"Okay, well, we better get going..." Dick said looking around,

"Yeah, we'll take the vents to get our things, its safer" Edd said smiling slightly.

Dick grinned running off to the nearest vent, Edward ran after him and kicked the vent off, "Laidies first" he smirked to the young boy.

"Yeah, go on then" Dick grinned, Edd rolled his eyes, "Just go in" he huffed.

"Whatever" Dick smirked getting in.

"Oh, we have to cut through Johnny's room" Edward said.

"Okay, that's Scarecrow, right?" Dick asked.

"Yep, actually, I think I should go first if you don't want a face full of fear gas"

"Not really, no" Dick said, not wanting a face of fear gas.

Riddler chuckled, "Not a big fan of Johnny boy?" he asked as dick crawled thurther through the vents.

"Nah, Johnny's okay, his toxin, noooot so much" Dick said smiling slightly.

"Okay, oh, take a left then two rights!" Ed said, Dick obayed and smiled crawling around. We then came up to an opening with a small creepy room with hay covering the floor and spidrwebs hung in the corner.

"Looks cozy" Dick smirked.

"Yeah yeah" Edward said getting out the creaky vent and walking over the hay, Dick lept out the vent and followed him.

"Crow?" Edward asked wearily whilst looking around the room.

"He's not gunna leap out is he?" Dick asked looking up and frowning at the taller man.

"Johnny? No he's smarter then that, but Crow..." Edd said trailing off, Dick was then on high alert.

"What do you want Riddler?! And why is there a terrified child with you" Crow asked/hissed. Dick clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, "I'm not terrified Johnathan!" Richard growled. There was a shifting noise then Crow spoke again, still not showing himself.

"It's Scarecrow! And I can smell it coming off you!" He snarled back, Dick raised an eyebrow "...That's not right..." Dick mumbled.

"Why do you bring a midget Edward?" Scarecrow smirked, "Maybe bringing me a test subject?"

"... Edward, you sure this was a good idea?" Dick asks in a mumble, Edward looks down at the boy then looks up shaking his head "Crow, behave! If you let us through you can come with us or we can get you something" Edd yells, Dick smiles slightly then Scarecrow steps out from behind them. Dick whipped around and was shortly followed by Edward.

Scarecrow ran a finger over his cheek before sadly mumbling: "They took my face... I want it back!" Dick raised his eyebrow again, "Please say your referring to your mask" he sighed.

"I'm hoping" Edward muttred.

"Crane?" Dick asks.

"SCARECROW!" He screeches, Dick flinches at his outburst, his crystal blue eyes widening.

"Okay, Scarecrow then!" Dick says putting his hands up in surrender.

"This" he says pointing to his face "Is Johnnys, not mine I want my face!" He says sadly.

"Okay, you help and we'll get your... face" Dick says,

"Fine" scarecrow sighs, "I also want my friend"

"Friend?" Edward asks.

"Later, we need to get out first." Scarecrow mutters.

"Okay, can we go?" Dick asks.

"Sure" scarecrow smirks, moving out the way "... Robin" Scarecrow says, his smirk widening.

"Shiz sticks..." Dick mumbled.

Scarecrows smirk grew even more "I heard you killed Bruce? meaning Bats is gone"

" No... I-I-I..." he gritted his teeth and looked down, "Look, it wasn't me, okay?"

"Sure it wasn't" Crow said with fake comfort.

Dick growled and punched Scarecrow in the face, despite the fact he couldn't feel pain.

"Ouch, that hurt so much" Crow said rubbing his cheek in fake pain.

"It wasn't supposed to Mister I-don't-feel-pain" Dick spat.

Scarecrow laughed and Edd looked slightly taken aback.

"Haha, seems without the Bat you've grown a pair!" he laughed.

"F - you!" Dick growled kicking his knee. Edward then pulled the two apart "Both of you stop! Crow, let John out, I want to see him, not you!"

"Same" Dick growled whilst glaring at Scarecrow.

Scarecrow rolled his eyes "Fine, only cause I'm sick of your faces, not because you can control me!"

"Sure we can't" Dick said, cheekily mimicking Scarecrows fake comfort from earlier. Scarecrow sent him a glare before shaking his head.

(AN. In this im having Scarecrow have MPD aka Multiple Personality disorder, I don't think he really has it but I wanted him to for this story)

"Hello Jonathan" Edward greeted.

"Hello Edward, Richard" he nodds, "I was sleeping, why did you wake me and why does my face hurt?" He asks.

"Yeah, sorry about that, Scarecrow kind of got annoying..."

"Hmm" He humms

"Sorry John, well, we need your help"

"With what?" Johnathan asks whilst turning to a desk and picking up a cannister and plays with it. He then almost drops and smashes it causing Edward to look very uncomfortable,

"Eedddddd" Dick mumbled stepping back to stand beside him. Johnathan smirks "I'm not going to use it, I promised I wouldn't use you as a test subject whilst you were in Arkham, remember Edward" He says smirking.

"And... me?" Dick asks.

"I'm not in the mood at the moment" Johnathan says simply. He yauns then grinns sickly, "But you being terrified is enough for me at the moment" he grinns.

Dick was about to yell something back but managed to keep it back, and just said, "Okay, well, I need my stuff, so can we go?"

"Yes, I need my mask, suit and glove" Johnathan smiled.

"And I need to get my stuff aswell"

"We guessed, anyway, we better leave"

Dick nodded and walked towards the vent and pulled himself up, he then crawled through the vent towards where the lockers and boxes holding all inmates possessions were kept.

He kicked the vent off and silently lept down, he then took out the guards silently and crept into where the inmates possessions were kept. He grabbed his blazer and took his utility belt from a hidden pocket.

He held it and turned to Edward, "I need to go get changed but my other outfit is at the cave" He didn't mind saying things in front of scarecrow as he already knew Batman and Robin were Bruce Wayne and Richard Grayson.

Edward simply noddes then said "Alright, we'll meet you at the old abandoned house beside the church."

Dick nodds and runns off.

AN. sorry about the wait, I'm working on a bunch of other books too ^.^ thanks for reading :)
