Chapter 12: Deep Six

Deep beneath the Tower, the T-Ship Cyborg had just made was underway on a serious mission. They sped through the water in the orange ship, passing by fish everywhere.

"Alright Titans, we have to find out what this Trident guy is planning. Let's keep to the plan of Beast Boy as our secret weapon and finish him," Robin told them through his microphone earpiece. Everybody responded in agreement in their section of the ship as they continued.

"Wow… it's really pretty down here," Raven whispered as a school of angelfish passed by her window. Robin smiled at her un–Raven like comment that had accidentally been heard by the whole team.

"If you think that's cool…" Beast Boy charged in, making Raven sigh. "Wait till you see me out there… I'm going shark first!" he declared, just as he heard his own voice only. His eyebrows knotted up in confusion.

"Hey! What gives, is this thing on?!" he cried. uddenly Cyborg pressed the mute button again, grinning.

"Goodness me. Looks like I accidentally turned Beast Boy's microphone off," Cyborg said with a grin on his face. Starfire giggled.

"Could you go ahead and accidentally leave it off?" Raven asked Cyborg, making him and Robin laugh shortly.

"Alright Beast Boy," Robin said as soon as they were getting sonar contact. "You ready?"

"I was born ready, dudes. Try not to be jealous," he called as he unbuckled and slipped into the water, turning into a whale and going beside Raven's window. He winked at her.

"He just put on 300 thousand pounds. I am so jealous," Raven told everyone sarcastically, making them all laugh once more.

Beast Boy continued to swim beside the T–Ship as they dived deeper into the depths till they reached the sea floor, finding the missing ship that Trident had attacked.

"There's our ship," Robin announced. "But… where's the cargo?"

"If this guy is bad enough to sink a whole ship, I think those barrels could be anywhere right now," Raven said.

The T–Ships lights followed Beast Boy as he went through the ship, investigating. They didn't notice that an unknown figure was hiding behind a rock wall, watching them, curious to what was going on and following.

Suddenly Beast Boy looked to the side and saw someone. The man quickly swam away, making Beast Boy chase after him.

"Looks like Beast Boy's found a lead on Trident," their leader told them all as they followed behind, ready. Without warning though there was a blast from behind them and the four jolted forward in surprise and shock. Cyborg glanced behind him, being in the back of the T-Ship, and saw Trident with his trident.

"Looks like Trident's found us!" Cyborg informed them. Starfire seemed puzzled.

"But how is he able to attain both forms, one with Beast Boy and one here with us, making him in two places at once? Truly this is not possible?" she asked. Raven shook her head.

"He's the lord of the sea supposedly. I wouldn't be surprised with tricks he's got in store," Raven told them as they tried to keep the ship steady, continually being pursued and enduring blast after blast.

"Cyborg, bring us about!" Robin started declaring orders. "Raven, get ready to fire!" Just as he said this though, they lost sight of him. They wait for a moment, when finally he blasted Starfire's side of the ship.

"He is over here!" she called as Trident came up by Raven's side and hit her window.

"No, that way!" she informed them. The Titans couldn't keep up with his fast pace and were doomed to swim deeper through many valley-like narrow areas. Robin noticed the odds looked bad.

"The engines are fried, we're going down!" Robin shouted to the team as Trident shot them one last time before they started losing control of the ship. They happened to zoom past the same person that had been hiding from them and he watched before quickly following them, Trident smirking with satisfaction before disappearing. Beast Boy soon returned to the group after attempting to pursue his own lead and followed the mysterious person and the out of control T–Ship.

Just then, Beast Boy got zapped in the back by Trident, his eyes looking between his teammates and the villain. He shook his fish head back and forth a few times before morphing into a shark and swimming after their main threat, leaving whoever was chasing after them to help them himself. Beast Boy was sure the team would be happier he was trying to stop the villain.

The T–Ship in the meantime had begun crashing into walls, water leaking in on all of sides. Starfire shrieked, Cyborg closed his eyes, Raven gasped, and Robin held his breath. Water was filling up and windows began cracking. Finally, they hit one more rock wall and the ship windows totally caved in and the Titans were thrown out of their ship into the wide open water. Cyborg, Star and Robin held onto their breaths best they could, but Robin noticed Raven had separated from them and was gasping, before closing her eyes and sinking further. His eyes turned wide beneath his mask.

"Raven!" he tried calling before gasping for breath, too, attempting to swim in her direction. Just then he saw a figure swim beneath Raven quickly and pick her up in his arms gracefully, swimming considerably fast as he kicked with his legs and made his way back up towards shore. Starfire and Cyborg grabbed the Boy Wonder up after Raven and the mystery person, Robin watching as they brought him up to see Beast Boy in squid form, pulling up the wrecked T–Ship. Before he could get to the top to see if Raven was okay though and who her savior was, everything went black.

Raven awoke to see a brilliant pair of pitch black eyes as dark as night and long jet-black hair to match. He smiled down at her when he saw she was awake and let her out of his grasp, leaning her against the wall, looking at her as her eyes tried to focus.

"Robin…?"

Raven's eyes finally began to focus and she took his features in. This was indeed not Robin. He was good looking, with a sweet face of a boy still, but maturity signs of a man. His long wet hair gleamed through the open sea light holes of the underwater cave and his white teeth were brilliant. He had on a black and blue spandex suit and flat, black boots. He had matching gloves on and finally spoke, breaking her out of her trance of observing at him.

"Are you alright?" he asked her. he weakly nodded and coughed up some more seawater while he looked at her with concerned eyes. "Your friends managed a lot better…"

'Friends…' Raven's head turned to the side at this thought and she finally heard the voices that were coming from her left. Cyborg was griping about how he hadn't been able to use his turbo blasters yet on the now totaled ship. Beast Boy was getting water out of his ears it seemed, and Starfire was sittong on the edge of the ground, her bare legs dangling into the water, boots discarded to the side. Lastly, her eyes fell upon Robin who seemed to be looking in their direction. His eyes widened when they met her gaze and he smiled.

"Raven, you're ok!" he called and started running towards her and the boy in front of her. She smiled up at him slightly before turning to the boy in front of her.

"Who are you?" she whispered. He smiled at her and held his hand out.

"Aqualad," he said. "And yours?"

"Raven."

"Raven. Beautiful name," he told her as he took her hand in his and shook it lightly. She blushed before reclaiming her hand back and glancing away from his face momentarily. Robin slowed down before reaching them and watched them with urgency in his eyes.

"So, you're the one that saved me then?" Raven continued. He nodded.

"I saw your ship crash and you fell out, before starting to drown. The rest of your team seemed fine, but I knew I couldn't let you struggle or wait," he said factually, smiling at her again.

"Well… thank you," she told him shyly. Robin finally stood next to the two sitting teens, not believing how this boy was seemingly wooing Raven. Was he? He had helped out, he'd saved her life. That was perfectly acceptable. But Robin didn't like the he looked at her, but even worse was the way she looked back at him. He felt a slight pang in his chest and wondered why.

"Glad to hear you're alright Raven," Robin butted into the conversation, holding his hand out to her. She acknowledged his presence once more and sighed, taking his hand lightly as she was pulled to stand, Aqualad follwing.

"Yeah, glad to see the whole team is alright as well," she told him. All three of them walked to the rest of the group.

"Sorry I didn't introduce myself earlier to you guys, but I'm Aqualad. We Atlantians like to keep a low profile," he explained, shaking Cyborg's, Beast Boy's and then Starfire's hand. Starfire grinned up at him and he smiled back briefly before turning to Raven who addressed him.

"You're from Atlantis?" she asked, surprise in her tone. He was from the mythical land she had only read about in books?

"Yes, and so is Trident," Aqualad said as he explained. "He thinks he's perfect in every way, causing destruction everywhere around Atlantis, so he thinks he can do whatever he wants."

"Well, any idea what he wants with all that toxic waste?" Robin asked him, taking back his role as leader once more.

"Whatever it is, it'll be bad for both our worlds. He's already gained some kind of new power. It seems like he can be at different places at the same time," Aqualad went on.

"Kind of noticed that," Beast Boy said sarcastically, arms crossing over his chest.

"As long as we're after the same guy, maybe we can help each other," Aqualad offered, addressing Robin. He stole a quick glance at Raven who was looking at him from the corner of her eye. Robin noticed this exchange and glowered inside, sure to keep his usual leader façade.

"Um, no I think we're good. We can handle everything just fine," Robin said. Raven looked at him with a raised eyebrow, sensing his complete distaste for Aqualad. She sighed before quickly grabbing him and walking away. She flashed a we'll-be-back-in-just-a-minute glance at Aquala, the rest of the Titans following and forming a circle.

"We're at the bottom of the ocean," Beast Boy told them.

"Our sub is totaled," Cyborg put in.

"And we cannot breath water," Starfire finished. Robin sighed as Raven walked back over to the fish boy.

"We'll take all the help we can get," she told him. He nodded, smiling lightly at her, making Robin's chest throb once more as they all began to plan.

Darkgirlravengrayson…darkgirlravengrayson…darkgirlravengrayson…

"So, everybody get the plan?" Robin asked his team and Aqualad. Everyone nodded.

"Tram is going to be helping me here while we try to fix up the ship," Cyborg said.

"I'm going to be tracking down Trident with Beast Boy," Aqualad said. Robin smiled, glad he'd be away from Raven.

"And friend Raven, Robin and I shall stay here if either friend Beast Boy or new friend Aqualad needs assistance from land," Starfire finished.

"Alright then guys, lets go," Robin told everyone as Beast Boy and Aqualad jumped into the water, off to stop Trident from whatever evil plans he had. Raven watched the water ripple after Aqualad had dived in, lowering her hood. Robin walked over to her quickly and grabbed her wrist, making her look up.

"Come on, let's try to help out best we can and just pass the time," he told her as he gave her a smile. he smiled back as the two birds walked over to where Starfire stood sat.

After swimming for a while, Beast Boy and Aqualad had come across Trident and battled him before he managed to escape from their grasps. They were arguing with each other as they made their way, treading steadily through the blue water.

'What were you doing back there? Seriously, I've seen dolphins fight better then you back there,' Aqualad insulted BB telepathically, making him stop swimming and glare at him in the mouth of the cave.

'Me? What about you!? You're a little glory fish!' Beast Boy shouted back telepathically. Aqualad sighed before seeing Trident slip into on way of the cave. Beast Boy looked and saw him going in the other direction. Both pointed in the way that they saw him go.

"Um excuse me, he went this way, and if you don't like that, then I guess you'll just have to stay behind while I do all the work," Beast Boy cut in before Aqualad could even say anything. He quickly dashed off in his own direction, leaving the fish boy there. He practically started seething.

"Fine, you do what you want! But when I find Trident and you come out empty handed you'll look like the fool!" Aqualad called after the green squid before quickly swimming off in his own direction.

Raven sat cross-legged on the ground, trying to stay calm as she sat in the light underwater cave. It was hard to with the situation of not knowing the whereabouts of her fellow teammate and rescuer. Robin sat besides her, his legs laid out in front of him as he laid back on his elbows. He was glancing at Raven every now and then or watching Tram and Cyborg fix the T–Ship together. It was actually going pretty well, but it still would be a while till they could use it.

Raven suddenly jolted up and gasped, looking towards the water beside the T–Ship. Robin looked at her with concern, as did Starfire.

"Aqualad, Beast Boy!" she cried out loud. Robin looked at her, wondering what was going on. She turned to him when he got up beside her and put a hand on her shoulder. "They're in trouble, I can feel it." She shrugged out from his grasp and made her way to the water.

"Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa," Robin called after her, knowing what she was about to attempt and ran after her. Before she could even touch the water he grabbed her around the waist and hoisted her up, placing her on the ground once more. She began to push him away but he held onto her tightly.

"Raven, what's wrong?" he asked her. She took a couple of breaths before talking.

"Robin, I have a bad feeling that Aqualad and Beast Boy are in real trouble..." she told him. He eyed her a moment before pulling her into a hug. There was nothing that any of them could do at the moment.

"They'll be ok Raven," he told her as she quieted down completely, "I promise."

Aqualad dodged yet another hit from Trident and missed a geyser that flew up. He swam around before attacking him again. Trident dodged before Aqualad threw his leg at him and connected, sending him back. They wrestled a bit more before finally he was pinning down Aqualad. He struggled against the strong blade and finally pushed him back into a geyser. He looked around, satisfied before jumping out of the water to another location of an underwater cave. He looked over and saw Beast Boy there as well.

"Where were you back there!" both of them yelled at the other. "Fighting Trident!" Blood vessels were pounding on their foreheads. Before the other could say anything else the T–Ship emerged from underwater and came ashore beside the two teens. Raven jumped out, followed by Starfire, Cyborg, and Robin.

"You both are just fine, we are so glad to see it so!" Starfire said happily as she approached them. Raven was floating beside her as well, eyeing Aqualad quietly but with a small smile. Aqualad smiled when he saw her.

"Yeah, we just lost Trident, though," he told everyone once they were all in a circle.

"Actually… I don't think you did," Robin said as he pointed up and everybody looked. They gasped once they saw all the pods with Trident inside.

"So that is how he has been able to be in more then one place at a time," Starfire concluded, everyone else nodding.

"We have to make sure that those pods don't hatch," Raven said with worry as she looked around in search for some way to shut this down. Everybody glanced around and searched the underwater cave for anything that looked helpful. Before anybody could do anything though, there was a beeping sound echoing throughout the cave and the pods all broke, every single Trident jumping out and making a circle around the teens. They all took a battle stance.

"Great…" Cyborg muttered under his breath as all of the Trident's attacked them with their scepters. Raven quickly put up a black shield and the evil sea demons bounced off. When she put it down, everybody attacked.

Starfire and Cyborg blasted many of them back, some exploding and others diving into the water for refuge. Beast Boy transformed into different animals and ran through the rows. Raven threw things at them from the cave and picked them up with her aura, rendering them unconscious. Aqualad punched and kicked at them, as did Robin.

Just then, Raven's leg was grabbed from where she levitated and she was dragged down. Before she could fight the numbers off, she was kicked back into the water. Robin averted his attention from the battle to her and saw her trying to swim back onto the land, but numerous Tridents underwater grabbed her and started to drag her downward. Robin stopped fighting completely and ran past Aqualad to try and get to Raven as she struggled but couldn't get out of their grasp, her head disasppearing under shortly. Robin gasped and went to dive in after when a Trident grabbed him from behind, choking him and pulling on him. The Boy Wonder flipped him off and looked back at the water. He knew he couldn't be the one to save her.

"Aqualad!" Robin called above the fighting. The teen looked back to see Robin near the water, masked eyes pleading. "Raven's down there!"

Without another word Aqualad bashed two Trident's heads together and flipped back, running sleakly past the villains and into the water. Robin looked down and watched him. He knew she was in good hands, as much as he hated it.

"Titans, lets follow! We'll take care of them in time!" Robin called to them all now. They pulled back at their leaders request and piled into the T-Ship, him commanding the team to take them underwater as they all drove the ship down.

"Guys, follow Raven!" the leader commanded and the team did as they were told. He spotted Aqualad trying to fight the Tridents off of her as she became lightheaded. She probably couldn't hold on much longer.

"Is friend Raven going to be alright?" Starfire cried worriedly as they got closer.

"Don't worry Star, we'll get her," Robin said to them. No way would it end like this.

Raven felt like giving up. She wanted to open her mouth and let her lungs drown in water to extinguish the burn she felt. But then she saw Aqualad in front of her fighting off Tridents and made herself focus on breathing, the sight of him reminding her of her teammates. Finally she felt his pair of arms around her, dragging her back up. When they reached the surface, her eyes shot open and she inhaled as much oxygen as her body would allow. She looked over and saw that they were at the edge of Titan Tower's island, glancing back to see none other then Aqualad. She smiled gratefully at him, her eyes tired.

"Thank you," she managed to breath out., "that's twice now."

"Yeah, I think you owe me one," he told her with a smirk of his own. She was about to respond when the T–Ship came up beside them, Robin's side opening.

"Raven, thank god you're okay," he said to her when Aqualad walked her over to the ship. All the Titans got out and everyone came onto the land. Robin came up and hugged her suddenly, pulling her from Aqualad. "Are you ok?"

"Yeah, I'm ok," she whispered back as he let go of her. She approached Cyborg who handed her a towel from the back of the ship. She took off her cloak and replaced it with the towel, wrapping it around herself instead. Robin turned from her back to Aqualad.

"Thank you," he told the Atlantian. "I'm sorry we got off on the wrong foot back there, but you saved Raven, and I should have given you more credit. I'm proud to say that you've deserved becoming an honorary Teen Titan." With that being said Robin handed him a communicator, which he took gratefully.

"No problem," he responded. He took a glance at Raven before looking back at Robin. "You're really lucky you know, getting to have a team like this. I'll see you guys in the future."

And with that Aqualad dived into the water, the Titans watching him disappear.

"Well, our mission's done Titans. Trident's been defeated," Robin said as he approached them. Everybody sighed as they made their way back inside, happy that they could get back to being on dry land for a while.

"You sure you're ok, Rae?" he asked her once she had dried up. They were now walking outside on the island, watching the water ripple after they'd toss rocks in.

"Yeah, I'm positive," Raven told him. She looked over at him. "And Robin?"

"Yeah?"

"Don't call me Rae."

With that she smirked and shoved him towards the water. He fell back, getting soaked in the knee deep water. He playfully grinned at her before grabbing her ankle and dragging her in beside him. She glared at him now too before both of them started laughing lightly and splashing each other in the fading day light.

End Chapter

Well that was so not how the episode went, but I thought it was pretty good. Well please review and tell me what you thought.

Next time…

Slade sends a team of robotic commandos to steal a high-tech chip. The Titans stop the robbery, but then a mysterious new bad guy called Red X tries to steal the same chip. With Robin following a Slade lead on the other side of town, the four other Titans are left to fight Red X, and he seems to know just how to shut them all down. Raven's getting suspicious and a bit concerned. Can she figure out why Robin is getting more distant from her and ditching them all?
