Slowly her senses came back to her one by one. She wasn't sure she was that happy about it though; whe felt a coldness creep in on her back then spread to the rest of her body. Her vision was still blurred, and she didn't know where she was and why. She didn't even know if she was laying down or standing up against a freezing surface. What did she do before she woke up? The only things she managed to remember was a fight against someone with a few other people who she didn't recognise, who were they? Why were they helping her in a fight if she didn't know them? Why was she fighting anyway? She shut her eyes again, desperately trying to memorise what happened to her. Wait - did she even remember who she was? What was her name? Panick filled her as she did not know the answer to a question as simple as that. Something was really wrong, that was the one thing she was certain about. Once she opened her eyes again she glanced down to look at herself. Her sight was improving by the minute, and when she focused on something it was completely clear. First she studied her hands, they were very pale and she wondered whether they were always like this, or perhaps she was dehydrated? Another thing she noticed about them was that they were pinned to a wall, or the ground, by some metal objects she did not know the name of. Her feet and top of her legs shared the same fate, and she realised she was probably standing up and was against a wall. Where in the world was she?

She was about to look at her surroundings when she heard a few loud bangs which sounded like metal on metal, and when she looked up she saw two men come and stand in front of her, viewing her. They both seemed weirdly familiar to her, and at first she wondered if they were friendly, when a feeling of hatred, rage and pain filled her as she watched them, though she didn't know why. She realised she had not felt any emotions other than utter confusion since she awoke. After a few minutes of silent staring at one another, one of them finally moved and turned to the other.

"We need to give her more, she's still not remembering anything and we don't have the time to wait another few hours."

"Is it safe to give her that much?"

"It has to be, or she's out of luck. I don't think we gave them enough, I mean the other one hasn't even woken up, she'll need more as well."

She glanced to the side and saw another figure she hadn't noticed before. The other girl seemed to be sleeping, or maybe even dead, since she didn't see her move. She felt something cold grab her by the arm, followed by a sharp stabbing pain. For some reason she didn't look down to see what was happening, and only looked when it ended and the person that had grabbed her was walking away. The culprit of her pain seemed to be a small container with small black writing all over it, and some sort of thin stick coming out from the bottom of it. She saw the man fill the same container up again with a pale green liquid, and then approach the other girl, hold her arm still, and, to her surprise, put the stick in her arm and the liquid disappeared into her. How did that happen she could not understand. Soon her heart started to thud against her ribs really quickly, her palms began to sweat, and eyes rolled back into her head. The last thing she heard was some shouts and cries the men gave, but she didn't even make out what they were saying.

When she woke up for the second time, she did not take long to earn all of her senses back. Neither did she feel as confused as she did before. She began looking around the room. It was quite big, and dark, and cold, and mostly made out of metal as she had observed before. On the opposite side of the room there was a lot of grey shelves that covered that entire wall, and on them stood many different objects, mostly bottles with different coloured liquids in them, some of them bubbling. In the center of the room there was a massive metal table with plain white sheets over it and all sorts of machines and equipment around it. Was this an odd sort of hospital? Because it sure looked like it in her opinion. Then the two men from earlier returned and smiled at her.

"Good, you're awake, I told you more wouldn't hurt her."

"Well I did sort of faint," she tried to snap, but her voice was all croaky and it scratched her throat as she spoke.

"You should be thankful to us."

"Thankful for what? Knocking me out? Kidnapping me? Making me forget everything?"

"For sparing you."

"We could've killed you, and we could still kill you now, but you are still alive," the other man was now talking.

"And why didn't you kill me exactly?"

"We'll explain when the other one can apprehend what's going on," the first one said, rolling his eyes. She had completely forgotten about the other girl and as she looked at her, she realised that she was looking up at the ceiling as if in a daze.

"S-S-Starfire!" She yelled, remembering her name. Actually, she had remembered everything now, the fight, how all the boys got knocked out, how she and Starfire chased them to an abandoned toy factory and how they caught her and injected her with something that made her go to sleep and forget everything. As she looked at the two villains, she recognised them as Arion - but since when was there two? Raven cast her mind back as far as she could, but not once could she recall another one. She wanted to ask what the hell was going on, but she knew that she would find out later, so she kept her mouth shut.

It took Starfire almost two hours to get to herself and Raven was slowly nodding off when she heard the red haired girl call her name.

"Friend Raven? What is the happening?" She asked urgently, but before she could even finish the last word Arion One and Arion Two walked in.

"Finally."

"It took her long enough!"

"You're the one who refused to give her another shot."

"I didn't want her dead did I? We gave her the double one already and who knows what would've happened if she got a third one."

"Whatever," the first Arion said, then faced the two again. "We didn't get a proper chance to introduce ourselves and welcome you in. You are already well acquainted with my brother, Arion, correct? My name is Castor."

"Excuse me, but one of your names should be Pollux, should it not?" Starfire questioned innocently, making the two brothers look at each other.

"Well done, he was not always called Arion, he was previously known as Pollux, but how did you know that?" Starfire shrugged.

"I know a lot about the space, Castor and Pollux are twin stars."

"Wait, if your name used to be Pollux, why are you called Arion now?" Raven asked.

"Because you bunch seem to have some smart ones such as yourself, sweetie, and you might of worked out there was two of us," Arion explained.

"Any other questions you want to bring up about our names before we move on?" No one answered which indicated a no.

"You probably have realised by now that you are the only two Titans we have brought here, any similarities you see between you two?" Starfire went to lift her hand up, but realised it had been secured to the wall. "Yes? Please remind me of your name?"

"Starfire," she said as Raven rolled her eyes. Why would she give everything away so easily? "We are both girls."

"Well done hun, I dibs this one, Castor," Arion praised.

"What? No, I wanted that one, you can have the other," Castor moaned.

"That's too bad for you then isn't it, I just dibsed her, but I think you would suit that one more anyway, she seems more serious, like you."

"That's true, but shouldn't we get the opposite one to us so that our offspring's personality would be more or less evened out?" Raven felt sick when the word 'offpring' came up, and she turned to the colour that liquid, whatever it was, that made her remember everything again was.

"Offspring? As in children?" Raven said.

"Yes, dear, we are going to have to impregnate you in order to create a new generation."

"See, you two are hitting it off already, but we can discuss that later, should we explain our plan to them?"

"They're an important part in them, so why not."

"We come from another planet far away that resembles Earth in many ways, but is very different at the same time. One of the biggest thing that makes them differ is that there is very few people inhabiting it, in fact no one as of now. We had a major incident which took away lives of almost everyone and made the planet unsuitable to live on, but the survivors, including us, are determined to not let our population die out. So we came to Earth, since it is most similar, to take over it, and live here instead. One of the many problems we face is that we needed to reproduce to keep everything going on, and we wanted to introduce some new lines into our family tree to prevent incest. But we couldn't just use ordinary human beings, we needed special women with powers that might give our children new abilities. That's where you come in," Castor explained, smiling at them at the last part. "You will bear our children, and in return we will not kill you."

"Wow, such a great reward," Raven said sarcastically.

"But could you not just wait for your planet to become safe again?" Starfire asked, trying hard to take this new information all in.

"It would be lovely if it was that simple, sweet, but that would take many years, we would not be alive by then," Arion said with a sigh,

"Surely there must be some other way than attacking Earth," Raven argued.

"There is, attacking a different planet," said Castor, "but that would lead to other complications as they might not meet our living requirements as well as Earth does. Either way, a planet has to be claimed."

"Is there anything we could do to stop this?" Star asked.

"I'm afraid not, sorry sugar," Arion replied. He seemed to never run out of pet names to call them.

"There must be something," Raven said.

"Anything, we shall do it."

"I promise I'd do anything, and I am good at keeping my promises."

"Girls, please, it breaks my heart to see you like this but there is honestly nothing that could save your world right now. As we said though, you two will be kept alive," Arion attempted to reassure them.

"And watch everyone else suffer and die? I'd rather be dead, thank you very much," Raven growled which provoked a reaction from Castor.

"That could be arranged."

"Calm down, Cas." That just put him in an even bigger rage.

"Pollux! I mean Arion! How many times did I tell you to refrain from calling me Cas?"

"Many, but I never once agreed to it."

"In a minute I'll make you agree to it!"

"I'd like to see you try." Castor gritted his teeth as he struggled to keep himself back from murdering his twin brother.

"Sorry about that, my brother can be a bit of a nuisance sometimes," he spat that word 'nuisance'.

"Look who's talking."

"Take that back."

"Nope." Throughout the whole time they've been there, neither of the girls doubted one thing; they were definitely brothers.

"Psst, Raven, they kind of remind me of you and Beast Boy," Star tried to whisper but it had failed.

"Starfire, shut up about the others for now," Raven hissed. Now they had the attention of both of them.

"So, who's this 'Beast Boy'. Do you know him, brother?" Castor asked, turning to Arion. Of course this was all an act and both knew who he was, but they wanted to see the girls' reactions.

"Oh yes I think I remember him now, green hair, green skin? Green all over? Changes into animals?"

"Sounds... very interesting, I bet he is one of the best ones possessing such abilities."

"Not really, brother, I think he is the weakest one in the team."

"Is that so?"

"Yes, it is so easy to beat him I wonder how he is still a part of the Titans," he said and they both burst out with laughter.

"Beast Boy is not weak!" Raven suddenly yelled, not able to keep it in any longer. The twins seemed to have got what they wanted, and they moved closer to the girl.

"You really think so?" Arion asked in almost a hissing tone, and Raven gulped and nodded.

"Do you really believe in what you just said, or... are you protecting someone you care about deeply?" Castor took his turn.

"No!" Raven shouted a little too loudly. "No, I do not feel anything for Beast Boy."

"Are you sure about that?" The way Arion pronounced the letter 's' on the word 'sure' frightened her, and once again she nodded.

"Please stop lying, it's not a very honorable thing to do."

"But I really do not-"

"Silence! I think if you're going to be like that you'll need a bit of time alone..."

"No!" Both Raven and Starfire screamed as they said that.

"It's a bit late for that, Arion get the potions." He did as he was told, and no matter how much the girls screamed and struggled, eventually both had the liquid in them and fell asleep quickly.
