Hiya Peoples,

OMG, I am sooooo sorry everyone. My mom and dad got rid of the computer so I didn't have internet for about a month. I almost died. But let's not dwell on the past shall we? I know it's short but I'll post the next chapter in a couple of days. I promise.

"Communicators are off, tracking devices are shut down. I can't find them anywhere."

"Oh my friends, please be ok…"

Raven woke again uncomfortably pinned against the wall.

"Looks like our little birdie has woken up."

Robin silently nodded his head.

"That's your cue. Remember, no contact with the Titans whatsoever. I don't want them to even see you. If you do, you know what will happen." Slade motioned to Raven's cell.

Robin raised his fists and got ready to attack. "If you touch her I'll-"

"Na uh uh," Slade waved his finger at Robin, "you'll know what'll happen."

Two robots aimed their blasters at Raven's chest.

Robin growled but nevertheless lowered his fists.

"Good boy. Now I might as well tell you what you are going to steal."

Robin grimaced. He remembered. The rush, the thrill. He never wanted to go back to that. Yet here he was again. Stealing for a madman…

"It's a micro chip of sorts. Able to adapt to any brain. Now what I'm going to do is…"

"I don't care what it is. Just tell me where it is."

"Eager aren't we? Well, the coordinates are in your communicator I gave you. Have fun."

He turned and towards the exit.

"I will."

Robin's feet padded lightly in the bushes near the main gate. He sighed. Slade didn't give him an entry point or even a weakness in one of the defenses. He would just have to make it up as he went along. Taking a ninja star from his belt (Slade had taken his birdarangs away saying they were little 'toys') and threw it at the nearest gas tank. Instantly, the dark brown liquid began leaking out triggering the alarm.

Three guards rushed over to the vat shouting in their walkie-talkies. One of them, Robin guessed was the chief, bent to the ground and picked up Robin's ninja star. This was his chance. Silent as night, Robin jumped on in the air and landed on the chief's shoulders, crashing him to the ground. He jumped up and kicked the left sentry in the face. Looking over his right shoulder, he back-kicked the last guard into the wall.

Another alarm sounded louder than the first and a voice broke through the speaker. "There has been in a breach in sector 5, close the gates."

Robin rolled his eyes in frustration. Why did people make things to hard? He kicked an air vent open and slid in barely avoiding a searchlight. A cold blast of air met his face as he crawled slowly through the vent, trying to make as little noise as possible.

He guessed he was close to the chip when he heard voices.

"What did you find? Who was it?"

"Yes, who was the perpetrator?"

Robin froze. He couldn't mistake that voice. They were on the case quicker than he would have expected. He smiled to himself. He had trained them well. But Robin's pride quickly turned irritation. He couldn't be seen. So all he had to do was wait…

And wait…

The first thing Robin noticed was the cold. Since the wind was against his back, his feet froze first. His legs were next to freeze but he couldn't shift in fear of alerting the Titans and because the vent was too small.

After two hours, the Titans finally left, sure that there was nothing in the laboratory. Robin cursed their thoroughness. Maybe he had trained them too well.

As soon as they left the room, he punched open the vent and less than gracefully landed on the hard floor. His legs were numb and it took a few minutes to get feeling to stand up. So he stumbled over to the computer and opened the drawers to the desk. He was pressed for time. Any moment now…

At last he found it. He was surprised. It was no bigger than his fingernail and was as thin as paper. What in the world would Slade need this for…

The door suddenly opened and Starfire came in facing the hallway she came from.

"I will join you shortly, I thought I heard…" She turned and froze. For a fraction of a second she looked confused, then scared. "Slade?" She panicked and held a starbolt in her hand.

But Robin took no chance to see if she recognized him or not. He threw a smoke ball at the ground and jumped back up through the vent.

A/N: Reviews, reviews, yay!

Chica De Los Ojos Café: Ah! Look away! Look away! You're getting better (which is sorta a bad thing…)

Red: Wow, it's an honor

Girl Wonder 2005: yeah, who says that two different shippers can't get along? Wait, it was expected or not expected? I spent like 10 minutes trying to figure it out and I am more sonfused than at the beginning.

SabrinaRocks: Thanks, sorry I couldn't update sooner, the next chapters will come quicker though. TTFN ta ta for now

Hhgbh: I suppose he could…Well, Slade does have al those robots surrounding them from Raven's fight. It would be hard for Robin to fight and protect Raven. I don't know…it's the best I can come up with.

Kirril: Aw, not yet? Well if you do make the first chapter let me know although you've probably made it already, I haven't been here in a while. I don't know, I always liked writing one-shots. Actually I have one or two I'm going to post up in a few minutes after this.

Furubafun: Oh, that's good. I've been kinda worrying about that. Alright, off you go then, Bye for now!

Linwe Melwasul: Well, I didn't mean for it to be a cliffie…well, not really anyway…ok maybe just a little. As for bunnies I like them too but when they attack you they aren't that fluffy anymore. And then you have to chase them down the street and almost get run over…

Xcloudx: your reviews are good so far

Angelwolf6547:sweet, dude…: D

Bunnysquirrel: Yeah, I can't stand when someone dies. And she was so sad. And if you saw the new episode, I didn't feel so bad anymore cause now I hate her more than ever. (sorry terra peoples) And since you didn't have a rant for me now you owe me one.

Infamous One: Guns, guns and more guns. Those are always good to have. And of course a bo-staff is a must. As for the bell boots I have to admit those are pretty awesome. I know, black and orange, good fashion sense.

Insanity 101: Sorry it took so long. But don't worry the next one will be quicker.

Robinfan652: Yes, someone who understands. Yeah I guess Robin was being a 'friend.'
