Renegade's POV

I think the worst part of being locked up down here was knowing, no one cares enough to save me. So either I had to save myself or die here because I sure as hell ain't going to become the Courts slave.

I was able to pick out one of the darts with my teeth and get it so I could cut my hands and legs free. Problem was Talon broke my right leg and sprang my left knee, from the looks of it.

I would have easily just walked on my hands but he broken both my arms too. I could hop on my leg with the sprained knee and just suck up the pain. But then I thought of why I had to save myself. Cause no one cares about me. So what would I do after I got free? I had no where to go, no one to turn to. I'm just as good here as out there. At least now I'm not killing anyone.

The Talon had long since taken off my mask but it didn't matter. He still didn't know who I was. I've been supposedly dead for four years. And no one cares to remember a lonely dead orphan. Plus I'm far from the little boy I once was. The only way people could even think we were the same person was the mess black hair, and blue eyes.

The door unlocked and I realized I took too long and I missed my only chance to escape. The Talon would never be stupid enough to tied me up in rope again. I was about to be in a world of pain. I wondered how much more I could take.

But it wasn't the Talon or anyone from the Court that came in. It was Roy. "Ren," he said in a soft voice. I laughed, "I never thought I would start see thing. I get the fact that I'm going insane but now I'm having hallucinations. I'm just completely-"

I was cut off by Roy saying "Dick," a grin spread across his face, and I realize he was real. No one else could be in a place like this and smiled at the joke that is my name.

No it's not real, I told myself. It can't be, but it has to be. He's actually here to save me. "Roy?" I said happy, relieved, surprise and and little angry all at the same time.

I saw that Artemis and Superboy were also in the room. I quickly and sloppy got up to my leg with the torn knee and hopped over to them. I grabbed my utility belt putting it around my waist and then grabbed sword to us as a sort of crutch.

" Talon sure did a number on you. Or should I say letter." He said wavering his hand at the T made from the darts that were still on my chest. I smiled at the joke.

"What type of self righteous, suicidal, idiot are you?" I asked following them down the hallway on my sword cane. "Funny, I was just about to say the same thing to you." I rolled my eyes and I felt the poison that the Talon had put in my flow through my vein. It's not going to kill me, he didn't want to kill me. I'm almost to the ship so I just have to hold on. And don't freak out cause that will make my blood will flow faster. When we got to ground level I could hear the fighting.

"I told them that we got Renegade and they are going to pull out of the fight. Let quickly get to the ship and go. Conner cover us." Everything was starting to go fuzzy. Keep going, I told myself. But Roy had noticed that I had started to slow down. "Ren?Ren?" I collapsed.

I felt Roy pick me up and carry me to what I assumed was Miss Martian ship thingy. My mind felt sluggish, I couldn't think. I felt myself being laid down.

"Ren, Ren, fuc-" before he could finish I said, "language. Calm down its just poison." But it wasn't, I knew what it was but I couldn't put a name to it. I could put a face though, scarecrow. It's his poison. No, not poison it-its. "Fear toxicity." I choked out.

I closed my hand into a fist. I could handle fear toxicity. Slade had never tried it on me before, he thought it was inhuman punishment. That almost made me laugh, that was inhuman but everything else he did to me wasn't. My eyes keep shifting in and out of focus. Till the image of the team standing over me had faded completely. And the screams began.
