Raven's p.o.v.
I had to think. There had to be something. Something to get Jinx's attention.
I could try letting all my emotions out. I wondered if that bubble could handle all the energy. If it did then I had sentenced everyone to death. I decided it wasn't worth the risk.
I looked back at the fight. They had moved slightly into shadow. Robin looked worn. His face shown a tired yet infuriated look. Slade was calm as always. He was tiring Robin out.
They jumped at each other. They were perfectly equal in their hits. Slade got one on Robin's stomach. I felt myself drip out more power for the bubble. Robin jumped back to his feet. With the same speed he dodged a kick and kicked Slade across the face.
They hit each other and blocked, equal in strength. It was kind of hard to imagine Robin was Slade's equal.
I decided to try something.
I watched Slade. As the next moment he hit a wall I tugged hard on the chains. I couldn't help the yelp that escaped my lips. It came out muffled. Both of them looked over. I smiled at Slade.
Out of the corner of my eye I could see Robin. More concerned. I shot him a quick look. I hoped he understood to stay where he was.
I pulled again cringing as crimson blood slipped down my forearm. Slade raised an eyebrow at me. I prayed a quick second keeping an eerie smile on my face.
"Make sure she doesn't kill herself Jinx, at least not yet," He cackled and turned back to Robin. Their fight took off right where they had stopped. They circled each other like tigers and then leapt off at each other.
I let my smile drop and looked toward the shadows. The pink girl emerged. Her attention was split now. She had to watch me and keep concentration for the bubble.
"Slade I don't think-" She tried to get a hold of him. She had walked halfway across the room, halfway between her conjure and me. Her expression was strained and worried. Her hands stayed in front of her held up as if she were physically holding the bubble from disappearing.
"That's right you don't think you just listen!" Slade roared charging at Robin. I could already see a limp in Robin's walk. I wondered if he could hold up in his condition.
Blackness escaped me being pulled through the chains. I watched Jinx turn her attention to the bubble excepting the energy. I almost smiled happily. This was some kind of plan after all.
I tugged the chains. Besides the fighting that was the most apparent sound in the room.
"Stop her," Slade demanded keeping up dodging Robin's hits. They were now doing almost an elaborate dance. Jump forward, hit, miss, jump back, and then the other tried.
Jinx spun around to get closer to me. I stopped pulling. My body ached horribly. I could feel the coldness of the blood dry on my skin. I hoped Robin wasn't worried; I didn't need him as a big factor to worry about as well.
She stopped and watched me a second. Her pigtails flung around her as she looked back and forth. Between the bubble and me.
Gasping she realized what was going on. It was too late. I had my eyes glued to Robin and Slade's fight. I tugged more on my chains. Jinx was stuck in the middle. Unsure of what to do. Maybe she had never done any real planning by herself. Robin got a hard kick to the head.
He flew across the room hitting the television wall. Jinx had to shriek back closer to me to avoid getting hit. I heard glass shatter. It fell down around Robin.
I pushed it out. Everything I had. Energy crackled around me as black swam in my vision. I screamed under the bonds and it came as a muffled yelp. I felt everything being absorbed by the chains.
I let it all go. All those restraints. All those times I wanted to feel emotion. They released into black tendrils. Massive amounts crossed over the ceiling and into the bubble. I watched then absentmindedly still releasing my energy. It was almost amusing to see those wires covered in my own power. It surprised me how much there was.
Jinx yelped. I could see her fighting for some kind of control. She was mighty far from her spell. You could tell as she raised her arms further up. It was harder to control something she was a distance from.
I had more energy then she could ever handle. I gritted my teeth letting everything flow from me. I began to feel woozy. No longer were my wrists healing. I didn't have the energy.
I slumped watching Jinx try to get closer to her work. Every step she took caused her to loose concentration. The bubble would blink in and out. Each time a little of my power vanished out of the bubble and into the air.
I saw the bubble was almost full. I was satisfied with myself. There was more energy then anyone would ever need there. More than anyone beside myself could handle. I was tiring rapidly.
Slade was yelling now and he glared deadly at me. I swallowed and allowed my eyes to close. Too much at once. I felt myself loose consciousness. But that wasn't the end.
Everything around me was dark. I heard people talking. People screaming and pleading. Except it was in my head.
It was Slade's voice. I looked around. Nothing was there. I was hearing his thoughts in my head? Mentally I groaned. Empath remember? But I had never heard voices before, only brief images. Did this have anything to do with Jinx's curse?
That was Robin's voice. It trailed off. I tried to find it desperately. It was no use.
I heard a loud shrieking; I assumed it to be Jinx.
I'll kill her.
Slade's voice got louder hissing in my mind. He sounded out of his mind, or more so than usual.
No Slade! Robin's voice came back. He sounded terrified. Wh- was Slade going to kill me? And I was just going to stay in this unconsciousness and let it happen?
I fought. I was so tired. My wrists and ankle ached most painfully. I had no energy to heal them. I brought myself out of sleep. My eyes still closed. I didn't feel I had the energy to even open them. If not for the chains I would have been slumped on the floor.
I felt a warm breath on my face. I feared the worst. I opened my eyes barely.
Slade's face was right in front of my face. It was darker in the room, how long had I been inside my head? Slade had an evil glimmer in his eye, like a crazed deadly look. I had no doubt he would kill me.
I stole a look behind him. Robin laid disturbingly still. Glass from the televisions covered and shattered around him. I felt a sickly lurch from my stomach. I hadn't eaten in a while, but surely if I had I would have thrown up. His figure was bloody, it made me desperate to save him.
Jinx was on the ground as well. She looked cut up. Was she thrown into the TVs as well? Had Slade lost his sensible mind?
That question really didn't need an answer.
I saw the bubble across the room. It had shrunken incredibly to about the size of a bowling ball. Black swirled around inside.
"I can't have it perfect," Slade's dark voice brought my attention back to him. I felt a pressure on my throat. Lightly I pulled the chains. Still secure.
"But I will kill you, then Robin. Then the rest of you annoying brats. But you, I will have the most satisfaction killing."
He grinned pulling his face closer to mine. I pushed back against the wall. It was most uncomfortable. Not to mention the fact of more sharp pressure to my neck. I glared at him pulling deeply on my chains.
He laughed. He brought his other hand up. I watched him wearily. He touched a gloved hand to my face holding my chin. His fingers slid across my skin. I felt my skin crawl and my anger burn. I wished I actually had lasers from my eyes like Star. My ferocity of my stare would have sent him far past hell by now.
"Poor little bird," He cooed. My attention was redirected. There was a shadow moving behind him.
"Robin…"
My voice came out clearly. My bond had been taken off. Slade's hand had stopped moving as he stared horrified at me. His fingers were painfully on my lips and a blade was quickly biting through my skin.
I didn't swallow. I didn't breathe or move at all. My total concentration was on the blade. Any movement could move it in too deep. My energy had been wasted overloading Jinx. I wouldn't be able to heal my own wounds.
"Do it Robin, and I'll kill her," Slade's voice was too close to me. Why had I said anything? I mentally bashed myself about. Robin was barely standing just in the shadows. A metal pole glimmered in his hands.
All it would take is one hit and Slade would be out cold. Robin wouldn't do it.
"Hit him," I urged. I regretted talking immediately. I felt a liquid run softly down my throat. Just short of a main vein.
Robin stumbled forward. I could see him fully now. He was cut all over, most were not too deep. There was one on his leg that he had been favoring. It still bled. His mask had almost come off; his skin was dirty and stuck with blood. Robin's hair was a pushed back mess.
Yet he stood there, trying to save me. His knuckled were ghostly white gripping the metal. It must have hurt. He watched me. I wished I could have seen his eyes.
Almost upon hearing my request Robin raised an arm. He did the most senseless thing and pulled off his torn ragged mask. Readably brown eyes now watched me. His handsome features looked finished now that I had seen his eyes.
He looked down at Slade. He was thinking. I was out of ideas. I didn't need to be distracted by thinking anyway.
Slade moved his hand off my face. I didn't move, his blade was still settled in the most dangerous of places. I looked into his eye. He looked to have come up with a plan. Malice looked at me while he grinned.
I opened my mouth to say something. Slade's instant reaction was to clamp his hand over my mouth.
"Ultimate suffering my dear," He had leaned in and whispered it to my ear. His voice was of death. He could tell I wasn't afraid to die. He was going for the next best thing.
I couldn't do anything. Sadistically smiling quickly he whirled around taking the blade off me. His hand picked up from my mouth and I screamed. It resounded through the entire empty building, doing no good. In a glint of metal Robin was caught off guard.
[I know it sounds so dark. Hope it doesn't offend anyone. But I like it, review and tell me what you all think!
And I added her as an empath. Some kind of magnified result of Jinx's curse.]
