Arriving in Gotham, I turned around to the three people following me.

"Okay some ground rules,
One - use code names only please

Two- no bows, we already have an archer and Gotham's villains hate his guts..... well they hate everyone but they especially hate him.

Three - don't provoke the villains, they're already brutal enough, imagine what would happen when they're mad, and they probably will be because their favorite birdie has been gone for months....

four - listen to me and if he even talks, whatever Batman says, we know Gotham, and it doesn't matter if we're in danger, get out of there if we tell you to.

Five - let me handle the talking when it comes to villains, the females have a weird motherly obsession, and the males just want to kick my butt.

Six - under no circumstances are you to trust a police officer, almost every single one of them is corrupt - if you see Batman talking to them then they're ok, but if he doesn't then avoid them.

Seven - and most importantly absolutely no killing, brutally maiming them is more our speed, especially Batman's, so just don't annoy him.

Ok does anyone have any questions? Tonight we're just doing a basic patrol of the city, unless a villain manages to break out of Arkham, which isn't unlikely"

They shook their heads no, and I noticed that bucky's arm was showing.

"Bucky, you might want to cover that metal up, because someone might think you're a meta."

We quickly found a store, and Bucky bought a black jacket and gloves, once he was completely covered, I nodded my head towards the light illuminating the sky.

I got questioning glances. "Batman doesn't exactly have a phone so the commissioner made that, its to give the city hope, and also already Batman to the fact that we're needed, so let's go." They nodded being their silent spy selves, except Clint, who was being uncharacteristically quiet. Must've slipped into spy mode.

We climbed the buildings to the rooftops, jumping onto the next until we reached the police building.

Commissioner Gordon was standing there, he seemed surprised to see me.

"Robin, it's been a long time, where have you been?" He asked

"Around, you know training to be the world's best superhero."

Gordon laughed. 

"Only you kid, Who're they?" He asked.

"Visiting heroes, they're shadowing me and the bat, but you know how he is, I'm the more people person, while he's all broody"

Gordon laughed again.

"I can never finish a conversation with the man"

"Yeah he likes the whole disappearing routine, where do you think I learned it from?"

Suddenly Gordon looked over my shoulder, and flinched but sighed.

"Batman, you're going to give me a heart attack one of these days"

I looked at him and there was a barely there smile. I shook my head at his antics.

"So what's the situation?" I asked.

"Poison ivy has escaped from Arkham, and she's holed up in a bank with hostages, demanding to talk to you."

I felt every single adult behind me stiffen.

"Ugh, whyyyyyyyy" I groaned, poison ivy was a mama bear, but she loved to be overly protective, and when she escapes Arkham she usually only tries to keep me out of the way when she and Batman fight, I always have to sit out of those fights, and Batman is okay with it, because he knows I won't get hurt, but the woman is still crazy and a villain.

Commissioner Gordon just shrugged. "She likes you, plus all the villains have been demanding that they get to see you when they get out, and since no one could find you, they'd get violent"

I know.... ugh Gotham villains are so clingy.

I turned to the people behind me, and smiled. "Guys I'll be fine, besides it's just ivy, I'll go calm her down"

With that I jumped off the building, in a free fall until I grappled at just the right moment so I didn't fall to my death.

Once I reached the bank, I heard almost silent footsteps behind me, knowing that the four adults were following me. I walked up to the front door, knocked and yelled. "Hey ivy, I'm here!!"

Almost immediately the ivy vines started shifting and creating a pathway to her, I walked in with my hands raised to show I meant no harm, and quickly navigated until she saw me.

"Robin!!" She yelled, and came up and hugged me. When she pulled back she had a scolding look on her face, like I had my hand in a cookie jar before dinner. "Where on earth have you been?? I've been worried sick, at first I thought that you were just on a mission with the junior justice league, but when they started doing missions without you, I got worried."

I rubbed my arm. "Klarion kind of sent me to another dimension"

"What!!! Oooo he's going to get it when I see him again"

"It's okay ivy, I'm fine, plus Batman probably already got to him."

She looked a little disappointed but smiled none the less. "Harley has missed you too, and Selena, and Talia"

"Wait, you guys have been talking to Talia?" I asked slightly amazed, and slightly afraid, that meant that all the motherly villains were talking to each other and that was always a bad idea.

"Yes, after the first month, she hunted me down, and we've started an exclusive club!!"

"What's the club" I asked nervously.

"The villain mom club, obviously"

I slightly shivered, and I suddenly didn't want to find out what they were planning.

"So, now that you've seen me, I'm gonna go, because I've got school in the morning, and we wouldn't want me to miss my education opportunities"

She pouted but nodded, and let me pass through the vines once again.  Once I was out, the four adults I had left we're sitting anxiously and looking uncomfortable in the silence.

"Bats we may have an issue"

"What"

"The villains have started a mom's club, and they've included Harley, ivy, catwoman........ and Talia"

"Crap"
