"Friend Cyborg?" They saw him wince.
"Cy, where's BB and Nightwing?" No answer.
"Cyborg?" He slowly turned to face them. They gasped as they saw the tearstains that blotched their friends face.
"Gone."
Chapter 11:
Raven and Starfire stood shell-shocked, gaping at him.
"I am sorry friend Cyborg, but I believe I misheard you." Star said weakly. Raven had screwed her eyes shut, praying this wasn't happening. "Did you just say…"
"They're gone Star!" Cyborg yelled, jumping up. "They're both gone and they're never coming back." He had no more tears to cry. Fury had replaced his sadness.
Raven clutched the wall so hard her knuckles turned white, her face turned into it. Nothing was exploding. Raven felt dead. Starfire trembled and collapsed to the floor. She couldn't breath. Her life was flashing before her eyes. She looked up at Cyborg pleadingly.
"They are… He is…" Starfire struggled to say the word, she closed her eyes and forced it off her tongue, "…d-de-ad…?" Raven came to life at the hateful word; the T.V. exploded, the couch flew out the window, and the kitchen was demolished.
"Worse." Cyborg said, sounding crushed and defeated. Raven turned on him, bits of rubble flying towards him. He didn't even dodge.
"WHAT COULD BE WORSE THAN DEATH?" She screamed, torrents of hot furious tears flooded down her face.
"They're completely under Slade's control." Cy whispered. Everything stopped. Nothing stirred. And Raven collapsed.
Slade's lair:
Nightwing woke in a bare white room and winced as he clutched his arm.He felt woozy but not unlike himself he tried to stand and found he couldn't. Okay maybe a little unlike himself. He heard a door slide open behind him and stiffened.
"Oh good. Your awake."
"Slade!" Nightwing snarled and whipped around. And stopped, staring at Slade. The last thought he had, before the drug took its affect was his whole world summed up into one word.
Starfire…
Beast Boy woke with a start.
"Duuuuude…" He groaned. "Did anyone get the number of that truck?" he moaned, rubbing his head.
"S-L-A-D-E." Beast Boy's eyes widened and he turned slowly, completely forgetting the drug until his pupils contracted, fixing on his worst enemy.
No… Raven…
The moment her feet landed in her mind she was swarmed by her emotions.
"HE'LL BE KILLED!" Timid.
"WHAT DOES SLADE WANT WITH BB?" Curious.
"IF HE'S UNDER SLADE'S CONTROL, HE'S GOING TO ATTACK US!" Knowledge.
"WHAT IF WE HAVE TO KILL HIM?" Pain.
"THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING, PLEASE MAKE IT STOP!" Fear.
"OH GOD, BEAST BOY!" Love.
"THERE MUST BE A WAY TO SOLVE THIS!" Wisdom.
"ENOUGH!" Raven roared, covering her ears. The emotions fell silent immediately. Raven glared at them all before collapsing to the ground in uncontrollable sobs. At least here, she could make anything blow up in the real world. Her emotions gathered around her, Love knelt beside her and cried with her.
Starfire crawled over to Raven to check her pulse. It was there. Star stared at the wall as the tears came.
"Cyborg?" She whimpered. Cy looked up at her. "My heart hurts…"
"I know Star…" He croaked.
Starfire's eyes glazed over as memories flooded back…
Flashback:
"I'm your friend Star! I don't care what you look like… besides, you look fine to me…"
"I'm glad your coming back with us and… not getting married…"
"Uh Starfire, that's mustard…"
"STARRRRFIRRRRRE!"
End Flashback.
Sobs escaped her lips and she rocked herself back and forth trying to relieve the terrible pain in her chest. Suddenly the alarm blared. Raven sat bolt upright. All three turned to face the computer, dreading what they knew they would find.
Author's Comments: -ears droop- I don't like sad chapters, but I'm afraid they're necessary. Review! Or I might do something drastic! –eyes roll over to look at Cyborg- Innocent victims might be hurt. –cackles maniacally- -gasps as she regains control over her laptop and glares at Slade who stole it- I will not be held responsible for what Slade might do! Reviews give me strength to fight him though! Review! Save Cy!
