LATTER THAT NIGHT TITANS TOWER
Christine was with Starfire in her room. When Star found out the other Titans were surprised to see Starfire immediately take a liking for the girl. Immediately making friends with her she called Christine to her room for some "girl talk." Raven and Beast Boy had left earlier, Robin and Cyborg were in the main room trying to figure out why Star had changed like this towards Christine, it was like she was out of her depression
"Friend Christine, I wish I could help you with the physical pain, and share that burden, but I sadly cannot, however, I can help you emotionally and mentally," Starfire told her
"Thank you Starfire, you have no idea how meaningful it is to be accepted, despite my mistake," Christine said gratefully
"Why, it wasn't you who made the mistake, it was that imposter who gave you this burden," Starfire declared matter of factly
"Why do you call Robin imposter?" Christine asked
Starfire's face darkened, "He is trying to replace my love, the real Robin, I cannot call somebody else by the name of my lost love…" she said sadly. Christine looked at the broken girl and frowned inside, such tragedy, at such a young age, like they say, power isnt a blessing. She hadn't realized how true that statement was until meeting Robin and hearing Starfire's stories.
"Star, you know what would really help me?" Christine asked
"What dear friend?" Star asked sweetly
"If you don't hurt Robin physically like you did during the practice today," Christine said, referring to Star zapping Robin with a star bolt during the drill
Sighing, Star said, "All right, but only because you asked sweet friend,"
"Thank you,"
THREE DAYS LATTER
Robin and Christine were walking through the garden silently together, this was really the first time they had been left alone. Well almost, Cy was watching from surveillance video cameras stationed around the garden.
"Do you think it will be a boy or a girl?" Christine asked Robin as they walked through the beautiful garden with all its flowers and trees
"I hope the child gets born without any complications, then I will worry about its sex," Robin responded with a nervous chuckle
Christine frowned at him, "I know I am a teen but I am very healthy, I really doubt there will be any complications all right, and quit bringing up the subject, God, all you seem to do is worry, worry that I eat right, worry that I am safe, worried about the baby. I know I am not a super hero but really, there isn't a safer place than Jump City, why cant you trust me to take care of our child…" she said the last part softly
"I am sorry, I just…I don't know, I just don't know how to be a parent, we are still kids and you know how teenage marriages and pregnancies usually end up," Robin said
"You forget, you are a highly paid superhero and I am a brilliant student, we don't need to worry about money or security, our life will be perfect," Christine told him in a soothing voice.
"I think your right, and I think I cant think of anyone else who could better take care of and raise our child than you, I also cant think of anyone else who I would spend the rest of my life with," Robin said as he stared into her deep, blue eyes. There lips were coming together when suddenly
"Back up," Cyborg's voice said over the intercom in a stern voice
Robin and Christine blushed a little from embarasement and continued on there walk
5 DAYS LATTER
My life couldn't be better, friends, a love, and a child on its way, no evil criminal who wants me dead, and strangely enough, Raven has put a spell which conceals Christine so the press hasn't found out! My life is so perfect. Robin thought as he stared at Christine at the table talking to Starfire and Raven, Robin was playing a little videogame tournament with Cy and Beast Boy, he was waiting his turn.
"Dude?" Beast Boy asked
Robin got back to his senses, "Yeah?"
"Um, your turn," Beast Boy said
"Oka-" Robin was cut off by the alarm
"All right, lets see the trouble," Cyborg said as he rushed to the computer. He typed a few letters and as the other Titans crowded they could see he had a frown on his face. "This is real strange," Cyborg said with a little concern
"What is the problem?" Raven asked
"A madman has occupied the same building where Slade made his return as Trigon's slave, and he has set up an almost impossible defense of lasers and weapons, the police cant break in and he is challenging the Titan's to come in," Cy summarized
"Who is it?" Robin asked
"Calls himself Wilson," Cy answered
"Well, lets go deal with him," Beast Boy said
As the Titans prepared to leave Robin went to Christine, "You sure your going to be okay alone in the Tower?" he asked with concern
Christine smiled, "Every time you and the Titans leave on a mission you ask me this, I am fine, besides nobody knows I am here and Cyborg's security system is second to none," she reassured her love
"All right, I will be back," he said with a little smirk, she smiled back
"Enough flirting lets go!" Cyborg yelled from the door. Robin ran out, gave one last look and went to the R-Cycle. Who is this Wilson, what is his angle or game? Robin thought as he rode to the scene
They arrived to see a police barricade that stopped the Titan's. An officer said to something to Cyborg, Cyborg parked the T-Car as he and the other three Titans got out. Robin likewise parked next to them.
"What's the problem?" Robin asked
"His weapons apparently target vehicles first, anyone goes beyond this line," pointing to the barricade, "Is on there own," Cyborg said
"Lets go!" Beast Boy said, anxious to deal with the man who threatened Raven and the Titans three weeks ago
Its been three weeks, he couldn't have been serious, could he? Raven thought, fear of the unexpected happening was bothering her. I don't need more deaths on my conciounce. She thought, she had a feeling that if anyone got hurt it would be her fault
They crossed the barricade and within minutes the Titans were rushing behind a destroyed car
"How do we get through all those lasers and guns!" Beast Boy screamed as the weapons concentrated on where the Titans were hidden.
"I can teleport us inside the building, beyond the defenses this Wilson has set up," Raven said
"Okay do it," Cyborg said quickly
"But, I wont be able to teleport us out, this will take a lot of energy, and to be honest, I don't think I can even fight too well for a while if I teleport us in," Raven warned
"It's a risk we have to take!" Cyborg yelled over the blasts
"I sense something bad is going to happen, I am not sure if teleporting is a good idea!" Raven screamed back, she had a feeling in the back of her mind, she felt the pure evil inside the building and it scared her inside
"Raven, unless you want to die teleport us on!" Cyborg yelled, he was getting frustrated
"All right…" Raven said as a black sphere enveloped all the Titans and they entered the dark building
WILSON'S LAIR
They entered in a large open space and looked around. The room was huge but empty, the floor and walls were all grey, in the corner sat a large computer and a chair. In the chair sat a man, he looked exactly like Slade except his colors were black and grey on his mask.
"Get him Titans!" Cyborg ordered as the Titans charged at their enemy
Why isn't he reacting or moving? Beast Boy thought, then he realized why when he ran into a force field. The Titans were trapped. All the Titans used all their powers but couldn't escape
"Please don't tire yourselves, its no like I am going to kill you, yet," the man said as he stood up from the chair, his voice was like Slade's except a little more youthful
"Who are you?" Starfire asked as she continued shooting star bolts at the force field with no effect.
"Why, I am Wilson, Slade's…aquitance," he said
"Why are you shooting at all those cars, what's your game?" Cy asked
"My game, my game is for you Titans to tell the truth to your newest member…and to the city," Wilson told them
"We have told him the truth at any question he has asked," Raven responded
"True, but have you briefed him on the events leading up to and to the old Robin's death, did you explain to him the Trigon crises, did you tell him about your pasts, did you tell him about Terra's story, did you tell him anything!" Wilson retorted, "And now you lie again to the city, not telling them of that girl living in your house,"
"You hurt her I will murder you," growled Robin, his voice filled with hate and alarm
Wilson sighed, "I wouldn't hurt her or anyone, that is why I sent Raven the letter, however, she decided to ignore it, and now I am put in a situation where I will have to make an example of how lies come back to haunt you, I ask you Rave, Beast Boy, Starfire, Cyborg, how many citizens will die, how hard will I have to push Robin before you start confessing," Wilson said to the shocked, powerless team
"Listen, we never lied about any of those events," Beast Boy pleaded
"Don't play with me, I just named a few, there are so many more lies you Titans have been keeping from this city, but Beast Boy, you can free yourselves and save the day if you answer my question honestly. Don't lie to me," he held out a device which resembled a pen, "This device can tell if you are lying or not," he warned
"All right," Beast Boy said apprehensively
"What do you think of Batman?" the villain asked
Beast Boy was silent for a few minutes when he said, "I think he is a great hero and friend,"
The device beeped several times, shaking his head Wilson said, "Tsk, tsk, I thought you would be honest…but I was mistaken. You and your wife have made another mistake,"
"Don't hurt her!" Beast Boy cried out in fear of what his lie might cause
"Don't feel too guilty, I was going to punish the city and Robin for your lies either way, I just wanted to show Robin how untrustworthy you Titans really are," Wilson said as he picked up a remote
"What is that for?" Raven asked, the other Titans were stunned by what had happened so far, they had been trapped, tricked, and divided by this villain in seconds
How does he know so much? Starfire asked, this question was on the minds of all the Titans as they stared with fear at the villain standing before them.
"I have in my hand, the detination button for six bombs, one planted in each section of the city, so the entire city can suffer for your lies," Wilson said
"There are only five sections, where is the sixth bomb going, downtown?" Robin asked, fear was rising,
"Why don't be stupid, the sixth bomb is going to destroy Titan's Tower," Wilson said on mock surprise at Robin's question
Robin had never felt so helpless or scared or so much hate in his life, "Don't do it Wilson, I will kill you if you hurt her and my-"
"Child, I know, but don't worry, you will get your opportunity to try to kill me, but you will have to play my games first,"
"I wont play any games," Robin continued, anger in his voice, he felt very frustrated at being powerless
"Robin, this wasn't my doing, I warned Raven and her husband, had the Titans been honest to the city I might not be doing this, but I have heard far too many lies being told, too many cover-ups, the truth will set you free," Wilson said as he pushed the button
All the Titans eyes went wide, Robin hade tears in his eyes when they heard huge explosions rip through the city
"Good bye Titans, have fun confessing, after today you will be," Wilson said as he walked away
Well, I guess Wilson was the twist huh, will Christine die, will she survive, how will the Titans react to the carnage, stay tuned to find the answer
