Hey everyone
Hey everyone! I've been SO wrapped up in TAOMG that I forgot about this and Find Father! EEP!
Disclaimer: I own nothing
"Cyborg, have you tracked her down yet?" Robin asked for the 27th time that day. Cyborg rolled his eyes.
"How many times must I tell you? No, I haven't found her! Just wait until the DNA scan is complete. The mother usually comes up within the first 12 hours, because children have 50 of their mother's DNA in them. Her father should be up in 24 hours. However, we do have one problem..." Cyborg said trailed off.
"What?" Robin asked.
"Well, you see, she is very good at covering up her tracks, like Slade, almost. She's gotten into the Tower on numerous occasions; she could be covered in fake DNA that can't get past our systems. The DNA may not be correct. Who knows, this could also be your hair, you do have the same hair color, you know. Or, on the other hand, she could be a robot!"
"I have come in contact with her during on of our many battles. She certainly does not seem like a robot, and, she is certainly not a hologram," Starfire offered, hoping to light up the situation a bit.
Robin grimaced at the memory of Red X. He couldn't believe that he had made such a stupid mistake. He also couldn't believe that Slade was right, he did feel a great rush of adrenaline when he stole. He remembered NF, and the whole thing about her adrenaline. Obviously, she wasn't X; he hadn't heard the word 'kid' come out of her mouth yet. Suddenly, the alarm blared. Quickly and efficently, the Titans ran out towards their vehicle or flight pattern of choice and shot out of the building.
At Slade's lair...
"Well, well, well, Nightfire. What a pleasure it is to have you joining us today," Slade said, walking into the room. Nightfire turned to meet his gaze.
"What do you want from me?!" She yelled. Slade held his hands up.
"Getting to the point, are we? You really are just like your father," He said coolly.
"You don't know who my father is!" Nightfire hissed. Slade laughed.
"Do I, Nightfire? Or, should I say, Ms. Grayson?" he asked. She froze.
"How-how did you-I mean-know that...?" She said, losing her words. He was smarter now than she had expected.
"It really wasn't hard to figure out. You have the same willpower, and you both want me dead," he said. He paused before saying, "You know, I can help you."
"Help me? Help me with what?" She asked. He smirked.
"I can help you master your powers, I can make you powerful. Your parents do not realize what you truly can accomplish. I've seen you during battle; you are very skilled, yet reckless. I am amazed you made it this far with wimps for parents. They betrayed you; I know that much about you. Come with me, I will be your teacher," he said. She avoided his gaze. It didn't seem right, but it didn't seem too wrong now, anyway. She was at loss. On one hand, she could master the powers that she knew could destroy someone if used incorrectly, but on the other hand, her parents meant so much to her, even if she meant nothing to them. She had no idea what to do.
And then, the Titans came. She was a villain, but they were still here, fighting her captor.
"Titans, go!" Robin shouted. The Titans raced in, fighting Slade immediately. She watched them in admiration. These were not the people she grew up with. They could still be helped. Maybe, just maybe, she could sneak out and help them silently, dropping them hints along the way.
They were a little preoccupied with Slade, anyway.
Just as she was about to sneak out the back way, she remembered the energy ropes. All she had to do was grab the controller and switch it off. It was nearby, so it wouldn't be too hard.
After much anticipation, she finally got the controller. Unfortunately, that was also when Slade escaped and the Titans' attention was devoted to her.
"You're working with him?" Robin asked. Maybe that was it! She seemed like Slade, maybe she was a relative of his...? Either way, he was sure that this is what his mind was trying to tell him.
"Well, I-" NF tried, and failed.
"What is that controller for?" BB questioned. It looked suspiciously like the one that Slade had used when they had probes floating around in them.
"I-it-but-Oh! Forget it! I give up!" she said, holding her hands up in defeat. If they let her go, then she could go on with her plans. In the future, the Titans wouldn't pay much attention to her, so she was actually surprised when she found herself in a police car on her way to jail.
'This is going to be harder than I thought...'
I know, it isn't much of an update, but, review!
PLEASE!
