A/N: yah, you are probably going to kill me for the late update but hey, i cant help it!
Chapter 3: You cant judge a book by it's cover
Slade's one eye widened in surprise as he listened to his ''cousin's'' tale through one of the electric bugs he had set up in the tower's system.
Looks like our freind has bitten off more than she can chew he thought while smiling behind his mask.
OhNoOhNoOhNoOhNoOhNoOhNoOhNo
'Dude that is totally not fair!'
'All is fair in love and video games you little grass stain'
'But I wasent even looking!'
'Then you should have kept your eyes on the screen'
Sara laughed as she saw steam coming from Beast boy's head and he lunged forward in attempt to hit the 'RESET' button but the android caught him before he could do so.
'Oh no you dont!' Cyborg exclaimed and pretty soon, they were both a mass of flying fists and loud voices on the floor...which only made Sara laugh harder.
'Aw cmon knock it off you two' she said as she tried to pull the two teens apart, but only to be swept away with them on the floor as they continued thier argument.
'May I join in the piling-on as well?' came a sweet voice and all three of them stopped and stared at the tamaranian princess who was hovering a few inches off the floor with a smile on her face.
Sara quickly pried herself away from the two teens and smiled nervously at Starfire 'Actually, we were just finished' she said as Cyborg and Beast boy quickly straightened up as well with slight pink tinges on thier faces.
'Oh' Starfire's face fell for a mere 5 seconds then quickly resumed it's cheerful demanor 'Would you like to travel to the mall of shopping with me? I beleive i have seen a garment which you would like very much'
'Erm...' Sara looked at her feet and then at Starfire, who was staring at her with a puppy dog look.
'Ok' she finally answered with defeat... darn those eyes...
OhNoOhNoOhNoOhNoOhNoOhNoOhNo
'Azrath Metrion Zinthos' Raven chanted and felt peace flow through her entire form.
True, she-with the help of the titans- had defeated Trigon and now there was no need for her to control her emotions but somehow, she felt the urge to meditate because it gave her peace of mind and as for showing emotions...well, who would call her Raven if she did that? hiding her emotions had become a part of her now and she was not about to change
that.
An unusual wave of emotion hit her and she fell on the ground with an annoyed look on her face.
Figures, She could not meditate with that girl around.
She brushed the dust off of her and looked around her dark room to look for something else to do...looks like there was a first time for everythng.
After ten minutes of pointless thinking, she sighed and levitated out of the room. She felt really agitated right now and all she needed was an excuse to rip something apart.
'Hey Raven' came a voice from behind her.
A smile tugged on her lips, she didnt need to turn around to see who that voice belonged to 'Hello Robin' she greeted as Robin stepped next to her.
'What have you been up to?'
'I should ask you the same question'
'You know me well enough by now Raven'
'So do you Robin'
Both of them started walking towards the main room while talking about thier usual routine, making Raven feel relaxed for the first time since the girl arrived until he asked her one question which wiped away the calm atmosphere.
'So Raven, Why are you being so hard on Sara?'
'I think you are forgetting the incident with Terra Robin' she answered coldly.
'She did save everyone in the end Raven' he said pointedly.
'Yeah But she betrayed us in the first place'
'And she saved us in the second place' he said with calculated coolness in his voice.
Raven whirled around to face him, fire burning in her amethyst eyes while she stared at his emotionless face.
'Why are you taking her side! you of all people should know that she is dangerous! she is Slade's cousin for crying out loud! how do you know she is not working with him? she could be planning our demise and youre not even doing anything about it! you are supposed to be the leader!'
The fire burning in her eyes extinguished itself quickly when she realized that she had bitten off more than she could chew.
Robin eyed her with a cool expression 'You are right Raven'
Raven blinked and stared at him in disbeleif...ok that was uncalled for...
'Im not taking her side and I really fully dont trust her but we have to because she is our only hope against Slade' he answered.
'All right, what are you planning?' she said with relief that he was not angry at her.
He gave a small smile 'I'll tell you when I can confirm my theory'.
Raven stared at him in half shock and half disbeleif...this was one side of her leader she had never, ever seen before...he never kept himself this composed
She smiled. Even though she had a mental link with him, she hardly knew Robin.
He returned her smile just as the double doors swished open 'c'mon, lets go get some pizza before Cyborg finishes it or worse...Beastboy decides to mix it with Tofu'
OhNoOhNoOhNoOhNoOhNoOhNoOhNoOhNo
The old man carefully seated himself in front of the television and flipped through the channels and after finding nothing interesting on it, he switched to a HBO which was showing the famous horror movie 'The Grudge'
Youth is truly wasted on the young the old man thought with a smile as he saw the actor flop lifelessly to the ground after receiving a killing blow from the supposingly 'Grudge'
He did not know why he liked such gruesome movies, call it an old habit of his but he still had a thing for bio technology, even though he was retired and all.
The music in the movie increased, building up the suspense and the man actually shivered, feeling as if the thing would come alive and finish him right there.
Unfortunately, fate had something much worse in store for him...
As soon as the music stopped, he found his chair turning towards the opposite direction with speed and he was forced to face someone he never wanted to see...
'Wilson' he said in shock.
'Yes its me, Wilson, come to pay you a visit' he said, his voice as smooth as silk as two robots tied the poor old man there.
'Please dont do anything to me' he whimpered as he felt Slade's cold glare on his wrinkled face.
'I wont do anything to you yet' he answered and came closer to him so that thier faces were only inches apart 'If you tell me the information I need'
'I'll tell you anything you need to know' the man immediatly surrenderred.
'I see you have'nt lost your old habit of cowardice Dr. Freeman' Slade taunted, making the old man shiver.
'What do you want to know?' he asked fearfully.
'Paitience, old man, paitience' he answered and eyed him with keen interest 'you do remember project X dont you?'
'Ofcourse I do' he answered.
'Good, Because I will need it to deal with a freind of mine' he said with a smirk soon titans, you will be killed by your own foolishness.
