A/N: I have a few things to say before this chapter. One, someone said that Slade is too nice in this fic. Well, the reason is if Slade wants Robin to start trusting him and getting used to him then he has to be a little bit nicer. But his niceness is ending soon though. He's going to come down hard on Robin I think in this chapter if I get to it. I hope you like this chapter and please send a review. Thanks!

Chapter 5

Robin looked at the four faces all around him. They still could not see him, but they knew he was there. Robin let go of his fist and went visible and he heard his friends gasp when they saw him.

"Robin?" Starfire asked in shock.

"We don't want to fight you, Robin," Cyborg said while the four circled him and started to come in closer to him. "But we have to and we will."

Suddenly a loud blast of sound shot through Robin's ear and Robin heard Slade yell, "If you talk to them you and that rat of yours is dead! Now fight!"

Robin took that as his cue. He jumped in the air and flipped over Beast Boy and grabbed him by his shoulders to use as a shield. Cyborg was just then throwing a punch when suddenly Beast Boy replaced Robin. Raven already knew what was going on and used her dark powers to hold onto Cyborg's arm and stop him from hitting Beast Boy.

Starfire shot some starbolts at Robin's feet and Robin used his cord on his belt to get himself to the rafters above them. As he was flying up there he threw an ice discus down at Beast Boy. The poor changeling was frozen in place. You could see the panic in his face.

Robin landed on a metal raft and crouched down to not get hit by more starbolts.

"Robin!" Slade yelled into Robin's ear.

"What?" Robin said calmly, but inside him he was barely able to get out the words.

"I've been too nice to you all this time," Slade said. "And when you finally have to do something more for me you can't do it. Well...suck it up! If you don't get the gadget in FIVE minutes and out of the Tower by that time I'm not giving you any sleep till you are done with your next mission. Now hurry!"

"WHAT?!" yelled Enzo. He heard the whole thing. "That could kill you." Robin just gave the animal on his shoulder a worried glance. Then Robin got down to busyness and the wheels in his started to turn fast.

The metal he was on started to turn black and bend with Raven's mind powers. Robin had to jump to different rafts to not fall.

"If I can just only get something to distract them," mumbled then looked up at Enzo with an evil smile.

Enzo frowned as he saw Robin smile. "Ohhh no!" he yelled at Robin. "I'm NOT going down there to get blasted to bits by that alien girl. There is no way you're making me..."

Robin had no time. He cut Enzo right in the middle of his sentence and threw him off his shoulder down at Cyborg. "Don't worry," Robin said before letting go, "I know they will catch you." He then let Enzo go.

"I'm going to kill you when we get out of here!" Enzo yelled as he fell. Robin just waved a short good-bye and turned invisible. He was gone.

Starfire caught Enzo in the middle of his falling. When she caught him she looked up and searched for Robin, but found nothing. She flew down to the ground and the others were as lost as her. Cyborg was trying to get Beast Boy out of the ice around him and Raven was still searching for Robin.

Raven stared madly at Enzo and asked, "What is that?"

"It's a giant rat that fell just as Robin disappeared," Starfire answered.

"Whoa now!" Enzo yelled and jumped out of Starfire's hands. Scared, she backed away. Raven just raised an eyebrow. "I'm NOT a rat," Enzo said and threw his hands into the air. Robin wanted him to stall time and that was just what he was going to do.

"EEEEEEEE!" Starfire screamed and blasted her starbolts at Enzo. But before the bolts could get to the animal Raven had quickly put up a shield to stop them from hurting Enzo. "The rat talks!"

When the dust from the starbolts faded the two girls saw Enzo with his arms over his head to protect himself. He opened one eye and looked around and saw it was safe and slowly put down his hands.

"We don't need another animal in this house," Cyborg muttered as the four stared down at Enzo. "Beast Boy is enough." Beast Boy glared at Cyborg, but said nothing.

"Look," Enzo said as he had to crank his neck just to see the humans' faces, "I'm an alien and NOT a rat. Get that into your heads." The four just stared down at him as he kept looking up. "You guys must be a tough crowd."

"Where is Robin and why is he even here?" Raven asked. Enzo looked over to her and frowned.

"Sorry, but I can't help you there," he said.

Raven nodded over to Cyborg and Enzo saw his laser cannon start to fire up. Enzo freaked. Sweat started to go down him forehead and his fur was making him hot.

"Run that by us again," Raven said and the Titans smiled down at Enzo.


Robin found the room fast and got to the gadget that was a little black box with buttons all over it with a tiny screen that was blank. He hesitated on destroying Cyborg's work, but still did it though. Robin turned around, but was faced with another problem. His friends had taken out the elevator. He was going to have to get out of there the hard way.

Robin got to the elevator door and pushed a button to open it. There was no response, so Robin just pried the door open and saw that the elevator was down a little ways. His friends had done this on purpose.

Robin looked to a clock on the wall of Cyborg's room and saw that he only had 3 minutes to get out of the Tower with the gadget. Robin had to work fast or he was dead.

Robin jumped onto the top of the elevator and right when he landed it went black and started to rise. Robin braced himself as the elevator started to fly up. Right before it crashed into the ceiling of the shaft the elevator dropped and Robin had the roller coaster feeling in his stomach as he dropped.

Now Robin knew this was going to happen. He knew when Raven was making the elevator go up he could not be able to open the escape door. But when he was going down it would be too easy. He flipped the switch and the tiny door flew open. Robin dropped in and found that Cyborg had been in there the whole time.

Cyborg saw the gadget and frowned at Robin and said, "You can't be stealing that, Robin. You know how much I've been working on it."

The elevator came to halt and the two in the elevator almost fell to the ground. Robin went to punch Cyborg, but he ducked. It was what Robin wanted though. He flew over Cyborg and hit the button that opened the door.

Robin ran out of the elevator and pressed the outside button that closed the door and took the elevator to the bottom floor. Bye- bye Cyborg. Robin turned and saw Starfire and Beast Boy standing there with frowns. Robin had now less than 2 minutes to get out of there.

Robin rolled out of the way of some starbolts and dodged a green hawk. He just wanted to get out. He was a few steps from the door and getting free when something popped into his mind and made him groan. Enzo.

Robin spun around and saw that Star, BB, and Raven were now there. Raven had Enzo tightly held in her hands. They all looked at Robin with pleading eyes. Enzo's was the most pleading. Right now he was in the hands of Raven. This was just not his day.

Robin went invisible and watched as his friends tried to find him.

"He's gone!" Starfire said while feeling with her hands in the air as if he was invisible, which he was.

"Where is he?" Raven asked Enzo. Right when Enzo opened his mouth he was stolen out of her hands. The three tried the best they could to get Robin, but whatever he touched disappeared with him, so Enzo was gone. They were both gone.

Robin ran away from the tower and stopped when he came to the beach. He went visible and sat down on the sand while breathing hard. He glanced back up at Enzo and the animal gave a weak smile to boost Robin up. It did not work.

Enzo then just tried talking. "Were you crazy when you dropped me? They made me tell..."

Robin grabbed Enzo's mouth and looked at him in the eyes to shut him up. Enzo just went quiet till Robin got up off the sand and said to Slade, "I got the gadget. Now what?"

"Get over here and hurry," Slade said. "Now was that so hard?"

"Harder than you would think," Robin muttered as he walked away from the tower with tons of emotions swimming all around in his head. When was this going to end?

A/N: This chapter did not have that much action, but the next ones will have some. Please give a review. Thanks!
