Chapter 13: Luring in the Prey
Its been a month. A month of none stop pain, memories, and continued abuse. I wasn't sure how long I could take it anymore and I didn't care. If it was to stop them from hurting my friends I'd do anything.
"Are you going to give in today?" I hear my Stepfather ask. I say nothing, my eyes trained onto the ground. I bore holes into the filthy ground that I sit on. I feel pity for the ground, it has to hold all our weight everyday, doesn't mean I stop glaring.
"Hey, answer me!" He kicks me and I roll over from the force, I'm in no condition to fight right now. They've starved me, dehydrated me, and tortured me, how would I be in good condition? That doesn't mean my will is broken.
"I-I wo-would n-never betr-tray them. K-Keep dr-dreaming." I manage to get out of my dry throat and I begin to cough roughly. "That doesn't mean they wouldn't betray you." Slade appears next to my Stepfather, he doesn't usually appear in my cell.
Slade never really agreed with my Stepfather on his tactics but let him do as he wish as long as it didn't involve sexual abuse. He had to stop my Stepfather more than once for that offense.
My head whips towards Slade and I manage to lace my voice with venom, "they would never-" Slade ignores me and turns on a screen across from me. Since when was that there? I never got to look for a way out so I guess that's reason enough for me not noticing it.
"Then tell me, what's this?" The screen flickers to life and I see a scene from the Titan's Tower. "We had a few cameras implanted in the Tower." Slade continues then goes quiet as he turns the sound up.
"Thank god she's finally gone!" Cyborg exclaims happily.
"I know right? Terra is a much better addition to the team." Robin says. 'Are they talking about me?'
"I might hate the girl to the bone but getting rid of Diamond was the best thing she has done for us." Raven says drinking her usual tea and reading. 'Well that answers my question.'
Ezzie laughs, "She was so annoying. I wish I could've come up with that plan. When I 'helped' her crash BB's and Terra's date it was only to get at both of them. Terra's face was priceless and when Diamond left it was so worth it." I feel tears spring to my eyes.
"She was the lameness and was so pathetic. I cannot understand why we gave her the 'friendliness'." Star turns to Robin while speaking.
"She was fun to toy with for a while. Plus it helped us do less work. To bad Beast Boy had to go out with the little slut." Robin laughs cruelly. 'Wh-What?'
Beast Boy groans, "Don't bring her up dude. That freak wasn't worth my time. To think she took a liking to me was insulting. How could a thing like her even think she could actually be my girlfriend." My blood runs cold as my face hardens. 'They were only toying with me?! Of course, they probably didn't even bother to find me.'
The screen flicks off, the video ending. I'm well aware that a video could be edited but that had the recording time and everything!! As much as I want it to be fake I know it isn't. Tears stream down my hard face until I finally force them to stop, coming to my own conclusion.
I look up at Slade, "when can I start?"
3rd P.O.V
A few days after these events, Diamond is healed. (One of her powers) She is fully recovered as well. Diamond was sent on many small missions, getting better and better at combat and her powers with training in between missions.
She was given a new pair of clothes. These clothes were sort of a fairytale theme. She had on a red hooded shaw and a short dress that came to her lower thighs, flaring out with layers. The dress had no neckline because it cut off lowly at the top of her chest, making a emphasis on the size. She wore netted leggings that came up to just above her knees and a pair of heeled boots that were below her knee. She now has bronze bracelets around her wrists with hidden daggers that with unsheathe if she needs them in combat. Finally she has her hair loose verses her normal ponytail and occasional bun.
Diamond has grown her nails out and sharpened them to the point that they're weapons themselves. Diamond smirks as she stands up from her crouched position on a roof, tonight is when she will kill the Titans. A explosion goes off in a laboratory beneath her near the docks.
She presses the button on her earpiece to speak, "phase one complete."
In the entrance to the flaming lab a man smirks beneath his mask and turns to his...partner for the moment. "It has begun." He states after getting the information from his young apprentice.
The Titans arrive to the scene of the explosion. They all look disheveled, Diamond smirks at seeing one Titan missing. 'Seems the bitch sat this one out. I wonder why they look so tired. Oh well, not my problem.' She laughs lowly, her hood concealing her face.
"Slade! I know you're there!! Give us back Diamond!" Robin speaks for the group. Slade steps out of the entrance slowly, a man known as Diamond's Stepfather follows soon after. Slade laughs evilly, "Robin, how nice to see you and the Titans. You see, I would 'give Diamond back' as you say but....what if she doesn't want to return to you?"
Beast Boy steps forward threateningly. "Of course she'd want to come back! Why wouldn't she?!" Slade chuckles lightly, "Diamond. Would you like to show yourself yet?" There is a shift in the wind before a knife implants into the ground in the middle of the Titans.
Everyone follows the line of trajectory to a roof. A girl jumps down from that same roof, not caring that she's wearing a dress. She lands gracefully in a crouch before standing back up. She turns to the group of teens across from her, glaring hatefully at them as she smiles maliciously.
The teens let out a loud gasp at the girl before them. She no longer emits that friendly, shy aura. Now she gives off a hateful, aura that radiates power. "Hello, Titans." She speaks and her voice is no longer quiet or gentle, now it is hard and laced with venom.
"D-Diamond?" Ezzie says dismounting from her dragon. "The one and only." Diamond smirks, placing a hand on her hip. "Wh-What happened to you?" Raven asks the girl who is examining her nails in a bored fashion.
"I became better. I know Terra getting rid of me was quote, 'the best thing that could've happened'. Now I wonder....where's your new teammate? Was she to scared to face me herself?" Diamond glares at the girl. "What are you talking about Terra isn't-" Diamond cuts Ezzie off rudely. "I didn't ask about her wellbeing, it doesn't concern me so I don't care."
"What did you do to her?" Comes the voice of a very quiet Beast Boy. "We just showed her the truth of what you all think of her." Comes Slade's reply as another random screen appears. 'Seriously, where does he get the time to get all these TV screens!?' Diamond questions in an annoyed way inside her mind.
The video plays and ends shortly after. "Huh?! We never said that!" Cyborg yells in outrage. Diamond ignores the bewildered looks on the Titan's faces and speaks hatefully. "Don't feign innocence. You shouldn't have come here if you were so glad I was gone." She pulls out a gun.
"This here is my baby, a magnum. I hope you enjoy being hunted. You have the next three seconds to run and then the fun begins." She closes her eyes as Slade pats her head and walks off with the other man to a place no one knows of...no one except Diamond.
"Let's start the countdown.
3....." The Titans glance at each other, unsure if they should attack, run, or explain to her. "Diamond we never said any of that!" Starfire tries to convince her friend made into an enemy. "2......." Diamond just smiles, she can't wait for the fun.
The Titans take the hint and disperse, running in their own directions.
"1....... Ready or not, let the fun commence~."
~ End of Chapter 13 ~
I think this chappy was good. I enjoyed writing about her outfit. I want to cosplay as Sheva one day.
Robin- Animeandmusic doesn't own whatever she doesn't own. I hated this chapter. I would never say something like that.
Diamond- 1, 2, 3 Who shall be first?
*looks at Robin* I suggest you run.
Robin- Suggestion taken. *runs as fast as he can*
Reaper- I liked this chapter too, I bet the next one will be a whole lot of fun. *grins a unicorn-ish grin*
Jeff- It better be a lot of gore.
But of course, what type of author would I be without having her pick off the characters....one by one.
Alexandru- You better not hurt my babe.
Meh.....there's a chance of it.

PS The outfit on Diamond now is from Resident Evil 5 Sheva's Fairytale outfit. Either look it up or I'll place a pic to the side later, I typed this on my phone so I can't put up the pic yet.
This chapter was a makeup for me being so dang lazy.
