Disclaimer: I don't own the Titans, but I do own Cedric, Chantal, Shuhei, and Sam, so don't steal or else! I am dead serious!
Chapter 20: A Confusing Web of Love
Timothy quickly faced the Titans. Starfire hurtled her star bolts at him while Cyborg shot him with his sonic cannon. All of the Titans attacked Timothy. As the smoke cleared, Timothy still stood clean. He looked mad though.
"Why the hell are you shooting at me!" That idiot over there put this stupid red X in my pocket!" yelled Tim as he threw it at Robin's feet. Robin picked it up and glared at Shuhei, who still had on a serious face. Then, Timothy went over to Shuhei and Sam and took Sam's arm.
Shuhei yelled, "What do you want with my girl!" Tim shot back, "Well, she was mine first!" Suddenly, Speedy ran forward and took Sam's hand. "You're both wrong, she's mine!" The three boys bickered for a while until Robin yelled, "BE QUIET!" Everyone shut up. Tim grabbed Sam and held her close to him. Shuhei looked stunned, but very angry. Robin glared at all of them. He turned toward Sam.
"Who are you?" Sam looked at him through her dark glasses. Then she took them off. He gasped.
"Who the hell do you think I am?" Sam glared at everyone, and they could her eyes flash bright green, then a sky blue. Sam looked at Robin.
"I'm the girl who saved your ass from Slade, and ended up dying. I sacrificed my life to save yours, and you don't know who I am?" Sam said in a quiet, demanding voice. Robin looked at her, horrified.
"You're… You died four years ago! I know you did! I saw you die!" yelled Robin at Sam. Sam's eyes turned a violent red. She walked toward Robin in an evil way, with a lot of anger inside of her.
"How could I have died if I am here? I saved your life, yet I was your worst enemy. You tried to kill me! It left me like this!" yelled Sam at Robin. Robin looked at her surprised as she gazed at him through the eyes.
Robin slowly said, "You're, Spark, the avenger of all vengeance! But you were only a regular teen back then! We went to school together, and we hated each other. One day, I was Robin, and I saw you in the graveyard. Suddenly, Slade appeared, and…"
Sam finished the story. "He shot some kind of laser thing at you. I pushed you out and got full on in the body. After that, he punched and kicked me for being an idiot for saving you. Of course, I was the top girl for martial arts. I beat you twice at school. Any way, he decided to burned me." Sam laughed a low, sarcastic laugh. "Little did he know he created a monster! Fire and the laser had a negative effect on my body." Tim looked at Sam and quietly said, "Spark, I love you." Spark's eyes became a mellow brown, and she looked at him. She put her sunglasses back on and looked at the three boys. She sighed and beckoned the Titans and the other four into a private room. She sat them all down. She looked at Speedy.
"I'm sorry, but…" Speedy looked at her. "Love is so sorrowful." Speedy said, "WHY?" Sam quietly replied, "I knew Tim first, but then, we lost contact. Funny thing is, I always hated Tim so much that I wanted to strangle him."
Chantal and Cedric sat down. Chantal smiled at all of the Titans and said, "Ready for another flashback?" All the Titans groaned.
"NOT AGAIN!" This time, Raven and Sam smiled, which was rare for both of them. Raven stood up.
"You guys get to experience it this time. By mixing my magic with her elements, I think we can make a broad picture for you guys so that you feel that you are there." Raven stood on one side and held out her hands. "Azerath, Metrione Zinthos!" Black energy swirled up. Sam calmly took off her sunglasses and breathed in deeply. She took in Raven's black magic through her eyes. She breathed slowly as she absorbed Raven's energy. Her body lifted off the ground was she swirled in black energy. Raven chanted "Azerath Metrione ZINTHOS!" and a black raven dove for Sam's eyes. She sucked it all in, and then fell onto the ground. Tim and Shuhei rushed over to her.
Tim checked her pulse. "She isn't breathing!" Shuhei felt her skin. "She's out cold."
"No" said a voice. Sam's eyes fluttered open. "I was just absorbing her energy. Now it's my turn." Sam slowly got up and chanted, "Sohtinz enoirtem HTARZEA!" The entire black energy came out of her eyes in the form of a raven, but mixing with it was a blood red phoenix. They mixed together and in the middle, it formed a white dove. All of the energy floated in the air as birds, twirling around each other. Raven kept on chanting, but slowly, she got weaker. Cyborg ran to her side and held onto her. Sam saw Raven and quickly started to chant louder a strange incarnation.
"By moonlight full and sunlight dim, the shadows dance while people shiver. Yet darkness reins in peace with light, like yin and yang together in flight. Come forth and mix two souls together, to form a picture so clear. Let all experience these events, in such a way that they will never forget."
Sam slowly walked up to the three birds and brought her hands together. They all combined and formed a red liquid in a black and white crystal bowl. Sam said, "Raven, you may rest now. It has been complete." Raven nodded, and she rested her head on Cyborg's shoulder. Sam walked up to each person and drew a line across their forehead, then painted twin cuts on each cheek. After every Titan had the inscriptions, Sam poured the liquid in a circle around the people. Sam and Raven put the empty goblet in the middle. Sam stood up and pointed her finger toward Raven's charka. It glowed, and everyone felt a relaxing warmth go through them, and they closed their eyes and slept.
