The masked man looked at the crowd of men. He was sure that he had heard something... but, then again, what were you to expect from a room full of men?

Star looked out from the crowd. Was the masked man still there?

Star heard the man leave, closing the door behind him. She exhaled and started to move.

Star looked behind her and saw an untied Robin. She motioned for him to follow her out the window.

Starfire was caught from behind. Thinking that it had been the blonde boy, she turned to face her catcher.

Back at the tower, Raven finished building a small hut that was livable.

"I'm done!" she called, and the boys came running.

Beast Boy held what he had salvaged of the food. There had luckily been a cupboard lodged in the ground with a charred piece of metal protecting it. It was full of bread and water.

Cyborg called from the meadow a few yards away. He came running with firewood.

Raven smiled. The boys were so helpful, and after they relieved their hunger, they could all go searching for the two people that were missing.

At the warehouse, havoc was beginning. Slowly, steadily, the masked man made his way down the hallway. With a screaming Starfire under his arm, he threw her into the room where he kept his women captive. She threw her in. He should have realized that, sooner or later, she would be with the others.

Star landed into the room. She looked up. The people in here weren't tied, but they looked starved.

A blonde girl reached her hand down. She helped Starfire up. She was pretty, and she had a fair smile.

"I'm Terra. I was just brought here yesterday. I take it that you're new, too? Well, you'll learn quickly how Slade works." She said.

Starfire arched her eyebrows. "Slade?" She asked, "Who is Slade?"

The blonde girl's smile faded. "He is... He is that masked man. How do you not know him!"

Star shrugged. She explained that she hadn't had time to learn names, as she had been scared to death.

Star looked around. There were not many other girls... there was Terra, and a prettier girl. The other girl came over with a grin. She had dark skin the color of mahogany wood.

"I'm Bumble. Bumble Bee. I go by Bumble for short, though." She said. Star looked up and smiled. She introduced herself.

The three girls smiled at each other. Finally, Terra broke the silence. "Oh, hell. Let's get out like we were doing before Starfire came!"

Starfire widened her eyes. Break out?

"We should do it with some boys, though. That way, we have protection. And company."

The girls walked back and forth. Star knew that they were definitely going to rescue the boys.

Or, rather, she hoped.
