It's been quite a while after we 'met' the JLA. I was waiting for Dick to come back from the store. Since we needed groceries we decided to split up looking for it. Though that's not the problem right now. It's been 15 minutes past the time he promised he'll be here.

I looked at my phone, my finger hovering over Terry's number. But I couldn't get myself to push it. Maybe Dick is being a dick. I thought as I tried to calm myself down. I quickly stepped out into the Gotham streets. I spent most of the day searching everywhere for Dick. Although I didn't see him.

"Dick!" I started to worry. I took out my phone and tried to call Dick's phone. I stopped in my tracks. Someone answered, but all I could hear was heavy breathing. "Dick?" I questioned the breathing. A scream played before the person hung up.

"Oh no..."

It had been a few minutes after that. Almost everyone is here. Tim was trying to trace the call. "Jason, say something" Cassie sat next to me. She also had no one, but since she was older she managed to snag a job.

"Why did I leave him alone? He's my brother" I couldn't focus on them. I heard talking, but all I could think about was what could be happening to Dick.

Somewhere else, a boy was hugging his knees. Praying and hoping. Although he knew his prayers would never be answered.

The inspiration for this chapter is a podcast called "Up and Vanished" I recommend it soooo much if you love crime. It's about this dude who found out about a missing persons case cause he was curious. So he tried to see if he could solve or help solve the case. It had been a cold case for 10 years, I believe, and he actually finds some stuff so yeah.
