Figured I'd give you the other side of the story. Expect a lot of: "Chapter.5" as I attempt to show both sides.

Chapter 2.5: Trouble Brewing

The three heroes struggled to calm the terrified citizen. The two others looked in shock at the broken city around them. "What happened?" One of the three asked the man.

"I-I don't know…It happened so fast…All I remember seeing was a blue blur…" The old man stuttered, his wide eyes glancing around at what was left of his store.

Robin exchanged a puzzled glance with Starfire, "That doesn't sound like anyone-or anything-I know."

Cyborg butted in. "Nor I. And I didn't know anything could move that fast in the first place. From talking to the citizens, it sounded like it was going so fast no one could get a good look."

Beast boy nodded from where he was staring at the city. I know my animals, nothing can move that fast."

Cyborg agreed with him. "The only machines that can move that fast are jets, and it sounds like whatever that wrecked this place was about half the size of an average person."

"I think you're about to find out what it was." Raven said, pointing to a blue streak zipping towards them.

"Cyborg, can you see what it is?"

The teen was currently typing furiously onto a keypad on his arm. "It's moving too fast for me to tell, I can't pinpoint it!"

Another explosion.

XXXX

"There it is!" Robin yelled, pointing to a blue shape on the ground. The thing's face turned towards them, it's eyes wide. "Titans! Go!" Robin yelled, flinging a bird-a-rang at it. The thing yelped, jumping up and racing away as Robin shot more after it.

One of Starfire's starbolts shot by his head, clipping-what looked like-the blue shape's ear. A gloved and clapped it down.

"The dude's fast!" Cyborg yelled as he raced along, still trying furiously to figure out what the shape was.

Beast boy grinned. "Not as fast as me!" He yelled, shifting into a cheetah. The green shape pulled up next to the blue one.

It was difficult to see because of the speed, but the blue shape might've grinned at the cheetah before saying: "Hah! You wish!" Beast Boy gaped as the shape shot ahead at an incredible speed, leaving the Titans in the dust.

"What the heck?" Beat Boy yelled, looking at the others with wide eyes. "How did-" He broke off, still trying to wrap his brain around it.

Cyborg grinned, his arm shifting into the cannon. "It can't outrun my Sonic Cannon!" He yelled, grinning widely as he fired.

The back of the blue shape arched as the cannon struck it, but the shape didn't stop running, though it did cry out in what might've been pain or shock. Cyborg growled, firing again, this time closer to the shape's feet. The cannon couldn't keep up with it. The five Titans stared in silent shock. Then Raven broke it. "Azarath, Metrion, Zinthos!" A rock came crashing down behind the shape, just barely missing it. She let out a sound of frustration.

The shape seemed to be tiring, it staggered as it hit the ground after a jump over a stream, then disappeared from sight. Robin glanced down at the tracks the shape had left behind. They led right to a cave. Robin waved to them, indicating to go down. The tracks stopped halfway down. "It tricked us!" Beast Boy yelled, his voice echoing around the cave.

Robin sighed with disappointment. "C'mon. Let's go back to the tower."

"Did we learn anything new, at least?" Robin asked, sitting down across from Cyborg.

The half-bot shrugged. "Sort of. I still couldn't get a good reading-after modifying my sensors to read high-speeds-but from watching it I'd guess it's living. It seemed to be capable to tiring and feeling pain, and it didn't look like it was made of metal. Other than that, I couldn't even begin to guess."

Robin frowned. "So we're still no closer to stopping it."

Hope you enjoyed! Oh, and Sonic was KO during the explosions and such at the beginning, and when the Titans went in the cave. That's why it wasn't mentioned in the last one.

Like always, hope you enjoyed and please review!
