Raven soon came to, with a pounding in her head, and the groggiest feeling in her stomach. She then remembered what happened. She found herself laying on the floor. her hair was a mess, and her sandals were broken. She stood up weakly, and walked out of the room. "Hello," a voice said from behind her. She whipped around, and saw herself face to face with Slade.
"Why did you kidnap me?"
"I didn't kidnap you. 1.) I was asked to kidnap you by Starfire. 2.) If I didn't you'd be dead right now. Starfire told me that she was going to kill you if this didn't work. Raven, I saved your life." He said with a smirk.
"What?" she said amazed.
"Yes, I saved you. I have always had a fondness for you." He said, laying a finger on her cheek. She swatted it away.
"Stop," she said, the memories of Beast Boy's acts on her came back to her. Slade kept doing it, knowing that it made her uncomfortable. It then came to him. If he wanted to keep her under control, he'd have to do the ultimate. He walked closer.
"I know, my dear, that you don't like people coming close, except for robin, that is." She quickly backed away.
"STOP!" she said frantically. She was scared to think what would happen. He wrapped his arms around her, and brought her ear near his mouth.
"This is only to get you under control. If I didn't have to do this, I wouldn't," Raven knew what was coming next. She quickly backed away.
"Please, don't," she said a tear dropped down her cheek. But that plea went unanswered, as everything went black.
Robin sat on the roof. He didn't know what to do. All of this was his fault. If he hadn't let Starfire trick him, this never would have happened. He heard the door open and then shut. He saw someone sit down next to him. Usually, when he was troubled, Raven came up and talked to him. But he was even more surprised when Starfire sat next to him.
"Robin," she said softly.
"What?" he said sharply.
"Robin, I'm here to tell you that I am resigning from the titans."
He glanced over her. "What?" he said softly.
"Robin, what I did was really bad. I just realized that killing Raven would only hurt you more. Now I see that I am nothing more than a deranged psychopath. I know you will never trust me again, and neither will Raven, so I've decided to go back home."
"Starr… that was exactly what I wanted to hear. Not you going home, but you realized it. I will trust you now, but not entirely. Not even half, but I do trust you, and I don't want you to leave."
Star looked over at him. "Are you nuts?"
"Maybe," he said.
Cyborg then came up, and said, "Slade just checked in and he wants to talk to you." Robin jumped up, and Star quickly followed.
Raven later woke up on the ground. She felt nauseated. Her khaki skirt was stained with blood from fighting with Slade. He…their worst enemy…Slade…had raped her. She never wanted to see him again. He then walked in. She buried her face in her hands. "Please come here. Someone wants to talk to you." She wouldn't move. He sighed, and then grabbed her by the hair. He shoved her into a chair, and placed the arm restraints over her thin wrists. He spun the chair around.
Back at the titans tower, they all waited to see her…see if she was okay. When Slade spun the chair around, they didn't see Raven. Or at least, not the tough, don't-say-anything-to-me-or-I'll-kick-your-butt Raven. The girl they saw was frightened, and vulnerable. They saw her, her hair covering her dirty face. When she looked up, and saw the titans face, she gasped, but wouldn't speak. She opened her mouth, but as soon as she saw slade's hand on her shoulder, she shut it, and dropped her head down so they wouldn't see her cry. but he grabbed her face. The titans saw it, and gasped. They had seen Raven shed an occasional tear, but not sob. "What…have…you…done…to her?" Robin asked enraged. "See this pitiful little girl? You want her to suffer more? If not, than come and take her home!" he said before clicking the screen off. He turned to her and removed the restraints.
"Did you have fun last night?" he said with a grin. Nothing but tears. He then picked her up, and threw her on the ground hard. She whacked her head too hard. Her vision began to sway. "I did, which is why we're going to do it again," She felt her inside turn to ice as she passed out.
Robin stared at the screen. "We have no idea where he is."
"Yes we do, I traced the signal. He's at the boathouse."
Robin was then out the door. He hopped onto his motorbike as the other titans jumped into the T-car. Robin gripped the handlebars as he sped off. "We will find you raven. Just hold on," he said to himself.
Raven woke to maniacal laughing next to her. Slade stood near her; she sat against a wall with her arms bolted above her head on the wall, and her legs bolted on the ground. A large metal bolt an inch thick was covering her mouth. He stood there tossing a jewel in his hand. It was her chakra! She used it to control her powers. Without it, pure chaos would be put upon the city. She tried to move her arms around, but almost instantly, blood trickled down her arms from the sharpness of the metal. She then stopped. She was exhausted. Slade walked over to her. He showed her the jewel. "You will no longer control your powers. See the tubes in your arms? They pull your powers out of your body. They come to the end of the tubes, where I will then use them to destroy your precious Robin and your pathetic friends. And you, if the energy being pulled from your body doesn't kill you, then that loss of blood will," Slade said pointing to her arms. The blood was flowing, and he was beginning to feel it.
She then heard a loud bang outside. "Your friends have arrived." he said, walking to the door. The door was smashed open. From her spot, Raven could see Robin leading the group. "Well, hello, titans!" Slade said. Robin grunted loudly. Slade then decided to use her powers. He shouted some strange words, then pushed the titans with a huge wall of black energy. As he used, Raven felt as if her inside were being sucked out. The pain was so immense she couldn't open her eyes. Slade began to fight the titans. As soon as he was preoccupied with Star, Robin snuck away to try and find Raven. He looked around, and finally found her. Her head was hanging limply. He ran over and grabbed her chin, pulling her head up. Raven then opened her eyes weakly. Robin smiled. She then dropped her head. "What's wrong?" Robin said.
Slade then walked in. "That is none of your business." he shouted the words again, and used her powers. The pain started again, and was worse. Robin saw her eyes look hurt. He was then lifted off the ground. Raven watched helplessly, knowing they were in deep trouble, and there was nothing she could do.
