Déjà vu
Chapter 4
Back in Jump City, Cyborg was patrolling the city, looking for Gizmo. Control Freak agreed to help Cy just because he wanted his remote back to normal (it didn't work since the Titans vanished) and knew it was better to be allied with him then fighting against him (for the time being).
"I think we should go look at H.I.V.E Academy," Cyborg suggested. "It's the most logical place to find him."
"Logical: yes. Hiding: no!" Control Freak argued. "If I know Gizmo (and I do) and if he knows about the Titans, then that is the first place he knows we'll search, so it's the last place we'll go."
"How are you so sure?" Cyborg countered, still not trusting him.
"Seeing as we're both 'villains'," Control Freak made quotation marks in the air. "We think alike when it comes to preventing getting caught from you lot." Cyborg snorted.
"Okay, so where do you suggest Gizmo would be?" Control Freak challenged. Cyborg opened his mouth, but closed it again, not wanting a fight. If they wanted to find Gizmo, they would have to figure out a way to get along with each other. Cyborg thought for a moment. If I were Gizmo, Cyborg pondered, where would I hide? Thin it clicked.
"The first place we have to look would be the last place would, right?" Cy asked.
"Yeah….." Control Freak answered.
"And the last place would be—the pizzeria! That twerp hates pizza, so he wouldn't expect us searching around the area for him!" Control Freak smiled.
"Now you're thinking like a villain!"
A few minutes later, the two boys arrived at the local pizza shop in search of their little "friend"
"How did you know he hated pizza?" Control Freak asked.
"Well, since I see his friend here but not him that gives you a pretty good hint. Also, once I was playing an online video game, and the name of my opponent was evil-pizza. Later that day, I hacked into the account and found out it was Gizmo's. Doesn't take much to put two and two together." Cyborg explained, opening the door to the restaurant.
"I always wondered why he tried to scare me with his pizza inventions. Too bad for him I absolutely love the meat lover's pizza!" Control Freak laughed.
"Hey, that's the best! I try to get BB to eat it, but he never agrees."
"Maybe he thinks he is eating one of his fellow brothers or something." They both laughed as if they have always joked about Beast Boy forever. It was weird to see a villain and a hero laughing together, but desperate times calls for desperate measures.
"Now, where would that little twerp be…." Cyborg thought out loud. He heard his partner laugh. He looked at him quickly, but Control Freak only shook his head and chuckled some more. Cyborg looked over to where his ally was pointing, and couldn't help but laugh as well. Where else would you find a young billion who is good with electrons, then at a video machine? When the young teenagers approached Gizmo, the young villain was yelling at the screen that read GAME OVER.
"You stupid hunk of junk! I had a clear shot but you didn't $$^#$&^," Gizmo finished with some naughty words. He was about to play another game, but cyborg pulled the plug. Gizmo was so engrossed in the game that he didn't see cyborg actually pull it.
"What?" Gizmo screamed, causing several people to turn around and see what the matter was. "You stupid game! I swear, I will destroy more than your plug-" Gizmo was interrupted with a tap on his shoulder. He whirled around and realized slightly when he saw Control Freak. "Oh, it's you. What do you want?"
"It's not what I want," Control Freak corrected.
"It's what we want," Cyborg said, coming out from behind the video slot. "And we want to know what you did to my teammates."
"And my remote!" Control Freak added.
"And what makes you boogie brains think I'll help you?" Gizmo sneered. The two friends just smiled.
"Cause if you won't, too bad. You don't have a choice." And with that, the two new allies ganged up on Gizmo, determined to make him talk. If not, there are always plenty of video games of his for them to destroy…..
