DISCLAIMER: Same deal as in the previous chapter. I do not own either Teen Titans or Megas XLR, but I am responsible for writing this fanfic.

Don't know what's happened so far? Check the end of the last chapter for a synopsis.

UPDATE: For those who already read this chapter (and my apologies to those who already submitted a review for it), listen up. I had to go on a trip recently, and since I wouldn't be having any access to a computer, I wanted this next chapter submitted before leaving. However, there were still some minor changes and an extra scene I wanted to add which I completely forgot about at the time, so I'm resubmitting this chapter with the extra stuff included. Also, AnT raised some interesting points in his review for the first chapter, so in response I'm giving my two cents on the matter.

The way I see it, comparing Terra to Raven is like comparing Donkey Kong to Ganondorf in SSBM. Although Ganondorf is undoubtedly the stronger one, he's harder to handle while DK, though not as strong, is more user-friendly. A CPU-controlled DK hardly puts up a fight compared to other characters, but when controlled by an experienced player, he suddenly becomes lethal. It's a similar case with Terra. On her own, she's only so strong, but when controlled by someone who knows what they're doing, the true potential of that power is realized. That would explain how Terra defeated all of the Titans, let alone Raven, in Aftershock, since Slade was in control at the time. Also, controlling Terra would be easier than doing so with Raven, which would take too much effort and her dark powers aren't meant to be tampered with anyway. :P

And with that, we move onto:

Chapter 2: Jump City gets jumped

While Gorrath's next plan of assault is underway, Coop, Jamie and Kiva are at Coop's place in Jersey, relaxing and making some adjustments to Megas...well, two of them, at least. Kiva is doing a systems check on Megas while Coop is making a couple of quick installations to the cockpit a.k.a. his car. Jamie has just returned from inside Coop's house with a bag of potato chips in hand. After finishing it and dumping the bag while inside the car, he asks"So, Coop, what'd you add to Megas this time"

"I felt like putting in something simple but practical: a minifridge and a microwave," he replied.

"A microwave?" butted in Kiva. "Coop, before you decided to put in a microwave, did you even bother to consider how the radiation waves might interfere with Megas' programming?"

"Uh, yeah, and not to mention the fridge in your house can barely keep up with your appetite," added in Jamie. "How's a minifridge gonna do that?"

"Well, that doesn't mean I can't have a nice hot snack during our trips, does it?" answered back the large blonde. He then turned his attention to Kiva. "And don't worry about the microwave, Kiva. I'm using one of those travel-sized deals. They're designed to be safe."

"Still, I'd prefer it if you didn't take any chances, for obvious reasons."

"Aw, come on!" complained Coop. "Okay, so my add-ons sometimes backfire and land us into trouble..."

"Sometimes? Try 'all the time,' Coop," remarked Jamie. Coop narrowed his eyes in annoyance.

"...but at least I end up getting us out of it," he continued.

"Well, you're the only one who knows how to drive Megas anyway." Jamie added in.

"Thanks, Jamie, you're being a big help right now," replied Coop sarcastically.

"Besides, with all these sensitive controls, I'd advise against eating in the cockpit." reminded Kiva.

"Sheesh, you sound like my mom," remarked Coop. He was then reminded of a particular childhood experience upon saying this.

-(begin flashback)-

Coop, about ten years old, is riding in the back seat of his mom's car with her driving it. She's just ordered him a kid's meal from a McDonald's (or whatever else it's called in the show) drive-thru when she started driving off.

"Remember, Coop-honey, no eating in the car," she instructed.

"Aw, but mom, I'm really hungry!" young Coop objected. "Can't I eat here just this once?"

"And get your new clothes stained? I don't think so. Besides, I need you to take out the trash when we get home, and I wouldn't want any of those nasty stray dogs trying to eat you thinking that your clothes are food for them," she warned.

"I promise I'll be careful. I'm so hungry I could eat every crumb anyway. Please, mom?" in case that wasn't enough, young Coop topped it off with the cutest sad face he could put up for his mom, which seemed to convince her.

"Oh, alright, but be careful," she decided.

"Yes!" Coop said to himself, diving right into his meal. It was true that he was hungry enough to eat every last crumb, which he did. He even almost took a bite out of the toy that came with his meal. However, as he ate as messily as he did, a piece of the patty of his burger landed on his shirt, leaving behind enough of its juices to leave a scent. He also had a few fries get on his shirt, heightening that scent. Even he ate every last crumb, he couldn't avoiding staining his light-blue T-shirt in the process.

Soon after he finished, his mom pulled up to the driveway of their house, and the two got out after parking. As Coop raced into the house with the trash of his meal along with his free toy in hand, his mom reminded, "Don't forget to take out the trash!"

"Okay, mom!" he shouted back, heading for the kitchen. After putting his trash with the rest in the bin, he tied up the bag and headed back outside to dump it in the garbage can out near the sidewalk. At this moment, a stray dog was rummaging through a garbage can across the street for food. The dog could smell the stain on Coop's T-shirt and, driven by hunger, lunged at him. Coop ran for the house in fear as soon as he saw the dog trying to run him down and it eventually caught ahold of his shirt. "You want my shirt? Take it!" he told his attacker, giving up his shirt without hesitation. However the dog wasn't done with him yet. As Coop grabbed the door to his house he felt a strong jerk to his leg. The dog wanted his jeans, thinking it was food as it did the shirt. "You want my jeans? It's yours, free of charge!" he said, giving them up. Wearing only sneakers and briefs now, he got back inside, locking the door. His mom was in the kitchen doing the dishes.

"So, did you take out the- "

"Yeah, mom, taken care of!" he spat out as he ran upstairs to his room, slamming his door shut. Out of breath, he stood with his back against the door trying to regain his composure from that stressful experience. Having calmed down, he went to open the blinds of his window only to see his enemy watching him from behind it. After yelping in fear, he closed the blinds, stepping back slowly in fear of the crazed animal. Suspicious over what's happened, his mom goes up to check on him.

"Coop-honey, is everything alright?" she asked while opening the door and saw her son wearing only his briefs and sneakers.

Turning to his mom, Coop suddenly felt like a statue and couldn't seem to move, especially since he'd just realized that he'd soiled himself from his encounter with the rabid animal. "Oh, I'm...fine...thanks for asking."

"Why are you in your briefs?"

"Oh, I was just...getting ready to take a shower."

"But you hate showers. Even when I remind you to take one, you don't do it," she reminded him.

"Well..." Coop was sweating under the pressure. That sweat gave him just the excuse he needed. "It feels hot and sticky today, so I figured showering would be a good way to cool off." With that, he got a clean pair of briefs from his dresser, some clean clothes from his closet and rushed to the bathroom. One would assume that someone would wise up about eating in a car after an experience like that, but if your car happens to be the head of a giant fighting robot, then such experiences don't apply, apparently. Any dog with common sense would think twice before so much as taking a tinkle on one.

-(end flashback)-

"Anyways," continued Coop, "can't I at least take it through a test run? If anything bad happens, I'll uninstall it, but I still wanna keep the minifridge to keep some sodas and stuff in. How's that sound?"

"Well..." Kiva took Coop's offer into consideration. It would be wise of her to refuse, but she didn't want to be too big a party-pooper for the husky blonde. If she accepted, both sides would be happy, but there would still be a risk involved. Just to be safe, Coop even threw in the same cute sad face he used during that one childhood moment on Kiva, which seemed to work as it did on his mom. "Okay, fine," she decided. "I'll let you test your microwave, but be careful."

"Rock on!" Coop said joyously. "Okay, Jamie, hand me an overstuffed beef and bean burrito from the minifridge so I can try this out."

"One overstuffed microwave beef and bean burrito comin' right up," said Jamie, reaching into the minifridge located in front of his seat, pulling out the frozen food item and handing it to Coop. He placed it in the microwave, closed the door cover, set the time and then kicked back as his snack was being prepared. Meanwhile, Kiva continued with Megas' systems check while keeping an eye out for any irregularities as a result of the microwave being in use.

"Well, so far so good," started Kiva. "I'm not sensing any interference from your microwave, Coop."

"See? What'd I tell ya?" he replied.

"Good idea, man," complimented Jamie. He and Coop gave their usual "rock on!" hand gesture. "Maybe this time nothing bad's gonna happen." About half a minute later, he and Coop noticed the burrito swelling up like a balloon in the microwave. "Uh, Coop, I think you were supposed to punch holes in the wrapping or something so that- " Jamie was saying, but was cut off when the burrito exploded, splattering its filling all over the controls. While he was sort of expecting something like that to happen for speaking too soon, Coop and Kiva had annoyed looks on their faces.

"That's it. No more burritos from Texaco, I'm sticking with 7 Eleven," said Coop.

"Or maybe some burritos can't handle being fat like you can," remarked Jamie. "Maybe you shoulda used a regular one instead."

"Too small. I'd go hungry again after five seconds."

Kiva was annoyed enough from the exploding burrito, but the boys' bickering was too much. "Look, let's just clean this mess up before it causes any permanent damage to the systems," she instructed, but it was too late. Enough burrito filling had already seeped into the controls to start a fluxuation. As a result, Megas suddenly started making crazy motions, including stamping its feet, flailing its arms around, doing pieroettes (however that word is spelled) like a ballerina, and even doing the Mario (swing your arms from side to side, come on, it's time to go do the Mario!).

"Coop, stop this crazy thing!" shouted Jamie.

"I'm trying! Nothing's working!" After switching gears and pressing buttons here and there, Coop eventually activated Megas' rear thrusters at full blast by accident and they took off heading west at hypersonic speeds with everyone screaming in panic.

Meanwhile in Jump City (about time I got to this part!), the Amazing Mumbo has broken out of jail and is now robbing a bank. Having dealt with the tellers and security guards there by tying them up or otherwise with his bag of tricks, Mumbo was free to help himself to the cash. "Abra Cadabra!" he shouted, twirling his wand and revealing a stick of dynamite in its place, which he used to blast open the bank's vault door. He then used his hat as a vacuum to suck up all the money inside. Before heading out, he turned back to his victims. "Thank you so much, ladies and gents, you've been a wonderful audience. Ta ta!" And with that, he bolted out the door, only to end up running into none other than the Teen Titans.

"Decided to come back for an encore performance, eh, Mumbo?" said Robin. "I thought your show got canceled when we sent you off to jail."

"That was merely an intermission, my friend," replied the crazed magician. "Now that I'm back, the show must go on!" He then reached into his hat and pulled out a bazooka, firing a round at the Titans with it.

"Titans! GO!" the leader called out, and the team dispersed, dodging the madman's warhead. They attempted to surround Mumbo as he continued firing away. Starfire fired back with a series of starbolts, but Mumbo countered with a set of mirrors he made magically appear with a wave of his cape.

"Mirrors mirrors that I unfurl, send those bolts right back at the girl!" he shouted as Starfire's attack struck the mirrors and was heading right back at her. Narrowly avoiding her own attack, it was Beast Boy's turn to strike. Transformed into a lion, he lunged at Mumbo, but before he could get close enough Mumbo concealed himself in smoke with a quick shout of "Hocus Pocus!", revealing a set of three magical hats when the smoke cleared. He was hiding in one of those hats, so Beast Boy tried looking in each one, starting by ripping the hat on the far right to shreds; Mumbo wasn't there. He then tried the center hat with no luck. The remaining hat concealed a surprise: a spring-loaded mechanism which launched the green Titan sky-high as he pounced on it. Afterwards, Mumbo reappeared out of the remaining hat, wiping dust off his suit.

It was then Raven's turn to strike. "Azarath, Metrion, Zinthos!" she shouted, grabbing hold of two manhole covers and hurling them at the pale-faced maniac. Whipping out his wand, Mumbo counters with a spell of his own.

"Mumbo Jumbo!" he shouted, turning the iron discs into spinning dishes on sticks. "This next trick will blow you away!" he proclaimed, spinning the dishes faster and faster with his magic until they produced massive twisters which he then launched at the young sorceress. Raven used her dark powers to slip underground just before the twisters got too close. She reappeared after they passed.

"Yo, grandpa!" yelled Cyborg.

"Huh?" Mumbo turned around only to be struck by a shot from Cyborg's sonic cannon, sending him screaming into a dumpster.

"Booyah!" cried the half-mech since he scored the first real blow.

"Not bad," said Mumbo, dodging more shots from Cyborg's weapon, "but I have an ace up my sleeve!" Pulling out an ace card from his sleeve, he extended it into a whip which he used to wrap around Cyborg with. He flung him around and around until eventually tossing him into the same dumpster Cyborg slammed him into. "It must be garbage day, because I'm taking out the trash!"

"Aw man, why didn't I think of saying something like that when I had the chance?" said Cyborg to himself.

Just then, a few explosions encircled Mumbo. When the smoke cleared, he saw Robin with his fighting pole extended, ready to strike. "Well, Robin, I trust you're familiar with '52 pick-up,' am I right?" he asked, pulling out a deck of cards. "Let's see how you like 52 KILL SHOT!" Mumbo launched all his cards at Robin with the force and speed of shuriken blades (a.k.a. ninja stars) all at once. Robin deflected all of his cards with the twirling of his pole, going for a jump attack directly afterwards. "Well, I think it's time I should be gone with the wind..." said Mumbo, letting himself be sucked in by his own hat just as Robin was about to strike. The wind was in control now, making the black top hat tumble every which way as the Titans' leader continued to swing his pole at it in hopes of scoring a hit. He eventually grabbed ahold of it and reached inside the hat aiming to pull out the disgruntled performer, but instead pulled out a bomb. Startled, Robin quickly disposed of the explosive but lost his grip on the hat in the process. He saw Mumbo rematerialize atop a building, taking a glimpse at an oversized gold watch before putting it away. "I'm so sorry, ladies and gents, but due to time constraints I'm afraid I must bring this show to an early end," he announced, pulling a gas-powered scooter from his hat. "Toodles!" And with that, Mumbo hopped down to the road and rode off attempting to get away with his loot. Just then the Titans reassembled.

"Dude, how many tricks is this guy gonna pull on us?" asked Beast Boy, annoyed by Mumbo's antics.

"Yes, I agree that he is quite resourceful," said Starfire.

"Don't worry, guys," replied Robin. "We'll stop him like we did last time, but we can't let him get away! Come on!" They continued their chase as the loopy-minded criminal laughed maniacally during his getaway. That laughter was abruptly cut short when Mumbo was smashed flat into the pavement by something that could only be described as massive, at least for the moment. All of a sudden, the Titans had a literally bigger problem on their hands now...

And now for the Teen Titans theme song!

(cue Hi Hi Puffy Ami-Yumi music)

When there's trouble, you know who to call...

TEEN TITANS!

From their tower, they can see it all...

TEEN TITANS!

When there's evil on the attack

You can rest knowing they got your back

Just when the world needs heroes on patrol...

Teen Titans, GO!

With their superpowers, they unite...

TEEN TITANS!

Never met a villain that they liked...

TEEN TITANS!

They got the bad guys on the run

They never stop 'til the job gets done

Just when the world is losing all control...

Teen Titans, GO!

1-2-3-4-GO!

(end Hi Hi Puffy Ami-Yumi music)

TEEN TITANS!

Returning to the action, the Titans were shocked to see what it was that smashed Mumbo from out of nowhere. Upon further inspection, it was a massive, snot-green colored, crooked-shaped fighting robot armed with a huge chain gun and an ugly-looking face for the cockpit. Did I mention it was huge? Well, it is. This thing is taller than most of the buildings in the city. I mean, heck, it makes the place look like a kid's playground by comparison...okay, you get the idea. Anywho, it was Gorrath, carrying out the first phase of his new plan. "Hmmm. I think I stepped in something," he said to himself. Looking under the left foot of his mech, he noticed Mumbo smeared on it. Using a nearby lamppost as a stick, Gorrath scraped him off and continued heading through the city towards the cave where Terra's remains are located.

As Gorrath headed onward, the police arrived at the scene with an ambulance and took Mumbo into custody. "Ugh...anyone get the number of that steamroller?" he asked dazedly as he was being carried away. Meanwhile, the Titans were perplexed over the sudden arrival of this mysterious visitor.

"Dude! Where'd this guy come from all of a sudden?" asked Beast Boy.

"A friend of yours, Star?" asked Cyborg rhetorically.

"No! I can assure you I have never seen anything like this before," replied Starfire.

"Well, this thing's a lot uglier than Slade's giant worms were, that's for sure," remarked Raven.

"I don't know what this thing is or what it's planning, but I'm in the mood to ask it some questions," suggested Robin. The rest of the team agreed and headed towards the oversized robot to find out who he is and why he's here. When they got close enough, Starfire grabbed Robin and held him up in front of the alien's cockpit. Raven was hovering next to them while Beast Boy was carrying Cyborg in the talons of his pterydactyl form (sorry if I mispelled that). "Stop! Who are you and what're you doing here?" demanded Robin.

"So, you must be the so-called 'Teen Titans,'" answered back Gorrath.

"I see you've heard of us," continued Robin. "So did you come looking for an autograph or something?"

"From a bunch of weaklings like you! Don't make me laugh! I can think of better ways to waste my time! I'm here for a much more valuable prize. And if you're wise, you'll stay out of my way!" As Gorrath threatened them, he pointed his huge gun at Robin. The team's eyes widened in fright.

"Don't you dare hurt Robin, whoever you are!" shouted Starfire.

"Oh, pardon me, where are my manners? I didn't even properly introduce myself," remembered Gorrath, so he did just that. "I am Warmaster Gorrath, supreme leader of the Glorft. It is our destiny to become the supreme overlords of the universe, and with our unmatched military might, that destiny will be fulfilled! Every living creature in the universe will cower in fear from our mere presence! You puny earthers would be foolish to try and challenge us, so don't even bother trying." He then turned his attention to Starfire. "And Starfire, is it? I have a little message for you. Once the Glorft have conquered Earth, Tamaran will be our next target!" Starfire's eyes grew wide in disbelief from that last threat, and Robin stood all he could stand from the alien's threats long enough.

"You don't scare us!" shouted back Robin. "As far as I'm concerned, your machine is just an oversized piece of junk, which we're gonna send back to the scrap heap! Titans! GO!" The Titans then attacked the mech with full-force: Starfire with her starbolts, Cyborg with his cannon, Raven launching whatever she could find at it (including the dumpster from earlier), Beast Boy ramming it as various massive animals, and Robin with his usual arsenal. However, even after such a barrage, not so much as a scratch was left on Gorrath's mech. He didn't even move out of place! Realizing this, stronger attacks were attempted.

"Cyborg!" called Beast Boy. "Let's go for the Beast Boy Blitz!" He then launched himself into Cyborg's arms in the form of an armadillo, who then tossed him at the mech with his strongest pitch. Before impact, he transformed into a T-rex, but Gorrath simply caught him and tossed him aside like a cheap plastic toy (a T-rex is just that small compared to Gorrath's machine). Afterwards, Robin called for another attack.

"Cyborg! Time for the Sonic Boom!" He and Cyborg ran at the oversized mech, picking up speed until intercepting paths and running up the sides of two opposite buildings with Robin throwing one of his sound disks and Cyborg following with his sonic cannon. The cannon struck the disk, intensifying the power of the attack as it continued for Gorrath's mech. The attack was a direct hit, but as the resulting smoke cleared, Gorrath remained standing, unscathed and laughing at the super-powered teenagers' futile attempts at bringing him down.

"If that last attack was any stronger, it might have tickled!" confidently remarked the snot-green alien.

"Okay...so we know this thing is well-built now," said Cyborg.

"Any ideas, Robin?" asked Raven.

"Don't worry. As long as we keep at it, this thing'll go down eventually," the leader assured his comrades. "Besides, this Gorrath-guy may be bluffing about his whole 'unmatched military might.' It's not like he has an army of these things standing by in case something goes wrong..."

"Oh, but that's where you're wrong..." Gorrath then contacted his Commander. "Commander. Send in the reinforcements."

"Yes, sir," replied the Commander. Within seconds, a huge wave of Glorft mechs practically plummeted out of the sky, landing to Earth at jet speeds. There were nearly hundreds of them, each one as big as Gorrath's mech. Nearly all of Jump City was overrun by the Glorft in less than a minute, making the area appear to be covered in snot at a distance. The Titans were utterly shocked at the mere sight of the war-mechs.

"You just had to say something..." remarked Raven, eyeing Robin.

"And just to show we mean business..." Gorrath then pointed one of his units towards Titans Tower.

"He is heading for our tower!" gasped Starfire. The mech, after landing beside the tower, punched into a spot in the nearby water, exposing an opening which it reached into and pulled out the T-Ship. (Author's note: I know that the ship is originally called the T-Sub and then later modified for space travel, and is no longer limited to travel by sea. Therefore, I will be refering to it as the T-Ship)

"My T-Ship!" shouted Cyborg. The massive soldier-mech then took the ship and broke it in half like a cheap toy, slamming the two pieces together and reducing the machine to scrap metal. The Titans were shocked to see their ship destroyed so easily, especially Cyborg who originally built it.

"And this is only the tip of the iceburg," added in Gorrath.

"Man! These guys aren't joking!" exclaimed Cyborg, in tears over the loss of his beloved ship.

"I don't suppose you have just the plan to deal with these snot-green aliens, do you, Robin?" asked Beast Boy. Robin was still in utter disbelief at the firepower these new foes were packing.

"I...I don't...I'm sorry..." said Robin in a low, defeated voice. "We couldn't even damage so much as just one of those things using all we had. It's gonna take a miracle to stop a threat this big." After saying the word "miracle" something else massive was zooming in from the east at hypersonic speeds.

And that's it for chapter 2! The Glorft have shown the Teen Titans just what they're packing, and Robin doesn't know what to do. But what's this? Is that Megas coming to lend just the help needed to deal with these guys? Will Coop stop the Glorft before they can make off with Terra's remains? Or for that matter, did they even manage to fix their little trouble-shooting problem yet? Find out what happens next in chapter 3: Operation: Save Terra!

END NOTE: Big chapter this time, but I put quite a bit of effort into it. Remember to read and review to tell me what you think so far, and to give any good suggestions for what should happen next or questions about the fic. I personally think this story is coming out good so far, but I'll let you readers decide.
