Beastboy's POV

It's been 5 years since Raven's vision about Slade. James is growing up. He's 6 now, and little Blossom is 4, turning 5 in a few days. I was as happy as I could be. Well, I was still worried that Slade might show up at any moment, and my son was starting to use his mother's powers, and mine. He can only transform into a wolf right now, and he can't very long, it does hurt, I will admit.

Suddenly, the alarm signaling trouble went off. I jump to my feet. James was right in front of me, looking at me with a frown.

"I hate that stupid thing."

"Why?"

"Because you guys always leave, and Mommy and Aunt Star stays but you, Uncle Cy and Robin, always come back hurt.", he sighs. I roll my eyes, and kiss his forehead.

"Don't worry about that. Just be good for Mommy, okay?", I ask. He nods and I run to the main room. Cy and Robin were already there, ready to leave. Blossom was in the room and she looked at us.

"One day, me and James will go with you guys, right? We'll be Titans, too!", she tells me with a large smile. I don't like the thought of them going out on missions one day, but for now, I'm just grateful that they're out of harm's way now.

"One day, sweetheart, one day.", I answer with a smile. She smiles and we all leave. We took the T-Car, and I looked at Robin. "What's going on anyway?"

"Cinderblock is attacking.", ugh, I really hate that one.

Raven's POV

James was trying to levitate, and Blossom was having her hair brushed by Starfire. It was rather relaxing today. I still haven't gotten that vision out of my head. I know it's been 5 years, but I can't shake off the feeling something terrible is going to happen.

Suddenly, another alarm sounded. But, not the one indicating trouble in the city. Someone broke into the Tower.

"James, come here.", I order, lifting my little boy in my arms. He hid himself in my cloak, and Starfire was already carrying Blossom. We each look around.

"Did you miss me?", Slade's voice asks. Quickly, I bring myself beside Starfire and put a shield around us. Slade walks in the main room, his hands behind his back. He looks at the kids, and I have a tighter grip on James. "Clever of me to send the boys out on a wild goose chase, am I right? You girls will be easy to take down. And the children will be mine.", I step out of my shield, but keep it around the others, and I attack Slade with one of my spells. I go to blast him, but he disappears from his spot. Then, I feel someone take me by my shoulders.

"Mommy!", James yells. Starfire was trying to break out of the shield, but couldn't. I have to protect them. Slade throws himself on top of me. I couldn't get up, and when I went to use a spell, he covers my mouth. I let Starfire out of the shield, and use the last bit of energy I have to keep the shield over my son and niece. Starfire goes to attack Slade, but he brings out a bomb like thing and throws it at her. It pushes her back, and then explodes, causing her to hit the window in front of the room, then once it explodes fall out. The blast must have knocked her out because I didn't see her fly back up. Then he looks at me, putting something over my face, causing my body to feel weaker, and then everything begins to fade. I didn't have the energy to do anything but allow it to happen to me. My head falls to the side, and moments before I black out, I see my shield fall. The kids…

Cy's POV

I was helping fight Cinderblock when I got the signal saying someone attacked the Tower. I told this to Robin, and he told me to go back and see what was going on. Him and BB would catch up as soon as they could. I went to the Tower only to find a nightmare. Star was passed out, outside, and I looked up and saw the window in the main room broken. Someone threw her out of it. I lifted her up and rush in the Tower, and saw Raven out cold on the floor, and the kids no where to be found. I get out my Communicator and lay them both down on the couch. I call Robin.

"We just finished up Cinderblock and we're on our way. What's going on?"

"I was too late. Star and Rae are knocked out and the kids are gone.", I was too late. I was too slow. If I was faster, I could have saved them.

"We'll be there soon.", Robin's voice got a whole lot more serious, and I could tell the news I just told him broke him. Within minutes, both of them were at the Tower. BB wakes up Raven.

"Rae, it's me. Wake up. James and Blossom need us.", Robin tried to get Star to wake up, but it wouldn't work. Raven barely managed to wake herself up. She looked up at us, with tears in her eyes.

"S-Slade…", was all she could manage to say before blacking out once more. We all tensed up. Cinderblock was just a distraction. No wonder it was on the opposite side of town, they needed us gone. Why didn't I see the trap?!

"He's so dead.", BB mumbles, getting up from his wife's side, clenching his fists. I nod in agreement.

"We know where Slade is, what was we waiting for?! Our kids need us!"

"Let's go team. First, we have to get the girls in the medic.", Robin says. I get the girls set up, praying that this would work.

"We shouldn't leave them alone. Maybe some of us go to Slade's and the other stays here to make sure the girls are in no danger.", BB says.

"It's not the girls Slade is after. If it was, he would have taken them, too.", Robin says. I don't know.

"Maybe he wanted us to know exactly who took the kids. It's a trap."

"Of course it's a trap, but what choice do we have? It's either fall into a trap, or never see the kids again. Who know what Slade has planned for them.", BB says. True.

"Alright, team, we'll wait for the girls to wake up, then go for the kids. I have a feeling Slade wants all of us there. And, if we don't do exactly what he wants-"

"James and Blossom will pay the price.", I finish, and that made everything in me want to shut down. Why would Slade want to do this to a couple of little kids?

Beastboy's POV

The thought of something happening to my little boy made my blood ran cold. I fear not only his safety, but my niece's. I swear, I will kill Slade. He crossed the line dragging our kids into this. Star and Raven woke up within 10 minutes, and we all went to Slade's hideout we found when Robin was forced to work for him to save us. I still can't believe he worked with the person he hated the most just to protect us. And we still doubted him. I attacked him. I still can't believe that.

"Okay, team, here's the plan, Beastboy, you're going to get the kids. Knowing Slade he has them guarded and if you can manage to transform into the Beast, you can take them out faster than any of us could. Raven, just to be safe, you back him up. Cyborg, Starfire, you two are going to help me distract Slade and, if necessary, take down guards.", Robin orders. We all nod, and Raven and I go in through a vent.

"Raven, if there are guards, I'll take them out and guard you while you get the kids, okay? And, if you have to, leave me and get the kids out of there and don't look back.", I whisper to her.

"No one is being left behind, Gar, we'll both save the kids.", she assures me. I sigh and look at her.

"I hope you're right."
