Yes that sounded familiar…
Words that came from the boy wonder…
…my former apprentice.
flashback
"This deal can't last forever" he said…
"It can. And it will" was my reply
Behind Robin, a row of monitors comes to life, all showing blank white screens. He turns to face them; one shows static, then an image of the decoy detonator.
"The Titans still have no idea that my chronoton detonator was more than a decoy. Now that my probes are inside their bodies, they could remain undetected for years…decades"
he gritted his teeth…
"Unless, of course, you disobey me"…I proceeded…"and I decide to destroy your former friends with a push of the button" I sneered.
…
"Sooner or later, you'll let your guard down. I will get that controller, and the instant they're out of danger, you will pay"
end of flashback
..and I did…
Similar words came from terra…
She, who become my apprentice by her own will…
flashback
"You can't treat me like this" where her words..
"Can't I?" my reply
"Who else would have you, my dear?" I asked "You've done horrible things. Unforgivable things, Where else could you possibly go?"
"Anywhere but here! I'm sick of fighting, and I'm sick of you!" was her answer.
end of flashback
A good sidekick…
I should have treated her better…she would have stayed by my side.
……
So this is how it felt….
…
"Does it hurt?" Asked a cold voice beneath me.
Raven had just appeared there.
"That little torture session of yours meant nothing to me" I lied… and try to stand up
"I am talking about memories" she said "have you remembered anything interesting?"
images of robin and terra appeared all around us, as nitid as real.
"I see" she exclaimed "And guess what Slade…This is exactly how it feels"
No…this cant be true…there must be some way to…
"Escape?" she laugh at me…
Telepathy …
"Mmm…let me see, unlike Robin you haven't got any friend to rescue you…and unlike terra you can't even try a wannabe-heroic suicide…because…if you do…I'll just revive you." She stated… smiling widely
"!DAMNED DEMMON!" I exclaimed in a furious attack…
Raven block the axe with one finger…
Looked at me by the side of the blade… and pointed at my head with her free hand
Pain again…even worse…and then it stopped.
"I'll prefer you to call me mistress"
memories again…
"ok Slade, do you really want me to do that again?"
I stay silent
"I guess you don't" she said, and with this words she sit on her throne.
"But I can forgive your rudeness" she added "You just have to be a good servant"
"You where a Teen Titan…You…" I have to provoke some reaction…Raven the titan must be there somewhere…
"Yes…yes…nice story Slade" She answered…
"Time ago, before the titans, my mother too used to tell me some, before sleeping…but then was where the really good stories were told…my dad used to appear on my dreams, talked me about the power inside me and the things I could do…and in the mornings I waked up thinking of the time I would have to wait…and my mother used to think I was sad about my destiny" Her laughter echoed trough the place…
"A good woman... my mum"
This information was unexpected, my eye was wide open.
"It was uncomfortable at the beginning...but when you are on control you like it"
"…haha…" she calmed down and said "well…I think you would like me to forgive your rudeness, to prove yourself useful"
I didn't answer…
"you could help my boys in battle… they in a need of extra help" she added as a green lightening crossed the sky.
"This is Mors.." She said pointing at one of the guards, tall razor, sharp claws and the mark of scath shining on his chest "…a really strong warrior…" Mors's yellow eyes shined with proud at that appreciation "he'll teach you how to please me… in battle"
Now Mors was kneeling beside me "your word is law my mistress" he said…his voice echoing strangely.
"I know it is…Slade I want you to bring me some heads"
"like this one…" she explained herself throwing cyborg's skull unceremoniously to the floor in front of her "to prove you are doing a good job…and I want Mors to be your witness" Raven and Mors exchange looks "I think fifty would do" she added.
I didn't have time to complain…
Mors took me by my wrist and within seconds we were in outer space.
