Chapter Ten-Escape

Robin couldn't help but notice his captor's strategy. By changing the location he was being held made things difficult for him to grasp his surroundings. So far this room was the most uncomfortable. It was annoyingly cold and the smell of sterile chemicals burned the inside of his nose. As he became more aware he realized his arms and legs were restrained again. He was sitting up about half way in a very uncomfortable metal chair. Glancing down at his arm he noticed two large IVs attached to his right wrist. It made his entire arm sore. He wondered what she was giving him. Sucking in a deep breath he closed his eyes and attempted to reach Raven. Maybe their link worked both ways. Unfortunately he didn't get very far in his efforts when the door across the room opened quickly. A feeling of shock ran up his back and his nerves kicked in.

His captor was quiet as she entered the room with her android bringing all sort of disturbing looking equipment with her. She continued to work in silence only making him even more nervous. Taking hold of what looked like a syringe she came closer to him and plunged it into one of the lines going to his IV. The effects took only seconds as he felt his heart start to race. She then proceeded to pull on very long rubber gloves and put a paper mask on. Placing her safety glasses on the bridge of her nose she finally turned to him. He was actually glaring at her and she was clearly amused.

"I had no intention of being so 'hands on' with your initial extraction procedure but since you chose not to cooperate I decided it would prove to be educational. After all I have spent a lot of time recently studying normal human responses." She leaned over him in an intimidating manner as she spoke.

"You should just give up. My teammates are here and it's only a matter of time before they find you," He eyed her hand wearily as it slid under the thin sheet covering him. Her touch was cold as he felt her fingers between his legs. He let out a gasp as his testicles were roughly grabbed and stroked. She moved closer to his face with a satisfying gleam in her eyes.

"Considering the size of this city and the fact that no one knows you're here except me, I'm not too worried" She removed her hand and took a seat in a nearby stool, gliding in a direction he didn't want her to go. "Since you refused to listen to me earlier I think this is a good time to talk, don't you," she started as she settled between his legs at the other end of the chair. His knees were forced to bend more as they were pushed further apart to accommodate her. A light hovering nearby came closer as well. Robin swallowed hard already knowing where this was headed. "I suppose I should start with my name. It doesn't make sense to have such an intimate moment with you and have you not know that. I am Alaia and in case you weren't informed you are on a planet called Rann." She paused as though expecting him to return pleasantries.

"I don't care," he spat back through gritted teeth.

"Strange, I always thought it was polite to then say your name. That's fine though, that Tamaranean mentioned you go by Robin." His jawline visibly tightened when she said his name. "Now you are probably feeling a little on edge which is normal. The stimulant I gave you earlier should increase your adrenaline, endorphins and testosterone. You should start to respond sexually without any external assistance but then that wouldn't be as interesting. For future reference, it is important that I know what properly stimulates you without chemical assistance." She noted him shifting as much as he could away from her.. "As I was saying..." she pulled her instruments over as she spoke. "I am sure the Tamaranean informed you that I wanted you for breeding purposes however it is much more then that. You are not the first human to visit our planet. For decades my species has been unable to reproduce meaning we had to look for other means to prolong our way of life. So far there has not been any success except for one male human mating with one of our females. I am attempting to recreate this achievement." By this time in her story she had removed the sheet and was eyeing his exposed genitals. He knew his face was turning red the longer she looked him over. Finally he couldn't take it anymore and dropped his head back. He didn't know why this felt worse then the situation with Blackfire on the ship but it did. Maybe because he felt like a lab rat. With Blackfire he knew she just wanted to toy with his emotions and demoralize him.

There was an unpleasant sensation that broke his thought process. He then felt her hands again in places that he wasn't used to being touch. Despite his best efforts, his reaction was typical which made him want to be sick. The others had to find him soon. He couldn't live the rest of his life like this. Just as that realization hit him he felt something metal entering his urethra. He let out a disapproving noise and glanced down to confirm that was exactly what she was doing.

"Your organ has engorged nicely. You'll only feel discomfort from the suctioning tube initially." He grit his teeth because it was oddly starting to feel good and he hated that.

"You don't have to be so forceful, I thought you wanted to observe this naturally," he was practically yelling at her trying to distract himself.

"As I already explained, you decided to be difficult so we have to do this the more forceful way. I would have preferred otherwise." Suddenly it felt like an earthquake as the building shook around them. It was enough for her to stop. Robin sucked in a deep breath trying to calm down.

"What is going on," Alaia turned to the Android standing by.

"Apparently two Tamaraneans are fighting in the city limits. Two females and they are doing quite a lot of damage." This news caused his heart rate to increase. One of them had to be Starfire.

"Barbarians. If they are caught it could come back on me," She grumbled but noticed Robin paying close attention to see what she was going to do next. "Nothing I can do about it right now. Need to get back to this, right?" There was an annoying tone to her voice for the first time and he narrowed his gaze at her. She wasn't going to let him get out of this so easily.

Blackfire was slammed into another building cracking the glass as she made impact. Before Starfire was able to land another punch, her sister brought her legs up and kicked her backwards. She almost crashed into another building but was able to stop mid-air.

"You are going to tell me where Robin is." She yelled as she flew towards Blackfire again. The response was a chuckle as she pulled bits of glass and metal out of her hair.

"I don't know why you care so much. He'll get treated well here. No more running around with the rest of you freaks chasing criminals. Don't you think that life is too dangerous for someone so normal?" She received another punch to her face in response to her statement. Star wasn't holding back as she then knocked both of them out of sky and to the ground.

"That is not for you to decide!" Her sister smiled mischievously at her.

"Are you jealous, sister? I've gotten closer to Robin then you ever did." Her statement received another fist to the face which she took in stride. She grabbed Starfire by the front if her shirt and pulled her closer. "After all, I've seen him in ways you haven't. Have you ever seen him when you're not playing heroes? Without the suit and mask? I've seen him at his most vulnerable, in his most intimate moment. And you should really wonder why he hasn't let you in like that." The response was green beams shotfrom her sister's eyes, pushing her back into the ground. Starfire then went over to some kind of traffic sign and proceeded to beat her sister with it. After so many blows she paused when she heard Cyborg from her communicator.

"Star, I would love nothing more then to keep watching you destroy Blackfire but we gotta go." She dropped the sign and flew off, not saying another word to her sister. She hurried back to the ship in hopes that Raven had already found Robin. Then they could leave this place before she had to think too much about about what Blackfire said...but he wasn't there and her heart sank. Raven was clearly focusing more then normal with her fingers pressed against her temple.

"She's still looking," she asked Cyborg in a quiet tone.

"Yeah but she's getting there. As soon as she finds him she's going to teleport both of you to his location." She nodded silently clasping her hands together. Several minutes went by before Raven opened her eyes and reached back to Starfire.

"I found him," she stated and teleported the two of them out of the ship.
