Lonely Paths Come Together Two: Destiny
Chapter Nineteen
You can't escape my love,
"You belong to me my Bird, the more you run my child, the closer you come to me." Slade's deep voice told her. "You belong to me forever." He told her as he slaps her face, sending her flying backward.
"What you are and what you will become, is all because of me. You owe me."
"I don't owe you anything." The young girl told him, but only got a cruel chuckle in return, and a kick to the stomach.
"You shouldn't talk back, my Bird. I'm going to break you, just like I'm doing to your boyfriend."
"No."
"Yes, you should hear him. He loves to be fucked, he moans like a bitch in heat."
"You're lying."
Slade chuckles down at her.
Here's how it goes,
You and me,
Up and down but maybe this time,
We'll get it right,
"He loves the pain that I inflict upon him, it gives him a thrill. Yes he is stubborn and does often say that he loves you, but I know he's cracking. He won't last much longer, soon he as well will fully belong to me, just like you too will be as well."
"I won't! I won't surrender to you!"
"Poor Robin, all alone. And I thought you loved him. How pitiful." Slade's laugh resounded in her mind, echoing and chilling her.
"NO!" Raven yelled and sat up immediately.
Sweat lined her forehead, and her black tank top was wet. Her eyes were wide and she was breathing heavily.
"He moans like a bitch in heat." The words wouldn't leave her mind.
"It's not true…….it's not true!" Raven said aloud, holding her head and closing her eyes tightly, "It's not true damn it!" She yelled.
"Is everything okay?" A voice asked her, as a door was swiftly opened.
Raven's head shot up and she looked at the person that had talked to her, in the dimly lit room.
"Who are you?"
Worth a fight,
Cause love is something you can't shake,
When it breaks,
All it takes is some trying,
"My name is Terra, I heard you yell, you don't look well. Let me check that wound." Terra said coming over to her and was about to touch her…
"He loves to be fucked, he moans like a bitch in heat." The voice in her mind told her again.
"NO!" Raven yelled.
Terra backed away two steps, "Are you okay?"
"Don't touch me…I'm fine."
"Are you sure? Because…"
"I'm fine." Raven again stated firmly.
Terra sighed, "If you insist, are you hungry, or thirsty? I could bring you something."
"Where am I?"
If you feel like leaving,
I'm not gonna wait for you to stay,
Soon you can find it,
You can run,
You can hide,
But you can't escape my love,
"An abandoned warehouse."
"There were others."
"Oh yeah, I think they called themselves, Cyborg, Beast Boy, and Starfire. We sort of came to the same city, and well you needed help. This place is just temporary. So what were all those robot thingies that were everywhere?"
"Slade." Raven muttered.
"Excuse me?"
"You should leave, all of you. This city is not safe."
"That's why I came."
"Well you should leave, go back to where you came from, go home."
"Well I would but I don't have a home. And neither does anyone else her I believe. So this is our home for now."
"You don't understand, this city is dangerous…you have to leave!"
"And what gives you the right to stay?"
You should know,
It's hard to just forget the past,
So fast,
It was good,
It was bad,
But it was real and that's all you get,
In the end our love matters,
"It's my duty." Raven told her, her eyes falling to the floor.
"We're heroes, so it is also our duty to protect the innocent. I wasn't given these powers for nothing you know." Terra stated, raising her hands and smiling.
"It's your choice then. Where are my cloths?"
"I fixed them for you…here." Terra handed her clothing to her.
"…Thank you." Terra left and Raven got dressed.
After that she walked along the hallway, until she came to what seemed like a make shift command center.
"Hey dude!" A skinny green thing with pointy ears came at her. "Had a great beauty nap?" He asked, slinging his arm around her shoulder and smiling wide.
"…" Raven did not reply just shrugged her shoulders away from him.
If you feel like leaving,
I'm not gonna make you stay,
You can run,
You can hide,
But you can't escape my love,
"A woman with few words, that fine…that's fine…I'm cool with that. Smooth…"
"Hey greeny leave her alone and come over here." A large metal man said, lifting a box with ease.
"My name is Beast Boy!"
"Just come here."
"That ones Cyborg, you've already met Beast Boy and…….."
"Oh joy, the friend has awakened!" A girl in a purple mini skirt and tight tank top came flying down at her swooping her in a bear hug. "It is good to see you awakened friend." She said smiling widely. "What is your favorite color? Where do you come from? What is your name? Do you wish to be my friend?" The attack of questions surprised Raven.
"…Black…I live here…Raven…I don't know." She answered honestly.
"Wonderful friend, I am so pleased to meet you."
"And this is Starfire." Terra stated finishing her sentence.
Here's how it goes,
All it takes is some trying,
Baby you can run,
If you feel like leaving,
But I won't make you stay,
You can run,
You can hide,
But you can't escape my love,
"I see."
"Hey little lady…" The one called Cyborg called to her.
"…"
"These robots are high tech. Who made them?"
"It's a long story." Raven muttered, "I don't feel like explaining it right now."
"Well we need to know what we're going up against."
"I can handle this myself."
"You looked like you were doing a great job out there."
"That's enough Cyborg…we'll deal with it later."
Cyborg sighed, "Alright …so what's the next thing that we are going to do?"
If you feel like leaving,
I'm not gonna make you stay,
You can't escape my love,
You can run,
Baby you can hide,
But you can't escape my love,
"I'm leaving, I have something to handle." Raven said, making her way to the exit.
"You can't leave now, you're still healing. Your hurt, just relax."
"Not now. Thank you for everything, but you all can leave now." Raven stated as she left.
"I'm going to break you, just like I' m doing to your boyfriend."
"It's not true."
You can run,
You can hide,
But you can't escape my love.
