Now Falcon was angry. Not at him, but herself. She should have known that Tim wouldn't believe her without proof. If he had told her the same thing, she would have though it was some sick joke as well. "No." Rachael turned so her back was opposite of his and in the direction the Taxi cab had went. "YOU have a job to do. I have a cab to catch." Falcon walked to the edge of her side of the roof , getting ready to jump off and find the Taxi with the tag number she had been able to catch a glimpse of with her highly sensitive contacts, but hesitated slightly. Waiting for Tim to decide whether or not to believe her.

Robin looked at Rachel with pained eyes. She hesitated from moving.
"Wait," he told her. It was no longer Robin talking. It was Tim.
"Let's go..." He said firing his own D-cell line. He could only hope that this wasn't a hoax.
******Meanwhile************
Oracle sat in her lair looking over all the flight records and hotel records and anything that told her about new visitors in Gotham.
So far they had been fruitless. There were hundreds of names, but no one using Richard Grayson or any of his undercover alias...
His traveling companion though was another story...
Name: DR. LORNA GELLAR Occupation: S.T.A.R. LABS MEDICAL TECHNICIAN
Soon Oracle hacked her way into the Doctor's files. Apparently Gellar had been one of the Medical officers who did clean up after the Dominion Battle. They had found only one survivor in the lower levels. A "John Doe" Everything about the man matched that of Dick Grayson. Except the man had no memory. Currently the Doctor and Doe were currently in Gotham in an attempt to revive his memories. Currently at the Gotham Arms hotel.
"Oracle to Robin and Falcon. This is a Priotity One Message! I repeat Robin and Falcon report!"

"I've got a match on that taxi you saw," Barbara explained. "A John Doe and Dr. Lorna Gellar checked into the Gotham Arms earlier today. I want you to check it out... I think it might really be...." her voice trailed off. She hadn't wanted Batman invovled yet. Maybe it was a mistake. A horrible coincedence. Maybe Dick Grayson really was dead. But she couldn't rest until she was sure.
Robin turned to Rachel and looked at first shocked and then ashamed. "We're on our way Oracle," he replied. He met Rachel's eyes and bowed his head. "I'm sorry."

"S'all right." Rachael said,letting her southern heritage show slightly, bowed her head down as well. "I doubt that I would believe me either. Rachael smiled slightly. "He's alive." She felt so relieved. HE WASN'T DEAD!

'John Doe' continued to stare out over the Gotham skyline and suddenly had the greatest urge to jump out the window. Not for any suicidal reason, but... Actually he didn't know why...
'John' moved over to the bed and took off his clothes before shutting off the light and crawling into bed. He never noticed the two shapes from before moving towards his window.

As Robin and Falcon swung closer towards the Gotham Towers Inn. Robin hadn't felt this nervous in years. He was worried that Rachel had only seen what she wanted to see.
"Oracle," Robin said into his com. "Can you give us a room number?"
"Second window from the right on the 83rd floor," came the masked sythetic voice. But Barbara's own nervousness and worries were clear. "And don't worry about Bruce. I already told him you've been held up."
The pair of teens landed on the balconey of said window. Robin froze in his tracks and met Falcon's own eyes.
"Here we go..." his voice was full of worry.

<<I'm sacrificing my lunch to be here in the library on the SLOWEST computer in the world.>> "Yeah. Here we go." Falcon said, equaly worried. She hoped she had made the entire thing up in her mind. She picked the balcony door's lock and slowly turned the knob. The door opened without so much as a squeak and they entered.

>>LOL same here.
Robin turned on his starlight lenses so he could better see in the darkened room. The owner's bag was still next to the door and had been untouched. Meaning the owner hadn't unpacked.
Turning to face the bed, he found himself looking down at the sleeping form of Dick Grayson.
***********************************
'John' had barely dozed off when he suddenly felt a rush of cold wind enter his room. He at first paid it no mind, until he heard the soft foot steps. Opening his eyes slightly he saw two dark shapes moving towards him.
Quickly 'John' rolled off of the bed and into a defensive stance. Although he didn't know what he was doing he still felt that this was the proper stance.
"Who the HELL are you and what are you doing in my room?" he demanded from pair.

"Oh my gosh!" Falcons eyes widened "It IS you!" Rachael noticed his defensive stance and held up both arms to her shoulders to show that she was unarmed. "Don't worry. We're your friends...family. We're not here to fight." Rachael took a step forward. Oracle had warned both her and Robin that Dick might have amnesia. "Do you remember us?"

'John' step away from the pair. "I don't know who the hell you people are-"
"But Nightwing-"Robin said trying to calm him down.
"GET OUT OF HERE!" he shouted taking a swing at Robin. While Robin could tell that Nightwing still had the skills, it was as if he didn't know how to use them properly.
Robin was able to use his opponent's momentum against him, and soon had him pinned on the floor. It was the first time he had taken Dick Grayson down, but he didn't feel good about it.
"GET OFF OF ME!" he shouted.
"Nightwing..." Robin said pleading looking at Rachel. At that moment the door burst open and Dr. Gellar came rushing in.
"John, what-? What's going on here?!"
