Chapter 5
Robin held the note in his hand. All it had on it was the large S that had practiclly ruined part
of there life and almost killed Raven. It may have only been one letter but it said so much. He took
the note and walked down the hallway. It felt like the longest walk he had ever taken and he was
just satring at the note the whole way. Question's ran through his mind. Why would Slade want the babies?
What good would babies do him? Why would he leave evidence telling the titans it was him? He shook his
head and quietly entered the living room. Beast Boy was up against the wall holding Raven up against
him will she cried quietly. Starfire was talking to Cyborg and as soon as Robin walked in flew over
to him. She was crying as well.
" What will we do Robin? I am scared for the tiny babies." She said while fresh tears welled up in her eyes.
" I don't know, Starfire." He said wiht a shake of his head while he held her adn she cried on his shoulder.
Cyborg came up and Starfire went over to help comfort Raven.
He looked at Robin. " What did you find man?" he blankly asked.
Robin held up the picture and Cyborg's eyes widened. After a few minutes he regained his composure. He shook his head and asked " Why would Slade want the babies?"
Robin felt so helpless because he was usually the one to know the answers. " I don't know anythign right now"
He looked over at Raven and whispered some more to Cyborg. Finally they agreed that it wold be best to show her what
they found. They went over and Robin knelt beside her. He tried to think of a way to break it to her but couldent quiet
say it. It was soo hard
(ok so i don't know how to do this but im gonna write what Raven was doing while Robin was investigating and stuff so its like while he was doing this she was doing that... somebody tell me how to do this please!!!!)
Raven watched as Robin left the room to go look into the babies room. The tightness in her chest was finally
subsiding and she just stared crying on Beast Boy's shoulder. SHe didn't know what to do. Her babies were gone.
Beast Boy was murmering words of comfort to her but none of it helped. She reached for her hand and
whispered " They took our babies away." and just kept crying. It broke Beast Boy's heart to here her
say this and he had no clue what to do to help. Right now all he wanted was to calm Raven down and find his babies.
Throught the tears she saw Robin walk back in and Starfire fly to him. She was crying and takling
but she couldent here what he was saying. He held somethign behind his back but she couldent quite make out what it was.
He was talking to CYborg now and Starfire had come over to her and layed a comforting hand on her shoulder.
Now Robin was coming over and he was holding the thing that was behind his back in front of him. SHe could see it was a paper.
Sitting up she looked up at him with hopefull eyes but had the feeling the news wasent good.
" I found something in the babies room, Raven." he said calmly.
Raven's eyes lighted up. " What did you find?" she said her voice edged with hope.
Robin's heart sunk. She thought it was a good thing. He held out the paper and simply said " This"
He watched as her eyes went from lit to black. Then anger filled them. She started breathing rapidly
and right as she was about to use her powers on something she cried out in pain. Beast Boy grabbed her and
pulled her onto the floor again.
"RAVEN CALM DOWN YOUR GOING TO HURT YOURSELF!!!!" He yelled
She stopped as teh color drained from her face. She relized who had her babies.
" He's going to kill our babies... he's going to kill them Beast Boy ... please no!!" SHe was sobbing now as he held her and the relization of the situation hit them all.
The next hour was terrible. Robin and Cyborg worked ruthlessly on the crime tracker trying to find Slade but were having no leads.
Starfire made some kind of luck pudding and Raven just sat there in Beast Boy's arms. All of the sudden the T.V's screen
came on and a face popped up. Raven gasped and her lungs started racing again. It was him.
Slade's face came up on the screen.
" Hello titans." he said too calmly.
Robin walked in front of the screen. " Where are they Slade?" he asked his own anger rising to quickly to hold.
" Why who do you mean?" he asked failing to act innocent. " What these little things?" he said holding up Apollo and Aris.
Robin's anger boiled over. " Give them back to us SLade!" he shouted.
" Tut tut Robin. Don't yell. You woulden't want to upset the babies. No I don't think I will give them back. They both have incredible
powers. It really is amazing. I think ill keep them... maybe raise them as my own." He said then his voice sharpened.
"Unless you give me the girl." he finished pointing to Raven.
Beast Boy stood up. " Why do you want her?!?!" he half asked half screamed.
"Now if i told you that then this would be no fun. But i will tell you i already have a hold on her. Those things taht happen
to her that you call panic attacks well now that's not true. I control those. Anytime she gets worried or tries to use her powers
a little device i put in her will squeeze her lungs. You'd better be careful. It could kill her and then these poor babies would have
no one. Except me!" He lauhed then his image disappeared from the screen. Robin tried to trace it but had no luck.
Raven just stood there her mind blank. Finalyl everything went blank and she fainted. Her dreams were filled with terror and her babies.
If only she could help them. She decided then in dream state that she would trade herself for the babies. The babies ment so much more.
