Hiya peoples,
As always drop in and review. It will take 4 seconds of your time and make my day happiful. Um…not much to say so…
On with the show!
"Good morning Raven."
"Hardly good."
"You didn't sleep well?"
"You try sleeping while tied to a wall," she snapped. Not to mention she was hungry.
"You know why I'm here." He pulled the needle from his belt.
Raven closed her eyes and smiled. She was waiting for this.
Forcing all her energy, the chains broke and Raven used her powers to push Slade back. Slade smashed against the wall dropping the needle. He was up in a matter of seconds.
"Get her!"
A horde of robots circled her, their cannons ready. Raven's eyes widened and her arms dropped to her sides. How did Slade make so many robots? She had defiantly underestimated him. She may not have had enough energy to fight all of them but she would try. Oh yes, she would try.
She grabbed a pole with her powers and threw it at the closest robot and ducked nearly being hit by a laser blast. Diving out of the way of a fist she used her powers to slash through another robot behind her. She jumped up trying to evade another laser blast but choked back as her cape caught on something. She turned, swinging at what she thought was another robot but her fist was caught
"You've made a big mistake Raven."
He twisted her around, pinning her arm behind her back and kicked the back of her legs, pushing her down to her knees.
Slade moved in front of her.
"You need to learn about gratitude. I could have killed you, I could have tortured you."
"What are you talking about?" she spat, "This is torture."
A foot to her stomach sent Raven to her hands and knees.
Slade kneeled beside her, grabbed her hair and forced her head up. But instead of using the liquid inside the needle he pulled out another capsule from his belt filled with a blood red liquid.
"Maybe this will teach you a little more respect."
He put the needle under her chin and put the liquid in her body.
At once Raven's body from the neck down became numb. She fell motionless to the ground. Trying to push herself off the hard metal floor Raven only got satisfaction of knowing that her arms wouldn't respond to her will.
"Did you actually think that you could fight me? Did you actually think you could get away?"
He raised his foot to make another blow but as an explosion appeared in the doorway Slade's attention turned to his invader.
"Let her go!"
Slade looked at Robin and laughed. "You are in no position to make demands."
With lightning speed, Robin pulled three birdaranges from his belt and held them between his fingers. Slade shook his head, casually took out a blaster, and pointed it at Raven.
"You move and she dies."
Robin's eyes widened. "What?"
"Drop your weapons or she will die."
The birdaragns fell with a large clang as he dropped them to the ground.
"Now take off your belt."
He did as he was told and slowly put his belt on the ground next to his birdarangs.
"Good," Slade said not taking his blaster off Raven, "I should've known there would be less resistance. I was almost ready for a fight."
"What do you want?"
"You're the detective. Why don't you make a prediction?"
"I'm not going to be part in your disgusting plans."
"Oh well, I guess I won't be needing Raven anymore." He charged up his laser.
"No wait!"
"You changed you mind already? An apprentice should be decisive and absolute."
"A-apprentice?"
"Yes, we will continue where we left off. Except we will make some new…arrangements."
Robin stood frozen on the spot, staring first at Slade then at Raven.
"Apprentice," Slade called.
"Robin…don't…don't worry about me," Raven forced out. She could feel her consciousness slipping. "Just get…get out of here."
He didn't answer. He just stood there looking at her.
"Don't worry. I'm not going to leave you."
Surprised, Raven looked around. It was Robin's voice but he showed no sign of speaking.
"…Robin?"
"Slade can't hear us now. I'll get you out of here. I promise."
He was talking in her head. Since when did Robin know telepathy?
Raven's vision blurred and his final thought she fell into deep darkness.
Slade watched them suspiciously. "Apprentice," he repeated.
Robin slowly walked down the stairs and stood in front of his enemy.
"Take her to her room and make sure she is chained to the wall. Oh, and tell my robots to make them tighter this time."
Robin kneeled down and picked up Raven.
"Remember, if you disobey any order at any time, I will kill her," he promised.
"Yes, Slade."
"Master," Slade corrected, "You will refer to me as 'master.' Oh, and after she is returned to her quarters, do change into your uniform."
"I'm sorry Raven," Robin whispered.
"Do you understand apprentice?"
"Yes…master."
A/N: To all my faithful reviewers…Wicked Azar: Oops, sorry. I didn't mean for it to be that big of a cliffy. Well I guess this chapter is one too. (sorry)
SabrinaRocks: 3+4? Wow, I'm glad you liked those. I didn't think they were good enough. Hopefully I'll be able to update sooner…
Bunnysquirrel: Have Raven act like she was dead? How could I do that? But I couldn't kill Raven. I was sad when Terra died, and I hate her! (Sorry Terra people) Maybe I could use on of Slade's toxin thingies. And what are you talking about. I love your rantings! TTFN ta ta for now!
Bunnyraven: Hey chill. I don't even like bunnies that much to begin with…(they have big ol' hunken feet that kick you in the stomach!) But a not so bunny looking bunny would be torture!
Titanfan: Me like that you like…
Infamous One: I have no hard feelings against Slade, but it seems he's like 30 in the TV show. Ha, no matter! Slade(or Deathstroke or Terminator) is still the coolest villain even if he's 60. In the comics he has a sword! Can you get any cooler than that?
Hhgbh: Well, maybe that will happen if she doesn't keep getting her poison. The prophecy was the best butt whooping I had seen in a long time. It was awesome! Well yes, Frank is kinda a perve but I needed someone who was annoying. He kinda reminds me of one of my cousins…
RobinisDaBomb: Wow I hate it when that happens. Then I have to start writing. Maybe I'll read one of your stories sometime. Do you have any one-shots? If anything, those are my favorites. If not those are good too. Hope your readers are happy.
Chica de Los Ojos Café: Yes twice in a row! I'm on fire! No, no, that was a nice try. I almost told you. You are a sneaky one….I'm watching you…
