Chapter 9 Escaped then Captured Again
Slade shoved Robin into a room and Robin forgot to duck-roll and he almost slammed into a wooden chair by mistake. Before Robin got his head on right, the door behind him quickly closed and Robin heard it get locked.
Robin put his ear to the door and heard Slade say, "You four guard this door and if he gets out you are all dead."
"Yes sir," one of the followers said and he heard Slade walk off. Robin listened some more, but nothing was heard. He took a step away from the door and grunted in frustration.
Robin soon found out that he was put in a lab of some sort. There were some glass bowls, beakers, and cups filled with dried up liquid. Robin became interested in the room and he walked around it to past the time. He found a few slats with unknown formulas on them. He found all kinds of stuff in the place, but the most thing that stood out was a scary thing.
Robin was going around tables with stuff on them. He finally came to rock tables and started go down and while looking into a glass beaker his shoe hit something. He looked down and what he saw made him jump five feet away and gasp.
After his heart slowed down once more, Robin picked up the thing that he almost stepped on. It was a skull of a human. Someone had died here. Robin was kind of spooked about it, but tried to calm himself down.
"Thorn Beak said that they almost found the cure for their sickness," Robin thought out loud. "The monks of Half-Moon. Hmmmm." He put the skull down on the table next to him and crossed his arms in front of him in deep thought.
"If only I had that map," he said finally after a while of thinking. "It said something about a star. But if the monks found the cure but died right before they got it to anyone then this must be the place they found it. And if this is the place they found it then it has to still be here." This now put a smile to Robin's face.
Robin searched high and low in the lab place for an hour or two, but found nothing. He finally sat down on the cold hard floor with now a frown. He rested his back to the left wall of the door with a huge sigh.
Crack! Robin sat up and looked at the wall behind him. It was cracked a little. Robin pushed it more and found out that the rocks had to be hollow and it was a passageway to a dark unknown. He did not even hesitate for a second and went into the little hole in the wall.
Robin went through a twisty tunnel and ended up at the bottom of the stairway. He pushed some rocks away and peaked out of a tiny hole to make sure no one was there. He was only a few feet to the double wooden doors that lead to stain-glass room. He was home free. No guard was there.
Robin pushed the rock away carefully and sneaked to the door as silent as a mouse. He got the door and slowly opened it a little. His heart fell as he saw Slade and Mika looking over a map in the middle of the room. He had no chance now, but at least he could listen onto their conversation.
"It says something about some stupid star!" Mika said while pointing to the map. "This riddle makes no sense."
Slade kept silent for a wile and finally said, "Give me a few minutes and I might get it. This sickness slows down your brain. It's not easy."
"Well hurry up!" Mika said angry. "If you don't get the cure soon you will be dead, and where will I be? Dead! Without you there people will take over and I will be cut or killed because people now hate me."
"I know," Slade said while still looking at the map. "But this is right now not all about you."
"Right now I don't care!" Mika yelled and her voice echoed around the huge room. "So far I've been doing everything for you. Do something for me and I'll take off, but right now I'm hanging on the end of my rope. Now..."
Slade grabbed Mika's arm with extreme force and squeezed. She winced a little and stopped talking.
"Without me you would be lost," Slade said calmly. "Without you I would not be dieing right now. You gave me this sickness, now you show me how to get the cure." He let go her arm and she rubbed it a few times.
"I did not want to hurt you, or the Teen Titans," Mika said while stepping away from Slade. "You did not give me a choice if I wanted to give the sickness I found to the Titans. I don't want to hurt anyone, but you made me. After I make sure everything is back to the way it was then I'm out of here."
Robin moved away from the door to think some more. He was going to faint again. He hated the feeling.
"You know you need me, Mika," Slade said and suddenly the door opened, and the back of it crushed Robin.
"OUCH!" Robin yelled by mistake and rubbed his poor nose that got smashed. In two seconds Mika and Slade were standing in front of him with unhappy faces. Robin looked up at them and gave a weak smile then blacked out.
