plants dragging me somewhere. And the spikes are making wounds over my entire body. I try to strugle, but it only gets worse.

'Stop struggeling you stupid boys. Or else I'll have my babies cut you open like pigs.'

Knowing she means it, I stop, but I know Damian won't. I can hear him curse and scream at Ivy to let him go. Then I hear a scream of pain and silence.

'Robin?'

'Shut up Red Robin. Or else I'll poisen you to.'

Poisen? She didn't really poisen him right? He's the grandson of Ra's Al Guhl, the league wouldn't want him dead, right? Never mind. It's the league. They probably don't care. We get dragged down a lot of stairs and Ivy doesn't care about us getting hurt.

'Hang them up.'

I feel myself being lifted up in the air by my feet. Hanging upside down was never my favorite thing in the world.

Nightwing pov

Batman is mad. And with mad I mean 'wanting to kill everything in his way' kind of mad. Me and Hood just stans on the edge of the building and listening to a scream from the other building.

'We have to get in there.'

Batman says. No shit sherlock. The point is, the league is already there. Thalia isn't yet, but she can't be far behind.

'Where do you think they're keeping them?'

'The basement. I planted a bug and heard them say it. They're probably being well guarded and they might not be in a state to defend themself. We need to put down as many men as we can before we get to the boys.'

Me and Jason nod. That would be a good plan, but we don't know when the rest of the league gets here. This needs to happen fast. After Batman gives us the sign we make our way to the building. Immediately we're surounded, but it's nothing my awsomeness can't handle.

'Nightwing, make your way to the basement. We'll cover you.'

Batman says over the comm. I nod and make my way to the basement stairs. I kick some league guys against there head, but they're a little harder to knock out than normal criminals. When I make my way down the basement I'm faced with none other then Poisen Ivy herself.

'Well, well, well. If it isn't the big bird himself. Have you come to take back the little ones?'

From the corner of my eye I see RR and Robin hanging upside down completely covered in vines with spikes. A little pool of blood is underneath them from all the wounds. I need to get them out of here.

'Let's just get this over with Ivy.'

She smiles. God I hate her smile. I speed forward and try to avoid the plants that are trying to cut me. It doesn't really help, cause I still get some cuts, but I make my way to Ivy and knock her out with a swift kick to her head. She'll be okay, I think. Not that I care. I quickly run to Tim and cut the vines he's coverd in. He has wounds al over his body and looks a little pale.

'Help Robin. I think Ivy poisened him.'

I carefully set him down against the wall and go to Dami. He has less cuts than Tim, but is unconscious and he's breathing heavely. I lift him up and Tim climbs on my back.

'I've got the boys. Coming up now. Red Robin is bleeding a lot and Robin is poisened.'

I hear Hood curse over the comm. I run upstairs and see Hood and Bats still fighting the league men. Hood takes Dami over from me as we slowly make our way towards the exit.

'No!'

I turn around and see...Thalia. Thalia Al Guhl. She looks angry and her eyes fall on Damian.

'Nightwing, we have to go. Now!'

I follow the others. After a few blocks we lose the league and finally we get back to the cave. We lay Dami and Tim down on the medical bed. Tim just has a lot of cuts but Dami is still unconscious.

'Is he really poisened?'

Jason asks. Bruce shakes his head.

'Thalia wouldn't do that. They probably gave him something to knock him out. I'll give him something to neutralise it and then he should be fine.'

'What are we going to tell him? We all know he's the reason she's back. Are we going to tell him?'

We look at Bruce but he waits a long time before he answers.

'We have no choice. The league will come for him and he has to be prepared. We all have to be prepared.'
