Hey guys! This is my second Teen Titans fic, and I'm pretty proud of it, bear with me if it isn't the best, though. Enjoy!
Disclaimer: I do not own Teen Titans. Tofu will fly before I do. Let me know if you see any flying tofu anywhere. ( not to be confused with Nofu)
" I will accept any task. Nothing is too hard. To do what you say is my mission, my duty. I will. I must," I chanted. This marked the official start of the ceremony. My leader nodded.
" Good. This mission is emotionally challenging. Perfect for a girl with no emotion," she smiled. I nodded curtly and bowed, my straightened hair falling beside my face. I straightened again and was met with the sight of the master. I gulped. Occasions when the master was needed were rare, and not a good sign.
" Tana, you must kill Robin of the Teen Titans," he told me. No. Not Robin. Anyone but Robin. My best friend, and now my target. If I didn't do this, I would be killed. If I did, he would die. I simply nodded.
" Good. You need to prepare. You are dismissed," he waved me off. I walked straight to my room. I closed the doors.
" Aaaggghh!" I yelled. I hated this, my situation. Killing Robin was the main thing I promised myself I would never do. He was the only thing I still held dear. I stepped in front of my mirror, growling at my cowardly face. I hated that person in front of me. I hated the lack of emotion, and the submissiveness. But he brought this on himself. Yes, he left me here with these witches. To turn into this monster. Robin must die.
Robin's P.O.V:
" Titans! Trouble!" I yelled. Beast Boy stumbled in and rubbed his eyes.
" Again?" he complained.
" Who is it this time?" Raven asked, appearing from the shadows.
" A girl named Lox. She's been spotted vandalizing a local museum that holds a very, very valuable diamond. We need to stop her from stealing it," I briefed them when Cyborg had entered the room with Starfire.
" Then what are we waiting for? Let's kick her butt!" Cyborg exclaimed.
" Titans! Go!" I yelled. We all piled into the T-Car and zoomed off.
I entered the building to see a blonde around our age lounging around near the diamond.
" I was wondering when you'd get here. It's funny. I thought you knew me, Robin. If you looked closely, you'd know I'm not a very flashy person," she laughed. I knew that laugh, and it was making me uncomfortable. She raised her hand and a few gems from her side pouches rose with it.
" Of course I'm not here to steal that useless diamond. I thought you would have figured that out by now Robby," she said calmly, twirling some gems around her fingers skillfully. Beast Boy turned to me.
" Uh, Robin? How does she know your name?" he asked. The other Titans looked perplexed. Except Raven. She actually looked quite impressed. For Raven.
" I don't know. She said to look closely, and that's exactly what I intend to do," I said, getting into a defensive position.
" You mean you still don't know? You're losing your touch," she laughed. I lunged at her. She turned towards me and her blue eyes flashed. I knew who this was. She was my best friend. I tumbled.
" Remember me now, Robin?" she asked with a cruel smile.
" What do you want?" I asked, looking up at the blonde. She waved a hand.
" Oh Robin, does it always have to be something I want?" she inquired. I remained silent.
" You're right. I'm here to kill you," she said bluntly. I blinked.
" Who are you and who do you work for?!" Cyborg yelled from across the room.
" Call me Lox for now. I'll let you know when you can call me anything different," she smiled and squinted her eyes. She looked back to the diamond and used her powers to draw it towards her.
" You know what? This would look great in my collection. I think I will steal it. As a souvenir," she laughed. I reached towards the stone, but she
disappeared in a tornado.
" What. Just. Happened?" Beast Boy exclaimed. He was was surprised that we didn't win . We always win.
" We lost. Get used to it, she's good," Raven said bluntly.
" I know her. She was my best friend," I said. I hadn't seen her since the incident.
" I am confused. She was your friend?" Starfire spoke for the first time after the crime.
" Before she turned evil. It's too late now, let's go home," I said tiredly. They all nodded and we piled into the T- Car. Cyborg was whistling, like he was hiding something.
" Cyborg, I know you're hiding something," I prodded. He sighed.
" I picked up some kind of device in her. Something that drains her emotions. I don't know what it is though," Cyborg said in a rush.
" I do," Raven told us. We all turned towards her. Except Cyborg.
" What is it?!" Cyborg spoke what we were all thinking.
" It's a gem above her chest. It's the same kind I have. It's just being used for a different purpose. It's like a throw off. Most people in the universe will just think she meditates a lot. Like I did," she told us. We remained quiet.
" But we figured it out! Go team!" Beast Boy shot his fist in the air.
" Hahahhahahaha! Good one BB!" Raven yelled out. We all looked at her confusedly. Raven never laughs. Especially at Beast Boy.
" Her gem is messing with mine. Whatever I said, it was the gem talking," she explained, folding her arms.
" At least your gem thinks I'm funny!" Beast Boy said happily. Raven just blushed, put her hood on and slid down in her seat. We arrived at the tower a few minutes later. I went straight to my room. I went to the corridor where I kept every trace of my enemies. And my most cherished memories. I took out a very important box and lifted the lid. I picked up a small friendship bracelet like it was porcelain.
" It's all my fault," I whispered, clenching my teeth and the bracelet.
" What's your fault?" Cyborg asked. I almost dropped the bracelet, but then held it tighter.
" The girl at the museum. She was kidnapped by witches when we were younger. And I didn't do a thing," I said through gritted teeth, punching the wall.
" I'm sure that some part of her, deep deep deeeeep inside, is still the girl you remember. Don't worry about it too much and get some sleep," Cyborg advised. I nodded and set the bracelet down and closed the box. This box, the one I raced for, the thing I had formed alliances for. The thing all my enemies wanted, was a couple of pictures, a cape and an old bracelet. And I protected it with my life.
Thanks for reading! Updates will be frequent and awesome! Please review. Yeah, that'll be nice... *enters daydream*
For those of you confused, she can technically feel emotion, she just can't express it. :D
