Disclaimer: I don't own Teen Titans. But I do own a really cute Mickey Mouse Mug. That counts for something, doesn't it?

Summary: Name: Raven Roth. Age:17. Occupation: Apprentice to Slade Wilson. Mission: Make Robin, leader of the Teen Titans, fall for me. Problem: I think I'm falling back.

Raven's POV:

A vulture.

That's what he is.

Staring at a piece of meat.

Hunger.

You can see it in his eyes.

The way he looks at you.

A look that almost says…

Dinner time.

He circles me for what seems like the millionth time. Not saying anything, not doing… anything. Just staring and waiting until I feel like I want to crack. But I don't. If it was any other person one look from him would have sent them running. But I know, I know that this is the game he plays. Another's torture, is his amusement. Not just a game, but a test. To see who can stand the pressure. And I passed the moment I walked through those doors. Do you know why? Because I'm the best. The best he has.

The best.

And he knows it.

" Slade, what game are you playing this time?" I growl at him. Which causes him to stop walking. But not in fear, never in fear, but in amusement.

"Raven dearest,…what ever do you mean?" You can practically hear the smirk in his voice.

"Tell me an order or tell me to get out, but never play with me." With a snarl, he grabs my face and pulls me up to his mask.

"Had it been any other day I would have gladly cut that pretty little tongue out. Fortunately for you, I need you for an important mission. But know this, if you ever make another smart remark such as that, I will so graciously put you in your place. Understand?" He says with a hiss.

"Oh, I understand,…Master!" I spat out at him

He gives me a small smile.

"Now, that's more like it."

"This, is your target." Just as he said that a big picture of a boy appeared on the screen. He seemed sort of…normal. Well, besides the fact that he looks like a walking traffic light, he's wearing a mask, and he has an unnatural amount of hair gel.

I can see it now.

Hair gel boy to the rescue.

Ha.

What's his power? Being able to shoot hair gel out of his hands?

What a joke.

"His name is Robin. He may not seem like much but don't be deceived. He has beaten a countless number of my bots."

Not like that's too hard.

"Make him fall in love with you, then bring him down, easy as that."

What!

"Can you handle it?" He says as if he's implying something.

"Have I ever done anything that said I couldn't?" I look up at him.

"I suppose not." He says with that same smirk.

"Then drop it." I turn to go. And I get as far as the door before he calls out to me.

"Oh, and Raven?" I turn to him and look at him in his…eye. "Failure is not an option."

He says with a bored expression on his face. I give him a look that reflects his own. Then turn toward the door.

"Good. Because I don't do failure." With that, I'm gone and the only sound heard is the door closing behind me.

There's the first chapter. The next one will be in Robins' POV. I will probably go back and forth between the two. Oh, and obviously this will be a Rob/Rae. More to come.

Review.
