Where we left off:
"I'll see you soon my apprentice," With that I fell into unconsciousness and prayed I wouldn't wake up.
I groaned as I put my hand to my forehead, but my hand was restricted as I heard a chattering of steel. I peel my eyes open to see a blinding light overhead, I quickly looked around as memories came flooding back in. I try to sit up, but I was yanked back by chains, I look down to see shackles around my arms and feet, my body was spread out across a steel table. This is NOT good. I strain my head to the sides trying to figure out where I am, but all see are gray walls and a steel door ahead of me. I gritted my teeth and tried to yank off the chains, but no use. And of course once I am done struggling Slade comes in, Of course that always happens, you are kidnapped and then once you wake up or you struggle your kidnapper comes at the right time. I hear the door swish close and I hear a click; at that moment the table that I was on moved up until I was being supported by the chains, hanging like a rag doll.
"Your finally awake apprentice," Slade said coolly as he strode over to me, his arms behind his back.
"I am NOT your god damn apprentice Slade, and let me go." I replied my voice cold as stone, but inside I was freaking out literally.
"Ah ah, did you forget our bet? You are a hero and so you can't go back on your word." Slade replied as he stared at me, I rolled my eyes.
"Yeah, but I do remember that you said I had a dark side so technically I am not entitled to that rule." I replied, desperately trying to find an escape route. I just have to stall him longer so I can get my powers ready.
"Raven, don't try to wiggle out of this you are trapped and if you don't help me. Well, then your friends will be no more." Slade laughed as my eyes grew wide but I tried to mask my terror. Shit Raven what have you gotten yourself into?
"What do you mean?" I ask, as his eye glinted in the light.
"What I mean Raven is that when I captured your friends I implanted a chip inside each one's brain. That chip is undetected with the normal scans, but the chip will kill them when I press this button," He holds up a small remote and I tried to get out of the shackles, but it was in vain.
"What do you want with me other than being your damn apprentice?" I ask, he laughs and comes over to me.
"Other than that I want you, Raven. I want you," I gasped as he grabbed my chin and he pressed me into the table.
"Get the fuck away from me Slade." I spat back, and he laughs.
"I guess the year without me has changed you, hasn't it?" He laughs as I narrow my eyes.
"Shut up Slade," I yell as I tried to move from his crushing body but it was no use. "What do you want me to do then? Hmmm? What makes you think I won't just run away and tell my friends?" I ask, he laughs.
"Because if you do I will kill them, and if you even so much have any contact with them I will kill them. So you have no choice,"
"You have no idea what I am capable of Slade. Don't you DARE underestimate me." I stared at him as he pressed me in harder.
"Trust me I don't underestimate you, why do you think I have you as an apprentice?" Slade asked as his eye narrowed. Perfect.
"Nope Slade you underestimated me," I saw him narrow his eye further, "Azarath Metrion Zinthos!" At that moment instead of my black aura a painful electrical shock ripped through my body. Just before I screamed I bit my lip and muffled my scream as I drew blood in my mouth. There's no way I am showing weakness in front of him. Come on Raven just deal with it.
"Now let me tell you something Raven," He gripped my arms and squeezed, "Do NOT ever underestimate ME! I will do anything to keep you from your so called 'friends.'" He let go, and I see him press a button on his arm and at that moment the shackles release me. I pant as I fell to the floor trying to heal by bruises from the shock. I see Slade's boot in front of my face, I strain to see him kneel down to my level and he grabs me and throws me over his shoulder. I try to kick and struggle but I was too tired, the shock didn't come from the shackles it came from him.
I saw him carry me down a long steel corridor and I hear a swish as he enters a room, the room was pitch dark. I felt him drop me on a bed as my head thumps and I hear him leave, but before he did I remember him saying,
"Tomorrow we begin, and you will find your new uniform in the closet." With that I fall asleep and black out.
I awoke the next morning with Slade barging through my room and yelling me to get up, I groan as he closed the door. I walked up to the closet that was next to the bed and opened up to see a row of uniforms. I rub my eyes to see them clearly and I stood dumbstruck. I am NOT wearing that piece of scrap. I thought, but then I remembered if I didn't do what he says my friends would die, I sigh and pull on the uniform and I look at myself in the mirror.
My hair was straightened, and I still had my curves but developed more in my chest and the suit wasn't helping my situation. The uniform is clad in black leather; black v-neck long sleeved shirt, long black pants with black boots. A black belt around my waist with Slade's insignia, and gloves (It's the same costume of the Black Widow just a different belt.) I sigh and walk out into the hallway to see robots standing my door; the escort me to Slade's main room with computer screens with each Titan on one, and off to the side a training room. I see Slade on the computer rapidly tapping the keys on the keyboard; I coughed as I saw him stop immediately and turn around.
"Raven,"
"Slade," I spat, for a few minutes of silence I spoke up, "And before you say anything, I know you can send that shock through my body on your suit."
"Correct, but that's not what I was about to say though," I looked puzzled at him,
"What then?" I ask,
"You are going to steal zinothium from Dr. Chang tonight." I let out a short laugh,
"What makes you think I will do it?" Then he shook his head and held up the remote, I watched him throw it up and down just toying around with me. "I get it, besides why don't YOU get it?" I asked he turned around and started to type on his computers.
"Because I want to see you embrace you dark side and to see you beat your friends." I did double take at that,
"What?"
"Yes, you are going to fight your friends and if you don't you'll see them die before your own eyes." His back was still to me, and I let out a defeated sigh.
"Fine, but why do YOU need zinothium?" I asked,
"Because Red X needs more and he will be your new partner you can say."
"What the fuck?" I asked, and in a split second he was in front if me.
"Do not use profanity Raven, its so 'un lady' like."
"Shut up, Slade you are NOT the boss of me. Not now or EVER!" I yelled at him, and after that he grabbed my neck and hoisted me in the air.
"Do NOT talk back to me Raven!" Slade yelled, but I gritted my teeth and kicked him in the chest making him fall back as he let go of me. I caught myself before I fell and saw Slade only a few yards away from me. He stood up as I did, we circled each other waiting for the other to launch. I saw him shift his weight and jumped at me, I dodged and kicked him in the ribs, I try summoning my powers but they didn't work. I gasped and I saw Slade come at me, and before I had time to react he pinned me to the ground.
"Don't try using your powers, your uniform let's me allow you to use your powers." I stare at him in confusion, "Meaning, I don't have control over your powers, but I can block them from you." I snarled, and tried to kick him off, but nothing worked.
"So, ill just take off my uniform," he laughs and he stands up I do the same,
"The only way you can take that uniform off is if I allow it," He pulls out another control and toys with it. He puts the control back in his suit, and pulls out an ear piece. "Put this in your ear so I can talk to you when you are infiltrating the lab." I grab the ear piece, and hook it in my ear. "Come here," I come over to Slade and by him was a table that had a bright light above it, and looks at me. He presses a button under the tables, and I see the table flip over and there were different kinds of weapons laying upon the table. "Give me your belt," I unhook my belt and it over to him, he lays the belt across the table. He looks at me and I come next to me as he goes over the different weapons. "This is an expandable metal staff, I am sure you have seen Robin use it," I nod as I saw him out it into my belt, "Grappling hook, smoke bombs, spikes, chucks, shurican stars, nunchaku, and my version of the bird o rang." He puts each weapon in different pockets, I look as I see the table start to change and in a few seconds holsters and guns came out. "The holsters are for you to hide weapons; use this for your thigh, arm, and under your suit by your hands." I put them on me and he showed me the weapons. "Kunai, Knives, Kubaton, Daggers to go under your suit by your hands and put some in your boots, and the Zeliska 600 Nitro Express Revolver." I hook the weapons on me and everything turned pitch black. "Go Raven, and do not fail me because if you do your friends will pay dearly for that."
I walk out and start to run, and immdiatley I feel my powers come back and I transported to Dr. Chang's lab. In a split second my powers were gone and I was going to commit a crime and everything that I have worked for will now mean nothing.
So how do you like it? PLEASE PLEASE Review!!!!! Don't worry Red X is coming into the picture.

P.S. here is a scene from next chapter:
"Why Raven?" I could feel his sadness and I tried holding back tears.
"I am so sorry, you have no idea how much I want to break free from him and come back." I lowered my gun, and I saw Robin approach me.
"Do it Raven, or he will die." Slade's voice threatened, Robin came up to me and hugged me. I tried to break free as tears cascaded down my bloody cheeks.
"Raven, don't do this,"
"I have to," and with that I plunged…………………
So hope you like it haha
