Me: Well, we've come to the biggest battle of them all. The remaining Brother Hood of Evil vs. The Titans, Slade, and Rocky. I know you hate me for making Slade and Rocky good guys, but its okay that you hate me. I don't care all that much. Sorry to make Slade OOC. I'll let you get to the chapter and I'll catch ya at the end.
ENJOY!
So I caught up with the others and we headed for the Brother Hood of Evil's hideout.
"So what's the plan?" Cyborg asked.
"When we get into their lair," Slade said, "I'll be doing all the talking and I'll tell them that you weren't dead. I'll say that I found you guys and I decided to bring you back to the Brother Hood of Evil. As you're getting taken away, Rocky will give you the signal to start attacking. We'll fight the villains that attack you guys and we'll give it everything we've got."
"What if the plan backfires?" Beast Boy asked. "What if they don't buy your story? What'll happen then?"
"Then start fighting anyways," Slade said. "You just need to make sure that you help each other out when needed."
"Sounds like it'll work to me," I said. "I'm ready to take down the Brother hood of Evil."
"Same here," Beast Boy said. "Then we can go home! I want to see the Tower again."
"Let's just get through this first BB," Cyborg said. "Then we can go home."
We walked on for a long time and we finally found the hideout over the horizon. It took twenty minutes to get to the doors and there was an intercom to the right of the door. Slade punched in a few keys and the intercom came on.
"Why are you here, Mr. Slade?" Mallah asked.
"I'm afraid you forgot to take down the original Titans," Slade said. "They are still alive and I found them. And I need to see the Brain."
Click! Click!
"Please proceed, Mr. Slade," Mallah said.
The doors opened and we walked inside. We walked down a long hallway and we came to the entrance after ten minutes of walking.
"Everyone know the plan?" Slade asked in a whisper.
"Yes," we all answered quietly.
Slade pushed open the door and we walked inside. All the Villains that were helping the Brother Hood of Evil were standing around and we made our way to the Brain.
"The Teen Titans," he said. "Where is the leader?"
"He's dead," I said. "Slade and I killed him, right after we tortured him."
"Mr. Slade," Brain said. "Why are you here?"
"To give you back the Titans so you can kill them yourself," Slade said. "They're all yours."
"Put the Titans with the other heroes," Brain said.
Five villains came up to the Titans and they took them away. Our plan was already working, but something bad happened that complicated things a bit.
"And for the exchange of the Titans, there's something else that I want from you Mr. Slade," Brain said.
"And what would that be Brain?" Slade asked.
"Your son has amazing powers," Brain explained. "Powers that I would be willing to use for the destruction of the world."
"Are you telling me that you want my son?" Slade asked.
"Yes Mr. Slade," Brain said. "That is exactly what I want."
Slade looked down at me and I stared at the Brain, dumbstruck. He wanted to take me so he can use my powers to take the world down? I hope dad wasn't going to say, 'go ahead and take him.'
Boy was I wrong.
"Go ahead and take him," Slade said. I stared at my dad who wasn't looking at me. "He's all yours."
"But Dad-!"
"There's nothing I can do son," Slade said looking down at me. "I never cared about you and you were too dumb to see it. I think you're a disgrace to me. You can take him off my hands for me Brain."
Slade started walking away and he looked at the Titans who looked confused.
"Rocky," Brain said. "If you'll come up here please."
I was still staring after my dad and I felt used. He lied to me about loving me. His plan was to give me to Brain this whole time.
"You lied to me?" I asked making Slade stop. "You used me, you manipulated me, and you sold me out, your own son? Well… if its what you want me to do, then I will. But I'll never forgive you for this. Not now… not ever. Everything was a lie."
I walked up to the Brain and I sat down on his right. I looked down at the ground and I started to cry. Now I knew how Robin felt when Slade kidnapped him. Being blackmailed so Robin would stay his Apprentice.
"Now that we have the ultimate weapon," Brain said, "we can begin the destruction of the world. We start tomorrow."
I looked up at dad again and I noticed he wasn't leaving. What was he doing? His fist clenched up and he turned his head slightly in my direction. He nodded his head and I knew what he had done.
He hadn't lied to me… he lied to the Brother Hood of Evil.
"Titans!" I shouted. "GO!"
BOOOOOOOOOOM!
"What is going on?" Brain asked me.
"So you are dumber than you look," I said.
"Rocky!" Slade shouted. "GO!"
"KAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
As my Kameha Wave shot at the Villains, someone picked me up and they threw me over the edge of the platform we were standing on. I hit the ground really hard and I heard something crack. It hurt to move my back leg and I knew it was broken. I tried to stand up, but Mallah, who threw me in the first place, jumped from the platform right behind me. He grabbed my broken leg and he threw me at the wall. I felt one of my ribs breaking and I could barely breath. Mallah picked me up again and he tried breaking my back. I was able to kick his arm away before he tried it and I fell to the ground again. I dragged myself away from Mallah, but he kept coming back. I fired a Masenko at his stomach and he went flying backwards. I looked up from the floor and the Titans and Slade were doing really well, but they were getting tired. Most of the villains were defeated, but they still had a long way to go. I tried standing up, but it hurt to move. I stood up, but I was hunched over and panting hard. No one noticed that I was hurt and I couldn't heal myself. I heard a loud humming behind me and I tried to see what was making the noise. I turned to the noise and right in front of me was a beam and it had black electricity flowing around it. I started walking backwards away from the beam, but I didn't go far. A black laser beam shot from the end of the beam and-
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
Everyone stopped what they were doing and I couldn't move. The laser hit me dead on and my power was falling rapidly. I coughed up a lot of blood and my breathing was shallow. I couldn't call out for someone to help me and fear struck the core of my soul.
I didn't want to die, not yet; I wasn't ready to die. I couldn't leave my father behind. I felt so cold and alone and no one was there to help me. My whole body hurt and my brain wouldn't register anything around me. Nothing could save me now… not even me. I was going towards the light and I wanted to reach it so badly.
So this is what death feels like, being cold and alone. Why did this have to happen to me? I don't want to die. I don't want to leave.
I was crying and I was almost gone.
"Rocky!"
I don't want to die. I don't want to leave. I want to stay, with my father… with my friends. Please don't take it away from me. Don't let me go.
"You're going to be okay."
It was my dad.
"I… feel so… cold," I said weakly. "Please… don't… leave… me. I… don't want to die."
"I won't leave you," Slade said. He was crying and I wanted so badly to take his crying away. "But you can't leave me either. The Brother Hood of Evil is gone. I shouldn't have done this; I shouldn't have dragged you into this. Please, don't die on me now."
"I'm… not… going to make… it," I mumbled. "Don't… let me go."
"I won't, I won't," Slade said. "But you will make it out alive. I won't let you die."
Slade was rocking back and forth with me in his arms and his crying came out in sobs.
How I wanted to take all his pain away. Wanted to take that pain and give it to someone else. I didn't want to see my father cry and he didn't want to see me die. But there was nothing anyone could do to save me.
"I-I… love you… Dad," I stammered. "Please… don't cry. Don't… leave me."
I was drifting away and I knew that dad knew.
And I wouldn't see another day.
My war… was over.
Me: Sniff! So, so sad. What'll happen once this pain is all over? You'll know next chapter. I hope to catch you then.
