-1The Teen Titans make some new friends ( that I made up), but with them comes a new enemy, a terrible one. He may be a dark hero but he has the purest of hearts and will do anything for those he cares about.

Disclaimer: I do not own Teen Titans or any of the characters therein. If I did the show would not be done! The only characters I claim anything to are the 2 new ones that I made up, and I might own this chair I'm sitting in. Enjoy!

The Saga of Shadow

As an alarm blared and a light flashed five teens raced toward the disturbance in their city.

" TROUBLE" yelled Robin, their spiky-haired leader.

The knight in dark armor turned as a boy on a motorcycle, a cyborg in a car, a green bird, an alien princess, and a demi-demon appeared behind him.

" The Titans…" he spoke in a deep voice though his mouth was covered by his helmet, "my master warned me you would try to interfere."

" And you are?" asked Beast Boy as he resumed human form.

" That is none of your concern shape shifter, where is the prince?", he demanded of the team.

" Who is this prince of which you speak?" asked Starfire floating around with a confused look on her face.

" I don't know who you are or who this price is, but you've attacked innocent people, and for that you're going down.", Robin said in a stern voice.

"Foolish human, my battle is not with you, but I will happily eradicate you and your friends if you stand in my way, NOW WHERE IS HE?"

The knight unsheathed his blade and swung it at the teens, creating enough force to send them flying backward.

" Pretty tough for a guy who's a few centuries out of date," Cyborg said as he regained his balance.

"Azarath.Metrion.Zinthos.", Raven chanted as she hurled a nearby automobile at the knight as he lunged toward them.

He fired some sort of dark energy from his hand destroying the car. Robin took advantage of this distraction by whipping out his staff and attacking the armor clad criminal. The knight simply laughed as Robin attacked as furiously as he could.

"HAHAHAHA! Puny boy you cannot harm a warrior of my caliber, your human weapons cannot damage my armor!", and with that he grabbed Robin by the neck and yelled, "NOW, TELL ME WHERE HE IS!"

Robin gasped for air, but his friends dare not try to help him or the knight could snap his neck like a twig. The Titans had to do something, but their options were fewer and running out fast, but then…

"HERE I AM!" yelled a black blur as it slammed into the knight knocking him into a building. The knight proceeded to jump back at his assailant who soared into the sky, and as the knight drew level with him, he fired a blast of what looked liked the knight's dark energy from both hands sending his foe flying through the air.

" DARKSTAR! NOW!", yelled the mystery fighter as another newcomer flew toward the falling knight and slammed him to the ground. The Titans couldn't help but think she looked familiar.

As the knight flew Earthward, the mystery man yelled, " RAVEN, CYBORG, STARFIRE, BLAST HIM!", and without knowing why they listened to someone they had never seen before didn't occur to any of them, they simply did as they were told and unleashed their attacks. The blast sent the knight flying just above the ground, then the airborne figure shouted, " BEAST BOY, LET HIM HAVE IT!". The green boy transformed into a massive triceratops and rammed the knight straight toward his leader. " HEY ROBIN! Set up the pitch," he said almost laughing now. Robin grabbed the knight and threw him back into the sky. However, the man who had been hovering there had been replaced by a black skinned monster with a tail and what looked like horns on his head, that released another blast of energy from its hand blasting the knight into the street below. The monster landed on the ground and resumed its human shape. Up close the Titans saw that he wore a black suit with armor on his torso and shoulders, the top part of his suit obscured the lower part of his face, and a long dark cape fell to the ground around him. His partner landed beside him, and giggled as she said, " Guess he found what he was looking for." She walked over to her partner and he lovingly place his hand in hers. Then he noticed the confused looks the Titans wore.

"DUDE!" Beast boy yelled, " What was that thing?, Who are you guys?, and What the heck is going on?

" Oh sorry…" he said, " I guess we should introduce ourselves…this is my partner and girlfriend, Darkstar… and me… my name's Shadow."

That's the start of my Saga of Shadow story that tells how my characters meet the Titans. Shadow gives some history of himself and Darkstar in the next chapter. So let me know what ya think of it. THANKS!
