A/N: My internet's been acting funky, which somehow gave me inspiration for this. I don't know why. I'm sorry that it took so long for me to update this. Life has been really hectic and I didn't have much motivation for my stories, except for the zombie one.

The ground began to shake, almost launching the Titans off the platform. The audience screamed as the lights sparked and fell. The Titans crouched low to keep themselves from falling.

"What's going on?" Beast Boy shouted.

"Robin knows this world isn't real! It's beginning to collapse!"

The base of the platform began to crack and crumble, sending the Titans flat on their stomachs. Starfire looked up to see Robin standing on the edge of the platform.

"Robin!" The boy turned around and smiled at her. It wasn't Dick's smile though; it was her Robin's smile.

"Do what you need to, Star. I'll see you soon."

The ground rumbled once more, sending the boy—Robin—over the edge.

"Robin!"

The platform tipped, and the Titans scrambled to find anything to hold on to to keep them from falling off. Cyborg slipped and went tumbling towards the edge, but Beast Boy changed into an octopus and grabbed him with one of his tentacles. Beast Boy was stretched thin holding Cyborg with one tentacle and the support beam with another.

The support beam cracked as another earthquake shook the tent. It snapped, and Cyborg and Beast Boy went careening over the edge. Starfire and Raven followed after to catch them.

As they fell, the scenery changed around them. The circus faded away, leaving the dark, eerie skyline of Gotham City. The dirt ground changed to grass, and buildings shimmered into view, including the luxurious, gothic mansion they had seen before. Once again, the boy and the man were standing out front, gazing at the night sky.

Starfire and Raven set the boys down on the grass.

"What are we supposed to do here?" Beast Boy asked. "We knew what to tell Robin at the circus, but we don't know what happened between them because Robin never talks about Batman! What are we supposed to make him realize?"

"Exactly what you said, Beast Boy." Raven said, causing the teens to stare at her in surprise. She glared back.

"He needs to realize that he is no longer a child living with his guardian." Raven frowned. "When I was inside Robin's mind, I got a glimpse of some of his memories. One of them was the fight between him and Batman. It was…bad."

"How bad?" Beast Boy asked.

"…It's not my story to tell, but trust me when I say that it was bad." Raven watched the father and son. "He hasn't spoken to Batman since he came to Jump."

"Poor Robin…" Starfire was also watching the father and son, tears glistening in her eyes. She hated that she had to break Robin's heart once. Now, she was going to have to do it again!

"Guys, I don't think we've talked about the actual problem here." Cyborg said.

"What do you mean?" Beast Boy asked. Cyborg gestured to Bruce Wayne.

"How are we going to get Robin alone? I doubt Bruce Wayne—the Batman—is going to let us talk to his kid alone."

"We wait for him to go to bed." The Titans turned towards Raven. "The other fantasy has been shattered, so it will no longer switch between the two. This one will be lived out without any interruption so eventually, he'll have to sleep."

The other Titans nodded and sat down to wait. Robin and Bruce Wayne—it was still hard to think of him as Batman—didn't stay out for long. They waited a few minutes before beginning to look through windows. Cyborg looked through the first floor windows near the front of the mansion, and Beast Boy had the windows near the back. Starfire had the second story windows near the front while Raven had the ones near the back.

"I have found him, friends." Starfire spoke into her communicator quietly so as not to alert Robin to her presence.

Robin was sitting up in his bed, his head bowed. Starfire opened the window and quietly floated into the room. She wanted to go in before the others arrived. She didn't want to scare Robin by having everyone come in at once. She approached the bed slowly.

"You're here to tell me it's not real, aren't you?"

Starfire jumped. "Robin?"

Robin lifted his head. He had been crying.

"You're here to tell me this isn't real." He rubbed at his eyes. "I saw you and those other people earlier, and you guys looked familiar, but I didn't know how and—" Robin paused and sniffled. "Something felt off. I—I knew something was wrong, but—but I didn't want to believe it was wrong."

The others arrived but stayed by the window.

"I am sorry, Robin. It is not real."

Raven stepped forward. "You were attacked by Black Mercy, causing you to live in a perfect, fantasy world in your mind."

Robin nodded, but he refused to look Raven in the eyes. He kept his eyes on his hands, which fiddled with his blanket. He whispered. "Am I bad for not wanting it to stop?"

"No, dude. Anybody would want to stay in their perfect fantasy. That's why it's perfect!" Beast Boy grinned. "But you're strong, dude."

"I don't wanna be alone."

"You don't have to be alone." Cyborg smiled. "You have us."

"I miss him."

"Then call him." Robin's head shot up in surprise. Raven wasn't fazed. "It's been long enough, Robin. Talk to him."

Robin bit his lip. "What if he doesn't like me anymore?"

"You're bossy, angry, and a serious workaholic—" The others glared at Cyborg. "—but you're our friend. That means we like you! We've had our fights, but we've always gotten over them. It's time for both of you to get over the fight you guys had."

The ground suddenly shook, and the Titans knew their job was done. Robin looked up at all of them, smiling with fresh tears in his eyes.

"Thank you."

A/N: I gotta say that this was really hard to write. I had so much writer's block. I would just write this in small pieces at a time. However, I finally got it done. I hope you enjoyed! Review!

Love,
