Ch4 Trapped
"She's still asleep" I peered into one of the many monitors on the wall in front of me, I saw the girl, chained, gagged, and sound asleep on a wall. "Robin is late, you would think he would be here by now unless…" I thought back to that boy, the one in the black suit and skull mask, "Maybe Robin thought he toke her…" it made since, the way he fought for the girl when I toke her, and when he said that she was his… I leaned back in my chain and stared at the ceiling, My original plan was to use any one of his teammates and make Robin become my apprentice again, I had the necessary tools to take down each of his fellow teammates and use any of them, but recently I noticed something…different about how Robin acted around her, that smile he had when ever he saw her, and how furious he got when I hurt her, and not to mention that when he looked at her the first time when he was my apprentice and saw her suffering, only then did he infect himself with the probes. I looked again at my screens and saw a group of five shadowed figures running through one of the hallways, "Five? I toke the girl…" I looked at the screen again and replayed it quickly. I hit a button on the control console and put my plan into motion. "An unforeseen inconvenience, but my plan will work none the less…" I sat and looked at the monitors again and saw the faintest glimmer, of a white skull mask.
(About an hour earlier Right after X leaped of the building)
Red X's POV
"WHY SHOULD WE!" Robin roared, practically busting my ear drum,
"Listen kid, you need me, one because I have multiple gadgets that can help you, two your down one team member, and three because you need someone who can, be stealthy and turn off systems that might put you and her in danger." I huffed,
"Why, do you care? She despises you! She doesn't care about you! And you know nothing about HER! Your just a selfish criminal you cares for nobody but YOURSELF!" His words stung, not only my ego, but my heart, he knew nothing about me…
"Listen kid, I want to help, I even tried to stop Slade, or whatever his name is when he toke her I can help and will help, even if you tell me no I will follow you." we glared at each other hatefully,
"Guys we're losing time if we're gonna do something it has to be now." Cyborg said looking at a clock on his arm,
"If you betray us, I swear I will hunt you down and throw you in the darkest cell there is…and make sure you stay there for the rest of your forsaken life." Robin hissed his voice full of raw hate,
"Sounds fair." I said bluntly and clicked a button on my belt, a revving of an engine could be heard as a black motorcycle sped in front of me and screeched to a halt, "I had it fixed since our last meeting." I hopped on and started it up again, "Come on if we're going to save her we have to move fast." I quickly revved the bike signaling I was ready to go,
"TITANS MOVE!" Robin ordered and we were off.
(Five minutes later, 9:42 p.m.)
Regular POV
"How are we going to find them?" Beastboy asked,
"I can scan that shot Robin found and find his fingerprints, get his DNA and it will show me where he's hiding." Cyborg said as he brought up his arm andbrought out the shot from the compartmenton his left arm. Hescaned it and a few moments later a small "Bing" noise was heard and Cyborg grinned,
"Got him, he's in some abandoned warehouse over at the volcano." "Why is it always volcanoes with this guy?" Beastboy whined, and before Robin could speak,
"Does it matter?" can a mechanical voice from the T-car's speakers, "It's starting to rain, that'll give us some extra cover let's hurry." Red X stated as he increased his speed and the sky started to weep it's tears as small raindrops started to fall. By the time Red X and the Titans reached their destination it was pouring,
"Let's go." Robin said as he got off his motorcycle and toke off his helmet and the gel started dripping from his hair as the cold, wet rain hit his hair.
"Right." Red X said as he whipped out his X-shaped wrist blades and cut a hole in the barbed wire fence in front of them. Once they were past the fence they looked at the building ahead. It was a tall building with at least fifteen stories,
"An abandoned warehouse how original." Raven said sarcastically as she hovered to one of the walls and made a dark portal and let everyone through. When Red X was up he turned to her,
"I heard you can read thoughts, what about you? Do you trust me?" he asked, she looked at him with her violet eyes,
"Your thoughts, are scrambled to me, you mean well, but at the same time your thoughts of thievery still swarm your mind, so we'll have to see if you will follow through with your word." she stated, Red X closed his eyes and nodded as he went through the wall. The Titans quickly ran through the ghostly hallways, they were dark so the Titans didn't have to worry about stealth at the moment,
"Can you find her?" Robin asked turning his head to Cyborg,
"Scanners can't pick up anything, and her communicator is offline." Cyborg said looking at his arm then back in front of him. Red X however, wasn't listening, he was thinking of Robin's words,
"Why do you care! She despises you! She doesn't care about you!" "Your just a selfish criminal who cares only about nobody but yourself!" I do care for someone else, I do. Memories came rushing back to me. I remember the laughs we shared, the moments, times, the kiss, until that day… I shook my head getting rid of the memories and keep running,
"Let's split up we can cover more ground that way." Robin whispered and the others nodded, "Raven and Beastboy go left, Cyborg right, I'll go with Red X ready…split!" he commanded and everyone toke off in different directions except for Red X and Robin who keep running forward,
"Hmm, thought you would put me with Cyborg or somebody just to get rid of me."
"I want to keep my eye on you." Robin growled as they reached a door at the end of the hallway. Red X opened it and there, in the middle of the room was Starfire. "Starfire!" Robin exclaimed as he ran to her, Red X, overjoyed as he was, was suspicious. He clicked a small button on the side of his mask, and his eyes turned red as an infa-red heat vision setting turned on. His eyes grew wide as he saw that Starfire had no heat signature,
"Robin, that's not Starfire…" Red X whispered. Robin stopped just in front of the tied up Starfire,
"Of course it is! Can't you see!" Red X focused a little more an saw a small heat signature next to Robin. Red X gasped and cursed in a foreign language, that Robin couldn't make out because of the mechanical filtering. He ran quickly next to Robin, and shoved him out of the way and then quickly leaped back as the small explosive set off. Robin looked over at Red X
"You…" he didn't finish as he stood up and growled, "Slade…he tricked me!" he yelled as he slammed his fist into the wall cracking it. Suddenly the door behindus opened and there stood a small group of robots. I threw a X shaped bomb at the group of robots, it destroyed a few but they keep charging and were soon upon us, I brought out my X wrist blades and cut a few down as Robin brought out his staff and destroyed at least five in three seconds flat. But, in his rage he didn't see the robot raising its arm to fire a blast at him. I threw a razor-sharp X at him slicing its arm off I ran and swiped my blade down the middle slicing it in half. "You saved me…" he said shocked finishing off the last of the small group of robots, "Why?" I looked at him,
"I need you to save her." I stated as I turned n my heat vision again and looked around the room. I saw a few hallways down a faint heat signature, and knew it was Starfire, I turned a little and saw another one surrounded by other faint signatures and guessed that was Slade, "Robin Starfire is over there, a few rows up forth room to your right." Red X pointed to the door leading to he hallways. He nodded as he rushed over to the door,
"What about you?" he asked looking back,
"I'm going to deal with Slade." he stated as he clicked a button on his belt and disappeared.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Well here's chapter four, hope you liked it! And the person Red X was thinking about when he was thinking about Robin's words was not Starfire, it was someone else that I won't tell you about till a later chapter. Oh and here's an excerpt peace out.
I was breathing deeply; Slade's robots were now scrape metal under my feet, "Good job that was better than expected." Slade said coming out of the shadows, "You haven't fought like that since…she died." he chuckled, I looked up at him and snarled, "How do you know about her!" I demanded, "That's easy, you so called bad boy." a familiar voice said behind Slade. Suddenly an old man walked out, wearing a white jumpsuit with a control box in the middle, and red goggles and white hat. "Chang!" I growled at the man in front of me, "Yes it's me, and I'll tell you why bad-bay Slade knows about…her." suddenly I felt a searing pain in my back and cried out in pain and fell on all fours, I felt something jam my back signaling for me not to move, I looked over to see Chang's robots. Chang was now in front of me and looked down with the sickest smile on his face, "I killed her."
