This is the third chapter from Teen Matrix, and this time The Teen Titans are in this one.

Third Chapter Notes

Kid guests stars as the operator of Last Hope. Terra's part of the Titans, I don't care if Terra's a good or bad guy. Either way, she's a Titan in my book.

Disclaimer: Still don't own them.

Chapter 3: Unexpected Surprise

The sun started to rise as Last Hope drove their vehicles down Tecko Ave. while LM put on speed dial on the teams operator. Outside the Matrix, we see the same team sitting on their chairs, connected to the Matrix. Next to them is their operator, Kid. He believed that Neo saved his life years ago. Apparently, Neo didn't save Kid, Kid saved himself (Reminder of one of the episodes of The Animatrix: Kid's Story) Kid scanned through the Matrix when the phone ringed.

Kid: Operator.

LM: (inside the matrix) Kid it's me, LM.

Kid: Oh thank Neo. There was lot's of crazy shit back there. Is the team Alright?

LM: (inside the matrix) We're all cool. I hope you found an exit.

Kid: Working on it. (Pause) Found an exit, but you're not going to like it.

LM: Hit me.

Kid: There's a working telephone in a warehouse at the docks on the other side of the city. It's best for you to take the highway in Route 24.

LM: (inside the matrix) thanks for the tip Kid. (Hung up the phone)

Connecter: Well, what did Kid say?

LM: We have to go to Route 24 to the highway. There's a phone on the other side of town.

Kill Switch: Great... And where is Route 24 anyways?

LM: We'll go straight through Tecko Ave. and look for the sign that said Route 24.

The team continued straight to Route 24, but LM looked at Silent Night and she was a little worried.

LM: What's wrong Silent Night?

Silent Night: Something's not right.

LM: What do you mean?

Silent Night: There were just ten S.W.A.T. soldiers in the building while the rest of the army was waiting out side for us. Do you think they were planning on something?

LM: I don't know. But one thing's for certain, we got the disk, and destroyed those S.W.A.T. bastards. Nothing is going to stop us from saving the Matrix, not even a...

A flash of green light exploded on the ground, interrupting LM.

LM: WHAT THE...

Another flash of green light exploded as LM pushed both feet to the brake pedal, stopping the hot rod completely. Max. Speed stopped his cycle at the same time as the car. LM once again called Kid to find out what happened.

Kid: (on the phone) Operator.

LM: What the hell happened? There were green explosions on the street.

Kid: (on the phone) Yeah, about that. I've been getting some weird interference from where you are; I mean it's right after you got away from the S.W.A.T. teams

LM: And you didn't tell me this because...

Kid: (on the phone) I thought it was a malfunction in the computers. Don't worry, I'm figuring out what's wrong. Just give me a minute.

LM: I don't have time for this.

LM quickly took out a 9000 S pistol out of the glove compartment and got out of the car.

Night Owl: Sir, are you nuts!?

LM: Just stay inside the car, I'll find our mysterious intruder.

He went around the hot rod, checking the streets to see if anyone was there, when Kid called him.

Kid: (on the phone) I found something, it's a little screwy, but I think I can gather it all up.

LM: Better hurry.

Kid: (on the phone) O.K., the person who threw those green explosions was- (quick pause) Uh sir...

LM: Yeah Kid.

Kid: (on the phone) You know you're in Jump City right?

LM: Yeah I'm in Jump City. So...

Kid: (on the phone) Well I think you're dealing with more then one intruder, I think it's six.

LM: Six what, powerful S.W.A.T. squadrons?

Kid: (on the phone) No.

LM: Six agents?

Kid: (on the phone) I don't think they're agents.

LM: Then who? Who in one's mind would stop us from getting out of here?

Just then, two red boomerangs popped out of nowhere and took out both LM's phone and pistol. Feeling a little pain on his hands, he heard a voice.

Robin: The same type of team that will send you to jail.

LM turned around to see who threw them. Turned out that it was Jump City's finest teenage team. There were six members of this team. The first member is Raven, a mysterious gothic girl with the power to move inanimate objects with her mind and has amazing healing powers. The next member is Beast Boy, a green skinned practical joker with the ability to change into any animal he choose. Terra is the newest member of the group, this blonde hair western girl possesses earth-moving abilities. The biggest member of the group is Cyborg, half man, half robot, he possesses incredible strength and a sonic blaster that can destroy anything. The other member is Starfire, an orange skinned, red hair, Tamaranean alien girl that has the joy of flight and fires star bolts with both her hands and eyes. And the final member is the leader of the team, Robin, once a sidekick of Batman, he's a lean mean fighting machine. This group of fine young super heroes is called the Teen Titans. LM stared at the team he and was shocked to see them in person. Max Speed was about to help him out but LM stopped him just to let Max Speed know that LM has it under control.

LM: Well, well, well... So this is the S.W.A.T's final line of defense, the legendary Teen Titans.

Robin: You know about us?

LM: I know a lot about you Robin. You see, I read all about all of you at the Zion achieves, and I got to say it is real impressive of what you do. Fighting crime, saving lives, beating up creeps, freaks, and nasty villains from Earth to Outer Space. You guys can do anything in this city. In short Titans I would wish to say, congratulations!

Beast Boy: Uh, thanks dude. (turning to Cyborg) What the hell is Zion? (question marks appearing on both heads)

LM: Too bad you kids don't have enough smarts.

Back in the hot rod, the rest of the team looked at LM talking to the Titans.

Kill Switch: What the hell is he doing?

Connecter: Don't worry Kill Switch; LM knows what he's doing.

Robin: What are you talking about?

LM: I'm talking about the truth Robin. You see the truth is right in front of you but all of you don't see it. If you want to see the truth, you better sacrifice everything you have and own. My team and me did that and we're having a great time.

Cyborg: Yo Father Lunatic, why don't you shut up and start fighting?

LM: Try me.

Cyborg activated his Sonic Cannon and fired on LM. LM used his focusing ability and dodged the laser by bending back. He quickly stood up like nothing happened.

LM: You really need to work on your aim.

Cyborg turned all red and had pissed off look on his face. Starfire tries to comfort him.

Starfire: Be calm Cyborg, not everyone's perfect shooter.

LM: Yeah Cyborg, just listen to your friend and back off.

Cyborg: (exploded) That's it, I'll rip you apart limb from limb!

Raven formed a black dome on Cyborg, trying to protect him. LM was enjoying it until his short-circuited phone was on and Kid was giving the bad news.

Kid: (on the phone) LM can you hear- We got a probl- got agents- your way. Get the- of here!

LM did understand what Kid was saying. But the Titans are blocking Last Hope's only way out. He got a great idea and talked to the Titans. He also had a grenade on the back of the belt buckle and slowly took it out without the Titans noticing it.

LM: How about this. Let us go, and we won't bother you or your fair city. Deal?

The Titans discussed about this and answered the questioned.

Robin: No way. The chief told us that you terrorists are dangerous and there's no way we will make deals with people like you.

With that as an answer, LM pulled out the pin of the grenade out.

LM: Then you leave me with no choice. Here CATCH!

LM threw the grenade at the Teen Titans.

Robin: Titans, take cover!

Beast Boy morphed into a hawk and flew out of the way. Starfire and Raven followed after Beast Boy. Robin used his grappling hook to reach to the highest point away from the blast. Terra used her abilities to create a rocky shield for both her and Cyborg. LM quickly headed to his car where the rest of his team was waiting. As soon as the grenade exploded, LM pushed the accelerator pedal and ride through the flames. Max Speed then followed the car with his Suzuki cycle. When Last Hope fled the scene, the Teen Titans went back to the ground as Cyborg extinguished the fire.

Raven: Well that was impressive.

Robin: Titans, after them!

Robin went on his R-Cycle while Cyborg, Raven, and Terra headed to the T- Car. They chased after Last Hope while Starfire and Beast Boy took to the air. A black car arrived to the scene but it was too late. Last Hope and the Teen Titans left before the agents came.

Agent William: Should we go after them?

Agent Jackson: Yes, but we'll watch, not attack.

Agent William: Why?

Agent Jackson: The Chief of Police told me that the Titans could handle any challenge. This should be interesting.
