At night, everyone was asleep with their puppets next to them. Raven, however, was not asleep. Well, yes she was, but not as heavly as usual. She sensed something she didn't like. Something-or someone- was in the tower, someone she didn't know. She scanned the tower.
Nothing.
Raven clenched her teeth.'Whoever this is, he or she is really good at deflecting my magic...' Raven scanned the hallways again, this time in search of someone deflecting her magic. 'Bingo. There you are,' Raven thought triumphantly as she sensed someone out in the hallways. It wasn't Slade, thankfully.
Robin also sensed something uneasy. Just as he woke up and started to think about it, he heard someone at his door. He jumped up. The thing there darted away. Robin ran out into the halls. He walked around, looking this way and that. "Hello? Anyone there?" he called.
No answer.
Suddenly, he heard footsteps. Ducking away, he awaited the arrival of the intruder. Finally, the intruder came. It was clothed in a cloak and it had a hood.
Robin pounced.
The figure yelped slightly.Robin realized with a start that the person underneath him was Raven. "Raven? Is that you?" he asked, blushing slightly. The figure sighed. "Robin, you hopeless klutz..." Yep, it was Raven all right. Robin got off her and helped her up. "So, did you hear the funny noises of someonein the hallways?" he asked, changing the subject. Raven nodded. "I sensed someone, thinking that it was safer to stay in my room, so I came out to investigate. I found you instead." Robin nodded, and the two creeped along the hallways silently.
Starfire, Cyborg and BB were still fast asleep. The intruder- which was, by the way, the Puppet King- flicked his wooden fingers over the controller in his hands and switched their souls into the puppets, making their bodies his puppets.
Raven paused and placed a hand on Robin's, telling him to stop. She pointed off to the corner, where eerie flashes of neon green were flashing over and over again. What was even creepier was the evil laugh that followed. Before either could react, they were suddenly lifted off the ground and into the air.
Raven and Robin looked up. It was Cyborg. 'Wait,' Raven and Robin thought, eyes wide. 'Something's wrong...' Then they realized. Cyborg's eyes-both of them-were neon green. The other two Titans, BB and Starfire, came around the corner, walking like robots, their eyes also glowing a eerie neon green. Following behind was the Puppet King. Robin wasted no time in asking questions. "Who are you? What have you done to our friends?" he threw. The Puppet King held up three puppets. Raven and Robin gasped. "Oh no, those aren't your friends," the Puppet King gestured to the bodies of Raven's and Robin's friends. Then, lifting up the puppets in his hands, he smiled ever so slightly. "These are your friends."
Raven, seeing what the Puppet King was about to do, she began to mutter. "Azarath...Metrion...Zynthos." She muttered the last line in time as the Puppet King held up his control. Raven's power swtiched Robin's and Raven's souls around, manipulating the control. The two got up, oblivious of the sudden change in each other's appearances, and ran off. They found a sewer hole and squeezed in. They listened to the feet of their former friends' steps above them. It was then that they looked at each other.
Raven and Robin gasped.
"R-Raven?"
"R-Robin?"
Raven gasped. "You are me!" she gasped again. "And I am you!" Robin's emotions lost control and destroyed the light in the sewer.
Raven remembered that her powers were controlled by her emotions.
Uh oh...
A/N: Haha, evil cliffy...I'll launch the next chapter when I feel like it.
