Chapter 3

The next day Slade put his plan into action. He unleashed Red X into the city causing destruction and mayhem throughout it.

All Slade was waiting for was either the Titans or the invisible force to show. Either way he would get rid of one of them today. Which ever one he did didn't matter to him.

It would be even better for him both of them showed up. He could get rid of them all at once. If this force ever came, he was prepared.

He gave his new creation Red X heat vision goggles. As long as this force was moving, Red X would catch him. Slade was sure of this.

The first one on the scene turned out to be the Titans. "What are you doing this time, Slade?" asked Cyborg. "Oh, you know. Destroying the city as usual."

"Where's Robin? Did you lose track of him again?" "No! We just can't find him..." said Beastboy. "I like you to meet my new creation."

Slade moved away so the Titans could see Red X. "Just him, we can take him!" said Beastboy as he changed his form into a rhino, charging straight for him.

Red X knew was just wasting his own energy by charging at him. It was useless to defeat Red X like this. At the last second Red x moved out of the way and into the air.

He was right above Beastboy, the perfect place for an attack. He threw weapons at him at a fast speed until Beastboy was knocked out and tied up.

Red X moved so fast the Titans barely had any time to react. By the time he reached them they were too late.

Red X attacked all of them at once and before any of the Titans knew it they were all unconscious as well. They just couldn't believe how fast they were defeated.

They had only been fight for less than a minute and they were all already unconscious.

He defeated them all easily. He needed more of a challenge. All of this was just child's play to him. It was all just too easy to him.

Danny was on the outskirts of Jump City just thinking. He was flying high in the sky, but all he could think about were the Titans.

'If they can't even protect their own city, they shouldn't be super heroes. But why did I help them? This is their problem not mine. Why can't I...'

But Danny couldn't finish his thought because he heard all of the screaming coming from the city. He knew something was wrong, nothing ever got this bad in Jump City.

There were just hundreds of people screaming. He turned invisible once again and followed the direction all of the people screaming were coming from.

But Danny was never prepared for what he saw once he got there. All of the Titans were unconscious when he got there. But something didn't make any sense to him.

'But wait, weren't there five Titans before? Where is the other one? And who caused all of this?' While Danny was thinking how all of this could happen.

He didn't noticed Red X coming from right behind him. As soon as Red X found a heat signal, he went straight forward to attack it.

He threw his sharp weapons at Danny. The weapon hit Danny across his right arm. He knew he should have been paying better attention to his surroundings.

But he was sure to dodge the next attack from Red X. He was a little surprised he actually did because of how fast they were.

Then Danny launched some attacks of his own toward Red X. He threw some ecto blasts at him. Most of them hit him much to Red X's irritation.

So he decided to release his finishing move he used with all of the Titans. The attack hit Danny dead on. Luckily, he didn't share the same fate as the Titans.

But the attack did drop his invisibility. Once Slade saw this so called force, he was angry. "Just a kid almost defeated me?" It was then that Danny acknowledge Slade's presence.

"You again." But Danny stopped talking to Slade to draw his attention back to Red X. He did just in time to dodge another attack.

This battle right now was pointless. At this rate Danny would become too exhausted to fight any longer. So he had only one choice left.

He had to do it, to save the Titans at the very least. He just really hated his superhero personality right now. It if wasn't for it he wouldn't be in this situation right now.

So his next attack was of course his most powerful. His ghostly wail that could stop any enemy. Once he activated his ghostly wail, Red X couldn't escape it.

Where would he run anyway? The ghostly wail took down everything in it's path including Slade. The wail knocked out Slade and cut Red X's mask in half.

Red X was still standing and conscious, but just barely long enough for the Titans to see their leader's face behind the mask looking straight towards them. "Robin?" asked Starfire.

None of the Titans couldn't believe it was really him. He was still missing after all wasn't he? The Titans woke up half way through the battle.

They were surprised to find out the mysterious force was closer to human than any of them thought would be.

But they were even more surprised to find out they were attacked and defeated by their own leader. How could this happen? They all trusted Robin with their life's.

Danny was thinking about what just occurred before his eyes. 'Wasn't the leader of the Titans named Robin too? Then that means...'

Danny didn't want to finish that thought. It was pretty hard to believe a superhero could turn into a villain. But then again this wasn't his problem now was it?

No, it was the Titans. They should be able to figure this out on their own right? He just couldn't help, but glance at the Titans and seeing their shocked expressions.

He felt sorry for them for the predicament they were in. He truly did, but he knew he couldn't help them. But he just had to ask them this one question to make sure.

"Are all of you alright?" This brought the Titans attention back to Danny. "Yes, we'll be okay." Raven answered this question for everyone. She knew they were too shaken up about Robin to think straight.

It was then that Cyborg and Beastboy noticed something. "Where's Slade?" Cyborg asked. "Robin's gone too!" said Beastboy.

While they were all busy thinking why Robin who do this. When Red X awoke he slipped away, out of their sights with Slade.

Danny was going to fly out of there, but he realized something just a little too late. 'I used all of my energy fighting him. Of course, this would only happen to me. Everything always does. So why shouldn't this time be any different?' these were Danny's last thoughts as he collapsed of exhaustion and slowly slipped into unconsciousness.

And the last words he heard, before he fell completely unconscious were "Are you okay?"
