Missing Hope

{10}

"Everyone is gone now rob. Change then let's get you back to your master." Wally said in a hushed tone.

Chapter 10: Friendly assistance

"Now I'm taking the cuffs off so change and sit back down." Wally said as cover knowing where the cameras were.

Robin waited patiently for Wally to take the cuffs off, silently apologizing to his friend. Wally gave a slight but unnoticeable nod in reply. Once the cuffs were off robin took the clothing and changed. He went to sit back down turning on his heel just as he was about to sit. He kicked Wally in the face sending the other teen down on his back. Wally went to get back up but robin grabbed a birdarang the titans had left from when robin was around. (Or maybe it was placed by Wally, only I will know for now. ) Robin pressed the rope button and flung the thing at the other standing teenager kicking him in the stomach sending him down once again. The door had banging and shouting coming from the other side as it was locked. Robin took his opportunity to escape and began to flee through the window, As the rest of both teams finally got in the room they noticed a seeming grumpy and childish looking Wally.

"Sorry guys, he caught me off guard....guess I shoulda been more careful." Wally confessed.

"It's fine KF. None of us expected that. Robin seemed to be fine around you and we didn't take precautionary measures just in case. We are all to blame." Martian man hunter said wisely.

"Hey supes, could you use your eye lasers and get me outta this?" KF asked.

Super man nodded and released the teen from his restraints. KF thanked him and stood up.
'You better come back for me robin...." KF thought angrily making sure no unwanted minds could hear him. (Cough raven, cough Martian man hunger, cough Meghan.
-sorry) Meanwhile robin flung across rooftops making sure he wasn't being followed by anyone. Once he had returned to base he put his hand on the scanner.

"Renegade." Slade greeted.

"Master." Robin replied curtly.

"Back sooner than expected. They left you unguarded?" Slade prompted.

"Slight intervention from Agent Bolt. I'll fill you in as soon as we are in a more closed quarters." Robin stated.

"Very well." Slade said leaving the intercom.

Robin walked in as soon as the green 'Access Granted' message was displayed. He walked to the main computer room and up to his usual spot. He quickly began to type up a mission report. Robin hadn't had time to type his last missions report or give Slade the payment. He pulled the loose leaf from his pocket and typed the report. Finishing, he saved the file and sent it to Slade. The money was also tucked into his pocket still. He had retrieved it along with the rest of his belongings before he left. He pulled the money out and handed it to Slade. The fee was a pretty hefty one and robin would get a fair chunk. Slade counted and nodded confirming it all to be there.

"Good work renegade." Slade said depositing a generous amount of cash into a small cash envelope and handing it to robin.

Robin thanked him and slipped it into his pocket.

"Shall I write a mission report on the incident?" Robin asked pulling up a blank file.

"Yes, don't leave out any detail. I want everything." Slade instructed.

Robin nodded determined. He rallied all of his thoughts into a full detail report. Conversation and all. He made a point of grabbing the small recording device he keeps on him at all times and downloading the incidents recording to include as well. Labeling the file 'Audio Recording-JLA/Titans Renegade Incident.' So Slade would be able to save the file if need be. Robin finished the report around and hour finally and sent it to Slade for submission. Robin returned to his room, counting his earning so he could add it to the roster/cash count page on top of his cash box. Slade had given the boy an extra 75 for his mission report on top of his 1500 from his last mission. 1500 was a decent amount for a 25 percent cut of the full amount. Robin deposited the cash into his hideaway box and marked '1575' onto the count sheet. Currently his saved total from the last year was one million two hundred thousand eight hundred and ninety two dollars. He had a bank account linked to Bruce, but it was never used, nor could he deposit this money into his account. Instead he simply kept it in a lockable metal money box, that was a fair bit large. The bills rolled into smaller wads to save space. Robin sighed stuffing the box back into its hiding place until next time.it had been one year and three months since robin actually began doing proper missions for Slade. The man wanted to make sure robin wouldn't run off in the middle of a mission and had spent 9 months training him. Robin had been with the man a total of two years before the titans and the JLA had come to save him. Even then they 'saved' him during a mission. Robin scoffed. 'Saved me, more like kidnapped.' He thought to himself. Robin sighed and stood up. What was he doing with his life.....why was it always him? Robins attentions snapped quickly. Wally.....he had to go back and get Wally. Robin bolted to the briefing room where he knew Slade was.

"Master!" Robin yelled throwing the doors open.

"Yes renegade?" Slade greeted.

"Wally....I have to go back for Wally!" Robin yelled frantically.

"Renegade calm down." Slade instructed.

"But-" robin tried.

"No buts Robin! You will retrieve him trust me. But later when their all asleep. You remember their sleeping patterns yes" Slade ordered.

"Of course. You must always remember every detail." Robin answered.

"Very good. You will retrieve Agent Bolt at 1 am and bring him back safely and unnoticed." Slade briefed.

Robin gave a determined nod and waited until nightfall. He grabbed a few of his gadgets and set out at twelve fourth five am. He arrived at Wally's window just as the clock hit exactly one am. He gave a light tap on the window to tell Wally he was there. The seemingly 'sleeping' teen slowly got out of bed and into the main room. Beast boy was in there playing some video games.

"Wally?" Beast boy asked turning from his games.

"Hey BB." Wally greeted.

"Your still awake? Wanna play some games!?" Beast boy asked excitedly.

"Sorry beast boy, maybe tomorrow. I'm going to  the roof for a walk and to get some fresh air." Wally told the green teen.

"Okay. Stay safe dude!" Beast boy said turning back to his games as Wally left.

Wally met robin on the rooftop. Robin's eyebrow raised in question. Wally knew there were cameras in that specific area and took a fighting stance 'just noticing' robin.

"Robin!?" Wally asked skeptically.

A dark laughter filled the air. "Who else?" He spoke.

Robin darted beginning to run in the opposite direction of his hideout......
