Dick's POV

"What!"

Artemis: "Why are you so worked up, Wally hasn't woken up yet?"

"He said blood was getting in his eyes, and he didn't have Wallys blood on him, so he is injured. And we had him do surgery, and he has shown he is a threat, but for the fact that he hasn't escaped yet shows that he is somewhat a friend, not a foe!"

And with that I leapt up off the couch and started speed walking to his cell. I look at the handle and notice the blood, the blood I didn't notice before.

I could feel the team behind me and Megan had a first aid kit, Conner and Artemis standing at the back, and Kaldur imbetween.

We brace ourselves as we walk in and I immediately had to hold down the urge to vomit. The rest of the team wasn't doing so well, they were all out in the hallway losing their lunch.

The kid was using a candle to caughterizing * his wounds. He didnt take off his shirt, he just cauterized where he needed it. He looked up at me.

"I'm just about to relocate 5 of my ribs, your welcome to stay"

And with that my face paled and he popped one of his ribs in place when it was when I had to run out and lose my lunch as well.

We sat outside the door by the garbage can just in case.

"We need to deal with his injuries asap" Megan said in a hushed tone.

Artemis: "Robin are you okay?"

"While you were out he said 'I'm just about to relocate 5 of my ribs, your welcome to stay and with that he popped one back into place and I ran out before my lunch ended on the floor"

"We need to go check on him!" Megan said her voice full of worry.

We all got up and brought in a bucket, just in case. We were watching as he quickly rechecked his cauterized wounds while I held my lunch down. He quickly lifted his leg and pulled a knife out of it Megan had just lost her lunch, again. And I was fighting to keep mine down as well.

He then pulled his leg out and it was at a wrong angle before I realized that he had a dislocated knee. He put it in the right position and with a sickly crunch it was back in place, and the rest of us threw up, again.

He then went to his wrist, we were all confused. I realized what was happening and I had reacted too late as the crunch of his wrist bones went through the air, earning us to unluckaly throw up, yet again.

He tore off a piece of his cloak and slung his wrist where he grabbed metal and wire and made a makeshift knee brace and wrapped his torso, his top still on.

"Kid, wh-"

"Damian" he said, still in a monotone voice.

"My name isn't kid, it is Damian"

"Damian have you been injured this whole time?"

"Yes, but the knee, wrist, and shoulder were older along with the knife."

"How long is older?" I asked worried about the kid who just fixed himself up with nothing but a candle.

"The wrist has been years along with the shoulder, but I dislocated my knee a while back, about a month and a half."

"Damian have you told anyone about this?"

"No, it was irrelevant at the time"

Kaldur: "How could you say your health is irrelevant, it isnt healthy to have this many injuries"

"It is how it has always been, broke a bone, deal with it or fix it yourself. Dislocated something, relocate it. Bleeding out, walk it off. Got shot or injured, train. Got poisoned, find a cure. Simple. As for the knee, I just wore my brothers clothes, they didnt bother much about it"

I looked around, Kaldur and me were standing, talking to Damian, Connor was in the corner, watching over us, and Artemis was comforting Megan.

"You should eat, you all threw up like ten times"

"Why wouldn't you tell us"

"It is not your job to care for me, so telling you that I was injured would only be more troublesome to the situation, and why would you help me? I sent your friend into emergancy surgery"

"Off topic for one second, why did you do it like that?"

"Instinct"

Kaldur: "Whose instinct would have them shatter the bone of a random person, while threatening his life?"

"Mine, anyways, why do you keep your tower so cold?"

Kaldur: "Cold? It is 83 out there, but 94 in here"

"But it is cold"

"So what is warm to you then?" Artemis sneered at him, venom dripping in her words.

"113"

"Wait, 113! How are you human?"

"Yes, but who said I was human?"

Artemis: "Wait your not human!?!"

"I am, but I am mostly referred to as worse then the demon"

Megan: "Who is 'The Demon'?"

He said The Demon. He was referring to Ra's Al Ghoul, also known as the demon. I paled, well further paled, still somewhat not over the shock of how the kid had gone through this pain and not be on the floor in a ball in pain.

"Megs, the demon is also known as Ra's Al Ghoul."

"Yes, it is quite common to find my own abilities compared to his"

Something about what this kid was off, he didn't say Ra's name, just referring to him as a 'he'. There was some sort of connection.

The kid put his arm around his torso yet again. He pulled it back as the others just watched as he inspected the crimson liquid on his fingers. He sighed and grabbed the candle and got ready to burn his wound shut.

"Looks like I forgot about one, didn't even realize it..." He started to mumble, while I stood there frozen by his words, he started to move the candle towards his flesh.

Artemis sprung into action and snatched the candle from Damian, who looked offended.

"What are you doing! These are worse then stitches and leave worse scars!" Artemis practically shrieked at him.

"I am well aware, I used my stitching wires on West because they have a more durable result that should acomidate to his speeds. It is only fitting to go for the next best option. And besides, let's cut to the chase. From these injuries I would have bled out, no major loss there"

We all stared at him in shock, even Connor. Megan was crying and Artemis' was looking him like he just said he was the relative to a serial killer. And me and Kaldur just stood there with our mouths agape.

"Believe me when I say that with all of the crimes I have committed, it would be putting you guys in a higher rate of survival if I was dead"

"H-how could you say that about yourself?" Megan said, not fighting the tears.

"I have done many sins, you all would be better off, and Kid Flash is awake. And knowing the oh so very small brain capacity that he has, he is most likely trying to get out of bed and falling."

Everyone perked at this new information before you heard a crash then a fair amount of cussing coming from the med bay.

cauterize*= to burn your flesh shut, so you can relieve a bleeding wound.
