Slade fell down from nowhere and landed in front of Robin. Robin tackled him in close combat, then tripped over Slades foot. He grabbed Slade and pulled him down with him. Slade landed on Robin and took a boomerang from Robins belt, and held the blade to Robins face. Robin flinched.

Slade put the blade jently on Robins skin, and said, "Robin, why do you interfere with my personal business?"

"Because playing with other peoples lives like they are part of a game is no business of yours, Slade."

"Are you sure about that? Because you seem to be messing with peoples lives quite a lot, saving them, making them last longer... See, all of you heroes have the cheek to call us evil."

Robin narrowed his eyes. "You are a killer. You KILLED my PARENTS!"

Slade pulled Robins communicator from his belt, carefully, so that Robin didn't notice. He spoke to keep Robin occupied. "You save people lives, in doing that you destroy the families hearts once, in knowing that they were so close to dying, then when they die for real you put the hearts through that much torture twice."

"I put nobody through torture! You put me through torture, youre here right now, and to me THAT is torture!"

"Hush, Robin, Calm down." He tapped Robins cheek with the boomerang to remind him that it was there. If Slade wanted Robin to calm down, talking with that stupid annoying voice he had wasn't helping. Slade slipped the communicator into his own hidden pocket.

Robin breathed in and held his breath. They glared at each other for a while, then Robin hopped up being careful and let Slade fall off of him. Then they wrestled, and Slade jumped off the building and into a dark alley. He jumped over a fence and away into the night.

Coward.

Robin pulled out his communicator-- Wait, where was it? He looked all over his belt, and looked around the roof of the building he had just fought on.

Nothing.

He ran back to Titans Tower.


Beastboy landed on a pavement next to a run down petrol station and decided that he would never be able to find Breeze. Then he turned into a dog. He sniffed about, hoping that maybe he would catch some kind of smell that reminded him of Breeze. Or maybe he would catch a chill. He laughed to himself. He went past several shops, through several streets, past a group of late night partiers when he caught the scent of Breeze.

-10 minutes later-

Beastboy stopped at the door of a shop. It had fancy writing on the sign. He transformed back into a person and opened the door. There was an old lady sitting at the till. Oh, great. Old people. Beastboy could never actually understand what they talked about, and they never understood him. Well he would have to try.

"Um, is my friend in here? You know, wings, freezing cold, always jumping about..."

"Oh, yes. She came in here not long ago. I think she was trying to find you. Shes having a rest, you know you probably should too. Look at the time!"

"Really? Wow! Um, do you think she is awake?"

"No, do you want me to get her up?"

"That's a good idea,"

The old lady walked into a door behind the till. There was fancy writing there as well.

-10 minutes later-

Breeze came through the door followed by the old lady. Breeze looked tired. Beastboy noticed she wasn't wearing shoes. "Breeze wheres your shoes?"

|Breeze yawned. "I dont have any, well I do, but i never usually wear any... dont need to, I can fly."

"I can fly but i wear shoes,"

"Yours disappear."

"Umm, but thats not the point."

Breeze turned and waved. "Bye, Bertha," she said. "Thanks for letting me stay over,"

"Its alright, dear. Get home safely!" said Bertha.

When the door closed, Beastboy asked breeze about Bertha, the old lady. "Do you know her?"

Breeze shrugged. "I do now,"

"Dude!"

"Um, yeah?"

"You cant do that!!"

"sure I can, why not?" Breeze asked.

"You don't even know her!"

"Yeah I do,"

"5 Minutes isn't knowing someone!"

"You and your team seem to think so."

"...That's not the point..."

"Its exactly the same thing. Now, should we find the others or go back to the tower?"

Beastboy pulled out his communicator. Starfire was on the screen. "Hey Star, where are you?" He asked.

Starfire frowned. Then the screen blanked.


Starfire snapped her communicator shut on Beastboys question. Where was Robin? "Blizzard,"

"Huh? Yeah?" He looked kind of shocked for a moment.

"We're going back to find Robin." She turned. Kiera yelped.

Blizzard was left behind for a second until he turned, and started to follow Star from a few meters behind. He could see everything, even though it was dark. So many street lights.

Starfire landed on the roof that Robin had jumped onto. She ran across a few more rooftops, but she couldn't find him. She sat down and hugged her knees. Kiera looked over the edge of the building. they were high up... Where was he?

Blizzard landed next to Starfire. "Hey," he said, trying to put his hand somewhere comfortable. "We're gonna find Robin,"

Starfire seemed to ignore him.

"We should wait for him at the tower,"

Starfire said nothing, but she turned her back.

"What about your communicator?" Blizzard asked, following her around.

Silence.

"Umm..."

"Go away!" She suddenly yelled. Wow, unexpected.

"Yaauuh, okay!"

Starfire stood up looking angry at Blizzard. Her hands and eyes glowed green.

Blizzard knew he had to move, and fast, or something would happen, oh dear...

Then Blizzard was hit with an array of green starbolts and the like. He jumped. One hit him in the air. He got pushed back by it, and then he was falling, Then Starfire was coming towards him, probably to make sure he died. He was going down fast, too fast to remember that he had wings, then he was caught by Starfire.

"Go away." She dropped him.

"Um, okay," Then he started to walk away backwards.

"Leave the Titans. Leave us all alone."

That hit him. "But, what about,"

And then she was gone.

Blizzard flew back up to the top of the building. Kiera was there. How could he get her down? Did it matter? If he wasnt a hero anymore? But he could still be his own hero... Right?
