Robin woke with out hearing Slade's voice and robotically pulled on his suit. He had grown so used to the no-light, his eyes burned when he went into the sunlight. His baby blue eyes had grown cold and hard in the mere three days they had been here. He had learned so much. Don't mess with Slade. He'll get you back good. Tears began to brim at his eyes, but he just brushed his emotions and thoughts away and left his room. The lights of all the machinery in Slade's main room were bright, and Robin put a hand up to his eyes to shield them. Once his eyes had gotten used to the light, he took his usual post at the screens and waited for the other males to appear. Once they were all there, Slade told them he had a special mission planned for them today.
"You will infiltrate a building in broad day light and steal these three chips." Slade held up pictures of the three chips Red X had lost him. Robin smiled at the memory, then frowned. Slade, being finished with them, told them to get ready, he would arrange for transportation. Robin actually looked over at the other two male Titans and his blue eyes, usually cold, were now full of worry. He spoke, and this time, his voice wasn't toneless. He was definitely worried, and only one thing could do that to him: Starfire.
"I have a feeling he's going to do something to the girls while we're gone, guys. We gotta be careful." Cyborg glared at him and Robin took a step back.
"Since when has that been a problem, Robin? Now? Slade could've done something to Kiyani-or Raven or Starfire-while we were out getting his chip! And you didn't care!" Robin's surprised eyes turned cold and hateful again.
"What do you mean, I didn't care? I think about all of you. The only way to get out of here is to prove how strong we are. If we show our emotions, Slade'll figure we're weak. We're better than him! We beat him once, we can beat him again! Just give me time to-AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Robin grabbed his head and sank to his knees. Slade appeared in the shadows, shaking his head. Robin writhed around on the floor in agony and Starfire screamed.
"Shame, Robin. You should know by now not to think." Robin screamed wordlessly and threw a Birdarang at a machine. It bounced off, leaving no more than a dent in the machines side. Slade seemed to increased the pressure of the pains in Robin's head because Robin let out another scream before passing out on the floor, twitching like a dead snake (have you ever seen one? Ughhhhhhhhhh!). Starfire screamed again and shot out of her ropes. Slade, Caught by surprise, took a step back. Starfire put Robin's head in her lap and tears slowly fell from her cheeks onto his. When she looked up, her eyes were flaming green, and Raven and Kiyani joined her.
"Your defense has run out, Slade. You cannot shoot us when we are in motion!" Starfire fired a star bolt at Slade and he flew back. Raven threw a piece of machinery at him with an emotion that she hadn't used except when kissing Beast Boy: happiness. It pinned Slade to the wall and he glared at her. Raven pushed him further into the wall and Cyborg powered up his Thermo Cannon.
"Don't mess with the Teen Titans." Kiyani went up to him and put a hand on his shoulder. Cyborg smiled down at his little sister and she smiled up at him.
"Or their family!", she said, glaring at Slade. He pushed against the machine, but Raven called up every happy memory she had had, and with a smile, pushed the machine back onto Slade's chest. He gave up and merely glared at the Titans. Starfire floated up to him and her eyes dimmed to a soft green glow. She smiled and crossed her arms, star bolts still formed on her hands.
"We will always triumph." Slade grinned at this. Starfire's eyes flared up again, and she hurled a star bolt stream at him. He merely laughed and choked as the machine was pressed further onto his chest.
"But at what cost will the Teen Titans triumph?" He inclined his head to where Robin's now still form lay and Starfire gasped. How could she have forgotten him? She flew over to him and landed quietly at his side. She checked his heart rate, he had a pulse! His breath, however, was coming in shallow gasps, and if the pain on his head had not been lightened when it had been, he could've sustained major head damage. As it was, he would have to sit out a few missions when they got back to the Titan Tower. Gently picking up Robin's limp form, Starfire turned back to Slade, her eyes glowing bright green.
"You will never be victorious, Slade. All your power is fueled by hate. We are fueled by a different emotion. Sometimes it is hate-" at this, she looked down at Robin's form in her arms and bit back tears. "But we are fueled most of the time by love. Love for the city, and love for each other." Beast Boy put his arm around Raven's shoulder and added his good memories to her powers so she could hold the machine in place longer. Kiyani smiled at her brother and gave him a hug. He hugged her back, a tear forming in his human eye. "And you can never have that if you keep doing these evil deeds. So I give you a choice: face countless years in prison, as you should, or redeem yourself. Become good. Fight for us, with us, not against us." Slade let out a laugh and Raven pushed the machine further into his chest. Beast Boy whispered something into her ear and she sighed, relenting a little. Enough so that Slade could breath, no more.
"Ha! Fight for good? That's funny Starfire. And next thing you know, pigs will fly!" The dry humor in Slade's voice enraged Starfire and she threw her most powerful star bolt at Slade, almost killing him, and definitely knocking him unconscious. Raven let her hold over the machine go and slumped into Beast Boy, who was also semi-drained from his experience. Nevertheless, he held Raven up and whispered soothing words to her. Robin stirred in Starfire's arms and opened his eyes. Starfire smiled down at him and set him on his own feet. He stood, a little wobbly at first, but gaining strength every second. He put his hands on Starfire's waist and pulled her into a deep kiss, and Starfire blushed, putting her arms around his neck. Beast Boy and Raven did the same, and Cyborg and Kiyani just sat down and sighed, grumbling about not having boyfriends/girlfriends.
