In Which Technus and Control Freak Meet and Try Take Over the Tower
Cyborg waddled into the living room of his lower-case T Teen Titan's Tower.
He was very proud of his tower. To have a curve in a building like he had, was great architecture. And, it was full of all the best technology Cyborg could build. Yup, he was proud of his tower.
~~Elsewhere~~
"My name is Control Freak, and I can never defeat my arch nemesis, Beastboy of the Teen Titans!"
"Hello, Control Freak," The room of Villains Anonymous participants replied.
Villains traveled to Jump City from around the world to sit down and talk about their feelings. Today was the day they were going to talk about their arch nemesis's.
"My name is Technus, Master of all Technology! And I am always defeated by my arch nemesis, Danny Phantom!"
"Hello, Technus."
"Now, Control Freak, Technus. You guys are new to the group," Harley Quinn said.
"We welome you whole-heartedly," Poison Ivy continued.
"Would you like to share anything else about yourselves?"
"The Teen Titans took my remote. And they won't give it back!" Control Freak cried, breaking down and sobbing.
Blackfire leaned over and patted Control Freak on the shoulder, attempting to comfort him.
"Blackfire! How are you?" Harley Quinn asked. "How are they kids?"
"My sister is staying over and babysitting," Blackfire said, drolly.
"They are so cute!" Poison Ivy gushed.
"Yeah yeah, whatever," Blackfire said.
"Anyways, what about you, Technus?" Harley Quinn changed the topic back to what they had gathered there for.
"My nemesis, Danny Phantom, always captures me and sends me back to the Ghost Zone! It's not fun there! There is no technology! Besides Skulker, but he scares me!" Technus shouted.
"Do you always have to shout?" Professor Ivo complained.
"And who are you, puny mortal, to think you can tell Technus what to do?" Technus replied.
Suddenly, there were police sirens sounding from outside! It was the cops!
"How did they find us so quickly?" Harley Quinn complained.
"Okay, meeting adjourned! We'll send you the address of the next place!" Poison Ivy said, jumping up and shooing everyone out.
Everyone skedaddled as fast as they could. Blackfire flew through the ceiling, knocking bricks and plaster everywhere! One of Ivo's creations jumped out of the shadows, picked him up, and ran off. All the villains disappeared a similar way. Well, except for Control Freak and Technus.
They stood around, watching everyone flee. They clearly didn't understand what was happening. They watched as police swarmed in. Technus and Control Freak only realized what was happening when the police jumped on Control Freak.
They tried to jump on Technus, but he just phased through them. He floated off to the side as Control Freak was taken away.
"Hey! You guys! Aren't you gonna help me!?" Control Freak shouted.
When the police cleared out, Technus was left alone. He floated there for a few minutes, and then slowly followed Control Freak and the police. He wasn't sure what he was doing, but hey. He seemed to know technology too. Maybe they could try to take control over Amity Park together!
~~Elsewhere, in the back of a police squad truck~~
"Curse you Beast Boy of the Teen Titans!" Control Freak shouted. "You know, even though you had nothing to do with this."
"Do you always talk to yourself?" Technus phased through the side of the truck.
"Who are you again?" Control Freak asked, astonished.
"I am Technus! Master of all technology!" Technus shouted.
"Quiet! Keep it down!" Control Freak attempted to hush Technus.
"Why are you in the back of this funny looking van?" Technus asked him, still shouting.
Control Freak groaned. "Because I was captured!"
"That's unfortunate!"
"Are you gonna help me out or what?" Control Freak asked. Well, it was more like begged.
"And what is in it for me?" Technus asked.
"Look, just do this, and we'll figure out the details later?" Control Freak bargained.
"As you wish!" Technus grabbed Control Freak. "You are very overweight, you not-so-puny-human!"
"Hey! I'm big boned!" Control Freak complained.
Technus lifted Control Freak and the phased through the side of the truck. The flew high over the city, and finally stopped in a cave high above the city.
"Why'd you stop here? There's no technology!" Control Freak complained.
"We are doing the 'hiding away'!" Technus said excitedly.
"Have you ever done this before?" Control Freak asked.
"Well, no," Technus said. He was still shouting!
"Ugh! Amateur!" Control Freak complained.
"Hey, can our author call you CF, because it is much easier than calling you Control Freak?" Technus asked suddenly. He looked as if he were possessed.
"Uh... sure?" CF replied.
"Good," was all Technus said.
"Anyways, what are we going to do?" CF asked, trying to get back on track.
"We can team up and try to take over Amity Park!" Technus shouted.
"Why Amity Park? Why not Jump City?" CF asked.
"Because Danny Phantom is not here!"
CF was silent. "Spoiler alert," he whispered.
"What was that you just said puny human?"
CF looked left and right. "Spoiler alert. Wraith is Danny Phantom!"
"Wait, Wraith, as in the guy with a battle axe?"
"Yes."
"Wraith, as in the guy dressed like the Assassin's Creed assassin?"
"Yes!"
"Wraith, as in the guy that our author slightly obsesses over?"
"Yes! How many things does this guy do?!"
Technus was silent for a minute. "I think that is all."
"And we are now going to get back to our topic."
CF and Technus sat back and tried to decide what to do. CF waddled around and Technus floated. It was their form of pacing.
"You like technology, right?" CF suddenly asked Technus.
"I do."
"And you know what is full of technology?"
Technus thought for a minute. "Fenton Works?"
"What? We're talking about in Jump City!"
"Oh. The Best But store?"
"No, idiot! The Titans' Tower!"
"And is Wraith slash Danny Phantom there?"
"Yes," CF confirmed.
"Then we shall take over Titans' Tower!"
And it was decided.
~~Elsewhere, AKA Titans' Tower~~
Wraith had just entered the main room of the Titans Tower when Cyborg started to act strange.
"Yo, Cyborg? You okay man?" He asked.
"I am not Cyborg! I am Technus!" He suddenly shouted, turning towards Wraith.
"Are you serious?" Wraith asked, glaring at Cyborg/Technus.
Suddenly, a large figure burst through the front window. "It is I, Control Freak!" The figure shouted.
The other Teen Titans burst through the door in the back, ready for action. Or, at least Robin was ready for action.
"What's going on here?" He shouted.
Wraith just shook his head. "One of my ghosts had taken over Cyborg and some fat guy just came crashing through the window."
"Aww, we just put in a new one," Jinx complained.
"Look, I can take care of this," Wraith told the team.
"We're a team, we'll do this together!" Robin argued.
"I know how Technus works! It's not gonna take that long!"
"But we've fought CF before! We know his moves!"
While Robin and Wraith argued, with the other Titans on the sidelines, Cyborg walked over to CF. "Uh, could you not be him? It's creeping me out," CF complained.
"He is made of technology. It only makes sense that I control him!" Technus replied.
"Well, I say that we ditch him and you hep me take over the tower!"
"I cannot embody the tower! Besides, I am much more comfortable controlling the creator!"
"Must you always shout?!"
"ENOUGH!" Raven shouted.
"Yeah, are we just all gonna argue? Cuz I wanna kick a little butt," Jinx said.
Wraith pulled out a Fenton Thermos and sucked Technus out of Cyborg's body. "Now that that's taken care of. Hey, Jinx, you wanna get some pizza?"
"Sure," Jinx grabbed Wraith's hand and they walked out as Cyborg began to beat CF up with Wraith's thermos.
"I'm gonna beat an idiot up with another idiot!" He cried.
AN: So, not sure what happened here, honestly. It was going good, then it kinda went downhill? Like, I had the perfect chapter title planned, but nothing else. So, if it was awful, I apologize. I also apologize for it taking so long, as well as The Guardian. I just got back from Disneyland(got a great idea for another one of these episodes), and I've been going up and down with writer's block. So, here this is. Review, tell me what you think, give me ideas, etc. I'll try to get a chapter up for The Guardian, but it looks like I might actually have more luck with The Go Between right now, if that makes any sense. Until next time!
