A/N: I have not much to say here except don't forget the "Kidnapped" parts are:Part One: Teen Titans POV, Part Two:Christine's POV, Part Three:All, wraps it all up, and thanks for the reviews, I'd appreciate a bit more though...do you think this story should have a sequel? Hmmm..the possiblities..hmmm.... One more little thing: A lot of the beginning is a repeat of what you have already read because its the same events except through Christine's eyes. So until the actual kidnapping its pretty much what you already read. But read it anyway
Chapter 6: Kidnapped, Part 2
Christine woke up quickly. Her dreams had been a mixture of her father and Beast Boy; her father killing Beast Boy, Beast Boy killing her father, her father giving her away at her and Beast Boy's wedding...the last one was the one she woke up to.
"What the hell is wrong with me?" she grumbled to herself. She decided to go to the roof and think. She opened the door,looked to see if anyone was there, then stepped into the hallway. She walked as quickly as she could to the roof. Once there, she sat down and gazed at the ocean. It was so beautiful, so calm..she sighed. She started thinking about Beast Boy.
"If he likes me, why doesn't he just break up with Terra? I don't care if he likes her...but well, then again, it must be really hard in his position..hmm..geez, it's not fair. I really like him a lot..almost ever since I met him. I hate that my moods are out on display. It's just like I told Robin...I can't keep any secrets, any at all." She turned around suddenly, thinking she heard something. She saw a small mouse stop suddenly and stare at her.Before it could escape, she scooped it up.
"Hello little mouse-wait a minute..Beast Boy?" she said, realizing the mouse was green. The mouse merely squeaked. She stared at him a moment, smirked evilly, then stood up. "I know how to make you show yourself," she said. She tossed him over the edge and hoped she was right. Soon enough, a bird flew up and Beast Boy stepped onto the ground, looking thorougly alarmed.
"That was not even funny," he said. She laughed and shrugged.
"I thought it was. What are you doing up here? Did you follow me?" she asked him. Beast Boy blushed. She laughed in her mind. "He's so cute when he does that...wait, no thinking, you may accidentally say something out loud!" she said to herself.
"Well I heard you come out of your room and I wondered where you were going..." Beast Boy said, trailing off at the end. Christine couldn't help but smile.
"That's okay. I come up here to think sometimes. It's comforting," she said. She pushed her hair behind her ears absent mindedly.
"You know...I would break up with Terra..but I like her too,"he said, changing the topic abruptly. Christine sighed. She had been expecting him to bring this up again.
"Beast Boy...I know this'll sounds very Terra-like and maybe even stupid...but over this past year, as each day went by, I've liked you more and more." She took a breath, deciding quickly if it was okay to tell him this. "Beast Boy..I think I love you," she said quietly. She felt extremely embarassed, as if she had thrown herself out to sea without a lifejacket and prayed she could swim.
"I don't think I even know what I feel anymore," he said. She watched him run one hand through his hair and they both stared at the ocean in front of them. Suddenly, Christine just wanted to cry. Be alone. Think. But not be in anyone's company.
"Can I be alone for a minute to think?" she asked. "No offense, it's nothing against you, it's just if I get really mad or sad about something I don't wanna blow you off the building," she said, grinning, trying to hide her real feelings.
"It's okay, I'll go," he said. On impulse, Christine grabbed his arm as he turned to go.
"Wha-?" he started to ask, but Christine suddenly found herself kissing him gently on the very corner of his lips. Christine giggled as Beast Boy laughed nervously, blushed, and scurryed to the stairs. She turned around and thought she saw a shadow flit across the roof. Startled, she turned around, fear suddenly flooding her. She attempted to step back towards the elevator, then she spun to her other side. Suddenly, she was grabbed around her waist and her captor was running to the edge of the buildling. She screamed at the top of her lungs. She could hear the alarm going off in the building. She was facing behind the captor, and she could see Beast Boy coming up the stairs as the kidnapper neared the edge.
"Beast Boy, help!" she screamed, fear filling every corner of her body more than ever before. She turned her head as best she could to see who the kidnapper was.
"Dad?" she whispered, glaring up at him in shock. Slade glared down at her and jumped as Beast Boy turned into a bird. She barely saw the other Titans run up the stairs. She tried to scream but couldn't;the sudden downward rush stole her air, much the same as her father was stealing her from the life she actually loved. They landed smoothly on the ground with very few bumps. She could see a green eagle above her, and she started crying, wondering if their last kiss would be..well, their actual last. As Beast Boy changed into a cheetah and started changing them, she was jerked sharply around as Slade turned and fired something at him. When he resumed normal running position, she could see Beast Boy trapped in a net. But soon he got out and the chase resumed. She could barely make out the other Titans far behind them. Another sharp jerk and turn around later and she could she him caught in another net, but this time he couldn't get free.
"Beast Boy!" she screamed again. Now they were too far away for her to see him anymore. "I hate you," she whispered suddenly, her eyes turning blacker than the deepest part of the night.
Minutes later, they were in what was obviously Slade's hideout. He slipped a metal band over her head and four more on her wrist and ankles.
"What do you want?" she growled angrily.
"Merely to understand you. I obviously did not need your help in creating my great evil empire, but I do long for that father daughter relationship so many people seem to have," he said. Christine wondered why her father had so much metal on him; it was as if he was more robot than Cyborg. She remembered the once brown eyes that had gazed fondly upon her as a child.
"I am not your daughter," she spat.
"On the contrary, my dear, you are. You cannot deny who you are, as much as you hate me. But no matter. I have not developed a way to make you love me, nor a way to completely turn you against the Titans-I saw my failure in Robin and I have ever since been attempting to improve-but I have developed a way to learn all about you, and possibly use it to my advantage." He said this with a smirk.
"Don't you dare hurt them. I'll kill you. I swear, I'll kill you," she hissed. He laughed evilly.
"You'll kill me? When you're strapped into a chair?" he said. "I can ask you any question, and if you refuse to answer, one push of a button will zap your brain into spitting out whatever the answer may be." He held up a small remote. Christine stared blankly at him.
"Why do you look so different, Dad? It's like you're not human," she said softly. Slade sighed.
"It was the only way to become...as close to perfect as I could. And the only way I could insure having superior, robotic knowledge. The only way I could insure I'd somehow get my precious daughter back. Evil as I may be....I do love you," he said. Christine looked up at him.
"Dad, you should've just ASKED me if I actually wanted to be...evil. I would've said no of course, but you honestly didn't have to blow up like that. And to send mom away really tore me up. Dad...why couldn't you just be normal? Why did you even want to be evil in the first place?" She screamed the last part. Slade looked taken aback.
"Because I enjoyed getting what I wanted it, the thrill of the crime, having my own little scheme....the whole package. Being good didn't have its benefits to me," he said. The hatred was back in Christine's eyes. "I can see your hate, Christine. But why can't you understand?" he said. Christine frowned.
"What I can't understand is how my loving father became a total bastard!" she yelled. "You've made my friend's lives hell, before I even knew them as a matter of fact! Speaking of which, how-"
"Silence. I've had enough of your questions. We leave now," he said sharply.
"Leave where? Why? Where are we going?" she said. Slade sighed in annoyance.
"We're going to Asia. For one, I want the Titans to track you down. See how much they really care..if they love you as much as you used to love me. For a second thing...that's where your mother is." Christine gasped.
"Really? Wait...why do you want me to see her?" she said.
"Because she asked for you. She found me a few weeks ago while I was getting something important from Asia and begged to see me. Quite pathetic really...but I told her I would," he said, looking disgusted at the thought of her mother. It was hard for Christine to believe her father and mother had been in love at one point in time.
"When are we leaving?" Christine asked.
"Right now," Slade said, untying her and bringing her to the waterfront behind the warehouse. There was a large submarine-boat looking vessel there, and he put her in it behind him. He hopped in and submerged it, and they shot off like a bullet towards Europe.
Christine sighed boredly and leaned against the window. At first it had been exciting to see beautiful fish and dangerous creatures zooming by her window, but now it was all boring and repetitive.
"Are we there yet?" Christine asked. Slade gripped the steering wheel in irritation (A/N: steering wheels on submarines..hmmm..).
"No. We are a little more than halfway there," he said. "It will be about another hour before we get there." They had been travelling for two hours now. It had gone faster than a normal airplane or boat would because he had designed it to go at breakneck speeds. Christine frowned and thought of the Titans. Would they come after her? How would they find her since she was going to be out of country? Would Terra be glad she was gone? All these thoughts swirled through Christine's head, but all of them led her to think back to one person: Beast Boy. Sighing in frustration, she closed her eyes and shed a single tear before deciding crying in front of Slade wouldn't be a good idea. She wiped it away and continued to look out the window.
An hour and a half later they arrived in Europe. He brought her food and used a computer to track the Titans.
"Ah, they seem to be setting out from their little Tower right now," Slade said, smirking. "I knew we'd have a great headstart on them." Christine frowned and looked around the abandoned shack they were in. She wondered how he was using a computer, then realized he was pretty much a robot. Christine yawned loudly. Slade turned around.
"You're tired?" he asked. Christine nodded and glared coldly at him.
"Considering that you swept me away in the middle of the night, yes, I am," she said. Slade stared down at her, then gestured to a bed with moth eaten pillows and sheets. Somewhat disgusted but not daring to complain, Christine went and layed down on it. Slade let her sleep; he didn't think the Titans would be able to catch up to them very quickly. He went out to buy some food from a German market down the street, and Christine slept, her dreams plagued by visions of her father destroying her friends, her mother...her life. A few hours later Slade returned. Christine was just waking up. She saw the food on the table.
"What took so long?" she snapped.
"I don't know much German," he snapped back. Christine shrugged and started eating. She looked out the dusty window beside her; dark was falling. She sighed, wondering where her friends were, hoping they were okay. After she finished, Slade cleared the table and sat in front of her.
"Now for the interview," he said. Christine suddenly remembered the controlling bands. She clamped her mouth shut and turned away from him. "Now, now..that is no way to treat your father. I'm not going to ask you any secrets of the Titans or anything of that manner, I know I can overthrow anything you teenagers come up with anyway," he said. Christine glared at him.
"You don't know that," she said. Slade sighed.
"I merely want to know about your life. That will be more to my advantage than any of your silly little plots," he said. Christine sighed.
"Fine. Ask away," she muttered.
"That's my girl," he said. Christine frowned. "Now..which Titan are you closest to? In a friendly way, of course," he said, and she could almost hear his smirk through the darkness. Christine glared at him.
"I don't know. I'm close to all of them, kind of. Terra and Cyborg are the most distant, and Robin is the next most distant, so I suppose Starfire, Raven, and Beast Boy." She didn't understand how questions like these could help him, but she decided she might as well go with it. Slade looked thoughtful.
"Okay..hmm..now, is there anyone in particular that you...love? Like? Have an infatuation with?" he asked. Christine suddenly thought about what he could do if he knew about Beast Boy and she refused to say anything.
"Refusing to speak? No matter..." He pushed the button on the remote. At first Christine thought she was being electrocuted..then her vocal cords made her speak, as if they weren't her own, turning against her like an evil force inside of her.
"I love Beast Boy," she said, then clamped her hand over her mouth and started crying silently. Slade chuckled.
"That is very good to know....now..." He went on to ask her questions about her personal life until it was pitch black. He stood up suddenly and commanded her to go into the back room. She obeyed hastily and she could hear a door opening. She leaned her head against the door and gasped; her friends were there! She could hear their voices. She considered busting out of the door and running to them, but decided against it. Suddenly the door was flung open and she was knocked backwards. She rubbed her now-sore head and looked up. Her mouth dropped open; Slade was standing there, holding Beast Boy firmly by the arm.
"Wha-why-huh?!?!" Christine stammered.
"HE'S your DAD?!?" Beast Boy said in surprise. She looked past them and could see the other Titans standing there nervously, and she wondered why they had let Slade take Beast Boy.
"Christine, it's time for part two," Slade said. Beast Boy looked at him in confusion; Christine could only stare.
A/N: Yeah yeah bad ending I know but I needed to update...so RAWR. Been busy...kinda oo. Anyway, only one more chapter in this little kidnapping segment... Much love to you all! PLEASE Review and Recommend this to your friends! Love always!
