The Years That Pass us by

Slade read through the newspaper articles he had collected. Each of them had a reference to Robin but precious few held more. Other sources proved equally fruitless. A few blurred pictures, conflicting reports of his eye and hair colour. He was as good as a myth and myths always had a fatal weakness.

- - -

He had found Robin's weakness for his friends but Robin had found his own weakness, the will not to lose. They both exploited them and both had nothing to show for it. Robin would never willingly submit to him. What he needed was someone weak-willed, but if they had a weak will then they needed something to make up for it. Slade happened upon the girl by chance and manoeuvred her into a meeting with the Titans. When she ran he took her in and began moulding his new apprentice.

Robin looked into the stone eyes of the statue in front of them. She had made a sacrifice them and for the lives in the city below them. What kind of sacrifice he didn't know. If she was alive in the rock she had sacrificed her body and was now doomed to stand where she was, possibly forever. If she had sacrificed her life then she could finally be at rest. His eyes wandered to the plaque by her feet.

A True Friend

Robin sat at the computer typing the new information he had acquired.

"Mas and Menos travel incredibly fast but only while touching. Separating the two leaves them powerless. Their threat level is unknown when apart though it is doubtful they have trained in any form of self-defence. They seem to have mastered acrobatic attacks while at super-speeds including, though not limited to one lifting the other while moving. Both twins are highly inventive and so should be wary of unusual attacks."

Yawning he went over the other files he had updated. Brother Blood's new cybernetic implants was the largest. Saving his work he pulled the storage devise from the computer and slipped it into his belt. The safest place he could possibly put it.

Robin smiled as Raven made her way over to their friends. Turning round he turned to look out the window again. He had a lot to report about. Not only did he need to write down what he had learned about Trigon and Slade but he also had to update his files on Raven. He always knew she was probably the most powerful of the Titans but she had thrown all his previous reports out the window.

Signing he turned to join his friends. The reports could wait a while. He had already recorded everything into his dictaphone anyway. Right now he could do with a laugh.

Robin looked down at the girl who was sleeping happily in her bed. The thin pink sheet was all that shielded her orange naked form from him. Bending over her he planted a kiss on her forehead before collecting his cloths and walking to her bathroom. He ignored the feeling of cold tiles on his bare feet and walked over to the mirror. While Starfire had removed his uniform earlier the black domino mask was still in place.

He looked into his own eyes and frowned. Robin had worked with the Titans for nearly four years and only Raven knew what he really looked like. The only reason she knew was because she had ran into Dick Grayson as he left school one afternoon. It didn't matter how much he changed his appearance, her powers had cut through it all. She still didn't know who he was though, only what he really looked like.

Turning away from the mirror Robin began dressing back into his uniform. Since the Titans were a much more public group then he and Batman were Robin had decided to design his new uniforms after the one he had made in Korea. They were brighter and had gloves rather then a full arm coverings he had in Gotham.

"Robin." Starfire said from the doorway wrapped in her sheet. "What are you doing?"

"I have a patrol to do." He explained as he pulled a boot on. Starfire walk up to him and wrapped her arms around his neck. Leaning forward Starfire captured his lips in hers. Robin's hands went to her waist and pulled her further into him.

"I wish to wake up beside you. Please return with me to bed. We can have more of the sex." She pleaded. Taking a step back she allowed the sheet the fall to the floor, letting him see her fully. Robin let his eyes scan her naked body before he looked her into the eye.

"I'll try to be back before you get up." Was all he said before moving past her and towards her door.

Another update, don't get used to such a quick one. This chapter is just to show that the years covered in Teen Titans have passed by. Sorry to anyone who was expecting the other Titans to make more of an appearance but this is Robin's story not theirs.
