Ridiculously Romantic
Robin woke up, finding himself drooling on the plans he had around him. Mentally kicking himself for sleeping when Starfire was in danger, he sighed a sleepy sigh.
"Where are you Starfire." As if a whole new mind had swapped with his old one, ideas came rushing into him. Getting dizzy from all the adrenaline, it finally clicked to him. The screen.
Robin made his way towards the living room and found Beast boy lying on the couch, papers scattered around the area, and one flying up and down every time he snored.
Gently he pushed the Junk File button and swarms of letters and messages appeared in a long list. Searching down, he found what he was looking for. Playing repeat, he heard what Slade had to say.
'"I'll get revenge Starfire, and if I do die, I will make sure you die first."'
After listening to it a few times, the 14th time he seemed more interested not in Slade's words, but in his surroundings. Robin noticed that there were Robots and steel walls around him.
Robin clicked his beeper and all the titans' alarms went off. Beast boy yelped as his sent a shock through him. Wiping away his drool and sleepy eyes, he got up and stood next to Robin.
"Dude, you get anything."
"I'm here, what is it?" Raven's long sleepy drawl came.
"Boy, it's 3:30 in the morning, we have to sleep if we want to have a full look out search for Star in the morning!" Cyborg scratched his one eye; the other was beeping red from the alarm.
"I think I know where Slade his hiding, and is hiding Star." He said bitter. Not enough sleep did not do him well. Raven looked at him as though he was crazy because he just paused.
"Starfire is in a disguised building. It's going to look scrungy on the outside, but elegant on the inside. And Slade's main hide out has to be under water, because there is no full steel building around this town."
"How do you know that's where Starfire is, how do you know it's in disguise?" Beast boy asked.
"Because, when Slade had been talking to us after the kidnap, he was in a black room covered in pink lining, and I believe that is where Star is now. And I am sure it would be too obvious for us if he chose a manor of elegance as a hideaway."
"True, sounds reasonable." Raven said, trying to keep from yawning.
"So when do we search?"
"In a while, I still have to plan our attack. Get some sleep guys, we will be up in a couple of hours."
"Robin, maybe you should sleep too." Beast boy sounded concerned. Robin smiled. "Don't be going Starfire on me." Beast boy chuckled and wished him good night.
Rocking back and forth on his heels, arms crossed, he stared at Slade's shadowed face that was paused on the screen. 'What does he want with me?' He now crossed one arm over his stomach, holding his right elbow in his left palm, while his right hand was up, picking at his lip as he bit it.
Eyes still transfixed on Slade, memories of his dream came washing back into him. No matter how hard he tried to remember the dream, it would only show him a picture of his family.
A man dressed in a uniform with black untidy hair, smiling brightly as he put a hand on his son and an arm around his wife's tiny waist. Must be his father no doubt. There a woman dressed in a long flowy pink dress. The sparkling woman had her delicate arm around her son's neck/chest. Her hair was up in tight curls, her smile was so clean, her face so.. Pure. Robin's mother for sure.
And the little boy, he was probably around 3, standing tall on a white footstep. His hands were neatly folded behind his back; he was wearing the same uniform as his father. He had spiky black hair, a small button nose and a huge smile. He was so cute, with his whole family there.
Robin produced a small smile, but it instantly turned into a frown, as Slade ripped the memory picture apart and laughed wickedly. "Come to me boy, we shall take over the world as-"
"ALERT, MESSAGE ALERT!" The robotic voice came. Depressed already, Robin pressed the open button and he really hoped it wouldn't be Slade.
A preppy girl with high blonde pigtails came on. "HI Beast boy! This is Sara Green, your biggest fan! I wanted to know if you were able to go to the movies with me sometime?" Robin pressed the delete button.
"Stupid girl, she leaves a message for Beast boy at 4 in the morning?" He rolled his eyes annoyed. He put Slade's face back on the screen and glared. "I'm coming Slade, like I said, I will be behind your back ready to attack soon enough."

"You know, now that I think more of your plan, I think I really do like Starfire. I think I'm seeing her in a whole new light." Mammoth said out of the blue as Blackfire was writing up ways to gain her sister's trust.
"Good for you." She growled. "Now do you know what you are going to do to win her heart?"
Mammoth smiled, holding a tiny rock. "Yeah, I know exactly what to do."
*************************************************************
Time passed slowly, but it did pass. It was already 7 something in the morning and the birds were chirping joyously on this depressing day.
Starfire awoke finding Devion staring at her. She screamed and pulled the covers over her. "I'm sorry, did I scare you?" Devion asked, putting on his best innocent smile.
Starfire looked at him but didn't say a word. 'He is actually not that bad looking. He seems so flawless, beside the fact that he kidnapped me.' She thought.
"You know, I've never met a more beautiful woman that you." He complimented her. She smiled, not knowing what to say really.
"Thank you. I'm sorry to leave you here, but I must find a way out of this creepy palace." She said getting out of bed and hopping to the floor. Devion got up with her.
"M'dear, you aren't supposed to leave." He said, holding on to her wrist. Starfire stared at him, then took a look at her wrist. She immediately tried freeing herself from his grip. "Let go Devion. I mean it, LET GO!" Star yanked her hand away and fell back on the bed.
With hungry eyes, he leapt for her. She shrieked and jumped off the bed in time. She was about to flee out the door, but he grabbed her wrists again and swirled her to the wall.
Her back rested against the padded wall and he was staring gluttonously at her. He managed to let go of her wrists, but hold her tight against the wall. Both of his hands were on either side of her head, pinning her in place.
With frightened eyes she stared at him. "Starfire, you know I want you, why don't you want me too?"
"Because you are not a good person."
"If you become mine, I will show you what a good person really is. You can have all the riches you want, slay as many people as you please and torture all who cross your path."
"You are a damn sick monster!" Her voice was unusually high as she screamed her words at him.
"Starfire please, don't struggle." He started to nuzzle her neck, nipping at her chin and sucking softly on her earlobe. Starfire pushed him away, but he came back with full force. He pinned her hands with his on the side of her head. She was stuck.
"Devion, please. Stop right now, I do not wish to go any further with you."
"You will come to me Starfire, and you will love me."
"No, I won't. You better get off of me Devion! Robin will come and he will beat your ass! Raven will choke you with her mind, Beast boy will stomp on you and Cyborg will blast you away!" She spit in his face when she was finished.
Closing his eyes, he laughed as the spit leaked down his cheek. "Robin will save you? Robin is as good as dead when I finish him." He paused. "Starfire, you will come to me, and you will be my bride, whether you like it OR NOT!" He yelled.
He banged his fists against the wall just above her head, causing her to shut her eyes tight and look down. When she had the courage to look up again, she realized that he was gone.
"He won't die, he will kill you." She muttered as she slid down the wall on her knees. She put her hands on the ground and stared at the floor. "He will not die, he won't die, he can't die." Salty tears hit the black carpet and exploded in wet salty crystals.
*************************************************************
"We've been searching for this crumbled house and haven't found any in the town." Beast boy told his teammates.
"She must be somewhere else Robin, because I can't sense her anywhere in town." Raven said, holding two fingers to her crystal.
Cyborg hummed as his red eye searched for any sign of invisible beings walking the earth. "And no one is invisible because my eye would detect it."
"She must not be in town, she has to be in a forest then, or SOMEWHERE!" Robin was getting frustrated. "We can't give up, we just can't!"
"Dude, get a hold of yourself! We aren't giving up!" Beast boy reminded him. "We will never give up."
"Let's go search the forest then." Raven said making her black power raise Robin and Cyborg up. They flew across the water and landed gracefully to the ground in a matter of minutes.
"You know, I think I'm sensing something." Raven said. "And it doesn't smell good."
"Do you think they hurt her?" Cyborg asked.
"He wouldn't!" Beast boy gasped. "Slade want's Robin, so he knows not to hurt Starfire."
"And what's that supposed to mean?" Robin asked intrigued, but covering it up by snarling.
Beast boy sweat dropped. "Well, you see, um it means, that well.." He scratched the back of his head, but Cyborg took over.
"It doesn't matter, let's just keep going, we aren't going to get anywhere by bickering, so c'mon y'all!"
After traveling for what seemed like forever, they finally came a cross a fork in the road. "Which way should we go?"
"This way." Raven said pointing to the left.
"We're off to see the wizard, the wonderful wizard of Oz!" Beast boy sang loudly.
"Beast boy?" The three titans' asked.
"Yeah?" He said brightly.
"Shut up."
"Okay."
"You guys, I think we have found what we are looking for."
A large mansion that was covered in vines and was halfway in pieces was in the middle of a small clearing.
"Is it just me, or does this thing make the whole place thundery and dark?" Beast boy asked as drops of rain drizzled on them.
"C'mon." Robin said, waving his hand for them to follow.
"You know all those scary movies where the zombies come out and suck your brains?" Beast boy asked Cyborg as he was clinging to him in fear.
"Yeah, your point?"
"This is how it always starts out. A dark mysterious mansion and a friend missing."
"You are just scaring yourself Beast boy." Raven said in her monotone voice. "Get over yourself."
Beast boy ran to her side. "You'll protect us with that swirly blacky thingy right?" He said as he turned himself into a black swirl.
She smiled a little. (*A LITTLE* ^_^) "Sure Beast boy, sure."
"Split up." Robin said as he kicked down the two front doors.
"Are you going to go look for Slade?" Cyborg asked.
Robin looked down. "Not this time."
Raven nodded and motioned for the rest to help her find Slade.
"I'm coming Starfire, keep yourself safe until then." Going down passages and trap doors, Robin made his way towards the highest room. The only problem was two robots were blocking his way.
"You there, you are not supposed to be here!" One robot yelled.
"This is it!" Robin yelled as he attacked both guards at one time. Kicking one guy in the chest and punching the other in the face they fell to the floor. Robin jammed his hard fist into one of the robot's chest and yanked out the wires holding the man together.
The other robot got up and jumped on him. Robin swung him around and threw him on the ground. He popped out his metal stick and was about to stab it in the robot's neck when he heard Starfire scream.
"Starfire!" He yelled. The robot took the opportunity to kick up and punch Robin's face. Tasting blood, he spit out the substance in his mouth and attacked.
"Hiyah!" Robin yelled before jumping up and kicking the man's face with brutal strength. The head jerked off and the wires that were keeping the head on snapped and went rolling along with it.
With immense physical strength, Robin blasted down the thick dying wall with his high kick.
Looking up, Starfire shouted with glee. "Robin!" She turned towards Devion who was on top of her on the bed and stuck out her tongue. "I told you he would come for me!"
"Your right, but like I said, he will be done for when I'm finished with him."
***********************************************************
"Where is Robin?" Slade's mysterious voice came from inside the shadows.
"He is saving Starfire you power hungry old fool!" Beast boy yelled.
Instead of throwing an insult back at him, Slade laughed.
"He's nutters, he's laughing at a time like this?" Beast boy said.
"And what time might this be?" Slade said coldly.
"Payback time." Cyborg growled cracking out his sonic cannon and aiming it in the shadows.
"It is now your time to die Slade." Raven said manipulating a piece of glass.
"Oh quite the contraire, I won't be dying tonight by your pathetic hands."
************************************************************
"Perhaps it's best if I finish this where we left off. GET OFF OF HER NOW!" Robin yelled pointing a finger in his direction. Slowly, Devion got off, but held her in his arms, making sure she was standing in front of him.
"What a pleasant surprise wood pecker, didn't think you were going to show. I almost had your girlfriend thinking you weren't going to make it."
"The name is Robin, and she's not my girlfriend."
"Oh?" Devion smiled devilishly. He started to nuzzle Starfire's neck as she cringed with fear. "She isn't is she?"
Robin eyed him with malice. "Prepare to die!" He yelled.
"Oh, but that is where you are wrong. You can't kill me, I am already dead." Devion started to rub Starfire's stomach and waist. "She feels so good, it's a shame you don't have her for yourself."
Robin produced a dangerously loud growl from deep inside him. "FUCK YOU!" He attacked. Devion threw Starfire to the bed and started to fight.
Star tried to get her energy balls to work by slapping her arm where he had shot the poison inside her. "C'mon, c'mon!" Suddenly a small green orb created in her fingers. "It's working!"
Kicking and punching merciless, Robin was kicking Devion's ass. Devion threw in a punch causing Robin to fall to the ground. "You are not human!" He yelled.
Robin got up. "I am, you are just weak!"
Devion's eyes started to glow red and the middle turned into snake eyes. Robin watched in horror as the teenager in front of him started to transform.
"I'll show you weak!" Devion hissed. He was almost in his complete transformation of a huge red and black cobra when a massive green energy ball exploded in his eyes. He then shot back down to human again.
"Starfire?" Robin said weakly. Starfire's eyes were glowing emerald, her hair was out and she flying near Devion. Huge energy balls, even more massive than before, were in her hands aiming at Devion.
Robin knocked Devion out with his metal stick and ran to Star who was floating back down slowly. He held on to her as she gripped on to him.
"I'm too weak." She said softly. Robin picked her up bridal style and ran through the mansion searching for his friends. He came to a large room swallowed in darkness.
He heard voices. "It is now your time to die Slade." He heard Raven's dark monotone voice.
"Oh quite the contraire, I won't be dying tonight by your pathetic hands." Slade said with amusement in his voice.
Robin stepped out from the shadows, Starfire had lighten up the room with a small green light. "You're right, but by mine."
Everyone turned around and faced Robin who was carrying Starfire in his arms.
Slade smiled. "Robin."
"Prepare to die Slade, and this time by me." Robin walked foreword and placed Starfire in Cyborg's arms.
Loud thumps were heard marching down the hall towards they way. "Teen Titans, I believe this is your end."
One hundred robots were all lined up in 5 rows and 25 down. "More like your end Slade." Robin snarled. Out of nowhere, Robin's foot had hit Slade across the face, cracking a little bit of the mask that he wore.
"Mistake Robin, very bad mistake." He growled. "Attack!"
The robots chased after Cyborg, Starfire, Raven and Beast boy. Beast boy transformed into a tyrannosaurus Rex and started munching on the steel robots. "They don't taste good at all!"
"Azarath Metrion Zynthos!" Raven yelled, flying up she sent her black swirls at one row of robots, holding them in place. One that had escaped shot her down with a shock gun. "Raven!" Beast boy yelled transforming back going to her twitching side.
"Raven you okay?" He cried. "Answer me!"
"Azarath Metrion Zynthos!" She screamed. Beast boy turned around and found a robot stuck inside the black swirl holding up and ax. Beast boy sweat dropped. "Thanks."
Cyborg was blasting the robots away while holding on to Starfire. "Come play with my 'wittle' 'fwend!'" He said in a Scar face voice, making the robots acknowledge his sonic cannon. "Haha!" He laughed as he blew the suckers away.
Slade on the other hand was pushing around Robin. Slade had him pinned to the ground, a gloved hand on his throat, pushing it farther down as Robin struggled to breathe.
"Remember your mother Robin?" He chuckled. "She was such a lovely woman, a beautiful lady." Robin growled.
"Her voice was like a dove singing about love."
"How do you know my mother?" Robin snarled, trying to rip Slade's fingers off of his neck.
"I knew her very well. She was so smart, but oh so foolish all the same." He laughed again. Robin was getting furious. "Leave her out of this! She has nothing to do with us!"
"Oh that is how you are wrong Robin, you see, she is our world!"
Robin, out of immense fury, punched Slade in the face, causing it fall to the ground in a clang.
Slade threw himself off of Robin and back into the shadows. Robin took in a deep breath and got up slowly. "Where are you Slade? Come out and fight!"
Slade's icy patient voice came. "Until another time Robin, until another time." A loud bang exploded and silver and gold smoke filled the dark room. Robin banged his fists against the ground and growled. "He got away!"
"Robin!" Came Starfire's cry for help.
"Hurry Robin, I can't hold off all these robots forever!" Raven grunted as she threw another black swirl at them.
Robin ran to his friends' side and was about to use gizmos from his belt when someone ordered the robots to stop. "Tick tock, tick tock, you better hurry and run out of here Robin, time is running out." Devion came out of the shadows holding his eye.
"Let's hurry Robin, I do not wish to stay here any longer!" Starfire cried, tugging on Robin's cloak and staring fearfully at Devion.
Robin glared daggers at the boy and flipped him off. He then pointed to him and whispered. "You are a goner."
"Let's go!" Beast boy called. "The place is going to explode, all these robots are destructible."
"Teen Titans, GO!" Robin yelled as he carried Starfire out of the crumbling mansion.
Nightfall hit the town and area around the Titan tower as they entered it. Beast boy ran to the couch and lay down on it. "What a day." He mumbled. "Time for some relaxation." He grabbed the game controller and called for Cyborg. "Cyborg, buddy oh pal!"
Cyborg grabbed his bag and headed towards the exit door. "Sorry B.B, I'm um, meeting someone." With that, he ran out the door.
Beast boy knitted his eyebrows. "Probably with Ayrasia."
"He's here for two seconds, then out the door." Robin chuckled. "He has some serious energy."
As Robin and Starfire walked out of the living room, Beast boy heard Raven call to him. "I'll play with you B.B, but don't get used to it." She smiled oddly. Beast boy returned the smile and looked at her as if she were a brand new person. "Prepare to lose!" He just had to ruin the moment!
Shutting the door behind him, Robin walked into Starfire's room. She had insisted that he let her down so she could stretch out her legs. Robin tugged at his cloak awkwardly, as there was a silence.
Starfire's back was to him but he was looking at her anyway. "Um Starfire, I'm sorry I wasn't there to protect you."
"Need not feel guilt Robin, I was careless, I should have blasted him when I had the chance."
He tugged at his cloak once more, and stood straight, in a brave position. "I'm still sorry."
Starfire turned around slowly and looked at him warmly. He returned it. "Robin, thank you for saving me, I am now in your dept."
Robin shook his head and laughed. "No you're not, friends save friends, through small or big troubles."
Starfire smiled brightly and ran to him. She embraced him in a tight hug and rested her head against his muscular chest. Hesitating at first, Robin gently wraps his arms around her, softly stroking her long hair.
"Thank you." She whispered looking into his eyes. Robin put his forehead on her forehead and stared deeply into hers. "Best friends forever?" She asked.
"Starfire I-" The gap between them started getting smaller as Robin leaned in for their first kiss. Ruining the moment, a small pebble hit her window, causing her to turn her head. She turned back around and smiled, getting out of his hug and walking over to see who had threw the rock.
Robin sighed then mumbled to himself almost silently. "Yeah, best friends." Walking over to her he leaned out the window finding Mammoth serenading a song to Star.
"What?" He said outraged.

"Let's go search the forest then." Raven said making her black power raise Robin and Cyborg up. They flew across the water and landed gracefully to the ground in a matter of minutes.
"You know, I think I'm sensing something." Raven said. "And it doesn't smell good."
"Do you think they hurt her?" Cyborg asked.
"He wouldn't!" Beast boy gasped. "Slade want's Robin, so he knows not to hurt Starfire."
"And what's that supposed to mean?" Robin asked intrigued, but covering it up by snarling.
Beast boy sweat dropped. "Well, you see, um it means, that well.." He scratched the back of his head, but Cyborg took over.
"It doesn't matter, let's just keep going, we aren't going to get anywhere by bickering, so c'mon y'all!"
After traveling for what seemed like forever, they finally came a cross a fork in the road. "Which way should we go?"
"This way." Raven said pointing to the left.
"We're off to see the wizard, the wonderful wizard of Oz!" Beast boy sang loudly.
"Beast boy?" The three titans' asked.
"Yeah?" He said brightly.
"Shut up."
"Okay."
"You guys, I think we have found what we are looking for."
A large mansion that was covered in vines and was halfway in pieces was in the middle of a small clearing.
"Is it just me, or does this thing make the whole place thundery and dark?" Beast boy asked as drops of rain drizzled on them.
"C'mon." Robin said, waving his hand for them to follow.
"You know all those scary movies where the zombies come out and suck your brains?" Beast boy asked Cyborg as he was clinging to him in fear.
"Yeah, your point?"
"This is how it always starts out. A dark mysterious mansion and a friend missing."
"You are just scaring yourself Beast boy." Raven said in her monotone voice. "Get over yourself."
Beast boy ran to her side. "You'll protect us with that swirly blacky thingy right?" He said as he turned himself into a black swirl.
She smiled a little. (*A LITTLE* ^_^) "Sure Beast boy, sure."
"Split up." Robin said as he kicked down the two front doors.
"Are you going to go look for Slade?" Cyborg asked.
Robin looked down. "Not this time."
Raven nodded and motioned for the rest to help her find Slade.
"I'm coming Starfire, keep yourself safe until then." Going down passages and trap doors, Robin made his way towards the highest room. The only problem was two robots were blocking his way.
"You there, you are not supposed to be here!" One robot yelled.
"This is it!" Robin yelled as he attacked both guards at one time. Kicking one guy in the chest and punching the other in the face they fell to the floor. Robin jammed his hard fist into one of the robot's chest and yanked out the wires holding the man together.
The other robot got up and jumped on him. Robin swung him around and threw him on the ground. He popped out his metal stick and was about to stab it in the robot's neck when he heard Starfire scream.
"Starfire!" He yelled. The robot took the opportunity to kick up and punch Robin's face. Tasting blood, he spit out the substance in his mouth and attacked.
"Hiyah!" Robin yelled before jumping up and kicking the man's face with brutal strength. The head jerked off and the wires that were keeping the head on snapped and went rolling along with it.
With immense physical strength, Robin blasted down the thick dying wall with his high kick.
Looking up, Starfire shouted with glee. "Robin!" She turned towards Devion who was on top of her on the bed and stuck out her tongue. "I told you he would come for me!"
"Your right, but like I said, he will be done for when I'm finished with him."
***********************************************************
"Where is Robin?" Slade's mysterious voice came from inside the shadows.
"He is saving Starfire you power hungry old fool!" Beast boy yelled.
Instead of throwing an insult back at him, Slade laughed.
"He's nutters, he's laughing at a time like this?" Beast boy said.
"And what time might this be?" Slade said coldly.
"Payback time." Cyborg growled cracking out his sonic cannon and aiming it in the shadows.
"It is now your time to die Slade." Raven said manipulating a piece of glass.
"Oh quite the contraire, I won't be dying tonight by your pathetic hands."
************************************************************
"Perhaps it's best if I finish this where we left off. GET OFF OF HER NOW!" Robin yelled pointing a finger in his direction. Slowly, Devion got off, but held her in his arms, making sure she was standing in front of him.
"What a pleasant surprise wood pecker, didn't think you were going to show. I almost had your girlfriend thinking you weren't going to make it."
"The name is Robin, and she's not my girlfriend."
"Oh?" Devion smiled devilishly. He started to nuzzle Starfire's neck as she cringed with fear. "She isn't is she?"
Robin eyed him with malice. "Prepare to die!" He yelled.
"Oh, but that is where you are wrong. You can't kill me, I am already dead." Devion started to rub Starfire's stomach and waist. "She feels so good, it's a shame you don't have her for yourself."
Robin produced a dangerously loud growl from deep inside him. "FUCK YOU!" He attacked. Devion threw Starfire to the bed and started to fight.
Star tried to get her energy balls to work by slapping her arm where he had shot the poison inside her. "C'mon, c'mon!" Suddenly a small green orb created in her fingers. "It's working!"
Kicking and punching merciless, Robin was kicking Devion's ass. Devion threw in a punch causing Robin to fall to the ground. "You are not human!" He yelled.
Robin got up. "I am, you are just weak!"
Devion's eyes started to glow red and the middle turned into snake eyes. Robin watched in horror as the teenager in front of him started to transform.
"I'll show you weak!" Devion hissed. He was almost in his complete transformation of a huge red and black cobra when a massive green energy ball exploded in his eyes. He then shot back down to human again.
"Starfire?" Robin said weakly. Starfire's eyes were glowing emerald, her hair was out and she flying near Devion. Huge energy balls, even more massive than before, were in her hands aiming at Devion.
Robin knocked Devion out with his metal stick and ran to Star who was floating back down slowly. He held on to her as she gripped on to him.
"I'm too weak." She said softly. Robin picked her up bridal style and ran through the mansion searching for his friends. He came to a large room swallowed in darkness.
He heard voices. "It is now your time to die Slade." He heard Raven's dark monotone voice.
"Oh quite the contraire, I won't be dying tonight by your pathetic hands." Slade said with amusement in his voice.
Robin stepped out from the shadows, Starfire had lighten up the room with a small green light. "You're right, but by mine."
Everyone turned around and faced Robin who was carrying Starfire in his arms.
Slade smiled. "Robin."
"Prepare to die Slade, and this time by me." Robin walked foreword and placed Starfire in Cyborg's arms.
Loud thumps were heard marching down the hall towards they way. "Teen Titans, I believe this is your end."
One hundred robots were all lined up in 5 rows and 25 down. "More like your end Slade." Robin snarled. Out of nowhere, Robin's foot had hit Slade across the face, cracking a little bit of the mask that he wore.
"Mistake Robin, very bad mistake." He growled. "Attack!"
The robots chased after Cyborg, Starfire, Raven and Beast boy. Beast boy transformed into a tyrannosaurus Rex and started munching on the steel robots. "They don't taste good at all!"
"Azarath Metrion Zynthos!" Raven yelled, flying up she sent her black swirls at one row of robots, holding them in place. One that had escaped shot her down with a shock gun. "Raven!" Beast boy yelled transforming back going to her twitching side.
"Raven you okay?" He cried. "Answer me!"
"Azarath Metrion Zynthos!" She screamed. Beast boy turned around and found a robot stuck inside the black swirl holding up and ax. Beast boy sweat dropped. "Thanks."
Cyborg was blasting the robots away while holding on to Starfire. "Come play with my 'wittle' 'fwend!'" He said in a Scar face voice, making the robots acknowledge his sonic cannon. "Haha!" He laughed as he blew the suckers away.
Slade on the other hand was pushing around Robin. Slade had him pinned to the ground, a gloved hand on his throat, pushing it farther down as Robin struggled to breathe.
"Remember your mother Robin?" He chuckled. "She was such a lovely woman, a beautiful lady." Robin growled.
"Her voice was like a dove singing about love."
"How do you know my mother?" Robin snarled, trying to rip Slade's fingers off of his neck.
"I knew her very well. She was so smart, but oh so foolish all the same." He laughed again. Robin was getting furious. "Leave her out of this! She has nothing to do with us!"
"Oh that is how you are wrong Robin, you see, she is our world!"
Robin, out of immense fury, punched Slade in the face, causing it fall to the ground in a clang.
Slade threw himself off of Robin and back into the shadows. Robin took in a deep breath and got up slowly. "Where are you Slade? Come out and fight!"
Slade's icy patient voice came. "Until another time Robin, until another time." A loud bang exploded and silver and gold smoke filled the dark room. Robin banged his fists against the ground and growled. "He got away!"
"Robin!" Came Starfire's cry for help.
"Hurry Robin, I can't hold off all these robots forever!" Raven grunted as she threw another black swirl at them.
Robin ran to his friends' side and was about to use gizmos from his belt when someone ordered the robots to stop. "Tick tock, tick tock, you better hurry and run out of here Robin, time is running out." Devion came out of the shadows holding his eye.
"Let's hurry Robin, I do not wish to stay here any longer!" Starfire cried, tugging on Robin's cloak and staring fearfully at Devion.
Robin glared daggers at the boy and flipped him off. He then pointed to him and whispered. "You are a goner."
"Let's go!" Beast boy called. "The place is going to explode, all these robots are destructible."
"Teen Titans, GO!" Robin yelled as he carried Starfire out of the crumbling mansion.
Nightfall hit the town and area around the Titan tower as they entered it. Beast boy ran to the couch and lay down on it. "What a day." He mumbled. "Time for some relaxation." He grabbed the game controller and called for Cyborg. "Cyborg, buddy oh pal!"
Cyborg grabbed his bag and headed towards the exit door. "Sorry B.B, I'm um, meeting someone." With that, he ran out the door.
Beast boy knitted his eyebrows. "Probably with Ayrasia."
"He's here for two seconds, then out the door." Robin chuckled. "He has some serious energy."
As Robin and Starfire walked out of the living room, Beast boy heard Raven call to him. "I'll play with you B.B, but don't get used to it." She smiled oddly. Beast boy returned the smile and looked at her as if she were a brand new person. "Prepare to lose!" He just had to ruin the moment!
Shutting the door behind him, Robin walked into Starfire's room. She had insisted that he let her down so she could stretch out her legs. Robin tugged at his cloak awkwardly, as there was a silence.
Starfire's back was to him but he was looking at her anyway. "Um Starfire, I'm sorry I wasn't there to protect you."
"Need not feel guilt Robin, I was careless, I should have blasted him when I had the chance."
He tugged at his cloak once more, and stood straight, in a brave position. "I'm still sorry."
Starfire turned around slowly and looked at him warmly. He returned it. "Robin, thank you for saving me, I am now in your dept."
Robin shook his head and laughed. "No you're not, friends save friends, through small or big troubles."
Starfire smiled brightly and ran to him. She embraced him in a tight hug and rested her head against his muscular chest. Hesitating at first, Robin gently wraps his arms around her, softly stroking her long hair.
"Thank you." She whispered looking into his eyes. Robin put his forehead on her forehead and stared deeply into hers. "Best friends forever?" She asked.
"Starfire I-" The gap between them started getting smaller as Robin leaned in for their first kiss. Ruining the moment, a small pebble hit her window, causing her to turn her head. She turned back around and smiled, getting out of his hug and walking over to see who had threw the rock.
Robin sighed then mumbled to himself almost silently. "Yeah, best friends." Walking over to her he leaned out the window finding Mammoth serenading a song to Star.
"What?" He said outraged.
