Present day
8:00 am.
At least that's what it said on the Tower clock. All the Titans were having breakfast when Beast boy piped up. "Hey Cyborg, you wanna play me in Mega Monkeys 4 after I kick your but in a food eating contest?"
As Cyborg looks up to accept Beast boy's challenge, Robin looks up from the mainframe. "Oh no you don't." said Robin. "It's your turn to do dishes. You can play games after you're done."
Beast boy turns back to his breakfast mumbling "You can play games after you're done."
The rest of breakfast goes by relatively peacefully. Beast boy gets up from his chair and clears the dishes and starts to run water for the dishes when the alarm goes off.
Everyone drops what they're doing and runs to the main room.
"What is it?" everyone asks in unison.
"Bank robbery." replies Robin "Titans GO!"
A few minutes later
The scene that greets the titans is not what is expected.
When they arrive the police are already giving reports.
The titans sit there for a moment stunned. Usually they are called when the regular cops can't handle it. But the scene before them says they already took care of it.
Robin walks up to the closest cop and asks "What's going on? Was it a false alarm?"
The cop turns to him with a puzzled look on his face, and then asks "Wait. You didn't do this? One of your guys went in there and within a minute they were all either frozen in ice or passed out, some nearly dead. But none actually died. We went to talk to him but he ran out the back."
Robin took a step back and looked back at his team, they were all there. He turned back to the cop and shook his head. "None of this makes sense. None of the teen titans are cryomancers." (Authors Note: ice magic) "And he would have said something to you if he was with the Titans. I'll go look for him. Give the rest of the Titans a report."
Robin walked through the bank, avoiding any areas that were police taped off. He saw a few robbers completely frozen in ice. EMT's had electric heat elements on them thawing them out. Others were cuffed and being taken into custody.
He reached the back and walked through the door that opened up into a back alley. He looked at the ground and saw some residual gunpowder with a footprint pointing to the left. He started walking that way.
After a minute or two of walking he felt a rush of air at his back. He looked over his shoulder and Raven was there. She floated for a moment and then set down. "They aren't telling us anything useful. I figured I would come and help you look for whoever did this."
Robin starts moving again and turns a corner and says, "Thanks Raven, but we may have found him just now.", as he points ahead at a man bent over panting in what appeared to be black robes with silver tracing on them.
Immediately after he says this, the man jerks up, looks at them for a moment and bolts. Immediately Raven and Robin take off after him. The man comes to a "T" in the alley and takes the right path.
"Wait!" Yells Robin. "We Need to Talk to You!" They round the corner and see a man in his "Sunday best." The man quickly points to the ground in front of Robin and yells "Watch out! It's Icy!" But the warning comes a little too late. Robins feet fall out from under him and he catches himself just short of a face-plant. The man walks over and helps Robin to his feet. The man points up and says "He jump-kicked up the wall and went to the right." Raven scoops up Robin as he thanks the man.
Raven sets Robin on the roof and they take off. But a curious scene meets their eyes...There isn't anyone up there as far as they see in any direction. Robin stops and asks Raven if she can see anything to which she shakes her head.
Robin puts his chin in his hand. "This is so strange. The titan alarm goes off. We all rush out the door within minutes. We get there in an orderly time. And the situation is already taken care of by a yet anonymous person we've never seen. We then look out back and see a man who runs away the moment we see him and successfully disappears within a minute. Can you make anything out of it Raven?"
Raven looks at Robin. "The thing that gets me is that there was nothing that was taken from the bank. So the person either got cold feet, so to speak, or he was never with the robbers. The cops arn't sure yet."
Robin looks up. "Well for now spread out the titans and look for a man with that description. We need to get his story either way."
Robin starts searching while Raven goes back to the titans and gives a brief description of the man they're looking for and everyone spreads out. After a few hours with no success, the team reunites and heads back to the tower.
Landing on the roof Cyborg rubs his neck. "Yeah I could have sworn that i seen a cape dash around a corner once but when I got to the end and looked there was nothing there."
Robin looked to the rest of the team. "Well either way I'm going to go check news outlets and see if there have been related incidents in the past few weeks. See you tomorrow morning."
The team stares after him and when the door closes behind him, Cyborg says, "Anyone else feel like he's going to do that until he figures out who did it?"
