"Brother Blood" I snarled his name the moment I saw him walk in with Mother Mayhem beside him.

Slade and Terra stood aside as they spectated his entrance.

"Place reminds me of my parents' church. Bunch of crazies"

Honestly Terra, nobody gives a shit.

Okay we get it. The church is creepy and weird. But, you don't have to comment about it every second.

"Insolent trash" Mayhem whispered over her shoulder.

I tried my best not to snort, but I failed.

A smile crept up to my face.

"Who you calling trash?!" She shouted and started moving the ground.

"Keep it together" Slade muttered with a frown showing through his mask.

"Let's be civil to our guests" Blood turned to look at Deathstroke,

"Our business is not yet complete"

He walked closer to him with his hands behind his back before stopping.

Only a few steps away from him.

"Sure it is" Deathstroke countered while he walked closer,

"You wanted the Titans, and here they are" he motioned his hand towards us.

"Not all of them" Blood replied.

Even from my perspective, where I could only see his back, I knew he had a stern expression.

"Not Nightwing" he mentioned glancing to the empty spot on my right.

That's true.

Dick isn't here. Where is he?

But that's good news right?

If he's not here, then they can't do anything.

"It ruins the machine's symmetry" he added.

Hah! I fucking knew it. They really can't do anything.

I started smirking before getting myself comfortable again because my arms were starting to get numb from being like this.

Seriously, it's probably been hours that I was like this.

"We agreed some deaths might be unavoidable. Things happen" Deathstroke replied.

Wait what? No.

I refuse to believe that Dick is dead. He can't be!

H-He's freaking Nightwing!

"I accept that" Blood began,

"But I told you even in death there is life to be drawn"

By now, I felt my body getting tired.

Coming back from the fair and not getting some rest, had me exhausted.

"Where is the body? Unless you have a body, you're one short. Therefore, our contract is not complete"

But this conversation was so intense, that I have to force myself awake.

"Happily, there is still a path to the salvation of our deal. Don't you agree?"

That sudden mood change of Brother Blood kind of creeped me out.

What was he thinking now?

I watched as Slade slowly nodded once, his eyes narrowed.

"Excellent" Blood turned to signal the woman next to him,

"Mayhem"

She took a gun out and pointed it at Terra.
