False
The Titans walked down a narrow passageway, which led to a door. Cyborg messed with the keypad. A door opened that lead to vast hive like hallway. "Quiet everyone we don't want to let them know were here." He whispered
Suddenly a flashing red light went off followed by a screeching alarm. "Good going Cyborg." Beast Boy said.
Out of walls popped lasers, whirling blades, and electric shockers. Robots appeared out of nowhere from the floor and the door locked behind them.
"What do we do now?" Raven asked
"We fight. Teen Titans go!" Dark Robin shouted before anyone could stop him he launched himself at the nearest robot. He took it out and moved on to the next one.
"You heard the man get rid of them. Boyaah!" Cyborg said blasting away one of the guns. Starfire flew up to the ceiling and tackled the blades. Meanwhile Raven chanted her magic spell, which swept through the room taking care of the lasers. Beast Boy changed into a T-rex and went after the shockers.
"We have to keep pressing onward. They're trying to delay us. We can't let that happen." Dark Robin called out as another round of robots appeared. These ones were a lot more durable than the last bunch.
"How do you propose we do that hey? Just ask them nicely to stop attacking us." Beast Boy yelled while he was between forms.
"Whatever we do we have to do it now. We have to make it to the bottom level. That's were I bet Robin is. Now come on I see the stairs to the next level." Raven shouted levitating over the mess before her.
"Why can't you just teleport us there or take an elevator down to the lower levels?" Starfire asked landing. She had finally disabled the last of the blades.
"My sensors say this place is creating a damping field. Raven can't teleport through it. My guess is they've also cut the power to the elevators so if we want to get to Robin we have to walk. Come on the stairs our behind this door." Cyborg said. He led the group to a door marked stairs. Pulling it open the team was sucked through the door by a whirlwind and deposited on the next level.
"Man I really am starting to lose my temper!" Dark Robin said picking himself up.
"Like you haven't already?" Beast Boy muttered.
"I'll pretend I didn't hear that. Come on you babies lets go." Dark Robin commented snotty as he began walking down the darken passage. Suddenly he tripped a wire and went sprawling.
"Dark Robin look out!" Starfire shouted as the floor opened up and he started falling towards a bunch of sharp spikes. "Help!"
Suddenly he found himself incased in a black bubble and being raised to safety.
"You can thank me later. That was extremely foolish." Raven told him as she uncermonicly dropped him. He rubbed his butt and glared at her. "I didn't need your help."
"Then I imagined you screaming for help? Sorry I don't think so. I may be dark and moody but I don't lie." Raven said folding her arms in defiance. Dark Robin didn't scare her so much anymore.
"Let me do a quick scan. Man this entire floor is layered with booby traps." Cyborg said lowering his arm.
"Is there anyway to deactivate them?" Starfire asked.
"Not unless you know the code and have a security card. We have neither. The best we can do is to try an avoid tripping the traps." Cyborg reported
"Can't we just fly over the floor?" Beast Boy asked. He was very impatient.
"I think BB there are motion detectors in the ceiling which would detect flying objects. So flying is out. Lets go now." Dark Robin said pushing past Beast Boy. They stared at him and pulled him back. "Cyborg leads and you follow." Raven told him as they started
While the Titans were trying to make their way through Level Two Brother Blood was adjusting his machine. "You know Robin who ever taught you must have been a genius when it comes to mental discipline. I have barely made a dent in your mental shields and I have only touched the tip of the iceberg which is your mind." Brother Blood said as he continued to adjust the machine.
"Why don't you let me go? I'll never turn evil. Your machine may have found something's about me but you know absolutely nothing about me." Robin said. Truth was these torture sessions were draining him. He didn't know how much longer he could hold out.
"I can't wait to test the best feature on my extractor. This is why it took ten years to perfect. I can implant in your mind a false memory by altering ones you have. I just love messing with peoples heads don't you?" Brother Blood crowed.
Robin refused to answer him. He could sense through the link that Dark Robin was near. He could only hope that the Titans would reach him before Brother Blood caused permanent brain damage.
The world in front of his eyes leaped again as all the colors of the rainbow leaped forward towards him. He landed with a soft thud and glanced around. All around him he could see huge gears and darkness. The room was badly lit. Looking down he saw he was wearing his Slade outfit. Suddenly his vision changed like someone was messing with the controls on a TV.
Blinking a few times to clear his eyes he looked again. Now he was wearing a tight fitting black body suit with yellow octagons running down the arms. His crest was that of the HIVES. Turning behind him he saw the Trio.
"Wouldn't this suit your needs better? A team you could mold and shape. Not some team that hold you back?" Brother Blood voice filled his mind.
The scene shifted from to one of the Titans training runs. Suddenly he was in battle simulation at the HIVE having the time of his life. Dodging lasers, fighting robots, destroying defense systems. He made it to the finish line and smiled. "Wasn't that more of the work out you like?" Brother Blood voice asked echoing off the walls.
His memory changed again to this time him standing next to Brother Blood. "You are the best criminal master mind ever. Your darker side has shown that your light side is barely containing the growing evil inside you. Just admit the truth and I can set you free. No more being mocked by your friends, all the power, all the glory, all the wealth will be in your grasp. Its what you desire so why not take it my young lieutenant?" Brother Blood said to him. He placed a hand on his shoulder and showed him images of what they could do together. Robin jerked away from him.
"NO! I'm one of the good guys. Star the Spirit of Justice chose me to protect Earth and that's what I'm going to do! This crystal I wear is a sign I work for her and not the side of evil." Robin yelled at him. Concentrating hard he pushed Brother Blood out of his mind forcefully with the aid of his crystal.
"Ahh! What incredible power. You may have thrown me out Robin but it has cost you dearly. I will break you and one way or another you will join the ranks of evil tonight or you will die. While I was in your mind I discovered something. Your subconcusses is keeping something locked up from you and I intend to find out what it is." Brother Blood vowed as he began to recalibrate the machine.
The Titans had finally made it past booby trap central. Not without being harmed. Cyborg's left arm was inoperable, while Raven was limping slightly. Beast Boy's was rubbing his sore butt, which had been smoked by a gun. Starfire was putting her right arm into a sling. Dark Robin ached all over and was panting. It had happened again and this time the vision was stronger. Something had to be done and quick.
"I don't know about you guys but I never want to do that again." Beast Boy said sitting down to catch his breath.
"Agreed. That was not one of our better moments. At least its over." Starfire said faintly
"Guys I hate to point this out put there are two doors. Which one do we take?" Dark Robin asked angrily. He was barely keeping his temper in check.
"Will follow the crystal. Maybe Jinx's is guarding Robin. Its are best hope so lets go." Cyborg said pushing door number one open. Everyone followed him hoping he was right.
