Ghost dodged a kick, a fist, and a swinging staff as Dark Robin relentlessly attacked the First Mate. Ghost took advantage of Robin's stance and kicked the boy into the wall. He twirled a sword over the boy's body and stabbed down again… but was blown off of his feet by a sonic cannon blast.

The blast carried him into a lounge chair, which toppled over on top of him. "You're under arrest!" Raven laughed as she picked the chair up off of him.

"Funny. Now help me. Bane's out cold," Ghost informed her as she twirled her sword. Cyborg and Robin moved into fighting stances as Ghost cracked his neck.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Uh-oh. Time to leave," Carter whispered, and Nightmare brandished both broadswords. "Let's give the Rebels some time to escape, eh?" he asked, smirking. He grimaced and thrust the swords deep into the 'floor.'

The swords cut into the ceiling. Large tiles fell from the unsupported roof and onto the two vigilantes. Cyborg and Robin were knocked out. "Come on, its time to go," Raven said, dragging Bane into the back room.

She held the phone to Bane's ear, waited less than a second for Sparks to redial, and exited the Matrix. Ghost silently looked at the doorway, seeing for just a second, two blurry figures. He jacked out.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Well, that didn't go so well," Beast Boy said, trying to lighten the mood at the Tower. Raven sat meditating in the corner, as usual. Cyborg was asleep on the couch with an icepack over the fleshy side of his head. Robin sat at his computer, looking for more information about the other Felicitas they had just encountered.

Starfire joyfully held out to him a glowing pastry. "Relax, friend, and try some of my Earthling pie! Beast Boy told me that you liked slices of pie!"

"Beast Boy is a sick little green crap," Robin said, not looking at his friend, but typing away at the keyboard. "Did you find anything?" Beast Boy asked, unperturbed by the insult. As if he even knew the word 'unperturbed.'

"Not a thing. These people weren't Felicitas, and until Cyborg wakes up, I can't scan their images through my database."

The Broadcast Screen lit up. It was Speedy. "Hey, guys! How ya doin'? Heard you've been tracking the Felix terrorist group or whatever! We're getting bugged by this "Mjolnir" group. They keep randomly kidnapping people, and we can't beat them… what's going on with the Felix?"

"Felicitas," Robin corrected. "No luck. The two cells seem pretty similar, though, don't they, Speedy?"

The archer shrugged. "Beats the hell out of me! We're leaving that stuff to Bumblebee. She's smarter than me, or so Aqualad says."

Raven twitched slightly and floated over, eyes still closed. Starfire smiled and looked up. "No, girls, Aqualad is still running around after that Garth guy. He says something about playing off of his identity…"

"Does he look like this?" Robin asked, showing Speedy a picture of the man they had seen during the Felicitas attack.

"Holy crap! That's him! Ooh, this is cool: layer the picture OVER a similar picture of Aqualad… check it out! THEY LOOK THE SAME!"

Robin paled. He quickly brought up two more pictures, scanned them together, and quickly stole a glance over at Raven. He walked up silently behind the stoic girl…

"Come any closer, and I will tear your organs out from your mouth," Raven said simply. Robin froze. "I don't want to wear any stupid hat, Beast Boy."

She turned and Robin quickly snapped a picture. He dodged a black energy bolt, which crashed into a relaxing Beast Boy. "OW!"

Robin uploaded the picture to his computer, and quickly scanned the image of the girl in the apartment building onto the image of Raven. It came up the same.

"Titans, there's something definitely wrong here."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"They figured it out," said Nightmare into his radio.

"Did they encounter the Logos?" said the unmistakable voice of Agent Johnson.

Nightmare smirked. "You should have seen it, sir. The Titans were no match for these free minds." He debated for a moment whether to tell the Agent that Carter was present for the fight.

"That's all great and stuff," said Wilson, on another line, "but I'm chasing Roland's crew, so I can't chat. Instead of talking about how the Rebels can beat a bunch of kids, why don't you help!"

They heard gunshots and Wilson yelling. The phone flew out of his hand as he whipped out his twin Sais and leapt into the storm of bullets.

He dodged several shots from Colt, who quickly exited when the Agent landed in front of him. He turned on Roland and Mauser, the last ones in the Matrix, but Roland batted away the twirling Sais with his shotgun. Mauser exited just as Roland pumped the shotgun and fired at the unprepared Wilson.

Wilson had no choice but to leap into the air. Roland smirked and reached for the phone, but the Agent's foot collided with his head. He flew into the table as Wilson landed on one foot, and he continued by gracefully Matrix-jumping into the air and ax-kicking Roland back onto the table. He pulled out his Sai, twirled it expertly, and drove it at Roland.

The Commander reached for the phone and disappeared, Wilson's Sai embedding itself in the desk where Roland's body had been a moment before.

Wilson spat on the desk and leapt away.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The alarm went off. A tall man in a black trenchcoat burst through the bank wall. The sunlight reflected off of his two broadswords as he dashed away from the scene. Everyone in there was torn up or had tiny shards scattered throughout their skulls.

A man in a white vest and black pants leapt out as well. He loaded several wooden stakes into his crossbow and waited. As a small program dressed in red jump-kicked at him from the roof, he merely extended a hand and caught Dark Robin's foot.

The program gasped, but was too late to do anything else before Carter drove the clone's body into the ground. The rest of the Titans arrived moments later. "Here we go..."

Carter nimbly dodged two starbolts from the oncoming Kory, and took aim. The 'alien' dodged several shards of wood, and fired several more starbolts. Carter merely sidestepped again and fired a solid block of wood at her.

"EEP!" she cried as the impact threw her back. Carter smirked and loaded a new weapon into his crossbow: an EMP grenade.

Nightmare twirled his broadswords and stepped into a fighting stance. Cyborg and Beast Boy foolishly rushed him, while Dark Raven silently entered a meditative pose. She gathered black energy around her as Cyborg fired a blast and Beast Boy turned into a triceratops, both still rushing the entity.

Nightmare reflected the bolt of energy back at Cyborg while Matrix-leaping over the green reptile and slashing down. Beast Boy reverted back to normal as fast as he could, to avoid getting sliced by the sharp weapons. Nightmare's boot collided with the Sakutia-inflicted program as he leapt over the changeling and at Dark Raven.

The girl's meditation was cut short by a pair of beams of light, reflected off of Nightmare's swords. She gasped and quickly attempted to form a protected shield, but she was too slow.

Instead, a blast of sonic waves collided with Nightmare's frame and drove him into a nearby building. Cyborg smirked.

"So, you're like, what, only half mechanical?" a voice dripping with humor said behind him. Cyborg turned and found himself defenseless against Carter. "It only takes half…" he grinned, before firing and knocking the android out of commission with the EMP grenade.

"Cyborg!" Raven yelled. Carter flipped backwards while firing, pinning the half-demon to the wall. "Riyo taught me that trick," the program bragged to Nightmare, "Ciao! I'm gonna go fight for the humans now."

Nightmare watched silently as Carter vanished in a plume of white smoke. "Hey, how's it goin'?" Nightmare laughed at the Titans. He had every reason to laugh.

Robin, facefirst in the pavement and unconscious after a single blow from Carter. Koriand'r, out cold from a heavy shot from Carter's crossbow. Beast Boy with a cracked skull from Nightmare's heavy Goth boots. Cyborg completely shut down from an EMP grenade. Dark Raven was the only Titan awake, but she was pinned in such a fashion that she could not extricate herself. When she began muttering a small series of three words, Nightmare leapt away, across the rooftops.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Johnson," Nightmare whispered into his cell phone.

"What are the results of your reconnaissance, program 7539?"

Nightmare groaned. "I told you, Johnson, my alias is Nightmare. Anyways, don't worry about the Titans. They're happily in their own little fairy world. Carter and I blew them out of the water."

The program almost heard Johnson's pulse quicken. "N…number 7671 was there with you too? Why is he helping you?"

"Yeah, blah blah blah. Carter's not fighting on any one side, stupid. He's just in this for enjoyment, like I am. Still, don't put any pressure on him. He can help the humans if he wants. It's a lost cause. Hasn't Wilson talked to you about that?"

"I didn't even know Wilson had talked to you outside of my company…"

Nightmare coughed. "Never mind then. He'll tell you sooner or later."

"…………"

"Talk later," Nightmare went on. "Looks like some unimportant villain is doing something that these little guys don't agree with. Stupid American justice system."

"Like that even applies here."

"We sound like frickin' humans, don't we?"

"…. I don't like you."

"The feeling is mutual. Well, I'm going to go polish my swords. Have fun doing… Agent stuff." Nightmare snapped the phone into his pocket.

"Jackass," he whispered, before cloaking himself and sneaking into the Tower.
