I know whenever I start a story, I never finish. My track record is awful. However, for the first time I outlined this story, so I know EXACTLY where is it going, and I promise you that I will finish this.
Since I outlined this, I have most of the ideas for the story in my head, but if you have any suggestions, please include them in reviews!
I am going to mix some facts from the comics into this story, but it's mostly based on the current cartoon.
Enjoy! And remember, TEEN TITANS, sadly, doesn't belong to me. If it did, I'd be a character on the show! : )
Starfire flared at Slade. She put her hair into a bun and shoved it under her hat, disgusted with it.
"You will pay for this!"
Slade laughed. "The Titans are oblivious. My plan is working brilliantly! Robin won't know what hit him. They're doomed!"
Starfire cast her eyes downward. She was so ashamed and upset that she was stuck here. She couldn't do anything, especially help her friends. She left the room and a smiling Slade. His plan was working like a dream, and he knew it.
A few minutes later, a figure emerged from the shadows.
"You're finally ready! Excellent!"
He put a cordless microphone on Night's collar. He then put the microphone pack in the secret black pocket of Night's jacket. (A/N: Yeah Cyborg! He was right!)
"You know what to do, right?"
"Yes," Night answered, grimly. He wouldn't even look at Slade.
"Perfect. Absolutely perfect."

Robin sat on the rooftop of the Tower. He sighed as the warm night breeze swept through his hair. By now all of the Titans were asleep. He had tried doing research on their new enemy, but he just came up with nothing – besides the nightly news reports that told of the stolen telescope and how the Titans had been defeated for once in their lives. The newscasters had named the new delinquent "Night", since he dressed in black and was dark and mysterious. That was how the Titans came to call their enemy "Night".
Being on the roof made Robin think of Starfire. He wondered where she was and prayed she was all right. He remembered all the times he and Starfire sat on the roof, gazing at the stars. He remembered . . .
Suddenly, Robin felt as though he was being watched. He spun around to see the one person he'd been thinking of.
He jumped into a fighting stance.
"Robin, I do not wish to fight . . ." said Night, repeated from their previous fight. Night clutched his [own] neck, but Robin didn't have time to notice this.
"Let me guess," Robin replied, with venom lacing his words. "You wish to kill me instead, right? Believe me, I've heard enough corny villain comebacks in all my years, all right? However, before we fight, I want . . ."
"As I said, I am not here to fight," Night answered, forcefully. It shut Robin up long enough to accomplish the mission he was sent on. "I am merely sent here as a messenger for Slade. Here . . ."
Night tossed him a small device. Against his better judgment, Robin caught it was ease. It was spherical, and the square screen on the top flickered to life.
"Robin, we meet again."
The Boy Wonder gritted his teeth. "SLADE!"
Slade laughed. "Robin – ever bitter, I see. I'd expect nothing lessfrom my future apprentice . . ."
"Slade, for the last time, I . . ."
"No, Robin. Not today. You see, every time you disobey me, your little girlfriend will be punished."
"What are you . . .?!"
The screen flashed to a picture of Starfire, chained to a wall. Her clothes looked dirty and ripped, and she was unconscious. Her eyes were closed, but her cheeks were tear stained. Robin's stomach did a flip flop.
"No . . .!" he cried. "Star!"
Night's eye brows rose from behind the sunglasses he sported. "What?!" He looked at the screen. "How can that be?! That is not true!" he cried, clutching his neck, tighter. "Robin, do not believe him! It is a trap!"
Slade grew furious. "Night! What are you talking about?! Stop lying!"
Robin looked at the boy who was currently in back of him. He evaluated the situation. Had Night ever harmed him or any of the Titans? No. Had he ever really fought them? No. Perhaps he knew of Starfire and her whereabouts? It was worth a try . . .
Slade saw Robin's mind working. "Robin . . ."
"No, Slade. Not today. Uh . . . Night . . . Can you . . . ?"
Slade yelled, but none of it was audible above Night's screams of pain as he was zapped by a device planted on him. Robin ran to help him up, when Slade's words caught his attention.
"Robin, how can you trust him? Don't you notice what is around his neck?!"
Robin noticed something glittering in the night around Night's neck. He had been clutching it the whole time. But what . . .?
"Star's necklace! You have Star's necklace!"
The throat of the Titan's leader closed. He started sweating. This Night boy couldn't be trusted, and of course, Slade couldn't be trusted. But if that were the case, who should he trust in the end?
"So you see, Robin, Night has been lying to you. Of course he knows were Starfire is, as do I. Unlike him, I will give you Starfire, as long as you become my apprentice. You must complete one task for me to prove your loyalty, and then Starfire is all yours . . ."
"Alive?"
"It's up to you Robin. Her fate is in your hands."
"Will she be ok?!"
"Robin, her fate is in your hands. That's all you need to know. "
Robin was not satisfied with the answer, but before he could protest, Slade signed off the screen as Night yelled a clear "Noooo!" through the silent air. He was about to run off, when Robin caught his leg, hoping to get more information. The boy tripped, and his sunglasses flew off. Robin spun him around and gasped.
Night's eyes were extremely big and a bright shade of aqua. They were a bright mix between blue and green. The color was so intense that they seemed unnatural. They were such awe striking eyes, and they were very familiar. Where had he seen eyes like that before?
Robin was so entranced in the eyes that he didn't realize Night getting up until he was gone.
A/N: I want to thank everyone SO much for reading this story and reviewing. 5 reviews! I feel special! : ) If there are any typos, I apologize. Also, if Slade seems OOC, I'm SO sorry! I'm not really good with Slade. I only just started watching Teen Titans, and he's the only character I don't seem to know a lot about.
Also, I love the reviews I've been getting so far. Let me just warn you, this story is full of twists, so you never know what could happen. Keep those predictions coming! I'm predicting this story will have about two to three more chapters. Hope you enjoyed this! Review, and I'll see ya soon!
Once again, THANK YOU!
