Seeing that CrazyDeafGirl loves my story so much, I'll try to make these last two chapters the greatest things you've ever read, thanks for your support. I also need a new disclaimer so here it goes:
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the Teen Titans and/or Ghost agents and anything having to do with them (Lockdown, C-10, C-10 canister rifles, aggression inhibitors etc.)
Okay, now that that's off my mind, time for the closing chapters. So here goes.

Chapter 9: Final Showdown Part-I
The moment Warp and the Ghost agents appeared inside the prison compound sirens went off. Instinctively, Warp went into battle mode and powered up his shoulder mounted laser cannons. Moments later, they saw a group of ten heavily armored robot officers, the red lights of the alarms bouncing off their metallic armors. Warp took a few steps back; his cannons were not fully charged yet. The three agents vanished, leaving both Warp and the Robot officers confused, three loud gunshots were heard and a couple of milliseconds later, all ten Robots exploded in a tremendous explosion. The three were once again visible
"Now that this is over with, we can go and find Blackfire" Said one of them, he had a rusty, almost mechanic voice. Warp nodded and they kept on walking down the hall, looking occasionally over their shoulders. "Cell number 209147, prisoner name: Blackfire of Tamaran" read one of the ghosts "Yup, this is the one" He placed an explosive charge on the door and ducked under a nearby table "Fire in the hole!" screeched his metallic voice as the lock on the door exploded. Warp stepped in and looked around; inside he found a young girl, about 16 or 17 was his guess. She had an energy field surrounding her eyes and hands. Warp unfolded a note Slade has given him and punched in the numbers written on it. The fields and the restrains holding Blackfire dissolved. She massaged her wrists and then looked up to see Warp
"Who are you?" she asked
"I am but a messenger. My boss, Slade, wishes to meet you, Blackfire of Tamaran" Warp tried to make himself sound majestic and by the look in Blackfire's eyes, he did a pretty good job
"Oh yeah?" replied Blackfire in a taunting tone "and what's in it for me?"
"Well..." Warp's voice had a cunning sound in it "he said you'll get to straighten out some...'family manners' if you know what I mean..."
Blackfire pondered for a few seconds "Okay, when are we getting there?"
"Right now..." the five disappeared into a blue blast and reemerged at Slade's underground base.
"Warp" came Slade's voice "I need you to do one more delivery for me, I need you to bring here the one ingredient missing for me to bring down those pesky Titans"
"And who would that be?" Warp sounded quite curious
"Terra" replied the voice from the shadows "I need Terra, now go!"
Warp nodded and vanished into a blue explosion.
"Ghosts, I also need you to make a delivery for me. I need you to get to Jump city's prison and free Control Freak, tell him my scientists are already working on a new remote control for him"
"Roger that boss, we won't fail you, we never do" replied all three ghosts as one
"You'd better not" threatened Slade
He heard the door closed and then was surrounded by silence "Everything's seems to be working according to plan. Once I'll have all the villains under my control, I'll finally be able to bring down those annoying Teen Titans!" When the last two words flashed through his brain, he slammed his fist against the wall, causing a large, visible crack to appear. "Yes, just as planned..." he laughed an evil laugh, so loud that it made bats fly overhead, rattling the walls of the little cavern.
"This is SO dull!" screamed Beast Boy. He, Robin and Cyborg were already through with the fund raiser and were headed home, on foot for a change. Both Robin and Cyborg liked walking. Beast Boy on the other hand was grouching and kicking small rocks that were in his path "Let's make one walk by the prison, do check if everything's alright" suggested Robin, Cyborg nodded and Beast Boy reluctantly tagged along. It was when they walked by the east side of the detention center when Beast Boy said "Hey, Robin, Cy, do you have that feeling like someone's watching you?"
"Dude, you're imagining things, chill" said Cyborg, Robin didn't even bother to answer Beast Boy.
"Red leader, this is blue wing, I got a situation here. Code 97, over" said one of the Ghost agents. He was watching the three using his ocular implants
"Copy that blue wing, please elaborate, over" replied the strike team's leader
"I got Bird Boy, Green Skin and Metal Mayhem walking by the east side, recommended course of action? Over"
"Take them out. Over"
"Copy that. Over and out"
The agent raised his C-10 canister rifle and took aim
"Hey BB, what's that red stuff on your head?" asked Cyborg
"Wacha talking about dude?" Came Beast Boy's reply
"You got a red zit or something on the side of your head...um...wait a sec, let me try to take it off" Cyborg pushed his metal finger against the red dot and was surprised to find it on his finger. Robin's eyes widened and he screamed "HIT THE DECK!" he jumped on Beast Boy, knocking him to the ground, dodging the explosive round by a few millimeters. The C-10 canister flew overhead and crashed into the sidewalk, blowing a round crater in it.
"Cy! Get a beat on the shooter! Beast Boy, take it to the air!" barked Robin. Just then, a second canister hit Cyborg directly at the chest. The explosion blew the metallic man's arm off and launched him towards a car.
"I saw the muzzle flash!" screamed Cyborg. He morphed his right arm into the sonic cannon and fired towards on of the rooftops. He took down three floors and with them fell the agent. He got up from the rubble and dusted his suit. The black dressed agent walked towards the three, clapping his hands.
"Very well done Cyborg. Well done indeed. Now" he gave them a 'come on' signal with his hand "Come and get me"
Beast Boy was up first. He changed into a Velociraptor and charged at the agent who moved to the side, causing the green dinosaur to skid and morph into a cheetah, again, Beast Boy charged and again, he missed by a hair
"Only music can soothe the savage beast? I don't think so!" said the Ghost. He pulled a small handgun from his sidearm holster and shot Beast Boy in the back of the head. The green skinned boy yelped as the silver projectile made its way to his spinal cord. Beast Boy fell on the ground, unable to move.
"What did you do to him?" snapped Robin, his eyes burning with rage
"Just an aggression inhibitor. You'll be able to remove it at your med-lab. Who's next?" he taunted
"My turn!" Cyborg fired a barrage of sonic blasts, they all missed. He charged at the agent with top speed. In response. The Ghost raised his gun and fired. He hit Cyborg at the chest and a loud electrical surge noise was heard, sparks flew from Cyborg's body and he was also paralyzed.
"All it took was a little lockdown round" mocked the black dressed assassin.
"What am I supposed to figure out of this little act?" teased Robin "so you got a supped-up gun and a couple of tricks, does this supposed to impress me?'Cause if it does, you're doing a really lame job" Robin then extended his Bo-staff and said "Let's fight like real men"
"Gladly" replied the Ghost. He threw his gun aside and pulled a combat knife from the back of his left leg.
"Hay-Ya!" screamed Robin as he lunged at the agent, his staff first
"Very nice" said the Ghost "For an amateur" He blocked Robin's attack and kicked his ribs, knocking all the air out of him. Robin fell to the ground but used his staff to sweep the agent off his feet, knocking him the ground. Robin tried to pounce again, this time he went for the head. The agent rolled aside but the blow hit his left shoulder and even though it was covered by a piece of hard plastic armor, Robin felt the shoulder bone dislocates. The Ghost screamed in pain and went for Robin's heart. The Boy Wonder dodged the lethal stab but got hit in his right arm. He screamed in pain and looked at his arm, a long cut was on it, he was bleeding, but it wasn't critical. The ghost rolled and got up, trying to punch Robin in the face while he was at it. Robin blocked the punch, but missed the painful kick to his stomach. He knew he was going to lose. As a last move of desperation, Robin unpacked five stunt grenades and threw them towards the agent. To his luck, it was a direct hit. The assassin flew back a long distance and lied on the floor motionless "and stay down" thought Robin. He picked up Beast Boy and to his luck, he saw the effect of the lockdown round has worn off. Cyborg got up and both he and Robin carried Beast Boy to the Titans Tower.
"Beast Boy! Oh no! What has happened to him?" screamed Starfire when she saw the three enter the tower.
"It's nothing, he's just...asleep Star" answered Robin. When she turned around, he motioned Gizmo to follow him to the med-lab. There, While Robin was taking Beast Boy's X-ray and at the same time putting a bandage on his arm Cyborg talked to Gizmo.
"What do you want from me tin-man?" started Gizmo
"Now remember Giz, we're on the same team now and I need you're help on something" answered Cyborg calmly
"Oh..." Gizmo lowered his eyes "What's it about?"
"Well, you're an expert when it comes to guns and ammunition right?" Gizmo nodded "Good, then take a good look at this" Cyborg handed him the C-10 canister rifle
"Whoa!" screamed Gizmo "Where did you find this thing?"
"What is it anyway?" asked the confused Cyborg
"That's a C-10 canister rifle. I didn't even know those things are real. I mean I've heard of them, but I've never really-"
"Cut to the chase" Cyborg interrupted him "What does it does that makes it so special?"
"It's very simple. This gun fires 25mm C-10 canisters at high speed, C-10 is highly explosive so two shots from this baby can take out a tank, well, if the lockdown won't get it first"
"Lockdown?" asked Cyborg "What the heck is that?"
"The C-10 rifle also has the ability to fire special lockdown rounds which upon impact, will paralyze anything mechanical by using a high frequency E.M.P" explained Gizmo
"Just like he did me..." hummed Cyborg while rubbing his chin
"Did you? What do mean did you?" asked Gizmo
"Ah, it was nothing. Some new recruit of Slade used this gun against us"
"Does that new soldier look kinda like this?" Gizmo used his hologram projector and a 3-D image of the Ghost agent appeared in front of Cyborg
"Yup, that's the one" answered Cyborg
"Oh man, Oh man, Oh man, and Oh man "said Gizmo while holding his head"This is not good, this is SO not good"
"What is it Giz?" Now Cyborg sounded concerned
"A couple of months ago, there was a break into one of the military research labs at Gothem. According to the rumors, whoever broke into there stole 3 fully equipped Ghost suits and the weapon schematics"
"What's so bad about that?"
"I think that soldier you fought earlier was just messing with you. Because the Ghost suit can give any trained soldier the ability to take out all of us together"
"Why? What makes it so special?!" now Cyborg was completely freaked out
"The dudes who designed the Ghost suit had only one thing in mind: a perfect spy. So naturally, Ghost agents can CLOAK themselves from the naked eye and from your sensors. It features enhanced strength and speed..." Gizmo kept on reading the file in his laptop when his face turned pale "Ohhhhh.....maaaaaaaan"
"What? What does it say?" Roared Cyborg
"If the Ghost agent has reached a maximum distance of 5 kilometers from its target. It can use the laser designator located under its right ocular implant to paint the targeted structure or area for a...for a...a..." Gizmo looked as if he was about to vomit
"FOR A WHAT GIZ?! TALK TO ME MAN!"
Gizmo didn't speak; he turned the screen of the laptop towards Cyborg which was now as pale as chalk. The last three words on the document were flashing red and white
-Tactical Nuclear Strike-
"Red leader to Slade, Red leader to Slade, come in, over"
"I hear you Ghost, report, over" Answered Slade in his monotonous tone
"We have the package, repeat, we have the package. Over"
"Excellent, bring him here"
"I understand boss, over and out"
Just then, the inside of the cavern shined blue and Warp announced "Oh honey...I'm home!"
"Excellent" Answered Slade "Where is Terra?"
"Over here, master" replied Terra
"Terra, good to have you back" Slade sounded almost sweet, it made Warp feel sick
"Good to be back, master, good to be back"
"Nukes?!" roared Robin "Are you telling me Slade can now launch NUKES?!"
"What are those 'Nukes' Robin?" asked Starfire
"They're weapons Starfire, very dangerous and devastative ones too. One hit can destroy the entire city and now that Slade has them..." Robin passed his hand through his hair "Oh man"
"Look on the bright side Robin" tried Happy "Maybe he doesn't know how to use them yet. I mean, he sounds like a pretty stupid man"
"He is stupid" Jinx joined Happy "If he thinks he can take down the Teen Titans"
Robin approached Happy "Um...Happy, I know it's unfair to ask you for this but-"
"Spit it out" said Happy with her everlasting smile
"We need Raven" Robin closed his eyes like he was expecting a death blow to land on his head.
"I see..." Said Happy. She grabbed her mirror and a second before she was engulfed by the black flames. Beast Boy hugged her "I love you, I'll always will" he said
"So will I" came her reply. The flames surrounded her and a few seconds later. Raven emerged back. "We'll talk about this later" she whispered to Beast Boy.
Robin explained the situation to her
"If there's one thing I'll agree with happy, it's that Slade was stupid for messing with us" Started Raven
"Because everyone knows that no matter the odds" continued Beast Boy
"Or how big, ugly and strong are our enemies" Noted Cyborg
"We will always prevail over them" Said Starfire
"Because there hasn't been a force strong enough to stop the Teen Titans" added Robin
"Not in the past" said Gizmo
"Not in the present" added Jinx
"And not in the future" Concluded Red-X
"So the only thing left to say is..." started Robin "TEEN TITANS!"
They all continued as one "GO!"
