Disclaimer: I don't own the Teen Titans. DC comics does.
The Teen Titans were in the T-Car, speeding off to the hospital, which was ten miles away. Cyborg managed to get there in two minutes. He grabbed Beast Boy, and then the Titans ran into the hospital.
"We have an emergency. Beast Boy's been poisoned with the African toxin, Sakutia, and he's lost his mind, and will die if we don't find a cure," Robin rapidly told the nurse behind the desk. She looked at him and nodded. "We have a professional here who can help him." She flipped on her intercom and spoke into it. "Doctor Kraner, we have an emergency. Please come to the front, immediately."
Approximately 12 seconds later, a doctor appeared. He had "Lloyd P. Kraner" stitched across his white lab coat, with a stethoscope hanging from his neck. He had brown, wavy hair, shot with grey, and brown eyes.
"He looks… kind of familiar," Raven thought to herself. She dismissed it as fatigue playing with her brain.
"We need to take the victim to the poison center, ASAP," said Kraner. "Where is he?"
Cyborg held up the Cy-Ball (that's the name I'm giving it. So there.) "This is friend Beast Boy," explained Starfire. Beast Boy was currently in human form, and looked like he was having a staring contest with Kraner. The doctor looked at him for a moment, then took the Cy-Ball and said, "Follow me."
The Titans followed Dr. Kraner through the hospital, passing many injured and sick people. They got to the poison control center, where Kraner placed the Cy-Ball on a vacant stretcher. "Could you undo this for me, please?" he asked. Cyborg leaned over, pressed a few things on the lid, and the Cy-Ball turned into a Frisbee-sized disk, planting Beast Boy on the table.
"He can shape-shift, too. Apparently he's gotten this toxin before, and his parents used some kind of experimental cure…" Raven explained. "Don't worry. I know all about this boy here. He's something of a legacy in the medical world, along with you, Mister Stone," Kraner replied. Cyborg blushed a bit.
All of a sudden, everyone's Titan communicator went of, jangling with their theme song. "You have to be KIDDING me!" Robin explained. He flipped his communicator open, and looked at the screen. "It's the HIVE. They know we're distracted, and their robbing a bank downtown."
Starfire looked at Beast Boy concernedly. "What are we going to do?" It was Raven, not Robin, who responded.
"Robin, Starfire and I will go after the HIVE. Cyborg will stay here with Beast Boy, to look after him. We'll come back as soon as we can. Cyborg, if anything happens, you call us, and we'll come right away, HIVE or no."
Robin looked at Raven. "Are you strong enough to fight?" "Of course I am," Raven replied. "And besides, that witch needs a serious beating for what she's done to Beast Boy."
"So it's decided then," Kraner said. "I will start working on Garfield immediately. I need you four to leave, and I'll let you know how he's doing."
The four Titans walked out of the room, and as Robin, Starfire, and Raven left the building, Raven couldn't help but wonder, "How did he know Beast Boy's name?"
At the Jump City bank, the annoying midget, the cruel witch, and the stupid genetic mutant were collecting as much cash as they could from the broken vaults, when Jinx spotted the three Titans in the distance. "Looks like they're missing some members, boys."
The Titans trio swooped in, Star holding onto Robin, and Raven flying beside them. Starfire flew ahead, and neatly deposited Robin on top of Gizmo, who shrieked and flew away with his retractable wing system. Starfire threw starbolts at Mammoth, and Raven went after Jinx.
"You will PAY for what you did to Beast Boy," Raven angrily growled at Jinx. "You've got to catch me before you can hurt me," Jinx spat back. Black slivers of energy met with boomerangs of pink fire, and a vicious fight began.
"You're not getting away with this," Robin yelled, throwing a Birdarang at Gizmo and snapping off some of his spider-legs. "Says you, ya crudmuncher," retorted the midget. They began to duke it out, Robin throwing discs, Gizmo shooting missiles.
Starfire and Mammoth didn't even bother with innuendo. Both began attacking each other as fiercely as possible. Starfire soared up over Mammoth, and sent a barrage of starbolts raining down on Mammoth's head. He groaned, and fell to the ground in a heap.
Robin pulled a rope out of his utility belt. Using his bo staff to distract Gizmo, the Boy Wonder slipped the rope behind the midget, and tied him up. "Take that, Gizmo," Robin said triumphantly.
Meanwhile, the two girls were still fighting with magic, and Jinx was losing ground. "Mad because I got your little friend sick?" Jinx taunted, making Raven really mad. Jinx didn't realize that when Raven got mad, people got hurt. Four demonic eyes glowed from under her hood, and things around them – money, bricks, one of Gizmo's spider legs – began flying toward Jinx at high speeds. Jinx managed to dodge them all, but didn't avoid Raven's next hit – Mammoth. The two villains collided, and didn't get up.
Raven's eyes changed back to normal, and a rock encased in black fire flew over and knocked Gizmo on the head, giving him a quick K.O.
"Let's get back to the hospital."
Aaaand cut! That's all for today, folks! I'll be updating soon, don't worry… that is, IF you submit SEVEN reviews. SEVEN, or else I WILL NOT UPDATE!!! (I'm being nicer – last time I said ten.) so REVIEW!
