"I told you not to confront Bane without us."

"And where the hell were you exactly!? Because maybe if you were there sooner, Tim wouldn't be half dead and Cass's arm wouldn't literally be hanging on by a GOD DAMN THREAD!" I shouted before flinching at the pain of my everything.

"We would've been there a lot sooner if it wasn't for them." Batwoman said looking over at Jason and Bizarro while Artemis and Barbara worked on my wounds. Stephanie and Azrael were there but Steph was too scared to even look me in the eyes. Batwing and Clayface were with Cass and Tim was in the Emergency Room where he was being treated for mortal wounds after a "car accident". His butler and his father are on their way to see him as we speak.

"And we ended up saving the three best members of your team so you're welcome, Katy." Jason said with his arms folded.

"Oh and please go on and tell (Y,N) how exactly we kept you busy." Artemis said irritatedly as she bandages me up.

"The Red Hood and the Outlaws-"

"The Dark Trinity." Artemis corrected Batwoman, presumably because she didn't like being "And the Outlaws".

"... The Red Hood and The Outlaws were deemed top priority by Batman a month ago after the attempted murder of The Penguin. If they were found in Gotham they were to be immediately apprehended and sent to separate facilities that could handle their powers." Batwoman explained. "While we were on our way, we found them attempting to hunt down and kill The Flamingo, so naturally I had to do what Batman told me and we-"

"Left Tim for dead so you could stop us from executing a cannibal?" Jason said.

"Jason, it's literally in your name; you guys are Outlaws! I'm pretty sure the only person above you guys on Batman's most wanted list is The Joker!"  Barbara said.

"And you know who should be on Batman's most important people list? His god damned kid! So forgive me for believing he's gonna be pissed when he finds out that you not only let Bane get away but let his adopted son get tortured half to death and his adopted daughter almost have her entire arm ripped off of her body just to not arrest me and need my help to make sure they got home alive! And sorry if I get a little worked up over the fact that a Robin was almost tortured and murdered tonight!" Jason said.

"I understand your emotions and that's why as gratitude I'm letting you walk out of here free and not arresting you."

"Bizarro think that am not fair! Bizarro Red Her and Red Him save Ghost Man, Small Red Him, and One Arm Girl and still get treated like bad men!" Bizarro said.

"No, Bizarro they're right to do so. Jason and I are by their standards 'bad men'. We should just agree to leave... come on, (Y,N)." Artemis said.

"Excuse me?" Batwoman said while Stephanie and Barbara both said "What!?"

"We're taking (Y,N) and we're going to find Bane and stop this little revolution he seems to be planning." Jason said.

"You can't just take (Y,N)!" Barbara said.

"Isn't that what you guys did? (Y,N) caught us up on the ride here." Jason said.

"Besides we're not taking him. He's going willingly." Artemis said.

"But he's not even done getting checked on right now, let alone healed!" Barbara added.

"We'll stop by Ma Gunn's first. She'd be ten times better for the job than you guys anyway, even without the sci-fi shit." Jason said.

"(Y,N), you realize if you go with them you'd be hunted down by Batman himself, right?" Batwoman said.

"...I could probably take him. Especially with these three." I said getting off the medical bed they had me seated on.

"You can't be serious!" Barbara shouted.

"Tell Tim big bro says hi and hopes he gets well soon." Jason said picking up his mask. Wait hold on,

"Dude What the hell did you do to your costume?" I asked him.

"What? You don't like it?"

"Just don't do anything stupid to your hair and we'll be fine."

"WAIT! What if we made a truce!?" Stephanie shouted. We all looked over at her.

"Spoiler what are you-"

"We all find Bane together! We're gonna need more people anyway considering Cass and Tim... might be out of it for good." Steph said. "When we find him and his gang, we don't kill him and then Jason, Artemis, and Bizarro get to go off after! Let Nightwing or Batman arrest them if Batman is so hellbent in capturing them!" Stephanie said.

"You're not nearly high enough rank in this group to-"

"Stephanie is right! They just saved (Y,N), Cass, and Tim's lives! We can't just treat them like they're Scarecrow or Firefly!" Barbara said.

"You can't be serious, right!? They're-"

"Call us Outlaws one more time and I swear to Goddess I'll send you on a one way flight to Themyscira with my right hand!" Artemis threatened Azrael.

"Only proving my point."

"Okay, then how about let them help you take down Bane or I help them kill Bane and then proceed to kick you asses for the rest of our lives?" I said.

"Batwoman, please." Stephanie said. Batwoman gritted her teeth.

"I'm a pissy little dumb lesbo who hates everyone else because I got kicked out of the military like an idiot." Batwoman said... oh wait I'm doing that thing where I pretend they're saying something they're not again.

"Well that settles things." Artemis said. "Let's go, then."

"Wait, she said yes! Why are you still leaving!?" Stephanie asked distressed.

"We were kidding when we said Ma Gunn would be extremely better at nursing (Y,N) and Cass back to health." Jason said. "Speaking of, Hey big guy, can you get Cass from the other room?" Jason asked Bizarro.

"One Arm Girl?"

"Yes but don't call her that to her face." Jason said.

. . .

"Have you acquired the footage I have asked you for?" Bane asked Bird who was holding an ice pack over his crooked nose with two cotton balls in his nostrils.

"Yeah, Bane. This is all the footage we have of the guy right now. I could've sworn I've seen him on the news before, though. It's like all the footage of him got erased by the government or somethin'." Bird responded.

"This shall be good enough for now. Go. Rest."

"What are you going to do, Bane?"

"Study. The boy seems to possibly be as much as a challenge as Batman. I must do what I did with Batman as well. Study him. Learn his secrets. His identity. All he holds dear. And then finally...

I will break him."
