"Alright Titans, you heard him. Superboy and Impulse, you're the first wave - Impulse, get Crow out whilst Superboy keeps him busy. Stature, back them up. Batgirl and I will be right behind you." With his shoulder injured, he couldn't get as involved as he'd have preferred, so he had to stay towards the back and provide tactical advice and orders. Batgirl would be the most use once she'd had a chance to get a read on Pyramid Head's combat abilities watching the others - for now, sending in Superboy as a heavy hitter and Impulse to get to Eric was the best idea. "Titans, together!"

Kon wasn't a man of strategy (that was Robin's job) so his first move was to break the stupid hat, mask, the pyramid thing on his head. He repeatedly allowed his fists to hit PH full force expecting the pyramid on its head to crack or at least dent but it didn't.
"What the..." Kon felt uneasy, as if there was something wrong with the entire situation.

Eric was distinctly present and in the now, fully aware that he had lost an arm, and yet having trouble being to upset about it. He was too focused on the vision he'd seen in the foggy, warped sphere around Pyramid Head, trying to decide whether it would be better to assume it wasn't real or to try and pursue it.
Not that he was going to be doing too much pursuing at the moment. The people in the ambulances seemed nervous to the point of abject terror, but they at least attempted to follow Bart's order to reattach his arm. They held it against his bleeding stump, and, slowly but surely, it began to reconnect itself. The paramedic seemed hard pressed to stay where he was, holding his arm on until the connection could support itself. It probably wouldn't be very useful for some time, but at least it wasn't a lost cause.
Eric smiled. Blood-spattered, missing an arm, just having seen a vision of his dead fiance--there wasn't too much to smile about. Then again, he had lost alot of blood, even for a ( ... )

As the boy landed blows on his unbreakable helmet, the monster stood still, receiving them like he was a punching bag. When the kid finally took notice they were having no effect, the seven-feet-tall thing seized his pause to take his turn.
Too fast for normal eyes to catch on, Pyramid Head grabbed Kon's face, wrapping his fingers around his head like you would with an orange you're about to squish between your fingers. He squeezed tight and slammed him down on the floor, with such terrifying calm, that he seemed to be playing. He pulled himself up and brought up the knife, the tip pointing down to Kon's face.
And then he brought it down for this guilty soul's punishment.

Kon took hold of the hand holding his head and used his strength and his tactile telekinesis to pull himself away from the hold. Everything now felt like it was moving in slow motion, or rather he was moving in slow motion and couldn't move away fast enough to avoid the knife.
It all happened so fast that he didn't feel the blade as it slashed across his chest.

Pyramid Head put his left foot on Kon's shoulder slowly. He gripped the handle with his left foot and the muscles of his arms clenched. Pushing down the dirty boot on the boy's shoulder, he crushed it as he pulled out the knife. Kon could feel his own muscles clenching around the blade, sucking it in, but the monster's strength overruled the body as he pulled it out and blood began to gush everywhere.
With the same apathetic posture, Pyramid Head began to prepare the second, deadliest blow he was going to deliver to the Kon's neck.

But he hadn't, and now Kon was lying there with a gaping stab wound, about to receive another.
There wasn't even time to say anything - he just reacted, moving like lightning to reach Kon and pull him out of the way of the monster. Pain surged through his still-healing shoulder but he ignored it, gritting his teeth and grunting as he carried Kon towards the ambulances, away from the alley and everyone else. He was reasonably strong, but Kon was heavy - he knew he had to keep his momentum going if he was going to make ( ... )

Basically, he was looking Moon Knight suspiciously and trying to understand why X-Force wasn't getting involved already as well as deciding when and where he was supposed to butt in when the Pyramid guy had hit Kon. Tim was there before him - Tim with superspeed and still his awesome reflexes and decision making skills was really something - and had gotten Kon out of there.
He must have opened up a wound or two in the process (Ugh! Tim was always hurt) but Bart knew he wouldn't stop running until he reached his destination. He had instinctively followed Tim when he had left with Kon and reached the medics, once again, shortly after him. He was still giving out tactical advices on his comm and Bart took a look at Kon more closely and shit that look. Woah. Pretty bad ( ... )

He looked down at Kon again, at the bloody, ragged hole in his chest. Bart couldn't take as much damage as Kon could, usually he could dodge it but Pyramid Head's movements were difficult to predict and react to, even with superspeed. And Bart was still young, capable but less experienced than he would be as Kid Flash, less cautious about his own well-being. Tim couldn't send him back out there, especially not when their friend was lying here, bleeding and broken.
"Okay." Was all he said, voice tight with repressed emotions and concern.

"Yes. That is certainly true, Deadman."
The paramedic shoots an unsettled glance over his shoulder, then shakes his head and keeps working. Job to do.
