After Adondis was beaten and taken to jail, everyone was pretty tired, but was relieved that they had won. As everyone was heading to the T-car Beastboy looked around, and asked the same question everyone was thinking of, "Where's Raven?" Starfire and everyone shrugged.

"I have not seen friend Raven when we were kicking the butt of Adondis." Starfire responded innocently; Robin looked around, Cyborg was looking at his arm scanning for Raven's communicator, Beastboy transformed into a dog sniffing the air, while Starfire continued to look around.

"Yo, I have bad news," Cyborg interrupted the silence as he looked at his arm, "I can't find Raven's communicator signal anywhere, almost like it was destroyed." Cyborg looked up as Robin's face went cold,

"Okay listen up, split up and scour the city for Raven if you find any clues call immediately." Robin instructed, "Titans Go!" Robin shouted as everyone went in separate directions looking for their mysterious friend.

Raven's POV

I was slowly gaining consciousness; my eyes were blurry as I heard faint car horns and the waves splashing on the beach. My eyes were soon back to normal, but that's when I became aware of my surroundings; I was tied to a chair, my hands bound behind me with rope, luckily my legs were free, and I was in the middle of a room, but I felt the bracelet on my wrist slowly imprinting my skin with the pressure on my hands. I looked around me; the room I was in was small, brown walls, a dresser a few feet ahead of me in the corner, a window that was about 6 feet high, I turned my head to see a single bed with black sheets and a white comforter, just a plain, normal room you could say. I closed my eyes as I hear the sea, figuring I was close since I could smell the pure salt in the air that hung loosely in the room. I opened my eyes and struggled in the rope, but just as I was about to get out I heard someone coming to my door. I quickly stopped my movement as the person who dared kidnap me came in; Red X.

"I see you're up," He said, as he came in with a bottle of water, "Do you want a drink?" He asked, as he held the bottle to the edge of my lips, but I shook my head defiantly.

"No," I seethed, he just shrugged and leaned on the dresser where I saw my communicator all smashed up. I quirked an eyebrow, as he looked at the communicator and chuckled,

"Didn't want you're friends finding you here, which would ruin my plans." He replied as I stared at the white sockets in his mask.

"And that would involve me, because……?" I asked as I saw him advanced towards me, and put his arms on each side of me resting on the arm rests.

"Why would I tell you?" He asked his face close to mine.

"Because I am INVOLVED!" I yelled, as he just stared at me.

"Again, why would I tell you?" He asked again, my rage was boiling.

"Just tell me!" I yelled, he shrugged and turned away from me his arms crossed over his chest, as he spoke with his back to me.

"Fine, you're here because of Slade." He responded and turned around to look at me.

"What!" I yelled, I was struggling against the ropes and what do you know they fell off. I lunged at him tackling him to the ground.

"I was kidding," He joked and chuckled, I raised my fist just about to punch him, but he flipped us so I was underneath, I do not like that position.

"Ughh!!!" I yelled, I looked up at him, "Go to hell! Why am I here?!"

"Because I want you to be," He answered back, my anger was boiling radiating heat through out my body. I spit in his mask as I kicked him off of me.

"Tell me this then, why did you hire Adondis to help you? I mean come on? Have you lost your touch?" I asked as we both started to circle each other.

"No!" He yelled as he tried to land a punch on me, but I easily dodged, "I hired him, because he was so keen on defeating you, Titans. So I hired him to be a distraction so I could get you in a second while your friends were distracted, and he was easy to trick." He explained as he tried landing punches on me but I either blocked or dodged.

"What do you mean easy to trick?" I asked as I switched my tactics to go on offense, as I began to throw punches at him.

"Well, I mean come on the kid had a crush on you didn't you notice? All I had to do was pretend that once he 'took down' the Teen Titans he could have you, but I was lying of course. So he took the bait, what do you know he was dumb enough to fall for it." Red X chuckled, but I jumped up and kicked him in the chest making him stumble back. I tackled him to the ground again, but I straddled him and pinned his arms above his head.

"Since when can you fight Sunshine?" Red X asked, as I rolled my eyes.

"Don't call me Sunshine, X." I warned, but he chuckled.

"Whatever you say," I closed in on him, and took my one hand and hit him in the face.

"Just because I don't have any powers doesn't mean I can't fight." I stared at him, his breathing was labored.

"Never said I didn't think you couldn't fight." I looked at him, my head cocked to the side, but he flipped us my confusion as his advantage.

"Let me GO!" I yelled thrashing in his grip, but I couldn't do anything, well, there was one thing. I stopped thrashing and I carefully moved my knee as he was distracted,

"No! I have you whether you like it or not." He replied sternly, I had me knee in the perfect place.

"Why? Why me? What are you going to do with me?" I asked trying to sound innocent,

"Three things; One, you are the most powerful out of all of the Titans, Second, Slade said he had unfinished business with you he wanted to settle, and Third," I couldn't hear him he said it so quietly under his breath I couldn't make out on word. I sighed, and prepared my knee.

"I will get out of here, X." I said as he chuckled,

"Good luck," I smirked and he stopped smiling, I kneed him in the groin and immediately he let go of me. I kicked him in the back and ran out of the door, into a hall. I looked both left and right all I could see were two narrow choices I could see that I don't know lead anywhere. I heard Red X start to get up so I closed the double doors and found a candle holder on the table next to me and put the holder between the handles so it would hold him off. I ran to my right all I saw were rooms that were either closed or there was nothing in them. I stopped running and looked around there were no windows to get a clue where I was, I could hear Red X breaking down the door, and I couldn't use my powers unless this thing comes off of my wrist. I looked around and saw a room that was elegant, and ran in as I heard Red X come running down the hall, I hid under the queen sized bed, and looked around the blue painted walls, the gorgeous bathroom that was connected to the big room, and all the nice furniture, then I smacked myself. Stupid! I yelled in my head, this was Red X's room, and Where do you think he'll come looking first? I thought sarcastically.

I heard Red X enter his room, and I held my breath, praying that he wouldn't see me, Red X walked around the room as I followed his movement, I was so scared if he couldn't hear my breathing he would hear my heart thumping. After a few minutes he turned and walked out of the room, I sighed as I heard him go down the hallway. I got out from my hiding place, I looked around and behind me was a huge storm window that overlooked the ocean and you had a perfect view of the Titan Tower. Shit, I thought I looked down as there was a fancy gate, almost like this was a private house. Oh my god! Red X is- I cut off in my sentence as I heard breathing behind me. I closed my eyes hoping it wasn't him, but I opened them and turned around, where Red X was standing right there. I smile, "Hi, when did you get here?" I asked innocently as I was pressed to the window where I was forming a plan, as I remembered there were great ways to break my fall if I crash the glass. I didn't need my powers to know he was radiating off anger, as his body was forcibly pushing mine.

"You are coming with me." He said sternly, but I smiled, "Don't even TRY to escape, there's no other way." I smirked bigger,

"Really? Hmmm, I think you lost your touch." With that I took my one leg and smashed it in the window, and at that moment the window shattered as I fell, Red X didn't, thank god, but I knew he was going to. I was falling at least 5 stories, the glass falling freely around me as I smirked. But before I fell I grabbed on a flag pole that was close to me and swung myself out and just before I hit the ground I rolled so I wouldn't break any bones. I looked up to see Red X do the same thing, but I could feel his rage and yet I could tell he was intrigued. I ran and just before I got the gate I was pinned to the wall by Red X's "x" I look up to see him coming closer to me.

"You're good Raven, I'll give you that and you put up a good fight, but I'm better." I could tell he was smirking under that mask.

"Actually, I wanted you to do that," I smirked, and before he had to react I smashed my hand against the stone wall and the bracelet fell into pieces. In a split second I disappeared, so the only thing left was the red 'x' on the wall. Red X looked around, as I felt his anger, disappointment, excitement, and lust? I reappeared behind him, and kicked him in the gut. "Azarath Metrion ZINTHOS!" Anything loose was flying around as Red X tried to dodge them all, a lot were coming close, and I took this opportunity and had his body incased with my aura and slammed him to the ground repeatedly, finally I suspended him upside down in mid air as he was panting. I reached up to the side of his mask, and just before I was going to unmask him he disappeared. I looked around frantically, and he came up behind me and held me there as he slapped an 'x' over my mouth. I glared as let go me; I stumbled back as he came forward. I took a deep breath and slowly the 'x' was dissolving and in a few seconds it was gone.

"What?" I heard Red X gasp, I smirked.

"Like it? My powers are beyond your imagination." He growled, as he charged at me, many of his red 'x's' ready in hand. My hands encased with my aura, I tore his weapons away from him and shot my aura at him, he hit the wall with a thud as he slumped to the floor. I walked over and hauled him up, "How does it feel? To be beaten by only one Titan?" I asked, but I heard him chuckle, a very weak chuckle.

"And, w-why c-couldn't y-you do that to e-every vi-villian?" He asked as he tried to take deep breathes. I looked at him, as my expression soften,

"Because they wouldn't understand, none of them would." I said quietly, but I could tell he heard it. "I'm not going to unmask you or tell anyone who you are, but I am taking you with me. Do NOT think this is a favor." I transported us to the police station and dropped him off. After he was in custody, I transported to the living room of the Titan Tower. I saw Robin typing open the computer fiercely as he was looking on the screen,

"Come on Raven where are you?" He asked quietly to himself, I walked over and placed a hand on his shoulder. "I told you Star I am not going out with you." He responded not looking behind him, I laugh and he stops typing,

"I'm glad," I said, as he turns around and embraces me in a hug,

"Where were you?" Robin asked, I tensed up but I quickly hugged him back,

"I don't know I blacked out the whole time."

"Then how did you esc-" I cut him off, with my finger pressed to his lips.

"Shhh, it's okay." Robin hugged me tighter, as he whispered,

"I'm sorry I wasn't there to protect you."
