(Y/N)/ your pov

Remind me how I get myself into these messes. I thought as I hid behind a wall in an old building. I peered around the corner and spotted one of the Riddler's guards. I swiftly threw a throwing star at them, knocking them out. I snuck out from around the corner and made it down to an old lab. I could hear voices, but I couldn't make out what they were saying.

Quietly, I crawled into an air vent. This is so cliché. I crawled through the vent until I was above Red Robin. Yes Red Robin. He's the reason I'm here currently. He came back to Gotham to visit, I suppose? Anyway, he had been snagged by the Riddler and because I was bored, I decided to save him... and maybe I was fond of him. Maybe. So here I was.

"Riddle me this: What travels around the world, but stays in one corner?" The Riddler asked Red Robin. Red Robin only glared at him.

"A-" he started.

"You don't know the answer? Oh well! Ta-ta for now!" The Riddler cut him off. "Each time you don't answer the pain will become worse." He hissed.   As if on cue, Red Robin cried out in pain. The Riddler chuckled and left the room. Once I was sure he was gone, I jumped down from the vent. Red Robin gave me a quizzical look.

"Don't worry little Red, I'm here to help." I whispered. I began to type into my wrist computer and soon the electrical binds that held him, disappeared. He shakily stood up. I offered him a hand and he accepted. I glanced around the room. There was no way out except for the door but there were probably guards on the other side. I smirked to myself. This gives me the chance to use my new gadget! I pulled out a small square like device from my belt and placed it on the back wall. After a couple seconds, the wall disintegrated.

"Come on!" I said as I pulled Red Robin through the wall. We stepped out into an alley. I grabbed the device and we ran off. Once we were about a mile away, on roof tops, we stoped. I put my hands on my knees panting a bit. I smiled at him. He flashed a smile back.

"Thanks." He said.

"No problem." I responded. I stood up straight and stretched.

"A stamp." I said.

"Huh?" He questioned.

"The answer to the riddle, it was a stamp." I replied cheekily. He gave a small grin.

"I knew that." He responded.

"Sure you did, later!" I called as I disappeared.

Thank you for putting up with my writing!
