The Vampire Titan

Memories

The next day, I woke up with a splitting headache. I stumbled to the bathroom, finding pain killers and taking a double dose.

I planned on visiting Julius today. Maybe he could give me some information, or I could get him to promise to keep my location a secret. I doubted it, but it was worth a shot, right?

I dressed in my black leggings, and one of my loose tank tops. It was green, and had little sequins in random places. I laced up my black heeled boots, and brushed my hair and teeth.

I then made my way to the main room, where I found Raven making tea, Beastboy and Cyborg playing some video game, And Starfire making some food over the stove. It looked like a giant yellow blob, and I swear it was breathing.

"Where's Robin?" I asked, standing as far away as possible from Star's creation.

"Probably training," Cyborg said, not taking his eyes off of his game. "He usually trains early and doesn't - not fair! You cheated!" He started to go back to his game, and I knew I lost him.

"Right, well, I'm going to visit Julius in his cell," I stated, and started to make my way out the door. In a flash, a green cheetah was blocking my way, and the building was going on lockdown. "What the- whats wrong?" I asked, turning to face the others.

"We knew you would want to visit him," Raven muttered from her place in the kitchen area. Her hood was up, and her cloak was wrapped securely aroun her. She looked frightening, and I took a step back.

"Well, why can't I?" I defied, glaring at the others.

"We don't how he'll react, Blondie," Cyborg explained, and I sighed.

"But I do! I know how he fights, and you saw from yesterday that I know how to take him down if needed," I said. "Besides, I don't plan on entering his cell anyway."

"Krys, it's too dangerous." I turned to see Robin in the doorway, and he had a determined look in his eye.

"Don't you want to know what the Fangs are planning?" I asked, stepping towards him. "They've never been this determined to get someone before. I know they're not after me just because Jeremy and I had a thing. Usually if someone goes missing, or runs off, we search for them for a week at most, and that's it." I didn't mention that it was because we caught them most of the time - it probably wouldn't help my predicament. "I ran away from them three years ago. Jeremy should've given up ages ago."

Robin hesitated, and I could see he was battling with himself.

"Please?" I begged. "If we know what their up to, I'll be able to stay. But if we're in the dark like this, I need to get out of here before somethin bad happens."

"I'll go with you," he decided. "I don't trust him, even if he is separated from you."

"Robin, are you sure?" Cyborg asked.

"Yeah, dude," Beastboy spoke up, switching back to himself. "We saw him fight yesterday."

"He's not like other villains," Raven added. "He's not just looking for world or city domination - he's looking for blood."

I chuckled. "He's just a tracker and retriever. Trust me, he gets sick at the sight of blood."

"It's fine guys, seriously," Robin assured.

Cyborg sighed, before typing some codes into his robotic arm. The steel when up, and I flinched from the light, still slightly scared.

"Come on," Robin said, and I followed him to the garage.

Before we closed the door, I heard laughing.

"She has him whipped," Cyborg chuckled, and I froze in my place. They couldn't see me, and Robin was already ahead, out of hearing range. Even if he was standing next to me, he probably wouldn't be able to hear. I was only able to because of my vampire hearing.
