We don't own the Teen Titans But we wish we did.

Prologue

"Azarath Metrion Zinthos," Raven floated above the ground, her eyes closed in concentration. Because of this, she could not see the green Titan standing beside her. Nor could she see that he was gazing at her longingly.

"Raven?" Beast Boy spoke up tentatively.

"What?" she asked irritably, not opening her eyes.

"I was wondering if you wanted to do something?" Beast Boy asked her.

"What does Starfire want to do this time?" Raven asked with an irate sigh. "We better not be going to the mall again. The last time we went, she made me buy a dress."

"Really?" Beast Boy asked, intrigued. "A dress?"

"Getting off the subject," Raven growled.

"Oh," Beast Boy began to blush slightly. "Right." He paused. "Actually I was thinking that we could do something just the two of us."

"Are you asking me out on a date?" Raven asked him, raising an eyebrow.

"Maybe," Beast Boy's blush became more pronounced. Raven snorted.

"Beast Boy, I wouldn't be caught dead out on a date with you," she replied coldly. Tears filled Beast Boy's large deep-green eyes. "Now go away, I'm trying to meditate." Beast Boy's large pointed ears drooped, and he turned and began to shuffle away from the telekinetic Titan. "Azarath Metrion Zinthos." Raven returned to her meditation. She was interrupted again by the sound of the Tower's alarm going on. Raven sighed, and phased through the roof and into the Titan's living-room. "What's the problem?" She asked. Annoyed that her meditation had been interrupted again.

"Slade," Robin replied. He glared at the screen from behind his mask. On the screen, Slade's large image loomed over the Titans. Even though his face was completely covered with a mask, the villain seemed to be smirking at them. "He's attacking downtown." Robin explained. "He's got an army of Slade-bots with him."

"Oh man," Cyborg moaned. "What do you think he's got planned this time?"

"I don't know," Robin frowned. "But whatever it is, he won't get away with it."

"The Titans are late," Slade remarked softly to himself. "This is unlike them. Perhaps Robin is losing his touch."

"What do you want Slade?" the Boy Wonder demanded as the Titans came into view.

"Robin," Slade glanced at the team's leader. "I was beginning to think you weren't coming."

"Better late than never," Robin retaliated. "Titans go!" The Titans sprang into action. While the Titans began to work on the many Slade-bots, Slade advanced upon Beast Boy. The green Titan was surrounded by Slade-bots and didn't notice the villain advancing upon on him until it was too late. Slade raised a fist, and brought it down on the young man's head. The green Titan collapsed from the blow, and under his mask, Slade grinned.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"There are too many of them!" Starfire exclaimed. "How are we to win?"

"We keep fighting!" Robin replied, and kicked a nearby Slade-bot in the head. The Slade-bots advanced, and then hesitated. Abruptly, they turned and retreated.

"Uh, okay," Cyborg scratched his head.

"We are victorious," Starfire gushed, and did a victory loop in the air.

"Wait a minute," Raven looked around. "Where's Beast Boy?" Sure enough, their green team-mate was no where to be seen.

"I thought he was right behind me," Cyborg exclaimed.

"It looks like you thought wrong," Robin scowled. "You should have been paying closer attention to him."

"Me?" Cyborg asked. "In case you hadn't noticed, I was up to my ears in Slade-bots. Why couldn't you have kept a closer eye on him?"

"It's not my job to look after Beast Boy," Robin retaliated.

"But it's mine?" Cyborg's eye flashed.

"Stop!" Starfire pleaded. "No more mean talking."

"I was busy choreographing the attack," Robin ignored the alien princess. "I didn't have time to worry about Beast Boy. You were the one who saw him last, you were the one who should have been keeping an eye on him."

"Beast Boy's missing," Raven's monotone voice cut through the argument like a knife. "No amount of yelling will change that. So stop acting like idiots, and let's go home. He'll probably come back in the morning."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

But Beast Boy didn't come back the next morning. In fact, for three days the Titans continued to search for their friend without success. At the end of the third day, the Titans were delivered a DVD that had a sticky-note saying 'Play Me' attached to it. Robin put the DVD into the player, and the Titans crowded on the couch nervously. Slade's image crackled to life on the screen.

"Hello Titans," his soft voice was mocking. "Doubtless by now you've noticed that your friend is gone."

"What have you done with him Slade?" Robin shouted at the screen.

"Man, this is pre-recorded," Cyborg crossed his arms. "Yelling at it won't do anything." Robin glared at the robotic Titan.

"I just want to tell you not to bother," Slade continued. "Your friend belongs to me now. And there's absolutely nothing you can do about it."
