Red Mistress's P.O.V.

I threw myself down onto my bed and cried into the pillow.

He couldn't be alive. I went to his funeral. I was there when they lowered his body into the ground. I was there...

Someone knocked on the door and opened it a crack. I heard them sit down on the bed next to me.

"Are you okay?" Jaime asked.

"Does it look like I am?" I sniffed.

"No, not really. Here, you dropped this."

I turned around as he handed me the picture of me and Jason. I took it and smiled. He wrapped his arms around me and I snuggled into his arms.

"He's alive." I whispered. "After five years." I looked up at Jaime. "I have to find him."

I stood up and grabbed my guns and super-suit.

"I'll come with you." Jaime said putting his hands on my arms.

"No. You stay here."

He sighed and nodded. He hugged me one last time then left the room.

I looked at my picture of Jason and me one more time before I took a deep breath and walked down the hall.

"Do you guys own any motorbikes?" I asked. It figures I left mine at home.

The team looked at me.

"I have one." Conner said. "Why do you-"

"Thanks!" I took off running. I jumped on the bike and took off.

***************************

I jumped off the bike as I came to a train station. I peeked through the window and saw Batman, Nightwing and Red Hood.

"You still havent lost your touch Bruce!" I heard Hood yell as a train sped by.

By the time the train went by, Hood was gone. I waited till Batman and Nightwing left before I raced down the tracks. I caught a glimpse of Red Hood as he turned the corner and I hurried to catch up. I rounded the corner and was met with a dead end. It was empty.

"Where did he-"

BAM!

"Unh!" I hit the wall. I staggered to my feet as Hood watched me. The minute I was standing, he charged me again and I flipped over him. He flipped right after me and punched me. I blocked his attack and tried to kick him. He grabbed my leg and knocked me to the ground. I looked up at him as he sat on me and raised his fist to punch me in the face.

"Wait!" I held a hand up. "Wait."

I reached for my mask and peeled it off my face. I looked up at him as he lowered his arm slowly.

"Jason. Jason it's me. It's me Robin." I whispered.

"Robin?" He got off me and pulled me to my feet. He removed his helmet and mask and I found myself looking into those green eyes once more.

"Robin." He breathed as I sighed.

"Your new uniform looks just like me."

I opened my mouth to reply when I was interupted by his body pressing against mine. He hugged me and I hugged him back, as hard as I could.
