Red X scaled the museum wall he was anxious to get this job over with and soon. As he finally made it to the top he ran over to the ceiling window and cut a hole through it he finally removed it safely from the top when he did he placed on the roof floor attached his grappling hook and scaled down. He eventually jumped to the floor as he did he a light shined on him and a metallic cage sprung open on him trapping him inside.

The Teen Titan's suddenly appeared. "It's over Red X!" Robin shouted at him. "Well not bad kid so tell me did your mommy make this for you?" Red X said this in an unusual over cocky tone of voice. "I made this you punk!" Cyborg shouted enraged by the disrespect this man had given him "Calm down all that matters is that we now have him." Robin said as he tried to reassure his friend.

Red X then raised his hands as the police arrive and point their guns at him trapped in the caged he then said sarcastically "Well kid I have to hand it to you I thought I was going to succeed but now I see that crime never pays." He then dropped a smoke bomb which fell out of the cage and blew up covering the entire building with smoke. Raven screamed "Azarath Metrion Synthos!" after that the entire smoke cleared and the Teen Titans found everyone knocked out.

A few hours later that wintery night at the docks X was meeting with his buyer he then he was getting anxious until a man in a trench coat and bandages showed up. "Hello Hush I brought the artifact as you requested the Egyptian eye why do you need it?" X spoke in a cocky tone. "Well to be honest this has more to do with your mother Red X I am cleaning the mess up that I started six years." Hush said this to him in a cold and callous manner as he took a gun and fired it at Red X sending him into the cold icy water. Hush took out his cell and said "The job is done."

Flash back Red X's POV…

God this sucks I'm drifting to the bottom of ice water it's kind of like The God Father or The Sopranos yes I like mafia, crime and drama movies. No wait it reminds me of Max Payne and GOD Do I feel pain!

People always think the Titans will protect them but they are wrong. Nobody talks about the bad side of Titan City because nobody cares it's where the lowest of the low hide. I once was a naive kid I thought truth and justice prevailed over evil. I was wrong.

I use to live in Gotham with my mother she was a reporter I forget which news paper. She had a fling with some rich guy way back and apparently he somehow manages to look after the city in the night. I never understood that I wish I did before she... any way we moved to Titan City when I was ten for a while everything was good and then when I came home from school I found her shot dead in the I didn't know who did or why but I was determined to find out at any cost.

When my mother died no one took me in I was left on my own. As I got older I was shoved from foster home to foster home in the city. On my thirteenth birthday I finally had enough so I ran away and became a street kid. I began to hustle people on the street so I could make a few bucks every now and then my goal was to become as feared as The Joker but as wealthy as Lex Luthor.

In time I would have it all I just needed the muscle and sure enough I got it I soon joined a street gang called the red skulls and eventually became the leader. There was only one problem The Teen Titans. No matter what I did those punks would show up to foil my plans. They crippled my shipping routes, arm dealing operations even my legitimate butcher shop went out of business because the green one incited a vegi burger movement!

I lost everything in one night because of them I was back to being a fifteen year old street punk but then a miracle happened I saw a man in a costume battling them I the costume had had a red x on the mask and chest and I knew from moment I stood watching from the window of that chemical plant that I was meant to have it.

After digging around for information I found the truth Robin was Red X. I was infuriated by that. Why did he get the power of the suit? It should have been mine! Soon after discovering it I left for Titans Island it was not an easy swim but I was determined. All I had to do was wait for them to leave there home to play football I then used an electromagnetic pulse to disarm all the security I then used blueprints supplied to me by my inside man to find the suit I then got out quick and that is how it all began but I wonder if this is how it ends?
