A year has passed since the Titans first assembled, however a new villain has emerged who creates havoc the Titans have never experienced. But is this villain truly evil, or simply misguided? RaeBB, RobStar, CyBee. Reviews encouraged!

A Midnight Visit

Two days, that's how old she was. 3 months ago, he'd began planning her kidnapping. Tonight, he'd execute it.

A dark figure climbed up to the third story of the Dailey's Mansion. Their newborn daughter lay in her crib, the nanny had just fallen asleep in the other room. The climber was immersed in complete shadow, using every little nook he could hold onto to progress. He was silent, he was invisible, he was a shadow itself.

Finally, he reached the window do the nursery. He slithered through the open window. Big mistake, Dailey, he thought. Your daughter's mine now. The lone figure gently lifted the tiny infant into his glove covered hands and looked at her in the light.

Her blond hair that was scarce everywhere except near her scrawny neck glowed beautifully beneath the full moon's rays. Her eyes remained shut despite the brightness, skin a fading pink. She was dressed in a sky blue one-sy, so small he couldn't fathom how small it would be to fold up every day. But he would learn soon, wouldn't he?

As he gazed at her, he began to speak softly, despite himself. "Ah, child, you will come to do great things. I foresee a magnificent world delivered by your hands. You shall rule it for me, and keep peace within it's walls, no tyranny to rip your family apart. We shall spread true happiness into a world unable to keep such a treasure by itself. Indeed, you are the answer to my prayers, a daughter whom cannot be taken away from me."

The child shifted in his hands, and he was surprised when she managed to lift her head up slightly. Not even his late son was able to do so at so young.

"Yes, you certainly are a prodigy, aren't you?" he cooed, something one wouldn't expect from the newly notorious super villain. "Your strength shall be used to it's potential, unlike what your parents would ever allow. Though we should be leaving now, I'm afraid we might wake someone."

The thief then leapt out of the window, landing in the shadows across the street, the golden-bronze of his mask illuminated in the moon light. He turned, his one good eye gazing back at the window thirty feet above. One day, he vowed, I'll teach you to jump from far greater heights my abilities allow.

13 years later the Teen Titans assembled. However, our story will truly begin a year after.
