Slade's Secret
A/N Flame if you want to, just not too harshly, fragile personality. This is something I just came up with after drawing a picture of her...

Chapter 1: Spinning a Deal.
"What do you want Slade?" spat Robin to the screen in front of him. The evil man smiled his creepy smile.
"Oh it's very simple Robin. You allow me to get what I need and I do not blow this city to pieces."
Starfire gasped "Oh no! We could never...."
"Starfire quiet." snapped Robin "You don't have any proof that you've got anything that big Slade."
"Then you'll just have to see when it occurs won't you." hissed Slade and disappeared from the screen.
"Those disks contain everything he'd need to know to bring this city down." said Cyborg quietly.
"And we can't let him have them." Raven murmured.
"But he might have that bomb, and he'd defiantly use it." Robin said angrily.
"What if we did an exchange?" said Beastboy with his first usable idea since Terra had been frozen in stone "What if we get the disks, set up and exchange of the disks and the location and controllers of the bomb, and then once we have the stuff we want we just beat him up for the disks?"
"Too risky. He could give us faulty controllers and a incorrect location." said raven dully.
"I agree." said Robin "Much too risky."
Robin began to pace the room thinking, Cyborg sat down on the couch, Beastboy curled up as a dog and went to sleep, Raven began to meditate, and Starfire just watched her friends. After twenty five minutes no one had any thing else. Starfire began to worry as Robin got angrier by the second and began to show it. Raven was breaking light bulbs with frustration, and Cyborg was just plain too tired.
"Friends we must stop this! This is how Slade got us the first time, Beastboy has made a most intelligent suggestion and it is all we have come up with." Starfire unexpectedly burst out "Slade shall call back within seconds waiting for an answer and we must give him one. It is our duty."
The other Titans looked at Starfire stunned; all of their jaws had dropped seemingly to the floor. Starfire had never before burst out in anger or emotion before and now she had flat out told everyone what had to be done. As if on key the screen flared to life and Slade appeared.
"So Titans, what will it be? The life of thousands or the fight for information?" Slade sneered.
"A trade." Robin said in his 'this is final so no questions' voice "We give you the disks, you give us the location and controllers for the device."
Slade seemed to ponder the deal for a moment before smiling his cruel chilling smile. Starfire gulped and moved slightly behind Cyborg, Raven of course didn't even flinch nor did Robin or Cyborg, but Beastboy began to growl.
"You have a deal Titans, but there are three provisions." Robin nodded and Slade continued on "The first is that only the boys may make the exchange."
The Titans looked at each other rather confused it sounded like pure madness and this was only the first provision.
"The second is that I will choose the place and the time." Robin nodded again and Slade began for the third "And the final provision is that you allow someone besides myself to deliver the said items we have agreed upon."
The Titans looked as if Christmas had come early; no Slade meant less of a fight. Robin almost eagerly accepted the terms and Slade told them that the person would be wearing his symbol visibly and would be sitting on the roof of the small outpost of Wayne Enterprises overlooking Titans Tower at midnight the next night. As the screen went blank Slade smiled and turned to the girl in the corner; she would be perfect.
