Chapter Three: Traitors to Trigon

The four Titans dashed after Kiyu and Rei, towards Raven's room. When Iki and Isei, the two wolves, glanced back and saw them closing in, they barked out what sounded very much like, "They're coming!"

Some unknown force inside him drove on Robin. He had a feeling he should be getting tired, but his brain and body felt like water, with no feeling or grasp of physical limits. Behind him, he could hear Beast Boy and Cyborg panting.

Abruptly, they skidded to a stop in front of Raven's door. But someone had constructed a strange, shimmering shield around the door—no one could get in. The friends began bashing away, but it was useless.

"Well," grunted Cyborg, driving his shoulder in to the barrier in between words. "Maybe," slam "If," slam "That girl," slam "Can copy our moves," slam "She can copy," slam "Someone else's!"

Suddenly, a voice issued from the other side of the door.

"Let them in, Kiyu."

The girl seemed to have obeyed, for the Titan's next slam sent them sprawling into the room.

Robin jumped back up, and froze.

Raven was sitting up in bed, eyes closed, but with a light smile on her face. Rei was perched on the edge of the mattress. Kiyu was standing near the door, a smirk on her face. The sisters looked smug and amused, but not evil or murderous.

"Robin?"
He walked slowly to the bedside, pausing in front of Rei.

"Who…?"
The pale girl smiled. "Just because we're—what did Raven call us? —'Trigon's Kin' doesn't mean we're evil. Look at her." She gives Robin a piercing look. "I have a feeling you trust her." He reddened slightly, but then turns back to Raven. "Is she going to be alright?"

Both girls averted their eyes. "Um…we…we're not really…um…sure."

Robin stared at her. "What do you mean!"

Kiyu shuffled and looked down at her feet. "Ok…Raven has six cousins. We're two of them. But we're not nearly as…"

"Evil?" asked Cyborg.

"Crazy?" questioned Beast Boy.

"Corfingoble Slarblefasts?" (A/N I have no clue how to speak Tamaranian, obviously)

Everyone stared at Starfire. "Um…right. Anyway, the other four—Circi, Larel, Hiyd, and Hiss—are malevolent, conceited, vindictive, and generally, not good people."
"So, basically, you guys are…traitors?"

"And proud of it!" Rei nodded fiercely.

"Can I please continue? Anyway, Raven and her cousins each have a different power—I'm guessing you know that."
"What can the others—?"

"I'm getting to that. Anyway, Circi—she curses stuff. I mean, serious curses. Ever heard of King Tut?"
The Titans blink. "Wow."

"Exactly. And Larel, he makes dark objects. That's were the Akuba coin came from. And that's what made Rae sick. Larel made the coin, and Circi cursed it."
Robin's face darkened. "So it's their fault."
Rei glanced at him, her brow furrowed. Then her face cleared and she laughed softly.

Everyone looked at her. "What?"
"Nothing." she said, smirking. "Let's just say I've put two and two together and come up with…" a superhero-sized crush, she thought. But she didn't continue out loud.

"But what power do the Hiyd and Hiss have under their control?" asked Star.

"They're master thieves. Hiyd is a basic transformer."
"Like me and those wolves?" inquired BB.

"Not exactly. He's like, brains and brawn all in one. He can turn from super-smart weakling to super-strong imbecile."
Kiyu nodded. "And Hiss can turn into either a liquid or gas-like substance. Useful for getting through small spaces, and as an added 'bonus' the gas she turns into is poison."

"So, a curser, an evil-object maker, a transforming dude, and someone who can sneak into almost anywhere. Great." Said Cy. Then he turned to the Titan's leader. "Hey Robin, what's wrong?"

Robin was sitting by Raven, an odd look on his face. Rei smirked again.

"And what about Raven?"

The girls became awkward again. "That's just it. Circi's curses-they're hard to break. And it doesn't help that Larel used a bunch of dark objects—probably ones that Hiyd and Hiss stole—to make the Akuba coin."
"So…"

"So…" Kiyu and Rei both glanced at each other, looking nervous. "It's quite possible…that she could die."
