Forgotten Names

This really has become a forgotten Name! Lol.

I did up all of the chapters, if you wanna read back, they make far more sense now.

I understand if you don't review, or if you don't remember this story, I've been writing it since I was 13, and I'm 15 now...that's a fair amount of time, and what a cocky 13/14 year old I was.

I feel I have improved now as a writer/fan-fictioner, so please give this story one last chance.

Enjoy,

Recap

The performer returned the grin, "The same guys who got Rae and Bee...dead guys."

Nightwing spluttered out water from his mouth. He had been drinking it to calm down. Beast Boy smiled. Cyborg fainted. Nightwing just looked at Beast Boy.

"I have a lot of explaining to do...don't I?"

Cyborg shut his eyes in horror, and ran his fingers over his scalp. He shook his head slowly, while Nightwing stood in the corner of the room, smirking. The spiked milk had really gotten him good. Beast Boy shuffled uncomfortably, and coughed, trying to make himself visible.

"Look, Cy...I..."

Cyborg shook his head again, and slowly opened his eyes. He bit his lip, "I get it. It's fine. What I want to know is why you didn't stop them."

Beast Boy sighed, "It's not easy, coming back into the game, after what, ten-"

"Twenty" Nightwing interjected.

"Yeah, twenty years. I was scared, so I-"

"So you did what we all would've done at first." Cyborg ended, looking crestfallen. He placed a hand onto Beast Boy's shoulder. The man shrugged it off, and ran his hand through his hair. "That doesn't make it any better- but let me finish explaining."

Beast Boy told Cyborg, and Nightwing (who was rolling around on the floor) about what he had seen, or more who he had seen. Cyborg raised an eyebrow, but listened. Nightwing, on the other hand, didn't quite understand Garfield's over-dramatic story, "So, Kid Flash, Jinx, and Herald all abducted Raven and Bee?" He asked, chuckling slightly, "I don't believe it for a second, I mean, for starters, you probably don't even know, but-"

"KF, Jinx and Herald are dead." Beast Boy waved his hand and continued, "I'm fully aware, the thing is, it was kind of obvious- they're like corpses, dude. Pasty and all they did was hiss. They had the darkest eyes and the weirdest smiles...and..."Beast Boy shuddered, and cringed, trying to wipe the image from his mind. Cyborg moaned, "So this shadow guy, can bring people back from the dead?"

"I don't think so- actually, I reckon he never killed them in the first place." Nightwing interrupted, glancing at a shadow on his wall, "I think he's controlling them. I think this guy is just getting others to do his dirty work, but all we know now is-"

A sudden knocking butted-into Nightwing's speech. "It's just the drugs talking," Cyborg stated to Beast Boy, who looked confused, as he stumbled towards the door. Raven burst in, looking furious.

"Corinna...nicely placed shadow!" The watching man hissed, as he glared at a screen. "They can't even tell...and Raven is truly playing her par- CORRINNA, STOP THEM!" The man pointed at his screen, in fury, watching as Beast Boy tackled Raven to the ground, "It's not her!" He shot, as Cyborg and Nightwing held him back.

The room went cold and silent as the man muted his speakers, "People like that, ALWAYS get in my way. As if little old me, would take one of the most important members of their club..." The man tutted and glanced at the screen, as Raven started shouting inaudible things at a frenzied Beast Boy. "They need Raven...can't say the same about..."

He clicked his fingers, and two looming bodies entered the room. Corrinna, followed closely by none-other than Bumble Bee, who looked scared stiff. "Take a seat," The man gestured to a small stool in the centre of the room, facing-planting impatiently as Corrinna sat down, "Not you, idiot. You should be working!" He shook his head and took out a small doll; a sculpted figurine, with a Spanish flair about it. It resembled Corrinna, with her aquiline nose and dark eyes. The man threw the doll's arms back, and Corrinna screamed in agony as her own arms turned in their sockets. He moved the doll's high-heeled feet, and Corrinna started walking, against her own will, out of the room. She sobbed clearly, until the door shut, "Someone's getting a bit hard to control, am I right?" The shadowed man threw the doll into his desk drawer, and glanced at Karen, who was stood by the stool, determined not to follow the man's lead.

"You'll stand? Fine by me. I just have a few...questions." The man smirked, and stuck his tongue out slightly, as Karen flinched, "Mother to four, I'm correct? Bumble Bee? Married to Cyborg? Please, do stop me If you find a fault...Doctor, Titans West...leadership qualities are divine..." Karen held her ground, "These don't sound like questions to me; let my kids go, stop all this shit...and leave me alone."

The man smirked, and turned in his chair, "Honey, you can't just go around making demands, I find that incredibly rude. I've found use so far for everyone...and I'll find a use for you. I didn't take Raven in the end, because she's an important pawn in my game...you on the other hand..." The man shrugged, and glanced at Bumble Bee, who had finally taken a seat. The man chewed slightly on his dry bottom lip, and ran a pointed finger-nail over his prominent nose. "I actually can't seem to think of how you could possibly be a virtue to your team...and I'll make this game fun. You can go back to your delightful children, and I'll let two of my captives go...because in honesty, you're worthless, boring. I only see that you would fight-me."

"I sure as hell will!" Bumble Bee piped up, trying to rise from her chair. The man chuckled, and raised an eyebrow, "You're seriously going to try? Okay...go ahead." He clapped his hand slowly, and the door slid open, "Go on, try and get away." Bumble Bee froze images of Virgil, and Tiana and Kobe and Cole flooded into her mind, they were smiling, they were asking her to join them, they told her they missed her. Karen stopped moving, and she raised her head slightly to glare at the man, who raised his eyebrows, as if completely innocent, "I'm surprised they even somewhat remember you. Birdie Boy's kids don't even remember they have a dad," He smirked, and added, "Neither do yours, though you seemed to be too much of a prominent figure to be completely erased."

Bumble Bee opened her mouth to retort, but the man just motioned with his hand for her to go. "They're in the room to the left." Karen's chair slid across the floor without her doing anything, she made sharp turns, and just as she reached the door, she stopped, "Who the hell are you?" The man smirked, "Your biggest nightmare." He sneered as Karen's chair fell into a small hole in the ground. He listened to her scream, he heard a smash, and then he sat back down at his desk, again looking at the screen.

Beast Boy had calmed down, though he was still eyeing Raven suspiciously as she spoke in her mono-tone voice, "...and he let me go, because apparently, I'm going to be very useful."

Nightwing cursed under his breath, "I wish we had a witch on our team, we could check for curses," Cyborg nodded, and glanced at Raven with a sad expression, "We could do with making sure she isn't triggered, and we need to check if she's been controlled by an exterior force..."

Beast Boy raised an eyebrow, "She can hear you guys, maybe if you want to give everything away to who ever's controlling her, you should talk LOUDER." He huffed and glared at Raven, who shut her eyes, "I'm not being controlled."

"But we have no way of knowing that, Rae." Cyborg stated, crouching to look into her violet eyes, "Sorry Rae. We're only doing this as a precaution."

After Cyborg had used medical hypnosis on Raven, and Nightwing had thrown all his interrogation tricks at her, they were satisfied that their team-mate, was actually their team-mate. Though Beast Boy crossed his arms and pouted, no one could hide the fact that Raven was an incredible asset to the team. They needed her now more than ever.

Nightwing seemed to be returning to his usual self, "Phase 2- we've found Beast Boy, and we'll find our kids with the man. So you can probably guess what we need to do..."

Beast Boy nodded, made eye contact with Cyborg, and stated, matter-of-factly, "Discuss this over pizza." He seemed to be the only one in the room who didn't understand what the plan was. They needed to look for the man, understand their situation before they attacked...but they would attack.

Nightwing rubbed the crook of his nose, and sent a death-glare the changelings way, "Can you still turn into- can you still control your...erm...powers?"

Beast Boy shrugged and slid a green ring from his fingers. In his place stood a far more muscled then they remembered green man. His pointed ears were most sculpted, and his face lacked the roundness it had once prided itself upon. Chiselled features, a prominent chin and a somewhat upturned nose greeted his team-mates. His moss eyes sped around the room, taking everything in, as if it was new to him. He lifted his hands from his sides, and looked himself over. "I can't get used to this." He laughed; the team was glad to hear that it was the same as ever, high and twinkling. Beast Boy quickly turned into a cat, and Raven impulsively cooed, hitting herself as she did. The green cat quickly curved back into a man, who chuckled. He clicked his fingers and cracked his back, while wincing, "Geez, I haven't done that in about five years."

Nightwing raised an eyebrow, "Glad to see that you still have the basics." Beast Boy crouched down, and placed the green ring back onto his finger, standing up as Garfield Logan, "Trust me on this one, Robin,"

"Nightwing" Everyone in the room corrected. Garfield brushed it off, smiling, and persisted, "I'll work on something cool for next time...I could do it a few years back and it might come in handy."

"Right- but at the moment, we have to search for possible suspects." Nightwing affirmed, staring at Beast Boy, who bobbed his head up and down.

Raven moved across the room, to the window, making a strange gasping noise. Cyborg turned his head to her, "You okay, Rae?" Raven raised her eyebrows and placed her hands to the window. Beast Boy slowly walked, and looked out of the paned glass, "What are we looking at?"

Cyborg and Nightwing joined the two, also gasping as Raven had done, "Get them up here." Nightwing stated, throwing his hands up. Raven was pressed to the window in shock. Beast Boy gave a quizzical look to Cyborg, who bolted from the room. Beast Boy watched him run up to two red-haired girls, "Hey, you know what's funny?" Beast Boy started, "They look like two girls who were on my set a few weeks back." Raven moved from the window, to gaze at Beast Boy, "What do you mean?" She turned her head to face Nightwing, "They were with us...they've been with us since the team got back together."

Nightwing looked outside again, Cyborg and the twins were gone. He heard quick steps coming up the stairs, and the door flung open. Cyborg was elated, holding two pink-eyes girls. One who looked like she was going to murder the man, and the other who was extremely happy. Cheyne struggled free of Cyborgs grasp, and smirked, "No shadows can hold us." Fawn giggled nodding, "Cyborg, Nightwing your kids are great!" The twins nodded in unison. Cyborg and Nightwing looked confused; Cheyne made her way towards Raven, and lightly hugged her. Fawn smiled, and craned her neck to look at Garfield, who she had only just noticed. Beast Boy cocked his head, "They look EXACTLY like two girls on my set a few weeks back." Fawn's pupils dilated in shock, and Cheyne held her ground.

Beast Boy eyed the duo suspiciously, "Kathy and Kate?" He asked, biting his lip. Fawn quickly wobbled her head, "You have the wrong two, Mr Logan" Cheyne kneed her sister in the side, shaking her head in annoyance.

Raven looked upset, "What's going on here? How do you know Be-" Beast Boy glanced at Raven in shock, obviously he didn't want his identity out so soon. Nightwing continued in Raven's place, "How do you know Mr Logan, girls?"

Cheyne rolled her eyes, "We don't."

Cyborg smirked and grabbed Cheyne and Fawn's shoulders, "I believe them!" He stated, obviously happy that two abducted children could get out of his grasp. It somewhat reassured him, that not everything was bleak, that maybe his own children would make it. Fawn and Cheyne had said that his kids were nice, that meant they were fine. He didn't care if they knew Beast Boy or not, he just knew they were one step closer to finding his children. Nightwing seemed to pick up on this, and though he looked sceptical he stated they would talk about it later.

Beast Boy looked to the side in aggravation; he couldn't believe how trustworthy two of his friends had become. Raven seemed to be on the green-bean's side for once. She took his wrist in her hand, and gave it a gentle squeeze, as if to let him know that she was with him, "I'm not too sure I can trust you two yet..." She told Fawn and Cheyne, who looked dull, "Azarath, Metrion, Zinthos." The two girls instantly fell to the floor.

Beast Boy shook himself out of Raven's grasp, taken aback. Cyborg opened his mouth, stunned. Nightwing looked at the twins, "Raven's right- if we looked her over, we have to prove these two are who we think they are.

The man watching muted the words coming from within the room he was watching and gritted his teeth in anger, "Extra precautions, extra measures- who knew this would take so much paperwork?" He looked at the time, calling Corrinna into the room. She was trembling. The man smiled, "I watched Mas today- he's quite upset you're missing...but he won't be for long." Corrinna looked confused, but for a fraction of a second, she had lit up, as if hope had flooded her. "I'll send him your body within the hour." He stated, not looking at Corrinna, who looked dazed. Tears brimmed her eyes. The man clicked his fingers, and Corrinna lit up, she suddenly became aware of her surroundings and rubbed her head, "Where am-"

The man raised a gun from under his desk, still signing papers as he did, "Thanks for the good week, Corrinna." He pulled the trigger, Corrinna, shocked, didn't have time to move. She fell to the floor, eye's wide in terror. The shadow man crept from his desk, and looked at the frightened women, "Wow, two in a day...I'm on fire." He cackled, and bent over Corrinna's body, biting her neck.

The sight brought bile up to Argent's mouth- she had just found herself in a cold metal room, and watched as a man bit Mas' dead wife. She backed away into the door, unsure of how she had found herself in the room.

Starfire's eyes enlarged in fear, her friend Argent had just been consumed by shadows. She speed texted her husband;

'Dick. Troubel. Argent taken by shadow. What to do? Asap reply pleze.'

Maybe he knew something about it, maybe this was Raven's new way of transporting people. She grabbed her twins from their cots, and held them close to herself, impatiently waiting for Nightwing's text-back. She comforted herself with one thought; tomorrow, the Titans in Jump City would make a heartening speech, tomorrow, she knew, even she would feel better. She ran out of the room, she needed to tell everyone what had just happened. Her common sense told her, to turn all the lights on as she went.

That was quite long for me! Haha.

Hope you enjoyed. Review?
