Prologue
"Titans! Cinderblock's attacking a bank!" Robin yelled into the communicator as the sirens were blaring throughout the tower. "Raven, Star, Beast Boy, fly there ahead of us. Me and Cyborg will drive!"
Robin met Cyborg in the hall as they were running to the garage, but then Robin's communicator beeped. "Raven to Robin, there is no sign of Beast Boy out here."
"Cyborg! Where is he?"
Cyborg's arm beeped as he raised it to look at the monitor. "He's in his room, probably oversleeping."
"Leave him! We don't have time for this!" He then lifted his own communicator and spoke into it. "Calling all Honorary Titans in Jump City! We need backup at the First Jump City bank in the center of the city! Cinderblock just smashed through the front wall!"
Cyborg looked up at the blaring sirens and shook his head, "BB could sleep through another Trigon."
Robin's communicator beeped, "Jinx to Robin, I'm on my way."
"Good, we'll meet you there."
Over at the First Jump City Bank, there was a giant hole in the front of the building. Minutes later, a group of Billy Numerous marched out of the building laughing, and behind them was Cinderblock. He was carrying the bank's vault on his right shoulder, holding it there with one arm, while a hysterical Gizmo sat on the giant's left shoulder. Mammoth and See-more came out behind Cinderblock.
Suddenly, the bank vault began to glow with Raven's characteristic dark energy. Cinderblock grunted at this in confusion, and then the vault began to rise up into the air. Cinderblock growled and raised his other arm to get a better grip on the vault that was now lifting him off the ground and up into the air. Gizmo simply responded to all this with a "What the krud?!" before leaping off and extending his spider legs to prevent himself from smashing into the pavement fifteen feet below.
All four of the titans then appeared to their left while Jinx leapt down from a building onto the side walk on the opposite side of the street from the Hive Five.
"Oh look!" said Gizmo. "It's that snot-brained traitor!" The self-proclaimed leader of the group then turned to his team mates and proclaimed "She's mine!" before leaping at his former friend.
Robin stopped his bike and used the momentum to leap twenty feet right into the middle of the Billy clones. Though he was outnumbered eight to one, Billy's lack of combat skills or agility meant that highly acrobatic Robin could probably beat him no matter how many Billies there where. As he spun and flipped through the air, Billies went flying everywhere.
Mammoth, the group's strongman, charged at the titan's strongman, Cyborg, while See-more ran to confront Starfire. Raven had disappeared into the air with Cinderblock.
Cyborg ran towards Mammoth, but instead of colliding, Mammoth shoved Cyborg to the side and continued towards his precious car. "Oh no, you don't!" He then used a sonic blast to shatter the asphalt right in front of Mammoth. The inattentive oaf tripped, flipped over and landed face-first into the asphalt. As he got up, Cyborg ran up behind him and using a maneuver Robin had taught him, he grabbed Mammoth and flung him away from his car and back into the middle of the fray. "Martial arts are even more awesome when you can lift hundreds of tons with your pinky. Booyah!"
Jinx prepared to leap out of the way of Gizmo, but instead of landing right on top of her, he landed in the middle of the three-lane street in front of her and stopped. "Hey there, you snot-brained traitor."
"Oh, hey twerp." Gizmo clearly didn't like the sudden insult, but he quickly forgot about it to continue with his planned rhetoric. "Where's your boyfriend, that snotty brat that you backstabbed us for!"
"Oh, I decided not to bring him with. I figured you wouldn't like it, it would be just outright sad to see you cry like a baby when you look like one, and besides, he would've made it way too easy!"
"Oh, that does it!" He tried to charge at her, but she pointed a finger from each hand at the knee joints of his front most spider legs, sending a tiny pink bolt at them. The legs came apart at the knees, causing Gizmo to fall and hit his face on the asphalt.
"You know that machines are no match for me Gizmo. The fact that you even tried just shows how dumb you are."
"Oh shut your trap, krud for brains!"
"Are we throwing a temper tantrum now?" she clicked her tongue a few times.
"Hey, here's an idea. Why don't you betray your new friends and rejoin us? We have a whole bank vault just for us and that stone-brained ogre. He shouldn't be too hard to scam."
"Trying to bribe me now? No thank you, and besides," she bent over and placed her hands on her knees, "at least I can feel good about myself doing this."
"Ooze brains!" a laser gun came out of the back of his backpack, but Jinx, with a tiny pink bolt, caused it to short circuit. His backpack then made a sound like it was shutting down; Gizmo frantically worked his controls but it didn't respond. "It's not fair!" He then slammed his now useless controller down and started pounding the ground with his hands and feet like a baby. "Not fair not fair not fair!"
Meanwhile, See-more had stopped in front of Starfire as she lowered herself to the ground, her hands and eyes glowing green. "Hey beautiful, remember me?" He then started turning the dial on his helmet. "I'm the man with x-ray vision!" Starfire immediately responded to this by firing lasers from her eyes directly into See-more's single eye, completely shattering it and destroying his helmet. He screamed as he fell backwards.
"You talk too much!" Starfire snapped at him.
Robin, despite his martial prowess, was starting to have problems. No matter how many Billies he beat up there was always more. And his acrobatics were causing him to get disoriented, and the fact that all his foes looked exactly the same didn't help lessen his growing confusion. Eventually he tripped up and landed on his side, after he misjudged where the ground was, and all the Billies attempted to dog pile on him. But Starfire swept over and began tossing starbolts all over the area surround her boyfriend. The Billies weren't expecting this and went down quickly, all of them yelling out in surprise with the same voice.
"Everybody, stop!" Raven suddenly yelled. Everyone stopped fighting and looked up to see Raven had returned with a grin on her face and her hands outstretched.
"What do you want, you snotty-nosed witch!"
She crossed her arms behind her back. "Cinderblock just let go." And like it was a cue, there was a loud whistling sound as the shadow of the clumsy behemoth started to grow larger incredibly fast.
Gizmo and the Billies screamed, Robin and Jinx leapt out of the way, Raven shielded herself, and Cyborg threw the distracted Mammoth onto his back five feet away as Starfire flew by and grabbed him to get her giant friend out of harm's way. All this happened within the half a second before Cinderblock impacted the ground, sending dirt, asphalt, and the Hive Five flying in all directions.
Once the dust settled, you could see what had happened to everyone.
Cinderblock was lying unconscious in his own impact crater, which was as wide as the road.
Billy was knocked unconscious, and thus there was only one of him now.
Gizmo ended up flying through the window of a display case and landing, ironically, in a baby's crib. He wasn't able to climb out of the crib because of the weight of his backpack, his lack of fitness, and the fact that he was just too mad to think straight. He started shaking the crib and screaming his childish substitutes for curse words. Jinx decided to make fun of the fact that he really did look like a baby where he was, after which he became so furious with her that he started screaming like a madman, even though it actually made him look even more like a baby.
Mammoth and See-more came to shortly before the police arrived. Cyborg and Robin quickly grabbed them and held their arms behind their back.
After she lowered the vault back to the ground, she moved it back into the bank and placed it back where it was before Cinderblock came in and ripped it out.
The police put Billy into a locker-sized box as fast as they could before he came to and started multiplying again. They also pulled Cinderblock into a truck specifically designed for him with massive winches. Cyborg led Mammoth into a truck and Robin led See-more him. See-more stumbled the whole way due to the fact that he couldn't see through his busted helmet.
A cop lifted Gizmo out of his crib and carried him to a police car while he continued to hammer his fists and scream. Jinx just laughed at the poor, pathetic, little man, so hard she cried.
"Anyhow," she said after she wiped the tears from her eyes, "where is that green one? You know, the one who turns into animals? I don't know his name; we used to always give you guys mean nicknames."
"Do you mean Beast Boy?" Starfire said. "He slept over."
"Huh?" Jinx looked at her confused.
"She means he overslept." Robin said. "She's from another planet, English isn't her first language."
"Oh." Jinx used to think she was just stupid, but she decided not to mention that. After all, she was a villain to them up until recently.
"Speaking of which," said Cyborg, "I wonder if he's gotten up yet? He's probably wondering through the tower trying to figure why I haven't made breakfast." He lifted his arm and looked at his monitor to see where Beast Boy's communicator was now. His face suddenly changed to concern. "Ah man, BB…"
Robin looked at him inquisitively, then lowered his head in disappointment and let out a deep sigh. "What is he doing now?" He crossed his arms. "Is he playing with my stuff again…?"
"No." Cyborg then turned his head to look at Robin. "He's in Terra's tomb."
