Titans Tower, San Francisco, February 22, 2036, 8:10 PM
*Shadow, C01* The computer sounded as Shadow walked into the air deck of the titans tower. It was were they kept a few weapons and spare supplies.
"Hey squirt!" Spoiler said to Kat as she checked the inventory.
"Hey Steph, what's up?" Kat asked sitting on a car.
"Nothing, wait, Tim's calling." Steph said.
"What's up Red?" Steph asked Tim on the other line.
"What do you mean Ace is breaking in?" Steph asked.
"Yeah, they are in the living room, Tim chill we are secure I locked the doors myself." Steph said, then an explosion happened upstairs, Steph and Kat jumped.
"What was that?" Kat asked. Then they saw Hawkgirl fall down the stairs into the room.
"THey are taking Cyborg." Savannah said scrambling to her feet.
"Who?" Steph said putting on her hood.
"Ace and his team." Hawkgirl said.
"Hawkgirl on me, Kat stay here, or suit up." Spoiler said. The two then ran out of the room.
"Rush to Red Robin! We got here, Velocity's here too." Brendon said at the door.
"I just swept the building, no way inside." Dylan said stopping to halt in front Rui and Brendon.
"Can you vibrate through?" Rui asked.
"No, after Hunter Zoloman attacked years ago they outfitted it with a materiel that would tear apart anyone who would phase through the windows or doors." Brendon said, recounting an attack that happened six years ago.
"Red Robin, we can't get inside." Brendon said into his com.
"How about this." Rui asked, aiming her sonic cannon at the doors, she fired at it.
*Plasma would be more effective Rui Lang* The scarab told her. She morphed her hand into the plasma cannon and blasted. Barley shattering the window.
"We are going to be here a while." Dylan remarked.
Ace ran at Black Arrow who tried to shoot him in the leg but to no avail. Ace then slammed the tip of his staff into her side and kicked her in the face.
"I'll ask one more time," Ace said, pinning Hanna to the floor, "Where is Cyborg?"
Hanna then wrapped her legs around his neck and slammed him to the floor and shot up.
"I'm no snitch." Hanna said, crossing her arms cockily. Then Poison jumped in her back and pulled on Hanna's hair.
"Then we will have to get mean." Poison said, Hanna slapped her and used her bow as a battering ram slamming Poison into the wall.
Then her legs were shot out by ice.
"Tell us Arrow, or you'll get hypothermia in the worst case scenario." Snowstorm said, her hand glowing white. Hanna fell to the floor and dropped her bow when Pounce kicked her down.
"Why, who wants to know?" Hanna snarled.
"You're funeral." Poison said, as Snowstorm readied herself to completely encase Hanna in ice, then Hawkgirl hit her in the face with her mace.
"Hey, how about round two!?" Savannah said. She spun her mace around her hands.
"Why not, I need the exercise." Poison said.
"Where the hell is that damned robot?" Pyro asked himself as he ran down the halls of the tower. He then ran right into Spoiler.
"Well, tonight isn't that much of a loss." He said firing on Steph.
"Is that all you got?" Spoiler said, jumping out of the way.
"No!" Pyro grinned, he then threw flames at Spoiler, who ran down the hallway, she threw a batarang at him; stabbing him in the shoulder.
"Dammit, Kat, yeah, leave your suit at home, while the fucking tower is under attack!" Kat said looking through the spare suits and costumes.
"Isn't there anything in here I can use?" She screamed, then she saw it. She stared at the suit for a solid minute. Contemplating if she should do it.
"I can't, I can't replace you." She said, starting to cry. "But I can make sure you live on." She said grabbing it out of the locker. She held it in her hands, the black and red stripe.
"I wont let you down."
"Okay on three." Dylan said to Rui.
"One"
Rui breathed in heavily.
"Two."
She aimed her cannon at the almost broken window.
"Three."
She fired at it, shattering the glass and metal behind it.
"We're in." Rui said running in, Dylan and Brendon following behind.
Once inside they saw Hawkgirl, Spoiler, and Black Arrow trying to hold their own against Ace's team.
"Hey, Ace!" Rui said firing on him, he turned around. Ace glared at Rui who only smirked at him.
"Pay attention we are in the house." She said, drawing her blade.
"Pounce, take beetle, Zoom finish your counter parts." Ace said, Zoom and Pounce then pounced at the trio. Brendon put on his googles and smiled.
"Hey Zoom, long time no see." Rush said blocking a punch form the speedster.
"And I'd like to keep it that way." Zoom snarled in Brendon's face.
"So would I!" Dylan said, coming down, kicking Zoom in the face.
"I will squash you bug!" Pounce said slashing at Rui.
"Fat chance!" Rui said, blocking each attack. She locked Pounce in an arm bar and pushed her down, she clamped her to the floor.
After several minutes of fighting, neither team having the upper hand Ace and his looked to be victorious as Zoom ran in with a damaged Cyborg.
"Don't let them leave." Spoiler said, clutching Ace's leg. He grinned down at her. Pulling out a hand gun and aiming it at her head.
"Such heroic nonsense" Ace said. The nearly defeated team's hearts sank.
BANG!
"Kill them all." Ace said kicking her body aside, dragging out Cyborg's nearly scrapped body. Then a batarang flew at him. Ace then looked into the direction it came.
"Who the hell?" Zoom asked.
Then a girl in a suit, reminiscent to Nightwing jumped down and landed perfectly on her feet.
"Nightshade" Ace laughed, "Aren't you supposed to be dead?"
Then Nightshade looked up at him, her blue eyes sparkled in the moonlit room. Her long black hair draped over her shoulders, blending into the color of the suit, aside from a red clip on extension.
"Yeah I am supposed to be dead." She said, she waltzed over to the team and reached a hand down to Brendon.
"Kat?" He whispered. She nodded.
"Rush get Velocity and Arrow out of here, they are way too hurt." Kat said, "Hawkgirl, Beetle, cover me."
They all did as told, Rush zoomed the injured out of the room. And Rui shot at Zoom, clamping him to a wall and knocking him out before he could peruse. Ace then tried to run for Brendon who was trying to get Cyborg out of there.
"Ace, you're mine!" Kat yelled, slamming her bow staff down on his shoulder. He tried to wrestle it out of her hands. She punched him in the gut but her then kicked her in the knee, and head butted her in the face. She fell to the floor and he used her staff to pin her by the neck to the floor. He grnned at her.
"Shadow, first wannabe now poser." He said, then Kat growled at him.
"Yeah, I'm such a poser discount Deathstroke!" She snarled. She grabbed the staff and pushed up wards, disarming him. She then lured him to the window and kicked him out of the window into the pier below.
Three hours later.
"They will all be properly transported to belle reve." Amanda Waller told the team and Red Robin and Blurr after they got there.
*Batman, B01* Dick ran in.
"Thanks Waller." Tim said, he closed the communications line and waited for Dick to issue an order.
"What happened here?" Dick asked, he then saw Kat in the Nightshade suit and walked over.
"Kat?" Dick asked.
"Yeah, hi Dick." She said, peeling off the mask.
"What happened here?" He asked, shaking himself out of a trans.
"Nothig we couldn't handle." Kat said. Dick smiled and put a hand on her shoulder.
"Oh, and I forgot my suit, had to wear this." Kat said, Nate walked over.
"Looks good on you kid." Blurr said to her.
"You think?" She asked.
"Yeah, Kylee would be proud." Dick said to her, she flushed and smiled.
Two Days later
Kat sat in the grotto of the watchtower. she held her new suit in her hands.
"Hey, Kylee, so we lost Steph, bet you guys are having a ball in heaven tonight." Kat said, tearing up a bit. "We couldn't find Ace, his body or any trace of him, we searched the whole island." Kat continued.
"We will find him." Kat said, "Because he got the mother box out of Vic, and we are going to get it back."

Ace emerged on the shore, coughing up water and bleeding form glass wounds.
"Grid, I need a boom tube, and tell Lex, phase two is ago."
