"What did you think you were doing Raven?" Slade shook his head, "Look at the mess you've made."
"If you recall," Raven hissed, "It was him that kissed me. Not I that kissed him."
A nod was given to two robots and in a matter of seconds Raven found herself chained to the wall again. She hung with her arms tied uncomfortably above her head and her feet not even able to touch the floor.
"Oh but Raven, can't you tell? You did kiss him. A mistake you made. A mistake you both made…"
Raven felt the sharp sting of a hand clash against her cheek. The same hand gently turned her face to his. "Don't think you can defeat me Raven. This doesn't change anything." His eye under his mask widened in fury. "Look at me when I'm talking to you!" He roughly pushed her face higher but Raven refused to make eye contact. "I said look at me!" Raven briefly met his eye for a moment…before spitting in his face.
"I won't take orders from the likes of you," she said in a low voice.
Slade wiped his mask with his hand. "Funny," he murmured before slapping her with his saliva-watered hand.
Tears threatened to fall but she held them back. Slade would not be given the satisfaction of seeing her cry.
"Why do you do this to me Raven? I don't want to hurt you." At the word' hurt' he sent a devastating blow to her stomach forcing her to choke and gasp for breath.
Slade undid the chains holding her up and she fell limp to the ground panting.
"Why do you make it so difficult Raven?" He pulled her up by her hair and shoved her into the wall. Unable to stand up, she fell into a sitting position with her knees up as if to somehow defend against Slade's ruthless attacks.
"Raven, get up." When she didn't respond he grabbed her by the neck and forced her up. "Even, now, even in so much pain, you still won't listen to me. I wouldn't want to make any more marks on that beautiful face of yours." He roughly brushed his hand against her cheek and she cringed, as if the mere touch of his glove burned her skin.
"Don't you ever touch her again." Slade found a knife pressed to his throat.
"Robin," Slade said, unfazed to his actions or the knife threatening to kill him, "I thought you'd never come."
A sharp elbow to the lung and Robin dropped the knife, where it was greedily taken up my Slade's hands. "I should just kill you now," he muttered looking closely at the knife as if testing its worth somehow. His fingers ran delicately along the edge as only Robin could look in horror at his enemy.
Without warning Slade threw the blade at Robin. He had no precaution as the knife came toward his heart. Only one thing ran through his mind.
Raven…
He braced for impact but it never came. When he finally dared to open his eyes he found the knife inches from his body, trapped in a black energy, which could only belong to…
"Impossible!" Before Slade could react the blade was hurled at him. He tried to move but Raven's magic was too quick. All her felt was a burning in his shoulder then…
Pain. Indescribable pain in his mind as Raven sent hundreds of powerful mental attacks and horrible memories upon him.
"My son…my wife…no! Stop! Make it stop!" He helplessly fell to his knees and shuddered in fear.
"Slade, get up." She punched his face and he fell to the ground. "C'mon Slade, answer me! " she sent a hard kick to his stomach and he rolled over. Raven grabbed another knife from Robin's belt and held the point to Slade's neck.
"How do you like it when everything you love is taken away from you?"
But Slade wasn't paying attention. He was too busy trapped in his thoughts trying desperately to escape the tormenting scene placed before him.
"Time to go where you belong. Don't worry; you'll be reunited with my father. Too bad he can't help you this time."
She pulled her hand back to make the final blow but another hand caught hers and held it in a firm grip. When she turned to him her eyes were red with fury, her sharp teeth bared in a greedy lust for death.
"Raven, you don't want to kill him."
"You may not want to Robin, but I am pretty sure I do."
Robin held tighter to her bruised and cut knuckles. "Please."
"Give me one good reason why I shouldn't…"
"I don't want you to be a murderer," he whispered softly.
A look of surprise and pain overwhelmed Raven's face as her eyes turned to their normal color and her wounds slowly started to affect her body. Her hand slowly relaxed and the knife clattered to the floor. "Robin."
"What Raven."
"I'm so…tired." And with that she closed her eyes and fell unconscious in Robin's arms.
"Me too Raven, me too."
