Son of Cyborg Chapter Six: Tragedy after Truimph
Cyborg decided to spend the rest of the night sleeping on the couch as Simon slept in his bedroom. The next day Simon went up to his dad and presented him with a tray filled with Waffles, Bacon, and Orange Juice. "Is this for me?" asked a surprised Cyborg. "Yeah Dad, thought I could do something for you." said Simon smiling. The other Titans began to enter the Main room, they saw Cyborg and Simon eating their breakfast. "Uncle Cy, What's up?" said Bruce as he and the other Titans came towards him. "I'm doing fine guys. responded Cyborg.
"How is Grandpa, and Terry doing?" asked Stacy. (Terry is the next gen Batman (Batman Beyond), and Bruce helps train the new Justice League Members) "They are both doing good." said Cyborg. "Did you get Wonder Woman's Autograph for me?" asked Tina with a smile. "Yeah I did, and here you go." said Cyborg as he gave her the autograph. "And Convict, I found this old book in Western China that maybe good to you." said Cyborg as he handed the book to Convict. "Wow!, an actual Tome of the first great Asian Shaman of Dark Arts, Thanks!" said Convict who was partly happy upon seeing the rare book. "Ain't my dad the coolest?" said Simon, acting a little bit cocky.
"Listen Simon, I want you to have this." said Cyborg as he gave Simon a small framed picture of himself, and Jenny. "Wow, Thanks Dad." said Simon as he hugged his dad.
Suddenly, an alarm went off around the building. "Troubles brewing at the First American Bank." said Tina. "All right, Titans Go!" yelled Cyborg as he and the rest of the team began to leave the tower. "Simon, stay here." said Cyborg. "But." "But nothing, I don't want to lose you just as I just met you." said a stern Cyborg. As the Titans had left the Tower heading for the Bank, Simon just sat on the couch and watched some television hoping the others would be okay.
The bank was being robbed by a combination of a man wearing a Mechanical suit being powered by Kilowatt. "All right bub, Give me the cash and no one gets hurt." said the robber.
just as he grabbed the bag, the Bank doors busted open, and the Titans appeared. "Freeze!" yelled Crimson Robin. "Darn it!, I thought you guys would be handling another case." said the robber.
"Who are you anyway, haven't seen your face around here." said Cyborg. "Names Shockz, and if you know what's good for ya, better just leave now." said Shockz as he grabbed some sort of electronic pistol out of his pocket, and shot a bolt of lightning at the team. "Scatter!" yelled Lady Beastmaster as she morphed into a hawk to get away from the blast.
Sapphire dodged the blast, and shot a Sapphire bolt at Shockz, but he uses the pistol again to negate the blast. "Amazing how he blocked it using another bolt." said Sapphire before she was knocked out by the same bolt from behind. "Okay, if want a fight, You got it." said Crimson Robin as he pull out small Boomerang, and threw it. the Boomerang then changed into an electric spike, and destroyed the pistol. "Not bad, but try this!" yelled Shockz as he used an electrical blast onto Crimson Robin. "CR!" screamed Lady Beastmaster as she decided to morph into an Electric Eel. "Cyborg, fire me onto Shockz." said Lady Beastmaster. "Got it!" agreed Cyborg. Cyborg grabbed the Eel (that is LBM) and shot her out of his Arm Cannon. "Booya!" said Cyborg, and Lady Beastmaster as she landed onto Shockz.
"Ha!, You think a little Electricity will stop me?" asked Shockz. "No, this is." said Cyborg. "Azarath Metrion Zinthos!" said Convict as he uses his psychic powers to send two flowing streams of water at Shockz, incapscitating him. "Nice one Convict!" said Cyborg giving him a thumbs up. Suddenly, Shockz got back up, and shot another electirc blast from his hand towards Convict, knocking him out. Shockz then throws Lady Beastmaster (still in Electric Eel form) at the wall, causing her to switch back into her human form, and knocking her out as well. "Listen here, You think a little H2O is gonna stop me?, Think again"
said Shockz as he uses both hands to create a super Electrical blast to subdue Cyborg. Meanwhile, Simon was watching a wrestling show when he changed the channel to the Jump City News.
"This just in, The Teen Titans have been held hostage!" said ther lead News Reporter. "What!" said Simon not beleiving what had just been said on the television. "It seems that a villian calling himself Shockz has defeated, and captured the four members, including the former member of the team, and current member of the Justice League Cyborg." reported the Anchorman. "Dad!" yelled out Simon. "I just got word that Shockz has just released a demand that if he doesn't get all the money in the bank, and a getaway copter, he will destroy the Titans starting with Cyborg." "No he won't." said Simon sternly. As he said that, Simon began to comb through the tower, and took whatever items he seemed, and combined them to make some weaponry, and then grabbed some insulated items, and rubber gloves, and secured them onto his arms, and legs. Finally, he grabs a rubber mask to put on his face.
Simon "borrowed" a small transportation pod to take him to where the Titans, and his father were being held at. "Don't worry dad, I'm coming." said a determined Simon. Meanwhile, the Titans and Cyborg were tied up using specialized Electrical chains that shorted each of their abilities. "Now to end this." said Shockz as he readied his hands to shoot an electrical blast right at Cyborg. as he was about to do it, a sonic cannon came at him, and knocked him to the wall.
the figure then walked into the wearing a red rubber mask, and a dark gray, and black suit partly made of rubber, and insulation. the figure also had a few other weapons on itself as well. "Hey guys, glad to see me?" said the voice as the figure pulled it's mask off revealin that to be Simon. "Simon, Glad that at least you came." said Sapphire. "Son!, get us free as quick as you can." said Cyborg trying to break free. "I'll get you out as fast as I." said Simon before he was hit in the back.
"Simon!, No!" screamed Cyborg as he suddenly found the strength to break trough the chains, stood over Simon, protecting him from any other blasts. "Why are you protecting that fool?" said Shockz. "Because, that fool is my son!" said Cyborg sternly as he shot a Sonic blast so powerful, it destroyed Shockz's electrical suit. Shockz was knocked out, and the police had arrested Shockz. "Cyborg then checked on his son whom was still injured. "Simon, you okay?" said a worried Cyborg. "Dad?, it's time." said Simon as he whispered something else into Cyborg's ear. "Are you sure that is what you want?" asked Cyborg. "I think it's the only thing left for me." replied Simon weakly. "Okay son, if that is what you want." Cyborg replied to his hurt son as he picked him up, and started to carry him. "Where are you going?" asked Crimson Robin. "We're going home." said Cyborg. "I'm the only one to help him now."
