After that we just sat aimlessly in the subway station. Dicks blood had stained my hand and no matter what I couldn't get it off. But out of all of us, Wally took Artemis's death the hardest. We tried to feed him part of our rations but he refused. "Wally, you need to eat!" Robin finally burst. He didn't respond. "Wally, I am done. You want to be the hero Artemis expects but to do that you Get Off. Your Ass." I said walking over to him and hauling him up from his sitting position.
"How would you know what Artemis wants for me? It's your fault she's dead." Wally said harshly then realized what he said. "I didn't mean-" I cut him off. "Yeah, you're right. It's all my fault that Artemis is dead. That Roy, M'gann, Superboy and my brother are captured by our once mentors or missing. Everything is my fault." I said walking away from Wally and Robin to sit at the edge of the platform.
"Hey. I didn't mean that. It's just-it's just us now." Wally apologized, Dick in tow. "I know. I don't blame you." I forgave him and sighed. "Let's toughen up. We need to find Joker. If Batman's still alive he can help us with the justice league problem." I said brushing myself off. "How do we find the Joker?" Robin asked.
"We do exactly what he wants. Give him our location." I said and climbed out of the train station. Once outside, the sunlight hurt my eyes but I just put a hand over my face and scanned the area.
I found a place where we would be noticed and motioned to KF and Robin. It'll help that we were all in costume. "What we'll do is show off that we are here and it would probably influence the Joker to come to us." I explained my plan. "That's a great plan and all but I have a better one." Wally said looking past me.
"What?" I asked. "Fight off them. That'll attract attention real fast." Wally said and I looked behind my to find Black Canary and Red Tornado. "We can't beat them." I deadpanned. "Your right we can't. But we need to try." Robin said squeezing my hand. "Let's do this, after all heroes never die." Wally said putting on his goggles and zooming off.
"This won't turn out well." I sighed before running towards the two superheroes. I fought Black Canary on the ground with Robin as Wally used his super speed to diminish Red Tornado's tornados.
I was flung backwards by one of Canary's screams and destroyed a car. "Come on Vertis." I grumbled to myself and got up charging at the ground again. I dodged all of Canary's attacks and resulted to hand-to-hand combat. Right as she was about to scream again I punched her in the head hard with my metal arm rendering her unconscious. Now all three of us focused on Red.
Suddenly he turns around and flys away. Just like that. "What was that about?" I asked but we soon focused on other problems when we heard hysterically laughter. "Hey little boy blunder." The Joker's voice raised over the crowds screaming. "What do you want Joker?" I asked. Even though this was all part of the plan we had to make it realistic.
"Oh just checking up on my favorite person in the world. How's Atlantis by the way- oh wait I forgot, you can't go there anymore!" The joker cackled and Robin had to restrain me from tearing the Joker apart.
"You have ten seconds to tell us what you're doing here or I'm letting her go." Robin threatened. "Oh my! I'm so SCARED!" The Joker laughed. "What do WANT!" I yelled at him in a frustrated manner.
"You!" The Joker said and catching us all off guard he shot us with his portal or teleportation gun.
