"Okay, there are a few things I want to know." Beastboy said as he paced the hospital hall outside the emergency room while the other Titans waited anxiously in their seats. "First, who the hell is that dude?! Second, why was he being chased by a monster? Third, why did a big helicopter waste the monsters body and then try to waste us? Third, why did the piolet waste himself?! And finally where did this dude come from?!" Beastboy asked as he counted each question on his fingers.

"We'll have plenty of time to ask him who's chasing him when we get the chance." Robin said sitting forward resting his elbows on his knees, hands cupped in thought. Cyborg was asleep in the bench on the opposite side of the hall, sitting back with his large metal arms and head hanging over the back of the bench hands hanging over the front snoring lightly. Raven sat to his left sitting up straight and reading the same book she had back at the tower. Starfire sat to Robin's right hands resting in her lap waiting patiently as Beastboy continued to pace up and down the hall until he saw Raven reading her book.

"Man, Raven that must be a really good book." He said standing next to her.

"It is." she said flatly.

"What's is called?" Beastboy asked trying to read the front of the book.

"Killer Dreams." Raven said starting to get annoyed.

"What's it about?" Beastboy asked trying to look over the top of the book.

"You'll have to read it to find out." Raven said putting the book down and meeting his gaze with angry eyes.

"So, can I read it when your done?" he asked with a smile trying to get on her good side.

"You read?" she asked with a raised eyebrow.

"I think we went over this already Raven." he said now annoyed ears falling down.

"I know you can read but do you actually read, at all?"

"I do, sometimes..." Beastboy said turning away just in time to see a team of doctors and surgeons exiting the emergency room pushing the stranger on a gurney.

"How is he doctor?" Robin asked as he and the other quickly got up and walked with the doctors down the hall, except for Cyborg who was still asleep and now snoring very loudly.

"He's not in any danger, and he should wake up in less than a week." The doctor said as all of them turned the corner and headed to the nearest empty patient's room.

"Huh? Wha..." Cyborg said sleepily waking up and finding himself alone. "Yo! Where'd everybody go?" he said looking around.

"So we can ask him questions when he wakes up right?" Beastboy asked once the stranger was in the bed and hooked up.

"Well you should if he doesn't try to kill himself in the first two minutes he hears your highly irritating voice, and if you think I being mean little miss sunshine would probably agree with me." The doctor answered nodding to Raven on his left while writing on a clipboard.

"Don't let him get to you hun, he's always like that." nurse Carla said comforting Beastboy.

"Yeah you should have seen him when he found out his ex-wife was lying to him about being the father of her son." Laverne said as she hung up the IV bag next to the strangers bed. (A.N. Yes that's right Scrubs fans this the first of many crossovers that I have in mind.)

"Laverene, for the love of that Christian god you so dearly worship don't you have anything better to gossip about?" Dr. Cox said handing an intern a list of prescriptions.

"You kidding? Teenage mutant found with a ten foot tall lizard and then attacked by an assault helicopter? This is front page news!" She said to him as he walked out of the room and down the hall. "Damn, speak of the Devil." she said as a swarm of news reporters and camera men stormed down the hall.

"Robin! Is it true that the tremors were caused by a monster?"

"Is it true that your team was attacked by an AH64D Apache Longbow?"

"Is it true the piolet shoot himself?" asked the large crowd of reporters as cameramen took as many photos as possible blinding everyone in the room in bright flashes of light.

A few days later in the streets of Paris a mysterious cloaked woman approached her a large seemingly abandoned warehouse dragging a sinister air around her as she walked. When she entered the building a mans voice called out to her.

"Did you bring what I asked for?" the man asked leaning against the wall in the shadows.

"Yes I did." the woman answered with a think Russian accent. "But I do not see why you had me collect newspapers when anyone here could have done so." Madame Rouge said removing her hood and handing Slade a large bag of newspapers.

"True but no one else could have done so without attracting attention." Slade said reffering to her shape-shifting ability.

"I still don't see why I had to collect newspapers." she said as they began to walk to a large table in the rear of the building. At the table sat: The Brain, General Immortus, Monsieur Mallah, and Brother Blood.

"We have been frozenfor over a year and we require information." The Brain's voice rang out. Slade dropped the large stack of papers on the table and was shocked to see the cover photo of the most recent newspaper taken at Jump City Hospital showing the Teen Titans and the strangers in the bed.

"Well, it seems the Titans have ran into an old freind of mine." he said as he tossed the paper on the center of the table for all to see.
