Soon Laura learned about the problems the Nightwing team or Dick was dealing with, they were dealing with Krolotean invaders.

The patrol missions were very objective with no real action, it was all very cautious, so Laura was in her comfort zone, in her black uniform, and the band of black makeup on her face, she still didn't understand how people didn't recognize Conner in the street.

So she was sent to a ball in Gotham, the team had the information that a Krolotean might be infiltrating that night, a dance hosted by Wayne enterprises. She stumbled out of the sealing of building close by with Tim Drake, the newest Robin who was a boy from Gothan, while Wondergirl along with Batgirl infiltrated the ball.

"Calm down." - Tim on the radio

" So? What do you think will happen? "- Laura asked

"I don't know but hey, what's new on the team?" - Tim

"It's not that much ." - Laura

"What?" - Tim asked and looked surprised

"The missions are kind of ... boring ." - Laura

"What do you mean?"- Tim

"To remind me of the less hectic mission I had before falling into that vortex, was when a girl named Polaris lifted the staple center in the air and threw the whole structure into the Californian Sea with everyone in." - Laura

"Everyone who?" - Tim

"Me and a few other friends. They aren't very close to me, but ... they were what I had. "- Laura

"You can count on us you now." - Tim said putting his hand on Laura's shoulder

"Thank you, Robin." - Laura

"Call me Tim. "- He whispered

She was going to give him some witty remark about not using his name out on the field, but before he could say anything they heard shots coming from inside the building, Tim used the binoculars but Laura could already see a man with a clown makeup at the window.

"Joker." - Tim said

"Tim stay here, I'll go ."- Laura said

" What? I'm the team leader. "- Tim

"Tim, trust me, call the Batman, and say the Joker is here." - Laura

Laura took a little distance, and she ran up to the parapet jumping, putting out her claws, she hooked them to the wall and climbed up to the roof and then entered thought the bathroom window.

She came in through the window and sneaked inside, she turned off the communicator, so she could concentrate, so she saw the Joker holding, a woman out the window and Batman already in front of him.

"Let her go." - Batman

"Such a poor choice of words." - The Joker said and released the girl

Laura saw her chance. The world stopped for a second as she ran toward the window, she pushed the Joker as if he were a normal a person, and jumped out of the window, she was able to grab the girl and effaced her claw in the window, abruptly stopping their fall.

"Your safe ." - Laura

Laura said to the girl to grip her firmly so she pushed and slammed her feet against the windows. And then the window popped. Laura and the girl fell into an empty office, so Laura went to the elevator and saw that she was on the 9th floor. Then she turned on the communicator.

"Robin are you there ?" - Laura

"Did you see what you just did? "- Tim

"Yes, Robin I jumped out of a window. I'm on the move and I'm with the victim. "- Laura

"The police already arrived you can go downstairs." - Tim

"See you, Robin." - Laura
