Robin Investigates: A Brother's Worst Nightmare
"W...what? The hell do you mean 'more than human'?"
"Little over a year ago I was active in Gotham, taking Sanctuary in my former utopia of Wonder City. You might recall when I summonsed you to my personal chamber, where a Lazarus Pit was."
"Yeah...you had me fight some zombie experiment you made from the pit. Some kind expendable soldiers you said....wait, did you--"
"Ah, you've caught on. The best part is I've had time to perfect these mindless drones. The one Jackie is facing is most like three times as strong as the one I had you battle."
"W--what?! You're making him fight a freaking super zombie!? In a sewer?!"
"For god sake's Ra's, he's like eleven!"
"With his powers he should be able to slay the monster with ease. If the grim atmosphere I set up failed to bring about fear in him, Jackson should do just fine. Hopefully you trained him to deal with that. Fear..."
"AHHH!!!"
"I admittingly have been wrong before."
"Th-that was Jackie!"
That scream echoed through the halls. Yet he was in another part of the palace as far as we know. Steph runs away from us, presumably where Jackie's scream came from. Hell, even though my everything was sore I tailed her. He both find these arches at the bottom of a wall barred off. The area behind them was dark, but I could make out a bit of a hallway. I could hear fast footsteps and moaning straight from a cheesy monster movie.
"Jackie!! JACKIE!!!"
"If you can hear us, listen! Don't be afraid! it's just what he wants!! Jackie!?"
"Enough, Children. At this rate your words fall on deaf ears. Only Jackson can save himself now. By the sound of it his chances are slim, though."
"You heartless old bastard! How can you something this horrible to a kid like Jackie!? He's already tormented enough!"
"I've told you already, Stephanie. Jackie is more than just human. It wouldn't be a fair trial if he faced a trail of normal human expectations."
This has to be one of my worst nightmares. Jackie's basically my little brother, and right now there's a literal monster out for his blood. I can't do a damned thing to help him. No...NO! I gotta trust him! He can do this! If he survived hell at STAR labs when he was younger he can survive this. Well, at least I hope. C'mon, little buddy. You said to Steph you'd be alright. Prove yourself right...please. She doesn't want to lose you. I don't wanna lose you...
