Terra came climbing through the bathroom window. With Slade's help she had managed to get a hold of the signal from Robin's locator and traced it to here. But she had never expected to see Slade's other apprentice in this condition.

Robin's body was sprawled across the floor, broken shards of glass surrounding him. Almost every spot on his body had a fresh cut, blood eagerly seeping through what was left of his clothes. But the thing that surprised her the most was the small smile on the boy's lips. He looked happy to be in this condition, as though he deserved it.

Did he do this to himself? Thought Terra, walking up to Robin's unconscious form. She took her hand and ran it through the boy's hair. He looks so innocent. Could he really be the evil boy Slade has told me about? She moved her hand to his mask. I wonder what's under here… She was just about to take it off but Robin began to stir. She quickly pulled her hand away and took a step back.

Robin slowly opened his eyes to the blurry version in front of him. "Terra?" He whispered. Did I die? He thought. Did I really bleed that much? Or have I completely lost it? He reached his hand out and she held it. "Am I dead?"

She smiled and tightened her grip on his hand. "You're going to be fine," She pulled Robin to his feet and strangely enough, hugged the boy wonder. "I'm here to save you. You won't suffer anymore, I promise." She felt this need to be close to him and started to stroke his hair. "I'm going to take you away, you're life will completely change. But there won't be anymore pain." Robin closed his eyes and rested his head on her shoulder. "You can forget the old days as a titan, forget it all. That life you've become so used to, it doesn't exist anymore."

Robin listened to her without any complainant; her voice had a soothing affect on him. She could have said, "Go jump off a cliff, it'll make things better," and he would have done it without a second thought. "You're…taking me…away?" The lack of blood was getting to him but he refused to give in.

"Yes, Robin," Terra said. "I'm taking you to see Slade."

That wrecked the whole moment.

Robin's eyes flew open and he pulled himself out of Terra's arms. "Slade?" His voice shook. "Not Slade…"

Terra put her hand on his shoulder, still trying to win him over. "Slade wants you back Robin. He knows you're not happy with this life. Come with me and you can put this all behind you."

"No," Said Robin, his voice firm, the sane part of him taking over. "I won't." He glared at her. "Why do you like Slade so much? We're the ones who took you in, and have been trying to get you back. We're the ones who gave you a home and an offer to be a titan. We're the ones…who are your friends."

"My friends?" Terra shouted, glaring back at him. "You were never my friends! You guys killed me! Slade's the one who brought me back; he's the one who cares about me. Robin, you're minds been messed with. Slade's told me everything…Now come with me, I don't want to hurt you."

"My minds been messed with? That's a good one." Robin smirked. "Just like old times, you believe every little lie he throws at you. I think you're the one who needs to find a better life."

There was a long moment of silence as Terra thought that one over. She didn't believe him at all. Slade had saved her and he was going to save Robin. If he'd stop being such a stubborn idiot… "You'll thank me in the end." With that she brought a rock through the window and it smashed into Robin's stomach.

Robin knew he wasn't going to win this fight, he was already in bad shape but he pulled out his staff. "I'm sure." He swung the staff at her face but she ducked, kicking Robin's feet out from under him. He fell on his back and groaned.

"I'm sorry," She said and sounded like she meant it. Then she brought her foot up and slammed it down onto Robin's face, instantly knocking him out. Blood poured from the boy's nose and Terra sighed. "You were in bad enough shape already…" She pulled out the small communicator Slade had given here. "I've got Robin."

(First of all, this is not Terra/Robin and second, that came out really short…Well its 1:30 in the morning and I got no sleep the night before so yeah. The next chapter should be a lot longer. Sorry if it sucked, I'm tired…)
