Chapter four: Trapped
-You are correct kids!
-What do you want? –Cyborg asked defiant
-It's not what I want Cyborg, it's what you are looking for –He moved aside for the Titans to see Robin tied up with a red substance
-Robin! –Everyone yelled at the same time!
-You will pay for it dude!
-If you don't do exactly what I want your friend will be the one that will pay for it! I want your sweet friend to tell me where the lab where she was turned into a human is and if she doesn't do it your dear friend will pay it with his life!
-But I don't know where...
-You'll find a way to arrive there cutie, so hurry up! –The TV turned of again and Red X's image disappeared
-Raven you have to tell us where that lab is soon! –Cyborg took her by her shoulders –Robin's life is in danger!
-But I can't remember anything! –Raven said a little worried. Her friend's life was in danger and she was the only one that could save him –I don't... I can't remember...
-Titans! Let's divide and search for that lab! Beast Boy, you will search in water, Starfire in air and Kid Flash, Raven and I on earth! Everyone move!
-But she doesn't have her powers so will be useless! –Kid Flash said as the Titans started to separate
-So take her with you! You were the one that brought her into this!-The Titans got out of the tower leaving them alone
-Great! What I've missed! –Kid Flash said sarcastically as he carried Raven on his arms –Hold on tightly! This will be a fast trip! –They got outside of the tower in an incredible speed. Raven looked around every place that could remind her of the lab
-STOP! –Kid Flash stopped so quickly that the two of them fell onto the floor
-What? –Kid Flash said as he got up angry
-I remember this place!
-Sure you remember it! It was Slade's lair!
-I know that! What I mean is that I have the feeling that the lab is here!
-Why should it be? Slade disappeared long ago! Don't you remember that?
-I know! Are you still mad at me because of the date?
-Why did you ask that?
-Because even if I'm not an empath I can still notice that you're mad at me! You can't hide your emotions pretty well! –Kid Flash turned his back to her -So?
-I'm not mad at you! I'm mad with myself! It's just that... I thought that I made something wrong to you and now that you tell me that it wasn't your fault I feel like an idiot because I felt so wrong with myself for so long!
-Two years...To be exact...
-Yeah, two years...
-Kid Flash, listen I'm so sorry... I know that I've... –But Kid Flash wasn't listening. He entered into the old fabric underground. –Kid Flash!
-Shh! I don't wanna hear it! I've had enough of this! –The place was dark and wet. Everything was destroyed and it seemed old, like if no one had been there in a very long time. They walked together in silence through the place. Suddenly a cold wind passed though Raven's legs; it was a bad idea to wear those short pants there. She got nearer to Kid Flash and took him by the arm. He jumped a little, surprised and stared at her. She was looking to the other side of the room.
-Are you ok? –He asked a little curious. She seemed a little scared
-There! I remember a door... It was cold inside... –They went together to the exact place where Raven pointed. There was a heavy steel door but it was closed
-Hold on –Kid Flash surrounded her with his arms and made their molecules vibrate so fast that they went through the door. Raven seemed dizzy for a moment
-Are you ok? It's hard to get used to it
-I'll be fine... –Raven and Kid Flash looked around. It was a completely different room than the rest. There was a white light illuminating everything. It was a big lab, completely clean and with lots of substances in different bottles and tables
-Wow... –Suddenly, there was an explosion. Kid Flash could cover Raven before she could get hurt but they fell onto the floor, covered with big rocks
-Kid Flash... Are you... ok?
-Ye... Yes... And what about you?
-I'm fine...
-Ouch! My rib... I think it's broken... –He said as he let himself fell over her because of the pain. If he moved, he could make the rocks fell over them.
-Um... This is a little uncomfortable...
-I'm sorry... It isn't my intention, if I move, I'm afraid that I'll make this fall over us...
-I... I know... I never imagined that this would happen to us...
-Me neither... But we can take advantage of this situation...
-In which way? –Raven asked as she stared at Kid Flash's eyes
-In this... –He moved his face nearer to hers. Their faces were about to touch when suddenly the stones started moving and a red substance tied them up together
