The Captain: I want my Teen Titans Go #4 to come out! It's not out yet! Well, in any case, maybe I can use this excessive anger to write this story faster or something. Yeah...something like that. Well, I've decided to do a couple of drastic things. Since I couldn't figure out how else I'd do it, I thought I'd just drop her right in here. Read on to find out who. You should probably figure it out quickly. So how was that last episode of Teen titans anyways? It was pretty good. Real cutesy really, with the narrator and all. Well, now I guess I can let her shoot beams from her eyes and all that. Cool cool. Yeah...

Oh, and just for the record, the names I use in this are terrible, but they are supposed to be that way!

Legal Tander: I don't own the Teen Titans or anything in or pertaining to the show. I do however own the fic, kinda. I also hold rights to the characters in which I create which I would really appreciate not being taken and used. Blah.

Shadow Requiem: Football Friday Fight, Part 1

All the titans had gathered in their living room to talk about what had happened to Starfire and Raven last night. They sat all across from each other in a small circle, each with a note pad and pen. They had all just finished breakfast, and were all ready for discussion.

Robin: " Alright...so let's start a little think tank here. We've got some menace to society running around in Slade's service, and he recently attacked Starfire and Raven at the mall...so let's come up with some ideas on how to stop him, and find out what he's planning."

Raven: " Robin...he didn't attack us. He fled from us, and that was all. Infact, it was we who attacked him really."

Robin: " Well yes...but he did attack us initially. But whatever the case, we do need to think up ways to find out who he is and how to combat him."

Beastboy: " I don't have any ideas guys. I never even saw him. All I remember was getting grabbed from somewhere, then drug away. I turned into a gorilla to fight off whatever it was, but I couldn't really see it. I just took some swings in the dark and then I fell down the stairs. So, whatever he is, he's really hard to see in the dark."

Cyborg: " Worse yet, he can move around as a shadow. Me and Raven were downstairs, and I knew he was there because I could detect the motion from his shadow on the wall. Next thing to know, Raven's yelling at me, telling me he's the shadow. So I shot it, blew a hole in the wall over there and next thing to know, he popped right out."

Robin: " Good. There's a start. Your sonic cannon will blow him out of walls and such, force him out in the open."

Raven: " Yes...but I think that's all it can do. My powers didn't have much effect on him. I tried to read his mind, and I was starting to get somewhere when I was kicked out. His shadow seems to be where his powers center from."

Cyborg: " I'd say I agree with you...but that's not all he can do. He knocked me off my feet with a shoulder charge, and that shouldn't have happened. He's only human, atleast that's what my scanners told me. So, he's got some other powers I think we haven't really seen."

Robin: " So we should expect him to be strong."

Cyborg: " No...it wasn't his strength. It was something else. I'm sure he's still pretty strong...but it was like something exploded between us and knocked me down. After that, I just remember getting grabbed by that shadow thing of his and being thrown from the tower."

Robin: " I know. When I was checking around for him, I couldn't pin point him because I was getting attacked on all sides. When I thought I found him, something pulled me to the ground by my cape. When I thought he was behind me, something grabbed my head as I was turning around and tossed me into the wall. Then I saw his foot come out and stomp on me. After that, it was just a quick hit to the neck. So he does know how to fight. Starfire, you've been really quiet about all this. You've seemed to have the most experience against him. You're the only one that didn't really lose to him after all."

Starfire: " Well...no, I guess not. He was not mean to me at all. He asked me to give my communicator to him."

Robin: " He asked you?"

Starfire: " Indeed. He said he didn't want to hurt me. But then, when I told him no, he grabbed it and ran off. So, I cornered him in the training room."

Robin: " I see. So what happened after that?"

Starfire: " He did the shadow thing that Cyborg mentioned, and he started to get away. But then, I threw starbolt at the wall to stop him. I hit him, and it too knocked him from the wall and put a hole in it."

Robin: " So perhaps explosive weaponry and sonic waves knock him out of his shadow form. Ok, well there's a plus."

Starfire: " Well...when I hit him with my starbolts...he seemed to be really hurt by them. His...clothing was melting off at one point."

Robin: " What? That doesn't make a lot of sense..."

Starfire: " I am not too sure what it means. That is only what I could see. I hit him with it, and his costume began to melt off."

Robin: " Perhaps it has something to do with his shadow then? Raven, you should know more than the rest of us. Maybe you have some ideas?"

Raven: " All I know is that he may be a shadow mage. That's all. I don't know what there powers are or consist of. Though, I get the feeling that isn't just a shadow of his."

Beastboy: " What does that mean?"

Raven: " When we chased him in the parking lot, he threw his keys out and his shadow caught them. It started up his motorcycle and was able to help him elude us. Thus, I do not think it is just a shadow."

Robin: " Now...that's a bit farfetched, don't you think?"

Raven: " Well, I don't have proof...and perhaps that just might have been him using his powers further...but with how it started his motorcycle, and when I was kicked out of his head it came up in his defense, it makes me believe it's much more than just a simple shadow or some power."

Cyborg: " Well, whatever the case, it seems like we have the one thing that can stop it. Seems Star's powers have serious effect on him. If that's the case, we need to get a plan together where we can trap him. If he causes problems, she can just give him a couple of zaps and that'll be the end of that."

Robin: " Good idea. So now all we have to do is find him. Now Raven, you and Starfire have both seen his face, right?"

Raven: " Correct. He's of above average height...so maybe a few inches taller than Starfire. He has shoulder length black hair and blue eyes. Probably weight around 190 pounds or so. He's quite lean actually, and in good shape. When we saw him, he was wearing a Metallica shirt and blue jeans."

Robin: " So, he's an average guy then?"

Raven: " It would seem. He likes those goggles though. He wore them when he attacked us, and he wore them outside in the public. Look for those and you'll probably find him."

Just then, the doorbell was heard. It's loud ring echoed through the entire tower. Beastboy jumped up and ran for the door. He looked at the video moniter and saw a letter sitting there on the step. He opened the door and picked it up, then brought it back with the others. It had all the Titans names written on it. He tossed it to Robin.

Beastboy: " Here's some mail."

He looked over it and narrowed his eyes, scowling darkly.

Cyborg: " Hey man, who's it from?"

Robin: " Slade..."

Raven: " Well, open it."

Robin: " Cyborg, scan this thing first. Make sure it's safe."

He handed the letter to Cyborg and he robotic eye glew brightly, scanning it in all sorts of ways, he handed it back to Robin shrugging.

Cyborg: " It's clean."

Robin: " Fine. Let's see what this is all about."

Robin tore the envelope open and took out it's contents. There were 5 front row tickets at the 50 yard line for the Jump City Jacks Football game that evening. Then, there was also a letter. Robin read through it aloud for everyone to hear.

Robin: " Titans...you've been doing very well the last few weeks. My congradulations on all your plot foiling and city saving. In respects for you keeping the city safe from those whom would take it over, aside from my self, I'd like to extend my gratitude to you. These tickets are in appreciation for your hard work. They were very hard to get a hold of, and were very expensive. So please be there. You won't be disappointed. Sincerely yours, Slade."

The 5 teenagers thought long and hard for a few moments. Finally, Beastboy broke the silence.

Beastboy: " Well, I say we go."

Raven: " I'm agree. He can't be up to any good."

Robin: " But what if it's a trap? Or a diversion?"

Cyborg: " Yeah...I know. I'm with Robin on this. I think we should just stay out and patrol the city."

Starfire: " Then perhaps we should split up into groups?"

Robin: " Well...that's not a bad idea. So...how will we do this?"

Cyborg: " Look, me and Robin will patrol the city. That shouldn't be too hard. He's got his cycle and I got my car. You 3 can go to the football game. Make sure nothing goes too wrong over there, and when it's over, we should meet back here."

Robin: " Alright. That's what we'll do. What time is the football game slated for?"

Beastboy: " The ticket says it's tonight at 7pm."

Robin: " Then we should probably get to the training room. Come on, let's do some light drills to get ready for everything."

Out of nowhere, another ring came at the door. Beastboy turned around and headed for it. Opening the door, he saw nobody. Afterwards, he shook his head and closed it. Not a couple of seconds later, that ring came again. He poked his head of the door way and still saw nobody. So, he closed the door and just a moment after he closed it, he opened it again, catching the young blond in the middle of her prank ringing.

Beastboy: " Terra?"

Terra: " Beastboy!"

Terra hugged the green titan and he about melted in her arms. She let him go and he pulled her in.

Beastboy: " Hey everybody! It's Terra!"

Starfire: " Wonderful! You are back!"

Terra: " Hi guys! How have you been?"

Cyborg: " Not too bad really."

Robin: " What brings you back?"

Terra: " Well...I wanted to come back to say I was sorry. For a lot of things. Particularly to you Beastboy."

Beastboy: " Oh...it's alright. I'm just glad to see you're doing well."

Terra: " Thanks. I wanted to see if you still needed a new Titan! Because I'm ready to give it a shot. I know I still need some work on my powers...but still, I'd like to be of some help."

Raven: " ..."

Terra gave a strange look Raven's way. Raven pulled her cloak over and got up.

Raven: " I need to do some meditating."

Robin: " That's pretty sudden. Are you alright Raven?"

Raven: " I'm fine."

Raven got up and walked off towards her room. Everyone just looked at each other, then rewelcomed Terra in and filled her in on the plans. In the mean time, everyone went to the training room where they participated in a lot of team exercises, excluding Raven of course. They also worked with Terra on her powers, which since the last time they had seen her, had improved greatly. They maintained this schedule through lunch, which they got together and had a big pizza. Raven joined them this time around for the food and to finish practice for the evening.

Finally, 6pm rolled around and the 6 Titans got together in the living room. Of course, Beastboy was almost hanging onto Terra, as he had been since she got there. Robin handed out 4 of the 5 tickets, one to Starfire, Raven, Terra, and Beastboy. Afterwards, he gave them their final instructions.

Robin: " Alright. Just act normal when you're in the seats. Slade may or may not be at the game. That other guy may or may not be there as well. Whatever the case, that's going to be the biggest attration of people, so that's why most of you will be there. Cyborg and I will handle whatever happens around the city. If anything happens, let us know. Let us know also if Slade shows up. He's the most important target. Everyone got it?"

Beastboy: " Yeah yeah. Let's get going. Worse comes to worse, I get to see a ball game."

Starfire: " Yes, I too would like to learn more about the football."

So, Beastboy, Terra, Raven, and Starfire all left for the stadium. Cyborg let them pile into his car and was about to take them, but Beastboy jumped out quickly.

Beastboy: " Hang on, I need to go get my hat."

Cyborg: " Hat? Which hat?"

Beastboy: " My going out with the girls hat."

Cyborg: " You mean that old thing? I'm not letting you in my car with that thing on!"

Beastboy: " Oh come on! It'll look great! Please, for me Cy?"

Cyborg: " Fine...fine...whatever. Just hurry up!"

Beastboy ran off and in just a few moments, came back wearing a white, wide brimmed hat with a red, yellow, and green feathers sticking out of it. He hopped back in the car with Cyborg and they drove off towards the stadium. Terra was snickering under her breath, trying hard not to laugh out loud. Raven simply rolled her eyes, and even followed it with a sigh AND a shake of the head. Starfire, of course, didn't quite get the whole joke, but admired the hat.

Starfire: " Such a pretty hat Beastboy...why do you not wear it more often?"

Beastboy: " Oh, it's only for special occasions like this."

Starfire: " It is an occasion? Perhaps a holiday? Or is this some kind of earth custom that I am not aware of yet?"

Raven: " You really don't want to know the answer to this Starfire."

Starfire: " I do not? What harm would it be? Is Beastboy doing something naughty perhaps?"

Terra: " Kinda...but hey, I think it's pretty cute."

Beastboy: " You think so? I mean...uhh, yeah! I'm cute!"

Cyborg: " Man...whatever..."

He shook his head and drove the car faster. Beastboy's obscenely large hat was starting to crap his car as he seemed to show it off a bit more. Cyborg dropped them off in a matter of a few minutes. Of course, this may have been because he had the pedal to the floor the entire way. In any case, he kicked Beastboy out of the car, whom opened the door for the ladies to step out. Afterwards, Cyborg took off to patrol the city. Beastboy extended both his arms out a bit.

Beastboy: " Now then ladies, if you don't mind..."

Terra: " Sure, why not!"

Raven: " Absolutely not."

Starfire: " What would you like me to do with your arm? Perhaps you need some Tameranian Acupuncture?"

Terra: " Oh no Starfire. Just take it...like this!"

Terra took Beastboys arm in hers, and Starfire did the same. He walked with them, adding a little more flare to his step, and the 3 of them seemed to be having a good time. Raven instead walked a ways behind them with her cloak pulled up over her head. They continued into the stadium where they took their seats. They sat Starfire, Terra, Beastboy, and Raven all in a line. They were even recognized up on the large screen used to show camera pans and were broadcast for all to see. Beastboy waved to the camera and stuck some poses. Starfire watched herself and her reactions on the TV screen with glee. Raven gave the camera a brief glance, then went back to her viewing of the audience. Terra joined with Beastboy in show boating, and the crowd seemed to love it.

Finally though, the game started. It was the Jump City Jacks football team going against their rivals, the Spade City Aces. The Jacks kicked off to the Aces, and thus the first quarter began. Beastboy kept ordering popcorn and peanuts from the vendors walking by. Starfire sat very contently with her soda and candy, but kept asking questions about the game.

Starfire: " I have seen this before...but I'm not sure how it is played again. We tried in the park a long time ago, but that was when Cyborg ran out of power. Now, who is who here and what do they do?"

Terra: " Well, that guy there in the very center is called the Center. He gives the ball to the guy behind him called the Quarterback. The Quarterback makes all the plays for the team to follow. He hands the ball to the other members of the team. He can also pass the ball however he wants."

Starfire: " So...he is like the team leader?"

Terra: " Yeah, something like that."

The Quarterback threw the ball halfway down field, where one of his recievers caught it and took it a few yards before being tackled. Starfire got up, ready to threw a starbolt.

Starfire: " He has been assaulted! We must help him!"

Terra: " No Starfire...it's alright. You see, the defending team can do that. They want to make sure that nobody on the other team gets into the end zone with the ball."

Starfire: " I see. What a wonderous sport of atheletes it is. Perhaps we should try to play it again some time."

Raven: " Please...just keep your eyes open everyone."

Beastboy: " Killjoy..."

So, the 4 Titans kept their eyes out. Still, Starfire was a bit more interested in the mechanics of the football game, so she kept her attention well divided. The first quarter passed by and the second quarter started.

In the meantime, Robin and Cyborg were busy patrolling the streets. Since this was such a big and important game, the streets were almost empty, so getting around was very easy. Robin called into the team at the stadium. Raven picked up on her communicator and answered him.

Raven: " What is it Robin?"

Robin: " See anything yet?"

Raven: " See for yourself..."

She waved it by her 3 partners. One whom which was completely facinated with the game, one whom which wore a rediculously large feathery hat, and one whom which was cheering alongside the afformentioned green titan. Raven looked back into her communicator.

Raven: " Other than these people, I've seen nothing out of the ordinary."

Robin: " I see. I haven't seen anything either. Neither has Cyborg. Well, I'm just checking in. Let me know if ANYTHING happens."

Raven: " Right."

She put her communicator away, then kept looking around. The second quarter passed by eventually, and so, the halftime show began. A stage was quickly put up and a band brought their insturments out and began playing. Each of the Titans took some sort of intermission. Beastboy and Starfire headed for the bathrooms, Terra went to take a quick walk and stretch her legs, and Raven continued to snoop around. The show was going just fine, until the music stopped suddenly only after a few minutes.

This drew Raven's attention and she looked down at the stage. There, the other band members were laying on the stage, with a sole person just standing there in the center, holding a long black guitar. She narrowed her eyes and saw the lanky, black haired guy she'd met not too long ago. He looked up and picked her out of the crowd. He flashed her a smile and played some heavy guitar licks, allowing his music to echo throughout the stadium. He grabbed a mic and spoke out to the audience.

Clive: " Ladies and Gentlemen...glad you could all make it here. Especially the Titans out there in the audience. I see you Raven, anyone else out there with ya?"

Raven flew down to the stage. She landed not too far from Clive, and opened her communicator.

Raven: " Robin, that guy's here."

Robin: " No time! I'm tracking Slade!"

Raven: " Don't worry, we'll handle it."

Robin: " Just be careful."

Raven put her communicator away. Clive smiled at her, then played a little more on the guitar he carried. Terra came back around next, and made her way next up to Raven.

Terra: " So, who's this?"

Clive: " I believe that's my line. Well now, I must say, being a Titan is looking pretty tempting. If I didn't have this current job, I might apply."

Terra: " Sorry, but we don't hire losers! Ha ha!"

Clive: " Ouch blondie. That's a hit below the belt. Hmmm...now that I think about it...you're quite unfamiliar to me. Got a name?"

Terra: " Terra. You?"

Clive: " Charmed Terra. Myself? Hmmm...I guess you can call me the singer in black. Yeah, it's cliche'...but it'll do for the moment."

Beastboy and Starfire made their way over to the stage a few moments later. They all stood poised for combat, but no one was making the first move. Clive still held his guitar and talked on the mic.

Clive: " Well now...four on one....that sure isn't too fair."

Beastboy: " Give it up! You can't beat all of us like this!"

Clive looked at Beastboy's pimp hat. He grinned and had a snicker or two about it.

Clive: " Now that's style. 3 lovely ladies and a short green pimp. Sounds like something out of a cartoon or a fan fic."

Starfire: " What do you mean? And why do you refer to Beastboy as a 'pimp'?"

Clive: " Oh...I see. Well, I'll have to get back to you on that one. I guess it's time to put on my half time show."

Beastboy: " Your half time show?"

Clive: " Fight of the Century! The Teen Titans verses the mysterious Singer in Black. Well, that does sound corny...but it's just a temporary name. Something for the papers to use."

Terra: " Don't think you're gonna get away!"

Clive: " Well, it wouldn't be my first time. So, wanna do this one on one, or just free for all it?"

Raven: " Don't listen to him. He's trying to trick you. Let's just detain him. Remember the plan?"

Terra: " Yeah."

Beastboy: " Got it."

Starfire: " Yes I do."

Beastboy: " Teen Titans, go!"

And with that single phrase the Titans heard, the 4 of them sprang into action. Clive held steadily to his long black guitar as a Starbolt, a rock, a bull, and a speaker under the influence of Ravens powers, came flying at him. He hopped over the starbolt, dodged the speaker, spun around the charging Beastboy, and whacked the large rock that came flying at him with his Guitar. The rock shattered into a thousand pieces, and Clive stood there, now inbetween the 4 of them. They began to circle around him, trying to trap him between themselves. Terra caused more rocks to pull out of the ground and flung them at him. Clive spread his arms and his shadow spread along with them. Large black clawed arms sprout out of hit and circled him quickly, destroying each of the earthian project tiles before they could reach him. He then pulled them back and they all headed for Terra, grabing her by her arms and legs. Beastboy turned into a giant gorilla and grabbed Terra as well, making sure the shadows wouldn't take her. Raven then took more debris form the area and flung it at Clive, whom was busy trying to avoid starbolts by Starfire.

The debris caught Clive in the back of the head and sent him sprawling across the floor at Starfire's feet. The shadow's grip over Terra faded away, so Beastboy set her down and checked to make sure she was alright. Starfire and Raven looked over the young man whom was laying on the ground. Raven checked for his pulse, seeing it was normal.

Raven: " He's just unconscious."

Starfire: " So what do we do with him?"

Beastboy: " Well...I say we...hey!"

Beastboy pointed out to the body of Clive and saw it had disappeared. Raven looked around worriedly, taking flight.

Raven: " He should be least effective off the ground! Beastboy, get Terra off the ground!"

Beastboy: " Alright..."

He transformed himself into a Pterodactyl, then allowed Terra to climb on his back. He and Starfire both took flight, and they checked the grounds for him. Raven shook her head, not seeing him. Finally, after about 10 minutes, they allowed themselves to land.

Terra: " What was that all about?"

Raven: " He can travel as a shadow. Perhaps as a defense, when he goes unconscious like that, he would just turn into a shadow and escape."

Beastboy: " You're probably right."

Starfire: " Still...did that feel to easy?"

Raven: " Definitely."

Raven looked at the ground one last time, then her eyes widened at the sight. All the Titan's shadows were fine, except Terra's. It was bigger than she was, and it's hair was very long, flowing out of it's head in what looked like long pointy dreadlocks.

Raven: " Terra! You're shadow!"

Terra: " What? What are you talking about?"

Raven: " Starfire, shoot for her shadow! He's hiding in it!"

Starfire threw about a half dozen starbolts right there infront of Terra. When the smoke cleared, he wasn't there anymore. More precisely, he was behind Terra, holding her in a sort of detainment hold. His forearm was wrapped around her neck and her arms were bound behind her back. Clive kept her close.

Clive: " Whew. That was a close one. I almost got zapped to kingdom come there. Slade wouldn't have been happy about that."

Terra: " Hey! Let me go! Come on! Don't make me hurt you."

Clive: " Sorry blondie, but I've still got a use for you."

Raven: " Hiding behind a girl like that?"

Clive: " Well...not really."

Beastboy: " You coward! Using her to protect you."

Clive: " Well...there's a reason you see..."

He took a couple of steps back, pulling her along with him. The Titans gathered closer, following with him. He smiled, then shoved her forwards into Beastboy. He died it with enough force to knock Beastboy over into Raven. Had Starfire not been as strong as she was, she might have been knocked over the the whole team would have been bowled over. Still, it was a good enough ploy. Clive ran right after her and rammed Beastboy as he grabbed Terra. This knocked the pair over and since they were against Raven, it knocked them to the ground. Starfire still held her ground. Clive's facial expression changed to that of a surprise.

Clive: " Wow. I thought you'd end up falling over with the rest of them. What's your secret?"

Starfire: " I am much stronger than I look. I told you that before."

Clive: " True. How about we find out then!"

Clive rushed her and he grabbed her arms. She did the same and it looked much like a standard battle between 2 individuals, each one trying to contest the other's strength. Though Clive was a pretty strong guy for a human, he was only human, and Starfire's alien strength was swiftly pushing him backwards.

Clive: " Ok...this...wasn't expected. Guess I could use a bit of help on this one."

Clive's shadow reached up it's arms and supported Clive, intertwining it's fingers with his. Suddenly, Starfire's momentum stopped and they appeared even. Clive gave her a grin as they competed for the strongest.

Clive: " Wow...you weren't lying!"

Starfire: " Of course I was not! But...this is my natural strength...you use your powers..."

Clive: " My powers...is a strength...but if you insist..."

Clive used Starfire's strength against her by spinning and letting go of her. She fell forwards, but before she would hit the ground and land on her face, he caught her, setting her down softly. Afterwards, he jumped up into the air and landed in the seats of the stadium. Once he landed, Raven threw chairs and all sorts of things at him that she could get her powers a hold of. Clive reached into his shadow and pulled out that same black guitar he carried earlier, and knocked the chairs away from him. They fell all over the place, mangled and twisted beyond repair. Beastboy turned back into a Gorilla and began catching and throwing the broken chairs at Clive, who was now batting against both Raven and him. Finally, Terra joined by causing large stones to rip out of the ground and fly at him.

Now, Clive wasn't some kind of weakling. He was battle a thousand up till this point, however, the flurry of projectiles became to much. They started hitting him, so to protect himself, he summomed those shadowy arms again, and they rotated around him fast enough to just knock everything away. They worked very well, up till Starfire decided to join in by tossing starbolts. Once again, it was very clear that her powers were something he could exactly protected himself from. Half a dozen starbolts just shot and ripped right through the protective arms, almost as if there was nothing there. They each hit in succession. Clive however, remained resilient to this. He staggered, but didn't fall. The black arms withdrew themselves, but that left him open to Starfire. She flew down, grabbing him by the arm. She threw him back onto the stage, crashing him into a drum set.

The titans followed after him, then made a circle around him, making sure they would be in a position to not let him escape. He got up slowly and looked around to see them all ready. Finally he got on their feet, and they decided to strike before I got a chance to recover. Terra made the ground underneath them shake, knocking Clive off balance. Beastboy went for another charge as a bull, making contact with the black clad villain. As he went flying backwards, wires ripped out of the stage, catching and wrapping him up, holding him in place for a barrage of well placed Starbolts. Each hit with an amazing impact, knocking him around and destroying the wires. Each one tore his black suit and caused it to withdraw into the ground, until he was left standing there in just a simple pair of pants.

Clive sighed, realizing that he may not be able to do this. He sunk down and laid out on his back. The Titans kept a bit of a distance from him, not sure whether he was truely defeated, or whether he was playing possum. Finally, he held his hand up into the air.

Clive: " Alright...they got me a little by surprise on this one. Maybe it's to bright out here with all these stadium lights...heh heh. Tag old buddy...your in for round 2..."

Starfire: " What are you talking about?"

Beastboy: " I think he's lost it!"

Terra: " He's crazy..."

Raven: " No...wait...everyone! Get back!"

Everyone stepped away as Clive got up. However, what was happening was far more unbelieveable than him getting up after getting the crap kicked out of him. Clive's eye's had become black, and the shadow his body cast was reaching up, grabbing a hold of him, and pulling itself up out of the ground. It eventually covered his own body, and then hunched over to a kneeling position. From there, a long black tail sprout, and then his limbs and abdomen got larger. Much large. Infact, when he stood back up, he was almost 8 feet tall. Long black, pointed dreadlocks grew from the monsters head. His skin had become black, but most of all, his face disappeared, leaving only a masked look on the monster with 2 large pale blue glowing eyes. It stared down at the 4 Titans infront of it, not saying anything. The Titan's backed up and Raven grabbed her communicator. Cyborg was closest, so she called him up.

Cyborg: " What is it?"

Raven: " Are you close by?"

Cyborg: " I can be there in 10 minutes, is it important?"

She showed the beast to Cyborg, whom just finished with a single line before cutting communications.

Cyborg: " I'm on my way...just don't die on me!"

The monster gave out a loud roar, and it made it's advance.
