An 시간 또는 so later, the medical wing was filled with bustling JLAers. The Young Justice team sat outside in the “waiting room”. Shouts rang out and beeps could be heard from several different locations. Every one was filled with worry and fear. Tension was clearly inside the mountain and there was too much activity to think quietly. Eventually, 배트맨 exited. He walked towards the team, mainly his son. His face was grim.
“Is she going to be okay?” Robin asked.
“Eventually. But not for a few weeks. Several of her lungs were punctured, multiple fractures, blood loss, and a very high chance of concussion.”
“And she'll be okay?”
“In time.”
“But she can't go on missions!” Megan exclaimed. “And we can't be here for her every 초 of the day! She's going to need constant care!”
“Which is why I've arranged for her to stay with Robin and myself.”
“Is that safe?”
배트맨 raised his eyebrows and silenced the speedster.
“And...what's going to happen in the mean time?” Artemis asked.
“With.”
“With the team. Becca's pretty useful and we'll need her on some missions. At least her equipment. 당신 know, her vials and safety precautions.”
“She will wake in the 다음 hour. I will ask her is she has any problem with 당신 taking control of her utility belt. But until then, there is no need to worry. And we know who did this and why. They will be dealt with quickly and quietly. When drugged, Shade tells the truth. We've learned that very quickly.”
“Will we get to see her?”
“When she wakes.” 배트맨 looked at his protege. “I will inform 당신 when she does.”
Robin nodded as his mentor walked away, sinking back into his seat. He rested his head in his shaking hands, releasing a sigh of relief.
“Glad that's over,” he admitted.
“Batman said he knew who did it,” Artemis commented. “So why didn't he tell us?”
“Maybe it's a JLA thing,” Wally suggested shrugging.
“Or maybe it doesn't really matter. Becca's going to be okay.”
“You guys are right. I'm just being paranoid.”
“Eh. 당신 may have picked up a little too much from Robin,” Wally teased.
A quick 'zoom' was heard down the hall. A 초 later, Flash stood in front of them.
“Becca's up.” He looked at Robin. “She's asking for you.”
“Okay. Are we all allowed in?”
“One at a time. Sorry.”
Robin nodded and followed the Flash to Becca's room. He entered. Becca was lying in bed, bandages around her and various casts healing her fractured bones. Her eye was black and her head was wrapped in a gauze strip. She smiled tiredly when he entered.
“Hey,” she greeted.
“Hi. How 당신 feeling, love?” Robin asked, crouching to look in her eyes.
“Sore. But 당신 know what would make me feel better?”
“Hmmm?”
“If 당신 took your mask off.”
“Becca.”
“Please Robin? For me?”
Even banged up and hurting, Becca's brown 강아지 dog eyes had the desired effect. With a defeated sigh, Robin removed his mask. Becca smiled tenderly.
“Thank you. It helps to see the real you.”
“Hm. I wish I could be this way all the time.”
“So talk to Batman. Please. I hate seeing 당신 have to be all....in disguise.”
“And I hate seeing 당신 all hurt.”
They fell silent, each with their own thoughts. Becca turned to look back at Robin. She stared in his blue eyes, a mixture of fear and hope in hers.
“Robin...we aren't going to....loose each other because of this. Right?”
“Of course not.”
“Good. I don't want to loose you; you're the best thing that's ever happened to me.”
“Same here. If I 로스트 you...I might do something really stupid. 더 많이 than Wally stupid. And these fights we've been having? They seem too planned to be real. I don't think we have anything to worry about Becca love. Trust me.”
“I do.”
Robin narrowed his eyes, searching Becca's face.
“You're worried.”
“Yes. What about Wonder Girl?”
“What about her Bec?”
“Well...what are we going to do? I don't think she should be on the team.”
“Because 당신 don't like her?”
Becca held her tongue, refusing to speak. It was odd for her to 대합, 조개 up but there was always a good reason. Right?
“What's wrong?” Robin asked.
“Nothing. I'm just thinking.”
“Liar.”
“No. I really am thinking. Just not about your question.”
“What are 당신 thinking about?”
“Nothing interesting.”
“...”
“It's true.”
“...”
“Nothing of interest to anyone but me. Cause I'm weird like that.”
“...”
“Ugh! Fine! I was thinking about the stupid fanfic couples I told 당신 guys about.”
“Why?”
“I don't know. I guess I was trying to figure out what it would be like. For 당신 guys to have that kind of interaction I mean.”
“You are so weird.”
“I know.”
“But I 사랑 you.”
“I 사랑 당신 too.”
Becca reached her hand up and cupped Robin's cheek. He instinctively reaches up to hold it there. After a 분 또는 two, Becca brings her hand to the back of Robin's head. She pulls him down and their lips meet in perfect unison. But something nags at the back of Becca's head. Something Cassie had said earlier. No matter what happens to me, your life is only short lived...
