I am sorry for all the grammar mistakes in this part, I am kind of in a rush. Please excuse my hastiness.
3 minutes later.....
Superman and the Titans stood over the ruins of Wayne Manor.
Superman shook his head. "Nothing can stop it now." He turned away and headed toward the back of the manor.
Roy grabbed his shoulder. "Wait. They're still in there. We have to help them." All the other Titans nodded in agreement.
Superman again shook his head at them. "They're fine. They are all safe. Nothing can harm them until their destiny is fulfilled."
Donna walked over to Roy's side and took his hand to comfort her friend. "But what about the others, they were still inside when the earthquake hit."
Superman gave them a tired look. "EVERYONE IS FINE. You can thank yourselves for what just happened. If you followed my orders, we wouldn't be in this mess" he said. He nodded towards the house. "It's up to them now."
Back inside the manor.
Dick stirred lightly. He opened his eyes and saw nothing. The area was completely pitch black. Darkness surrounded him and the entire manor. He sat up. He placed his hand along the floor to sense his surroundings.
"Ok, keep cool. Freaking out will not help anyone. If only I could find a flashlight." Dick thought to himself.
Something furry suddenly brushed up against his side. He jumped up, startled by the movement. "Who's there? Show yourself!"
Only silence greeted him.
Suddenly, it appeared again, this time whimpering. Dick gave a sigh of relief. "Lady, come over here." He knelt down and ran his hand over the cocker spaniel's fur. He hugged it. "You don't know how glad I am to see you."
The only answer he got was a lick on the cheek. Lady gave a happy bark and ran off.
Dick sat there confused for a minute. "How does she expect me to follow her, when I can't see where I am going and if I am following her?" Dick thought.
He heard another happy bark and her little footsteps coming toward him. Lady trotted over to him with something in her mouth. She nudged his leg with it. Dick knelt down and held out his hand. "What's that? What do you have for me?"
Lady dropped a flashlight into his outstrecthed hand. Dick chuckled and patted her head. "Tim is right, we should change your name to Bathound."
Lady then gave an indignant little sniff and tossed her ears.
Suddenly, a voice came out of the darkness. "I think you offended her.
"Barbara? Where are you? I can hardly see Lady, let alone you." Dick said trying to scan the area.
"This coming from the guy with a flashlight in HIS hand."
Lady snickered. Dick turned on the flashlight and scanned the room, but the was still no sign of her. "Where are you?"
Barbara suddenly appeared behind him. "I am right here." Dick jumped and whirled around to face her.
"Don't do that. What were you thinking? What if I was someonel else? You could have gotten yourself hurt? Are you ok? Are you hurt?" He aksed pulling her towards him. He wrapped his arms around her and held her tight.
Barbara surprised at his passionate outburst, hugged him back. "I am fine, just a little cut up and bruised." She pulled away from his embrace and tipped his face up to check his injuries.
In another room.......
"Bruce, can we rest at least for ONE second? My feet are killing me." Timothy whined as he followed Bruce and Selina to room to room. Even though, he was covered in soot and some blood, his face was chalk white. He was relunctant to complain, but he felt horrible.
Bruce stopped walking and waited for him to catch up. "We can't stop, we have to find Dick and Barbara before Steel does." He continued to walk ahead. His mouth was set in a determined line.
Selina noticing how unwell Timothy looked, decided it was time to do something drastic for the boy's sake.
"Bruce, there is something I have to tell you."
"Not now, Selina."
"It's VERY important. We have to stop walking and talk about it right NOW."
"Nothing can be more important than saving Dick's life. I have failed him many times before. And I will NOT fail him again."
"This is MORE imortant."
Bruce and Timothy stopped in their tracks. If Timothy wasn't so tired, his mouth would have dropped open at Selina's gall to rebuke his statement.
"I am preganant."
