I do not own Teen Titans.
Chapter 4
The soft dripping of water turned into a small stream. The hole in the ceiling got bigger, and Raven knew that soon it would completely burst, and she would drown. She didn't know what to do. Everywhere she looked, she just saw her hideous reflection. The bags and dark circles under her eyes, her almost-gray skin, those purple, piercing irises. She shook off the thoughts of her appearance and set her mind to thinking of how to escape this cell.
"Maybe there's something behind these mirrors…" With that thought, Raven lifted her weak hand, clenched it into a fist, and punched the mirror she had been looking at.
The mirror shattered and Raven shielded her face with her other arm.
She moved her arm and looked at her bloody hand. She knew it was a stupid idea in the first place, but she became desperate to get out of here.
Behind the mirror was simply a gray wall. It was better then mirrors, so Raven kicked the others. Her hand stung, and blood still dripped in the foot-deep water, creating a red cloud. The pieces of glass stayed at the bottom of this small pool, glistening against the small waves.
A small cracking noise interrupted Ravens wandering mind. She looked up, and saw that the ceiling hole was getting larger. Pieces of the ceiling began falling down around her.
She slunk to the ground, feeling defeated. The water flow was getting heavier, her powers were hopeless, and there was nothing she could do about it.

Starfire dared herself to open her eyes. Maybe the long-moving picture had come to an end?
It hadn't. When she lifted her eyelids, she saw that she was in a Tamaranian forest. It didn't look like it, but it was.
The red cloud was still hanging over everything, the plants withering away. Things were just simply dissolving into dust, and crumbling helplessly to the ground.
The movie zoomed out and out, until the planet was about the size of a grape.
Then it exploded, chunks of it flying off into nothingness, the smog still surrounding the remains of the doomed world.
Starfire began to cry again.
"What is happening to me?!" Her breath was getting shorter, her mind racing with thoughts of her friends and her home.
"I want to get out of this horrible place!" She cried.
Her sobs were echoing throughout the white room. Her hands were clenched so tightly, her nails dug to far into her fair skin and began drawing blood.
"I must get out of here!"
She tried once again to take the goggles off, but they didn't budge. She ran around with her arms outstretched, trying to find a wall were she could go through a door to escape. Her eyes were still shut in fear of what she might see next.
No matter how far she ran, she couldn't seem to find any solid object except the ground.
"This is not right!!"
With all of Starfire's strength left, she jumped and pounded her fists to the ground as hard as she could.
The sound was loud, and the pain was agonizing, but the floor remained unscratched as Starfire felt around for any sign of damage she did.
With a shaky, unstable voice, she asked herself, "Am I left here to die?"
*****
Cyborg was getting tired very easily. He had been running for about 10 minutes straight now. Sweat dripped down his face, and minute by minute, fear turned into terror.
"Man, I don't want to die yet!" He pushed himself harder, trying to grab the pole, but still, he didn't have enough power.
His battery was running low now. If somebody didn't let him out, or he didn't find a way out, he would surely be pierced to death by the nails.
Cyborg wondered how the others were doing. What if they were at the tower, ignoring that he wasn't there? What if they were looking for him? What if they were in the same obstacle?
Cyborg couldn't even remember how he got here in the first place. Some villain must be behind this all. Cyborg couldn't figure out who it could be. Slade was defeated, as well as Brushogun. Cinderblock wasn't capable of making this…neither was Mumbo…maybe it was a trick! An illusion!
"Maybe all I have to do is stop running…and then this whole thing will end...but what if I'm wrong…what if I die?"
Cyborg finally came to a conclusion, and let the moving floor take him to where it wanted him to go.
Ohhh another cliffhanger! I hope you guys are liking it! I'll try to review as soon as possible. Please review!
