CHAPTER 7
Catgirl
Kate groaned and slowly opened her eyes. A blurry picture of five people surrounding her came into view.
"Hey, she's coming to!"
"Glorious!"
"Wha….?" Kate asked, in a dream-like sate. There was a dark blue, purple, green, light blue and a red blur clouding her vision. She couldn't move. She figured that she must be heavily hurt and she must have at least three broken rib bones, but, that didn't stop her from trying to get up.
A soft but firm hand was placed on her shoulder from the red blur. She heard a male voice say, "Hold it. You're too injured to be sitting up."
She blinked a few times and the people focused. Her mind was still cloudy and mixed up. She tried to sort out her thoughts. Okay, She thought to herself. My name is… Ca…no Kate, right? Yeah, Kate Sakaki. My mother…died. Yeah, that's right. Okay, and my father…
As rage flowed through her body, her claws literally dripped of acid of all the pain and rage and hatred that she felt to this human. She hissed and stabbed her acid dripping, razor sharp claws into his back. The acid flowed through his blood, burning everything.
The image played over quickly in her mind. Okay, I killed my father. I worked for Slade. And these people are… "Enemies." She whispered.
"What is she talking about man?" asked the green boy. "She's on pain killers. Everything is probably pretty fuzzy to her right now. Who knows what she's saying."
Painkillers. That was what was making her brain work like a slug. Was it an attempt to disarm her to make her easier to beat? No, these people didn't look or act hostile, except for the pale looking girl who was standing a bit away from the group, giving her an evil look.
The boy that seemed to be the leader saw her look at each of the titans. He placed a hand on his chest, "I'm Robin. That's Raven," he said, pointing to the pale girl. "That's Starfire," he said pointing to the deeply tanned girl with the big green eyes. 'Starfire' was smiling from ear to ear and frankly it creeped her out. "That's Beast Boy," He said pointing to the all green boy. He smiled and did a small wave. "And that's Cyborg," He said pointing to the half man half robot guy. He smiled, "Hi-ya 'lil lady."
"You're hot." She smiled and giggled. "Uh… Robin???" Cyborg asked Robin. "It's the painkillers dude."
The only one that didn't seem happy about the injured girl staying at the T-Tower was Raven. I swear that girl is bad. What about Terra? Huh? Sure she sacrificed herself for us in the end but she also gave us to Slade. I tell you, it's going to be Terra all over again if we let her stay. I tried to tell them…
######FLASHBACK######
"Come on, we have to take her back to Titans Tower…we can't just leave her here," Robin said.
"Unfortunately," Raven's monotone grumbled from a dark corner.
Slade had escaped in the darkness and confusion. Everyone was worried about the cat girl but guilty, in the back of their minds, they wanted to go search for Slade not tend the wounded girl.
Cyborg's bright shoulder lights lit up the office. Beast Boy carefully picked up a large sheet of paper and looked at it, "Um…dudes and dudettes… take-a look at this." He held up the paper. Raven appeared next to BB.
He jumped at the sudden voice of Raven, "It looks like some sort of plan for a dooms-day device,"
"Raven! You scared me half to death!" Beast Boy said. "Too bad I didn't finish the job…" She mumbled as she glided away. Beast Boy frowned and crossed his arms.
Robin sighed and looked around the messy room. "Cyborg get Catgirl, I'll get the police and a bomb crew to hunt down and disable this dooms-day device. Besides that we might as well clear out there's nothing worth staying here for,"
Raven could tell by his defeated voice and last words Robin was thinking about Slade. She knew his obsession, everyone one did. But she felt like she needed to cheer him up.
That thought alone creeped her out: Raven, causing another person's joy…yup weird. But it wasn't weird enough to stop her from slowly gliding over to Robin. She placed a hand on his shoulder and gave him a sympathetic look. He brushed it off and turned away from her and pulled out his communicator and proceeded to call the police.
Raven stood there looking at him blankly.
XXXXBack at the T-TowerXXXX
"She CAN'T stay here! I swear, it's going to be Terra all over again!"
"She fought Slade! She can't be still his apprentice!"
"How do we know that fight wasn't staged?" Raven hissed at Robin. "We don't! But we couldn't just let her die there!" Robin growled back.
"We could have just called the hospital. Ever think of that?"
"They would throw her in jail. I think she changed. I think…" Robin trailed off his voice going quiet.
"Think what?" Raven asked. Acid lacing every word, "That she could be a titan? Please Robin, don't make me laugh. She's evil, bad, vile, a villain and a real big bitch,"
"You know," Robin said, "Sometimes I could say some of the same things about you."
Raven's eyes widened and her mouth dropped. Lights burst and holes in walls were formed by Raven's dark energy.
"Yo!" Cyborg stuck his head out of the Titan's mini hospital, "Now, what the hell is going on between you two?"
"Nothing."
"I don't want to talk about it."
######END FLASHBACK######
"Raven," Robin's abrupt voice shook her out of her daydream, "See if you could heal her. I think she has a broken arm and some ribs,"
Raven nodded stiffly and walked closer to the girl. She placed her hands slightly over Kate's chest. "Azarath Metrion Zinthos," She mumbled. Her eyes glowed white and her hands glowed light blue.
"There," She said after she was finished. "All breakages are reduced to minor factures and should be healed in a couple of weeks." Her voice sounded hollow and dead.
Robin stepped forward and spoke to the cat girl, "Look, Catgirl," He said using the nick name the titans had dubbed her, "After your bones are healed, would you possibly think of joining the Teen Titans?"
The Catgirl nodded and closed her eyes.

"You can't go through this!"
"But I have to!"
A dark tall young man ran his pale bony fingers through his dark hair. "Keara…" He whispered. "No," the young woman said firmly. "I had a deal with Lord Trigon. He gave me my spiritual fire powers. I would be just another filthy half-breed demon without him. I may have been the daughter of Ignipotens, but I had no powers. So… you see… I have to give myself to him… tonight.
"I know what's going to happen. He's going to kill you after the child it born! Couldn't you repay him another way?"
"Michael," She said firmly using his full name, not the friendly nick name 'Mike' she usually called him, "How do you know that? It's not like your psychic…"
oOoOoOo
How'd ya like it? The next chapter is a song chapter...thing... so you know something big and dramatic is going to happen. It will change the lives of the Titans FOREVER!!!!
