"Never mind Cap, just meet me in New York." Robin growled as he landed a bit aways from Robinson Park.

Shinobi stood on the tatami mats trying to clear his mind by doing kata's waiting for anyone to show up.

The Robinson Park Teleporter was closer than the one at the cave. The was the one used by Huntress during her time with the JLA.
In the blink of an eye, Robin was in New York City. He wiped away the blood that was still on his face from his fight with the demon earlier and awaited CM3.

With the speed of Mercury CM3 arrives in NY in a heartbeat. "Yo, 'Rob' Can you be a little more specific. NY is pretty big, you know..."

"We have a teleporter you know..." Robin sighed. "Follow me," Robin said firing a jumpline towards the dojo.
Not wanting to attract unwanted attention, Robin and CM3 entered through the back of the dojo.
"Gentelmen, sorry for keeping you waiting." Robin said moving into the room. Shinobi's grandfather gave a slight jump in suprise.

"Hm i wasnt expecting someone with your skill. Its rare to find a person that truely understands stealth these days." He said turning around. "Please follow me." He led the three titans to a room with a bamboo wall and slide it open to show an actual classic japanese tea room he soon was kneeling down and preforming the Tea ritual. "So then i assume we all have much to discuss."
"Yeah." Shinobi said. "Like what the best course of action is. His grandfather tossed him a thick book entitled 'the art of war' (im actually reading this)
"Read that then decide."

Enoki picked up one of the bamboo stirring rods and hit cm3 over the head with it. "First of all the book is chinese. Second of all the greatest generals in history were very studyius of this...it was written more then two thousand years ago but the plans and ideas still hold true today." He says irritably. "You should listen to your elders. we tend to know things."

(I haven't read it yet. My father says I should, but I'm lazy like that.)
"Agreed," Robin then noticed the book. "Art of War." Tim had read that book when he was 10 years old, after he heard that Bruce Wayne had bought a first edition.
"I fear that might not help so much, sir. We're not facing miliatry men with proper training. As I understand it the Cobras are nothing more than punks with a big bank role going for them and a great amount of weapons. They won't think so much in logic and skill, but in their might and primal instincts."

"Okay,okay sorry. Gee, I'm just sayin' that usually when hell is breaking loose we don't have time to look for a solution in a book..."

"Not so true," Robin told CM3. "Often by learning from the actions of others, can we win. The Art of War is considered one of the greatest books on battle ever written."

"True they might fight with a sledgehammer. But a true tactician can easily defeat a much larger better equipped army with better tactics then that of the enemy."
"Yeah then how come it doesn work for me?"
"Because you fight like you live and play shogi and go. Comletely reactional. you need to look 100 moves ahead and make your plan."

Robin fought a smile. The guy sounded like a cross of Batman and Alfred.
"Very true, sir." Robin thought for a moment. "You said that the Cobra's had stolen the weapons from Frey correct?"

"Yes but oddly Frey Unlimited hasnt reported them missing or stolen. Almost as though they were allowing it to happen. But then again from what i understand from the files they were experimental prototypes for the military to use in the event of a metahuman threat. Those things could do to superman what a normal gun would do to you and me." He said gravely as he poured an odd looking tea into a small china cup for each person.
Shinobi gave cm3 a look that screamed. 'one joke and you'll be a smear on the wall.'
