We're All We Have Left

Teamwork

The next day Danny and Richard woke up at almost the same time, Danny rubbed his eyes as he got up. Danny made breakfast while Richard checked the systems, they both ate together in silence. Once they were done Danny went to take a shower while Richard watched TV, once Danny was done Richard took a shower.

About an hour after that they saw that it was time to go to the mountain and they sighed before they got ready. Richard grabbed his cloak and mask while Danny transformed and grabbed their laptop before he teleported them. They snuck into the mountain once again and they saw that Kid Flash and Red Arrow had yet to show up.

Omen and Hollow sat on the couch and waited for them to show up with the young heroes. When they finally showed up Red Arrow crossed his arms and glared at the two, "Why are you here?"

Hollow smirked, "You'll probably find out the answer soon enough." Red Arrow was going to question what he meant by that but before he could the zeta tubes announced Batman's arrival. Omen and Hollow jumped off the couch and went to greet Batman with the rest of the team.

When all of them had walked into the room and gathered around Batman, with Omen and Hollow staying a bit farther away from everyone, Batman started talking. "I'm not here to give you a mission, I'm here for a few different reasons that concern all of you. The first is that Omen and Hollow have officially joined the team."

The young heroes were all shocked and they looked from Batman, to Omen and Hollow, and back again. Red Arrow looked slightly pissed, "You can't be serious!"

"I'm completely serious, I had to convince most of the League to let them but they're still officially part of the team. Omen and Hollow had a few conditions if they were going to join the team and the League agreed to them."

Superboy glared at Omen and Hollow, "Conditions?"

Omen smiled from under his hood as Batman continued, "They pointed out things that the League should have addressed before now. You'll all be receiving more combat training, you'll also be trained in stealth and taught how to form better plans for executing your missions."

Artemis looked shocked, "Are you kidding me?! We're getting more training because two random kids said so?!"

Batman felt a bit of anger start to surface, he hid the emotion but he was a bit surprised by his reaction. "The League was already planning on having you train more but Omen and Hollow pointed out a few more issues that we needed to address. You'll all receive training every day from Black Canary, you'll be trained in stealth and battle planning every other day by me."

"Omen and Hollow will be joining you but because they've already proven to be more skilled then even most, if not all, of the League they might also help teach you. Black Canary should be here soon to train you today, I'll train you tomorrow." A few seconds later the zeta tubes announced Black Canary's arrival and she looked at the young heroes.

Black Canary mentally sighed, she wasn't sure how to feel about Omen and Hollow being on the team. "Since Omen and Hollow are officially part of the team they'll be required to train with all of you."

Megan looked slightly concerned, "But isn't Omen still hurt?" The young heroes seemed to suddenly remember that Omen was hurt and they looked at him.

Aqualad crossed his arms, "He was also shot in the shoulder with an arrow before."

Omen rolled his eyes, "I'm fine, I'm tougher then I look."

Black Canary gave him a skeptical look, "I heard about your injuries, you shouldn't be training in that state."

Omen just smirked, "I've got a few tricks up my sleeve."

Black Canary rolled her eyes, "Fine, I'll let you spar." Omen's smirk widened due to his victory before Black Canary continued, "You and Hollow can train together, you're up first."

The two walked to the training area and they stood on opposite sides to wait for the fight to officially start. After Black Canary gave them the go ahead the two smirked, Hollow was the one to attack first. Hollow moved with a surprising amount of speed toward Omen to punch him but the other teen caught his fist.

Omen kicked Hollow in the stomach and he skidded backward, Omen ran at Hollow and the cloaked boy flipped over Omen. Hollow tried to kick Omen in the back but Omen did a tuck and roll to avoid it and he stopped in a crouch. Omen turned in Hollow's direction while he was still close to the ground and lunged at him.

Hollow backed up a bit before he ducked to the side and avoided Omen's punch. Hollow landed a kick on Omen's back but he didn't fall, the two smirked at each other. Omen sent a kick at Hollow, Hollow dodged and retaliated with a punch which Omen ducked under.

Hollow tried to trip Omen, the armed teen jumped back to avoid it and the two decided to get a bit more serious. They both moved with inhuman speed sending one attack after another at each other, neither of them tripped up or slowed down. They did flips and other tricks to avoid the other as well as to have a bit of fun, they still weren't serious.

The heroes eyes widened as they watched the two fight, they hated to admit it but they were amateurs compared to them. Even Black Canary wasn't at their level, none of them could ever hope of defeating them, they wondered how good they were with weapons. It was hard to imagine that Omen was injured, he was still healing and yet he easily kept up with Hollow.

They both landed several hits but neither of them were fazed, after the two fought for over fifteen minutes they both jumped away from the other. They both moved in sync and they fell backward onto the floor which ended the fight in a tie, the heroes were dumbfounded. Omen did a backflip from where he was lying down and he walked over to Hollow and offered his hand.

Hollow took his partner's hand and Omen helped him stand up, they walked off of the training area. The two saw the looks on the heroes faces and they both smirked before Hollow spoke, "This is why you shouldn't underestimate us."

Omen rolled his shoulder and he felt a bit of pain since it hadn't completely healed. Of course that wasn't going to stop him from using it and doing whatever he wanted to do. Omen and Hollow watched the young heroes train and they were very disappointed, very disappointed indeed. The two ended up looking away not even a minute after each fight started because it was so bad.

To any normal person they might not seem that bad but to two people that were trained to be better then even the league of shadows this was painful. They were uncoordinated, slow, and Omen thought that small children could fight better then this team. Black Canary looked at Omen and Hollow, "So what do you think of the team so far?"

Omen looked at her, "I am seriously questioning how they aren't dead yet."

Hollow shook his head sadly, "I regret joining this team, I didn't think it would be this bad and my standards were pretty low to begin with."

The young heroes look insulted and Omen mentally sighed, "Let me sum this up. Training isn't the only thing that they need, what they're missing is even more important then that. There are two things, the first is that they need to be more observant and the second is that they aren't acting like a team."

Aqualad raised an eyebrow, "What are you talking about?"

Omen crossed his arms, "None of you pay attention to some of the finer details when your fighting. The position of your teammates and enemies is one, I don't think I need to point out every little thing you forget about in a fight."

Hollow spoke, "And now for point two, you're all doing things your way, in one on one fights it isn't much of a problem but it is when your fighting together. Your impulsive, you don't think about your teammates, you've been a team for three years and it's a constant dilemma. Your working as individuals, not a team, it makes it easier to take you down because you don't have each others backs."

A few of the heroes looked a bit guilty after Hollow stopped talking and Omen took over. "Hollow and I work well together for a reason, we help the other and protect each other. None of you take your teammates well beings into consideration while you're fighting so you mess up. One of you gets messed up by another and it eventually causes all of you to screw up, you need to work as a team."

Red Arrow crossed his arms, "Let me guess, you have some sort of crazy plan to get us to work together."

The two looked at each other and smirked before Hollow answered, "Well now that you mention it."
