Chapter 1

"Teen Titans"

**

A wolf started digging in the ground near the ocean with a teen boy sitting down in the sand. He watched the wolf with amusement as a clump of dirt was thrown into the air and skimmed her tail making the wolf jump and start growling looking around. The teen boy laughed and then the wolf looked at him.

"What's so funny, Zero? If you'd take our missions seriously then you'd be the same way even if a fly landed on you."

"Who says that this is a mission? You were the one that gave the both of us to track down John Grayson's grave."

"Do you even listen to me? I said that we are searching for Ben Wilson. He has information of Bruce Wayne and I need it fast."

"Why though?"

"You know nothing about me, Zero. I don't think that you should know more about me right now."

The wolf looked at Zero and then looked up. A flock of birds flew

up ahead towards a giant T-Tower. Zero got up and looked at the wolf.

"So, Hawk, do you know where Ben Wilson is exactly?"

The wolf changed to a human girl and stood up looking at Zero.

"I think I know who knows him. All we need to do is get to that tower over there."

"The T shaped tower?"

"Yes."

Hawk nodded and then Zero and she walked over right across from the tower. Hawk looked at Zero and then hovered in the air. She hovered over the water with Zero flying right behind her.

When they reached the ground Hawk went over to the doorbell.

"Are you sure you want to do that, Hawk?"

Zero asked. From what the two have learned over their little heroic battles in many places doorbells were a dangerous weapon. Hawk smiled at Zero and he sighed. Just when Hawk pushed the doorbell a boxing glove hit her in the face. Hawk fell to the ground in pain. Then garlic fell on her and Hawk started sneezing uncontrollably.

"Hawk, are you ok?"

"Yea, I'm just dandy. Who knew that someone could install a boxing glove in their doorbell? From everyone we fight and all of those doorbell accidents nothing like this has happened."

"And what about your allergy with garlic?"

Hawk sneezed and Zero laughed helping Hawk up. The door opened to show a guy that looked like a Traffic Light and a guy that looked like a Christmas tree.

"Who's the vampire here?"

The green one asked and Hawk's eyes widened. She coughed and then looked at the two boys.

"Well I did press the doorbell. I should have known though from our latest experiences with doorbells. I'm Hawk and this is my friend Zero. I need some answers."

"Are you the press or something? How'd you get over here without a boat?"

"Ever heard of something called hovering, floating, or flying, Sherlock Jones?"

"So you guys are superheroes?"

"Well, not really. We stop in certain places and the things that I need to know is do you have any information on Ben Wilson?"

The walking Traffic Light froze. The Christmas tree didn't seem to mind.

"I'll go look him up, Robin."

The Christmas tree left and then Hawk looked at the walking Traffic Light.

"My name is Robin, the one you just saw Beast Boy. Do you want to come in?"

"Sure."

Hawk smiled and Robin cleared his throat clearly not able to get over Hawk's charms. Hawk's clear blue eyes shone in the light.

Hawk and Zero followed Robin and then stopped in a living room. Everything was huge! Beast Boy was at a huge computer with Ben Wilson on the screen.

"Why do you want to know Ben Wilson? Do you have any clue who he is?"

"I need some questions answered."

Hawk replied and then three people who didn't notice them looked up.

"Glorious! Hello new friends! What brings you to our loveable home?"

"Um…Well I just need to know where Ben Wilson lives."

Hawk said to the alien girl. Then the alien girl looked at Zero and smiled.

"I am Starfire and you two are?"

"I'm Zero and this is Hawk. We just need to find someone. Then we are leaving right, Hawk?"

Hawk nodded and Zero smiled at her.

"Who do you wish to seek?"

"Ben Wilson."

"This Ben Wilson seems like a nice guy. If you two wish to seek him."

"I don't know what your leader thinks of Ben Wilson. I never met him. Hawk has."

Hawk looked at Zero and then at Starfire.

"You have met this Ben Wilson?"

"My adopted parents always fought him."

"Then why do you wish to seek him out if he and your parents of adoption have fought him? Has he done the actions of the murder on them?"

"No. He's the only one that can actually help me."

Hawk said getting annoyed by Starfire. Zero seemed to notice and then he hit Hawk.

"Beast Boy was it? Where is Ben Wilson?"

"No one knows. Do you know who he is?"

"No."

"He's our enemy. His name we know him by is Slade."

"I never heard of him."

Zero said and then Hawk was walking towards the door.

"Thanks for your help. I think I'll go and find him myself."

"Wait, Hawk! Why don't you two show us your powers?"

"My powers are not for hero work. I only go when it comes time that it is either me or Zero to kill someone. I'm always the one to kill that person. Watch Zero and his powers. He's a natural born pro in being a hero."

Hawk growled and left the tower. She stood in a park looking at everything going on. Then a white haired, white beard, one eyed man caught her intention.

He smiled at her and Hawk walked over to him.

"Ben Wilson?"

"Am I in trouble? I don't recall doing anything to you."

"I need you to answer one of my questions."

"Oh really, Black Bear, what is it then?"

"Do you know where Bruce Wayne is?"

"Why do you want him? Did he do something to you?"

"Let's just say that I hate him and want to kill him. Now where is he right now?"

"In Jump City, he is heading towards Titans Tower."

"Thank you, Ben."

Hawk headed towards Bruce Wayne's scent and stopped seeing him eating a salad. Hawk walked over to him and looked at him.

"Bruce Wayne?"

"Hello, miss, what is it that you want?"

"Do you remember me?"

"I don't recall seeing such a mask."

"Maybe this will refresh your memory."

Hawk pulled down her neck collar showing Bruce Wayne two puncture wounds.

"Five years ago I was in trouble in Gotham City. Batman came too late to even help me. I was the ten year old bitten, Bruce. You could have come and helped me sooner."

"I thought you were dead! The doctors said you died."

"All vampires are dead, Bruce."

Hawk spat out at Bruce.

At first Bruce had a shocked expression on his face until he gained his posture back.

"What do you want, Hawk?"

"I want you dead, Bruce."

Hawk said and then she was thrown to the ground.

"Snap out of it, Hawk! You don't want to kill Bruce!"

Robin held down Hawk and she looked at him with wide eyes.

"What are you doing?"

"I'm stopping you from killing him."

"Why? I thought you moved on from defending him, Robin!"

Hawk growled at Robin and he got up. He looked at Bruce and Hawk got up dusting herself. She looked at Robin, his team, and Zero. Hawk winced from the death glare she was receiving from Zero.

"Zero, you don't understand."

"I don't understand what, Hawk? How much you want to kill Bruce

Wayne?"

"You don't understand what I have been through! You don't even know what I am!"

Hawk shouted and then something exploded nearby. The Titans and Zero's eyes widened in shock and then Bruce walked over to Hawk's side.

"She's right. You guys have no clue what happened to her."

"Get away from me, Loser. You're the one that could have prevented what has happened to me!"

Hawk walked away from Bruce and face to face with Robin. He seemed to be trying to see what Hawk was thinking. It didn't really work because Hawk's eyes were empty and she had a mask on so it really didn't help.

"You don't know me. You'll never know who I really am. Don't even bother trying to find me. That goes for your team."

Hawk walked away and Zero stepped forward.

"You're not going to follow me, Zero. You don't need to worry about me anymore."

Hawk walked away from them and Zero looked heartbroken.
