Author's Notes: I'm like so excited right now because you guys don't know how long I've been waiting to do an apprentice story! I read so many on here but I could never think up one myself but yeah baby I have now XD

The Teen Titans, Batman, The Joker, Harley Quinn and various other familiar characters will also be featured in this story so it is kind of crossover of Teen Titans and Batman the Animated Series. OH!

Enjoy!

OoOoOoOoOoO

Robin did an acrobatic back tuck flip in the air as he landed on another rooftop before he stopped and looked over the bleak harbor of Gotham City. He didn't realize until now how much he missed his hometown since under the current circumstances, he had no desire to be here. He hadn't "per se" been forced to come back to Gotham city but when Batman ordered him to come back home immediately, it was really hard to say no to the Dark Knight.

It had been a week since Slade had forced Robin to be his apprentice and threatened to kill his friends by activating nanoscopic probes that he has planted in their blood. Robin had thought that was all done and over with but unfortunately Batman had seen footage of him robbing Wayne Enterprises while he was still Slade's apprentice and demanded at once Robin come home to explain himself.

Of course, Robin tried to explain to what had happened to him but Bruce refused to listen, he said he wanted to hear it in person. Though, Robin had a feeling Bruce just wanted an excuse to lecture him.

So Robin grudgingly left San Francisco, where he was staying with the Titans and left for Gotham. But when he came home to Wayne Manor, he found that Bruce wasn't even home, he was at all day business meeting. Robin was excited though to see Alfred and Barbara but he only saw Barbara for a second since she was leaving to go on a field trip with her university for the whole week. But after he caught up with Alfred a bit, Robin then decided to go off and patrol the city since he didn't like waiting around to be lectured by Bruce. And Gotham was surprising quiet but its lack of crime did give Robin time to think about Bruce and the Titans, like how the Titans reacted when he told them he was leaving for Gotham.

Cyborg and Beast Boy didn't say anything to him about it but he definitely knew how they felt when Starfire wished him goodbye.

OoO

"I'll miss you Robin!" Starfire cried as she hugged him in a deathly grip. "Come visit please or talk the phone with me!"

"Star, I'll only be gone for a few days," Robin choked out, patting her back. "I'm coming back."

"Really?" Starfire asked while her green eyes lighted up. "Oh glorious! Cyborg and Beast Boy said you are the man-bat's side kick and you would have eventually gone back to him."

Robin gritted his teeth but then smiled, "I'm his… I mean was his partner but I belong here now, Starfire. This is only temporary."

"Good," Starfire simply said as she kissed Robin on the cheek.

OoO

Robin touched his cheek at that thought and felt himself blush but then shook it off. He couldn't believe he was falling for someone on his team, it was so unprofessional and he knew Batman would not approve but Robin couldn't get his mind off Starfire though. She was so-

The sound of breaking glass drew Robin away from his thoughts as a pawn shop was being robbed below him. Robin immediately jumped down towards the store, actually glad there was some trouble just so he could distract his mind for a bit.

OoOoOoOoOoO

"Oh puddin', how does this look on me?" Harley Quinn slurred as she crawled onto the cashier counter top where the Joker was jamming in money into a bag from the broken register machine. She played with her red and black jester hat while she tried to show off a huge diamond engagement ring she had taken from the front window of the pawn shop since she was pretending the Joker had just asked to marry her.

"Harley, stop goofing around!" Joker yelled, angrily as he pushed her off the counter top.

Harley let out a squeak when she fell on the ground and let another squeal when he threw a leather bag on her head.

"Get over there and rob something!"

Harley pouted as she stood up and picked up the bag. All she wanted was loving from precious 'puddin' but ever since they escaped Arkham Asylum a few weeks ago, he haven' been in any good moods. Though, Harley couldn't blame him since he had lost all his hard earned money while being locked up.

So Harley couldn't stay mad at Mr. J since he had been through so much but yet he wasn't giving up and that was a quality Harley loved about him! Sure, they were robbing lower end stores but Harley was confident they would be robbing banks and gangsters again in no time then he would be such a good mood he'll realize his love for her!

Harley sighed as she glanced at her green haired, white face and ruby red lipped love, feeling like she was falling all over again in love. She then began humming happily as she picked though the jewelry in the display glass but let out a shriek when she suddenly saw a figure gliding down towards the pawn shop.

"The Bats here!" Harley Quinn frantically cried while she took out her gun from her purse.

The figure though turned out to be Robin as he crashed through the front door and threw a birdarang at Harley Quinn's hands, making her drop her gun.

"It's only bird boy," Joker laughed his infamous laugh while he pulled out his gun. "Aww back at Gotham I see? Well why don't you come back to our place and we're give you a welcome back party you'll never forget!"

"It's over, Joker," Robin growled as he pulled out electric discs, threatening to throw them at him.

"Hate to break it to you, brat but you're not very threatening without your daddy bat here."

Robin gritted his teeth as he threw the discs at him but the Joker jumped aside and began shooting at him while Harley quickly picked her gun up and also joined in.

Robin threw a smoke bomb down on the ground and disappeared from their sight.

"Come on!" Joker snarled while yanking Harley by her arm as they ran out the back way of the store. They both ran down swiftly towards their getaway car at the end of the alleyway before Harley abruptly let out cry and fell down.

Her ankles had been entangled by Robin's birdarang lasso but Joker didn't stop and left her behind as he continued to run away. Robin though swopped down from a rooftop and knocked the Joker over onto his stomach, making him drop his gun and the bags.

Robin then jumped on his back and twisted his arms behind his back before he hissed, "You never change, Joker so I don't know why they won't just give you a lobotomy!"

"Ohhh heh..heh that's pretty dark coming from you bird boy. I'm delightedly surprised though….heh, heh."

"Shut up!" Robin yelled, banging Joker's head into the ground while he took out handcuffs from his utility belt.

"Hey Bucko! You like throwing things, eh? Well catch!" Robin heard Harley Quinn yell before a metal trash can lid came flying towards his face. He didn't have enough reaction time to move out of the way so the metal lid hit him right in the forehead, knocking Robin out cold.

"Are you okay, Mistah' J?" Harley asked as she pulled off the rest of the ropes around her ankles. It had been such luck that trash can lid had been near her or they would have been on their way back to Arkham.

The Joker kicked Robin's unconscious body off him before standing up and composing himself. "Thanks Harv, for a second there I thought the brat had me."

"I do anything for you puddin'," Harley replied, jumping on him for a hug.

"Get off! We got to jet before the-

Sirens began wailing in the distance before he could finish his sentence.

"Dammit, come on Harv! Pick up the bags-

"But Mistah' J, don't you want to give bird boy his party?" Harley asked, innocently as she prodded Robin's body with her foot.

"Oh yes how I could forget, how rude of me," Joker smiled as he picked up Robin by his cape and began laughing, insanely.

OoOoOoOoOoO

"What happened here?" Batman asked, scaring James Gordon and the rest of his police team since he appeared out of nowhere once again.

"The Joker and Harley Quinn," Gordon responded, collecting himself. He thought by now he would have gotten used to Batman appearing out of thin air but his gag never got old.

"They robbed a pawn shop?"

"They're desperate for cash and they don't want to get caught," Gordon shrugged, putting his hands in his overcoat pockets. "Just the other day they robbed a seven eleven."

"Every criminal in Gotham must know that the Dark Knight doesn't usually stop convenient store robberies which makes it an easier get away for them," Officer Harvey Bullock chimed in. "You just like stopping big robberies, huh?"

Batman only glared at him as a response.

"Oh and we found some suspicious stuff at the crime scene," Gordon mentioned, motioning Batman to come outside into the alleyway where police officers were taking pictures of the scene.

"We found that they left two bags of jewelry behind," Gordon said, pointing at it. "They must have dropped since it looked like Robin came down to stop them." He then pointed at one of Robin's lasso birdarangs that lay next to the dumpsters.

"Robin's here?" Officer Bullock commented, rubbing his head. "I thought he was with the Titans."

Batman ignored him.

"It's pretty evident that Joker and Quinn got away," Gordon repeated then slurred. "But I don't know about Robin…if he got away or not…"

Batman scanned the crime scene in silence before he took out grapple gun and pointed it at the rooftops

"We'll look for him," Gordon offered, sympathetically. "I'll-

"I got this don't worry," Batman told Gordon before he disappeared among the skyscrapers. When he was safely out of ear's reach, he took out his communicator and called Alfred.

"Yes, Master Bruce?" Alfred's British accent voice answered.

"Is Dick there?"

"No sir, he arrived three hours ago and then went out patrolling and I haven't seen or heard from him since."

Batman was silent for a minute until he retorted, "I think he might of have been kidnapped by the Joker."

"Oh dear…are you sure?" Alfred asked, solicitously. "He could have left since he was in awful mood when he got here, did you make him come back home? He was so happy with the Titans, why would you-

"Nevermind that," Batman said over him. "I'm going to go search for him, there are some gangsters that may know where Joker's hideout is."

"Do you want me to call Barbara for help-

"No," Batman replied, curtly before hanging up and gliding off the building.

OoOoOoOoOoO

"Can I take his mask off?" Robin heard Harley Quinn whine as he regained consciousness. He instinctively tried to push Harley away when he felt her pick at the edge of his mask but found that he couldn't move.

Robin was bounded tightly to chair with his wrists tied to the armrests, ropes wrapped around his chest and arms and his ankles were also tied to the legs of the chair. And there was no way he could untie himself since they had taken his utility belt and gloves away.

"No Harv we'll save that moment when we also have the Bat," Joker said in a matter-of-fact voice from across the room. "Which will be soon heh-heh.."

Robin rolled his eyes before discovering he was in some run down warehouse and that Harley Quinn was sitting in his lap, still trying to peel his mask off.

"Get off me!" Robin growled at her as he tried head butting her but Harley jumped off before he could hit her.

"Mistah' grumpy, aren't we?" Harley scowled before she kicked him in the chest, making him fall back with the chair and all.

Robin held in a groan as he hit the floor but barked, loudly, "Let me go! You know you aren't going to get away with this Joker. You never do, you'll be back in Arkham in no time."

Robin couldn't hold in a groan this time when the Joker came over and abruptly grabbed him by the hair and pulled him up right. He then clutched his face in a hard grip, making Robin look into his crazy eyes.

"You know, little birdy you unfortunately have become exactly like the bats," Joker told him as he shook his head. "You used to say dumb little comebacks which I kind of miss now but now you're as serious as him and you know how much I hate serious people…"

Robin jerked his head back and bit down on his gloved-hand then hissed, "Is that a good enough comeback for you?"

The Joker backhanded him in the face so hard it knocked Robin over again onto his right side this time. "Not a routine I would go with since it might piss off the person you tell it to," Joker laughed, crazily as he began to repeatedly kick Robin in stomach.

Robin grunted with each kick but couldn't hold in yelp when he felt a few of his ribs break and then the kicks after that made the pain unbearable now.

The Joker stopped though when Harley came behind and slurred, sounding like she had done something bad, "Uh Mistah' J …"

"What?"

"I don't think we rob enough stuff, Mistah' J," Harley responded as she held up the bags of jewelry. "Most of this jewelry is fake….and the most expensive thing we stole is only about $5000 dollars!"

"What!" Joker screeched, loudly. "But I had two bags of mone-

He stopped and looked at Robin, realizing he had dropped those two bags and forgotten about them when Robin knocked him over in the alleyway.

"You little snot!" Joker growled, ferociously before jumping on top of Robin and punching him in every sensitive spot on his body. "You and that Bat are always ruining everything but this time there's no one to save you bird boy! And too bad you can't live up to your name and fly away either! Bye bye birdie! BAHAHAHA!" He then put his hands around Robin's throat and began to strangle him to death…

Robin's eyes rolled around his head as he choked and struggled to get a breath of air but his efforts were fruitlessly and was beginning to accept this was the end.

"No wait Mistah' J!" Harley unexpectedly yelled. "Bird boy could be worth money! A lot of criminals would pay big bucks to get their hands on him!"

Luckily, for Robin's sake the Joker did stop and thought for a second as he rubbed his pointy chin. Robin greedily sucked in air but after he caught his breath, the pain of his bruised body hit him like a freight train as he winced.

"Harley, that's actually a brilliant idea!" Joker howled, excitedly before jumping off Robin and grabbing Harley into an embrace. "We can have an auction on the brat and sell him off to the highest bidder! We could get millions from this!"

Harley Quinn squealed in delight from getting some much positive attention from her 'puddin' while she snuggled herself into his chest.

The Joker then began spinning her around like they were dancing while he told her, seductively, "Oh my little minx, I knew I had you around for some other reason then-

Robin was glad Harley began giggling uncontrollably really loudly since he didn't want to hear the rest of Joker's sentence.

"Oh puddin' I love you so much!" Harley cried out as she wrapped her legs around him and littered him with kisses, leaving black lipstick marks all over him.

"Oh I know you do," Joker retorted back, smiling as he gripped her face. He then roughly pushed her against a nearby table and ripped off the bottom part of her costume.

"Oh god, please kill me! Kill me instead! I beg of you!" Robin abruptly cried out when he realized they were going to have sex right in front of him.

The Joker and Harley Quinn both let out long laugh at his request before they continued...
