I sat there on my bed for a whole two hours trying to decided whether to go out and eat with the other Titans but decided no way. I wasn't in the mood to eat anyway , I didn't wanna see Beast Boy and Flickr all over each other while Raven just sat there and watched. Unrequited love I can relate to at least. A part of me was upset about the whole love triangle thing as both of my friends would wind up getting hurt and in the top was Beast Boy to add insult to injury. But I teensy miniscule part of me felt bad for not supporting Flickr in this relationship thing. I mean yea she's my best friend and everything but I can't help but notice she just kinda bounced in an scooped Beast Boy away. Or maybe I'm being stupid again.
I sighed and got off my bed and left my room. I headed over to Flickr's room to make an apology. Kind of. Somewhat an apology. I knocked but no answer. She was probably still pissed at me. I opened the door but found no one in there. A panic swept over me as I tried to detect any intruders or something but found nothing. I willed myself to stay calm as I walked towards the bed, seeing a note. The note said Flickr went for a walk to clear her mind be back in an hour.
That was two hours ago. Panic rose once again as Ivory clutched the note, her head fogging to see if she could get a clear signal of Flickr. Nothing so far, just silence until, I could hear it. A kind of shuffling noise in a shady part with trees. A flash of black hair, flames, a muffled scream.
I wasted no time. I raced to where the Titans were and waved the note, "It seems we have a problem."
At The Park~
I led them to the park where I felt Flickr's presence. The part of the park where I killed the first villian. I knew Flickr's been here, I could see burnt handprints on a treebark.
" I know she's been here," I say as I step more into the trees.
"Well if she was here she's not anymore," Robin said examining the treebark.
"Well obviously!" I snapped, " Do you see her here!? God why are humans so stupid?" I mumbled.
"But by whom was she taken by and to where is most puzzeling," Starfire spoke.
A thought came to mind, "Ringmaster," I whispered.
"What was that?" Beast Boy asked.
"Nothing, " I hissed at him.
"Wait, guys, I think I found something!" Cyborg called from the gate of the park surronded be trees. I raced over there and in between two trees was a gaping hole of the iron fence. The grass leading to it was dug up as if trying to escape. I smelt Flickr's scent and didn't like what this was all adding up to.
"Let's follow it," I announced crawling into the hole.
"What makes you think we're gonna take orders from you? How do you even think you-" Robin started.
"Because we're not going to leave her to die here!" I raged accidently using my force energy leaving a bigger hole in the fence.
Everyone was quiet as I continued to crawl under the gate but was soon followed by the rest of the Titans. There wasn't anything out of the ordinary except for-BOOM!
The giant robotic claw that got me in the stomach and sent me flying into a tree.
"Titans, GO!" I heard Robin say. The Titans started attcking and as soon as I regained my breath, I joined in too. This thing was smaller compared to the other things I've fought, although I did need asist...
I dodged a few lasers coming out of its arm and put a shield around me. The other Titans gathered around me behind the shield. I looked at them, this wasn't for their safety!
When the lasers stopped, Raven and I used our energy force to propel the robot away. It barely nudged it then pointed a huge cannon at us. We ducked away just in time although my left ankle was caught in the blast. I hit the ground and gritted my teeth, trying not to register any hint of pain on my face.
"Hey, are you okay?" Robin called firing bird-a-rangs at the robot. Oh man, this sounds all too familiar.
"I'm fine!" I shreiked, standing back up although my ankle screamed in protest. With the other Titans battling the robot I focused on it, trying to use my one power I could never get the hang of. I know if I tried hard enough I could use my energy to dismantle the robot completely. I closed my eyes tight and with all I've got tried to get the energy around it, to squeeze the circuts out of comminssion. I almost had it. Almost.
A burning came over my body which turned to burning and pain then to pure agony. I screamed as I dropped to the ground, engulfed in flames. I didn't give two fucks over what was happening with the others I just knew I was dying. The years I spent avoiding death finally caught up to me, I was paying the price with a slow painful, fire-filled death. The burning didn't stop until I screamed myself into unconciousness, hopefully, to never open my eyes ever again.
