There's really nothing to say up here but a note that the course that I used is literally the one that the Titans had in Terra, because I didn't want to create my own one.

So credit to Teen Titans for the course on top of everything else.

First there were some lasers that I had to dodge.

Pew pew pew at first I assumed I could easily dodge them, but quickly realized that they were growing in number.

I let them hit me at first, thinking that my invulnerability would impress him, until it hit me that the laser probably wouldn't hurt anyone -or at least very much- and were likely there for dodging.

I quickly flew up and destroyed the blasters with my bolts, but the damage was likely done.

After that I noticed some large fist things coming out from the ground, which were fairly easy to avoid thanks to my flight.

Then there were some large… um… I don't know the name of them, but they had a frame with a piece in the middle that slid down towards you.

Of course thanks to my powers of flight, it never really posed a threat. And because when the sliding piece went down, it left a hole between it and the frame, I could easily just fit through it and not lose points due to flying above the obstacles.

Then I think a hole opened up beneath me, but I was already flying, so it didn't really matter.

Then some things that blasted disks popped out of the ground. I dealt with them the same as I did with the lasers.

As I did that, I realized that… right in front of me was the finish line.

It felt impossible. I'd been so terrified of the test… and this was it. I'd hardly had to try.

As I flew down, I felt a dreading feeling that something was going to happen. Like there was some surprise challenge. An ambush of some sort.

I turned to see that Robin and Terra, who were watching from the sidelines were just as confused.

"You're in." Slade said indifferently.

It was almost like… like he'd never actually been planning this being a real test. Like he only wanted it to look like he wasn't already planning on recruiting me.

He obviously wasn't desperate or anything, -he had two Apprentices after all- so why have such an easy course?

Of course it was always possible that he was just trying to make sure I was better than my little sister. I'm sure she couldn't defeat even a course as easy as this one.

All my questions left my mind when I noticed Robin running towards me, and all that me getting in meant.

If I was in, then I'd be with my beloved Robin. I'd be able to win his heart. And we'd be together forever.

"Congrats on getting in! you did gre-" as he spoke I scooped him up in a hug.

"I'm in." I told him, happily. "I'm in, and that means that we can spend more time together!"

He almost seemed to hesitate, but after a moment he hugged me back with a smile.

And I swear that hug, that moment of being with him. That knowledge that I'd get more of these moments… It was the best prize of all.

I know a lot of you might be disappointed about the anticlimax, but there's a reason for it I swear!

On a far more important note, I'm considering putting this on hiatus.

You see I'm hardly getting any reviews. And when literally the only review about Blackfire -despite me stating multiple times that I needed those- was from my sister. Well I'm bound to lose a lot of my motivation.

I'm not going to kill it off -I mean I haven't even decided for sure on putting it on hiatus- because I still have a lot of ideas for this story. I just need to come to terms with the fact that pretty much nobody seems to care enough to review.

So please for the love of god, read and review!
