Tai: "Hey guys. I was planning on uploading this chapter yesterday."
Aka: "Why didn't you?"
Tai: "Well… I got an origami kit for Christmas. Just remembered I had it and was messing with it."
One Piece Oc: ~Rolls eyes in annoyance~
Tai: "Dude! I'll work on the One Piece story when I can! In case you haven't noticed, I had to rewrite the whole story after chapter four!"
Octavian: "You seemed stressed."
Hara: "I haven't noticed." ~kitty face~
Tai: "You know… forget it! DB, go."

The Eyes of Red and Heart of Black
Chapter 25: Origin Pt1, King's Tomb
"No…" Those were the words that escaped Octavian's mouth. The crypt led to a series of catacombs. The catacombs directly under the cemetery had candles and a coffin within it. The team and Hara walked up to Octavian who was crouching next to the coffin. Robin was looking around. He had a sense of familiarity. But the rest of the team was more concerned with Octavian.
Miss Martian walked up to the vampire. "Octavian?" she asked. Octavian turned to the group of teens. "What's that suppose to be?" Kid Flash asked. "It's the vampire's coffin, obviously." Artemis said. "Not just any vampire…" Octavian muttered. "It's the coffin of Count Dracula." A new voice, Batman obviously, said. "How did you get here so fast?" Superboy asked, but Octavian rushed up Batman and slammed him to the wall. "Do you know what you have done!" he shouted, "you have doomed thousands!"
"Octavian," Aqualad said, "Put him down!" "Yeah," Robin said, "the situation can't be that bad." Octavian let go of the dark knight and walked up to Robin. "You have no idea…" he growled, "the king of vampires was the only being in the world that could stop Etille." With that Octavian began to walk away, but was stopped by Miss Martian's telekinesis. "Why is that?" she asked. Octavian struggled to break free, and you know that it wasn't going to happen. "I'll tell you." Hara said. Everyone turned to hear what she had to say. And before that could happen…
"Move!" Batman shouted. BOOM! The explosion was from a grenade, thrown by an eighteen-year-old in probably the most awesome looking costume ever. He wore a red spandex body suit highlighted with tiger stripes, metal gauntlets over black gloves, trunks, shoulder pads and winged-boots with a purple belt lined with three more grenades. His mask was just like Batman's, but it covered his whole face, and the pointed 'ears' were a little longer.
"So…" he said in a deep voice, "y'all be the bunch who messed my girl's bird hunt." He clenched his fists, making three claw-like blades to pop out of the gauntlets on his arms. "Ya gonna wish ya didn't." (Before you ask, yes, this guy is a Wolverine parody.) He leaped at the team, but Batman threw a smoke bomb, and the team escaped to the surface.
"Batman to Watchtower." Batman said as the team boarded the Bio-ship, "rendezvous at Gotham Cemetery." The team was told to return to the cave. As they flew in that direction, everyone listened as Hara continued her explanation. "Etille is a man who plans to remove from the world, all creatures like Octavian and I." she said. "What does that mean?" Artemis asked. "Monsters, Cryptics, Super-natural creatures." Octavian said simply. "And you didn't tell us this before why?" Kid Flash asked.
Octavian looked at the speedster. "I have been shunned by humans for over a hundred years," he said bitterly, "apologizes for my lack of trust." Aqualad decided to change the subject. "Are there any others we should know about?" Hara nodded. "Well, over there is a place." She was pointing to a floral shop. The team was going to ask why, but an explosion caused them to crash into the road. They ran into the shop to avoid any more attacks. And they were immediately engulfed in a yellow light and disappeared.
Tai: "Ok, I'm sorry this chapter is so short."
Aka: "Why is that?"
Tai: "The truth is I have to deal with a few things, and I won't be able update for a while."
Octavian: "This was all you could type at the time?"
Tai: "Yeah… Sorry."
Aka: "Whatever, I just want you to update the Bobobo story."
Tai: "I'll get to that and the One Piece story when I can!"
Hara: "I guess we'll see you guys later!" ~kitty face~
