Chapter3-DoubleHeartbreak

Robin was literally dragged until he and Slade reached the large double main doors. In Robin's apprentice suit he looked much darker and much more dangerous. Slade felt very proud with his new and improved version of Robin.

Slade swung opened the door and shoved Robin inside the large room. He then followed him in.

Robin stood stiffly as he looked at his friends who were still bound to the wall by their wrists. He was shaking with anger at the sight of it. The rest of the Titans on the other hand, stated at Robin in shock and disbelief. They couldn't believe what they were seeing.

"Robin..." Starfire said softly. She was confused at why Robin would betray them. Surely he hasn't turned evil?

Beside her Beast Boy let out a soft "Dude," and for once seemed to be speechless.

Slade walked up behind Robin and put his hand on his shoulder. Robin shuddered but stayed where he was. He didn't want to risk Slade killing his friends and allowing his threat to be put into action.

"Robin has agreed to be my apprentice as long as I keep you alive."

Cyborg and Beast Boy  gasped with raven sulking in the corner while Starfire looked like she was going to cry.

"Robin" star started. "You're not to listen to this mad of the man." she continued firmly.

Robin looked at her before averting his gaze.

"Sorry Star. I listen, or you all get put into oblivion." Robin said sadly, hatred hinting behind.

Slade stood behind Robin. He could not see Robin's face but recognised the pure hatred in his voice. He frowned and squeezed Robin's shoulder hard in warning. Robn clenched his fingers and tried not to hold back his attack.

"Let's go Robin," Slade said darkly.

"We'll get out of this Slade and when we do you will pay." Cyborg shouted. Slade chose to ignore the comment and carried on, leaving the room.

Robin followed Slade and just before he left he turned and winked at his friends.

Slade lead the way through the maze of corridors. Robin followed him silently. He was curious he'd admit but he just waited. They stopped in front of another door teal and gold in colour. Slade opened it and waved Robin in.

"After you Robin"

Robin eyed him suspiciously before walking inside the room. It was covered with screens. To his relief, Slade followed him inside, instead of leaving and locking him in like he had expected.

Robin looked up at the screens, very confused.

"What's going on Slade?" he asked confused, turning to face Slade.

"I want answers." Slade replied narrowing is only visible eye.

"I'm not sure what you're talking about." Robin yelled truthfully not knowing.

Slade pressed a button and the screens turned on. They all showed Robin sitting in front of the Titans or his computer. Robin stared at the screen in confusion trying to work out when the videos were recorded.

on the screen robin was typing in words on the computer or talking with his friends.He was biting his lip and seemingly thinking about something with either the computer or his friends.

"you are wondering when the video was taken aren't you?" Slade questioned.

Robin gasped as realization hit him like a smack to the face.He knew exactly when it had been taken. The thing he didn't know was why Slade wanted him to see it.

"Lets watch shall we?" Slade taunted.

Robin could do nothing but watch as the clip unfolded in front of him.

Words displayed on the screen. The title assumably.
Then it started.

Raven walked up silently behind Robin. She knew that Robin knew that she had been seen. Almost no one could sneak up behind Robin. Almost.

"Everything okay Robin?" she asked concerned.

Robin swivelled around in his chair to face her. He was frowning.

"It's about Terra." he admitted.

"I think she's spying for Slade." Robin continued

"I am sure she was in my room and Cyborg said she had been touchy about emails." He continued once more.

"What makes you think she's working with him?" Raven hissed the last word.

"This." Robin said handing raven a small black diary with slade's logo in orange on the cover.

"We trusted her!" Raven almost screeched.

"Shhhhh." Was Robin's rushed reply for her to be quiet.

Just then Beast Boy, Cyborg, Starfire and Terra walked in.
Robin glared at the already uncomfortable girl.

"Titans, Terra and I need a minute." Robin commanded.

The video cut off there.
"What do you want to know?" Robin asked confused.

He was careful and confused but still staring at the screen.
Slade came closer to Robin.

"Why did you only tell the goth girl and not the rest of the Titans about Terra's betrayal?"

A/n: okay I know this was a shorter chappy. Sorry dear readers. Hope to see you next chapter.
