This is a one-shot sequel to this fan fic, which is an Aftershock remake: www.fanfiction.net/s/3487704/1/The-New-Aftershock I may write a normal, chaptered sequel, set during season 4 with mentions of season 3. Basically the idea is after Trigon resurrects Slade, he's completely forgotten his and Robin's time together in season 2 and Robin must find a way to get his memories back with the help of Jackal/Jake, who is now a guardian angel--read The New Aftershock to know who he is and why he's dead-- For now, enjoy this one-shot SladinForeverFor the past two months everything had been confusing, but it was all clear now; the second chance he always needed was what led him to cause more destruction. Robin hadn't known or understood why the one he never told he loved had been doing this…until now.
"So let me get this straight: you helped Trigon by targeting Raven, telling and showing her what she was destined to do, and hurting me so that you could be with me?" Slade ran a gloved hand through Robin's hair gently, pushing a loose strand behind his ear. "That's right." "Then when you said, 'I didn't come back for you', that was also a lie?" Slade nodded. "Not only did I come back to do Trigon's chores, but to be with you, yes. I'm sorry I couldn't tell you; I needed to keep Trigon's trust. But, in the end, it has come to this." Robin's masked eyes narrowed in sadness. "You've been gone for almost a year. You could've at least tried-" Slade placed his hands on Robin's shoulders. "You've forgotten that Trigon is all seeing. If he didn't have that ability, I would have gladly told you. I'm very sorry for any pain I have caused you from this. I'm sorry I didn't speak to you every time you visited Terra and Jake's grave. I'm sorry; for all of it." Robin and Slade stared silently at each other for a long time. Robin slowly smiled. "I forgive you. As long as you're here now, that's all that matters." Slade placed his right hand on his cheek. Robin placed his hand over it while closing his eyes. Tears formed behind his mask. "I've missed you so much." Robin’s voice had cracked slightly. Slade smiled softly. "So have I, my little Robin." Wrapping his arms around him, Slade hugged him close to his chest. Robin hugged back, tears falling past his mask. They stayed that way for a while before Slade pushed him back. "Once the Earth is saved, we will be together once again." Robin wiped at his cheeks and then sniffed. He regained his composure and then smiled. "I know it's a bad time, but…will you take me?" Slade's eye widened slightly. He quickly stepped back and turned to the side, rubbing the side of his masked head. Robin blinked in confusion. "That's…an impossible request at the moment." Robin blinked. "The Titans can hold off for five extra-" "That may be so, but…that's not the reason." Robin chuckled. "Why? Did your balls drop off?" His eyes suddenly widened when Slade cleared his throat. A snort came out of his nose when he tried not to laugh, but he couldn't hold it in. He burst out laughing, clutching at his stomach while doing so. "You're dickless! Th-That's…That's…Tha-" Robin stopped. Embarrassment quickly formed over his face. He slowly looked up at Slade, who was still rubbing the side of his head. "W-Wait… Then that would mean-?" Lowering his hand, Slade turned back to him. "I have no flesh or blood. My entire body melted away when I fell into the lava-filled ravine. Only a skeleton remains." Slade paused. "I would love to touch and caress every inch of your beautiful skin, Robin, but for now, it's impossible. I wouldn't be able to feel anything. But, once this is all over and we return with your friends to your tower, I will make long-awaited love to you. I promise." Robin blushed darkly at his choice of words. "I…I'll hold you to that then." Slade ran his hand through Robin's hair again. "Then let's continue." Slade walked past Robin and continued on his way, but he didn't follow. "Slade?" Stopping, Slade looked over his shoulder. He saw Robin pushing the tips of his pointer fingers together in front of his face. "Yes?" Robin looked up at him. "Can you show me your face before we go?" Slade stared at him momentarily before smiling. "If you wish it." Turning around, he walked over to Robin, raised his hand to his face, and slowly removed the Halloween mask. Robin's eyes widened once he saw Slade's skull and the ruined right eye socket. "I'm sorry if it repulses you in any way." Robin blinked. He shook his head. "No, it's just…a little creepy," he said sheepishly. "I'm just so used to the face and hair." Slade placed his mask back on before smiling behind it. "Understandable. …I think it's more than fair that you let me see your eyes now." Cheeks flaring red, Robin looked down at the ground, rubbing the back of his head. "Um…" Gently gripping his chin, Slade made Robin look up at him. "I have missed those dark blue eyes, my little Robin." Sighing, Robin looked off to the side. "There's nothing special about them," he said quietly. "They're just blue…" Slade had a feeling Robin was hiding something from him. "Well, they are special to me. I want…no, need, to see them." He rested his fingers on the corner of Robin's mask. "Please." "You really don't-" Robin clenched his eyes shut tight when Slade quickly ripped the mask off his face. The adhesive glue stung the edges as it had been yanked off. Slade stared blankly at Robin's face. He could clearly see the scar running diagonally over his right eye. Robin slowly opened both and stared at Slade sadly. Raising his left hand, Slade lightly traced over the scar with his thumb. "It is official, Robin," he said gently, "you and I really are a lot alike." Robin reverted his eyes to the ground, tears forming. "It's not that, it's just-" Robin paused. "If anyone had the right to put the scar there," he looked up, "it should've been you, not Raven." Slade smiled. "I wouldn't have been able to do it myself." He wiped Robin's tears away. "The thought of hurting you hurts me." Robin's watery eyes seemed to dance as he smiled. "Really?" Slade nodded. "I never want to hurt you again. Now come on. We have to save Earth." Nodding, Robin continued to follow Slade down the dark path.Robin dodged off to the side before Trigon's deadly eye beam could hit him. He rolled over just in time to see Slade get hit head on. He flew back, crashing into a slab of concrete. Quickly scrambling to his feet, Robin ran towards the fallen man. Another eye blast came from behind him, but he didn’t notice. His eyes widened with a snap as it hit him full force in the back. He couldn’t even cry out as he flew forward, his chest sticking out. When he fell, his knees hit the cracked concrete, making his left leg break. The rest of his body then fell forward and he hit the side of his head while sliding forward a bit. Then his legs came crashing down after sticking in the air a few inches. As he lay there, unmoving, little Raven rushed over to him, trying to shake him awake.
"Get up! Robin, please! Get up!" Twenty or so feet away, Slade's eye stirred behind his mask. He slowly opened it briefly and then groaned. Closing his eyes, he dragged himself up into a sitting position against the chunk of broken building. Opening his eye, he saw Raven, now back to normal age, standing in front of the fallen Robin. Her cloak was now white, her hair reaching her lower back. Ignoring her for now as she advanced on Trigon, Slade clumsily stood up and stumbled towards the boy. He fell to his knees, his right hand reaching for Robin's head. He gently ran a hand through his hair. "Robin, you have to get up now." Robin didn't move. Reaching with both hands, Slade gripped his arms and dragged him across the street towards him. Sitting back down, he laid Robin in his lap and held him. He then lightly shook him. "Robin, get up." Slade paused, ignoring the sounds around him. Robin still wouldn't move or open his eyes. A strange sensation passed through his entire being. Slade's body shook lightly as he realized his worst fear seemed to be coming true. "Robin…?" Tears formed in Slade's eyes when there was no response. He shook Robin harder, calling his name, but he didn’t show signs of awakening. After a few more shakes, Slade stopped, realization hitting him hard in the chest. He didn't notice that the Earth was returning to normal nor did he see the Titans looking at him. Raven pushed her way to the front. She stared blankly down at Slade, who lifted Robin up and hugged him tightly. Tears were streaming down his cheeks. "Dude, why is-?" Raven held her hand out to stop Beast Boy from finishing. He quickly snapped his mouth shut. Raven stepped up to Slade. "Slade," she said quietly, "don't give up on him just yet." Slade was breathing heavily as he continued to cry. Robin still didn't open his eyes. Reaching up with his left hand, Slade removed his mask, dropping it with a clatter. The other Titans stared wide-eyed as they saw his appearance: untidy white hair, five o'clock shadow, and a ruined right eye that had a scar running down it. Slade stared down at Robin in his arms, tears dripping onto his cheek. Not caring that most of the city was watching, he bent over and softly kissed Robin's mouth. Both Beast Boy and Cyborg's mouths dropped open while Starfire looked confused. Raven was completely still and silent. Ending the kiss, Slade slowly raised his head to stare down at Robin. When he still didn't wake, his eyes narrowed more and tears formed again. They streamed down his cheeks, his teeth gritted in anger. Clenching his eyes shut, a strangled sob escaped him. Wrapping his arms tighter around Robin, Slade continued to cry. The Titans stared sadly at the scene, the condition of their leader breaking their hearts. Robin…was dead.
That last line is an alternate ending—even though it was part of the original drabble-- So here’s the rest of the original:
The Pseudo-Alternate Ending:
"You should know me by now. I always bounce back."
Slade chuckled. Two weeks had passed since the end of the world. Slade and Robin were standing in front of the giant glass windows of the tower, looking out at the city. Robin was leaning on crutches and favoring his left broken leg. He wore a red T-shirt with black shorts that reached his knees and was barefoot. "Yes, I have forgotten how strong you can be." Robin smiled. "I'm not as strong as you." Slade looked at him. "On the contrary, little Robin: we're exactly the same." Robin turned to face Slade, a grin on his face. "I suppose you're right." Continuing to smile at him, Slade rested his right hand to his neck and leaned in for a kiss. Robin opened his mouth seconds before he reached him. Slade slid his tongue into Robin's mouth and massaged his own. "And I'm…still…holding you to…your…promise…" Robin almost lost his balance when Slade kissed him harder. He held tightly onto him so that he wouldn't fall and hurt himself more. "Ahem!" Slade ended the kiss short. Robin blushed, chuckling nervously. He turned his head, smiling. "Sorry Raven." The Empath stood behind them, her arms folded over her chest. "Not only that, but Robin, you need more rest. I also need to see how well you have healed so far." Robin nodded. "Yes, Raven." Slade pushed a strand of hair behind his ear. "I will see you in a bit." Nodding, Robin gripped his crutches, stood a little straighter, and then followed Raven out of the main room. Slade watched them go until the double doors shut. Turning back to the windows, he stared at the beautiful city and smirked.While AFF and its agents attempt to remove all illegal works from the site as quickly and thoroughly as possible, there is always the possibility that some submissions may be overlooked or dismissed in error.
