LOCATION: Titan Tower
Police boats circled the waters surrounding Titan Tower, looking for some trace of the missing heroes. On the island itself, K-9 units combed every nook and cranny of the rocky shore, leaving no stone unturned. In the Tower's common room, the city's police commissioner and a team of forensic scientists dug through the rubble. "What a mess," The commissioner said sadly, surveying the area. "Keep searching boys! You're not paid by the job!" "You won't find anything here," A voice said from behind Commissioner. The commissioner whirled around to face a tall, hawk-faced man dressed in a military uniform. Besides him stood a teenage girl dressed in standard military fatigues.
"The Army? What the hell are you guys doing here?" The commissioner asked, flabbergasted at the presence of such a high-ranking official.
"Not the Army, commissioner. At least, not exactly. I'm Commander Tristan Rayfe. I've been sent here by the P.I.A. We're taking over the investigation," The commander replied.
"Wait, what's the P.I.A.?!" The Commissioner asked angrily. He hardly got to do any police work with the Teen Titans as is without the government stepping in. Needless to say, he was a little more than steamed.
"It's the Paranormal Information Agency. It's best if you don't ask any questions- it pisses the head officers off," Commander Rayfe responded, showing the commissioner his I.D. card.
"Whoa! Security level nine!" The Commissioner exclaimed. "All right fellas, pack your bags. We're out of here," The Commissioner barked. The forensic scientists quickly began to pack their tools.
"Wait. What's this?" Commander Rayfe asked, plucking a minute plastic bag from one of the scientists.
"Just a piece of wire. It probably was dislodged from the wall when it cracked," The scientist replied in a nasally tone.
"I see. What kind of wiring does this tower use?" Commander Rayfe asked.
The scientist flipped through various pages of blueprints. "It says here the Tower uses standard copper wiring. Why do you ask?" he asked.
"Thank you. You are dismissed," The Commander replied, ignoring the scientist question. The flustered investigator left in a rush, along with his co-workers.
When the room emptied, the young girl spoke. "What do you make of this, sir?" she asked quietly.
"Well, it's quite obvious that our man did this. By leaving this wire behind, he might as well of written his name on the bathroom wall," The commander replied.
"I suspected as much. But why would he strike here? I don't think he ever considered the Teen Titans a threat..." The girl replied.
"We'll leave the big questions for the think tank. All we have to do now is find these wayward heroes," Rayfe replied. Suddenly, a ringing chirped from his belt. He took out a small PDA, eyeing the screen intently.
"That was the top brass. They've given us the go-ahead to assemble a team," Rayfe said, walking out of the room.
"Team, sir? I work better alone..." The girl said, with a hint of despair in her voice.
"Not this time. The mission is too big for one person," Rayfe replied, heading outside. As he exited the tower, a helicopter began its descent.
"May I ask who's coming with me, sir?" The girl asked.
"I can do you one better," Rayfe said, climbing into the helicopter as it landed. He handed the girl a manila folder bearing a confidential sticker. "I used some old contacts I have to pick your team members. Trust me, they won't slow you down," he added.
Rayfe turned to signal the pilot for take off. The girl opened the folder, leafing through its contents. "I hope you're right, sir. For all our sakes."
