CHAPTER 8

As he opened the door, a yell of pain was heard. It sounded like…

"Robin!" BB shouted and ran down the stairs, closely followed by the other 2. He morphed into a gorilla and jumped the last 5 stairs. When they looked around, they saw no one. All they saw was an empty cage, a giant steel table with cords all over it, and black handcuffs on the wall, also with cords. BB morphed back. "Well this doesn't look too good…"

They heard sinister laughter. And the cellar door slam shut. They looked up the stairs and saw a few moths had taken the liberty of shutting the auto-lock door. They also saw a light turn on at the end of the room. Kitten was sitting in a throne with her father standing in front of her. Robin stepped out of the shadows and sat on the arm of Kitten's chair.

"What have you DONE to him? DUDE! You look AWFUL!" BB was silenced by Raven's powers.

Then Kitten spoke. "Welcome to my home, Titans! This will be the last place you ever see!" She laughed and looked at them. "Where's the alien brat?"

"We decided that this would be too hard for her so she stayed home."

"Aw, too bad… Oh well, Robin will take care of her later. As for you 3… well, have fun fighting down here!" She laughed maniacally again.

Killer Moth leapt at them, as did Robin. He threw a smoke disc and they were blinded. Then they were attacked. BB turned into a bull and started flailing his head around. Then he saw Robin, standing in the cage. He charged, only to see Robin jump out a small hole in the top. The gate slammed shut and BB was trapped. "Oh well, I'll just go tiny!" He turned into a mouse and as soon as he was near the bars, he was zapped.

"HAHA! Did you think we were that dumb? Robin told us you might do that, so we made it electrical. Anything that comes from the inside will meet a force field strong enough to knock out a dinosaur! HAHA!"

BB just groaned and sat down, trying to plot an escape. Meanwhile, Raven was trying to protect herself and Cyborg while Killer Moth and his… mothlings?... attacked. She would only allow his cannon to breach the force field. He kept shooting and missing. She was growing weak, however, and she let her guard down for a minute. The mothlings attacked her while Killer Moth attacked Cyborg. Robin also joined in, attacking Raven. She was distracted by the mothlings, however, and she didn't notice Robin.

He grabbed her leg and threw her at the wall where Kitten was waiting. She hit it and her hands were immediately strapped into the black handcuffs, as were her feet. She tried using her powers, but the handcuffs blocked them. They were also draining her. "You can't do this, Robin! Let me go! If you drain my powers totally, you'll kill me!"

"I know." He sneered at her. He looked over at BB. "Changeling! If you haven't noticed, your cage is shrinking as well! When it gets small enough to touch you, it will start draining your energy as well! Same for you, tin man!" He said this as Killer Moth knocked him onto the table and strapped him down. He hooked wires up to him and he was losing energy faster than the other 2. Just at that moment, the cellar door slammed open.

CONCLUSION

Who (or what) could it be?
