TEEN TITANS- Back in Business
Teen Titans and related characters are property of DC Comics.
Jump City's old warehouse district was not somewhere people went at night. There was a good reason: Intergang. Late one night, a meeting was going on in one of the warehouses. The leader of Jump City's Intergang chapter was laying down terms with one of the most dangerous men on Earth- Slade Wilson.
"Mr. Mannhelm, is it too hard for a man to ask for help in this day and age?" Slade asked.
"And what do I get in return from you, Slade?" Bruno Mannhelm retorted.
"I've got nothing you want. Now, I need your men to aid me in bringing down the Teen Titans." Slade replied.
Bruno Mannhelm relished in the idea of bringing down the Teen Titans.
"Deal." Mannhelm announced.
LATER:
"And in related news, Striker's Island was attacked two days ago. Authorities believe the attack was designed as a cover for a jailbreak- as evidenced by the empty cell that held Livewire." The radio played.
Robin grumbled at this news. Why would anyone want Livewire out of prison? Or more importantly- who would want Livewire out of prison? But things were about to get worse.
In Blüdhaven, Floyd Newton (better known as "Deadshot") polished off another drink. His cohort, Waylon Morgan (better known to the general populace as "Killer Croc"), was gloomily staring out the window at the bar. Deadshot admitted to himself that he was just bored to tears. His guns had been unloaded for an unprecedented six weeks, Gotham's crime lords didn't need rivals to be shot, and the Batman had been ramping up patrols. Mercenary work was especially hard to find.
It was at that moment when a courier dropped off a package to the mercenary duo. The contents included bus tickets and a note. Deadshot scanned the note, and to his utter disbelief, he found it to be a contract. The world's greatest assassin let out a war whoop, leapt out of his chair, knocked his drink over, and prepared to leave Blüdhaven. Jump City was waiting- as was Slade.
Some time later, Livewire, Deadshot, Killer Croc, and several Intergang members were all at Slade's base of operations for a meeting. Slade motioned the meeting to begin.
"My fellow mercenaries and scum of the earth, I have assembled you here for one reason- the destruction of the Teen Titans. You will all be paid when you bring them down. You are free to use any methods as you see fit. Now go and bring them down." Slade announced.
