This is based off a dream I had that was from an OC of mine's POV. I've had alot of people say that my stories shouldn't have my OCs in them, but when I have dreams about my stories, they always seem to be from her POV, so I go with it. Just saying this now.


Chapter One

Ra's' Oil Rig Near the Outer Hebrides of Scotland

Talia was doing her damnedest to get out of Deathstroke's grip, but his assassins and followers caught her every time she tried.

"I have to give you this, Talia; you are resilient, just like your father was. Even that brat of yours is resilient." Deathstroke told Talia as his followers chained her back up.

"You will NOT touch him." Talia shouted at her captor as she tried to free her wrists.

"We'll see about that." Deathstroke said and with that he left the room.

Gotham

Dick was concerned…..sure Damian was given Bruce's permission to be Robin, but what if he went TOO far, like he almost did with Ubu. Dick, along with a female, were still in the Batcave with Langstrom, but they were far enough away to not be overheard.

"Dick, don't worry; Bruce trained us well, and yea, Damian was trained by the League of Assassins, but he's with Bruce now, he'll learn." A dark haired female said.

"I know, Reiena, but he's just so….." Dick said then he let out a frustrated cry. "He's somehow going to get to that oil rig, I just know it."

"Well then, let's go keep an eye on the rig while Bruce heads that way." Reiena said.

Dick was concerned at first, they learned that Deathstroke had actually KILLED Ra's, so he was tough, but they had to protect Bruce's biological son. Reiena had gone into the changing area and returned in a uniform that was a deep gray with a red bird on the chest.

"You go ahead, Flamebird; I'll help Langstrom get the antidote loaded up into the Batjet once he's done." Dick/Nightwing said.

"Alright, be careful out there, from what Batman and Robin said, these Man-Bats are fast AND strong." Flamebird said, and with that she lifted herself off her feet and flew off to get to Scotland.

"From what I've read about you and Flamebird….she's grown more powerful with that fire ability of hers." Langstrom said.

"Yea, but right now, we have to get the antidote loaded up." Nightwing said.

"Right."

With that said, the scientist and the hero started getting the antidotes ready for injection into the Man-Bats.

Five Miles from Rig

Young Robin popped his head out of the water not far from the rig where he knew his mother was being held. His assassin training gave him the endurance to swim the 50 miles from the coast of Scotland to the Rig. He was ready for this, and he was going to end Deathstroke.

He got to the rig and was silently taking out any guards that he saw on his way to the interior. Robin soon found a room that had TWO guards outside the door and he KNEW his mother was in there. As he waited for the right time, Damian was grabbed from behind by the very person he was swearing revenge on.

"So nice of you to come, BOY."

"Let me go." Robin shouted to his captor as he struggled.

"You mother wishes to see you….then you'll BOTH die today."

Robin was carried into the room and saw his mother chained to the wall. He struggled harder to get free, but he couldn't as he was lifted up to a set of shackles and they were quickly placed around his wrists. Damian hung from the ceiling and just glared at Deathstroke as more shackles were raised up from the floor and secured around his ankles.

The new rustling of chains awakened the resting Talia and her face went from one of anger at Deathstroke to dread when she saw her son chained up so he couldn't escape.

"So, Talia… it's up to you. Choose me as your husband and the new leader of the League; or little Damian dies." Deathstroke remarked.

"Don't do it, Mother." Damian/Robin screamed.

"You can try to kill my son, but there are people out there that are going to keep that from happening." Talia said, her face going to a look of defiance.

"I highly doubt that. The sperm donor doesn't know where we are." Deathstroke said as he turned to Robin.

"You're wrong Deathstroke; we DO know where you are." A voice said.

Only Talia recognized it and turned to the window where there was a feminine figure standing on the window sill. Her hair blew in the wind, and there seemed to be a strange heat coming off of her body.

"And just who are you?" Deathstroke asked.

"What…you don't remember me, Deathstroke, well maybe a little demonstration will help." The heroine stated before she jumped from the window sill and right for the assassin/mercenary.

The two fought and it was then that he recognized her style. "So, Batman sends the little Cardinal to bring his brat home."

"I'm Flamebird now, and you'll wish you hadn't messed with my family." Flamebird remarked as she kept fighting off Deathstroke's attacks.

"These two are no blood to you." Deathstroke said as he was able to grab his sword from its sheath and cut Flamebird's left arm.

"They may not be blood, but Robin IS my little brother, so you better back off." Flamebird said as she held the cut and it quickly singed closed.

"Then you will die along with him and his mother." Deathstroke said as he pulled out a gun. "It's your choice, brat."

"Then I choose to save them and keep you from ever hurting them again." Flamebird remarked. She then formed a couple of fireballs out of nowhere and they went right for Talia's chains. The fireball burned through them quickly and she fell to the floor weak from the torture she had endured.

"Mother." Robin called out.

Talia quickly gathered her strength and got up. Once she was stable on her feet, she walked to where Damian was chained up and started to unchain his ankles.

"I WILL kill both of you." Deathstroke said as he turned from his fight with Flamebird and fired the gun he had quickly pulled.

Damian saw the bullet leave the gun, but he couldn't do anything as he was still chained up. Talia it seemed didn't care about the bullet as she just wanted to get her son away from this madman.

"NOOOOO; MOTHER." Damian cried out.

Flamebird was beyond pissed off as Deathstroke turned his attention back to her and she fought him around the room until she got him close to the very window she entered through and gave a strong kick to his chest…sending him flying out of the window. Flamebird then ran to where Damian and Talia were, and checked for a pulse in Talia.

"Is she alright?" Robin asked, concern actually showing in his voice now.

Flamebird didn't say anything as she sent a couple of fireballs at the chains holding the young Robin. As the chains melted from the heat, Flamebird picked up Talia.

"Let's go." Flamebird said as she ran out of the room carrying Talia with Damian not far behind.

Route to Rig

Batman had a bad feeling that his son was in trouble, so he was taking his glider to get to the oil rig. Suddenly his comm beeped and he activated it.

"I'm en route now for the Rig, anything I need to know." Batman said to the person on the other end.

"Flamebird's already there, she wanted to see what she could do, but I haven't heard from her." The person said back.

"I'm sure she'll contact you soon enough, Nightwing; how's the antidote coming?" Batman said back.

"Langstrom's finished it and it's ready to go whenever you give the word." Nightwing said.

"Alright, I'll let you know. Batman out." Batman said and with that he went back to his flight.
