Next Week on Teen Titans Dawn…

Red X looked at the Titans standing before him. "You've got to be joking."

"I think this is going to be fun," Jinx said.

Robin stepped forward. "If you're going to play, you're playing by my rules, not yours. Your rules earn you a one-way ticket to jail."

Red X looked Robin in the eye, taking one step closer as well, standing only a few feet from the Titan.

"I will find a way out of this," Red X promised Robin, placing the Xenothium vial in his belt.

Jinx moved to Red X. "So, what do you know about this Slade guy?" she asked as the image of Slade reappeared on the screen.

"Enough to respect him," Red X said with a hint of admiration as he gazed at the image. "I understand he knows how to get the job done."

"Not much without the Xenothium," Jinx teased. "Are you?"

"You don't know a thing about me," Red X said as he refilled and primed his gloves with the red substance.

"Something tells me there's more to you than just this," Jinx said, hitting a few buttons on the computer that brought up an almost barren file on Red X.

Red X grunted. "I do things my own way. You guys take yourselves way too seriously and you work way too slow," he stated. "You want me, this is how you get me."

"You know why you're here," Slade assumed.

"Same reason any two highly intelligent people meet face to face for the first time," Red X said as the two became surrounded by smoke and steam. "To start a partnership or to leave as rivals."

Robin folded his arms. "What's it gonna be, X?"

Red X held up his gloved hands. "It's Red X."
