Tim's P.O.V

"HELLO BIRD WONDERS!" My ears were ringing through the minute of silence that filled the room. Immense pain shot through it causing a throbbing sensation to linger longer than I expected.

A shallow voice had been calling my name, dragging me by the hand and leading me out of the darkness. When my eyes finally opened, I didn't expect to see what I saw; Jason Todd AKA the Red Hood was a few inches away, seemingly unconscious. His face was blurred, becoming a crimson mosaic, and the rest of his body being deleted into speckles of blackness.

It wasn't until I realized he was calling my name when I finally threw off the blanket the coated my mind.

I started off by propping myself up on my elbow and attempting to rub the side of my head to make the pain go away; If only it were that easy.

"Red Robin," I turned my head towards Jason who had also been sitting up, "are you good?"

"Wish I could say 'yes'."

We both started to stand to our feet, my legs wobbly from the sudden movement I began to put my body through. "Oh, there you go!" Joker exclaimed, "Stand up, Reds and let's get ready to rumble!"

There was a static noise, then TVs I hadn't noticed before, turned on. At first, the TV was static, black and white filling the screen. Then soon it showed my sister sitting in a chair, arms and legs bound to a chair.

My body went stiff, my thoughts spinning out of control as if a tornado had swallowed them whole. Words couldn't form, nor could I comprehend what I was seeing. I was barely able to keep myself from crossing the line as anger flowed through me, causing my adrenaline to spike.

Jason growled from beside me, his whole body could be seen going tense from my peripherals. Seeing my sister seemed to have the same reaction on him as it did me.

"Let her go, Joker, " I yelled out to where ever he was, "you already have what you want; us."

"Whoever said you two were the ones I wanted?" Both me and Jason looked at each other, what was this madman planning and why were we just pawns in a very confusing game of Chess?

Then the screen went black and Joker's voice came back over the intercom, "I'll let her go on one condition."

"We ain't playing your games, " Jason snarled, venom lacing his voice, "Let her go and maybe I'll consider not making you suffer."

"We both know that's a lie, Red, " he paused and almost seemed to stumble over his words, "I mean the one with the hood." He cackled as more feedback came out forcibly through the speakers, then his voice again, "The both of you have to fight to the death; only one can save her."

A part of me wanted to believe he was bluffing, but I knew for a fact that the Joker wanted us clawing at each other's throats like a pack of wild animals. Yet there was still a sliver of chance that maybe the Joker was just playing another one of his cards.

"Yeah right, " I rolled my eyes, "Like we're gonna fight--" suddenly beside me, I heard Jason's gun being cocked into place. I sighed, realizing just how worse things had gotten, "This is exactly why you don't have any friends."
