Sorry it has been along time since I have posted. I was stuck on the big battle and end, which will be next chapter. I do not own Teen Titans, but I do own Desert Storm, Britannia, and Celina. And Starteller794 and I own the light and dark heart.
Chapter 10
The titans were now full and restocked. The titans had asked around and found out were Desert Storm was, and there was still no sign of Rage. The titans were told to go west and they would run into Desert's "lair". The sun was about at eye level and blinding them as they walked toward it.
"Are we there yet?" Starfire said panting. She was tired of this place.
"Do you see a building in front of us? No you don't does, that tell you," Cyborg practically yelled. He was also annoyed of this place and wanted to go home to real food and video games.
"Cyborg be nice," BB yelled from behind him. "We don't need you making things worse."
"Guys, come on. Just last a little bit longer, and then I promise we will never leave the tower again," Robin said trying to make everyone calm down.
"Personally, I don't see why you guys hate it here. I find it wonderful," said Raven hugging herself.
They kept walking until it was to dark to see. Then set up camp, hoping it was the last time they would have to.
Robin sat up and rubbed his eyes. He looked around and sat there stunned. He shook Star so she would wake up to. She had the same reaction.
Cyborg looked at them, "Is that what I think it is?" he said looking back at what was in front of them. Beast boy had also woken up to see it. Right in front of them was a huge Pyramid with two statues out front. Beast Boy turned around and woke up Raven. All the titans stood up and walked closer to the magnificent block building. The two statues were girls. One had a darker appearance then the other. They was one on each side of the stairs and they were reaching for each other. Therefore, it pretty much created an archway.
"So you found me," said a voice. Desert storm appeared at the top of the stairs. He started walking down the stairs.
"Desert Storm! Tell us why you took the hearts. Why do you need them?" Robin yelled to him grabbing his battle staff.
"Do you really think I'm just going to come out and tell you," Desert Storm said with a laugh. "If I tell you I have to kill you." He said jumping down toward them and throwing a cage on them. The Titans fell to the ground from shock and force from the cage.
Robin felt a weird pain in his arm and fell uncurious. The other titans did to. Robin awoke to find himself tied up to a chair. He found that Starfire was on one side of him and BB on the other. He could she that Cyborg was in a steel cage about 10 feet away. On the other side of the room was a stone throne. In it Desert storm. On the wall farthest form them was two sarcophaguses.
Desert Storm got up and walked over to him. "How do you like my home," he said to Robin.
"It doesn't look like it's yours," Robin managed to get out even though the rope cut tightly a crossed his chest.
"Ah you mean the girls. True they use to live here, but I am now the only current live occupant." he said coming up and looking at Starfire. "But I wouldn't mind sharing it with you my lady," he continued as he stroked her face. She closed her eyes and turned her head.
"Don't Touch her!" Robin yelled.
"Oh, she must be yours," He said looking at him. He then looked at Beast Boy who had now awakened. "And I bet that other crazy girl is his," he said shaking his head. "You know how hard she was to knock out. I had to put twice as much stuff in her then I did the rest of you."
"Well right now she's kind of insane," said BB with a sigh, "She's not normally like that, at all."
"She's not," Cyborg, blurted from his cage.
"Are you talking about me!" she said perking up and then trying to kiss BB. She struggles and struggled to get free. "Ok this is not cool, not cool at all."
"What is she trying to do?" Desert Storm asked.
"Normally after she faints she kisses him," Robin said. "And trust me she has fainted a lot since we last met."
"What did she do drink a hole bottle of fatigue medicine?" Desert Storm said.
"Exactly," Robin and Beast Boy said at once. Desert hit his head.
"Any Way now that you all are awake it is time for you all to witness me becoming rich," Desert said walking to the case holding the stones.
"What exactly are you going to do and why did you need the stones?" Robin asked.
"Well since you guys are going to live here and be my slaves I guess there is no harm in telling you," Desert said walking back over to them. Robin rolled his eyes. They could all escape if they wanted to. "With these two hearts I will open up there vault and find all the riches I could ever want."
"They who?" Robin asked.
"You obviously didn't read about your subject very well," Desert said. "To give you the easier version. They are Princess Britannia and Princess Celina. They were Princesses of the same era who came from rivaling nations, but became friends. When there parents found out there were furious and sent the princesses to different parts of the world. When this happened, they both took a heart, the light heart Britannia's, and the dark heart Celina's. They also promised that when they became queens they would have the fighting stopped, and they did. They also combined the countries and ruled together. When they died, there bodies were buried and the hearts were separated so the vault, with there riches, could not be opened. However, as the price, the legend goes that there cannot rest until the hearts are reunited and can see each other one more time. So I plan to open the vault to take there riches," Desert continued.
"But aren't you worried that there spirits will come back and protect it?" Cyborg pointed out.
"Nah, besides I have been talking to them so there on my side," Desert said in reassurance.
"Sure," Robin mumbled under his breath. Desert Storm walked back to the Throne. Under the Thrown was two heart shaped holes. Above it was a riddle. The Sun will show you the way, it said.
"Uh, are any of you good at riddles?" Desert asked the Titans.
Robin rolled his eyes. "I can just let me out of these ropes,"
"Fine, but you better not pull any fast ones on me," Desert clarified.
"I won't," Robin said while Desert freed him from the rope. Robin walked over to it and read it aloud. "The Sun will show you the way," He thought for a second then rolled his eyes, could this have been any easier. "They obviously meant like on a compass the one on the east which is where the sun rises is on the right, which the light heart goes there. Then the dark heart goes in the west or left where the sun sets."
"Thank you, now stand there while I put the stones in," Desert said running to it and pushing Robin out of the way. He put the hearts in there places and everything started to glow.
