Aaron sat in his room not wearing shirt typing on a computer that was wired to a disc shaped device that glowed as code entered its system. He finished entering the last bit of code before unplugging the device from his computer and standing up. He placed the disc on his chest wincing a little bit as it latched on to him. "Nano-armor, test 011." He inserted a small chip in to the side of the device and watched as it started to glow. Small bits of metal began to protrude from the disc as they latched on to Aaron's body and began covering his chest. Then, the disc's lights began flashing red as a bolt of electricity sent Aaron and the disc flying in opposite directions. Aaron hit a wall and fell to the floor while the disc sat across the room smoking. Aaron cringed as he forced himself off of the ground and examined his chest to see the singe marks and burns from where the metal had made contact. He walked over to the disc and picked it up setting it back at his desk before ejecting the chip and putting it in his pocket.

Azure walked in to his room. "I heard an explosion. Are you okay?"

Aaron immediately put a sheet over the device that was currently recharging. "I'm fine. I was just working on something."

Azure saw the cybernetic-like pattern on his chest where the device had latched on. "Are you sure?"

"It was just a little malfunction and some electrical shocks. Don't worry about it." Aaron walked over to his dresser and put on his shirt concealing the bruised area. "So what's going on?"

"Classes are cancelled tomorrow. Someone used a spell to turn all of the teachers in to frogs. They have detention while Brother Blood changes them all back."

"So what are you going to do tomorrow?"

"Well, I was thinking that you, me, Cheryl, and Rammage all go in to town for some fun."

"Are you sure that's a good idea?" Aaron asked raising an eyebrow.

"We're villains. We don't worry about what others think, and if someone attacks, we attack back. So, you in?"

"Yeah, I'm in." Aaron smiled a little bit.

"Cool, we'll meet outside the main building tomorrow. Rammage has a friend who can give us a ride."

"By ride you mean?..." Aaron paused looking at her.

"He's going to borrow his friend's car."

"That sounds fun. Can I come?" Lily asked jumping down from the ceiling startling Azure and Aaron.

"Uh, yeah, sure. What's your name?" Azure asked looking at her.

"Oh, I'm Lily. We have biology together." She smiled at Azure and winked at Aaron.

"Okay, well I'll see you guys tomorrow." Azure walked out of the room while Lily used her magic to close the door behind her.

"She seems nice." Lily smiled as she plopped down on Aaron's bed.

"I'm getting tired of you just showing up in here." Aaron glared at her as he started typing on his computer.

"You didn't call me. I got worried." She looked over at him.

"You gave me a slip of paper with your name on it." Aaron resumed typing on his computer while Lily walked over to one of his dresser drawers and began going through the contents inside. "And I would appreciate if you would keep your hands off my stuff." He said not even turning around to face her while she closed the drawer.

"You're so tense. Why don't you ever just try to have fun?" She asked picking up a small sphere sitting on top of the dresser.

"Because having fun means letting my guard down which is something I don't do. Now put that down."

"Why? Nothing's going to happen." Lily tossed the sphere which was a defective smoke bomb that exploded causing the room to be engulfed in gray. Aaron reached in to his desk and pulled out a small fan that he used to break up all of the smoke clouding the room. "Sorry." Lily said nervously. "So what are you working on?" She asked lifting up the sheet to reveal the glowing device.

"Project for a class." Aaron lied.

"So what's it supposed to do?" Lily asked picking it up and pushing the button on the side where nothing happened.

"Nothing without the key." Aaron told her as she set the device down.

"Well, I'll see you tomorrow. Try to be more fun." She teleported out of the room leaving Aaron to continue working on the machine.

Meanwhile…

"Things have been quiet. Shouldn't that Aaron kid have committed a crime or something by now?" Beast Boy asked pulling a tofu burger from the microwave and taking a large bite out of it.

"He isn't wrong. Slade has to be planning something, and there's no way he could be sneaking around us for so long." Robin said putting his hand on his chin as he began thinking.

"I have something." Cyborg said pulling up an article on the tower's main computer. "I still have a subscription to the HIVE Gazette from when I attended." He explained. "Looks like Aaron's a star pupil or something. He's on a bunch of athletics teams, gets good grades, and is very popular with the students and faculty."

"What's he doing there?" Robin asked making a fist.

"I don't really know, but whatever it is, I don't like it." Cyborg turned off the computer while the others gathered near him.

"So what are we going to do?" Raven asked walking over.

"We can't attack directly. He'd have a home turf advantage." Robin started trying to come up with a plan in his head.

"He is not hurting anyone. Why must we do something?" Starfire asked.

"I don't want to take the chance of letting him do something. Slade is sneaky, cunning, and manipulative. I can't let my guard down. Even if he is just going to school." Robin turned around and walked off in cold silence.

Cyborg saw the look of distraught on Starfire's face. "Don't worry about him. It's just a difficult subject for him with Slade. He just needs a little time to think."

Starfire nodded her head and walked away still worried for Robin.
