I don't own TT, or HOTD in any way shape or form.
This is a crossover fic with TT and House of the Dead.(Not the crappy movie, the kick ass video game) if you have not played the game then some of this might not make sense. Since there aren't enough characters for all the titans I will have to make up some for this fic.

The House of the Dead
Prologue- November 4, 1998 Curien Mansion
The Curien mansion was silent tonight. You would never have though that it was bursting with celebration hours ago. The Curien mansion was a huge estate consisting of the main house itself, featuring a laboratory underneath it, dorms for the scientists, and of course a garden supporting the middle. Research there had been mostly on the Genome theory. A theory that states that a man can live forever between life and death. The entire estate was run by Dr. Curien. A man in his mid forties who was astounded by this theory. He was determined to prove that this theory existed, and that a person can live forever. Tonight they had made a breakthrough. Making a dead heart start beating normally within a controlled environment.
Beast Boy stared at the ceiling in his dorm. He couldn't believe what they had done. They had created life. They had eliminated death. Who knows what advances they could do within the next week? Beast Boy worked in the central laboratory with many other scientists. He wanted to impress Dr. Curien so he could at least get that bonus he deserved. However Dr. Curien already had a 'favorite'. A young scientist named Starfire who always worked closely with him. She was one of the head scientists at the facility, and helped Dr. Curien with his research. There was no way that he could fill her shoes. Beast Boy sighed and rolled over in his bed and fell asleep.
November 16. 1998 8:30AM AMS Headquarters
Robin looked over the files his partner had given him. There was no doubt about it. This research facility was creating life. Within the past week or so they had been able to bring back many body parts from the dead. A heart, a liver, and even a brain. With such technology they could basically create living breathing human beings. "You think we should check it out?" Cyborg asked. Robin thought for a moment. Should we really interfere with their research like this? It may put them behind schedule. "I'm not sure we should." He said finally. "Look the boss is probably gonna make us check this place out anyway. We might as well." Robin gave in and said yes. He grabbed his coat and walked out of his office. "Robin where you going?" asked James one of his co-workers. "I need to go examine this research facility upstate. I'll be back in a few days." He said. The duo hoped in the car and started the drive.
November 16, 1998 10:00AM Curien Mansion
Beast Boy walked up to his partner put his hands over her eyes. "Guess who?" he asked her. "Take it off or I'll brake it off." Raven said. Beast Boy took his hands off her eyes and went to his station. "So anything interesting happen since last night?" he asked. "No this specimen is still the same. Dead." She said. "I don't know why Doc is making us examine this its not coming to life any time soon." Beast Boy said. "Lets just trash to damn thing and say the data was inconclusive." "This is why your not the head scientist around here." She said. Beast Boy turned and walked out the door bumping into another woman. "So how is the specimen doing?" she asked. "Uh...." He turned to Raven who started shaking her head. "The specimen is still......not living." He stuttered out. "But it doesn't look like it will be living any time soon. So, do you think we can just.....trash it?" The woman shot a bad look at the two of them. "You get paid to experiment, not to trash or destroy something just because its taking longer than expected to do what you want it to do. Now I suggest you get back to work before I have your jobs." Starfire turned and walked out the door. "Way to go." Raven said. Beast Boy glared at her.
Starfire continued walking down the hall until she got to the center room. The automatic doors swung open and she walked inside. Dr. Curien was sitting at his desk jotting down something. He was a middle aged man with black hair with hints of gray on the sides that stuck straight up. He had a fake leg so he needed a cane to get around. "Ah, there's my head scientist. I have just finished designs for some specimens we can create once we can get the lungs operational. Have a look." He pushed the yellow pad towards her. A tall figure with long legs, arms, and fingers was sketched on it. Its head was sort of like a spade, and it had multiple hearts. Above it in writing it said: Magician Type: 0 "Its........lovely." She said kind of disturbed of it. "Yes that will be my masterpiece my dear. Once that is created our world will be changed forever!" he said excited. "Listen Dr. some of the scientists aren't motivated enough to continue this project. More of them have left us. What should we do?" "My dear, if they aren't motivated by creating life, and changing the world as we know then they can go as they please."
The front gate buzzer rang. Dr. Curien looked at the security screens. "Hmm looks like we have visitors from the government." He said examining the car. "Let them in, so at least we can get the government on our side." The gate opened and the car drove inside the grounds. "Starfire go meet them. Give them a tour, and send them on their way. I don't want them snooping around too much."
Robin got out of his car and examined the place. "This is a research facility?" asked Cyborg. "Guess so." Said Robin. He saw a woman coming out of the mansion walking towards them. "Hello and welcome to the Curien Mansion research facility." She said. "My name is Starfire, and I will be your tour guide throughout the day." Robin and Cyborg shook her hand. "My name is Robin, and he is Cyborg." "Pleased to meet you little lady." He said. The three went inside. "This is the surface floor. It is mainly where the Doctor lives, and where most of the supplies are." Robin wasn't really paying attention. He was lost in her eyes. She was beautiful. He had never seen a woman like this in his life. If only she wasn't the working type. "If you follow me there is an elevator that leads towards the research area of this complex. This isn't the only elevator because there are over twenty five researchers within this place that have their own dorm within the compound." The elevator stopped on the bottom floor and the three got out. They followed her down the hall as she talked about the facility's history. But Robin wasn't too keen on listening. He just stared at her most of the time. I wish I had the nerve to ask her out to dinner.. "Robin...Robin are you listening." She said. Robin awoke from his trance startled. "I'm sorry." He said.
"God this is the most boring thing in the world!" said Beast Boy. "This stupid assed eye ball hasn't done anything! We hooked it to the piece of shit brain over there! Why the hell won't it start moving!" Beast Boy kicked the table hurting his foot. "Beast Boy just chill. I think I hear somebody coming." Raven said. Cyborg, Robin and Starfire walked into the room. "This is one of our many laboratories. These two scientists work on creating the organs fluid chambers." "I'm Beast Boy, and this is Raven." He said Cyborg and Robin shook their hands. "Shall we continue our tour?" Starfire asked. Starfire led them to Curien's office. "This is our head scientist Dr. Curien." She said. The two shook his hand and sat down in the two chairs in front of his desk. "So what are you two here for? Is the government checking up on my research?" Curien asked. "Yes a lot of people at the AMS are quite curious about your research." Said Robin. "I have a question as well. What motivated you to do this?" Curien went silent for a moment as he remembered something.
April 23, 1994 Liberty Memorial hospital
Dr. Curien sat in the hospital waiting room. He didn't know if he was going to be ok. "Lord I beg of you. Let his life be spared and I shall sin no more!" he said. A doctor came up to him. "Mr. Curien." He said. "How is he?" asked Curien. "Is he going to be alright?" "We're not sure. We haven't seen a disease multiply this quickly before. It is spreading throughout his nervous system. For all we know he might lose all feeling whatsoever, and after that...." The doctor trailed off a little. "It might infect his brain." Curien almost died standing there. He couldn't picture life without his beloved son Daniel. Daniel was his whole life. Without him he would have no care to live anymore. "May I see him?" he asked the doctor. "Sure. But be quick. He is pretty weak." Curien walked into the patient room and sat in the chair next to Daniel's bed. Daniel was barely awake with a respirator hooked onto his mouth. "My dear Daniel." He said. "I'll never give up no matter what the doctors say. I will gladly step into forbidden territory, if it will save your life."
"Doctor?" said a voice. "Doctor." Curien snapped back to reality. "You didn't answer my question." "I am motivated...by every living thing. By every living organism in this world. I have hired top researchers to ensure that nothing will go wrong, and that we can create life right at our fingertips." "But doctor are you sure that this is a good idea?" asked Cyborg. "It is basically playing god!" Curien was angered by this remark. The nerve of this government pawn! He thought. How dare he question my theories! "Now see here!" yelled Dr. Curien. "This is not a matter of playing god! It is a matter of saving lives! Creating living bodies for research is safer than experimenting on real living organisms! My research can save lives for god sakes!" Cyborg slumped in his chair a little. "Now the both of you get out right now!"
Starfire led the two out the office door and into the hallway. "I am sorry about the Doctor. He gets very agitated when people question his theories." She said. "That's fine." Said Robin. "I already know enough to bring back a decent report to the officials down at the office." The three walked out front towards the car. "Listen Starfire, if you need any government support or anything. Here's the number for my office." He handed her a card. "Thank you. I'll be sure to do that." Robin and Cyborg got back into the car. Cyborg laughed silently. "What?" asked Robin. "Government support?" he asked. "You just gave her your number Casanova." "Shut up Cyborg." Said Robin. Cyborg kept laughing.
November 18, 1998 Curien Mansion
It was another silent night at the Curien mansion. However just like before it had been loud with excitement just a few hours ago. The science team had successfully created a living functioning brain. Within weeks they would be able to create living working bodies.
December 18, 1998 8:30 pm
Robin sat at his desk analyzing papers of previous reports. He was at the office late tonight. "Hey Robin." Said a voice. Robin turned to look at Cyborg. "You leaving yet?" "I don't see you leaving." Robin said back. "I did leave. I just came back to see if you were still here working. What are you doing anyway?" "Well I-"Robin was interrupted by the phone. "Jeez who would call this late?" said Cyborg. Robin picked up the phone. "Hello?" he said. "Robin! Thank god you picked up!" said a female voice. "Starfire?" he asked. "Whats going on?" "I didn't know who else to call. There's no police station out here, and the only person I knew who could help was you!" she said. She sounded frightened. "Star, whats going on?" he asked. "Curien's gone mad! He-ahhhH!" Starfire was cut off, and all Robin could hear was a distorted sound that sounded like a scream.
