A/N: I am totally on a superhero kick. And I've been starting too many long term fanfics. Anyway, this'll work just like my httyd rewrites. I adore rewrites! If anyone knows of any good ones, just tell me! If you haven't watched the episodes in awhile, this the the episode where the Brain pretty much has most of the Titans frozen and Robin is captured. I was thinking, they could totally have played up the chess references more, and they should've waited to freeze Robin until last, as a grand finale, forcing him to watch as his friends are frozen. Yes, I am quite aware that something is seriously wrong with me. Honestly, I've never worked with such a diverse and massive cast of characters, so I hope this doesn't get choppy, sloppy, or bad. Beast Boy really shouldn't have been the main character there, Robin should've. Brain seems fascinated by Robin in the previous episode, comparing him to a King in chess, then just freezes him. Plus, I didn't like how panicked he looked while he was frozen. He should've been batglaring everyone to death. That would've been funny. Robin's my favorite character. In Young Justice and Teen Titans. On a side note, I like Slade better than Brain, Robin's my favorite character, I ship Star and Robin, and why the heck did they drop the apprentice thing?! Slade seems much more obsessive than just leaving Robin alone. Hmm, rewrite idea? If you want any episodes rewritten to focus more on Robin, please ask! Sorry about the huge author's note, and I'll try to update NOT an Elf soon! Cheers!

"You are merely pawns in a game, and you have played your part perfectly. There is nowhere you can hide, and there is nothing you can do to stop us. Each small victory brings us closer to an even greater prize. The elimination of an entire generation of heroes. And we owe it all to you, Robin. Your network has been crushed. Your friends have no way to communicate, or follow your commands. Together you may be formidable, but apart, you are lost, powerless, mine. You will fall, one by one. Who among you can possibly stop me now?" (Jeez, Brain has a bigger spiel than I did! Almost. Great, now I feel like a villain who monologues too much. I'm skipping over the whole 'Beast Boy rallies the troops, sneaks inside, and fails at fighting the bad guys' thing. Ain't nobody got time for that.)

Robin watched from where he stood near the Brain. Beast Boy, Herald, Mas, and a few others who had survived the initial attack had attacked the enemy base… and failed. What on earth was Beast Boy thinking? He knew the Brain had an army of super villains, why had he come charging through the front door?

When Beast Boy and his makeshift team had originally attacked, Robin had tried to fight the Brain despite his hands being cuffed, but Madame Rouge had restrained him. Now he was helpless as the last Titans were captured and lined up before the Brain.

The Brain turned around and said in his robotic, halting speech, "So, Robin, how does it feel to know these are the last Titans? You have failed. I am not sure what I will do to you once the others have been frozen. Should I freeze you too? Or keep you conscious?"

Robin glared at the Brain in his fury. He hadn't felt this helpless since… Slade. "It will never be over, Brain. The Justice League will come. Or the Doom Patrol. Just because you have the younger generation of heroes, doesn't mean Superman lost his super strength."

If the Brain could smirk, he would. "No, but would Batman attack if his protege was at stake? Or Green Arrow? How about the Doom Patrol? Aquaman won't attack if Aqualad is in danger. No, if someone attacks, we have everything we need right here. Madame Rouge! Freeze the little troublemakers."

Madame Rouge clearly was growing tired of being ordered around, but she jumped to the floor and used her stretchy arms to grab Beast Boy. "Any last words?"

Beast Boy gave Madame Rouge a sly, knowing look. "I wouldn't stand there if I were you."

Cyborg and the two Arctic Titans burst through the floor. "Lesson number one, don't throw me down a hole unless you know I'm gonna stay there!"

Starfire burst through the wall. "The lesson two: we never give up!"

Raven teleported up from the ground with the super kids. "Lesson number three: your super secret lair isn't exactly that secret."

With that, the Titans charged into battle. Robin felt like facepalming. Really? Charging in with no plan? However, Robin could do nothing but struggle against Mishu Mala. The Titans were slowly brought down. Mas was recaptured by scientists before he could reach Menos. Pantha was brought down by a magician. Madame Rouge stopped Beast Boy from getting to him and the Brain. Herald was blindsided by Gizmo. Cyborg knocked out Control Freak, but was captured by Mad Mod.

Raven tried to rescue Robin, but was intercepted by Plasmus. Kid Flash, one of Robin's oldest friends, showed up with his new girlfriend, Jinx. (I ship them so hard. But only in Teen Titans. In YJ, Artemis and KF are amazing) They formed a great twosome, sassing the villains while kicking butt, but they were eventually stopped by Kitty, Fang, and Killer Moth. The worst was Starfire. She had made a beeline for Robin, but was brutally knocked down by Cheshire. (I ship Roy and Jade too. I'll get to that later.)

Throughout the battle, Robin had yelled strategies and advice to his teammates, trying to coordinate them, but none of them but the original Titans listened. They were too used to fighting solo, not taking into account other battles and situations around them. If Robin had been active, then maybe he could have rallied them, but midway through the fight Mishu Mala put his hand over Robin's mouth.

The Titans were lined up again, this time with the missing members. Mishu Mala shoved Robin in front of the Brain.

Brain turned to Robin and began monologuing… again. "Well, Robin? Are you going to admit defeat now? How many reserve members do you have?"

Robin practically snarled at the Brain. "I will never admit defeat! You will be taken down!"

Brain gave his unnatural, robotic laugh. "Your blind optimism is amusing Robin. You see, the game was lost when I captured the King. Once I had you, their leader, they lost coordination. You are the key to everything. It's always about you."

Robin flashed back to when Slade had said the exact same thing. He couldn't shake the feeling that something even more terrible was about to happen.

Robin's fears were justified when Brain ordered, "Freeze the Tamaranian!"

Robin started thrashing desperately, trying to reach Starfire as she was dragged to the freezing machine. "Starfire! No! Let her go, Brain!"

If an organ in a jar could look triumphant, Brain did. "Oh, Robin. She's not an ordinary pawn, is she? She is your Queen, the most powerful piece on the chessboard. But she's more than that. You have feelings for her. I am going to make you watch us freeze her. You will accept that your defeat is total."

Robin glared at the Brain. "You'll never win. There are others who will stop you. This accomplishes nothing!"

The Brain seemed to smirk. "On the contrary, Robin, it accomplishes everything." And with that, Starfire screamed as the scientists froze her.
