"A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step."
- Lao Tzu
And so, dear reader, let us take the first step into our tale of justice with a patient soul, a clever spirit, and a bag of potato chips—after all, what better way is there to start a story? Now, on to business…
PROLOGUE
It was a dark, stormy night, just the kind the pacing man lived for. Ahh, things were finally going his way… and all because of the elaborate mirror that was destined to be the downfall of the Titans. A shame, really… he could've negotiated with the little group, made them into minions for the greater good…
Then again, there was always the chance they'd come to him and plead for forgiven as he, supreme ruler of the Earth, looked down at them like he'd wanted to do so many countless times before. Yes, he could work with that, too…
The man smiled thinly to himself, though it wasn't visible through the mask fully covering his head. His gaze lingered on the mirror in the center of the room. It glowed faintly, doing the task at hand as the day grew darker. Convincing Vaati to let him borrow it had been too much of a drag, and so he'd taken to the easiest way around it: murder. A murder that was almost too easy, but… he'd worry about that later.
For the moment, all he was going to do was sit back and enjoy as Robin became putty in his hands….
~~~Meep!~~~Meep!~~~(pretend that's a line, please)~~~meep!~~~(that,too.)
"Greetings, dear friends!" Starfire squealed, walking into the Titans' living room with a big tray of dome sort of sticky substance.
"Uh… Star?" Beast Boy, who was on the couch with Cyborg, paused the game he was playing and turned around. "What is that?"
"This is a traditional Tamarainan dish, Zeedleglosh Bartox!" she smiled excitedly.
"looks, erm… delicious!" Cyborg, who was now turned around and facing the red-head, gave a fake smile, when the Zeedleglosh started crawling off the tray.
Raven, who was reading, closed her book. "Is it supposed to do that?" she asked, eyeing the glop, which was now on the floor crawling towards Starfire's pet unmutated moth, Silky.
"Uh…no. I do not think so…"she replied, watching Silky eat the gross glob.
"How 'bout we all go out to pizza, instead, y'all?" Cyborg asked .
"Ooh! What a glorious idea! I shall consume the cheesy delight with mustard galore!"Starfire flew into the air.
Meanwhile…
Robin was in his room surrounded by newspaper articles.
"Argh!" Robin cried, "Where is he?".
The Boy Wonder was, of course, talking about Slade.
"Yo!" Cyborg knocked on Robin's door, "We're goin' out for pizza. You comin'?"
Robin sighed.
"Sure , I'll be there in a sec." he called. He stood up and stretched, then walked out, shadow following him.
