Hello! I updated in celebration that my school had a snow day!
Note: I'm limited to words thanks to dial-up.

Chapter 4: Criminals are Criminals
Red X's lair:
Raven was lying down on Red X's soft bed. Red X was at his computer figuring out where to attack next. He looked over to look at Raven. She was still sleeping peacefully.
Her eyes stirred open. She blinked a few times before opening her eyes completely.
"Uh-where am I?"
"You, Raven, are in my lair. And I would appreciate it if you didn't talk. I'm trying to work here." Red X continued to type on his computer.
"You! How dare you kidnap me! I have to help Robin! And you dare to take me away!"
"Apparently, you don't know how to be quiet, do you?" Red X said bluntly. "Oh, and Robin's fine. I helped him."
"You helped him? That's impossible! All you can do is steal!"
Red X walked up to her, but stopped a few feet away from the bed.
"Yes, I did. I gave him my blood. As I told him a few months ago."
"Huh?" Raven's face fell in pure confusion.
"Oh right, you were frozen or something. He said, 'I thought you didn't like playing the hero.' Do you know what I told him?"
Raven nodded her head.
"Doesn't mean I don't know how."
Raven was surprised. She knew people in Jump City cared for the titans. Red X must've been a citizen. He also used to care, but what did she know? He could've hated them all their life!
But what really surprised her was that: she wasn't tied up. She got up from the bed and walked towards X. She realized he must've done something to the room, because he was just standing there.
She felt a force field.
Criminals are Criminals.
