(Robin's POV)
As I headed through the streets of Jump City, I couldn't help but feel bad. Maybe I took it too hard on the titans... They were only trying to protect me. I turned a sharp corner and took out my communicator. It showed were Luna is, and where I am. Her beacon stayed in its spot, blinking every few moments.
Maybe she's sleeping? She hasn't moved in a while....
I pushed any bad thoughts away and headed towards a shortcut. Through an alleyway, of course.
It was an open alley, so no criminals could pop out here. I already have enough problems right now.
I checked my communicator again. Luna's beacon was very slowly moving. I hope she's okay...
Suddenly, her beacon started going everywhere.
I needed to move. Fast.

(Starfire's POV)
I sat on the couch, very much sad. It almost felt as if the giant raincloud was hovering over me. I must help Robin. It was not alright to leave him on his own!

(Robin's POV)
I was getting closer. Maybe a few more blocks.
There were plenty of storage units on the block. The furthest one, close to the dock, looked different from the rest.
I went closer to it, and my communicator buzzed uncontrollably. I grabbed it, checking on Luna. She's here.
I cautiously opened the door, sucking in my breath. When I slipped in, it was pitch dark. In tip-toed through the hallway, feeling around as it got darker when I edged further.
Suddenly, a pathway of light switched on. Starting where I was to... Luna.
She was hung, lifelessly in the air. Her eyes where closed, but her face showed pain.
"Luna!" I shouted.
All the lights where on now, and one dark voice killed the silence of peace.
"She is merely unconscious... for now," Slade said.
I turned towards the sound of the voice, and there he was, sitting on a 'throne'.
"Luna somehow regained her memories. But, it was too easy to defeat her when we battled."
I glanced back to Luna, who was bruised in multiple areas, and her nose was slightly bleeding.
"It doesn't matter what condition she's in, all I need are her powers," He simply said.
"What are you going to do?" I asked.
He got up from his seat, and started walking down the steps.
"Since you asked, I am merely going to drain Luna's gifted powers, and use it for total destruction.." he started.
"Earthquakes, lands slides, tornadoes, floods, and frozen wastelands," Slade's voice grew. "The world will be under my control."
I pulled out my staff.
"You'll have to get through me first," I demanded.
All Slade did was scoff.
"Foolish. I plan to finish you off first, then, no one will stop me."
I charged fast, and whipped my leg around into a kick. He blocked my kick, throwing me backward. I managed to land on my feet.
Slade pushed forward, punching my in the jaw. Pain shot into my head as it rang.
As I got up, I barley had time to react to a foot in my chest. I was sent stumbling backward, barley being able to stay up strait.
"You've gotten soft," Slade tisked. "How pathetic. Your feelings for her, is blinding you."
I roared with anger and sent a punch across the face.
The impact sent him stumbling backward as well. When he moved his head, it was crooked and sideways. At first I thought it would be easier to fight him, but that was before he cracked his neck back into place.
It freaked me out, but the that wasn't the important right now.
I pulled into a punch, but he grabbed my hand.
"Good form," he taunted.
He threw me aside, and I rammed into a wall.
I tried to get up, struggling to my feet, be collapsed on my knees.
"But not good enough," he finished.
I got up, charging with all my speed, and kicked into the air.
Before I could even touch him, a fist was in my stomach. I stayed in the air as the painful blow stuck in my stomach. I fell to the ground, the air knocked out of me.
I coughed and gaged, sucking in air by the second.
A foot landed on the side of my ribcage, kicking me further away.
I heard foot steps getting closer to me.
I groaned and slammed my fist into the ground.
"I understand your frustration, Robin," Slade said cooly. "I know you hate to lose as much as I do... But..."
I heard a click.
"This is the end."
I closed my eyes. I failed.
I'm so sorry Luna... I'm... a failure.
I heard a shot.
I felt nothing.
