Slade's: Chapter One
Robin walked slowly behind Slade as they made their way deeper into Slade's hideout; Robin's head was low and his eyes unfocused as he kept his eyes on the floor. Under his mask Robin's eyes were red and sore, because of the tears that fell before. As they entered a large room, Robin could see four large circular shields that surrounded each of his teammates. As Slade stopped, Robin stopped right behind him and waited for Slade to say or do something.
"Say goodbye Teen Titans, Robin is now with me," Slade told Robin's teammates, as Slade released the shields around each of the Teen Titans and then let them dropped to the ground.
Starfire flew from the ground towards Robin; Slade had moved away from Robin as Starfire flew into him knocking him off his feet and wrapping her arms around his neck. Robin lay against the ground, his arms as his sides and his eyes thankfully hidden behind his mask.
"Robin, your safe," Starfire shouted.
Robin didn't answer, he didn't even look Starfire in the eye as he gently pushed Starfire from him and stood up leaving Starfire on the ground completely confused.
"Robin, what's wrong?" Starfire asked, standing up at and taking a step away from Robin.
Under his mask Robin closed his eyes and turned his head away from Starfire and towards where Slade stood.
"Robin?" Starfire asked.
"Starfire, come here," Cyborg ordered, from behind Starfire.
"Robin, here now," Slade ordered.
Robin started walking towards Slade, Starfire stepped forwards grabbing Robin's wrist. Robin looked down at his wrist and then roughly pulled it from Starfire's grip and continued towards Slade. As Robin stood beside Slade, Slade put his hand on Robin's shoulder and looked out at Robin's old teammates.
"You can leave now," Slade ordered, the Teen Titans.
"Not without Robin," Beast Boy shouted.
"Just go, you can't help me," Robin ordered firmly.
"No one can help you," Slade corrected, Robin slowly nodded.
"Robin, we will help you," Raven called, as she followed the rest of the Teen Titans from Slade's base.
Taking a deep breath Robin turned towards Slade and waited for the next order to be given. Slade looked down at Robin, still dressed in his usual Robin outfit. Slade sighed and turned and walked away, looking back at Robin before he turned the corner and disappeared. Slade returned a few minutes later with a black and yellow folded suit like the one that he wore; Slade dropped the outfit in Robin's hands and then pointed to where he had just been.
"You can find some privacy around the corner to get changed," Slade ordered, Robin nodded and made his way towards the corner.
As he turned the corner Robin fell to his knees and let his tears fall, he dropped the outfit at his side and curled up in a ball out of sight. Robin cried silently, as his head pounded and tears fell easily from his eyes. Without noticing Robin's eyes slipped shut and he fell asleep curled tightly in a ball.
