Omen laid down on his bed in his hide out, he was wondering if he should go through with his plan. It had the biggest chance of success, the best chance of them leaving his lucky Robin alone. Omen sighed, it was the only way, it was the best thing to protect his boyfriend.

Once night fell Omen got up from his bed and teleported to a rooftop near the center of Gotham. He looked at all of the lights, all of the buildings that lit up the dark city and showed that people were living their lives there. Omen took a deep breath and felt the wind move his clothes and hair a bit, a pleasant breeze.

*At the Mountain after Omen left*

Batman walked back to the room near the zeta tubes where the other heroes were waiting for him. Kid Flash looked slightly confused, "Where's Omen?"

"He said he had something he needed to do and left, he didn't tell me what it was though." The young heroes wondered what Omen was doing but Batman interrupted their thoughts. "I do have another reason for coming here other then talking to Omen."

Robin raised an eyebrow, "What is it?"

"If Omen shows up tomorrow I want all of you to take him somewhere, not anywhere that will draw attention to him though."

Superboy looked confused, "So you want us to hang out with him?"

Batman nodded, "He said it himself when he yelled at the League, he was never really allowed to act his own age. He's been isolated for most of his life and when he got out he had to go back again. If he's ever going to get out of that mind set he needs to be around real people and do something normal."

Aqualad nodded, "I will have to agree with you, we will find somewhere to go." Batman nodded and left the mountain and the zeta tubes announced his new name. Then the other two Leaguers left and the new names were once again announced. After several hours of trying to decide where the team should take Omen they figured out where to go.

Once that was done Robin went to Gotham and tried to find Omen, he wasn't at the park. He wasn't anywhere Robin looked and he got worried, when he tried going in a high up rooftop and used his binoculars to find his boyfriend he found him. Omen was standing on the rooftop of a nearby building and Robin got there as fast as he could.

*Omen*

It really was a nice night, it was quite unlike most nights in Gotham but he wasn't complaining. Omen looked at the stars, they were always a beautiful thing to see in the sky on a night like this. There was the feeling again, that sense of calm and peace, like nothing could go wrong in that exact moment.

Everything just seemed to disappear, it was all just white noise that he could easily tune out. It was all going to be gone soon, his existence would become an echo, a memory to those that knew him. Omen took a deep breath and he began to fall from the top of the building when something stopped him.

Omen felt a hand grab his wrist and pull him away from the edge before he was hugged by someone. When Omen realized that it was his little bird he stopped breathing and he felt Robin's grip on his tighten. "What do you think you're doing?"

Omen thought quickly, "Oh nothing really, just going for a nightly flight since I haven't gotten to to that for a long time."

Robin let go of Omen and glared at him, "Don't lie to me, you were going to jump weren't you?"

Robin voice broke just a little bit and Omen instantly felt horrible and he didn't answer for a bit.

"Yes, yes I was."

Robin was on the verge of tears, "Why, why would you try to kill yourself?"

Omen looked at Robin sadly, "I've killed people little bird, why I did doesn't matter because I still killed them. I killed criminals because it was easier to deal with but I still hate myself for it, I shouldn't be allowed to live."
