"Shh, it's okay, Dickie-bird, everything's going to be okay," they promised him, holding Dick closer until he finally fell asleep.

Almost a week later, Roy and Wally found themselves at the manor once again. They had gone to visit Dick for a few hours every day since they had taken the Joker in. He wasn't exactly himself yet, but was doing better. His nightmares were going down more, and if he woke up in the middle of the night from one, he was almost always able to go back to sleep, sometimes it just took a little encouragement. Dick was still feeling pretty exhausted as he recovered, but his energy was coming back, and the only thing holding him back were the overprotective people he had come to know as family around him, and then of course, his healing injuries. His injuries were healing nicely, and the infections were almost completely gone. Dick was just feeling a little weaker than usual, but as the bird started to feel better, more of his energy returned. And not being able to move properly was never a good mix for him.

It was a Saturday, and Richard, Wally, and Roy were all gathered in the media room playing video games. Or, they were. Dick was starting to feel tired again, and had fallen asleep, controller in hand. They knew he was looking tired, and had suggested going back up to his room and hang out there, like they had suggested from the beginning. But when they offered to hang out in his room, Dick explained that he needed to move around and didn't want to stay in one place for the next few weeks. So, Dick lay on the couch, and Roy and Wally moved to the floor, and muted the game.

Dick's mobility, as it was improving, still wasn't exactly up to his normal ninja capabilities yet. He would feel really nauseas and dizzy if he tried to walk more than a few steps, or even sit up too quickly. Then that on top of the burns, didn't work well with trying to walk. So, he agreed to use a wheelchair for a while until he got his strength back. He might have been able to handle using crutches for support, but with a fracture shoulder on one side, and a fractured wrist on the other, that was almost impossible at this point. The fact that he even agreed to it just showed how exhausted the kid really was, but being kidnapped and tortured for a few weeks can do that to you, so they didn't question it.

Even though Dick still wasn't feeling back to normal, his personality was coming back, and he was bugging them about when he could go visit the team. His argument was that he needed to get out of the house before he turned into a vegetable, and the team hadn't seen him since he left the med-bay. Roy and Wally had helped convince Bruce and Alfred that he would be fine to go to the cave for a few hours, and the two agreed he could go once his fever went down some more. His fever had been going down, but then would spike again. But, it seemed to be staying down, so they agreed he could go today, even though he was going to go to the circus with Bruce that evening. The argument there was that if he was up to going to the circus, he could go to the mountain for a bit before. And then the face Dick used on Bruce persuaded him, too.

"Hey guys?" Dick was up.

"What's up, Dick?" Wally asked, pausing the game.

"Need something?" Roy questioned.

"No, I'm fine, definitely feeling the aster," he said, giving them a smile." I was wondering what time it was?"

"Um, one twenty-seven." Roy answered pulling out his phone." They're aren't expecting us until two, so you can go back to sleep for a bit,"

"That's okay, I'm not tired," Dick answered, trying to push himself into a sitting position, but was still having a little trouble.

"Here," Wally offered, moving closer to support Dick.

"You don't have to do that, you know. I can handle myself," that was another thing that was coming back; Dick not wanting everyone's help all the time. It was rare that Dick would admit he actually needed help. Usually, if he needed help he would hint at it, instead of just asking directly. If he asked directly, everyone would give him worried glances. Although he couldn't really blame them, because it was only when he really needed help that he would ask.

"We know, Dick, but we just want to make sure you're okay," Roy put in.

"I'm fine, you don't have to treat me like a little kid, it's not like this is the first time I've been hurt," Robin replied.

"Well, you're welcome," Wally said, he knew Dick was just getting annoyed that he couldn't really do that much on his own at the moment, and wanted to at least try to do things on his own. They had all made a silent agreement to let him do that, until he had been going at it too long, or it looked like it would cause him pain. It had been working so far, and they could tell that the kid even appreciated it sometimes, since he refused to ask for help unless it was completely necessary.

"Thanks," he mumbled, making smirks rise to both Wally and Roy's lips for a second before continuing.

"So, what do you want to do now?" Roy asked him, but he already knew that he would refuse to go back to sleep.

"Can we head to the cave?" he asked." No offense, but it's getting a bit boring around here,"

"I'm sure they won't mind," Wally started," everyone has been asking about you,"

"They really do care," Dick teased, receiving a light, playful punch from Wally.

"I'll get your wheelchair," Wally offered, walking over to where they had folded it up in the corner.

"Fine, but you're not driving it," Roy announced.

"But why not?" Wally demanded.

"I believe it is because lately you have been suggesting the idea of using the wheelchair as a racecar," Alfred said, walking into the room, making sure that Wally and Dick hadn't form another obstacle course to try to maneuver though. Luckily, these attempts had been stopped before they could be tested out.

"It was just an idea, and it's not like it was against his will or anything," Wally mumbled, as Dick laughed at the glares he was receiving.

"Don't worry, I won't let these to do anything fatal when I'm around," Roy assured.

"Can we go now?" Dick asked impatiently.

"Yeah, let's go before Wally gets another deadly idea," Roy said, helping Dick into the chair and heading towards the door.

"Be careful," Alfred called from the door as the group headed towards the zeta tubes." Master Bruce will be around in a few hours to take you to the circus,"

"Okay, see you later, Alfred," Dick waved, and the three headed off to the cave.

Kaldur, Conner, Megan, and Artemis all sat in the main room. Megan had a cake that was cooling on the counter, and they had just been flipping through televisions stations looking for something do to until Robin got there. Robin was supposed to come by the mountain this afternoon for a few hours, and the team couldn't wait to see their little bird. The last time they saw him, he was in a hospital bed barely able to keep his eyes open and hold a conversation for longer than a few minutes. And then on the tape. They hadn't talked about the tape to Robin, but they talked about it with each other, and had decided it would be best to not say anything unless Robin brought it up. They would just be there for him like the good friends they were.

"Recognizing: Robin B01, Kid Flash B03, Red Arrow B06," the computer announced, causing everyone to stand up and walk toward the zeta tubes, eager to see Robin.

The team was really eager to see Robin. He had only been home for a week, and they hadn't been able to see him. They knew Robin usually bounced back, but this time, it wasn't just a physical injury. He truly believed they had given up on him; that Batman had given up on him. And then after they saw the tape, they realized how bad it was, and they didn't even see the whole thing. It was torture enough to watch it and know it had happened to their little bird, but the kid actually had to experience it himself.

When he was still in the hospital, Robin was having trouble holding conversations for more than a few minutes. Even if he could stay awake, he couldn't really put himself into it or pay attention very much. They remembered h had been in a lot of pain, and they knew why. His body was covered in burns, bruises, and scrapes. His shoulder and wrist had been fractured, his body wrapped in bandages, covering burns and freshly stitched wounds. He had a bandage wrapped around his head, with a concussion to go with it. He was pretty weak and tired from being practically beaten to death. He couldn't move very well because of the beating he took, and with the broken ribs, it was difficult for him to breathe, and it was coming out in rasps. Robin was sore, and a few times he actually asked for more painkillers. He was pretty pale from the blood loss, too. That, and he had conducted some infections, making his body even more vulnerable. All of that, and then how shaken the poor kid was from all the time he spent in the hands of the Joker.

Knowing all of this, they were still weren't sure what they were expecting. They knew that his physical state should've improved, but they also knew it had taken a lot of damage. And then they were nervous about his mental state. He had been pretty shaken up about the whole event, and they had heard him screaming in his sleep a few times, only to wake up trying to hide his tears and ask for Batman, even if the man in question was already there. They had all agreed not to talk about the tape unless Robin asked them to, that was something they know they shouldn't have watched. Robin would talk about when he was ready, and even then, it might just be something just between him and Batman. But it had been a week, his usual demeanor would've returned, right?

They wanted to truly believe that their bird would come in laughing and smiling, planning to pull a prank on them or something. Maybe even beat them all at a sparring match. But these were just hopes, the team knew it wasn't that easy. They knew change like that would take a while, even after he healed physically, the mental trauma behind it would take time. But for now, they were just happy that Robin was recovering, and they would get to see him again, hopefully with some improvement.

"Robin!" the team's voice rang through the cave as they came into view. They all picked up their pace towards the three standing there. Well, almost standing. Robin was in a wheelchair, and it looked like Roy had pushed him here along with Wally.

"Hey guys," Robin greeted, flashing them a small smile. He noticed them looking from him and then to his wheelchair. His gaze fell to the floor quickly, and then back up to the team." Like my new ride?"

"Why are you in a wheelchair?" Conner asked. Robin bit his lip, he didn't really know how to explain to them that the great Boy Wonder couldn't find the strength to walk, let alone stand.

Roy quickly caught up on this, and answered for him," Robin's still recovering, and it would be better for his recovery if he didn't put any unneeded stress on his body right now,"

"That is a wise decision," Kaldur agreed, as the rest nodded in understanding.

"That, and it's really fun to race with," Wally joked.

"Don't tell me you actually used Robin as your own personal race car," Artemis accused.

"Well, when you put it like that, it sounds bad, but it was fun, right Rob," Wally said quickly.

"Yeah, until you guys crashed," Roy put in before Robin could answer, and then glaring at Wally.

"Why am I not surprised?" Artemis responded, using it as another excuse to give Wally a glare.

"You crashed Robin?" Megan asked.

"Sort of, but it wasn't a problem, I caught him and he's fine, sugar cheeks," Wally started." Besides, that's not the point, the fact is that we can use this to our advantage, and the chair turns way easier now,"

"I think it would be best to wait a while longer until you started trying to race with Robin," Kaldur pointed out.

"You guys are no fun," Wally mumbled, making Robin let out a small laugh.

"Come on," Megan called, waving her hand for them to follow," We made a cake to welcome you back, hope you're hungry."

"Cake? What kind of cake?" Wally asked excitedly.

"We decided on a red velvet cake with cream cheeses frosting," she said, leading them towards the main room.

When Roy wheeled Robin into the main room, there was a cake on the coffee table. They had spelled out "Welcome Back Robin!" in the middle of the cake, with what looked like red cream cheese frosting on top of the regular cream cheese frosting.

"It looks good," Robin said, and it did look good, but Robin could barely keep down anything more than the soup Alfred was giving him. Robin was still taking a bunch of pain medication, which would make him feel nauseas a lot.

"Everyone helped make it, I hope you like it." Megan started." What size piece do you want?"

"I'm sure it's fine, as long as there's not soup or medicine smuggled into the cake," Robin joked, causing the team to let out a few laughs. They were happy to see him joking around again, he seemed so quiet when he first came in, which wasn't very usual for the bird." I'll just have small piece,"

"Want to move to the couch?" Artemis asked him, she knew that sitting on a couch would be more comfortable than sitting in a wheelchair.

"Sure, thanks," he said, and Artemis carefully picked him up out of the chair and gently set him down on the couch. As she did this, his face tightened a little from the pain the slight and careful movement had caused him. He was trying to focus on not letting a groan to pass his lips. No matter how careful people were around him, movement till hurt as his body moved into a different position. It wasn't as bad as it was when he first woke up, but it was still annoying.

"Are you okay?" Artemis asked Robin nervously, noticing the change in his face, she hadn't meant to hurt him. And now everyone was looking at him, even Wally and Roy, who were mostly used to it by now.

"It's fine, don't worry about it," Robin waved it off." Still just a little sore, but it passes fast enough now,"

"What do you mean?" Did it not use to go away?" Conner questioned.

"Well, when I first woke up, it hurt to roll over and sit up, stuff like that," Robin started," Movement still hurts, but not as much as it did,"

"That's good, right?" Megan added, handing him a piece of cake once he seemed to relax into the couch a little more, and receiving a quick thanks from Robin.

"Yeah, it's gotten better, I just can't wait until I can start flipping through the air again. It gets kind of boring sitting around all day not being able to do anything," Robin said. That was one of the harder things for him when he got hurt, no matter how much pain he might be in, he still itched to fly through the air again.

"I'm sure you'll be back here training with us again soon," Megan reassured, as she handed out pieces of cake to everyone else. Robin started taking a few bites of the cake, trying not to agitate his shoulder in doing so.

"What have you guys been up to since I've been gone?" Robin questioned, he took a few more bites of the delicious treat, before deciding he was done and set it aside." Has it been pretty outeresting without me around?"

When he was met with mostly silence and a few questioning looks, he continued," It's the opposite of interesting, instead of things being stimulating, they're boring,"

"Of course it is, Robin," Roy said, slightly rolling his eyes at the boy. Although, they were all glad to see his quirks coming back.

They talked about a few other things as they finished their cake, like how outeresting it had been at the cave without the bird, and how worried they had been. They also mentioned how they had convinced Black Canary to go easy on them during training, and even cut it short. The team hadn't had any missions, so they've just been hanging around the mountain, and Wally had tried to get everyone to play video games with him, since he couldn't do it with Rob. He had successfully gotten everyone to play at least one game with him, just so that he would shut up. Conner actually kind of liked it, and played a few more times. Artemis was better than Wally had expected, and had demanded a rematch.

"What about you, Robin?" Artemis asked him, ignoring Wally's excuses as to why she had once, and also demanded a rematch for the millionth time.

"Sleeping, and beating Wally at video games," Robin said, smirk crossing his lips.

"You do not win every time," Wally defended.

"Oh yeah, I forgot you one once when I feel asleep during a game," Robin teased.

"Roy, you were there, didn't I win a few times?" Wally said, desperately looking for back up.

"I'm actually not even too sure you won when he fell asleep," Roy pondered, causing Wally to stare at him and the team to break out into laughter.

"Recognizing: Batman B02," the computer announced, causing the team to look towards the hallway, expecting a bat to walk through any minute. Batman entered the room, giving a nod of greeting, and walking toward Robin.

"Hey, Batman," Robin greeted giving him a smile, happy to see the man who he hadn't seen at all today.

"How are you feeling?" Batman asked him, giving him a look that told him not to even try lying to him.

"Fine, a little sore, but I can take some more painkillers soon," Robin replied, and Batman gave him a nod before continuing.

"I just have to go check some files, and then we can go," Batman said to him, and he nodded before Batman walked out. Robin couldn't wait to go see everyone at the circus.

"I will go get your chair," Kaldur offered, walking over to where the chair was folded and leaned against the wall, and then rolling it back over.

"Aww," Wally started, a realization coming to him." We never got to make our racetrack, we could have used obstacles and everything,"

"Wally!" Artemis yelled, slapping him in the back of the head.

"What? Who knows how much longer he'll even be in the chair," Wally defended.

"We can always take some form the medical room and use those," Robin started, thinking it over." And if we wait until I have more mobility back, we can make it even more of a challenge,"

"Yeah, we could get some ramps and make some jumps, who else wants to go against us? We could have a few teams and time each other," Wally said, and Robin nodded in agreement, and then the two looked towards the team for their agreement.

"Once Robin is better, we can think about it," Kaldur said. It did sound like fun, but a little irresponsible, especially if Robin was still recovering.

"I don't think I've ever done something like that, it sounds like fun," Megan commented, and a few more comments of approval came in.

"Wait, if it's a race, wouldn't Wally automatically win?" Artemis asked, after the excitement of the idea calmed down.

"Wally won't be using it, unless he wants to put Robin back in a wheelchair, while also getting in one himself," Roy warned, he had decided that he would referee if they actually decided to go along with it, to make sure that his little brother didn't get hurt, and maybe have a go at it himself…

"Sounds fair, where would we put it?" Conner asked, and they all started to think about where this course of theirs would go. They all liked the idea, it would just be a step up from their usual agility courses they did for training, only this time you would have to push someone half way through it, and then switch. That counts as a team building, training activity, right?

"Where would you put what?" Batman asked, walking into the room.

"Um, a ball-pit," Wally answered, after a short pause of the team not knowing what to say.

"A ball-pit?" Batman questioned, cocking an unseen eyebrow underneath his cowl.

"Y-yeah, and a rope to swing across it," Wally added. He didn't know why he kept talking, but he had to admit, that would make a nice addition to the agility course.

"Really? That's all you could come up with?" Artemis whispered to him, as Batman shook his head at the all but too obvious lie, and went to help Robin into his wheelchair.

"I panicked, you try lying to the bat," he whispered back.

"I'll let it go for now, but don't make any renovations to the cave when I'm gone," Batman warned, giving them a short bat-glare.

"Yes sir," Wally said quickly, as Roy, Artemis, and Robin all rolled their eyes at Wally.

"Bye Robin," Roy said." I have to go on patrol later tonight, so I'll see you later,"

"Okay," Robin waved, and Roy headed for the zeta tubes, waving a goodbye to the others.

"It was nice seeing you, Robin," Megan said, standing up, and walking over to where he and Batman waited for them to say their goodbyes.

"You too, Miss M," Robin said.

"Yes, it was good to see you again, we were all pleased you were able to come" Kaldur told him, remembering the eagerness of the time earlier that morning, and a little the day before when they found out Robin would be coming.

"Thanks, I'm glad I got to come, too," the boy responded.

"Get better soon, I don't know if I can take Wally much longer," Artemis said, receiving a "hey!" from Wally.

"I'll try," Robin smirked.

"Bye Robin," Conner waved.

"See you later," Robin said.

"Later, dude," Wally started," and next time we play video games, I won't go easy on you,"

"Of course you won't," Robin replied sarcastically.

"Ready to go?" Batman asked, when Robin nodded, he kicked up the lock, and started rolling him towards the garage where the Batmobile was parked. He couldn't exactly walk out of a telephone booth as Batman with Robin in his civvies and in a wheelchair, it would look too suspicious.

When he was out of ear shot from the team, he leaned over Robin and asked," Sure you're up to going tonight? We could go to the show next week,"

"No, I want to go tonight, I feel fine," Robin said, although, some painkillers wouldn't hurt.

"Of course you do," he said, placing him in the car, and then handing him his next dose of medicine, receiving a nod quick thanks.

"So, what were you really talking about?" he asked as they drove towards the Batcave.

"Oh, that," Robin started, thinking over whether or not it would really be worth it to lie to Batman. In the end, he decided against it," Wally has this idea of taking some wheelchairs and building an agility course. But, I do think he was actually thinking about adding the ball-pit to it by the look on his face,"

"And did you agree with him?" Batman asked.

"Wouldn't even think of it until I was recovered," Robin answered.

"Why do I find that so hard to believe?" Batman wondered out loud, and Robin just let out a laugh, and a small smile crossed the Bats lips. He put a hand over and ruffled the boy's ebony hair, so happy his son was back home.

A few hours later, Dick Grayson and Bruce Wayne sat in the stands of a circus, eagerly waiting for the show to begin. They had gotten dinner from one of Dick's favorite restaurants, and then came here right after. The two were also going to go backstage after the show so that Dick could see everyone. When the stage lights lit up, a grin let itself show on the young boy's face, then the music started playing and the ringmaster walked out.

"Ladies and Gentlemen! Welcome to Haley's Travelling Circus!"
