Recap:

"Gata pentru a se conforma, domnule." I said and he clapped and rose to his feet. So happy. Why?

"Goodie Goodie! It worked Mr. Devin!" Joker happily skipped around and stopped at the top step. "Come now Birdie. We have a lot of havoc to raise." Joker smiled as he ushered me to follow. I got to my feet as I followed. I walked up the steps and just walked out the morgue doors.

"Time to show the world what chaos is."

It's been almost 1 year since we've seen Robin. Bruce hammers us with responsibilities or missions on any lead he has for us. Always the same routine, wake up, we see him at the Holo-Computer with Jason, Damian, and Tim by his side, anxious and ready to save their little brother.

We tried to keep up with them, the Bat-Family is a fast and efficient group of individuals, the mold with the shadows. But it doesn't held that there's been a new assassin in town. Thousands of villains know only his given name. The intelligence community doesn't believe he exists. The ones who do call him 'The Asset.' He's credited for over 2 dozen assassinations in the past year. 

Jason has seen him. He shot a bullet clear through his side to kill the Russian Scientist he was helping transport. He said he was merciless and relentless. Jason's armor is bullet proof.

"West. You're riding with Todd and myself." Damian said as he stepped away from the mission room, Jason proceeded to follow him. I got up from my chair and somehow tripped on the way out. I followed the Bat-Bros who were surprisingly in civilian clothing for one. No doubt they all have some kind of weapons on them or in the car. I watched Alfred pull in a slick looking Kia, dark grey. Like every other car. I watched Jason grab one of the Joker goons stashed in the cell. 

Jason sat in the back with the prisoner, myself in the passenger seat with Damian in the driver seat. He pushed the gear in reverse and sped out of there, a 180 degree spin and sped onto the paved road. I was scared to drive with him now. 

"The Asset guy is ruthless." Jason said, I think he's still a little mad at him for getting a bullet through his side and a hole in his armor. 

"He used a bullet manufactured with Titanium. Someone wanted Mr. Schmander dead. He did have knowledge of The Asset." Damian said and The Goon looked at us, black male. 

"And we're going to use his DNA to get into the Joker base to see if we can find Robin." Jason said and looked at the Goon, Henry Stapleton. 

"Are you serious!? That's insane." He protested as Damian got onto the highway. 

"Well too--" I started but got cut off by a large thump on the roof. The window broke and I watched Stapleton get throw in front of a 18 wheeler. 

"Hey!" Damian yelled with an angry and I heard steps on the roof. Jason shot out of his chair and pulls me down, somehow in front of me in the fraction of a second, I saw I bullet go through the head of the chair as well as on in Damian's. He slammed his foot on the break. I saw a body flip off the car and land a few feet away in a crouch. I watched him as he slowly stood up. He stayed in a feet side stance and stayed put. Cars of different colors drove past him as he just looked. 

A pair of goggles over his eyes and a only muzzle like one over his mouth. Making him unidentifiable. The noticeable features on a persons nose, chin, and eyes. The black hood draped over his head, running to about his calves, a red and black tunic covering his torso and black sleeves with gloves. A utility belt matching  the black theme with the same color pants and boots. 

"What the--" Jason started and grabbed his gun, aiming and about to shoot when the back of the car was rammed by a black Humvee. Damian pressed his foot against the pedal and held the reverse. This car was like an ant against that Humvee, we kept getting pushed when Damian decided to push into drive and speed towards The Asset. He jumped and gripped the roof, breaking the back window with the impact of his feet. He's a lithe and compact fighter from what I can tell. 

I heard steps as I felt Jason reaching from his gun on the floor board. I saw a hand crash through the windshield and snatch the steering wheel, ripping it from the car and Damian had nothing. Jason shot at the roof and I heard the retreat of The Asset. 

"DITCH!!" Damian yelled as he felt the car start to tip. From the review mirror, I saw The Asset standing on the hood of the Humvee as he dropped the steering wheel. Jason kicked off the car door and we all jumped out. The highway becoming pretty vacant at this point, both sides. 

Jason stood there with his gun, he searched for something in his pockets. They had distance from the Humvee. He pulled out a disk and handed it to me.

"Shield from Dr. fate. Though it might come in handy when he pulls out a Grenade Launcher. " Jason said and I saw a yellow aura form in a shield for my arm. I watched the Humvee stop, 5 soldiers coming out and one holding a Grenade launcher. 

I stood there as I saw the Grenade hit the shield, my body propelling off and going into a metro bus on the bottom street, a electric car colliding with it, causing it to tip and fall over.

I ran down the highway and watched him point that launcher at me, car was near by so I have an advantage. He shot the car and I vaulted off the divider. Rolling and sliding over the roof of a car, Damian behind a white car, I continued running until the grey car in front of me caught on fire, I vaulted off the Passover, using the grappling hook and landing on the floor. I saw the shadow of the asset as I continued running. I used the shadow and I aimed my pistol as he checked the Passover. I shot his goggle. I watched his body slump and shoot back up, shooting under as I stood by the . 

I ran out of bullets so I started running. 

"El e al meu, găsește-l." (He's mine. Find him.) I heard him say as I turned behind me, seeing him hope over and dent the roof of a car, walking off it like nothing. He's the perfected weapon. Perfectly engineered. 

He was walking after me, following me per say. I continued running and telling people to get out as I ran across the cars parked on the side of the road.  I looked behind me and couldn't tell where he went. I continued looking as I got out one of my auto recorders and sent it to a Justice League call. I had to be quick. I watched him blow up one of the Gotham Police cars, I ran across the road of abandoned vehicles. He paused as he probably heard my recording.

I ducked down behind the car I was behind. I looked through the window and saw him standing there. 

I walked from car to car and watched a little silver ball start rolling on the floor. It continued until it hit the curb and exploded, now that was cool. I peeked over and saw he was confused. I jumped over the hood and wrapped my thighs around the back of his neck, causing him to drop his weapon as I pulled out a metal wire. 

He brought his hand up as I pulled, he backtracked and slammed my back against the car. my grip faltered as I felt my body collide with the side of a car. I fell and heard his check the magazine. I grabbed my small EMP Magnet and threw it to his sleeve, I saw the metal plating over it, I watched his arm drop to the side as he dropped his gun. He looked down at it almost blankly. He yanked it off, that shouldn't be possible, that's supposed to stay there. This man is a machine. He made his fingers move and rotate his shoulder, I was already running by then.

I ran quickly to war civilians. 

"Get out of the way!" I yelled and made a moving motion with my arm. "Get out of the way!" I yelled and I felt my body ripple, a bullet entering my shoulder. I dropped to a knee and pressed my back against the car door, holding my hand over the entry wound. I checked my surroundings and didn't see him anywhere. 

I turned my head to a thud and saw him on the roof of a car, aiming his machine gun at me, I saw Wally sped over. I took my chance and ran. Ran to find Damian.

I watched The Asset perch on a car and looking at Jason. I ran closer and and his arm collided with the shield from Dr. Fate. Making a gong like noise, I looked at him as he knocked my shield to the side and kicked me off. Sitting on top of the roof as I held a tight upward fetal position behind the shield. He shot at me with his machine gun, shooting the shield with the bullets he had left. 

He dropped it to the side and rolled of, landing his hands as he reached behind him and pulled out his mini ooze. I ran around the car as the bullets lodge themselves in the metal. I jumped over the car and kicked that out of his hands. He spun around and he grabbed his pistol. How many guns does his have!? Shooting the shield as I ran still. He shot 4 times and I punched him in the jaw, he grabbed the shield.

He punched me in the gut and face as I heard his arm make some weird noise. I had to spin with my shield, I saw him steal it as he punched me in face again and push me back with it. I rolled and looked at him, his eyes showed over the shield. His hood and cape were gone, probably when the men helping him took it. 

I got to my feet and ran at him super speed, he threw the shield like a disk, I barely passed as it lodged itself in the back of a van. I watched his hand move as he grabbed a knife. Spinning it in his fingers as he started to move quickly, making quick and daring motions. Some punches, some attempted stabs. I dodged them. He tossed his knife up and got it into a faster striking position. His arm made another weird noise as he got faster. 

This man was a machine! Fast! He made it look almost effortless. He swiped for my neck and I ducked under. I punched him in the face and his body spun to the side. I kicked him in the stomach, making him drop his knife and body practically indent the car behind him. I ran and kneed him in the stomach, making his break the passenger side window. His arm punched me in the gut hard and grabbed my arm, pushing me back and socking me in the jaw. I wrapped my arms around him and brought him to the floor, hearing a crack from his hip.

He shouldn't be able to-- He shot to his feet and hand clasped around my throat. He pushed my body away, then closer to his face, studying me. He then shoved my body so it slid over the hood of the indented car and to the concrete below. He jumped on the hood and down, punched the sidewalk where my head way. He brought his hand up and I watched cement dust fall from it. Yup. He isn't human. 

I watched him start to throw punches, coordinated and planned, I brought my arm up as I felt my body collide with the side of the van, I was about to run away when he kicked I saw his other knife and pin me to the grey van. Knife inching closer and closer to my face. I saw it sink into the metal behind me as we moved to the side. My shield was close. I shoved his arms around and grabbed him from behind, bending back and throwing him to the floor. I yanked out my shield and held it. I got a punch in the chin and I ducked under his knife, he switched hands as I stabbed my shield in the plate of his metal sleeve. I brought the shield around and put my face over the muzzle and flipped him over me. 

I watched him roll as the Muzzle fell off, his back to me as I waited. Who was he. He turned and looked at me. Everything around me stopped. 

"Robin?"
