HIYA PEOPLE!
So there are a few people who are upset at the timing at which I post chapters. I'm sorry but my day is very busy. Here is my schedule: from 4:30 AM to 9:00 PM I am busy with work and I get very little free time to write.
And when I write it might now always be this one story. I have different 'moods' I guess you could call them. When I sit down to write, if I'm able, I may feel like writing this story other times I feel like writing something else, or sometimes I just stare at the screen thinking, 'What the fuck is this junk? I wrote this?'. Most of the time though I'm too tired to do anything but read or sleep.
Trust me if I had my way I would be popping out chapters every week, but I have found out that with a lot of stories that I have read that the wait is what makes the next chapter just as juicy as the last. Besides it give you time to think and try to put things together.
That is why I sometimes post what progress I'm making on various projects. I have so many going on. Some are recent works, but some are ones that I began as a young teenager and need to be revised or gutted.
Coming Undone
I glared at my father and my siblings, "What are you doing here?" I growled as my anger grew as well as my fear. If they are here, then the chances of me and Cyborg being exposed increased dramatically, especially if they saw through my disguise.
Slade chuckled, "Why to see my son of course," he said in mock concern that sent chills down my spine, "If you wanted to go to school I could have given you that easily." The ex-soldier crossed his arms so that they were across his chest, "I just came by to see how you were doing."
I clenched my fist so hard that I broke the skin causing my hands to bleed before it healed. "Why are you really here?!" I demanded heating up my feet.
"Since you in such a rush," he said with a shrug, "I came to tell that this is your last chance to join me." Slade's eye narrowed, "If not there will be dire consequences."
I was about to tell Slade just where exactly he could shove his deal at when I felt weightlessness take me. 'What the hell?' I thought before realization dawned on me. Light was taken control of me.
Light turned my head and glared directly at my twin sister Samantha, or Zero, and spoke. "Awaken," she said with a growl before I forcibly gain back control.
'What the hell are you doing?!' I demanded.
'Something that I should have done a long time ago,' was Light answer as she retreated back into my mind. I let loose a grunt of irritation at the spirits lack of explanation. Flicking my sight back at my sister I watched in confused-curiosity as she held her head as if she was in pain. Rose noticed at leaned towards her and whispering something.
"I don't think you have any leverage over me," I said looking back at Slade, "You really have lost your mind if you think you can threaten me to join you." I watched as Slade uncrossed his arms and jumped down into the arena. He tossed something at me which I caught and gave the item a look.
It was a black PDA of some kind. I looked up to see if Slade had gone anywhere, which he hadn't, before I looked at the device. My eyes widen at what I saw, "You bastard!" I growled glaring at me father, who I knew had a smug smile under his mask. "You can't-"
"I can, and I will, without hesitation," Slade said stepping towards me, "But if you join me I won't raise a finger." Deathstroke stop until he was right in front of me before he leaned in and whispered, "When you complete your little mission here for your friends I will come and take you if you don't join well….." he trailed off letting the threat hang in the air before straightening back up. "Ravager, Rose, Zero," he called out, "it's time to go."
"I'll see you soon my son," Slade said before his mask drop revealing a screen with a blood red number counting down from:
…3…
…2…
I quickly pulled out a throwing knife infused it with lightening, and threw it inside the drone to disable bomb just as the number reached 1. The robot shuddered before collapsing to the ground.
I felt Fury roared as my anger grew. I let out a growl and vented my frustration out on the robotic replica of my father by kicking it as hard as I could. The drone soared through the air and crashed into the wall causing it to explode. I dropped the PDA and crushed it with a fire enhance foot turning into a melted slag.
"Well that was interesting," Brother Blood said.
I didn't bother to stay around instead I left the room not even bother to recognize anyone.
One of the most feared things has happen what's worse is that now every villain will know about my parentage, but I can hopefully avoid this if I can keep my cover.
But…now the rest of the Titans know and I'm sure they'll hate me. Robin I know for sure since he has beef with Slade, and the others I really can't say for sure. They'll never trust me; I'll probably be thrown out off the team.
Rachel…..
DAMN YOU SLADE!
I punched the wall in frustration leaving behind a dent.
For the next few hours I didn't stop walking with no destination in mind, all the while trying my best to avoid anyone and everyone.
I didn't how or when I reached my room, but my anger wasn't quite spent, in fact it was starting to boil over. Stepping into the room I slammed the door shut and locked it.
"Well that was interesting," I snapped my eyes open see a body hiding in the shadows. I pulled out another throwing knife. "Show yourself," I demanded, "I'm not in the mood for games right now."
The figure stepped out of the shadows with her hands up. "Easy there," Jinx said with a smirk, "I'm not here to cause problems," her smirk turned into a frown, "unlike you."
I raised an eyebrow, "What's that supposed to mean?"
"Please," she said with roll of her eyes, "Next time when you hashed it out with your ex make sure you're alone."
I looked at the spell caster before my eye widen causing her to smirk again, "That's right Blitzkrieg," Jinx said walking towards me with an extra sway in her steps.
Wha….
"Don't worry I won't blow your cover," she said placing a hand on my chest her smirk never leaving her face, in fact it only seemed to grow more feral. "Not only that but to hear that you're a son of Slade," she pushed me into a chair before straddling me, shocking me even further, "I must say that I didn't think you could be any more sexy." The spell caster ran a finger down my chest before going back up.
What the flying fuck!
"I must have a thing for fox boys."
I heard Light in the background laughing.
'STOP LAUGHING AND HELP ME!'
'What's wrong,' the spirit said in between chuckles, 'Can't take an eighty pound girl?' the spirit roared with laughter.
I growled in my mind, 'Rachel is my mate damn it! If she ever caught wind of this she'll kill me!'
'Not likely Jinx maybe, or maybe the demon will mark her territory.' Light gave a sinister chuckle, 'or she might dominate the witch.'
'LALALALAL I'M NOT LISTEING!'
'Wait? What are you talking about?' I asked confused before I became worried. 'I don't think Rachel swings that way…does she.'
'Well if you are bonding with her more of your fox like instincts would surface from her. Unless of course…..'
'NO!' I snapped quickly, 'Rachel is the only one for me and that's that I don't want anybody else.'
'Your body says otherwise.'
"Oh my! Someone's happy to see me," Jinx said with a sultry giggle as she began rubbing against me as she inched closer to me.
Ah fuck me!
'I think that's the plan BRO!' Pervert said giggling like a mad man.
I growled at the emotion clone, 'FUCK YOU!'
'She already is,' he snapped back howling with laughter.
'SOMEBODY HELP MEEEE!'
As if to answer my prayers someone began knocking on my door.
"Just a sec," I called out as I quickly stood up making Jinx to flip out of her position. The small frown did not escape my notice either.
Pervert was furious was well, 'Fucking co-'
I opened the door to see Gizmo and Mammoth. "Can I help you?" Although inwardly I was grateful of the distraction I still asked with an irritated tone that promised blood shed if I was disturbed for something petty. Even if Jinx knows my true identity I rather that she is the only one that knows. Besides I'm still pissed.
It had the desirable affect.
Gizmo began quaking in his boots while Mammoth hid behind him. This scene was rather comical to look at, but we must move on. I began tapping my foot, "Well?"
I guess everyone finding out that I'm the son of Deathstroke does have an upside if it can make villain's pants turn brown.
"T-T-T-The headmaster needs you in the area A-A-ASAP the Teen Titans are coming," Gizmo stuttered out.
I just glared at the mini-villain making him quivers some more, "I'll be there," I growled out.
"Have you see Jinx by the way," Mammoth muttered out quickly.
"N-" I said quickly.
"I heard," Jinx said walking out of my room giving me a quick kiss on the cheek before headed down the hall, but before she got too far the spell caster turned around and gave a sultry wink. "I'll see you later big boy," she said in a husky tone.
I quickly spun around and glared at the shocked boys. "Not a word to anybody or I'll kill you. Slowly. Painfully. Do I make myself clear?" I said blood lust dripping from my mouth.
The duo quickly shook the heads up and down.
"Good not get out of my sight," I demanded which they happily obliged.
'Dude why are you so uptight,' I heard Pervert whispered, 'You need to get laid so why don't you go grab that spell caster and give her a ride of her life. Clearly she wants you badly.'
I sent Fury after the emotion clone while I made my way towards the arena.
'This can't be good,' I thought as myself, Jinx, Gizmo, Stone and Mammoth. I was not told that we were moving tonight. I wonder what changed. I guess the Titans really do not trust me.
Not that I blame them, and it's only going to get worse once I tell them about my origins.
My true origins.
'This is going to suck soooo much,' I thought sourly as Jinx leaned against me.
Just the lights cut out and the sound of yelling came from above us. I looked up to see the rest of my team, and the robotic Cyborg, fall and land in a heap on panel that was lightening up.
That was quickly changed as the rest of the lights turned on temporary blinding them. Jinx got off of me and headed towards the platform with Gizmo, Mammoth and Stone. I stayed behind since I was ordered to only provide backup when needed.
"Not good," I heard Beast Boy say as Brother Blood came down on a floating panel.
"The Teen Titans. So nice to make your acquaintance. I'd introduce you to my students…" he trailed off as one of the panels rose up. "But I'm fairly certain you've already met," he said as Jinx, Mammoth, Gizmo, and Stone became known. I jumped up and placed myself on the side. The Titans turned to look at me and I was met with an array of looks from disgusted and hatred to sadness and pity.
I looked at Raven who looked back at me.
'They know,' I heard Rachel say in my mind.
I let out a quiet sigh, 'I know and it's only going to get worse,' I told her, 'When we get back I'm telling them everything.'
'You won't be alone,' she said to me picking up my negative thought about the outcome of the future.
'With you I never will be.'
"Attack Pattern Alpha!" Stone suddenly called out as he leapt off from his perch, the others joining in as the Titans looked on shock.
"No mercy! NO MERCY!" Blood bellowed as his students charged.
I watched as the two groups clashed with The Hive clearly having the home team advantage. They clearly have been stepping up with their training.
I watched as Robin engaged Stone. "Cyborg! Take it easy!" Robin cried before flung away by the head by Stone. 'Somebody playing for keeps,' I thought as my flicked over to Beast Boy and Terra. They were huddled behind Robo-Cy, fumbling madly with the controller.
I let out a sigh, 'I wonder who let those two in charge of that?'
"Come on, come on, how do you make this thing-" Beast Boy said as he went through the options. "Oh Attack Mode."
"Teen Titans! Go!" Robo-Cy said as he charged,
'Finally!' I jumped down into the arena and waited for him come at me…only for the robot to pull a U-turn and crash into the wall. I looked at the duo with the controllers with an irritated glare.
The two chuckled nervously while I gave a shrug. "Oh well," I gave a feral smile, "I guess I'll play with you two first." I ran forward towards the duo.
Terra reacted quickly as her eyes and hand began to glow golden yellow before she flung her arms up.
I slide down on my knees to avoid two earth pillars that tried to pin me. Getting to my feet I sprung off the ground before I began rotating my body around with my foot sticking out, which kicked Beast Boy in the chest leaving me alone with Terra. "Let's see how your hand-to-hand is," I said to Terra before I began my offensive.
Elsewhere, Gizmo and a bunch of holograms of himself were incessantly taunting Starfire via surround sound, the girl firing off starbolts. She suddenly remembered what Blitz had done to the Gordanians when they first met. The Tamaranean concentrated her starbolt at her center mass letting it grow in power before releasing it dissipating the holograms and frying the real Gizmo. Mammoth suddenly came out of nowhere and blindsided the alien. Both of them crashed into a pedestal completely destroying it. In the end Mammoth was the victor of the short brawl as Starfire was left embedded into the floor.
"Not bad," I said dodging Terra's round house before ducking and kicking her leg from under her. The geo-kinetic flipped around landing on her hand before pushing herself backwards away from me. I raised an eyebrow as Terra began attacking with ferocity. "Interesting," I said blocking a punch, "Your agility has improve as well." I couldn't help but smile with pride as the team's newest member growth.
"I have a good teacher," Terra said flinging her hands to send two boulders at me. I dodge one and kicked the other one into three pieces.
"Your teacher is very proud of you," I said kicking the broken boulders back at their owner with inflamed feet setting them on fire. Terra deflected two of pieces and stopped the one that was heading right towards her. "Let me show you what else I have learned," she said as she pulled her hand back, and with a battle roar, punched it sending hay-shape shards at me.
Fox fire enhanced shards.
With widen eyes I jumped into the air to avoid the projectiles. 'How did she do that? No one can touch Fox Fire without being burned to a crisp.'
I looked down at Terra to see her discard earth made gloves that were burning with my fire. 'She getting good,' Light commented as the girl looked back at me smirking.
I just smiled as pride swelled in my chest, 'Yes she is.'
"You might have reach," Terra said as I landed in front of her, "But I have flexibility."
Okay, I think it's time to mess with Terra and get a little payback.
"I bet BB likes your flexibility during you nightly encounters," I said with a smirk. I let out a bark of laughter as the blonde's face lit up like a Christmas tree.
"You know about that?" she said as her stance slackens greatly.
I rolled my eyes, "You do know I'm two doors down right? You're not exactly quiet," I said rushing forward taken advantage at Terra's lowered guard. "And Terra," I said getting close so that I could whispered, "I didn't know you liked it freaky. Trying to give a new meaning of doggy-style are you?"
I laughed harder as the girl went to embarrassment to full blown shock. I grabbed the geo-kinetic by the shirt and flung her to the rest of the Titans.
I looked over to Cyborg as he completely mauled his robotic copy.
I flipped my mask up and whistled as the metal hero completely demolished his double. I watched as Gizmo trapped the rest of the Titans in some kind of bubble. My gazed returned to Cyborg just as his holo-rings on his fingers was destroyed and his disguise fell.
'Crap.'
"I knew it!" Gizmo shrieked. "The stinking gack-bag is one of them!"
'Shit!'
"No," Blood said as he floated down. "He's one of us now."
'That's good –WWWHHHAAAA!'
"And I'm ready to prove it," the now-revealed Cy said, eyes glowing red.
'Damn it he fell under Blood's mind control,' I cursed stealthy pulling out my quarterstaff. I tensed my legs so that I was ready to pounce at any moment. 'Something's seems….off though,' I thought as I narrowing my eyes at Cyborg.
'If Cyborg's under Blood's mind control then how does Blood not know about you?' Light asked while the gears in our head began turning.
'Unless…..'
"I had a feeling you'd say that," Blood said stepping off of the panel, then holding up a strange device with black and gold metal. "This will amplify your power by magnitudes unimagined," he said as Cy held out his right arm, clamping it on like a giant bracelet before the teen activated his sonic cannon. "Destroy them for me, and you'll have your reward."
Reward?
"Tsh," I said quietly clicking the single-phase for my staff.
"Cyborg! No!" Robin called out.
"Please!" Starfire pleaded.
"Come on, buddy!" Beast Boy said begging. "We're your friends!"
"Sorry, but I have new friends," Cy said coldly.
I crouched getting ready to put myself in between myself and cyborg if I have to.
"Sean! Don't please," I heard Rachel said inside my head, "You'll be killed!"
She must have picked up what I've been thinking. We've truly bonded then. I looked over to Rachel staring at my eyes. "I must," I told her looking back at Cyborg, "A world without you, is a world not worth living in."
Cyborg glanced at and I narrowed my eyes barring my sharp canine teeth. The metal hero winked at me. I paused and became confused before it clicked for me. 'HA! I knew it.'
Cy suddenly let out a loud- "Psych!" as he rounded his sonic cannon on Blood, the man caught off guard for a quickly brought up a crimson shield at the last second to block the shot. When he did that there was a distinct copper smell in the air.
'That shield,' I thought with wide eyes as Cyborg's cannon shot blasted the roof, 'it's made out of blood.'
The school began shaking and falling apart, 'Talking about a lucky shot.'
"A foolish choice, my friend. Very foolish," Blood growled under his breath as Cy lowered his cannon.
"You could've been one of us," Jinx said reproachfully.
"I could've been a lot of things," Cy answered before Jinx turned towards me.
"Creed…" Jinx trailed off.
I looked at the girl before I smirked, "Yea…no." I said speeding ahead and slammed an open palm at Gizmo pushing him into Mammoth.
"Whose side are you on braf brain!" Gizmo then shrieked.
"Mine," I replied before I straightened myself up dropping my disguised revealing my snow white hair, fox ears, and tail. "Oh man it feels so good to be me," I said peeling off the domino mask and flicking it to the side.
I looked over to Jinx, "Oh well,"the girl sighed as she walked towards me. I became confused which turned into shock when the hex mage grabbed my shirt and yanked me down for a kiss on the lips.
Jinx pushed me away and gave somebody behind me a victory smirk, "See you later witch," she said before back flipping to her friends.
Suddenly my fox ears were pulled by a black hand.
"I didn't do anything," I pleaded with Raven in my mind as my eyes watered from the pain of my ears being pulled.
"I know," the mage said, "but I'm still pissed. Bitch better realized her place."
"Can she do it after you let me go!" I whined.
"Raven, get us out of here," Robin said after he and Cy fist bumped.
"Thought you'd never ask," Raven said as I landed in front of them.
A raven-like silhouette shooting up through the academy's ceiling.
It didn't take us long to get back to the Tower, but when we did I went straight to the couch and flopped down as this mission having taken its toll on me. I felt something heavy sitting next to my head and I looked up to see that it was Raven.
Said mage glared at me before bobbing me on the head.
"Ow whats that for?" I asked rubbing my head.
Raven just turned to look at Robin. "For scaring me idiot."
I let out a chuckled breath, "But I'm your idiot."
"So… Mind telling us what that bit with you and Blood was about?" the Boy Wonder asked I turned my head wanting to hear about this as well.
"Sorry I had to play rough with you guys," he said before removing the amplifier and holding it up. "But when I found out what this thing could do, I had to make Brother Blood trust me."
"A little warning would have been nice," I muttered earning another bob on the head.
"But if all those HIVE kids were brainwashed, why not you two?" Raven asked as if she hadn't done anything at all.
"Because half my brain is electronic. He may have been able to fool the man, but he couldn't fool the machine," Cy said pointing to the left side of his head.
"And I have an 800 year old spirit living inside of my head along with my emotions," I explained smirking a bit, "Blood going to need a lot more than fancy mind powers to convert me."
"Which means the next time we face him, we have our own secret weapon," Robin said with a smile.
'Maybe he forgot about…..' I heard one of my emotion clones say.
"As for you," Robin said spinning around my and giving a look that could kill.
'…Never mind.'
"Why the hell didn't you tell me you were Slade's son!?"
I looked at Robin before looking at the other Titans. Each of them had a concern look, the only one that didn't was Robin.
"I-"
The Titan alarm went off causing me to look up at the flashing red light before going back to Robin who was still giving me a death glare.
"This isn't over," he growled as he pointed at me. "TITANS GO!"
I let out a sigh as we left the Tower.
The trouble in the city turned out to be Cinderblock and Overload who oddly working together, but that's not all it didn't look like they were just causing chaos without a particular reason.
Robin split up the team to take on the two power house villains. The first team would take on Cinderblock this team consisted of Cyborg, Robin, and Starfire.
The second team was Raven, Beast Boy, Terra, and me. We were in charge of taken out Overload.
I don't know how the others were doing but my team was in a little trouble. Normally I can easily overpower Overload with my lightening, but this time he was able to redirect it elsewhere, mostly at me.
I was flung into the air by Overload's punch sending me into an alleyway. I landed right into a dumpster causing to fold around me. With a grunt I pushed myself out of the metal container. "Damn it now I'm going to need a new change of clothes…and a bath," I said dusting myself off.
"What a filthy mouth," a cold calculating voice said behind me. My blood froze as I recognized the owner of that voice. "Didn't your mother…."
I spun around and snarled, "DON'T YOU FUCKING DARE BRING MY MOTHER INTO THIS YOU BASTARD!" I roared picking up the dumpster and threw it at Slade.
My father easily moved to the side as the crossed his arms behind him. "I guess not," he said with a mock sigh.
I pulled my lips back and growled, "What are you doing here?" I demeaned pulling out a throwing knife.
Slade chuckled, "I told you before once your done with you mission I was coming to get you." He began walking around me and I moved my body so that I was always had him in my sight, but I still kept my other senses up. No telling if he brought my siblings with him or not.
"Besides," the man in front of me said pulling one of his hands and waving towards the general direction where the Titan's continued their battles, "Do you really think that they will ever trust you again. After all you did keep a very big secret from them."
He paused tapping his masked chin, "Then again there is something else that you are keeping from them."
"Yea well it's no thanks to you that they know about you," I snapped, "It doesn't matter when we get back I'm going to tell them everything." Slade chuckled again.
"What makes you think that you're going back?"
This time I was the one that chuckled, "Your really are insane if you think I'm going with you. I'll find a way to beat you."
"My child you don't have a choice," Slade said and I could tell that he had an blood thirsty smile on his face. "Especially when they find out that you not a part of this universe and the fact that back at your home all of this," he waves his hands around, "is entrainment."
Slade puts his arms down, "I bet you love living in your fantasy world don't you."
I moved to pounce on him when Slade turns his head, "What do you think Robin?" I froze and slowly turned my head to where Slade was looking at to see a shell shocked Robin.
"Oh dear I've seem to have caused more trouble," Slade said without a hint of remorse, "I'm just going to leave you two alone to sort this out." He disappeared into the shadows without another word.
Robin continued to stand there a surprised look plastered on his face a mere 5 feet away. The silence was then broken.
"Is that true?" Robin said in a still surprised tone.
"Yes Robin," I said with a clenched fist, I couldn't bring himself to look at my teammate, my friend. Everything is coming end now.
"This whole time you have been lying to us." Robin was starting to show some of his frustration. 'Why wouldn't I be mad?' I thought bitterly.
'We lied to everyone,' Light said, 'it's time to come clean.' I turned around and faced Robin. "All my life I didn't even know who my father was, it wasn't until I came here did I found out that it was Slade."
"When?"
"When you guys went and faced Trident with Aqualad," I looked down to the ground, "I don't like this anymore than you do Robin, trust me," I could tell that Robin was definitely not trusting a word I say.
"Trust you! TRUST YOU!" he yelled, "You lied to us. You hide the fact that you are Slade's son and that you came from a different universe, and you expect us to trust you! You could have been giving Slade information all this time." Robin yelled. It would seem that to him all clues led up to me being the traitor.
"Use you damn head Robin. If I had been giving Slade an inside about the Titans, do you really believe that we would be standing here?" I roared pointing an angry finger to the ground.
"How I can trust anything you say," Robin yelled as I flung his arms around, "Slade's right this is just a sick twisted fantasy for you!"
"What! You would rather believe Slade than me. We've been a team since the very beginning and you would rather believe Slade over me!" I said infuriated that he wouldn't believe me. Granted I have kept secrets but this, "I admit that that I hide a lot of things from you guys, but only to protect you and countless of others. And don't you dare say that I'm just on this team just because of some childhood dream."
"I joined this team I thought that for once in my life I could have people I could call friends, family," I my voice began breaking, "I wanted to find happiness that I have never had before, please don't take this away from me."
The Boy Wonder was not buying it.
"Leave, and never return," Robin stated in a cold voice, "If I ever see your face around here. I'll take you down. Hard."
I can't believe this. This is bullshit.
I felt my heart stop beating, my blood run cold, and the life in me die. Once again the universe has taken my happiness away and destroyed it. "That is how it is then." I said backing into the darkness of the alleyway. "He was right," I muttered to myself.
My father was right.
Robin felt nearing footsteps. He turned around to see the Titans running towards him. "Robin! We are victorious! We have defeated the monsters! Where is Blitz so we can go and celebrate with pizza?" Starfire said, but the next words she took her by surprise.
"Gone," Robin said. "He has been lying to us the whole time. Not only is he's Slade son but he was from another universe. He knew about everything." Robin growled kicking the remains of a dumpster, "I would not be surprise if he has joined him by now." His fists were clenched. The other Titans had looks of shock painted on their faces.
Raven was in a state of shock, "What…?" she tried to reach out to find Blitz but something blocked her out.
Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! DAMN IT! DAMN IT ALLLLL!
I cursed as I ran across the roof tops; I pulled out my communicator and press one of the side buttons to summon my bike from the Tower. I can't believe this!
I know he was going to be mad and that maybe I would be thrown off the team, but for Robin to believe Slade over me! That bastard!
I landed on the ground just as my bike pulled up. I mounted it and looked over to the side where a group of people gathered what looked like a T.V. store.
"This just in," a news reporter announced, "We have received an anonymous tip from an unknown source that the member of Jump City's teenage superhero group, Blitzkrieg, is the son of none other than Slade Wilson aka Deathstroke the Terminator. The same man that has tormented Jump City."
And just like that, right before my eyes the people I protected with my life turned on me.
"I knew that there was something evil about that kid."
"Yeah! What was a person like that doing with a bunch of superheroes?"
"Possibly as a spy for his father."
"Now the Police or STAR Labs will take him to jail!"
"Well I hope that the Titans take him down!"
"Look there he is!"
I looked at the road ahead of me and punched the accelerator.
It would seem that I'm no longer welcomed here.
So I drove as fast as I could. I was weaving in and out of traffic all the while ignoring the honking of horns and the cursers thrown at me as I passed people on the road. I just put as much distance as I could between me and this city.
But where would I go?
Gotham is out since you know who's teacher is there. Metropolis is a likely place as well as is Keystone City, but the big guys ran those cities and once word get out.
Atlantis is also out due to the fact that it is underwater and the people there do not like outsiders, or so I'm told. Besides: Auqaman.
Themyscira, or rather Paradise Island, is defiantly not an option. As much as my perverted side would love to go there, I really don't feel like getting raped then killed. Again that's Wonder Woman's stomping grounds.
Is there any place I could go?
Suddenly the area around me engulfed into flames.
"Don't you think that was a little much," Rose asked her half-brother Grant.
Grant tossed aside the used detonator. "He'll live, get ready," he said as a figure came strolling out of the fire. Dozens upon Dozens of Slade-bots appeared.
Blitz came strolling out of the flames like he just returned from hell itself. He pulled out a quarter-staff and twirled it around while extending it fully.
"I think it's only far to warn you," he growled as lightening and fire crackled around the staff. The area around his lips and eyes became black, and his claws unsheathed themselves. "I'm having a really fucking bad day."
"But Robin, why did he leave?" Starfire had asked Robin on the brink of tears.
The Titans had returned to the Tower and instantly began drilling their leader for answers as to why one of their own left.
"He's gone Starfire. Forget about him. He probably went to join Slade." Robin said coldly.
"Dude!" Beast Boy called out, "Why are you all pissed for? So what if he's Slade's son. I bet you he didn't join Slade," he said pointing a finger at Robin, "and besides you joined Slade and we don't treat you any different."
"This is why he didn't tell you guys," Raven said gaining a little respect for the changeling, "Because he knew you react this way." She finished pointing a finger at Robin. "Think about it Robin, how would you all feel if you were Slade's child? Would you feel the same way he did or acted the same way?"
No answer.
"That's what I thought."
"You knew," Robin growled, "When did he tell you?"
"Yes," Raven growled back ready to tear this fool apart, "You remember the week after we defeated Trident, when he was all depressed."
"Yea tell me about it he was worse than you," Beast Boy joked trying to lighten up the mood.
It failed.
"Not now Beast Boy," Terra said sharply nudging him in the side as Raven glared at him.
"I went to him and that's when he told me," Raven continued, "He told me about his twin sister being Zero, his father being Slade, and the serum that Slade injected into him."
"What! His sister is Zero!"
"Yes, all is life he didn't know that he even had a twin much less who is father was," Raven said after taken a deep breath to call down.
"Okay fine, what about him being from a different universe," Robin shot back, "Did he tell you about that too."
Raven "Yes," she said her fist clenched. Then an idea popped into her head
The leader ignored the mage, "He knew about everything that was going to happen and he sat back and did nothing," Robin continued to fume, "This is all but a sick game for him to fill his childish dream he…."
-BAM-
"Enough," everybody turn to see Starfire, a fist implanted into a now flatten table as Raven summoned a small book into her arms, "Don't you dare stand here and accuse him of all this being something amusing to him." Starfire fumed shocking everybody, "You guys have no idea what kind of pain that he went through what he still going through."
"What are you talking about Star?" Terra said.
Raven open up the book. It was Blitzkrieg's journal, he had told her to use this book if something like this happened. They both agreed to omit a few things like his secret mission from the book. The mage was surprise to hear that he was sent here to defeat Trigon. When she asked who it was that sent him here that was when he told her about his encounter with her father and he did to him.
So he couldn't really remember anything from the shows and the things that he did remember were things that have either already happen or he change things so much that it didn't really matter.
Raven flicks though the book stopping at certain page, and began reading out loud getting everybody's attention.
Blitzkrieg's Journal Entry #31
It has been one week since the fight with Cinderblock, Plasmus, and Zero's revelation. I don't think what she says is true I mean I was not born from this dimension so how can she be my twin sister it doesn't make any sense. But what worries me the most is that Slade knows that I am not from here, which can lead to big trouble.
Should I tell the others about Zero, about me? I don't know I am so confused I don't know what to do. I wish I had someone to talk to about this…..
Raven paused as she scrolls down the page.
Sorry about that had to deal with some elemental brothers. Now where was I ah yes, you know I do have someone to talk to in fact I have five of them. I won't tell them yet not until I have all of the facts so when I do I'll tell them about my 'Sister'.
I told Robin what happen between me and Slade. I didn't tell him that he invited me to join him. Better yet I won't tell anybody that, because I am not joining him I'll find out about my father and Samantha on my own. Well it is late I need to get some sleep. Night.
Robin felt his heart pang with pain.
Blitzkrieg's Journal Entry #57
I'm the son of Deathstroke the Terminator. A monster. That makes me a son of a monster, and with that serum I'm a monster too. I don't want to believe it I can't believe it. I can't even show my face to my family. No I'm not worthy enough to be called them family. I'm not even worthy enough to be in the same room as them. I should run away I have to protect them.
Maybe I should end it all. That way I protect everyone and not just the Teen Titans but the Justice League and all the other superhero's out there. God I don't know what to do anymore.
Starfire began tearing up as Raven read on. Raven was having trouble as well, but she pressed on.
Blitzkrieg's Journal Entry #57.5
I just got done talking with Raven. I told her everything, well about my parentage I haven't told her about my origin. Not yet, but I will tell her and the others soon though. They disserve the truth, she deserves the truth. Anyway Raven talked me out of suicide and turning myself in to Arkham, thank god too. I don't think I could handle the Joker I probably would have ended killing him. Jeez his jokes are worse than BB's on a good day.
Terra and Cy chuckled a bit while Beast Boy fumed a bit before chuckling himself.
Even knowing the truth about Slade and Zero Raven still accepted me. She didn't throw me out or turn me in. She didn't even run and told the others for that I'm so glad; I think I finally found my place in life.
Raven's amulet began glowing and shaking as her sadness began pouring out of her.
Blitzkrieg Journal Entry # 58
Family. That is what the Titans are to me. This feeling I have being with them being whole. Complete. They are my family, true I do miss my mother, brother, and sister, but I know that they would want me to be happy. Although I am still a bit shock about my father being from this dimension, and I can't help but wonder about me. Does me being here threaten the balance of this dimension?
Robin leaned against the wall and slide down. What had he done?
He pushed away a friend, no a brother, just because of his personal vendetta. The one thing Blitz needed to keep him stable, the one thing that he ever wanted in his life, the one he deserved after the way he has been treated, and he took all that away in a single moment.
How could he be so blind?
Perhaps Slade was right; maybe they were alike in many ways.
Blitzkrieg's Journal Entry #75
Well it was bound to happen. Somebody found out my secret. As you well know today is Valentine's Day, and I won't go into details on what happen but let's just say that it started off like shit and ended great.
I told Starfire about my origins and she wasn't mad. Okay maybe she was a little upset but she totally understood. Maybe I should tell the others, eh I think about it.
"Stop," Robin murmured resting his head in his arms, "Just stop."
Everyone looked at their leader as not only he but everyone understood exactly what had happen.
Starfire floated over to the down leader and gave him a hug. "In times like these one should give hugs, no?" she said as the alien gave a surprisingly weak hug.
"Thanks Star," Robin said he returned the hug.
Cyborg moved towards the computer and began pulling up applications.
"There something else you guys should know about," Raven said as she flicked the book ahead some. "You guys need to truly understand the burden that Blitz carries by having this kind of information." She turned back to the book and began reading.
Blitzkrieg's Journal Entry # 149.5
I can't believe this. I stop Terra from running away which in turn joining Slade and betray us all. And what's better is that my memory seems to be returning. Even if it is a little bit.
Everybody looked at Terra with wide eyes. The earth-mover slumped to the ground with a shock expression. "Wha…." she gasped out. How could she betray them? There was no way she would ever do that them after they gave her a home, a family, a purpose, love. The very thought of hurting Beast Boy alone sent shivers down her spine.
"This is the curse that he as to live with," Raven said closing the book, "Luckily most of the information was wiped from his mind by a…powerful entity." The half-demon did not want to mention her father. "But he still has valuable information that, in the wrong hands could lead to a lot of deaths."
"A lot of good people." The mage let that statement hang in the air.
Cyborg let out a growl before slamming his fist down. "Well so much for that," he said turning back to the Titans who were staring at him. "I've tried tracking him down but his locator beacon is deactivated," the cybernetic teen explained.
"So what do we do," Starfire asked.
Robin let out a sigh, "We'll keep an eye out," he said getting back up, "That's the only thing we can do right now." The Boy Wonder went to the main computer and typed in a few commands. "I'm putting out an alert," Robin said turning back to the Titan's, "If there any sign of him we'll know that very second."
"That's it!" Beast Boy said turning away from comforting Terra, "He's our friend we need to go out there and find him!"
Raven felt the same way but only in a deeper way, and she can't let the others know about their relationship.
It wasn't because she was afraid of the teasing or anything like that. The mage can easily take care of those fools. Nor Blitz's growing female fans could bother her; they were minor annoyances nothing more. What she was afraid is that Robin or the members of JLA would step in and separate them, or worse Sean's clan. Raven was under no delusion that the Fox Clan would take the relationship in stride. In fact she fully expects them to step in and do something about it. They may take him away or worse once they find out who her father was.
Not that it matters anyway.
He is gone.
And she was alone.
Here you guys go.
I'm going to skip around the Brother Blood stuff as it never really interested me all that much, but I will add a little something for you DC comic fans.
I'll try and post the next chapter as soon as I can, but I make no promises.
Next time we'll find out the out come of Blitz's fight and the Titan's next adventure as they...well I'll let you find out.
Till next time.
