Disclaimer: I don't own Teen Titans or Dungeons & Dragons, so don't sue me. I do however enjoy playing D&D, and have some experience as a Dungeon Master who uses two characters at the same time.
This crossover came to me in a moment where my Overdriving Imagination started up on me earlier today. I like it, and am planning to use it as a campaign setting, but would like some opinions in which I can see if it is relatively exciting or not. Also, the name of the main character will probably not shock you, but if it does, the pattern is like camouflage, and that freaks me out. (the camouflage, I mean. No one should fall for that stuff at any distance.) One more thing before I start, this is rated for teens because writing curses makes me nervous for some reason. I do, but it takes effort on my part. Love scenes are also difficult for me because I often try to imagine seeing it myself, and that causes me to veer off my intended course. Anywho, anyone who is under the age of this storys rating, leave now or I will pull my standard Big Daddy technique on you, and you don't even want to imagine what that would do to your carpet. Away!

A young man was walking to his home after a hard day of cleaning shelves at a store. 'Hard work but somebody has to do it. Besides, nothing beats the sight of smiling people as they find what they need.' He walked up to the back door, having lost
the key to the front over a decade ago. It was winter and the man couldn't wait to get inside to warm up. 'Love winter, love
the cold, hate frostbite.' He was looking for the key in his wallet and was suprised when he couldn't find it. "Odd. Must've
left it on the counter this morning. Oh well, got a spare at least." He went around to the back of his house and pulled out the hidden spare key, one of many. He was going around to the door when a strange light flashed from around the corner.
'Dang! This is going to be very, very bad.' He pressed himself to the wall and slowly and as silently as he could manage, moved to the corner and peeked around it. He saw a strange creature looking around with its back to him. He wondered to
himself if he could try to make it to the other side and hop the fence and go to the neighbors but doubted it since one
slight obstacle was in the way. Namely, the fact that he couldn't hop the six foot fence without alerting the creature.
He then heard it talk out loud to itself. "Where is the young warrior Gene? I must kill him before the portal opens and
takes him to his rightful dimension. Should he gain his rightful powers, he would be far more difficult to stop." The
creature took a map from a pouch in front of it, still with its back turned to Gene. 'What in the world is it talking about.
Portals and powers? I got nothing like that.' He looked down hoping to find something to defend himself with. He spotted
a piece of rebar on the ground. 'That should do it. If that thing wants to kill me, its going to do it with a lump on its
head and a couple of broken ribs if I can manage it.' He picked up the iron rod as silently as possible. 'Thank the council
I can be so friggin' quiet.' He crept up behind the creature, raised the bar, and swung it as hard as he could. The monster
had only seconds to register what hit him before he fell to the ground, out like a candle in one hit. Gene was suprised,
but smiling. "Sorry about that, but if the options are die or fight, you would have done the same pal. Behind him, another
flash of light appeared. This, coupled with fresh snow blinded Gene momantarily. He turned around, still gripping the
freezing cold metal in his hand. When he opened his eyes there was a glowing circle in the air. 'What the heck is this?'
He walked around it and saw that it was flat. 'I know I'm going to regret this in the morning, but I have to do this. If
not for science, then for the thing that is going to wake up madder than a long tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs.'
He mentally slapped him self for the lame reference. "Here goes." He stepped back ten feet, put the key back in its place,
and ran forward as fast as he could.
In Jump City, the Teen Titans were in a bit of a bind. Doctor Light, the normally less than dangerous villain, had
managed to make a deal with Slade, promising to defeat the Titans and bring him a suitable apprentice. Slade provided
Light with several hundred of his robots. Slade even parted with ten of his favorites, the Sladebots, the ones that looked
like him. Normally the Titans could handle Slades robots even if it included three of the Sladebots, but they were now losing
badly. Cyborgs left arm was completely destroyed and his left eye was cracked to the point he could hardly see with it. Robin
had two broken ribs and his utility belt only had two staffs left. Raven was unable to concentrate enough to lift anything
heavier than a shopping cart, while Starfire was so angry she couldn't even fly. Beast boy had broken one of his legs and
could only assume the forms of flying animals or those without legs. Jinx had shown up to try and help but was quickly
isolated from the others. Kid Flash had been thrown into a garbage truck and couldn't get out. The Titans were surrounded,
back to back, and were getting desperate. Robin was starting to succumb to his broken ribs and was having trouble keeping
his eyes focused. "It looks like this is it. It was an honor fighting alongside you all for so long." Robin had one more
trick left, A powerful bomb he had saved for an occasion like this. "Robin, you aren't thinking of using that bomb are you?"
Robin pulled a small device from his cape and threw it at the largest concentration of robots he could. "Already did Cy.
See you on the other side." Robin dropped his staff, signaling defeat. Before the bomb could hit the ground however,
a large ring of light swallowed it. "What the?" Robin couldn't finish his sentence as the ring lit in the center with
a silver light. When the portal disappeared, a young man in a blue coat was running toward Jinx. "Crap! Heads up pink hair!"
Jinx turned and saw him running toward her, and she barely jumped out of the way in time. She saw he had a piece of metal
in his right hand, and so did the robot he swung at.
The portal had the unexpected effect of making all but the ten Sladebots shut down, and the robot Gene swung at was one of
them. This one however was caught so off guard the the rebar made perfect contace with its head, damaging it enough
to shut it down completely. "That was too easy." Gene looked around and saw that the girl was safe. "Are you okay? I hope I didn't startle you too much. Normally I travel by bus, but when you see a glowing portal, you owe it to yourself to go in." Jinx smiled, though at first she was nervous. "I'm okay, but my allies are in trouble. I have to help them."
Robin picked up his staff again and was poking one of Slades robots to see why it had shut down. "That portal must have
drained their batteries." Robin looked over at where Jinx stood and saw the remaining nine Slade bots closing in on her
and a newcomer. "Jinx! Watch out!" Before he could say more, Doctor Light decided to attack. "I don't know what happened,
but I know that you all will soon be 'out like a light.'" He laughed at his stupid joke as always, this time confident
that he could win with the Titans in such a weak state. Little did he remember that even when weakened, the Titans were
still strong enough to fight back. Raven flung a stone at him, which stopped his laughing. He started charging his light
guns when Robin hit him in the side of the head with his staff. This instantly knocked Light out. "He should really think
about changing careers." Robin looked back to Jinx and the new guy.
"I don't think we're going to make it through this. Dang." Gene knew that his rebar was not likely to save him from these
robots. "Methinks ye be right missy." Gene knew she was probably right when he remembered the creatures words. "But I ain't
ready to meet my lords and ladies yet. The council granted me the chance to help you, so I am going to see if my theory is
right." He held the rebar out level in his right hand and moved his left hand from one end to the other and the rebar
transformed into a sword, a katana to be specific. "Not much like a proper one, but the theory has been proven."
Jinx was in awe. Gene looked at her. "Get ready, they might attack any second. If we make it through this, I'd like to get to
know you better. What so you say?" Gene swung his sword at one of the bots that attacked, and cut it cleanly in half, but
broke the tip of the blade off. Jinx smiled. 'Any reason to live is a good one I guess.' "Sure. I'm Jinx. Who are you?"
Jinx threw a hex bolt at one of the Sladebots and hit it squarely in the chest. "Name's Gene. Nice to meet you." Gene turned around as Jinx ducked, the blade going into the bots chest. This robot fell over, but the sword went with it, having lodged itself between two gears. Gene was now without a weapon. "Let's see." Gene held his hands like he was still holding a sword.
Jinx was going to point this out when a blade of fire erupted from his hands. "Sweet. I thought that would work. Not sure
how, but this one won't likely break. I hope." He removed his left hand and a second blade formed in it. "You robots are
scrap now." Jinx was stunned. Magic like this was ridiculously high level. "How?" Jinx wasn't prepared for Genes answer
however. "No clue, but why ask questions when you can do stuff like this so easily?" Gene rushed three of the robots at once
and cut all of them in half, then into fourths. Jinx returned to her senses and struck one of the remaining four with another
hex bolt. The machine raised its hand when it just fell apart. The remaining three scattered, but one suddenly flew skyward
and came down on another one. Gene had been testing his powers. "Gust of wind, eh? Sweet as sugar and honey."
The last one had ran toward Robin, who threw the staff at it. The Sladebot caught the staff and was preparing to kill Robin
with it. Gene held out his right hand and ran forward, when he disappeared. Jinx was confused until she looked over to see
what was happening in front of Robin. Gene had reappeared in front of Robin and caught the staff and ripped it away from the
fake Slade. Gene slammed the staff into the top of the RoboSlades head hard enough to dent it in two inches. "Down." The
robot collapsed to its knees. "And." It fell on its face. "Out." Gene turned to Robin and held the staff out to him. "I
believe this is yours."
Hope you like it. I am not sure how long I worked on it but it feels like at least two hours. I am going to hit the hay now. But before that, this is the second story I put out today. I feel proud, like I just can't wait to see how you like it. Don't forget to leave a review please. Also, look for a story by Renatamer called 'Axel and Rena'. It is quite the master piece, in fact the very story that convinced me to author all of my stories. If you like furry stories or just need inspiration, just read this, but be warned, only read if you are eighteen or older.
