*A little bit of JayDick ahead*

Submerged in ocean water the three youngest brothers wait. They waited for any sign of a body falling through the thick white clouds. Jason had found a loose piece of wood and was using that to support his two younger brothers. A few moments of silence past until Tim pointed into the sky.

"There! Here he comes!" He yelled and the other two looked to see indeed their older brother falling towards the ocean's surface.

There was a splash as the body collided with the water. Jason quickly swam to the spot where the slash had accrued. He dove down under the deep blue liquid in search of his older brother. He saw a blurry figure swimming up to the surface and went up with it. Once up, he heard coughs and gagging like noises.

"Dick! Dick, you ok?"  He said while whipping the water out of his vision. Once he could see, he looked in front of him to see his eldest brother trying his best to tread water and not throw up. It was then he noticed the big gash that was somehow created from Dick's cheek to ribs.

"What-Dick..." Mumbled Jason

"Later...wheres...others." His words were spread out as he tried to regain himself

Jason helped Dick as best he could and lead him to Tim and Damian.

"Dick you're ok!" Tim smiled

Dick only nodded at the ebony. Eyeing the wood he quickly made his way to it and pulled himself up so that he was laying in the middle.

"Thank..God" He breathed and shut his eyes taking in extream amounts of air into his lungs

Though he didn't want to admit it, the young man's worst fear was water. Ever since that battle with Red Tornado's family, he stayed far away from any water below 3 feet.

Eventually, he dozed off leaving his younger siblings to figure out where to go. Jason, who was a little amused by Dick's actions and could tease him, left the older be and took matters into his own hands. He knew that eventually, their stamina would run out if they didn't find land. His emerald orbs searched his surroundings looking for any sign of an island.

"There." His finger pointed in front of his as a small strip of land came into view. "Let's move before our luck runs out."

Pushing the wood, the three boys made their way ever so slowly to the island. with Tim and Damian pushing on the sides, Jason pushed in the middle and kept a firm grip on Dick's arm making sure he didn't fall. Eventually, the wood made contact with soft fluffy sand.

"FINALLY!" Damian groaned and ran out of the water and onto the sand. Dick, who was now awake from the noise, threw his backpack along with Jasons on the sand. He took the items within it out to let then dry in the sun.

"Oh land, I will never leave you again!" Jason said and practically hugged the sand, which caused the others to smirk at his actions

"We need to set up camp for tonight. Before I well...fell I managed to press Damian's robin tracker. That should lead Bruce towards us. For now, Jason collect food, Damian and Tim build some sort of shelter that we can sleep in, and I'll collect wood for a fire." Dick said and got a corse of "ok's" in response

They went their separate ways to complete their job given to them. Dick entered the jungle that bordered the beach. He started breaking branches and picking up loose ones that laid on the ground. As he went down to collect another branch he heard movement from within the bushes...

-With Jason-

"What does he expect me to find for food? Chicken Strips and fries?" Jason grumbled as he dragged his feet through the sand
