Hello everyone

This time the team meets the bat bros. This is set after season two (and vaguely after Renegade) so tensions are still a bit high. This was suggested by TheChickenOfJustice, thanks.

Nightwing really isn't doing alright so WARNING for implied suicidal thoughts (it isn't said explicitly but it is implied)

Anyway as usual I own nothing, apologise for grammar, spelling and OCCness. Also sorry for any inaccuracies with characters.

Oh, and ShadowLifeHI I do requests, yes.

Hope you enjoy.

The trouble started with Batman. More specifically Batman being off world, leaving Nightwing to once again balance his civilian life, the team, and duties as Nightwing. It didn't help that it had been chaos in Gotham for the past week as there had been a breakout at Arkham which led to Nightwing almost collapsing until Agent A called in some help. He had been running himself thin again and Alfred had finally had enough off it and put his foot down.

That help meant his younger brothers and sisters. The siblings that tended to cause more chaos and disasters then half the villains they faced, though they were better than the Arkham break out, well just. However, when the Bat Cave received an emergency call from the team it wasn't really the best time. Nightwing was currently bleeding from a couple bullet wounds and stab marks, plus he was suffering from burns due to an explosion that he'd narrowly escaped from.

Grudgingly it was decided however, they couldn't avoid it and someone would have to go. Nightwing was pretty much out of the question due to his injuries and (Red) Robin was currently passed out from exhaustion on the floor (with Jason sniggering and prodding the sleepy bird with his foot every so often). Alfred was keeping an eye on the injured pair, having already drugged Nightwing unconscious so he wouldn't try and answer the call anyway. Cass and Steph were out of the question as they were currently chasing a lead about a former (and hopefully future) inmate of Arkham. Barbara couldn't even be sent as she was out of town with her dad.

So Jason and Damian grudgingly decided while the two birds were unconscious, that they would take their brother's places and see what the team wanted. Getting changed; Jason as Red Hood and Damian in his own version of the Robin costume, they glanced at the unconscious birds before nodding at each other and entering the zeta-tubes that would take them to the team. The team better be ready for the surprise coming their way.

The team on the other hand, were currently experiencing problems with a group of thugs in Happy Harbour. Not far from the site of the currently in-construction Mount Justice. Despite being far more skilled the group of tired heroes were outnumbered and had been caught unaware when they had been visiting Mount Justice to see the progress of the rebuilding effort. Fearing they were about to be taken out Beast Boy had pressed his emergency call button that would usually summon Batman but with him being off-world it would hopefully warn the closest person - Nightwing. Robin and Batgirl would also be appreciated but they knew they were busy either away or with the breakout in Gotham, which was why they weren't there with the team in the first place.

Unfortunately for them no help had come, leaving them to be overtaken and tied up, by thugs no less, how embarrassing. Any time they tried to even mouth a word to each other a thug would appear threateningly. The team was unlucky they didn't have any senior members with them, it was just the younger members - Beast Boy, Lagoon Boy, Wonder Girl, Blue Beetle, Impulse, Guardian, Bumblebee and Static. With no Miss Martian it meant there was no mind link to make communication easier.
