The morning sunrise kissed the horizon. The red and orange colors started to bleed into the sky melting with the dark blue. I couldn't help but think of Angel and I, the image before me was a perfect example of us and what we were. My thoughts were interuppted by the woman herself.

Angel had walked up beside me, locked her hand with mine. "It's time to go Kyd. We don't have any time to spare if we want to get to Paris on time."

I looked down at my feet, I didn't want to leave this perfect moment but I knew I had to. I looked once more at the horizon and squeezed Angel's hand tighter as we left to meet with the others.

We made it to Paris successfully despite the severe annoyance of traveling long distances with Gizmo. I walked along with Angel and Billy in the massive halls of the Brotherhood of Evil's base. Gray pillars lined the passageways and lit torches provided just a dim enough glow to make out the engravings that were etched into the pillars. Grand was an understatement.

An uneasy feeling filled my stomach as we walked into the main room. I was finally going to meet the Brotherhood of Evil. They were like the Hollywood celebrities of the villians world, and I was going to work for them.

Most of the other villians stood together in the oversized room. All of them trying to catch a glimpse of the members of the Brotherhood. The crowd was huming in excitement waiting for the announcements.

"Alright ladies and gentlemen, as you all know we have gathered you all here today to defeat the Teen Titans." Madam Rouge said monotonously in her thick accent. The whispers started to spread throughout the crowd even louder now. "Hush now children we have no time for that!" Rouge snapped.

"It is quite alright. It shows excitement for our world domination. Please stand by for your orders. The Titans are in a very vunerable state and we shall defeat them one by one." The Brain's robotic voice echoed throughout the room, instantly causing the crowd to silence. It sent chills down my spine.

We fulfilled our orders and one by one captured Teen Titans were brought back to the base and frozen. Things were looking great for the Brotherhood, even when Beast Boy and company tried a last ditch effort to stop us, it was laughable. With Robin frozen, I was flying high with the rest of the villians. We decided not to freeze Mas, we found it more entertaining to use him as a frisbee and toss him around the room. Billy rolled around the room in laughter slapping his knee out of pure amusement. The others and I gathered around the other non-frozen Titans and a smirk crossed my mouth. 'Now this should be good' I snickered to myself. Angel appeared at my side with a broad grin, "Ready to play some games?" My skin prickled, this was the most fun I have had in a looong time.

I watched Angel as she looked over my shoulder and her face started to twist into shock. She cursed under her breath, "Those damn kids are back again." My eyes followed to see what she was talking about.

Titans.

Titans were everywhere. Clearly this battle was far from over.

I gritted my teeth, and ran into the heart of the battle. I set my sights on Bumble Bee, she had corned Mammoth with her stingers. I pushed myself of the ground and aimed my boot at her jaw. I heard the thud and watched her fall to ground. Mammoth smiled at me and patted my shoulder in thanks and ran off.

Returning my gaze to the battlefield, I searched for my teammates. Trying to find where I could lend a hand. Finally Angel's wings caught my eye on the edge of the thining crowd. Thunder had her pinned to the ground. I ran at full speed over to her, ready to strike Thunder with my full force. Thunder raised his arms above his head and Angel shrieked in horror. Split seconds went by and I realized I could not reach her in time.

Thunder moved his arms downward and my heart sank even further. I closed my eyes and waited for the thunder clap. It felt like an enternity went by but the sound never came. I looked up in shock to see what had happened. Thunder layed out on the floor with his arms tied behind his back with a red cord.

No, not a red cord. A red x.

"Gotta be faster than that Kyd!" Red X quipped at me, "I think you own me some gratitude." Before I could make a move on him he vanished into the crowd.

'That prick'

My blood burned hotter than the sun in the Sahara desert but I had to shake it off. Finding my team was the priority. Angel must have went back to fight because she was gone.

"Kyd!"

"Kyd wait up!" See-More shouted emerging from the crowd. Soon Gizmo, Billy and Mammoth joined us.

"I think it's time we bow out guys!" Gizmo said. I agreed, this fight was tanking on us fast.

We made our way to the exit only to be stopped by everybodies favorite speedster, Kid Flash.

"Leaving the party so soon?" Kid asked "I thought you might wanna stick around and watch me and my friend here clean house."

"JINX?! You're with him!? How could you?" Gizmo screeched as his face turned red.

"Sorry guys but I have a new calling" Jinx snapped her fingers and a pink wave of energy tossed us across the room.

The force of the impact knocked me out momentarily and then everything started to blur. Images started to fade into each other until it all went black.
