Roi-Tan: I know, Robin will never give up! He's Robin!

CalliopeMused: Sorry for any gramitcal trangressions that you picked up on. To be perfectly honest I don't really pay attention to those too often, I know I should but I don't. I agree, Starfire should have more staring roles, it really brings out her character's full potential. Just as a Thought ahve you seen Star Wars Episode 3? -Puts two thumbs up- Primo Movie! That one and Return of the Jedi are without a doubt my favorites. I wonder how a TT/Star Wars crossover would do, hmm. It's deffiently somthing to think about. Ahh don't worry about ramblin on, I digress all the time.

Jadedea: Never fear, they will soon be near! Don't worry Robin won't be a captive for long. About the laser field, her hair tie just came loose and fell, there is no other real expliantion for it.

Anwen: Sorry to keep you waiting, really I am. Got caught up with my other story. here's your update.

cottoncandyclouds:YES! Alien ass will be kicked, just not in this chapter. Sorry.

An apology to all for the eeeemense wait for this update, not to mention that this chapter is noticably short also. I promise next update will be much longer and better. On with the CHAPTER!

Chapter Eleven

A Fellowship Reborn

Both Himora and Konichi looked at Raven curiously. They then felt a small breeze flow throughout the room. Raven opened her eyes and they glowed brightly. "Congratulations Taka I don't usually do this unless I really have to. Sorry if you don't ever wake up from it." Konichi looked a little worried but held her ground. "Azerath…Metrion…Zinnnthos." Black energy in the shape of raven flew from Raven and directly at Konichi. Raven closed her eyes and a psychic link established between the two of them. Raven saw flash after flash moving throughout Konichi's mind. She then came across a vision of what looked like mushroom clouds exploding on both Earth and Tamaran. She the visions faded away and Raven's eyes snapped open. The room had swirled back into view and Himora was now the one bending over her.

"What happened? Are you all alright?" Raven sat up and stared at Konichi who had on the same wide eyed stunned look.

"Get everyone together now. I think there's more going on here then we realize."

"What do you mean," asked Himora. Raven stood up and shook her head.

"Never mind, I'll tell them. You just stay here with her and make sure she doesn't try anything." Raven then glided across the room and phased through the wall. Himora looked over at Konichi. His job couldn't be any easier; she sat there stiff as a board with her eyes dulled by shock and uncertainty. Very hesitantly Himora walked up to her cell and deactivated the force field.

WITH THE OTHERS……………..

The remaining three Titans sat in the living still doing what they could to track down Robin and Blackfire. Starfire irritably tapped the small computer below the large window screen as her search once again came up negative. She rested her chin on her hand and blew a strand of hair out of her face.

"Beast Boy you have made progress yes?" The Tamaranian looked over at him hopefully. He didn't answer her directly but stared sleepily at his screen mumbling to himself;

"Nothing, nothing, more nothing, I'll have a side order of nothing, a one hundred percent chance of nothing, annnnd LOOK! More nothing." Starfire shook her head and stood up to check on Cyborg. She approached him just as he smacked the wall computer and cursed. She recoiled slightly and he mentally scolded himself for doing so. None of the boys, not just Robin, liked swearing in front of Starfire; it's just bad taste to do so in front of a lady.

"Cyborg how have you been faring?" He blew out a short puff of air and shook his head.

"Sorry Star but I can't dig up diddly on them."

"Perhaps we are searching in all the wrong places," hypothesized Starfire. She lightly tapped her forefinger to her mouth and then snapped it. She sat down in her seat and whirled around to face the small screen. Cyborg bent over to look past her shoulder.

"Yo Star what've ya got?"

"You will recall when we first faced the Red X, that is when he was actually Robin, we experienced difficulty in do battle with him because of his cloaking technology yes?" Cyborg scratched his head.

"Yeah, I guess so. But what's that got to do with this?"

"Blackfire has many resources but I have grown doubtful that she would have access to a genuine Psion cloaking device, it is therefore logical to assume that she has modeled her own off of the Red X's technology." By now Beast Boy had come to listen to her. Cyborg looked confused for a moment then suddenly a light clicked on over his head.

"Star you're a freakin' genius!" He went back over to his own screen and began typing in a set of instructions.

"Helllloooo, green changeling lost here." Beast Boy crossed his arms in annoyance.

"If my theory is correct," said Starfire. "Then we should be able to detect Blackfire's ship by scanning low frequency sub harmonics."

"Tell you what Star I'm gong to go ahead and pretend like I understood what you just said," quipped Beast Boy.

"We can find em'," said Cyborg. Beast Boy clapped his hands together.

"There see? That wasn't too hard was it?" Cyborg rolled his eyes just as Raven came flying into the room. She came in so fast that her cape caught on the corner of the table and she tumbled all the way over to where Starfire was sitting. Star immediately bent down and helped her friend up.

"Raven what is," asked Starfire at Raven's rapidity. Raven calmed herself and lowered her hood.

"I just got done performing a telepathic sweep of Konichi's mind"-

"And she's still sane," asked Cyborg amazed.

"Honestly I don't know," said Raven shrugging her shoulders. "But that's not why I came; listen, I think Blackfire and Ghul split up. She left with Robin while he stayed here for something."

"To what end," asked Starfire. Raven shook her head.

"I couldn't get a clear picture of all of it, but I have a strong feeling something terrible is about to happen either here or elsewhere. Starfire, we have to find Ra's Al Ghul before it's too late." Starfire gazed at her Titan colleague uneasily.

"Then, you are suggesting that we abandon our search for Robin in order to pursue the Ra's Al Ghul?" Raven could tell she had inadvertently hit a soft spot.

"No, I'm saying we should do the same as them; split up. A few of us go after Ghul while you take whom ever you need to find Robin." Starfire thought for a moment and bit her lip.

"Ohhh, I do not relish the idea of 'splitting up'."

"Star I don't like it either but Rae's got a point," said Cyborg. "Besides, I wouldn't mind going with ya to get Rob back. It'll be a breeze," he said wiping his hand through the air. Starfire smiled and nodded up at him.

"Thank you Cyborg I would be most appreciative of your assistance. It is settled then; Raven, you will take Beast Boy and Himora to locate the Ra's Al Ghul while Cyborg and I rescue Robin."

"Sounds like a plan," said Beast Boy. "You better keep eyes in the back of your head though, Blackfire can be pretty slippery."

"Indeed," agreed Starfire. "Cyborg will kindly prepare our craft for launch?"

"Aye Aye Captain!" He saluted her and marched off. Raven put her hood back up.

"Beast Boy see if Himora is up to coming." Beast Boy nodded and after morphing into a house cat made off for the brig.

REJOINING HIMORA…………..

He sat down a mere few feet before his fallen pupil, his sword ready for the slightest move against him. For the longest time she simply sat looking like a cow looks at an on-coming train; vacantly. Himora swallowed and leaned a little closer.

"Taka?" He received no response. "Taka please speak to me." It was then that she blinked, very slowly. She lightly shook her head as if coming out a trance and turned her gaze to Himora. A steady tear trickled down her face. She sputtered out a whimper and shook her head.

"Master….forgive me." She then fell forward and he embraced her warmly. She clung to his tunic tightly and wet his shoulder.

"There there Taka, you going to be alright." He patted her on the head and she drew away. Even when her face was all red and puffy she was very pretty for her age. For the first time since he had seen her Taka's natural beauty began to return to life.

"I-I want to tell you everything Master," she sputtered. "But I can't."

"Taka you need not worry about such things now, the important thing right now is that you are no longer lost. You're no longer a pawn, but a student once again. And unlike slave owners, teachers have great respect for their pupils." She smiled sweetly and bowed her head to him.

'Thank-you Master." From a crack in the doorway Beast Boy watched, flabbergasted. He couldn't believe he was seeing this, was this for real. He stood back and blinked a couple of times.

"Ooookay, that was defiantly the last thing I expected to see." Beast Boy sighed at the turn of events. From witnessing it himself he'd be willing to go along with the idea that Taka has returned to normal, so to speak. He was however apprehensive at the thought of how Raven might react to this 'sudden' change of behavior. It was a proven fact; Raven had a hard time with treacherous friends or enemies who claim to have come to their side.

I'm sorry this was very short and not really all that actiony or romantic but I wanted to get back to my other story. Hope you still like it and the next chapter will be a lot longer and better. Laters!
