Disclaimer: I do not own Teen Titans I do however own Pyra… sort of….

Ok umm… yeah I haven't updated in forever seems I have a bit of writers block umm so yeah here you go…

Robin whipped out his communicator and began running towards the door, "Raven, Star, BB, Cy, trouble! We have an intruder I repeat, we have an intruder!" he turned around when he noticed that Pyra wasn't following him, "Uhhh are you going to come?"

"Oh so it's like that, huh? As soon as you get in trouble it's, 'we need your help Pyra, save us please!' but an hour ago you were going to kick me off the team!"

"Pyra please, we don't have time for this! Just come on!"

"And what if I said no?" Just then the door blasted open in a fiery explosion.

"Well my dear, then I'm just going to have to come get you."

"Slade." Robin hissed.

"Why, hello Robin, I have another message to deliver-"

"Raven's not here."

"Oh no, we're almost quite through with that one, seems as if this little girl is standing in our way of achieving the ultimate goal: destroying the world."

"I'm what now?" Pyra asked, very, very confused. She did not even seem alarmed at the fact that a psycho maniac was standing before her, able to deflect every one of her attacks.

"My dear, you hold the key, and it is my personal goal to annihilate you."

Robin chose this moment to attack; he swung out his bo-staff and charged at Slade. It looked as if he was in the clear, and then Slade swung his hand out in what looked to be a feeble attempt at dodging the oncoming attack. Robin's face bore a smirk when this happened; he knew his staff was going to connect with the villain's head. Just before the pole struck, it melted and Slade had Robin in his clutches. He simply tossed the boy out of the open door, then threw a bomb over his shoulder. The bomb attached itself to the ceiling and the debris from the explosion blocked the entrance.

"Argh, it'll take me an hour to move all this debris by myself!" Robin yelled from the other side of the main room. He took out his communicator, "Titans, come in! Titans, come in! We've got an emergency situation here at the tower, I repeat, we have an emergency-"

"Yeah, we get it already," came Beast Boy's muffled reply, "Look we've got some problems of our own, these giant fire monsters are tearing up downtown! So if you could send Pie out here that'd be real helpful!"

"Unfortunately that seems rather impossible at the moment; she's in a one-on-one battle with Slade,"

"WHAT! WHY AREN'T YOU IN THERE HELPING HER!"

"Don't you think I'd be in there if I could! Slade's got the doorway blocked!" There was only fuzz at the other end of the line, then a scream, and then a loud crash. Robin shook his head and got to work moving all of the debris from the doorway.

"Now that he's out of the way, we can… talk."

"The only talking I'm going to be doing is with my fists!" She threw a flaming punch at him, which he easily dodged.

"Now, now. Is that the best you can do? You've gotten sloppy over the last year, I suppose. Don't you remember anything I've taught you?"

"You didn't teach me anything!"

"Ah, so you're in denial. That is not a good thing. It seems you're always running from your past."

"Shut up!"

"Now my dear, that's no way to talk to your master."

"You are not my master! You never have been and you never will be!"

"Perhaps I should refresh your memory." He ran towards her at breakneck speeds, but Pyra was expecting that. She jumped out of the way just in time to get hit with a kick to the legs. It sent her flying to the ground, where Slade came up and towered over her.

"My, my. You have gotten sloppy. I suppose when you're my apprentice again, you'll have to go through training all over again, hmm?"

"I. Was. Never. Your. Apprentice!" she said right before she did a spinning kick to Slade's legs making him fall to the ground. While he was down she tried to get at least one good burn in. Unfortunately, it backfired in the form of smoke, which sent both of them flying in opposite directions.

"Now you should know that that power isn't going to work. Why not use your other powers?"

Pyra gasped, "H-how did you-?"

"I know everything, my dear."

"You don't know anything a-"

"Bout you? Oh but I do, child I do. You are evil, Pyra, born of evil. Your past haunts you, and you have based your life on secrets. You're not really the person you pretend to be here in the tower, and it's all thanks to those earrings you're wearing."

"Liar!"

"You cannot run from the truth, Pyra, or should I say-"

"Pyra!" Robin yelled as he charged into the room, throwing three of his freeze disks and a bird-a-rang at Slade, who dodged them simply by jumping out the window. "Until next time, Pyra. Until next time," Slade said right before he disappeared.

Twenty minutes later, the rest of the Titans ran into the living room. Save Cyborg, they were all worn out, and all could barely get a three-word question out.

"Where…is…Slade?" Beast Boy panted.

"Gone. He really freaked Pyra out, though; she hasn't said two words since her battle."

"No way, not Pyra! She barely got freaked out by 'Wicked Scary IV' !" Cyborg practically yelled.

"Please friend, I have an ache of the head. No more yelling, please…" Starfire whispered.

Meanwhile, Beast Boy had gotten something to drink, had been sitting down, and now felt refreshed. "I'll go talk to her," he volunteered.

"You sure? She can get a little…iffy when she's upset."

"'Iffy'? That's putting it mildly! Remember when she welded me to the door because I stole the remote from her! It took you guys forever to get me down!" Cyborg laughed

"Ah, whatever…but if you guys hear me scream…just try to come before I get all my hair burned off, 'kay?"

"Sure Beast Boy we'll come if we hear you screaming." Robin said sarcastically. But Beast Boy did not hear him; he was already out the door, headed for Pyra's room.
