Once Bruce arrived at The West-Allen household, both Dick and Wally were fast asleep, curled up next to one another in Wally's bed.

Barry told Bruce that Dick could stay the night but Bruce didn't want Dick out of his grasp. Yeah, he trusted Barry to watch over Dick but he just wanted him safely in the manor, where he was close to him.

Bruce had an idea of what had happened to Dick with his master and it boiled hate within his chest, but just looking down at Dick's sweet, innocent face made the hate lessen a little bit, for Dick was free now, he was safe and he was going to do everything in his power to keep it that way.

Bruce slowly made his way over towards the side of the bed where Dick was laying. He gently pulled back the covers but as soon as the cool air hit his skin, did he tense up. Somehow Wally right away felt Dick tense up and began to wake up to check on him. His eyes fluttered open to see Bruce a.k.a. Batman right next to his bed about to pick up Dick. Just then, Wally got a huge wave of fear inside his chest and his green eyes widen. 

"No!" he shouted and quickly reached out for Bruce's arm to stop him from touching Dick but it was too late, he wasn't fast enough. As soon as Bruce's hand touch Dick, did he sit up in bed and screamed loudly. Wally covered his ears and looked over at Dick. His eyes were held tightly shut as he screamed out in panic and pain.

"Dick!" yelled Wally but before he could do anything more, Bruce grabbed ahold of Dick's arm, setting him off even more so. Dick's whole body was shaking and from the looks of it, it looked like he wasn't even awake yet. Just as soon as Bruce's hand was on his arm a force shoved Bruce off and away from him, sending him into the wall. Both Barry's and Wally's eyes widen at this. Barry rushed over towards Bruce as Wally turned to face Dick.

"Dick, it's okay. You're fine'' said Wally as he then noticed a few items within his room begin to levitate. Wally held his breath as he watched in silence, he had no idea what was going on but he could feel the rise of panic inside Dick's and now his own chest.

"Hey,'' said Wally as he slowly reached over and took Dick's hand in his, at first Dick flinched but somehow it seemed like he knew that it was Wally who was holding his hand. His body began to slightly stop shaking as much and the items that where floating in the room dropped to the ground. 

"Dick? It's Wally'' said Wally as he watched Dick's form fall backwards onto the bed. "Whoa" said Wally as he reached out to catch Dick, it wasn't like he would have gotten injured but Wally was extremely worried about him right now. Wally glanced over at Bruce and Barry before turning his full attention on Dick's limp form within his arms. Dick was breathing heavily but he was clearly knocked out.

"Umm..."began Barry but Bruce cut him off with one look before making his way back over towards Dick.

"Wait! I-I...I don't think you should take him'' said Wally and inhaled sharply as he remembered who he was speaking to. "He....I...We..." but Bruce held his hand up to stop Wally from speaking, he could tell that Wally was looking for the right words to say, to explain this but he just couldn't form them at this time.

"He would be safer in the Cave, where I can keep an eye on him. However, he does seem to calm down with you. So..." Bruce said.

"So, I can come with?" Wally asked and watched as Bruce looked over at Barry for a second before nodding his head. Wally sighed, he was so happy that he was being allowed to go with Dick, because everything in him screamed for him to not leave Dick alone right now. 

So, all four of them, Barry, Bruce, Wally, and Dick headed towards Gotham, towards The BatCave.

--------------------------------------------------------------

Wally's eyes widen as he glanced around the cave, it was everything he thought it would be and more! He was so fanboying right now but he knew that he had to hide it, he was lucky enough that Batman allowed him to enter and come over with Dick. 

Bruce took Dick to the medical wing with an older gentleman following behind. Wally waited, growing more impatient by the second. He wanted to see Dick, to hold his hand and to make sure he was okay, to make Dick feel safe again.

After what felt like forever, Wally was finally allowed back there with Dick while Bruce and Barry spoke. He didn't really care at the moment what they were discussing, all that was on his mind at the moment was making sure that Dick was okay. Wally walked back there and was greeted by the older gentleman who slowly checked Dick's vitals before exiting the medical wing. Wally sighed and slowly walked over and sat on the edge of the medical bed. Wally then reached out to take Dick's hand into his when the same energy shock went through both of their hands. 

Dick's blue eyes began to flutter open and he turned his head to the side. As soon as his eyes landed on Wally's face, did a small smile cross his pale face.

"Hi" he muttered and allowed his heavy eyes close again before opening them again and then reaching out for Wally's hand. Wally blushed slightly and smiled back down at Dick.

"Hey" said Wally then glanced over his shoulder to see Bruce standing there in the door way. Dick felt confused and slowly turned his head to see who or what Wally was looking at. As soon as his eyes landed on Bruce, his chest felt tight. Images of those pictures that his master sent Bruce flashed in his mind and without knowing, he gripped tighter on Wally's hand as he began to panic.

He could hardly breathe. He felt himself trembling and was now aware that he was now having a panic attack. He shut his eyes tightly, pleading for this to all stop, for him to be alright for once.

Wally looked down at Dick, fear washing over his face.

"Dick? Buddy?" questioned Wally but there was no answer.
Dick began to cry, also keeping his eyes tightly shut as he slowly began rocking back and forth,subconsciously trying to calm himself down. 

Dick could only heart the sound of his heart beat pounding in his ears and the need to breathe but the feeling as if there was no air left in the room. Dick couldn't hear Wally's or anyone else's voice as he continued to panic.
