Jon held his head as it was in pain as he looked around at the crater that he made.

"Wha-wha..." He tried to puzzle the pieces together, his efforts were in vain as he can't remember anything but grabbing Damian and flying upwards. "Ho-how did we?" he looked at his boyfriend.

"I-I... don't know..." Damian began to caress his boyfriend's cheek. "What's important... is you're safe..." He smiled. Jon immediately grabbed him for a hug.

"Last time I checked, I was supposed to save you..." Jon buried his face on his love's shoulder.

"You did." Damian kissed Jon's cheek. "Thank you."

"I love you." Jon began to kiss Damian's shoulder.

"I love you too, beloved." Damian pulled away as he stood up. "Come on, we need to get back with the others."Damian extended his hand to help Jon up. He nodded as grabbed his hand and stood up. They made their way into the temple to find Raven and Gar talking to each other. Dick was kneeling beside Jack, who still hasn't come back. Damian immediately remembered. "Shit..." He gasped as he remembered driving the sword into Jack's chest. "No..." He ran to beside Jack. "Shit, Jack. I'm sorry..." he began to shake him in hopes of waking him up. "Jack, wake up!"

"Dami..." Jon placed a hand on his shoulder. "It's not-"

"I should've stopped him..." Damian began to hold Jack in his arms. "Damn it!" he yelled out.

"Damian." Dick looked at him. "He doesn't-"

"AAAARGH!" Jack yelled out loud as he abruptly opened his eyes. "AAARGH! FUCK!" 

"Jack!" Damian felt his eyes swell as tears began welling up as he watched Jack squirm in pain.

"Fu-fuck..." Jack groaned out as pain was gathering in his chest. "Da-Da-"

"Jack, I'm sorry..." Damian began to tear up, as Jack grunted and groaned in pain.

"Tha-that wasn't... you..." Jack groaned out. "Do-Don't bla-blame yourself-Argh!" He gripped his chest as the wound slowly closed.

"Ja-Jack...."

"You know what I could use right now?" Jack looked at Damian.

"What?" A tear made its way down Damian's face as Jack wiped it off.

"Hu-Hug..." Jack admitted. Damian quickly hugged him. "Everyone join in..." He requested. Jon and Dick smiled as they joined in the brotherly hug. Gar also joined in, while Raven just stood there. "Raven?" He looked at her.

"I'm good." Raven stood back. Jack looked at Constantine.

"Don't start, mate." Constantine started to smoke again. "Z's the only one deserving of me hugs." 

"Suit yourselves." Jack smiled. "Ugh..." He groaned, as immense pain took over his chest. "Group hug..." He hummed. One by one, they all pulled away except for Damian. 

"I promised not to do it again..." Damian buried his face on Jack's shoulder.

"Wha-what?" Jack asked him as he rubbed his back.

"I stabbed you, Jack... again." Damian regretted what he failed to stop.

"Not your fault, bud." Jack whispered into his ear. "Stop it. Stop blaming yourself... please..."

"O-Okay..." Damian raised his head. Another tear traveled down his face.

"It's not your fault..." Jack reassured him. "Stop blaming yourself." He wiped the tear off. "Help me up." He asked. Damian nodded as he helped Jack up.
