Chapter 5: The Bomb

Beat Boy gasped, "Peregrine?"

The girl turned her head sharply, fixing Beast Boy with her fierce, green-eyed glare, "You."

Beast Boy took a step back, as if hit by the girls anger, "Peregrine you're alive? I can't believe it. You've been gone for so long."

"Yes, I'm alive," said Peregrine coldly, "But with no thanks to you. If it was up to you, I'd be dead.

"What? Peregrine I neve-!"

Whoosh! Clang! A steel feather quivered in the ground a Beast Boy's feet.

"Don't lie to me!" Peregrine shouted, "I know what you tried to do!"

"Beast Boy would never want one of his friends dead!" Robin shouted back.

Peregrine now glared at him, "Just wait and see, Robin." She then pushed off of the ground and flew up into the air. The Titans got ready for battle, but Peregrine crashed through the ceiling and flew up into the dark sky. As the Titans began to look away, a feather floated down. It had a note attached to it.

*Titans, leave now. There's a bomb in the building. Slade put it there. *

As soon as Robin read the note, he began to devise a plan.

"Starfire, Beast Boy, go down to the street and start to clean people and cars off the streets around the building. Raven, Cyborg, and I will go find and dismantle the bomb."

"But Robin," objected Starfire, "What will happen if you do not find the bomb in time?"

No one answer her question.

"Come on, Star," said Beast Boy and turned to go the street. Starfire cast a sad look to her other three friends and then followed him.

Raven, Robin, and Cyborg spread out and began to search the building. Raven scanned it telepathically, looking through the steel support beams and concrete flooring and walls. Cyborg and Robin picked up and moved things around.

"Robin!" Raven yelled after about three minutes of searching, "Over here. I found it!"

She was crouched down in a far corner on the second highest level far from where the boys were. They ran over to where she was.

"Its behind this metal sheet carefully disguised by dust.

Robin and Cyborg each slid their fingers into the narrow crack between the metal and the cement and attempt to pull it out. When they failed to do that, Raven tried.

"Azarath Metrion Zinthos!" she said. The metal plate glowed black and rose into the air, revealing a long cylinder with a clock on it that read 1:30 and then 1:29.

Robin carefully opened the bomb. Its inside was full of different colored wires.

"Cyborg, I'm gonna need your help with this," he said, pulling out a pair of wire cutters.

Cyborg leaned over Robin's shoulder, "Cut the black wire first, then blue, yellow, green, and striped.

"What about the red on?" Robin asked.

"Don't cut that one. If you do, the bomb will self destruct."

Robin cut all the wires quickly in the right order. The bomb stopped ticking with twenty seconds to spare.
