Disclaimer: I do not own Teen Titans!! I wish I did, but I don't!

Pairing: Slade and Robin. Need I say more.

Warning: This is NOT a dark fic, it's slash, fluff, and sarcasm.

By the way: I do NOT have a beta, so there will be spelling mistakes. I do tend to re-read chapters 3 times before I post, but I'm only human and I can't catch everything. Please, feel free to point any errors out. Thank you!

A/N: To be honest, I know this is so late. But, I just couldn't for the life of me, dish out a good chapter. I worked on it like every week and restarted it, cause I was hating the way that it was coming out. I'm good at crack-ish, sarcastic, fun with light action. This chapter is a little dark, as you will come to find. But, there is a little treat at the end.

Now, on with the chapter!

Again: Drabble ideas are welcome!

Chapter 25

It started with a gun.

Well, many guns.

Robin didn't know which of the well-meaning souls wanted to aim any type of gun at Slade, but they had. It was obvious what would happen next, but Robin hadn't realized it would be so quick.

In a matter of minutes, the ninja's and the trio were in a full on war, guns, bombs, explosives, stars, sticky X's, and knives were being thrown. Red and Robin were caught on one side of the room, while Slade was making his way towards the other side, where Al Ghul had relocated to.

Robin stood in the front, not trusting Red to not get shot. Although, the thief was doing a rather good job at taking down the ninjas. The hero swore loudly when a bullet whizzed past his head and into the wall.

"Watch your head kid!" Red shouted, throwing one of his sticky X's.

Robin mumbled something, extending his Bo-Staff and then took out three of the guys in front of him.

It was rather messy. There wasn't any killing, but there would definitely be permanent damage. The sight of some of the enemies were rather grotesque. But, no one paid too much attention to that. They were all preoccupied with keeping all of their limps intact.

"You always were into chemically-altered viruses." Slade spat out once he finally reached Ghul.

"Ah, Slade Wilson, the enigma, a pleasure."

"I aim to please."

"I'm sure you do." Ra's spoke. "Although, I am not pleased…not pleased in the least."

"Too bad." Slade smirked, his staff shooting out and missing by a hairsbreadth. "I'm not sorry though."

"I'm sure."

They continued to fight. There styles similar in technique.

The two teen's were rather grateful when they noticed the small amount of enemies left to fight. It seems that they were gaining the upper hand.

Robin ventured a look to the other side of the room at Slade. Ghul and the one-eyed man were locked in a rather aggressive battle and the hero felt a twinge in his chest. He wanted to be the one who was fighting the man who had, more or less, screwed him…well, not like that. Ew!

Ra's Al Ghul thrust his sword towards Slade. The mercenary grasped the sword in his hand to stop it from hitting his mask.

"Excellent. I'm beginning to think I went about this all wrong." Ra's exclaimed, apparently rather happy at his revelation. "James informed me that you were powerful. But, your files are rather protected, I had no knowledge on you. I must say I'm impressed at your skill."

"Well, your really going to be wowed at this." Slade snarled, his staff landing rather painfully on Ghul's shoulder. They both heard the sickening crack, before Ra's growled low in his throat and his injuries healed themselves.

"Lazarus Pits are a rather glorious thing, wouldn't you say?" Ra's goaded, his sword cutting through his opponents. "it's much like the drug you and young Robin, now, have been injected with."

Slade narrowed his eye and shot a kick into the man's gut, causing him to become winded for a moment.

"I'm tried of this game."

"Only difference…" Ghul continued, his body landing against a few unconscious ninja's lying on the floor, from Slade punching him in the face. "Is that you might have lived for sixty years, with the body of a thirty-five year old. I, have spent the last three-hundred years perfecting my technique. My drones were merely puppets, used to lure you into a false sense of security. I am a much more formidable foe than those idiots."

"Then why all the trouble to change Robin?" Slade asked, going on the offensive, ignoring the man's taunts.

"Why, this is simple…" Ghul grinned, finally hitting the younger man with his sword, cutting across Slade's chest. The mercenary grunted while his own wounds healed, leaving a tear in his Kevlar top. "I wanted to create a balance in the world. To do that, I need to destroy the human populace…Unfortunately, the Batman wanted nothing to do with my plans…so, why not go to his former partner?"

"That seems quite predictable, wouldn't you agree?" Slade claimed.

"Quite. But, you yourself have travelled down that road once before." Ra's smirked this time, thrusting his sword at the man who continued to dodge. "Robin is just…too perfect…"

Slade reminisced about the time he had forced the teen into an apprenticeship by blackmailing him for the life of his friends. For some reason, it angered him that anyone, other than himself would go to such lengths.

"But, not perfect enough, it seems."

"No, never quite perfect. I wanted a killing machine, instead my subordinates screwed up my plans and I am to pick up where they left off." Ghul glanced across the room at the two teens who were still fighting the few remaining ninja's. "It shouldn't be too much longer."

Slade's uncanny ability to read people had some use in this situation. Ra's face spoke of planning, and the one-eyed man wasn't too certain what was about to happen next, just that he should be on full alert.

"I must thank you for the idea." Al Ghul spoke up, their fight having stopped to stare. Something was definitely going to happen. Just as the thought entered Slade's head, Ra's revealed a small red trigger, that looked startling familiar. "It was your idea, after all, to create Nano-probes to induce physical pain to those who oppose you…isn't that right?"

Slade narrowed his visible eye.

"The Beast inside of Robin was created for one purpose, sure. He may have gotten the Beast under control, but there is a tiny flaw in that plan." The man smirked, his eyes flickering in delight as he noticed the changes beginning to take place. "When the creature is push to it's limits, meaning caused great physical pain, especially to it's host, it goes into a fit of rage…killing everything in it's path…"

It was then that the trigger was pressed…

Red grinned under his mask when he noticed the last of the ninja's had been done away with. He ventured a look at the hero across from him before frowning. Why was Robin keeled over on the floor?

"Bean!" Red shouted, running over.

"Red…go…find Slade…I'm…I'm changing…"

"But, you can control the thing now…and I thought…"

But it was too late. Robin shot up, his claws slashing through the thief's suit, blood making it's way, in trails, on to the floor beneath them. Red cried out in pain, while Robin tensed up and jumped over the bleeding body, to the two beings on the other side of the room.

The room seemed to get more hostile at that point. Door's opened to reveal many more ninja's now accompanied by robots. Slade scanned the room. Robin was in a full on rage mode, jumping anything that even so much as came into his view. The mercenary watched in awe as the teen began to slice the heads of some of the opponents…

"As you can see…" Ra's never really got to finish that sentence, because Slade had planted a rather sharp knife straight through the man's stomach, making sure to twist it a few times before withdrawing. Ghul gasped out and clutched at his stomach before collapsing on to the floor.

The robot's and ninja's began their assault on Slade, hitting him with everything they had, while Robin continued making his way through the crowd. The man fought, but with dozens of opponents attacking him for each side, it wasn't long before he was taken down.

Ra's had recovered by this point, making his way over to the fallen mercenary.

The robots were holding Slade down, his body looked mutilated. Blood poured from the man.

"My pet." Ghul grinned when Robin stopped in his tracks.

The teen just growled, twitching once in a while. There was no question about it, Robin was no where inside there at the moment. The probes continued to send painful shockwaves through him. Each new wave of pain seemed to enrage the Beast even further, if the growls were any indication.

"Ah, I love that sound."

Robin snarled loudly.

Slade growled low in his throat, lunging forward and managing to kill the three opponents in front of him before he was restrained once again. Most of his wounds were healing, but they continued to be re-opened by the numerous attacks on him. Didn't mean that he didn't fight it though.

"Even in the face of defeat, you still continue to fight." Ra's snickered, raising his sword and levelling it with the one-eyed villain's neck. "You and Robin really are alike."

Ra's Al Ghul glared before raising the sword and bringing it down.

Slade expected a lot of things. The first being pain and then possibly death…although, who could really feel death?

He didn't, however, expect to feel nothing, besides the wounds he had already been inflicted with. So, when he stared in awe, at the severed hand that was lying on the ground, the sword still gripped…he did what any other person might do in this situation…

He fought, and fought hard. No one would stop him…besides, he had a bone to pick with Ghul.

Ra's screamed in agony, his arm lying on the floor, Robin snarling with his arm outstretched and claws poised.

"You!" Ghul shouted. "You insolent little child!"

Robin growled. "Don't touch him."

The three-hundred year old man snarled and watched as his arm regenerated itself. It had taken a little bit longer because it had been an entire limb.

"I should cut you down here as well." Ra's spat. "I see I have made a grave mistake. Ninja's…attack."

The room looked like a morgue…or an advertisement for one.

Hundreds of dead ninjas and destroyed robots littered the ground. Slade and Robin were on opposite ends of the room, crushing opponents left and right.

Most of Slade's injuries had healed, some were deeper than other's so they took the longest, but that wasn't of any concern to the man. He was more concerned for Robin and the way the teen hadn't reverted back.

"Robin!" Slade tried, hoping that maybe verbal interference would help. The teen didn't even look up and the man didn't have time to worry about it anymore, for Ghul began his own assault on the hero. Slade stopped short for a moment since there were no opponents to fight and just watched the fight. It looked like Ra's was loosing and badly.

It wasn't until he moved backwards that he noticed Red X's form lying on the floor. Slade cursed under his breath and killed the four ninja's blocking the thief. If he didn't stop Red's bleeding the dolt wouldn't live to see another day.

Robin faced off against Ra's half-aware of what was going on, the other filled with a thurst for the man standing in front of him dead.

"Robin." Ghul gasped, the teen retracting his claws from the crazed man's stomach. "You could have been perfect…"

The hero said nothing and only growled. The Beast was in no mood to hear anything that was being said. The pain that was coursing through his body seemed to intensify each and every step that he took. The one thing on his mind at the moment, crush the person who was causing said pain.

"Ro--" there was a claw held around the man's neck tightly. Robin's red eyes bore into Ghuls so intensely, that the villain actually felt the hatred oozing from those orbs. Many things passed through R'as's head at that moment, most of them angry. But, the small, almost human feelings felt fear…perhaps he really would die this time?

Robin snarled loudly, hissing with each breath that he took.

The teen raised his claws and struck…

Slade only heard the small explosion to his left, never seeing it. Until the room filled with Titan's. Raven was the first one in sight, quickly moving to the one-eyed villain's side to try and heal Red X who looked already dead. But, the Goth discovered that he still had a small pulse, meaning that he would probably live to see another day. Slade didn't know how happy he was about that…well…

Then a giant T-rex stomped in, growling and snarling, smashing a collection of robots that were in it's way. Cyborg ran through next, his cannon blaster all charged up and ready to go. Starfire flew in at full speed and made her way in a fury towards Robin. She was delayed however, when some of the ninja's attacked her.

Slade stood up from the kleptomaniac, searching the room quickly and finally his eyes landed on Robin, standing over a very mutilated version of what Ra's had been. There was no way the man would be able to regenerate any of his limbs…or organs for that matter…the man was dead it seemed.

Raven narrowed her eyes at the scene once she finished healing as much as she could, at the slaughter house before her. This had been what she had been witnessing in her visions, but there was something strange…something that seemed so out of place to her. Perhaps it was a part in the vision that had yet to come true? The Goth racked her brain, replaying the few scenes that she had seen in her head, trying to figure out why this all seemed so wrong to her.

She glanced at Robin.

The purple-haired girl gasped loudly at the sight of her leader. Robin was bathing in blood…and his face…his eyes…

"Robin…" she whispered. Then she looked to the mutilated remains of what she thought looked like a corpse, and put two-and-two together. Raven had no doubt in her mind that most of the dead people in this room had been at the hands of her leader.

It was then…looking at Robin in this form, that she suddenly realize what was missing from her visions. And as if reading her mind, the teen moved towards Cyborg, claws extending out, readying to strike.

"ROBIN! NO!"

Slade glanced back at Raven hearing her cry, and then back at the Titan leader who was charging Cyborg.

The mercenary moved like lightening, passing each of the Titan's who were caught in their own battles with the ninja's and robots whose numbers didn't seem to be diminishing.

Robin felt his body smashed into just as he was about to make impact on the half-metal man that was currently engaged in battle and hadn't known the events that would have transpired.

The teen snarled angrily at having been denied his prey and stared at the man who stood above him, with a somewhat concerned look on his features. Although, the beast cared little for that look, but apparently his host did.

The Beast wanted nothing more than to drag his claws through the man's skull. But, his host, the feelings that were bursting through the barrier between them made the creature hesitate slightly. The kid really did have a stubborn mind.

The Beast gripped it's head in agony, fighting for control inside of Robin's body. Slade watched, perplexed…before he realized that this was his chance.

The mercenary gripped the needle behind his back, swiftly lunging at the teen's kneeled body and stabbing the liquid injection into the hero's shoulder. The Beast roared in pain, a sound that caused everyone conscious in the room to quickly look over.

Starfire screamed in anger and her body engulfed in green before the ninja's were all flown into random walls around the room. She quickly rushed to her leaders side, but Slade grabbed her, not wanting Robin to attack her. It would be too much on the kid's psyche, he already had so much to deal with when this was over.

"Move over!" Cyborg shouted. "I've got the cure."

"You've what?" Slade growled out.

"I've got the--"

Robin snarled and lashed out, tearing part of Cyborgs metal torso out, apparently the sedative had no effect on the teen. The metal-man gasped and moved out of the way while Slade restrained the deranged teen.

"Hurry." The mercenary spat, holding Robin down as best as he could. Which was actually quite difficult, considering the teen was screaming bloody murder and clawing everything that he could reach.

Cyborg quickly picked the tiny bottle out of his arm and a needle he always had on hand. He filled the instrument with the liquid and plunged the cure inside of the teen.

A/N: I know, this chapter was a bit dark around the edges. But, I'm a little murky, especially when it comes to stories. That'll probably be about as murky as any of my stories get, however. I'm not into dark, but I love a good one sometimes, just not ALL the time. The most you'd get from me would be a drabble…

ANYWAYS

I decided to steal this idea from Wynja, but for only ONE occasion.

This story is finished in a few chapters and I have two story ideas that I want to kick off, but not at the same time. So, I'm going to give you a summary of the two, and I want you all to vote for the one you think would be better. These are both going to be based around Sladin. They are fun little stories. I don't plan to have either of them tooo long, like this one. Maybe ten chapters at the most, or that is what I'm aiming for.

So, here are the ideas.
