YAY! My TAKS tests have actually given me a LOT more time to write than normal…I'm talking about I've written like 8 chapters after I'm done with the test. I'm so glad that all I have left is the History one!
When Raven finally came to, she felt something cold on her wrists, ankles and forehead. It took her a second to realize that these were chains.
"Damn Titans!" Raven said out loud. She had assumed that it was the Titans who held her captive at the moment.
"Not quite the Titans." A familiar voice said.
Raven looked up and saw a tall young man with a blue and black outfit and black hair and eyes. "Aqualad?" Raven said confused.
"Along with Aqualad, is me." A eerie voice seethed. Raven looked over to the shadows of the small room she was in and saw Slade.
Raven struggled to break out of the chains, but without any luck. "Don't waste your energy." Slade sneered. He tapped the chains and said "Custom made."
This only made Raven try harder to break loose.
"He is right Raven. There is no way you can break out of those chains. Your powers won't work while they are attached to you." Aqualad stated.
Raven looked Aqualad into the eyes and said, "Why are you working for Slade? He is almost the worst villain I have ever been against."
"Because…Slade started. "He is my apprentice. Oh, and thank you for the compliment."
"Bastard!" Raven screamed. "Why did you take me like this?"
Slade stepped up by her and placed his hand under her chin. She quickly pulled away. Slade laughed. "I did this because the Titans fail to see you for who you really are. They view you as a monster. They are afraid of you. They also send serious false accusations against you. The accusations go down to their fear of who you could become. Aqualad and I took the liberty of saving you. You deserve so much better than what the Titans could possibly hope to offer you. We can give you a better life. We can give you everything your heart wants." Slade walked away from Raven. He lifted up a controller and pressed a button. As soon as the button was pressed, the chains opened and Raven fell to the ground.
Raven was terrified. How could Slade possibly know those things about her relations with the Titans. She didn't bother to break her fall…she just landed and stayed still.
"Think about our offer dear." Slade said, and then left.
"Raven!" Aqualad said. He ran up to her and helped her to her feet. "Please stay with us. Slade spoke the truth. He really can help." Aqualad pleaded.
Raven had no idea what to say or do. She looked up at him. She silently thought to herself, "I don't know what to do!"
I really want to know what you guys think about me using Aqualad. Was it a good choice or a bad one? If it was bad, I'm willing to change that part because I'm not sure I'm completely happy with it. Sorry if this is shorter than the other chapters! I promise to update soon since I have already written ahead. Please review! They keep me motivated!
