Dick's POV:

"Holy shit!" I scream. Superboy destroys the top of the iron cage like it was made of paper mache. The boy of steel passes the cage and flies off to the distance with the fastest speed I never thought he could do. I see the dog masked kid dropping down to the ground and protecting Red Robin's head from any debris that could fall. The kid has quick reflexes to protect my younger brother.

I want to run to Tim's side, but I face my own opponent. The guy wearing a red helmet with mohawk, brown leather jacket, and black attire stands before me. He stares at me for a second while holding two apples in his hands. The man was not as serious as the little kid, but he is as dangerous. I remember the hits he gave me and got chills on my back.

However, he tilts his head to the direction of the other two who are fighting. He shares, "Let's watch something interesting instead."

The dog masked kid stands up and leaves Red Robin's side, who stayed laying down on the floor. He looks at the direction the boy of steel flew through, and I realize Superboy is already coming for a second attack. There is only rage in Conner's eyes as he aims to destroy the kid. In fear of him actually killing, I face the man in red helmet and desperately suggest, "We can't let this continue. They're going to kill each other!"

My opponent looks at me and tilt his head to the side like he did not know why I was worried for. His questioning reaction made me want to hit him, but he looks at the direction of his partner. He shares, "Who knows, but this is fun to watch."

"I can't believe I agreed to this," I react to his stupid comment, "This is too dangerous!"

"Pfft. Don't be such a sissy. This will end well, the kiddo said so," the men in red helmet reassures.

"Why are you even here? You should be the one fighting Superboy!"

"Hell nah. I want to keep living."

BOOM!!!

Something crashes to the ground close to where the dog masked kid used to stand, but now the area is surrounded by smoke from the impact. I cannot see anything or anyone in the smoke. My stomach flips in fear that someone got hurt while I was distracted. Without wasting anymore time, I run to the scene with the man in red mask follows me from behind.

I go in the smoke that is starting to clear up and go to the first thing I notice. On the ground, I see someone who is shaking his head from all the commotion. When the smoke clears, I see that I went to Superboy, who is still in a daze and the one who created the crater on the ground. He tries to stand up but stumbles a little in the process. Looking carefully at my companion, he has a big wounded cut on his arm that goes from his shoulder to his elbow. The wound is deep that blood is dripping down his arm as it drops to the ground. Other than the wound and a concussion, Superboy seems alright with some of his clothes rip here and there.

Realizing the fading of the smoke, I frantically look around to see where Red Robin and the dog masked kid are. The iron cage is about five feet away from me and Superboy, so Timmy is safe from the collision. When I look inside the cage, I see Tim trying to stand up and is looking at our direction. He seems to be looking at Conner, who is starting to recollect himself from all his rage. My younger brother is worried about Conner that he is forgetting about his wounded state.
