Thanks to my reviewers!
Nurirwen- thanks for reviewing!
And thanks to anyone who reviewed the last chapter after I posted this up! I'll personally thank you in the next chapter (if I get around to write it!)
Sorry, but Robin may be a little OOC now so…yeah…
Anyway, we left the titans and Elecktra in the dark so we'll go back to them…Titan's Tower:
"I have a bad feeling, like sick to my stomach bad." commented Beastboy as they search the tower thoroughly. Cyborg, moved his shoulder where his built in flashlight was and checked all of the dark corners, sonic cannon ready. Raven felt vulnerable, her powers were all she ever had and she wasn't a very good fighter.
"Good thing I don't have powers, cause y'all be in the dark." Cyborg smirked.
"Shut up." Raven said as she watched Elecktra out of the corner of her eye. Elecktra was lingering behind, looking behind her shoulder every now and then, looking anxious; her hands were gripping on her samurai sword quite tightly.
Elecktra POV:
I keep feeling something behind me and each time I look back, a flash of transparent white flashed by. They were real; they're really hunting me down, waiting to strike, waiting to fight…
"Are you ok? You're not afraid of the dark are you?" Robin said to me, teasingly and concerned at the same time.
"I'm being chased down by two demons that use to be my best friends! Would you be fine?""No, I'm fine"
"I saw something!" Beastboy cried out, pointing to the left.
Titan's POV:
"What was it?" Starfire asked. They quickly tried chasing it but it was gone.
"I don't know, probably mice." Cyborg answered.
"Then why are we in front of my room?" Elecktra asked as she stepped in front of everyone to open the door. The door swished open and they all stared, jaws dropped.
"Wow…"
"Oh My God! –"
"Titans GO!" Robin said, lamely and pointed a finger into the room. The walls had scratches and burned marks; the bed also had some too. The desk looked like it had been chopped in half and the curtains were ripped. But the most horrific and odd thing was there was dark stains splatter everywhere.
"Scanners say its blood." Cyborg said, playing around with the buttons on his arm. Elecktra looked at the walls but something on the window caught her eye.
On the window, in freshly slathered blood, read,
"We are always with you,
watching you,
haunting you,
no matter where you go,
we'll be there,
haunting you
'til we make you pay,
we will stop never,
haunting you forever…"
"That's scary…" Beastboy said, shivering.
"We have to find out who wrote this." Robin said, staring at the blood.
"I already know who did it." Elecktra answered
"Who?" Robin demanded
"I can't say."
"Why not?"
"Because! This has NOTHING to do with you! You'll just get in trouble!"
"But we want to help!"
"I don't need help from ANYONE! I never did and I never will!" Elecktra screamed. Then she quickly walked out of the room, running away.
Elecktra's POV:
"I gotta get out! Make sure they won't get hurt, make sure they won't get involved."
"They already are…" a voice appeared in my head, someone familiar and yet very unfamiliar.
"Who are you?""Run all you like but you can never hide from us, your friends are already involved and they will soon suffer if you run from this tower."
"No! You can't… you wouldn't…" I thought as I came to an apparent halt
"We can and we will…"Titan's POV:
Elecktra suddenly stopped running, her eyes shut and she just stood there. The Titans caught up to her but she was zoned out for a while. Then her eyes popped open and she said through a quiet and shallow breath,
"I don't need your help but I have to stay here."
"Why did you run in the first place?" Raven asked, her amethyst eyes looking straight into her own.
"Because…" she said in a breathy voice but trailed off. Her eyes started to widen and she began to glow bright white. Then she was levitated into the air and she began to spin into a glowing white blur. Then it stopped and the glow began to die down; she then began to glide down slowly, in her witch dress and the mysterious power lay her down on to the ground. Robin quickly took her pulse and Cyborg began to play around with his scanners.
"How is she?" Raven asked.
"She just… scanners say that her body is here but her mind is gone."
"Gone where?" Beastboy asked
"I don't know."
"I wish for my friend to be the all right now!"
"Don't we all…" Robin mumbled, still holding Elecktra's hand from taking her pulse down before. Raven notice but said nothing and began to meditate.
"What are you doing Rae? This is no time to meditate!" Beastboy asked, exhausted and a little bit angry.
"I'm trying to find Elecktra like I did with Robin once. And don't call me Rae."
"Oh… yeah." he said and then there was a long moment of silence but then Raven abruptly got up and dragged Cyborg with her to her room.
"I can't find her so I need my mirror. Come on Cyborg, I need light." and they disappeared down the hall. The other titans were left in the dark but Raven returned with Cyborg and her mirror.
"Aww man! Not that creepy mirror!" Beastboy cried out as Cyborg lingered behind all of them.
"I'm going to redirect the portal from my mind to Elecktra's… Azareth Metrion Zinthos…" she said and a bit of her powers went into the mirror and there was a whoosh and then nothing. And then Raven disappeared into the portal, grabbing Robin as she vanished.
"Hey! I wanted to come too!" Beastboy yelled at the mirror, snatched it and was about to throw it but Starfire quickly grabbed and put it on the kitchen counter.
"No, you shall not prevent them from coming back!" she said firmly as Beastboy sulked into the couch and Cyborg perused the fridge.
In Elecktra's Mind:
"Get off me Boy Blunder." Raven said, blowing a lock of her hair out of her face. Robin was on top of her but quickly got of and helped her up.
"Sorry" he said, smiling, he felt special that Raven chose him to go. Raven was straightening her cloak and dust off the invisible dust.
"It's ok, just stop smiling." and Robin's smile hastily disappeared.
"So… this is Elecktra's mind? Kind of dark isn't it? I thought it would a little bit sunnier." Robin said, looking around him. Surrounding him were bare trees, dry, cracked ground, and a black sky.
"You obviously haven't seen my mind yet but this comes pretty close to dark…in a horror movie dark" she said dryly.
"Let's go this way." she pointed towards a dark castle with tall spires and a large black gate.
"Hey! What's that all the way over there?" Robin motioned towards the south where something white on the ground.
Titan's Tower:
"Ohhh… I do hope our friends are the ok!" Starfire moaned as she sat next to Silkie and her communicator.
"Don't worry Star, they'll be fine." Cyborg said as he ate some melting ice cream with Cyborg
"Yeah, they got Raven." Beastboy said as he gulped down a scoop of ice cream. Both he and Cyborg decided that eating all the ice cream would be a good idea since the fridge was getting warmer and there was still no power.
"So what if they have Raven?" Cyborg asked
"HELLO? DUDE, she's destined to DESTROY THE WORLD? Wouldn't you think that's powerful?" Beastboy said, waving his arm around.
"Oh, yeah…" and then there was banging on the door.
"Who could that be?" Cyborg asked to no one in particular as they all walked to get the door.
Elecktra's Mind:
"Who knew her mind could be so big?" Robin said, sweating as they continue towards the white thing.
"I think this white thing is just a figure in your imagination." Raven replied
"Why would I imagine a white thing? And you see it too!"
"Fine, I think it's a figure in OUR imagination, HAPPY?" Raven said, getting irritated, she was spending time with Robin more than usual and she hadn't meditated yet.
"Sheesh, don't get your cloak in a twist…" Robin said
"I think we're getting closer."
"REALLY? I'm dying of walking!"
"And people call you the Boy Wonder…" she muttered as they approach a large rock and Robin climbed upon it and sat down.
"I heard that…" Robin said
"Do you like Starfire?" Raven asked
"That was RANDOM!"
"Do you?"
"I do."
"Oh."
"But as a little sister."
"Oh!"
"Why do you ask- OH MY GOD!" Robin gawked at what he saw.
"What? You see more land?" she said sarcastically and smirked
"NO! I SEE Elecktra!"
"WHERE?"
"SHE'S the white thing!"
"Let's go." and they climbed off the rock and ran towards Elecktra. As they got closer, they saw her white dress drenched with her blood.
"Where is she injured?" Robin asked as he took her pulse stopped when he saw her arm. On her arm was the injury but somebody wrote a message.
"Beware …" it said in dripping blood
"I think she's unconscious." Raven said, shaking the bleeding girl gently and then the girl slowly opened her eyes, looking confused.
"Or maybe not…"
"Why are you guys here?" she asked, getting up, apparently unaware of her arm.
"We came here to help you, Cyborg's scanners said that your mind was gone." Robin said gently.
"I don't think it was gone, I think it was unconscious." Raven said.
"You think too much." Robin said as Elecktra smiled but then there was a shake.
"What was that?" Robin asked, nervously
"I don't know" Raven answered, looking around, alert.
"They're coming." Elecktra said, her wide eyes held fear and anger.
"Who's they- whoa!" Robin said but Elecktra pulled him and Raven and began to run. Elecktra changed into her black witch dress quickly and continued to run.
"Why and what are we running from?" Raven asked, aggravated that she was running and saw no threat.
"You'll see."
Titan's Tower:
"Aqualad? Speedy? What are you guys doing here?" Cyborg asked, surprised and shocked.
"The city is disappearing!" Speedy cried out in anguished
"WHAT? That's IMPOSSIBLE!" Cyborg yelled, amazed at what he heard. He then shoved them aside to look for himself.
There was fire everywhere and the buildings were getting burned down. The ocean was receding all the way out to the horizon. There were flopping fish surrounding the tower and small flames kept popping up and roasting the fish.
"DUDE! THIS IS LIKE, A HUGE BARBECUE! AND I'M A VEGETARIAN!" Beastboy cried out, apparently grossed out. Starfire just stood there, staring at the horrors around her.
"Do you think Raven did this? Like in that prophecy of hers?" Cyborg asked, staring at the burning buildings
"I don't think so…" Beastboy answered, staring at a flopping fish.
"I'm not very worry about the ocean. We, Atlantians know it's just a tsunami coming." Aqualad said calmly.
"How big?"
"Big enough to wash out the city."
"How much time do we have?"
"13 hours, give or take."
"13?" Beastboy asked, surprised
"Yeah, 13." Aqualad answered, puzzled.
"AM I THE ONLY ONE THAT WATCHES TOO MUCH TV?"
"Apparently." Speedy answered dryly
"13 is BAD LUCK! It's the worse number in the alphabet of numbers!" he cried out in agony.
"Uh huh…alphabet of numbers?" Aqualad said smiling
"We don't have time to talk! Let's go see what's with the fire at the city!" Cyborg said and ran off. Alone.
"HEY! Y'all gotta help too!" he yelled when he notice nobody was following him.
"We shan't, you haven't said it." Starfire said
"Said what?"
"It."
"WHY? AGH! NEVER MIND! Fine, I'll say it…IT… HAPPY?"
"Not that! You have to say what- screams are heard from the city- Robin says… ok, those screams were freaky…" Beastboy explained but trailed off after he heard screams
"Uh huh…oh. Oh! OH! I GET IT!"
"Finally…" Speedy muttered but Cyborg ignored him and happily said,
"TITANS GO! YAY! I got to say it! Go Cyborg! Go Cyborg! BOOYAH!" and did a little victory jig while the titans ran off.
Elecktra's Mind:
"I STILL don't see anyth- oh. Wow." Raven said and then she saw fire and water erupting from the ground. They clashed and made mountains around the three titans and then Slade robots were everywhere.
"How did Slade get in here?" Robin asked
"Don't know, just fight." Elecktra answered and began to fight.
"Hey! You forgot to wait for me to say 'Titans Go!'!" Robin said, putting a bit while Elecktra laughed and knocked out five robots at once.
"I wonder how are the others holding up… I hope they didn't eat all of the ice cream- HEY!" Robin said but then a robot burnt off his spiky hair with his laser gun.
"NOW I fight."
"He is so weird." Raven commented as she and Elecktra were back-to-back, blasting away robots.
"Which is why I like him." Elecktra whispered and blasted 7 robot heads off.
Jump City:
"Should have known the Fire King was behind this." Cyborg said as he blasted some Slade robots with his sonic cannon.
"Who's the Fire King?" Speedy asked, shooting energy arrows.
"Gee, and I thought I was slow." Beastboy commented as he knocked down ten robots with a swipe of his tail.
"He's the dude who shoots fire from his hands."
"Hmm… Mumbo?"
"WHAT THE FUCK? Does MUMBO shoot FIRE from his hands? I DON'T THINK SO!" Beastboy cried out
"Oh… Mad Mod?" Speedy asked, puzzled, shooting arrow after arrow, constantly
"MAD MOD? WHAT THE HELL? HE CAN'T EVEN SHOOT!" Beastboy yelled in rage as stomped on eight robots
"Would you guys stop arguing and fight?" Cyborg yelled over both of them as he punched the head off of a robot. Then his arm started beeping.
"WHAT ROBIN? This is SO not a FUCKING good time!"
"You guys were invaded by Slade?" Robin asked as he tried to peer around Cyborg's head and saw the city in flames. He sweat dropped as he heard a scream.
"No, the CITY has. Where were you guys anyway? Did you find her?"
"THE CITY?" Robin asked, his face stunned and froze in that expression while punching a robot.
"Is she all right? Why are you guys still in there?"
"THE CITY? he asked, still in the same expression, kicking a robot.
"Are you guys FIGHTING? I see fighting!"
"THE CITY?" he asked, still in that expression, banging a robot's head against a rock.
"Are those SLADE ROBOTS? How did they get in there?"
"THE CITY?"
"GOD DAMN IT! YES, THE FUCKING CITY IS GETTING FUCKING DESTROYED AND LOOKS LIKE SHIT!" he yelled so loud at his arm that all the titans looked at him and so did the robots.
"Um… this is awkward… gotta go Robin, Cyborg out."
Elecktra's Mind:
"RAVEN!" Robin cried out as he punched a robot.
"What?" she asked as she blew up eleven robots. Elecktra was herding all of the robots into a corner and then she yelled at Robin,
"Throw a disc!"
"But what about you?" he asked since she didn't have a bubble to protect her like Raven did.
"JUST THROW IT!" and then Robin threw three discs and they all went off, leaving some robots burning and smoke clouded their vision. Robin then thrust himself into the smoke to find Elecktra dusting herself off. There were robot body parts raining down on them.
"What did you want?" Raven asked coming up behind him as he watched Elecktra in amazement that she wasn't harmed. Elecktra saw his stare and just shrugged, saying,
"Witches have tougher skin and don't get injured easily. We could live up to 120 years and still run 5 miles a day." while Robin just dropped his mouth open but then remembered Raven's question.
"Oh yeah, the city is going up in flames!" he yelled out, remembering what he saw when talking with Cyborg.
"We have to get back!…OW!" he said urgently but a robot arm hit him on the head. Elecktra laughed but asked,
"How? How did you guys get in here in the first place?"
"Let's focus on getting back. ALIVE." Raven said, gesturing to the mountains still surrounding them and the robotic body part debris encasing them.
"I can make a portal but it's going to appear at the same spot Robin and I first came here." she continued.
"So we have to climb this mountain or do we blast it?" Elecktra asked, her hands beginning to glow.
"Wait! We should climb it, that way if there are robots out there, we can sneak up on them." Raven explained
"But that'll take longer!" Robin said as he thought about the city.
"Robots rushing in all at once just after we blast off the mountains will take just as long." Elecktra pointed out.
"But it could kill some robots during the process." Robin said.
"SOME. The keyword is SOME." Raven said and she and Elecktra began to hike up the steep mountains.
Robin knew he was defeated but he stubbornly stood there, discs in hand; ready to throw it at the opposite mountain. Elecktra saw and slid down the mountain, grabbing his arm, muttering,
"Stubborn bitch…" while Robin just let her drag him away.
"Should I? Or should I not? Rather as well do it now than never." Robin thought as pulled Elecktra to him. She widen her eyes, surprise, but then Robin kissed her, passionately which surprised her more but she closed her eyes and melted into the kiss.
"HEY! This is SO NOT the time to be MAKING OUT!" Raven sharp voice broke their kiss as they blushed. Elecktra quickly went to catch up with Raven as if nothing happened, except she still had some pink on her cheeks. Robin said nothing, bowing his head and began to trek up the hill, deep in thought.
"WHY DID I DO THAT?" he thought in fury.
Meanwhile in Hell:
"I'm the Fire King?" Slade said, in dazed, while his master fumed.
"I WAS THE FIRE KING! I'M THE RULER OF HELL AND FIRE! HOW IS HE THE FIRE KING?" he raged while Lucifer sipped some tea, holding Slade's notebook.
"You don't scare me you geek." he said calmly.
"AND I AM NOT A GEEK! I'M TRIGON! THE MASTER OF EVIL! MASTER OF EVIL!"
"Right, and I'm God…" Lucifer sipped his tea, unconvinced
"I'm the Fire King" Slade said in a breathy voice, still in daze.
"Why don't you just make up a ballet for that?" Trigon yelled at his stupefied apprentice. At this, Slade snapped out of his daze and retorted lamely,
"I WILL! HMPH!" and walked off, muttering about pink tutus in his size…
Trigon watched his apprentice walk out, with an odd look and shook his head.
"Demented…at least those robots he made are useful, more useful than he'll ever be…" he muttered but Slade unrepentantly cried out,
"I HEARD THAT! And where are your pink tutus? I can't find them!"
"Geeks… major geeks with a pinch of nerdism" Lucifer muttered as he skimmed Slade's notebook.
"FOR THE LAST TIME, I AM NOT A GEEK! OR A GEEK WITH NERDSAM! WHATEVER THAT IS!" Trigon raged as fire erupted everywhere but Lucifer didn't blink an eye.
"Ooo… nice special effects and it's nerdism NOT nerdsam you dimwit." he just said.
"THESE ARE NOT SPECIAL EFFECTS! THEY CAN BURN YOU!" he ranted on, gesturing to the fire.
"Right… whatever weirdo."
"AGH! WHAT HAPPEN TO THE EVIL SLADE AND THE EVIL DEMON FROM THE MAGICK WORLD? BUT NOOOO, I GOT SOME IDIOT IN A TUTU AND SOME JERK WHO DOESN'T BELIEVE THAT I'M THE DEVIL!" he ranted
"Hello? Do I look like a psychologist?"
"IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK? JUST A PROPER, OBEDIENT APPRENTICE AND SOME SKILLED DEMON WHO COULD DESTROY THE WORLD! INSTEAD, IT'S A FREAK SHOW WITH PINK TUTUS AND SOME IDIOT DRINKING COFFEE!
"It's tea. Blue Tea imported from the Magick World, very rare to find. If you're gonna insult my drink, insult it right."
"AGH!" he cried out, aggravated and then Slade decide to perform his ballet. The lights dimmed and there were multiple spotlights in one spot where Slade appeared. He was wearing a pink tutu on top of his uniform and he put some blush and lipstick on his mask. Slade began to twirl and jump all over, gracefully because of his martial arts training.
"Great… just what I need, a cross dresser…" Trigon muttered while Lucifer clapped proudly for Slade.
"BRAVO! BRAVO!" Lucifer cried out, applauding and there were random roses thrown at his feet.
"Thank you!" Slade said, taking a bow and then announced.
"From now on I want to be a ballerina!" which all Trigon could say was,
"WHAT THE FUCK?"
