The fridge hummed along keeping the Titan's food cold. It was the only thing left in the main room of Titan's Tower to survive the recent attack... until it turned black and exploded.
"I'm getting tired of this." Raven droned as what was left of her hooded cloak fluttered in the morning breeze "I'm going to my room."
Cyborg got to his feet and entered the room through the hole in the wall. "Oh man, not again!" He groaned. His cybernetic left arm was lying on the table where it had been blasted off.
"What are you guys waiting for?" Beast Boy demanded "They're getting away! We have to stop them!" In an instant he transformed into a falcon and took off for the brutally opened window. Robin caught him by his tail feathers and pulled him to the ground.
"No."
Beast Boy changed back and gave his leader a stunned look.
"Beast Boy is right!" Starfire cried looking sick with worry "Terra is our friend!"
Raven stopped walking and turned to face Starfire. "You heard him. We lost. We can't win."
"We stopped the first one!" pleaded Beast Boy.
"Terra stopped the first one," muttered Cyborg. He wielded his left arm like a club and motioned at the tripods and the center craft and picked up his voice, "and now they've got her. There's no way, man."
They watched as the three machines took off and disappeared over the horizon.
"I'm sorry Beast Boy, but they're right." even through his mask Robin was visibly distraught. "We can't stop them, not like this." He sighed and looked at the charred floor beneath him. "Not until we-"
Tears welted in Beast Boys eyes as he rose to his feet. "NO! There isn't time! I expected better than this from you." He took hold of his Titan communicator and threw it at Robin's feet. "If you guys won't help me I'll save her myself!"
The changing bolted for the window and plummeted off the edge. A green bird caught the wind and soared away from the tower. "Beast Boy!" Starfire started to leave and once again Robin restrained a fellow Titan.
"No Star," he said his hand on her shoulder "we can't stop them now, but that doesn't mean we are giving up. We will catch up with them," He pulled out a homing device that displayed the direction and distance of the fleeing tripods. "But we've got some things to take care of first. This isn't over."

"How could the T-Car possibly help us take down one of those things?" questioned Raven under the shadow of her new hood.
"Were not in the garage for the T-Car, Raven. Cy, tell them what you told me last night."
"After I finished my repairs I was trying to find a way for us to take on another tripod. Then it hit me, if an EMP can take down my system then it can down one of those tripods too."
Starfire looked confused. "An 'iempe' is a-?"
"Electromagnetic Pulse: its murder on electronics. I don't know how the first tripod shot me with one, but I was able to create one in a localized effect." Cyborg pulled out a triangular device about the size and shape of a dinner plate. It was silver with blue lit highlights like everything Cyborg builds. "Check it out y'all."
Robin produced a small toy monkey with a pair of cymbals.
"Help me! Help me!" Raven slightly recoiled in fear. "Help me count! One! Two!"
Cyborg attached the EMP device on the toy. "You'll have to attach the mine then directly activate it." He flipped a switch on the mine.
"Five! Sss-" the monkey shook violently as blew arcs of energy fried its circuits.
After a few moments a black glow surrounded the EMP mine. It switched off and levitated to Raven. "Not a problem."
