Ok, so this will be chapter five.
Disclaimer: I don't own Teen Titans, only the 'plot' in this fanfiction. So enjoy it while it lasts.
All of the above is obvious.
Being that paranoid loser I am, this chapter is why the rating is going up…
5…
I came down to breakfast the next morning to meet a very angry Cyborg. "Cyborg, what's wrong?" I asked, wincing at my kindness to the metal man, I wasn't kind to anyone.
"There is going to be… Slade will… We need to watch out ok? Get everyone down here now."
I gave him a warning glance that read if-you-don't-tell-me-what's-going-on-I'll-kill-you.
"I'll be back then." I grumbled.
Knocking on everyone's door at seven in the morning wasn't something I ever wanted to do. I gave everyone a heads up and went back to Cyborg. "What was it you were trying to say?" I put an emphasis on what, if he was going to play it that way then so would I.
"Slade is planning to attack us."
"With more drones?" I couldn't help but smile at him being so worked up over that, I had defeated half of them with one spell.
"No. You and I both know people are joining one side or the other, he is going to fight us that way, the weak way. We need to get our allies to help us as soon as possible."
I was so surprised I hadn't seen everyone come in to meet us.
"What?"
I turned around, surprised to see it was Beast Boy who spoke. I noticed Robin sink onto the couch and run his fingers through his hair. "Oh no… he wouldn't use them for that? This is just so cruel… I thought they were a threat!" He said to himself.
"What are you talking about Robin? If you have ANY information that you are withholding I kindly suggest you tell us now, rather than later."
"Slade has a type of gun that he invented… they kill instantly the person who the bullet hits, and the others around him or her."
"So…" Beast Boy said.
"So he may implant them in the drones, it won't be all humans we battle."
"Oh." Beast Boy nodded.
"Well need to prepare then. Cyborg, alert as many as you can, Starfire, try to find out where he is planning to attack, Robin and Raven come with me, the rest help wherever you can." Batman said. Robin and I obeyed and followed him to the gym.
"You will need to lead." Batman said. "You, Robin, will control troops, we are depending on you. Especially you Raven. Your powers are one of the strongest thigs we have."
I had never been complimented by Batman before, come to think of it, I didn't know if anyone had.
"Robin, you will guide the troops on land." The cold hard Batman was back. Robin nodded. "I have to go help Starfire track Slade." Batman said as he left.
"I need to help prepare troops." Robin said.
"I need to… medidate." I knew that wasn't going to happen, maybe it would be better if my powers spiraled out of control… maybe it would hurt the enemy.
"They're coming to Jump City." Starfire said. It was four hours later and we hadn't had a sign of anything. I looked over at her computer screen, any minute now the alarm would go off, warning us of danger. They stepped closer to the heart of the city. It should go off… right… now.
BUZZ, BEEP, BUZZ, BEEP.
"Come on." Cyborg said grimly.
We stood there, in front of Slade's army, ours behind us. We glared at one another. Slade smiled a sinister smile, and the first bullet rang through the air. I didn't watch to see if it hurt anyone, I didn't look at anyone, I just yelled. "GO!" I took one last glance at Robin before the fighting began.
"AZARATH, METRION, ZINTHOS!" I watched some surprised humans fall, feeling sorry for them, we were supposed to be protecting them. Suddenly someone threw a knife at me.
"DEMON! WITCH!" They screamed. They countinued to follow me, backing me into an ally, the fight raging in front of me, and behind them.
"THIS IS WHERE YOU DIE WITCH!"
I couldn't help it, I rolled my eyes at them. I had laugh at them.
"WHAT ARE YOU LAUGHING AT?" They were enraged now.
"This. Azarath, Metrion, Zinthos!" I blew them across the street, where they hit the wall with a loud thud and fell. Something about their security made me laugh. I decided I would let someone else put them out of their misery and flew above a group of robots, preparing to kill them all. Before they could even shoot they were on the ground in a crippled mass. I sighed, it was a shame to waste our time on them. I looked closer, they had crushed some of the people below them, blood was seeping out from under the drones. I screamed and fired at more of the drones, it was their fault we had to kill innocent people.
The people that cause you pain!
No that's not true jealousy!
Yes it is! KILL THEM, IT IS ALL UNFAIR!
NO! I was spiraling out of control and I knew it, drones below me exploded, sending shrapnel everywhere. I screamed in pain as jealously tried to completely control my mind, fighting with everything I had against her.
"STOP!" Luckily time didn't freeze. I shuddered at the thought of the time I had yelled that… A person aimed at me, seconds later they were dead. I screamed even louder, hating myself for doing that to them…
I watched in horror as my teammates killed at will, people falling with ease. Were they enjoying it? We are the titans, we are supposed to save! There was no saving now, only pain. I could end it, I knew that, my teammates knew that. If I ended it the world would be in pain and misery would prowl the streets. Another person tried to fire at me, I made a shield around me just in time. The bullet they fired bounced back and pierced their heart. Killing them with their own hatred.
I watched the troops slowly begin to retreat, I took one glance at my team members.
"DO SOMETHING RAVEN!" Cyborg screamed.
"AZARATH, METRION, ZINTHOS!" I cried. Darkness echoed across the street, many people falling, I sank to the ground.
"What were you doing out there?" Cyborg demanded. "Day dreaming?"
"Witch!" The cry broke out, a bullet rang through the air. Before I could react something slashed my arm. I screamed in pain.
"Cyborg calm down!" Robin said.
"We'll meet again titans!"
"SHU-" Beast Boy started, Starfire hushed him.
"Not now. Now we need to get Raven back."
Cyborg walked over to me.
"I'M FINE!" I shouted, my eyes glowing crimson. He backed away.
"Look, I'm just trying to help."
"GET. AWAY. NOW." I flew back to the tower, hiding in my room I bandaged my cut, after pulling the bullet out.
I screamed in pain as I felt for the bullet, it was deep in my wound. I had to push it out, tearing my arm even more. The gash opened wider, more blood flowing out. Finally I had it out. I looked down at my floor, blood stained it. I grunted and slipped on a bandage. The blood was beginning to stop. I wished I had enough powers to heal myself, but wishing never worked, instead pain shot up and down my arm.
"Raven?" Cyborg knocked on my door. The window started to crack.
"What?" I snapped.
"Are you OK? I'm sorry about…"
"DON'T BE!" The window shattered, shards of glass flying everywhere.
"Raven what are you doing?"
I looked at the window and started to run towards it, I jumped out, shards of glass tearing at my skin, I didn't care. I just wanted to get out, to be free.
"Raven!" Cyborg had opened the door and was staring at me fly out. I was out of my cage, free, soaring, bleeding… but free.
MUWAHAHAH! Ok… I shouldn't be laughing. Where will Raven go? Where did that impulse come from? Will this be a big part of my story? Um… I don't know so help me. I hope you enjoyed this erm… chapter. Pardon the rating but, I found it um… needed to go up, but maybe I'm just being 'overprotective'? Overprotective of WHAT though? I don't know… Maybe it should just be PG. But whatever… SO…
REVIEW!
I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO FOR MY NEXT CHAPTER, HELP ME NOW!
