Now outside the warehouse, the Titans had to figure out a way to track the detonator.
"Okay. So we know the chronoton detonator was here, now we just have to figure out where it went." Cyborg said, looking at his wrist computer.
"No problem! We should split up and-"Beast Boy started, only to be cut off by a peeved Raven.
"-waste an hour searching only to come up empty handed?"she said. BB scratched the back of his head.
"Well, when you say it like that..." he said, leveling a glare at Raven. Just then Starfire walked up.
"Raven is right. We must find some way to track the device." she said, not noticing Robin walk in front of her. Robin cocked his head to the side slightly, hearing something. Footsteps. He turned toward the source of the noise, a man who by the look of his uniform worked for the docks. He looked innocent enough. Wait, Robin thought, He might know something about our missing chronoton detonator.
"Freeze!" he yelled, the Titans turned towards him. He ran after the man, who when he saw him turned and ran. Robin ran after him, throwing one of his bird-a-rangs in the floor in front of the man. The man froze, giving Robin a chance to pin him to the wall. He held him by the front of his shirt with his right hand and with his left held up a Slade insignia.
"Tell me everything you know about this!" he yelled, hoping to intimidate the man into cooperating with their search. The man just stuttered, infuriating Robin more.
"Answer me!" he yelled. "Now!" he pulled the man from the wall and pushed him back against it.
"I-I've never seen it before! I don't know anything! Honest!" The man yelled as he watched Raven's black magic encase Robin's body, starting from his chest. Robin was pulled back and smashed into the wall across from the man. Raven walked in front of him, her hand also encased in her magic.
"You said you could handle it." she said accusingly, while releasing him of her hold. He fell to the floor in a crouch.
"You promised." Starfire said, feeling betrayed.
Robin stood up. "We're wasting time." he said, the dark edge to his voice still there. Beast Boy walked up beside Raven.
"You know, just 'cause we're trying to catch Slade doesn't mean you have to act like him!" he yelled after Robin. Robin froze in his tracks, his body stiff as a board. How dare he? he thought. Slade's the one with his finger on the trigger to blow up the city! Robin turned around, giving Beast Boy a glare like no other.
"Don't you ever compare me to him." he said as he walked up to Beast Boy, getting in his face. "He's trying to destroy the city! I'm trying to save it!" He sliced his hand through the air as he spoke, trying to emphasize his point. The Titans all looked at him quizzically. His voice had that dark edge again, making him sound more like Slade with every word. Their conversation was interrupted, however, when Starfire seemed to have something in her nose.
"Ah-CHOO!" A flurry of green energy encased the Titans, leaving them slightly charred.
"Gesundheit." Raven deadpanned. All that was heard was the sizzling of the Titans costumes.
Starfire sniffled. "Forgive me. I am allergic to metallic chromium. There must be a source near-" Starfire gasped. "Ah-choo!" The rest of the Titans fled in just the nick of time. From a distance, you could see a green mushroom cloud as the ground shook. Starfire sniffled, rubbing her nose with a finger.
"Ugh, sorry." she said. Beast Boy came out from behind the trash can. Robin lowered his grappling hook to the ground. Raven flew in through a portal. Cyborg walked up to Starfire, looking at his wrist computer.
"Interesting."he said.
"Ugh, not really. On my world chromium allergies are quite common." Starfire said. Cyborg was looking at his wrist computer with surprise.
"No. The key component to a chronoton detonator is a metallic chromium core, which means-" Cyborg started.
"-Starfire can track it." Beast Boy finished with a grin. All of the Titans looked to Starfire, who didn't look to impressed with the current plan.
