Sorry it's taken me so long, it's just I worried if I got back to work on this project that my computer would die again, I really hope it doesn't, but anyways I'm going to try and make this story long, but still enjoyable. Be warned though, this chapter will have a lot of fighting, I'm guessing all action fan's just screamed in excitement, ha, well enjoy.

Chapter 4Slade sighed as he walked towards his own room, he was thinking of how to get Raven to enjoy herself, instead of pushing him away. /Perhaps I should just keep on this path, I can tell she likes it for the most part, but part of her doesn't, this is a nuisance/ Slade thought to himself. But he was ambushed by a shadow person, that was far more skilled than he was in combat, Slade was captured easily by this skilled shadow.
When Slade awoke, he was in what looked like a hospital room only darker. "You're finally awake." A shadow said. "Where am I?" Slade asked, trying not to sound hostile. "You're in the medical facility of the real Slade's evil center." The shadow replied. (Now there are two Slade's making writing this hard, so the villain Slade will be called Deathstroke like in the comics, that is how this will be dealt with A/N) "So what's stopping me from slaughtering you right now?" Slade asked.
"The fact that I could easily kill you, and that there are nearly thirty guards in this room alone." The shadow said with a laugh. "Hmm." Slade said as he looked around carefully, taking notes of where the shadow guards were. (They're acting like ordinary shadows, but pay enough attention and you can figure out which ones are ordinary and which ones are living A/N) Slade began planning his escape, when Deathstroke came in.
"So you're the person who stole my identity, I doubt you can live up to it though." Deathstroke said. "I'm better than you, I'm sure of that." Slade said as he stood up. (He was in a hospital bed A/N) "I'd like to judge that myself." Deathstroke said with a laugh. "Fine then." Slade said as he jumped up throwing a fast kick at Deathstroke's face, but was caught in midair and thrown into the wall.
"That was pitiful, how dare you insult me like that." Deathstroke spoke with anger. /Oh crap, this guy is better than I thought, I'll have to actually work to beat him. / Slade thought to himself as he stood up, throwing a punch with his right hand, which was easily dodged by Deathstroke, who then dealt a painfully strong kick to Slade's face. "Damn it, you're pretty good." Slade spoke with pain; he was having trouble standing after that kick.
"I wish I could say the same about you, but that would be a pure lie." Deathstroke said mockingly. Slade threw a fast barrage of punches that were all blocked by Deathstroke, who laughed at the feeble attack and threw a faster and stronger version of it at Slade. Slade was pushed into the wall as the punches smashed into his body, he wouldn't be able to take much more.
"Come now Slade, you're better than this, or at least you should be, I'm even going easy on you, be glad I am." Deathstroke yelled as he kept smashing his fists into Slade. /There's got to be a way to win, something I'm just not seeing, wait a minute I've got it. / Slade thought to himself with a smile, as he awaited the next. Deathstroke took a half second break every thirty punches, and at that break Slade threw a kick with every ounce of power he could muster, into Deathstroke's face.
Deathstroke's mask cracked as he was thrown back, Slade smiled behind his mask at how well that worked. "That was a good attack, but I'm guessing you used quite a lot of power in it, meaning you'll need to wait until you can make another attack that strong." Deathstroke said calmly as he stood up. /Oh crap, I was expecting a few more seconds before he got up, better make a run for it and hope for the best. / Slade thought to himself as he dashed out the room trying to find an exit.
"You won't escape me." Deathstroke called as he ran after Slade. /Got to get away from him, if I can get a minute of rest than he'll have lost, I'm sure of it. / Slade thought to himself as five shadows surrounded him. "We won't let you escape." The shadows said in unison as they threw slow yet powerful punches. Slade dodged them as he pulled two of the shadows closer to each other, making them hit the other shadow, Slade smiled as he used the shadows against themselves.
Slade smiled as he knocked the last one out with a hard kick to the stomach, but Deathstroke caught up at that moment. "Very good Slade, I wonder if you could take down a hundred of them at once, like I did to take control of them." Deathstroke said laughing. "You shouldn't be laughing right now, I've got a special ability that will destroy you." Slade spoke with courage.
"What move could possibly beat me?" Deathstroke asked. "This one." Slade said throwing an extremely fast punch at Deathstroke's face, which caught him off guard. Deathstroke managed to stay standing, but was wavering from the pain. Slade then threw a powerful kick to Deathstroke's temple, smashing him to the ground.
Slade then ran off, needing to escape, having to get back to the titans. "Hmm quite good, I might have to turn this mechanical body up higher than twenty-five percent next time." Deathstroke said laughing. Slade found an odd lab, as he stepped on a pad that teleported him to his room in titans tower. "Ouch." Slade said before he fell asleep.
Slade woke up at five a.m. surrounded by the shadow people. "We must destroy you." They said as they went to attack. Slade rolled off of his mattress, landing on the ground as he brought his legs up into the faces of two shadows, as he jumped up landing on top of them. Slade quickly threw a roundhouse kick before any of the other shadows could move, as they all fell down. "Just like it should be." Slade said before the shadows disappeared.
Slade yawned as he left his room, as he walked to the kitchen hoping to find food. Slade smiled as he entered the kitchen, he saw a note that read 'Slade there is some leftover gabrolk pudding in the fridge, please help yourself –Starfire', Slade smiled as he took off his mask and began eating the odd pudding. Robin came out only a few minutes after Slade had finished his meal. "Where were you when the alarm sounded?" Robin asked angrily. "What are you talking about?" Slade asked.
"We had to go fight the hive five, they nearly beat us too." Robin said. "I was captured by Deathstroke, nearly killed by shadows and was trying to escape." Slade said calmly. "Yeah right, you better be there next time." Robin said as he went back to his own room. /I hope I'm alive to see the next time. / Slade thought to himself as he sighed.
Slade got up and went to leave the tower, going to waste a few hours in town, when some old guy in a business suit stopped him. "Who are you?" Slade asked. "I am Mastermind the assassin, I'm here to kill you." The man said as he dealt an unbelievably fast punch into Slade's stomach, forcing Slade back nearly a hundred feet. Before Slade could even realize it, Mastermind had got right up to him and dealt a kick to his face, which threw him into the wall.
"You need to learn to move." Mastermind said with a hardy laugh. "Get ready to see me move." Slade said as he got up and ran at Mastermind, Mastermind laughed and dealt a lightning fast kick to Slade's stomach throwing him back into the wall. "You moved, but too slow." Mastermind laughed as he threw punches at Slade's stomach, smashing him further and further into the wall.
Mastermind held Slade up by his throat, throwing punches at Slade's face. /I'm going to die by an old man's hand, this is not the way I thought I would go, but who cares. / Slade thought to himself as he tried to gather enough energy to fight back. Mastermind threw Slade across the room in anger. "I was promised a good fight, I hate people who don't challenge me, come on you used you're energies once before do it again now!" Mastermind yelled angrily.
"Energies, really I mean what the fuck are you talking about?" Slade asked as he stood up. "You're body's energy, you conjured up a strong attack with it against Deathstroke, how dare you insult me by not using it against me!" Mastermind screamed. /I did, wait that one attack I used was stronger than normally; maybe if I can do that again, I think I've got it. / Slade thought to himself as he unlocked the secret of powerful attacks.
"Thanks, I didn't quite understand why that attack was stronger than my others, now I do, and now you've lost." Slade said as he began to muster all his strength. "You may know, but you have no idea how to control it, it took me fifteen years to fully control my energy, it shall take you far longer than a mere minute!" Mastermind thunderously roared, as he ran towards Slade. Slade waited until Mastermind was but a few feet away, then threw an incredibly powerful punch with his right hand, Mastermind didn't catch it in time and was hit in the face.
Mastermind stood steady, but Slade delivered a punch with his left before Mastermind could recuperate from the first blow. Slade kept throwing powerful hits at Mastermind, making sure that they kept coming so that Mastermind couldn't fight back. Slade smiled as he was slowly gathering energy in his right leg, in a couple minutes he would strike Mastermind down. Then Mastermind threw a single punch that threw Slade through a wall.
Mastermind smiled just before being thrown back by black energy. Slade managed to stand up, his body wavering under the pressure of the attack, as Raven flew out to help him. "I guess you do like me?" Slade said with a hidden smile. Raven said nothing as she coated him in black energy that slowly rejuvenated him. "No matter what you do I will win." Mastermind said angrily as he ran at the two teenagers.
"Raven you have to run, this guy's tough as hell." Slade said as he prepared himself for the attack. Raven stayed where she was in between Slade and Mastermind, until she was pushed out of the way by Slade who said sorry before running into battle. Slade just prepared his finishing move, a powerful roundhouse kick, which he used after dodging Mastermind's punch, which also allowed him to knock him out. Slade passed out after winning, Raven took Mastermind to jail before taking Slade to his room, she thought of staying with him but knew it wouldn't be good to be there when he awoke.
That's all for chapter 4 I hope you liked it, please leave a review before you exit.
