INTRO

"TITANS… GO…!" cried Robin.

Slade had been caught trying to break the security of the Military center, but tripped the alarm, and was now on the run all over the base. "Run Titans…" he hissed, "Catch me if you can…!"

Copy-Cat was able to read Slade's mind, which could only mean, "Yes… there is no other alternative. It is him…!" he cried. It was the real Slade, and not a robot.

Robin was determined to get him, but as the Titans chased him out of the base, Copy-Cat's foresight was warning him of danger. "Starfire… Look out!"

Starfire turned to face him, but that's when she was nearly shot down by a flame-stream. She fell from the air, into Cyborg's arms, "Yo', What the heck was that?" he wondered.

All the Titans turned, and out from the shadows came a flaming monster, one that the original five Titans all recognized too well. "No…!" cried Robin.

"He's back…!" growled Raven.

The flames disappeared showing that White-Monster that the Titans were never able to capture and bring to jail. "Dude…!" cried Beast-Boy.

Slade however saw this to his advantage, "Well… it seems an old friend of yours has returned." he mocked, "I shall take my leave so you may all catch up."

He began to dash off, but Robin wasn't about to let Slade get away this time. "Copy-Cat, Terra… you come with me, the rest of you deal with THAT…!" he ordered.

Copy-Cat and Terra nodded, and BB kissed Terra's cheek before she went off. "Be careful, Babe."

His wife smiled at him before she headed off with Robin and Copy-Cat. This left the other Titans to face the White Monster. "Let's get him!" growled Cyborg.

Beast-Boy went first and changed into a T-Rex, charging right at the monster, and tail-whipping him into a wall. The creature saw this to his advantage and mater-merged with the bricks. "Oh, no you don't…!" Raven hissed, "Azarath… Metrione… ZINTHOS…!"

She used her powers on the many garbage cans near the wall and bombarded the area the creature was in forcing him to emerge, but still with the walls element, making him hard to see.

"Take this…!" Starfire thundered as she unleashed her furry of star-bolts. Cyborg even assisted her by firing his shoulder-missiles. The monster was hit, and looked a little weary, but not defeated yet.

"It refuses to admit defeat." cried Star.

Beast-Boy clenched his fists, "Well it better…!" and he changed into a rhino, and charged. The monster got hit hard in his chest and crashed into a dripping water drain, allowing him to merge with the water and retreat to the sewers.

"He's getting' away…!" cried Cyborg. So the four of them dove into the sewers attempting to find the monster.

…

Elsewhere, Robin, Copy-Cat, and Terra had Chased Slade all the way into town. "You're not getting away from us!" Terra roared as she sealed off every exit with rock-walls.

Slade didn't seem worried at all. "Child… you underestimate your former mentor." he hissed at her. "You really should have chosen to keep you're life without the Titans."

He was referring to Terra's experience with "Things Change" and all the horrid things she did to herself and to Beast-Boy. "GRR…! AAH…!" and she went berserk bombarding him with rocks and boulders.

Slade wasn't able to dodge them all, and got slammed hard by a huge boulder. This left him open for Robin and Copy-Cat to engage him in battle. "Get him…!" cried Robin as he weld his metal-staff.

"Wipe him out…!" added Copy-Cat as he extended his X-Men claws.

Two on One, and Slade managed to match them both against him, except for the fact that since he wasn't a robot, and was the real deal, Copy-Cat could red his mind and outwit him.

"You do not stand a chance against my foresight Slade." he growled. "Surrender now while you can…!"

Slade simply sniggered, "Hmm, mm… I have not even begun to fight."

With three Titans battling Slade, and the other four in the sewers going for the White Monster. This battle was only heating up.

No one knew how it happened, but both Slade, and the White Monster had gotten away. Robin was furious. "We were close…! So close…!" he slammed the road with his fists in shame.

Starfire approached her husband and place a hand on his shoulder which calmed him. The Titans decided to just let it go for now, and head back to the Tower.
