Slade stepped into the elevator Harley jumped in and it started down.

"I can't wait to see Mista J again!" she said happily. Slade said nothing. The elevator came to a stop and Harley jumped out. "Mista J!" Slade stepped out and walked behind Harley. The stairs that led further down into the hideout lowered as they came near it.

"Harley, baby!" came the Joker's voice. Harley jumped into the Joker's arms. Slade walked past both of them and came upon the Scarecrow.

"It's almost time." Slade told him as they walked into the control room. "Almost time..." He flipped a switch and Robin riding the R-cycle appeared on one of the many screens. Slade enhanced four screens. "Are they in place?"

"Of course." Scarecrow said with an evil smile. "The fear that they will cause will be most delicious."

"Indeed." Slade said as he watched Robin.

$$$

Robin flew down the highway the wind whistling in his ears. 'It feels good to get out on my own again.' He thought as he turned off into a small town.

The first stars had begun to appear in the sky. Robin's R-cycle stopped at a shabby inn and he got off taking off his helmet. The inn's name was, The Rockin' Inn. Robin shrugged and went inside.

Inside the inn wasn't too bad. There were a few cracks and leaks and most of the light bulbs had gone out making it seem kind of eerie. There was a couch with a thug sitting on it reading a newspaper. Across from the couch was a table where some more thugs were playing poker.

Everyone in the inn looked up as Robin came in. Some of them just went back to what they were doing, but most stared at Robin as if they didn't believe he just walked in here. 'I probably put most of these guys in jail.' Robin thought.

Walking past all the thugs Robin went up to the counter where a shabby looking man stood.

"I need a room for one night." Robin said calmly.

"Of course." The man croaked. Robin could see that most of the man's teeth had been rotted in turning them all a dark yellow. The man handed Robin a key and Robin handed the man some money.

When Robin got up into the room he looked around. There was a small twin sized bed in the corner with a T.V. in front of it. To the left of the door was a bathroom that Robin guessed had rats and stuff in it because it was dirty.

Sighing slightly Robin dropped his bag of food and clothes onto the bed. He opened the bag and took out some water. He dumped it into his hand washed his face with it, because there was no way that he would go into that bathroom. After drying his face on the bed sheets he turned on the T.V. Since this town was closer to Gotham it had the Gotham news on.

"No sightings of the Joker or Scarecrow today. All of Gotham is holding it's breath waiting for the two masked criminals to do something. Gotham Police Commissioner Gordon had this to say:" The Camera went to Commissioner Gordon.

"Rest assured that we are trying our best to find out where the Joker and Scarecrow are."

"What about Batman?" asked one reporter.

"Batman is trying his best also." The Commissioner said with a little hint of annoyance.

"We heard there was a third party involved is this true? And if it is do we know who it is?" asked another reporter.

"Although there have been signs of a third party involved there is no evidence that there is."

By this time Robin had tuned out the T.V. and had slowly begun to fall asleep.

$$$

The Commissioner closed the door on the reporters and sighed.

"Any leads?" asked a deep voice from inside his room. Gordon turned around and looked at The Batman.

"None. You?" Batman walked around the desk.

"There is a third party involved." Batman answered. "I talked to him. His name is 'S'" The Police Commissioner sighed and sat down.

"It's been a long two days." He said tiredly. "And we still haven't found them. They're planning something big. If only we knew what." Batman put his hand on the Commissioner's shoulder in a reassuring way, then he took it off again.

"Hey do you-"The Commissioner turned around, but Batman was gone. Sighing again the Commissioner got back to work.

$$$

Batman looked across Gotham city. Even though it was gloomier then most cities, it was still his city. The Dark Knight turned around and shot out his grappling hook. He hadn't thought that Commissioner Gordon would have any leads, but it had been worth a shot. 'I wonder if Catwoman has any leads.' Batman had become worried about the criminal feline, since he hadn't heard from her in two days.

Batman dropped next to the bat-car where Flash was leaning against it snoring. Shaking his head Batman pushed a button and the roof opened making Flash fall into the car. "Ow." He said.

Flash looked up and saw Batman standing over him. "I was just... I was..." Flash fumbled with the words. Batma simply shook his head and went to his side of the car.

$$$

Robin found himself on the left fork with Slade standing in front of him.

"Robin," Slade purred. "We meet again." Robin took out his pole and got into a fighting stance. Slade did the same. Then Robin charged swinging his pole at the masked Crime fighter, but Slade simply blocked it with his own pole.

Thrust, block, strike, block. It went on and on for seven minutes, until Robin thrust and Slade used his wrist to make his pole hit Robin's with so much force it knocked it out of his hand.

Slade took advantage of Robin's surprised state to knock and pin him to the ground. Robin struggled, but in vain. Slade threw his own pole on the ground and grabbed Robin's neck with his right hand. His left hand grabbed both of the younger boys wrists.

Slade's hand went to Robin's pulse in his neck. He began to caress that spot. "I could kill you." Slade said in a gentle tone, but his thumb added pressure making Robin choke.

"No...p...please... st... stop." Robin tried to say with a commanding tone, but it came out in a whimper. Slade chuckled. "Slade..." Robin said with a fearful voice.

"This is the punishment for your disobedience Robin." Slade said as the thorns and black roses on his side grew over and consumed the fields on the other. Robin heard his friends scream out in pain and began to struggle more violently. Slade laughed a cruel, sinister laugh.

Robin awoke with cold sweat rolling down his face. 'It was... was just a... dream?' he asked/told himself. He shivered the blankets had been thrown of him in the middle of the night. The T.V. was still on Cartoons were playing since it was a Saturday.

The Boy Wonder sat there watching bugs bunny and trying to rearrange his thoughts. His thoughts were however, interrupted as the person who had caused the nightmare appeared on the screen.

"Gotham City," Slade said in his calm voice. "I have planted four molecule bombs through out the city. In exactly Twelve hours they will detonate making the entire city and the smaller cities around it disappear, unless I get what I want or you find all four bombs in time. Twelve hours." The screen turned back to bugs bunny who pushed a bomb back to Elmer Fudd. Robin was surprised for only a second.

His communicator went off. Opening it Robin once again saw the face of his arch nemesis. "Slade." Robin said bitterly.

"Robin." Slade said in return. "I'm guessing you saw it."

"Yes." Robin said angrily.

"Ah, good, then you know what I want." Robin clenched his teeth together.

"I still have twelve hours to find the bombs. I might not have to become your apprentice." Slade smirked underneath the mask.

"We shall see. If you change your mind I'll be on your line." The communicator turned off and Robin growled angrily almost throwing the communicator at the wall. It took an hour to get to Gotham city form here, half an hour if he hurried. He better get started.

-Hour One- 6:00

Bruce Wayne flipped off the T.V. Flash was sleeping in the Bat-cave in a cot at the moment. After all it was six in the morning. Which was the strange thing. Most villains say there threats when everyone can here them. However, S did it when hardly anyone was awake... 'Strange indeed.' Thought the billionaire.

He looked out the window and saw a signal in the sky with the shape of a bat on it. He turned around and headed into the cave.

$$$

Flash heard a loud. "Get up." Which made him fall out of the cot he was sleeping in. Batman walked by heading for the bat-mobile. Flash yawned and got up.

"What time is it?" he asked stretching.

"Six o'clock." Batman said jumping into the car and starting it.

"Hey, wait for me!" Flash said and appeared in the seat next to the Dark Knight.

"Buckle up." Batman said before slamming down on the petal and heading out.

$$$

Catwoman woke up with a splitting headache. She opened her eyes slightly and tried to shake off the blurriness. 'What happened...?" she wondered what had happened then she remembered. She had been hit on the head by Harley Quinn and brought her to Slade who had told her that he was 'S' and then... he had sent electric sparks running through her body.

Catwoman struggled and realized that the restraints that were on her wrists had lessened considerably. She leaned forward and the broke. Landing on the floor in a cat like position she started out of the room.

The room led to a dark corridor that led to the main control room. The control room had a huge screen and on it were movies of Batman and the Teen Titans. She gasped slightly when she saw her own confrontation of the Dark Night and the Fastest Man.

'Wow,' she thought. 'He must have camera's up all over Gotham and this city.' She walked over to the control pad and when she was about to push a button numbers came on the screen and began counting down

Catwoman looked at the bottom of the screen and saw the words: Until self destruction.

Catwoman ran to the door and flung it open.

She jumped outside and kept running.

The building exploded sending Catwoman flying back. She landed half her mask having been burned off. She got up slowly and looked around. The hideout had been hidden within many old broken down warehouses.

Sighing Catwoman turned her back on the now burning building. 'I suppose the trip wasn't a complete waste...' Although just finding out Slade's name wasn't very convincing.

$$$

"Geeze how many of these things does this guy have!" Flash yelled as he punched another android. Batman and him had been looking in a warehouse for the bombs when they were attacked by a swarm of androids.

To Flash it just seemed that they kept coming an endless horde of androids. Flash ducked as to androids swung at him. Making them hit each other instead.

Batman threw an explosive bat-a-rang it exploded on one of the androids making five more explode. 'Too many,' thought Batman. 'We need another person.'

"Hey, tin heads!" came a voice. "Over hear!" Standing in the shadows was Robin. Batman looked at his partner surprised. 1/3 of the androids stopped fighting Flash and Batman and went to fight the Boy Wonder.

It took the trio about ten more minutes to beat the rest of the androids. Flash sighed.

"So where is the bomb?" he asked. Batman shook his head.

"The signal was just the androids." He answered. He looked at Robin and asked, "What are you doing here?" Robin looked at his mentor/partner/father.

"I heard the broadcast that Slade put out." He answered. Batman put away the detector.

'So Slade is 'S'.' he thought. "The tracking devises aren't going to work so we'll have to split up and search Gotham." Robin swallowed that was going to take awhile. I mean Gotham was a big place.

"I'll take the bat-jet and search by air. Flash you take the ground and Robin take the bat-sub and search the lake, then join Flash and search on the ground." All three nodded and went there opposite ways.

$$$

Slade folded his arms. "Eleven more hours."
