Chapter 10-The Murderous Death Tango

At last, the others awoke to find Robin and Raven making out up against the wall. Beast Boy chuckled, then walked up to them and barked, "Okay, okay break it up, you two."

"Yes Raven, you are married! Please stop being an adultress!" Starfire exclaimed.

"I don't think it matters, Star, because we're going to kill Slade anyway," Cyborg said. Then the lovers came up for air. Raven asked, "And just how are we going to do that?"

"By giving him a taste of his own medicine. In this case, his medicine is potassium cyanide," Robin answered. Then they began to plot this plan.

"Okay team, here's our plan. Raven, I'm going to get the cyanide. You slip it into his herbal tea and give it to him. Cyborg, you chop him into pieces when he's dead. Beast Boy, you burn the remains. Starfire, you get us ready to leave when we are done," Robin stated his instructions. Everybody stared at him like he was a morbid psychopath. He questioned, "What? That evil, cursed man should burn in hell for this shit!"

"When are we going to spring this plan?" Starfire wondered aloud.

"Right freakin' now," Raven stated. And so, the plan commenced. Robin stealthily snuck into Slade's room, opened the cabinet, and found a bottle labled RAVEN'S POISON.

"This is it," Robin whispered under his breath. He took the bottle, and snuck out the same way he snuck in. He went to Raven's room, where she was waiting with two cups of herbal tea. Robin poured some cyanide into one.

"Careful, it's the one on the right," he warned her, "I don't want any accidents. I can't lose you."

"I'll be fine. The one with the cyanide is a little lighter in color. That's what I'm giving to Slade," Raven answered back. Then they shared another kiss, prompting Robin to say, "I'm coming with you. I'll be out in the hall watching, but I'm coming with you anyway!" Raven nodded, and they went down with the tray. She strolled into Slade's parlor room, while Robin looked on.

"What is it, dear?" Slade asked.

"I bought you some tea," she responded, laying down the tray and handing him the cup. The bottom part of his mask came off, so he could drink. He slowly sipped, but didn't swallow. Robin was so overjoyed, he came in the room and shouted, "You're finally gonna die, you bastard!" Slade then did the unthinkable. He used the tea he didn't swalow and French-kissed Raven. Now she had cyanide in her system, too. Slade fell to the floor, clutching his stomach. His last words were, "If I die, then you die. See you in hell, bitch."

"No!" Robin screamed, rushing over to Raven. He kneeled down and held her in his arms.

"R-Robin, I-I love you," Raven spoke weakly.

"I love you too! Don't die on me!" Robin cried.

"Just do me one favor," she asked.

"Anything," he said.

"I want my last breath to be wasted on your lips."

"Of course," he agreed. She put her hands on his shoulders, and they had one last, passionate, romantic kiss. Then death came upon her, and her arms fell from his shoulders. He stopped kissing her, and began to sob.

"Must the world dispise me so, to know a man so evil, that he killed my one true love!" he yelled through tears. The others came in, hearing him. Cyborg got ready to chop up Slade, but stopped short upon seeing Raven, dead in Robin's arms.

"She's gone. She's really gone," Robin said in a hushed voice.


This is one of the saddest things I've ever even thought of. I was literally crying as I wrote this. Tear-tear.
