Tuesday:

"When will he be here?" asked M'gann.

"Soon, probably," answered Kaldur. "Nightwing said he would take Robin here today to go on a mission with the team."

Wally stood up and stretched. "It'll be good to have a Robin around here again. Nightwing's good, but now he's acting all mature and whatever…"

"And I've never even known a Robin on the team," added Tula.

Nightwing, B01 announced the Zeta tube.

Everyone looked up eagerly.

"Dude, what's up? I thought we were getting a new member today?" asked Wally as Nightwing walked in alone.

Nightwing silently handed Wally a note, which was opened and read.

"Dear Team,

I apologiez apalojize apologize for not being able to come on the mission with you, and causing you to have to change your plans. I am in the hospital, getting stitches on my stomack.

I hope to meet you all next week.

~Robin

P.S. Never run with sissors. "

Wally finished reading and folded up the letter. "Ok… Next week then!"

"Just a warning. Batman made him write the note. So don't expect him to be so polite when he actually gets here," added Nightwing.

"I'll remember that," said Tula.

…

Monday:

"Again?" Wally asked, accepting the note from Nightwing.

"Dear Team,

I will not be joining you this week, I'm being grounded because I called Harley Quinn a $%!# something bad that I should never call women ever again. And I should never make general assumpshuns about girl villains, they could be wrong. See you in three days.

~Robin

Wally put the note down.

M'gann picked it up. "What was it he called-"

"You don't want to know," said Nightwing. "I'd never heard it, and Batman had to tell me what it meant."

"Ok then," said Artemis. "Next time."

Friday:

"If he hadn't been complaining for the past two weeks about how much he wanted to come here, I would be thinking that maybe he didn't," Nightwing said, handing another note to Wally.

"Man, this is getting ridiculous," said Wally, opening the note.

"Dear Team,

I'm not coming again, because I broke the Batmobile. And the Batmobile is a weaponized vehicle, not a toy and I will never touch it without permission ever again. I know this now because I wrote it out 100 times. My hand hurts. And I'm grounded for a week.

~Robin

"He broke the Batmobile?" M'gann asked, aghast. "How?"

"We still don't really know," said Nightwing. "See you all next week."

"This really is getting ridiculous," said Artemis.

Saturday:

"Maybe we should just try this when he's older, and better behaved," suggested Wally, opening the note Nightwing had handed him.

"Dear Team,

I can't come this time because I got into a fight with my brother and broke his hand-"

Wally broke off and looked at Nightwing, who held up a hand encased in a black cast.

"- and he gave me a nose bleed and now I'm grounded for the day. Although this wasn't all my fault, he shouldn't have teased me about the books I like. Its not my fault I'm better than you I will not fight with family and team members.

~Robin

"At this rate we're not going to see him until he's Nightwing!" Wally said, exasperated.

"Hey, there is only one Nightwing, and he does not share power…"

"What?" said Tula.

"Never mind. We have a villain to track. Let's get on it," said Nightwing.

Sunday:

Nightwing crossed his arms. "Brace yourselves."

Superboy, Wally, and Tula stopped what they were doing.

"Why?" Asked Wally.

"I'm Batman," a low voice growled next to his ear.

"Holy carp!" Wally yelled, speeding away and reappearing next to Nightwing.

Nightwing raised an eyebrow. "Really?"

The teenage boy crouching on the edge of the couch jumped down and mimicked Nightwings stance. "Your friends scare easy."

"Robin?" Tula asked hesitantly.

Robin grinned at her. "Yep! The one, the only and the best!"

Nightwing walked over and pushed him.

"Hey!"

Two seconds later a full fledged fight had broken out.

"Cut it out!" Tula ordered, reaching in and grabbing Nightwings arm.

"I dare you to say that I started it," taunted Robin.

"Jerk," muttered Nightwing, letting Tula help him up. "KF, Supes, keep an eye on this joker for me, will you? Tula and I will go over the mission file."

Nightwing and Tula left the rec room, and Wally and Superboy looked at the teen still sitting on the floor.

"How old are you?" Superboy asked suddenly.

Robin tipped his head to the side. "Thirteen. Why?"

Superboy crossed his arms. "From your letters, I assumed you'd be closer to eight years old."

"Hey!" Robin jumped to his feet and took two steps forwards into Superboy's personal space. "So I'm not good at writing letters, so what? Batman made me write'em, its not like I wanted to."

Wally grinned, and ruffled Robins hair, using his super speed to dodge the punch Robin tried to throw at him. "You're a lot more sensitive than the last Boy Wonder."

Robin rolled his eyes. "I am not. Nightwings so touchy, its ridiculous."

Wally frowned. "Hey, no bad mouthing the Team Leader."

Robin grinned again. "Or what?"

Wally took a step forward. " You wanna be on this team, you respect the rules."

Robin shrugged. "From what I heard, this place was supposed to be more fun than hanging around with the grownups all day. What a rip off." He smirked at Superboy. "Then again, should have known you'd just bed a copy of the boy scout."

"You little-"

Wally and Superboy both lunged for Robin at the same time, who was unable to evade them. Robin tried to shift so Wally would be hit in the stomach, but at the same time, Superboy grabbed his arm. They all went down, with all of Superboy's weight on Robins arm.

Crunch

"Aaah!"

"Whoops," said Superboy.

Tula and Nightwing came running back in.

"What happened!"

Wally got up, trying to help the injured teen stand. "This is why we can't have nice things."

Nightwing quickly came over and examined Robins arm. "Nah, we got him cheap, he breaks easy. Ow!"

Robin sniffled a bit, then used the uninjured hand he had just used to punch Nightwing to scrub at his eyes.

Nightwing awkwardly patted him on the head. "Sorry kid, It's back home for you."

"But I just got here," complained Robin, in a voice that was suspiciously quivery.

"I know, but Agent A will patch you up, and you'll be back in no time to annoy everyone some more," promised Nightwing, leading Robin to the zeta tubes.

Robin paused for a moment before zetaing through. "Bye! I'll be back to go on a mission soon!"

Wally shook his head. "Wow."

Superboy looked concerned. "Do you think he's ok?"

Wally threw an arm around his friends shoulder. "Him? He's fine, I'm very sure it's not the first bone he's broken. Or the last. He'll make a great Robin."

Tula walked over. "Yes he will. From what Nightwing told me, I think he'll fit right in," she laughed. "He'll be my Robin, like Nightwing was yours! We'll stick together like glue. Him and me. I can feel it."
