A/N Okay I have no idea about these charactors or anything, so I'm going to guess really (Thankyou Wikipedia) but this plot is stuck in my mind, so I thought I'd write it down.

"Robin!" Starfire shrieked. Robin spun on his feet, blood dripping down his forehead. His heart froze and his blood ran cold.

Tony Zucco.

Despite the mindnumbing chaos, the sounds of guns being fired and engines revving, the battle cries of his team, he could only hear one thing, one voice;

"Hello Dick."

He had her. He had Star. He was supposed to be in jail. He was supposed to be dead. He'd been fried. Strapped down like the animal he was and electracuted until his skin was black.

Yet there he stand, with a rusty knife against his best friend's throat. A step down for a notorious gansgter, he thought. Then again, desperate times...

A strange glint of crazed victory shone in his wild eyes. Robin felt a rush of white hot anger rise in him, a furious, terrible rawr ripping through his throat. His fist were clenched so tightly his nails ripped through his glovees, drawing blood from his palm. He wanted to destroy him. He wanted to rip out his throat with his bare hands. He wanted to watch that arrogant gleam leave his eyes. But he didn't. He couldn't.

Instead, his voice shaking and his teeth clenched, he said loud enough for him to hear, "Let. Go. Of. Her."

He laughed, a high pitched unnatural sound that made Robin cringe. "Oh, and what do you intend to do about it, hm? Hit me with one of your little toys?"

His fingers subconciously curled around his belt, not bothering to identify what it was he was planning on using.

He saw a blue glint from behind the gangster. He spared a glance to see Cyborg, a tube shaped gun replacing his arm. He was sneaking up, surprisingly silent for someone of his size. They exchanged a glance, and Robing nodded. He looked back to Zucco, slowly approaching, his hands in front of him.

Zucco continued to laugh in a way that made Robin grind his teeth. He saw the smallest hint of red drip down her neck, slowly, taunting him, daring him.

Cybrog inched closer, his bulk of an arm raised, level with the gangster's head. Wait. Just wait...

"Oh," said Zucco suddenly, the ghost of laughter still on his face, "how are your parents doing?"

He lost it.

A rawr escaped his chest, a rawr you'd only hear from the most wild, untamed animal. He dove forward, ignoring any reason that tried to break through the rage. He tackled him, so quickly no one had seen it coming. Starfire was pushed to the side, nothing more then a cut left on her throat. She scooted back, true fear rising like bile in her throat at the savage look on her leader's face.

Robin felt the knife slice through the fabric of his uniform, warm blood dripping down his stomach. He felt his fist coming down--hard--on something. Something that cracked. Don't kill. Never kill. The reasonable voice murmered. It was only a buzz to him, barely worth a second thought. He felt Zucco's legs kicking at him, tossing him to his back. He saw him run the opposite direction. Running on pure adreneline, he scrambled to his feet and sprinted after him. He pushed past anyone in his way, whether it was his team or just an innocent bystander, he wasn't sure. One word pulsed through his blood.

Revenge.

He didn't know how long he ran, or how far. All he knew was that by the time the adreneline wore down, and his head wasn't a red haze of fury, he found himself standing in an alley. He was panting, sweat pouring from his face, the salty taste of blood sticking in his mouth, dripping down his chin.

"Tired, Dick?" was all he heard before a sharp stab of unbelievable pain in his back sent him stumbling forward, and a cold, rough hand held his head back, keeping him barely standing.

"Richard!" was the last thing he heard, before he succumbed to the oncoming darkness, never before so willing to fall into it.

A/N Eh, got kinda sloppy at the end there. BATMAN shall be appearing, and lots o drama a coming! I have a lot of scenerios going through my mind for this, and I don't know if I should have it in other peoples POV in here. Review and let me know, and you guys know I never ask for reviews, so God.
