As I slowly came to, I felt an immense pressure on my back, as well as a Batarang in my shoulder; couldn't have been either Dick or Tim, since they were engaged in useless bird banter. It could only be Bruce.
I felt him start working on my hands and heard sirens in the distance. There was no damned way I was going to allow myself to be taken! I wrapped my legs around Bruce's torso and was barely able to fling him forward and off my back.
Getting back to my feet, I unwrapped my hands, tossed the Batarang to the ground, pulled out a grapple from my pocket and fired it upward toward the closest building.
"Sorry, Bruce..." I announced, just loud enough for him, Tim and Dick to hear. "...but, I don't think I'd look that good in prison stripes! 'Sides, being in jail really does something to your mind! Catch you three on the flip side!"
Within seconds, I was on the rooftop and out of sight. True, I had underestimated their teamwork now, but I would be back...!
