"NightWing?" I whisper. There was a gunshot, then the rev of an engine. "NightWing!" I yell. I hear a groan from the east corner of the warehouse. I run faster than Wally to the noise, and find Dick curled in a ball, hands on his stomach. He sees my face, and takes his hands away, when I see his stomach is covered in blood, and so are his hands.
"Shit. Shit shit shit shit shit." I whisper. "What the fuck happened?"
"They got away. And don't swear, you sound like Jason." Dick whispered hoarsely. I radio M'gann.
"Where are you?" I ask quickly.
"Mount Ju-"
"Get the Bio-ship to Gotham, now. NightWing's been shot, and Batman's outta town. I'm sending you coordinates."
"Received. I'll be there as soon as I can."
"Batgirl out." I look at the blood on Dick's hands. He holds one up to my cheek.
"Babs..." He whispers.
"No names, remember?" I reply.
"Oh come on, we both know I'm not going to make it."
"Don't you dare talk like that!" I growl, trying not to cry. I start to do compressions, when he pulls my hands away.
"I-it's no u-u-use." He stutters.
"No, no, no. Dick, you will not die! You are forbidden!" I whisper, tears streaming down my face.
"P-promise m-me you'll m-m-move on. Promisiune?" I kiss His forehead.
"Promisiune."
"B-Babs, can y-you sing?" He squeaks. I nod, holding back tears.
"Say something I'm giving up on you. I'll be the one of you want me to. Anywhere I would've followed you. Say something I'm giving up on you." I lean Dick's head against my chest, my hand on his heart, making sure it still beats. He hums along slowly. "And I... am feeling so small. It was over my head, I know nothing at all. And I... will stumble and fall, I'm still learning to love. Just starting to crawl."

"Say something, I'm giving up on you.
I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you.
Anywhere I would've followed you.
Say something, I'm giving up on you."

"And I... will swallow my pride.
You're the one that I love.
And I'm saying goodbye."

"Say something, I'm giving up on you.
And I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you.
And anywhere I would've followed you (Oh-Ooh).
Say something, I'm giving up on you."
"Babs, I've a-a-always loved you. I'm s-sorry I left when you n-needed me." Dick whispers weakly. I kiss him on the fore-head.
"I love you too. Ever since we were kids." I whisper. "Promise me one thing. In the unlikely event that you die, promise you'll be an angel with a shotgun."
"P-promisiune. I'll t-t-tell your m-mom that you've g-g-grown up to be such a t-talented and b-b-beautiful woman. And I-I'll tell Mum and Dad all a-about you." His eyes start to close. "I l-love you." I put my hands on his chest.
"No, no, come on, come on! Just hold on!" I can't feel a pulse. I lay his body on the ground, and collapse onto my knees, my fave streaming with tears, face face buried into his silent chest.
"Say something, I'm giving up on you
Say something..." I whisper.

Third Person
Ten minutes later, M'gann, Connor, Wally, Artemis, Kaldur and Tim arrived in the bio-ship. Batgirl was still curled around NightWing's body. Connor tried to lift her from him, but she kicked him. It took Superboy, Aqualad and a taser to get Batgirl to let go, and even after that, both of the boys had black eyes and several broken ribs.

When Barbara resurfaced, she saw Connor carrying Dick to the infirmary. The last thing she saw before she blacked out was Dick's face, peacefully still.
