Missions, despite how well planned they were, hardly ever went according to plan. This was one of those missions. The team were fighting off the leftover guards who were very mad they just blew up the labs essential to their boss's plan and Robin noticed some of them leave in the direction of the Bioship AKA their only means of escape. If they did anything to the ship, they would be in the shit. Naturally, he glanced around the makeshift battlefield and decided that they needed all hands on deck to face off against the majority. He also decided not to mention that he was going off to handle the breakaway group. This came to bite him in the ass later. He took off after them with his team being too focused on the action to notice his disappearance. 



Kid Flash blew out a tired breath as he handcuffed the last person. He looked back to his team with a slight smile and checked over them quickly to make sure no knives were sticking out of them or bullet wounds riddling their bodies. It was then that he found an absence in the group. "Uh guys, where's Robin?" he asked. The group looked amongst themselves, confirming that they were indeed missing their youngest member. Well more like the shortest since Superboy only had the body of a teenager. 

"He wasn't that far from me last time I checked. But then again, it's been a long time since I checked," Miss Martian replied. She looked back to where she'd last seen him and, obviously, he wasn't there. 

"That's our exit route to the ship. Maybe he walked back quickly?" Artemis suggested. 

"Or more likely he was injured and is trying to hide it," Kid Flash corrected. 

"How do you-" A scream cut the martian off and it didn't take a genius to recognise it as Robin's. She looked to Kid Flash who was already running in that direction. He went ahead whilst the rest ran after him, hoping that they wouldn't stumble across something horrible. First, because they cared for Robin but a few down on that list of why they didn't want to see that was Batman would kick their asses if something bad happened to Robin. They all ran at top speed but were incredibly confused when they heard soft cackles coming from the direction of the scream. This wouldn't have been that weird if this had been some villain laughing about a job well done. No, what made it weird was the cackle was the iconic cackle of Robin. The guy who just screamed mere minutes beforehand. The first thing they thought was perhaps Joker was somehow here or maybe these guys had Joker Venom at the least but that was then disputed by the fact the cackles weren't manic or mixed with harsh gasps and cries. They were just cackles. 



Kid Flash was of course first on the scene and he had to take a few moments to take in what was going on. There were a few men strewn about, laying unconscious, and Robin was kneeling on the ground cradling his wrist. Something that stuck out to the young speedster was the number of cuts on him and the odd small dagger stuck in him. Thrown a few feet away were two cat-o'-nine-tails which would explain how he was able to receive so many. Kid Flash shook off the shock and ran over, gently putting a hand on the man's back to get his attention. Robin hissed upon receiving the contact and sat straight up. He cackled a little upon realising it was just his fellow hero. "Think I'm a lil loopy," he said with a grin.

"Were you drugged? Hit in the head? Why are you bleeding so much?"

"Blood go pshhhh," the younger giggled.
