Chapter 5

Razor paced up and down the run down pawn shop and looked at the small fat man behind the counter.

"Come man they are 24 carrot solid gold rings" he said as he slammed his fists off the desk and glared at the man examining the rings. He occasionally looked up at Razor smiling at him.
"Sorry friend but they're just 18 carrots you stupid fuck" coughed the man as he put down his magnifying glass and looked at Razor. The smoke of his cigarette slowly dissipated into the already smoky atmosphere of the small pawn shop.

"Fine then what the leather purse" smiled Razor as he tossed a small leather purse onto the desk, " It's real leather" he purred as he watched the man pick it up.

"Hmmm seems it good condition" coughed the man as he looked at it, "Oh but wait what's this Razor blood?" he asked as he looked at Razor again. Razor just smiled slightly ad looked down at the floor. The man coughed and smiled as he put the purse down and opened the cash register.

"Ok I'll give you seventy bucks for the lot" he said as he started counting the money. Razor laughed at him and looked like he was ready to leave as the man put the money on the table. He grunted as he took the money from the man and glared at him.

"You cheap ass mother fucker" hissed Razor as he put the money in his pocket and walked towards the door. .
"It's been a pleasure doing business with you" smiled the man as he put the rest of the cash back in the register. Razor just grunted again as he turned and gave the man the finger before he walked out the door. The man just smiled as he watched Razor storm out of the front door

"Don't forget to close the dam gate this time you stupid asshole!" yelled the man as Razor walked out the door. Razor grumbled under his breath as he slammed the gate of the shop closed and locked the huge pad lock.

"Lucky I didn't stab your fat ass Shield" grumbled Razor as he waked towards a dark alleyway counting his money.

Cyborg stopped his squad car beside a small hot dog stand and smiled to himself.

"I think I've earned a break" he said as he stepped out of the car and walked towards the stand.

"What can get ya Vic?" asked the man behind the counter as he watched Cyborg approach.

"Give me hot dog with all the trimmings Mike" smiled Cyborg as he sat on one of the stools, placed his hat on the stool beside him and took out and light another cigarette.

"Good night?" asked Mike as he lifted up a hot dog in a set of tongs and gently placed inside two baps.

"You could say that" sighed Cyborg as he watched Mike squeeze some ketchup onto the hot dog, "How about some onions?" he asked as Mike handed him his meal. Mike smiled as he reached into a small bowl of onion shavings and sprinkled them onto the hot dog. Cyborg smiled as he handed Mike a five dollar bill and took the hot dog.

"Thanks man" smiled Cyborg before he tore a huge chunk out of the hot dog.

"Happy Devil's Night" smiled Mike as he took Cyborg's money and walked towards the register.

"Very funny" smiled Cyborg as he ate another piece of his hot dog.

"Hey Wraith where we going?" asked Sparky as he walked beside his leader. Wraith stopped and just looked at Sparky as he blew some of his cigar smoke into his face, making the smaller man cough slightly.

"We're not going anywhere" he said as he spit his cigar out and stamped it out, "I'm going to report to the boss your just along for the ride" he smiled before he continued to walk down the street. Sparky laughed stupidly to himself as he followed after Wraith.

"Uhh Wraith?" asked Sparky as he caught up with him.

"What!" growled Wraith as he looked directly at Sparky, making the him tremble slightly.

"Where is the boss?" he asked as he shied away from the bigger Wraith.

"Right here" smiled Wraith as he walked down a flight of stairs and entered a dark red door. Sparky looked slightly as he tried to read the large neon sign hanging above the stairwell.

"The Last Stop" smiled Sparky as he finished reading the sign, "The Last Stop I love this place, hey Wraith wait for me!" he cheered as he ran down the stairs and disappeared into the nightclub.

Robin climbed to the top of another building and crouched there for a while as he looked about for his new friend. Suddenly he heard a squawking as the crow flew past him and soared over the roof tops of the buildings. Robin smiled as he leapt off his perch and ran after the crow, leaping over chimneys and the gaps between the buildings. He couldn't believe that he wasn't even a little bit tired as he jumped over another wide gap and landed safely on the other side. His body felt different it felt stronger, faster, tougher. He stopped at the edge of one of the buildings and looked down, below him lay the another roof but it was an over thirty foot drop until he hit it. He looked up and saw the crow land and look at him.

"Here goes nothing" he whispered to himself as he closed his eyes and dropped off the edge. He landed on the next roof and rolled into a crouching position. He stood up and looked up at the drop he had just made. He didn't feel a single prang of pain as he shook his legs to make sure they where still working, in fact he felt great. The crow squawked again knocking him back to reality as it flew to the edge of the building and looked down into the alleyway below. Robin walked over to it and suddenly found himself seeing things through the eyes of the crow. He watched as a lone figure walked into the alley way putting what looked like money into his jacket pocket. The crow took off and flew into the alley way. The crow landed on top of a dumpster and looked at the figure entering the alleyway, he was dark skinned and had his hair in dreadlocks that where tied back. Robin raised his hand to his head and flinched as a memory of Raven being raped flashed through his head, he recognised the man as the person who had cut her with the knife as he raped her. He felt his anger boil in his stomach as Razor walked over to a burning trash can and lit a cigarette with the flames he looked and saw the crow perched on the dumpster. It suddenly took off and flew directly at him making him duck as it passed over his head.

"Stupid fucking pigeon" cursed Razor as he took a puff of his cigarette. Robin whispered something under his breath as he dropped over the side of the building and landed on his back on the ground below, he laughed psychotically as he felt the rain drops fall onto his face. His laughter echoed around the alley way making Razor look around him anxiously, he smiled as he saw Robin standing up and walking towards him.

"What the fuck you all painted up for ass clown?" laughed Razor as he saw Robin's face. Robin didn't reply as he slowly walked towards him.

"Halloween isn't until tomorrow night" grinned Razor as he pulled out one of his knives. Robin didn't stop and continued his approach. He leapt to one side as Razor kicked the burning trash can at him and tackled him to the ground, splashing Razor's face into a dark puddle.. Razor coughed as Robin lifted him out of a puddle and tossed him against the nearest wall. Robin stood back up and walked towards him and punched him in the stomach hard, making Razor cry out in pain. Razor replied by punching Robin in the face with all his strength, Robin smiled evilly as he shook the punch off and rammed his knee into Razor's gut. Razor coughed and gasped for air as he dropped his knife and slumped to his knees. Robin picked him back up and threw him against another wall, slamming Razor's back against the wall hard and fast.

"What the fuck you want man?" asked Razor as he kicked Robin in the chest, doing very little to the enraged Robin. Robin didn't reply as he grabbed Razor's coat and slammed him against the wall again. He smiled again as he tossed Razor across the alleyway into a dumpster, leaving a huge dent in the side of it. Robin ran at him and pressed his left arm across Razor's throat pinning him against the dumpster.

"MURDERER!" he screamed as he held his fist few inches away from Razor's bloody face.

"I didn't murder no one man, I don't even fucking know you man, what the fuck you want from me?" coughed Razor as he looked up at Robin. The crow landed on the dumpster and looked down at them.

"I want you tell me a story" Robin said as he pressed his arm even closer to Razor's throat.

"I don't know any fucking stories!" coughed Razor as he tried to push Robin off him.

"Listen I'm sure you'll remember it" Robin said, his voice sounded deranged and cold, "It's about a young man and women who lived in T shaped tower" he said as he watched Razor try and remember.

"Yeah man some dude some bitch whatever" replied Razor as he spit on Robin. Robin punched him in the face and held his head up.
"Raven her name was Raven" snarled Robin as he looked into Razor's eyes, "You raped her" he said as flashes of the raping ran through his mind, "You cut her" he said sadistically as the memory of Razor cutting her flashed through his mind.

"Yeah Raven I remember her. Yeah I shagged that bitches pink ass and she loved it" laughed Razor as he watched Robin relax his arm and fight to hold back his tears. He saw this opening and rammed his head into robin's knocking him off his body.

"Let me tell you about murder" smiled Razor as he picked up an old iron bar and smashed it against Robin's back repeatedly.

"It's fun" he said as he watched Robins back arch up in pain, "It's easy" he smiled as he pulled out one of his knives and took off his long black coat. he turned and watched as Robin crawl about on the ground, "And your about to be just another victim of it" he said as Robin used some old boxes top help himself stand back up. The crow squawked loudly as Razor pulled out another one of his knives.

"Let me introduce you my two little friends" he smiled as he watched Robin stand up and look at him, "They never miss" he said as he threw one of the knives at Robin. Robin ducked and watched as the knife vibrate as it slammed into an old brown door. Razor scowled as he threw his other knife at Robin, he watched in horror as Robin used his arm to bat the knife away and look at him.

"Try again" ordered Robin as he looked at Razor and smiled. Razor roared as he pulled out another knife and threw it at him. Robin caught the knife between his hands and looked at Razor, cocking his head to one side.

"Here catch" he smiled as he threw the knife back. Razor couldn't move away in time and screamed in pain as the knife slammed into his right shoulder. He winced in pain as Robin walked up to him and looked into his eyes.

"We're all victims in the end" he said, his voice seemed to be completely void of emotion as he pulled the knife out and stabbed it deep into Razor's chest.
