Aqualad's words didn't make Robin feel the aster any less.

"Agent A will be upset if something happens to you."

The words still rattled around in his brain, yet he couldn't help but think, "What about you? Would you care if something happened to me?" In the back of his mind, there was also the issue of that girl trying to warn him, telling him Slade was in fact after him. He wasn't sure what bothered him the most – the fact she knew he was in danger, or the fact she acted like she knew him – as in knew him, knew him.

Meeting Cyborg...

For some reason that felt strange, like the young cyborg's handshake was somehow familiar, but the teens one eye – it almost as if there was also some kind of recognition on his part. He brushed this away, chalking it up to the paranoia Kid Flash forewarned him about, letting Kid Flash interact with Cyborg with the video games pushing the thought further back into his mind. That was, until...

"Question? Do we know each other? Have we met before?"

The level of aster for today quickly shot up for Robin as he stared at the hulking Cyborg, his mouth twisted into a definite look of contemplation. Honestly, this was likely one of the worst times for something like this to happen, when the team was supposed to be going out on a mission. His smile fell; he slipped from Mount Justice, getting ahead of everyone else, getting away before anyone started acting majorly worried over something which was nothing.

Well, something wasn't nothing.

He took to the roofs, looking for an orange alien and two Amazon chicks despite knowing taking off on his own didn't really help the team much. Finding the team – that was no difficult task even with Kid Flash chattering in his head asking where he took off towards, while Aqualad gave a lecture about – well, taking off like he usually did.

"At least with that other girl, she controlled who got what message – how do I know that?" He should have felt relieved when he found the three at the beach, yet the girl who intruded upon his mind earlier in the morning was there with a boy who was green. "Well, I found them on the beach."

"Don't..."

Robin didn't wait for Aqualad's orders despite the fact he knew the older teen was the definite leader of the team, letting his frustrations get the better of him. He dived right in, letting out his trademark laugh as he dove right into the fray, perching himself up on one of the structures, balancing precariously as usual. "So, what's going on? Am I missing out on the fun?"

The girl who approached him earlier looked at him as if she found his behavior uncharacteristic, yet the look on the orange alien's face – a flicker of recognition was there, yet she also looked as if she were treating him like some kind of eye candy. "Um. Do we know each other? Have..."

"I've heard that more than once today." In the back of his head, his head started throbbing, realizing that maybe, just maybe he knew the green-haired kid before.

"Actually, I'm sure we've dated."

"Wh..." Robin's eyes widened, remembering how Wally – Kid Flash – constantly teased him for never having had a girlfriend, yet the orange alien in front of him – who was definitely a looker, insisted they'd dated. It felt... "Definitely not concerted right now."

"Well, I'm finding this rather concerting as well."

He felt his blood freeze upon hearing the alien girl use one of his unwords, his stomach lurching majorly. He barely registered the look of irritation one of the Amazonian girl's faces, let alone her movement towards smashing the structure he was on. He found himself flipping through the air, his eyes narrowing while he landed on his feet. "Woah! Totally turbed..."

Something yanked him backward through the air while the Amazon tried making another attack, sand showering through the air, while his breath left. He turned towards the person, expecting to thank Miss Martian, only to pause after, "Than..."

The person who pulled him back was, in fact, the strange girl who intruded upon his mind earlier that morning, yet she looked down upon him, glaring. His eyes narrowed. "Well, that's honestly more of what I expected from you."

Robin twisted away, gritting his teeth together while another barrage came in his direction, but he found himself lying on his back contemplating how the strange girl knew a darker side of him and looking up at the orange alien – with a view which definitely made his cheeks heat up, her bikini definitely showing a lot of skin. She frowned, pondering something. "So, we're fighting?"

"Ugh." Robin rolled away just in time for Kid Flash to come sliding in with a wave of sand created by his ability to run very fast. The rest of the team came in, but he saw Wonder Girl slam a fist into the face of the one girl, making him wince. He found himself dodging away as the girl came flying at him, finding him face to face with the girl, his fingers reaching for a couple of Batarangs just as Cyborg came out of nowhere.

The look on her face...

Robin struggled with contemplating the look of shock, yet recognition upon her face, yet he wondered if he was really needed like Batman suggested, his small body now behind one of the buildings while he heard the orange alien speak. "Wait. Come back."

"Um... why?"

"I'm quite sure we were dating once."

"Um, yeah..." Robin swallowed. "I don't exactly remember that. I really think I would remember if I had."

"Because I'm orange."

"Um, because you're pretty?" He was behind another building, unaware of what was going on, when he saw Miss Martian come hurtling at the orange alien, knocking her out of sight. Robin took a deep breath, fully intent on getting back into the fray when he felt something cover his mouth from behind. "Shit."

His vision started to blur, then he completely blacked out, his body going limp.
