Batman's POV

Robin(Damian) were patrolling the streets of this city I have vowed to protect for decades,I was perched on a gargoyle in the North part of the city.

"Why do you insist on going out on nights like this,no crime or and activity what's so ever." Robin spoke for the first time in a while.

I glance over at him,he had his arms fold and leaned against the wall of the building were where observer from.

"If you don't like it you can always be on monitor duty with Alfred." I growl lowly not with anger,but with vex.

The only sound was the heavy rain pouring on my cape and cowl,the even so often of Robin's swears in Arabic and the clashes of thunder.

A manic laugh broke me out of my daze.

"Looks like the clowns out again." Robin grabbed his grapple.

I shot my grapple hook,and swung across a block in one swift move,I then glided as a clash of thunder and a strike of lighting,I landed on a rooftop and looked down into the alley below.

"Joker is at it again," I start to think of this mad mans next plot and what stakes are being risen this time.

"What was your first guess?" Robin replies coldly.

I take my binoculars from the left side of my belt and zoomed down into the alley.

Three goons dressed as Jokers goons hold their guns at a woman on the ground sobbing.

"This is taking to long!" Robin snapped,he threw a smoke bomb below and jumps down.

"Robin!" I yell but he's out ear shot.

He lands next to a goon,he throws two batrangs disarming the goon. He kicks in the back and punches one in the gut before snapping the others arm and kicking him in the chest sending him into the bins and trash.

The next one he upper cuts and lands a kick on the back of his head taking him out on impacted of the ground.

The last one his doesn't see,I drop down taking him out with one punch and throw him against the wall before closing my cape and walk towards the woman in the corner.

"Miss?"

She wipers and sobs,"Don't-t hurt-t me."

I stop a few feet from her before moving closer,the voice sounds familiar.

"Ma'am?"

She sobs but then chuckles,"Dumb bats." She kicks me in the chest.

I she her stand up,she throws her cap and brown coat and it's Harley.

"Quinn." Robin hisses.

"Oh look bird boy is all cute,but no time for catch up Mister J what's a word with you." She laughs her sick laugh before throwing a heart shape device.

"What the--

"Robin." I run and push him out the way but I don't make it in time,I start coughing and gagging as the pink smoke is released.

"Robin...run..get..he..l...p" I feel tried and very thing starts to spin before I black out.

Robin's POV

I see Father fall to the ground,I feel the drug coming towards me.

"Can't out run the sleep birdboy." Quinn grinned,with a hand on her waist a sick smile spreading across her face.

"We'll see about that harlet." I throw two gold tubes the on impact released a dark blue mist getting rid of the smoke but it doesn't stop the drug from working just from spreading.

She coughs before reaching for her mallet,"You need to learn manners,"

I feel the drug taking affect,I grapple to a high point and press the panic button on my suit.

"Robin what's wrong!?!" Gordon's voice rings in my ear.

"Quinn....drug....Fatherrr--r......help..." I grapple a few buildings away but crash in the side of it and pass out. 

The last thing I see a clash of lighting before everything went black.

Aria's POV

I had just got a call from Dick saying to get to the manor,once I got there as soon as I could.

I went to the cave where Dick,Jason,Tim,Barbara and Alfred were.

"What happened?!" I take my motorcycle helmet off and slam it on the table.

"Hey...hey claim down." Dick walk over to me.

I growl,"Where is he?"

He looks to his left,in a flash I'm in the medical bay and there's Damian on a metal bed breathing slowly with a tank of pure oxygen.

I sit next to him and push his hair back and give me a peck on the forehead,and then I notice a certain brooding father is missing.

"Where's Dad?" I turn towards them.

The boys look at a loss for word and Alfred gives me a sorrowful look.

"Miss,were afraid that Miss Quinn and the Joker took your Father earlier tonight." Alfred sighed.

I felt every ounce of anger ready to pop.

"Well have you found him." I hiss.

"No," Barbara wheels over to the computer and begins to type," But get this,a ten minutes  before he was drugged."

Tim looked at the screen and glared at the data,"That makes no sense Batman wouldn't just turn off his tracker in the middle of a fight."

Jason took a drag from his cigarette,"What if he didn't." He went to take another drag before Alfred ripped it from his mouth and scowling him with one  look.

"He may have a point," Dick grinned,"Barbara look for the record and see when the tracker stopped working."

Before he could finish a ding and a box appeared on the screen.

"This is the time is and place and how the tracker was disabled."

I cross my arms and raise a brow at the screen,"Uh?"

"The signal was disrupted." Tim states flatly.

"Oh."

We heard a shuffle of feet,"It's all my fault." 

I turned and saw Damian,he was sulking which was more of Tim's thing. He had dark circles around his eyes, beads of sweat rolling down his face and his hair matted down to his head.

"Hey get some rest bud,it wasn't your fault." I pat him on the shoulder.

"But if I had listened to father this wouldn't have happened." A single tear rolled down his cheek,I wrapped him in a tight hug.

"Hey it's okay,want to know why?"

He nodded wiping the new strings of tears.


I grinned,"Because I'm your big Sister and I won't let anything bad happen to you." I hug him tightly.

"Alfred will take you upstairs and make sure you are back at full strength,Barbara see if you can track where the disruption came from. Tim,Jason go back to the alley and see if you can gather and samples of the drug. Dick you and me will hit the streets,suit up." I order.

"Like Father like daughter." Jason smirks.

I crack my neck and turn to him,"And I can kick your ass just like him to,move.Out."

He grumbles and does what he's told but that doesn't stop the giggles and laughs as I go grab my suit.
