The Teen Titans have entered a different city and was wondering about LM's
history.
Fourteenth Chapter Notes
When I played the game "Enter the Matrix", I saw a sign that said Metro Police. I believe that the city the Matrix cast fights in is Metro City. I even added Persephone in the story.
Disclaimer: I don't own the city.
Chapter 14: Metro City
LM and the Teen Titans were in the Escalade, driving down a long tunnel. Beast Boy was getting bored of the trip.
Beast Boy: Are we there yet?
LM: For the third time Beast Boy, NO! God dammit, is he always like that?
Robin: He always gets irritated when we go to long trips. Still Beast Boy's right. We'd been in this tunnel for half an hour. When are we going to get there?
LM: Just two more minutes Robin. You could see that we're in an underground tunnel. People will suspect that a car would come out of an abandon building. All teams must make sure that no one notices anything. That's why we built this tunnel, to ensure our safety.
Robin: Safety of what?
LM: Of the Matrix itself.
Beast Boy: If you two are done talking to each other, will you turn on the radio or something, I'm bored to death here.
LM: ALL RIGHT ALREADY! God you're annoying.
LM inserted a Linkin Park CD on the CD player, just to keep Beast Boy happy. A small light opened in front of them, revealing the end of the long tunnel. When they left the tunnel, they were in an old excess roadway that connected to an active freeway. The Escalade went into the freeway without any problems what so ever. The Titans started to realize that they are in a different city.
Starfire: Something tells me we're not in Jump City anymore.
LM: Teen Titans, welcome to Metro City.
The Titans looked at the windshield and saw a city filled with tall skyscrapers. Minutes later, the team entered the city of mystery and the unreal. The Titans were amazed with the sights and sounds of this city. They never see buildings taller then their tower, or how busy the streets are during the day. The truck stopped in the middle of downtown on a red light. As people walked past the Escalade, LM looked at them in concern.
LM: Look at them, all these people. They always do the same thing day in and day out. You know the routine, wake up, have breakfast, go to work, have lunch, go back home, have dinner, and go to sleep. Truth is, is that all of them are slaves in the machine world. What they're doing is extracting energy to fuel the machines power source. What these humans are to the machines, are just plain AA batteries.
Starfire: I understand what you're saying LM. When I was small, the Gordanians sent my sister and me to slavery for six years. Believe me, you don't want to know what it's like when you're a Gordanian slave.
LM: Your slavery and their slavery are a whole lot different Starfire.
Robin: Were you once one of those slaves LM?
LM didn't answer Robin's question and remained silent.
Robin: I'll take that as a yes.
The light turned green and LM continued driving. He then looked at the clock and it read 6:15.
LM: Are you guys hungry?
LM and the Titans went to the nearest Burger King and had their meals. Robin had a Double Whopper value meal, Cyborg ate a Angus Steak Burger, Starfire and Terra both had the Double Cheeseburger value meal, Beast Boy ate two bowls of the Side Garden Salad, and LM had the Chicken Tender value meal. Raven got out of a Starbucks coffee shop holding a cup of herbal tea and sat with her teammates. LM looked at Raven and asked her a question.
LM: Why do you drink that stuff Raven? Why not eat some real food like us?
Raven: Tea helps calm my nerves and all that salty, sugary foods you're eating, would make me lose control of my powers. I remember one time when Beast Boy put sugar in my tea.
Beast Boy: (a little nervous) I thought it was a good joke.
Cyborg: Yeah, well that joke blew up half of public property and almost destroyed the tower. You still have to pay the bills on the four traffic lights, two cars, a mailbox, and the many windows Raven shattered.
Beast Boy: (anime sweat drop) I'm still working on it.
The team continued eating when Robin continued asking questions to LM.
Robin: So, what's your life like before you became a freedom fighter?
LM: Why you ask that?
Cyborg: Well we looked up your Bio on the computer and it said that you had a good life before you killed yourself.
LM: What Bio? My Bio?
Starfire: Yes, it said your name was Luis Javier Morgado and you had a good education and-
LM: I don't want to hear anymore of that crap. Don't want to revisit the past.
Beast Boy: Dude, is your name really Luis?
LM: I'm not Luis, Beast Boy. The Luis you're talking about died three years ago when he found out the truth.
Robin: Is that the same truth that almost killed me?
LM: You could say that.
Starfire: Perhaps you could tell us your side of the story.
LM: Can't.
Robin: Why?
LM: Well-
A ring suddenly disturbed LM. It turned out it was his Samsung cell phone. He took it out and looked at the screen the said "Kid".
Raven: Who's on the phone?
LM: It's Kid, he's the operator of my team and helps us get out of though situations. (turns on phone) Yeah Kid.
Kid: (on the phone) Sir, I spotted the Trainman. He's on subway train number A9 taking a nap.
LM: We're on our way. (hangs up phone) Finish eating and get in the car. NOW!
The Titans finished eating, threw away the food, and headed back in the Escalade. LM pushes the shift staff to drive and slam on the pedal. Civilians dodged out of the way and traffic came to a halt as LM exited the parking lot the hard way and entered the streets.
Robin: What's the hurry?
LM: Kid found the Trainman. He's on the subway car that's numbered A9. If my calculations are correct, he's using the train to take his own train to Mobil Ave. Our only option is to cut him off at 68th Street.
Cyborg: Sounds good, we'll surround him and ask him questions.
LM: Oh yeah, that's a good idea. Except for the fact that he'll stop the train and take another way to get to his train, not to mention slowing us down in the process. Fortunately I have plan to stop him.
LM looked at the clock and it reads 6:55.
LM: We better hurry, his train leaves at 7:30. If we lose him, kiss your freedom goodbye.
LM made a sharp turn on a red light, stopping traffic at the street crossroads. Meanwhile, at the other side of town, a classic black limo with an M on the back doors rode smoothly down a street. Inside the limo, Cain and Abel were sitting on the side, and at the back seat, Merovingian talking to Slade on a cell phone. Sitting next to him was beloved and devoted wife, Persephone.
Merovingian: Yes Slade, everything's set for tonight's meeting.
Slade: (on the phone) Wonderful, I'll be there via satellite.
Merovingian: You know, you're a great man Slade, a very great man. That's why I want to give you something.
Slade: (on the phone) Really, what is it?
Merovingian: You told me that you have a problem with a bunch of teenage misfits. Quoi leur nom de nouveau? Ah yes, the Teen Titans. I bringing in a few presents for you, so you can stop your Titan problem.
Slade: (on the phone) Hmmm... I'll see how good my presents will aid me. In the meantime, I'll see you at the meeting.
Merovingian: Adieu.
He hangs up the phone and threw it to Abel. He then grabbed his glass of Champaign and sipped it. He looked at his wife, who's not enjoying anything at all.
Merovingian: What's wrong my love?
Persephone: It's repulsive that you're working with that slug.
Merovingian: Slug? Come on monchare. Slade's not a slug, he's an important businessman that want's what I want, respect.
Persephone: Is that what you care about, respect? What about love, my love?
Merovingian: Persephone, my love, I do love you. And at midnight, we'll have everything in our love life. (French laughter)
Merovingian's limo rode down the street to the meeting, unaware that LM and the Titans are going to stop them.
French meaning
Quoi leur nom de nouveau?
What's their name again?
