Disclaimer: I don't own Robin, Raven, or any other Teen Titans, nor do I own the show.
Summery: Lately, I've been debating on whether or not to have split viewpoints halfway through this story, half Raven and Half Robin. I mean- it might make things interesting eh? But don't worry, all of that would happen later on in the story if ever.
Oh yeah- guys- this is the chapter with quite a bit of explicit content.
Also- I don't know if I made this clear enough to you all in my last chapter, but this is not some weird StarFire Robin fluff story where I make the ending be Robin and StarFire kissing, after Robin "overcame" his love for the forbidden Raven. In case you all haven't noticed, (Note Raven's Despair) I don't DO happy endings. I might make an exception here- but I haven't decided yet. Perhaps with more reviews I might be inclined to make it a happy ending…
Ah the indignity- shameless self-promotion. Read on For Chapter 2:
((Chapter 2))
"To See It's Fruit"
""Love is as contagious as a cold. It eats away at your strength, morale… If everything is imperfect in this world, love is perfect in its imperfection."
-The Seventh Seal-
I inhaled her sent, a mixture of sweet lotus flowers and burnt candles, the result of her nights awake sipping tea and reading by candlelight. Her warm smooth skin felt so good rubbing against my body, as I brought my right hand down her back, tracing her shape. Every curve was beautiful, every arc and arch on her body a masterpiece. I kissed her cheek and continued to move downward, lightly kissing her neck, and then her collarbone. But as I did- in the darkness I saw a glint of her teeth. She was smiling at me. I felt her hand gracefully caress my inner thigh, and then move upward, where she tickled my sides with her light touch.
Her hair was soft, and delicate, and as I ran my fingers through it, she brought herself closer to me from under the sheets of my bed. Soon, her lips were upon mine, and her tongue prodded into my mouth. Lightly, it rubbed against its roof and all around the inside. She brought her hands up from my waist and slid them up my bare chest, rubbing them with her electric touch, hoping to excite me.
Soon, her hands moved downward, along with her face towards my lower torso. "Raven?" I questioned as she continued to massage my body. Lower and lower she went until almost she was almost on top of… "Raven?"
"Shhh…" She whispered as she reached up and put a finger over my mouth. "I want to please you Robin…" She said smiling.
I couldn't help but gasp when she brought her face down and placed her mouth around my hard erect dick. "Raven…." I moaned as she sucked. "Raven….." I couldn't control myself, as I tried hard not to yell at all. I bit my lip and held to the bed. "Ra…Ra….Raven…." I shut my eyes tightly, as Raven reached up and covered my mouth laughing. Through her wet fingers I moaned as she continued to suck harder…and harder….
But then I woke- sweating profusely, my sheets to my bed a mess, tangled up at the foot of my bed. It had all been a dream, hadn't it been obvious to me? Utterly disgusted with myself, I walked to the edge of my bed and sat, the moonlight lighting the outline of my half naked body. I tried to shake off my dream, to somehow forget what I had just imagined, and in sick way fantasized… But I couldn't.
That was the one of the dozens of times I had had that same dream in the last two weeks after the Czar's capture. What kind of perverted sicko was I? Thinking of Raven ever doing that…. and to ME of all people….I was her leader, and her teammate. Besides the fact, I loved StarFire didn't I? Of all people wouldn't my dream have been about her instead?
Inwardly, I knew that what was happening didn't make sense at all. The only explanation as to why I had that dream was the Czar Muriel. He was the one who made me doubt at all my love for Star. Somehow, was he responsible for my dream? Was he controlling my dream process and seemingly reading my every thought from jail?
No, I knew that that idea was absurd and ridiculous. How could one man control my emotions from jail of all places? And furthermore, why would he even want to? Was he trying to break my composer as the Titans Leader? Was he trying to sabotage and interfere with the Team?
The Dream itself didn't make sense. In it I was enjoying what Raven was doing to me. How could I ever enjoy it? She wasn't my girlfriend, StarFire was.
I had to find the answers to the questions that plagued my mind. Quickly, I dressed in my standard uniform, and checked to clock in my room before I left: 3:00 A.M.
In the garage of the Titans Tower, I climbed onto my motorcycle, and strapped on my helmet, all the while revving the engine. As soon as I started the bike, I was off- riding across town to the place I knew I had to visit, the City High-Security Penitentiary.
Long locked up for the night, I had to arrange with the night guards a visit to the Czar's private solitary cell at the front desk. A tall, dark haired guard met me half way through the walk through the lined cell hall, leading me towards the Czar.
"He's in the last unit, Unit F, confinement. The walls are all lined with special metal bars, steel plates are in the floors and ceiling, magnets are in each corner, and we had a specialist come in to place binding spells in the walls. The Titans have nothing to worry about, the guy's shut tight." The guard explained.
"We're not worried about the security here sir, I'm just here to ask the Czar some questions." I answered.
"At three in the morning?" The Guard asked skeptically. "I mean really Robin- we have the guy in a straight jacket to stop him from using his powers. He's not going anywhere."
"I figure I can catch him off guard this early, and maybe get some real answers." I lied a little embarrassed. I should have figured a visit that early would have raised some suspicion. But I couldn't have been able to wait; I probably would have been driven mad wondering. My questions couldn't have waited.
"I see. Well that makes sense." The guard nodded, seemingly believing me. Finally, we reached the darkest end of the hallway, where we were met by a very large heavy metal door. The guard walked over, and inserted the key into the door, then typed in a code on the keypad next to it. A serious of loud clicks were heard, as the metal blocks hidden within the door retracted, letting the door swing open. The Guard and I both stepped into another chamber, where we walked up to a large thick Plexiglas wall that separated the Czar from us.
"I told you the security here was state of the art." The guard stated, as he walked up to the wall and typed in another code. A chair appeared from out of the floor, next to the part of the wall that had holes for ventilation and conversation. "You need me to stay?"
"No." I responded, as I sat down and looked at the dark figure floating in the corner of the room. "Outside of the cell is enough." The guard nodded once more and left, locking to door behind him.
"Czar." I called as I stared at his shape. "I need to talk to you." The floating figure turned, to reveal the face of the Czar I had never seen before, his real face. Pale yet young, I was surprised to see the face of a young man, framed by long tied back black hair. He was wearing a white straight jacket, just like the guard had told me.
"Me Robin?" he questioned. "You want to talk to me?" A laugh escaped his lips. "Now that's something I would have paid to hear." Slowly, still sitting in with his legs crossed and floating, he hovered over to the clear wall, and looked straight at me. Strangely, he reminded me of Raven, the way he was sitting. "What do you want to talk about Robin?" He questioned raising one eyebrow.
"I want to know the real reason you attacked the city." I said trying to figure out a way to get him to tell me if he was behind my dream. Perhaps I could get him to admit he also was a dream shaper, and was making me think these horrible things about Raven.
"I heard of The Teen Titans from afar, and I wished to come here and see if you all were as great as they advertised. 'Perhaps', I thought to myself, "I can kick their ass.'" The Czar finished laughing at his own joke. "And I did didn't I?"
"Until Raven whapped you up side your distorted head." I pointed out.
"Oh that was a cheap shot." The Czar said frowning. "I was busy insulting you while she did that."
"She still defeated you."
"Yea you're right she did- the damn whore. Too damn pretty but powerful for her own good." he scowled. "I always did say that getting attached to your enemies was a bad thing."
"Attached?" I inquired confused.
"Oh please- she was hot, fine-looking would be an understatement."
"Hot?" I said shocked.
"Yes Hot. You know, striking, gorgeous, Attractive, beautiful, eye-catching, stunning, all the works. Jeez- what do I have to give you here, a dictionary? Maybe a thesaurus." He mocked.
"You liked her?" I said still trying to shake my surprise and astonishment off.
"Didn't she tell you guys about it? My God, I used to whisper the dirtiest things into her ear when I got close during the fights." The Czar said laughing once more.
"No." I muttered. At this response he raised his eyebrows.
"Really! Well she certainly keeps things to herself doesn't she?" The Czar snickered. "You know, I remember one fight when she was especially angry with me…" he paused, then brought his face close to the glass. "So I lead her to an ally way to fight, and got so close…" his voice lowered to a whisper, "That I slammed her against a wall and slide my hand up her leg!" With this comment, The Czar was flat out cackling. Disgust mixed with bewilderment filled me.
"Really Robin- you should have seen the way her eyes rolled into the back of her head! For a moment she couldn't control herself!"
"Shut Up!" I screamed as I jumped up from my chair and hit my fists against the wall. "Shut Up- Shut Up- Shut Up!" I breathed heavily, blanketed with revulsion for both the Czar, and for myself as well.
In response to my outburst, the Czar stopped laughing and only smirked. "So I was right then Robin. In your mind right now all I see is her face, and her body…naked. You came her not for answers of why I attacked your city, but for answers to your own mind. You DO like her don't you?" he affirmed.
"You don't know what you're talking about." I spat out, feeling so exposed. I tried to calm my breaths, as I looked up at his smiling face. "I love StarFire, not Raven. You're the one doing this to me- you're the one controlling my mind." At this another laugh came from the Czar.
"I only read minds Robin- I don't control them. I can't make you feel any way about certain things or certain people. You're the one picturing Raven naked here." He added.
"I AM NOT!" I roared, stepping back from the glass completely. But I knew I was lying, and I knew the Czar knew this as well. The Repulsive thing about the whole situation was the I WAS picturing Raven Naked, I was thinking about her right then and there. I turned and punched in the code to the door I knew was correct, and left the Czar, who behind me, was laughing his ass off.
Leaving the Jail, I jumped back on my Bike, disappointed, confused, and lastly, sickened and appalled at myself.
Back at the Tower, I found myself unable to sleep. It was still after 3:00 A.M., I should have been able to fall straight asleep. But I sat on the couch of the Titans main living room, my face buried in my hands. For weeks I hadn't been able to sleep like this, and for countless weeks I had had these dreams and thoughts about Raven almost every day and Night.
I was perverse, I was sick. I found myself comparing the Czar's words to my own thoughts. I felt just like him. Was I as distorted and depraved as the Czar himself? Had I lowered myself to his level? A sigh escaped my lips.
Sleepless Night after Sleepless Night, I realized this problem I had was serious. I was haunted by her voice alone. I was utterly captivated by her presence. How could I lead a team like that?
Behind me, I heard footsteps, but didn't bother to turn around. If The Czar wasn't responsible for my thoughts and dreams then who was? At that time, I couldn't stand to believe that I myself inwardly really liked her, and had no feelings for StarFire at all. Such an idea would have shaken the very foundation of my own reality I had come to know.
"You're awake again tonight Robin." I heard a dark voice behind me declare with quite affirmation. "You've been like this for many weeks." Concern? Was that concern I heard in her voice? I turned to see Raven standing behind the couch, holding a cup of steaming hot tea.
"It's nothing." I claimed turning from her. Raven walked from the steps behind to couch to the other side, where she gracefully sat next to me.
"It is something Robin, I sense it within you. You are troubled by something, something dark that lies within you." With this, see took her first sip of her tea, and with a startling realization I recognized the Tea's scent; Lotus. A wave of shock washed over me. It way the exact way she smelled…. No. I stopped myself from thinking about that. I mentally put up blocks in my mind, and ignored the sweet scent that filled my nostrils.
"This darkness you speak of Raven- It haunts me. I can't stop thinking about it, dreaming about it….I think the Czar did this to me…" I murmured. In my mind, I felt Raven tugging at it, trying to read my thoughts. But I blocked her out successfully.
"The Czar cannot control thoughts and emotions, nor can he haunt someone with thoughts and dreams. These are caused by your own mind." She said staring out into the darkness of the living room.
"I Know." I acknowledged, startling Raven and catching her off guard. Her eyes widened as she turned to me. "I went to see him tonight." Suddenly Raven's eyes slanted.
"Why did you do that?" She questioned, obviously worried.
"To see if he was the one doing this to me." I said looking straight at her. Silence was her answer, as she gazed at me blankly, noticeably captivated by her own thoughts. Her eyes were glazed over, and I could tell that she was preoccupied with memories; memories I could tell involved the Czar.
"I know about what he used to do to you Raven." I told her, trying to get her to snap out of it. "The Czar told me everything. I understand why you didn't tell us. You were ashamed, you didn't want us to know…." I tried to explain to her as I noticed her eyes and face form a scowl. But before I could finish my sentence, I was cut short.
"How dare you." I heard her interrupt, in a low almost seething and intense voice; so angry it was almost trembling. "How dare you think you know what I went through. How dare you assume my reasons for not telling you." She stood up, and her eyes glowed an intense white, threatening and bold. "You know nothing of what you speak of."
"But I do know what you went through…" I stuttered.
"No- YOU DON'T." she screeched. "You have no idea what it is to fear a fight, because you know that you might be violated each time but a perverse psycho. You have no idea what it is to be touched by someone so forbidden, and so evil, and in the end- to like it…" With that, she turned away from me and walked away, her cloak trailing behind her.
She hated me. She hated me for knowing what she had felt, and for knowing what she had really gone through. But beyond this hate, what bothered me more was the fact that her words resonated so deeply within me. I did understand what it was like to want something forbidden; I did understand the fight she inwardly had with lust and love, because I myself was the same way. I was fighting to end my lust for her, my love for her, and my forbidden attraction to her.
We both were alike in our inward tortures.
