Slade lunged towards Robin who quickly put down the cloth sack he was holding and ran towards Slade with a cry of fury. He threw a punch at Slade's face but he professionally blocked. Slade kicked the feet out from under him and Robin fell hard on his elbow; but he got up again.

Robin dodged a few more punches from Slade and then he took a few steps back; Slade did the same.

"When will you learn Robin," Slade said taking a knife out of his belt. "When will you learn that you can't win?" He threw the knife forcefully at Robins head.

It sliced through the side of Robin's head, above his right ear. He fell to the ground blood pouring from the gash. Robin didn't care about the pain all he cared about was hurting Slade a much as possible. He wanted revenge on Slade for all the pain that was inflicted on him over the years.

Robin got unsteadily to his feet and charged at Slade. He dodged a punch and managed to get behind Slade for a moment. He aimed a blow at Slade's spinal cord.

Slade gasped in surprise because he didn't feel the pain from the blow but a sharp pain.........like a needle. When he turned around he saw a stony faced Robin with a triumphant look in his eyes.........he was holding an empty hypodermic needle.

"How........." Slade said struck dumb that a boy would be able to defeat him. He fell to the floor as the poison took effect.

"I won," Robin said bending down so those words would be the last words Slade would hear. "I beat you."

A few minutes later Slade was dead.

Robin just stood there staring at his fallen foe; holding his severely bleeding head.

He had done it.

Slade was dead.

He was free.

Robin hurried and picked up his bag and ran down the hall to where Beast Boy was being held.

'Beast Boy hang on,' Robin thought. 'Don't die. Please don't. I'm coming.'

He entered the dungeon like room and unhooked Beast Boy from the machine. He took out the jar of red liquid from his bag and poured some carefully on the chains. The liquid burned through the metal and caught Beast Boy as he fell foreword off the wall. He laid him gently on the ground and took out the other needle, filled it with yellow liquid, and injected it into his arm. He didn't stir. Robin hit a button on his gloved hands and flames flew out of his glove. The flames started to burn down the hideout.

He lifted his friend gently and ran out of the hideout just as it was engulfed in flames.

Robin had been running for about ten minutes when Beast Boy started to stir.

"Robin?" he croaked.

"Beast Boy!" Robin exclaimed. "Oh god I thought you were dead."

"So did I. What happened to you?" he asked as he saw the deep gash on his friends head.

"Slade's dead," was all Robin said.

"Whoa," Beast Boy said quietly. "I'm dizzy. It's getting dark again."

"Rest Beast Boy, I'll keep you safe."

Beast Boy's eyes closed and his breathing was ragged. Robin knew that he had to get him to the tower. The medicine he gave him had helped him but he needed to get him to the tower.

He ran and ran and ran. He ran until he reached the harbor and saw the giant "T" tower shining out into the night. He spotted a small two person motorboat and quickly deposited Beast Boy into it. He tied the cloth sack to his belt and then pushed the boat off the shore, into the water, then quickly hopped inside.

Robin pulled the string to start the boat when a sudden wave of dizziness overtook him. It was probably from all the blood he lost from the gash on his head. He couldn't stop now , he had to save Beast Boy.

He pulled the cord again and the engine roared to life.

"Well at least the boat works," he muttered. Then the boat zoomed off into the darkness.

~*~*~*~*

It was so dark out that Robin couldn't see anything.........there were rocks close to shore. Robin just remembered that fact when he saw a sharp protrusion in the harbor that he thought was part of the night.

He had no time to turn the boat or even yell. The bow of the boat smashed into a huge rock and Robin flew out of the boat directly into the rock. He heard and felt his shoulder shatter. Then everything went as dark as the moonless night.
