Epilogue

Slade walked through the old hideout, cringing as he came across the control room. He and Robin had just reached Riko, and had arrived at the hideout. Robin was now sleeping soundly…or at least he was asleep.

Slade hoped he had made a good move, coming here to Riko. But Jump had been destroyed in the stampede; obliterated. And with no heroes left to save it, it would be a long time before Jump was ever fully restored.

He couldn't help but smile as he thought of his plan, perfectly executed. Now that Robin was drowning in despair, he would need someone to save him. And Slade just so happened to be ready. When Robin finally broke, Slade would be there to fix him.

To his liking, of course.

But as Slade was walking around the control room, memories found their way into the forefront of his mind.


(flashback)

"Put her in here!" Slade yelled. Immediately, two sladebots dragged the girl into the room and threw her on the floor. Landing with a sickening thud, the girl whimpered, but still didn't cry.

*She's a strong one,* Slade pondered as he moved the sladebots out of the room. *Very strong.* When he turned back around, he saw the ten year old looking at him with a glare that could have chilled the greatest assassin.

"You're going to get wrinkles if you keep doing that," Slade teased as he passed her. The girl merely scowled harder, clenching her fists as she got up from her spot on the floor.

"Why did you take me?" she asked.

Slade chuckled. How easy it was to forget the straightforwardness young children presented.

"Because, Reyna, you're going to be my apprentice," Slade replied. Then, before the child could respond, he had grabbed her by the hair and yanked her up so that they were eye to eye, or mask to mask.

"Perhaps you have forgotten that you agreed to serve me!" Slade

"You were going to kill Karina!" Reyna replied through clenched teeth, refusing to show any pain. At this, Slade chuckled again.

"Oh Reyna, I won't kill Karina," Slade spoke. "I'll kill Karina and Tami."

At this, Reyna let out a desperate wail.

"Don't hurt them!" she cried. "I'll do it! I'll be your apprentice!"

Slade tossed Reyna back onto the ground. Once again, she didn't let out a squeal of pain, but just looked back at Slade with narrowed eyes, hidden behind her domino mask.

"Good girl. And from now on, I'd like you to call me master."


Before Slade could stop it, another memory came into his mind.


(flashback)

The girl was progressing faster than Slade could have hoped. In reality, Slade was more than pleased; he was elated. Reyna was truly becoming the perfect apprentice, in every way. She was fierce, cunning, and always victorious. There was only one issue Slade truly had with Reyna. She would do whatever Slade ordered her…as long as it didn't involve hurting someone. Reyna could steal anything, and if someone charged at her, she could fight back. But she never took the attack. Always flight with that one. Like a bird. But now, that was about to change. It had been six months since he had taken Reyna in, and she would learn how to attack. For the good of her sisters.

Suddenly, the door to the control room opened, and in walked Reyna.

"Hello master," she spoke simply, looking at the ground.

"I see you have returned with the device," Slade replied. "Was it easy to take?"

"There was maximum security guarding the perimeter," Reyna muttered. "But once I got through the perimeter, there were only a few more guards to get past."

"Did you hit anyone?" Slade asked, even though he knew the answer due to the footage his hidden cameras presented. Reyna paused, biting her lip.

"No sir," she finally whispered.

"Reyna," Slade spoke disapprovingly. "I told you specifically to hit at least three people."

"But sir," Reyna looked up from her feet. "I still got the device. I saw no reason to hit anyone. I would have revealed myself if I had tried to hit them and I might not have escaped."

"Do you question my orders Reyna?" Slade hissed, his voice rising.

"N-no sir," Reyna quivered, as Slade rose from his chair and began to move closer to the girl.

"I'm starting to think that you do," Slade growled. Before Reyna could respond, Slade had grabbed her by the wrist and began placed a gun in her hand. "I didn't want to introduce this to you yet Reyna," Slade continued as a door opened to reveal a child, younger than Reyna. "But you need to learn who's in charge around here."

"S-Slade, I c-can't," the gun shook violently in Reyna's hand. She knew it was loaded; Slade had made her practice taking guns apart, and she knew the weight of a loaded gun.

"You can and you will," Slade grabbed Reyna's arm to keep it steady. "Or perhaps I should get your sisters in here…"

"NO!" Reyna cried and fired the gun.

At Slade.


Slade gasped as the memory faded, his ears ringing with the shot that had been fired five years ago. Once he had recovered, he quickly pressed a button on his arm, and Mad Mod's face lit up on it.

"You're sure you killed Reyna," Slade hissed at Mad Mod. "I didn't see her body."

"Slade, like I told you before," Mad Mod replied. "She was so shredded that we had to take her away so that Robin wouldn't faint. But I assure you, she is gone."

"Good," Slade hissed. "And the Titans, along with Batman?"

"Five one man space pods are making their way through space as we speak," Mad Mod replied. Suddenly, a crackling noise came from behind Mad Mod. After looking behind him and turning back around, the Brit spoke, "If you'll excuse me Slade, I have to take care of something."

TTTTTTTTTT

Mad Mod cut the transition. The other villains were looking at him with curious looks. He waited for one of them to say something. But it looked like they were all going to honor their agreement.

The villains might have done a lot for Slade, but they wouldn't kill for him. That was Slade's job and his alone.

Jinx stepped forward, holding out reports from the launch.

"Sir," she stated. "All six pods have launched successfully and are now on their one way trips to their specific destinations."

"Good," Mad Mod whispered. Then, taking the papers in his hands, he tore them right down the middle.
