When Raven backed out of the café using her dark powers, she ended up in an ally. From where her mysterious prey had exited, however, she discovered that he was on the other side of the street. Raven turned around sharply, looking in every direction for the person who captured her interests just moments ago. With him still in her mind, Raven took flight, flying swiftly through the ally trying to find a reasonable way out. She managed to get to the main road when her Titan communicator signaled.

"Raven, we need you!" yelled Robin through the radio. "Dr. Light is at the power plant again and he's power-surging the entire city! Lights are off all over town! Get down here now!" Raven wanted to search for just a little bit longer, but she knew her duties and left, taking a last glance at the ground as she took off. She spotted him staring up at her, and he tauntingly waved in the air to her. She stopped mid air, half wanting to go back. But she turned around, going south towards downtown, ready to get Dr. Light and rush back.

Starfire and Beast Boy charged full on at Dr. Light. Wearing his super suit that boosted his power tremendously, Dr. Light emitted a powerful light blast, sending the two of them soaring. Robin flew in on his grapple hook, kicking Dr. Light's right arm. His arm flung out, shooting out yellow energy, unintentionally aimed towards Raven as she flew in. She waved her hand in front of her, and a black shield appeared protecting her. She deflected the blast and joined the rest of the team.

"Geez, Raven, where've ya been?" questioned Beast Boy. "We're not exactly winning here!"

"He's right," agreed Robin, "Dr. Light's power is enhanced with that suit he's in. It's more powerful now that he's on his own turf. All of the static electricity surrounding us is elevating his power levels." Robin's observations were unfortunately true. Dr. Light was now glowing with power. He aimed his arms at Cyborg whose sonic cannon was out and ready. Cyborg shot a powerful blue blast at Dr. Light's arm. In return, he produced a blinding ray of light which met Cyborg's sonic blast head on. They battled out until their foe extended both hands, pushing Cyborg back and sprawling out on the ground.

"This is pointless," Raven said to herself. "I don't have time for this." Raven glanced back at the north side of town, still thinking of places where she might run into the boy from earlier. Dr. Light took advantage of her vulnerability. He shot her out of the air and onto the pavement. She landed with a thud.

"Raven!" Starfire helped her friend up off the ground. "The Dr. Light is most painful in his blasts of bright attacks." Starfire's eyes were glowing green when they burst with power. The shot hit Dr. Light square in the chest, cracking the light bulb source of power on his suit. His left arm stopped glowing. Robin's eyes widened.

"Titans! Aim for anything that glows, we are going to shut him down." His plan was logical. Robin commanded his team to attack with confidence. He whipped out his Bo Staff and swung at Dr. Light's remaining functional arm. His enemy jumped backwards and out of the way. Dr. Light ended up closer to the power plant fence, the only thing keeping him out of the actual facility. His fingers clenched around the chain links. He grinned evilly. His hands shone yellow, scorching the metal fence and bursting through. He laughed, running towards the massive power cells.

"You fools!" he began, "No one can stop me now! After I absorb this power the city's electric supply will be drained, giving me the power to take out the Teen Titans!" Dr. Light raised his arms and power surged through his veins. The heroes briefly exchanged looks, and reacted together.

"Titans, Go!"

Robin threw an energy disk which exploded in a red burst, hitting Dr. Light but having no effect. Starfire's star-bolts fired multiple times around Dr. Light's feet, and hit him several times in the face and chest. He stepped back some, regaining his balance. Raven used her telekinesis to lift the parked cars on the street. Cyborg charged his sonic cannon, and Beast Boy transformed into a charging rhino.

"Azarath... Metrion…" A blast from Dr. Light's power sources cut Raven's spell short. He made contact, blinding her briefly.

"Didn't I tell you before?" he chuckled, "A bit of advice: find shorter magic words…" Dr. Light mocked Raven as she picked herself up from off the ground. Cyborg released the sonic energy building up. A bright blue beam of power headed straight for Dr. Light and exploded into a swirl of grey smoke.

"Booyah!" celebrated Cyborg. "Huh?" The smoke cleared and Dr. Light was still standing. Beast Boy charged at the foe with much speed, hooking him with his horns and dragging him up off the ground. Dr. Light was thrown across the street. Robin and Starfire both ran towards the enemy, who simply lifted his arms and produced two blasts of light, sending them flying out of sight. Cyborg ran up to Dr. Light swinging fists. After a few successful hits, Dr. Light swung back with enhanced power. Cyborg lost his breath after getting hit in the gut. Dr. Light shot his power at Cyborg, who also went flying. Beast Boy and Raven stood ready for attack.

"Uhm, Raven?" Beast Boy asked, "Got any ideas?" She shook her head.

"Just hit him with whatever we got." Raven lifted debris from their battle, sending it straight at Dr. Light. Beast Boy changed into a massive T-Rex. He attacked from the ground while Raven continuously produced more objects to hurl. None of their attacks worked. Dr. Light disintegrated all of Raven's weapons and hit Beast Boy head on. They fell to the floor where they stood.

"Now that the Titans are out of my way, I can fully charge my suit, fix the cracks and have it functioning to perfection in no time!" Dr. Light had a triumphant look on his face. "With this all powerful suit, my power is unlimited! Without it, I doubt the Titans would have fallen, but now that that's in the past and my victory is assured, I'll be taking my leave…" A swift motion occurred and a cracking sound was made. Dr. Light stopped speaking.

"A bit of advice: Don't shout all your plans to the world. Especially when you're that weak…retard…"

The handsome figure with jet black hair stood at a close distance to the shocked villain. A single playing card was perfectly jammed into the Dr. Light's power suit: the Ace of Spades. It burst in his chest with a red explosion. Dr. Light was thrown back and landed on his side. Raven looked up at the nameless man with her mouth gaping. He looked at her and smiled. A simple but pure smile.

Dr. Light got up. "Who do you think you are? Some unheard of Teen Titan?" The confused Dr. Light readied power in the palms of his clenched hands. "No matter…" He released the energy at the man, of whom Raven was still staring.

Easily dodged, the energy blast hit the building behind him. "I'm not a Teen Titan. You can call me Ace." He held out his left arm in front of his chest, the tips of his fingers facing right. Ace reached into his sleeve and pulled out four cards, fanning them out before throwing them. Each card soared without wavering through the air. All four hit Dr. Light's right arm, each exploding simultaneously with a red burst. The seemingly defeated Dr. Light rolled over a few times before the smoke cleared. His arm was gone.

"M-m-my arm…" Dr. Light stammered at the shock. "Augh!" He screamed, staring at where his most powerful limb once was. Ace brought his hands together, outstretched in front of him. A green light shone through his fingers and he shot out an emerald blast at the villain. A blue spiral encircled the green beam. The blast hit Dr. Light and threw him onto a heap of metal.

"Time to finish you off…" Ace reached into the breast pocket of his trench coat.

"Wait!" Robin emerged. Seeing that he was not alone, Ace replaced what he had pulled out and went to Dr. Light's side. He placed the tips of his fingers on their enemy's chest. Ace pressed down gently. Dr. Light's arm reappeared; it was growing back. Dr. Light looked at his arm, then at Ace.

"Mercy…you have given me mercy…" He could barely say five words when the villain collapsed, unconscious. Robin rushed to Dr. Light's
side. The other four Titans followed, Raven being slightly behind the others.

"What did you do to him?" Robin looked nervously at Ace. The other Titans were not so skeptical.

"Nice job out there!" yelled Beast Boy with a grin. "That was one heck of a fight, huh?" Ace laughed and nodded.

"No kidding! That was pretty intense!" Cyborg shook hands with the new hero.

"Marvelous! It was…most wonderful!" Starfire gazed at the handsome figure before her. Raven waited patiently.

"Thanks, guys, just in the neighborhood I guess," replied Ace modestly. "I could see his light show from uptown. It was a little too bright for my taste." He winked at Raven. She appeared less than impressed, but remained speechless.

"So, new friend, what might we call you?" Starfire smiled so big her face seemed larger. Her Titan friends were also interested in the identity of their present companion.

"Well, I know that you all are the Teen Titans, but you guys can just call me Ace." He put his hands in the pockets of his coat.

"Ace, huh?" Beast Boy puffed out his chest, trying to seem bigger. He was several inches shorter than Ace, and less than muscular in comparison, though it was hard to tell with the oversized jacket. "Well, maybe we could see you around town sometime, you like pizza?"

"Of course I like pizza!" Ace clutched is stomach at the thought of food. "I haven't had it for a while though, don't really have the cash, if you catch my drift."

"Oh," said Beast Boy, disappointed.

"Well that won't be a problem," Cyborg cut in. "You can eat pizza with us sometime then, where are you staying? We could meet you somewhere close to your place." Starfire grinned at the thought of her mustard-topped pizza. She nodded violently, agreeing with her fellow Titans.

"I'm not really staying anywhere actually," Ace looked down. "I kind of just…hang out." Raven looked at him. "So, thanks guys, but I doubt I can. Cool meeting you all though." Robin feared what came next.

"Oh, please friend! You must stay with us at our tower of the Titans," Starfire suggested a mutual proposal amongst her friends. Robin kept silent. Raven smiled briefly at the thought. "Perhaps for just one journey to a parlor of pizza?" Starfire clapped her hands together, asking sincerely.

Ace smiled. He looked to Raven for approval. She didn't move. He frowned.

"Well... sorry guys, I don't think I can…" Ace still looked at Raven. She turned her head to the side slightly, breaking their visual connection.

"Maybe just one slice?" It was the first time Raven spoke, the first words she said to the person that she was so desperately trying to figure out. Robin did not object to anything.

"Sure thing," said Ace, happy at Raven's approval. "I just don't want to intrude or anything…" But Ace was grabbed by his new friends and dragged to Titans Tower. Raven followed behind the group, eventually catching up to Ace, walking directly by his side.

Robin looked at Dr. Light, lying unconscious on the ground. He picked up the Ace of Spades that was still piercing Dr. Light's power suit. Robin tucked the card away and slowly walked back to Titan's Tower.

OKAY OKAY! I hoped you liked it! And yeah, "why would the teen titans just invite a stranger into their house", right? Hello, Terra, much? Robin had a bad feeling about her too, so yeah. I'm not hating on Terra, im just using her as an example, i just needed ace to get into Titans Tower. r&r.

thanks to you
