It was midnight.
I liked that.
It was the perfect time to strike the titans in their sleep.
I jumped from building to building making my way to the tower that was their home. I landed on the roof of their tower and crept into the ventilation. I almost remember this place like it was my home, though I have never lived here. The smell also seems familiar although that could just be the smell of the titans whom I wish to destroy.
I walk along the hallways in silence, creeping, taking in all my surroundings and hoping not to wake the titans.
Cyborg is in the living room, watching the television, but oh he doesn't notice me, no-one will. I remember from a memory that isn't mine that Beastboy's room is down the hallway and to the right. He will die first. Then raven. Then robin. Then Cyborg and lastly, Starfire.
Beastboy's room is messy and will be messier after I kill him. I chuckle silently at myself at making that crude joke.
I pull my sword from my back and raise it above the sleeping figure in front of me, about to stab downward. I am going to relish this. I plunge the sword into Beastboy.
Yes…finally…he is dead…wait this isn't Beastboy. This is some pillows.
Outsmarted again! Damn!
The light goes on behind me and all the titans are there in a flash.
"We knew you'd come back to kill us Slade! So we made some friends" Robin exclaimed
"I've made some friends of my own after being killed" I said
The room begins to fill with shadows and the lights explode. I throw my sword behind me and it glides effortlessly through the air, decapitating Starfire in a fountain of blood.
"NO!" shouts Robin
But he doesn't get time to say a romantic monologue as I break his neck in a resounding snap. By that time Cyborg had realized what was going on and was about to shoot me when the shadows around up enveloped him and began to dissolve him, skin and metal alike.
Raven and Beastboy were harder to kill as they were more flexible, but it was still possible. Raven got trapped against a corner and I pulled her hood back and shoved my thumbs into her eye sockets until she was dead.
Beastboy got caught by my shadows, and the last thing he saw was the tip of my knife.
Upon leaving the tower, I started wondering why I didn't do that sooner. Oh well, Deathstroke had claimed another 5 victims.
