Chapter 13:- When Titans Clash

"Bloodhound," muttered Gar, and instantly he felt his body change into that of a bloodhound's. He paced around the shed a bit, then turned back to his human form. "Alligator," he said, and his body transformed again. From alligator, to pelican. From pelican, to cat. From cat, to horse. From horse, to bat. From bat, to his human form. Gar looked at his hands and saw the worms wriggle under his skin, and smiled.

Outside, Raven approached the shed with a load of food under her arm. She saw the inflated rubber glove clinging to the door, and remained still momentarily, and looked around. No-one in front, to the side, or above. She turned to check behind her and got a face full of Johnny Rancid's rancid breath.

Johnny grabbed the food. "You brought me a present. How kind of you Goth chick."

Raven took a step backward. "I heard you're boyfriend's dead. No-one's gonna protect you now." He made a grab for her cloak and pulled her towards him. The food fell onto the ground. "You're mine for the taking."

The crowd gathered. Raven's eyes glowed blood red and Johnny saw.

"What the hell are you?"

Raven snarled.

"I don't date freaks. But I'll send you to see your boyfriend anyway." Johnny drew back his fist.

"Get away from her!" came a yell.

"No… Gar…" whispered Raven. Johnny dropped her and turned to the green boy who stood in the doorway of the shed. The crowd gasped.

"You're green? Hah! You really are a beast boy! No worries! You'll pay for what you did last time!" Johnny yelled and charged at Gar. But Gar shrunk to a lizard, and Johnny ran headfirst into the shed door.

"What the hell?" added Johnny as the lizard turned into a green wolf and pounced on him, jaws snapping. "Holy crap!" yelled Johnny. The crowd gasped and scattered in fear.

The green wolf transformed into a llama and spat a gigantic wad of saliva into Johnny's face. Johnny tried to throw punches, but the llama became a budgie and Johnny missed every punch he threw. Vic, Dick, Kori, and Jinx ran up to Raven.

The budgie became an ape and grabbed Johnny around the feet and swung him round in circles before flinging him onto the roof. Then the ape turned back into the green Garfield Logan and looked at his friends.

"Gar? You're alive? And green?" said Jinx in astonishment.

Vic's father ran up alongside the principal, Mr. Sebastian, followed by armed members of the L.C.P.D. "That's him. The Logan boy. Douse him," Vic's father yelled.

"GAR! GET OUT OF HERE!" yelled Raven. Gar leaped up and transformed into a dragonfly and sped off into the open sky.

"SHOOT HIM!" yelled Vic's father.

Vic ran up to his father, Jinx behind him. "What are you doing?"

"He can change into animals son! Think of the things S.T.A.R. could do with that power!"

"He's my friend!"

"He's a freak and he needs to be studied!"

Vic grabbed his father by the collar menacingly. Every gun in the hands of a police officer turned on him. He let his father go reluctantly.

"Find the boy," said Vic's father. "And get the girl who was protecting him too."

The police officers scattered around the area whilst Vic and his father snarled at each other.

Raven ran as fast as she could away from the scene until she felt two hands grab her and turn her around. It was Dick, Kori just behind him.

"Where's Gar?"

Raven stayed silent.

"Raven! Where's Gar?"

"Leave it Dick."

"Show me how to find him," Dick said menacingly.

Raven was silent.

"I can help him!"

At Dick's words, she remembered Gar's treatment in the hospital, Dr. Register's words, Mr. Stone's words. Raven saw the police officers fan out around them and level their guns. She closed her eyes, and had a burst of black magic expel from her, throwing Dick and Kori backward, through the air and onto the ground.

"I won't let anyone else hurt him."

The police officers fired, but their bullets bounced harmlessly off the black magic screen Raven summoned in front of her. She looked skyward, and in the form of a giant black bird, she flew upward and into the horizon.

"Regroup. Fan into the city," yelled the lead police officer. The policemen disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Kori got up first and helped Dick up. "I believe my friend, it is time to go."

Dick nodded.

Gar was crouching the 'W' of the Wayne Industries building when Raven found him.

"Rae? Are you alright?"

"I'm fine. You?"

"Fine."

"You can control it then."

"Yes."

She looked down on the ground at watched two police cars speed past. "We have to get out of here."

"Duh."

"Good to see you're back to your old self."

"Thanks."

They both heard the sound of someone landing behind them and span around at the same time. What they saw was Robin squatting on the roof, holding his staff defensively and an familiar looking orange girl floating just off the edge.

"Robin…" muttered Gar.

"Mr. Stone is…" started Robin.

"You're working for him!" yelled Raven, letting the black magic flow. The letters of 'WAYNE' flew upward and shot toward Robin. He hit the 'W' with his staff deflecting it harmlessly, then spun around and struck the 'A' instantly breaking it in two. He jumped, landing on the 'Y', flipping onto the 'N', then jumping onto the 'E' and off, to land a graceful, yet powerful, kick to Raven's jaw. She fell onto the ground, clutching her face, as Robin leapt down beside her and placed his staff to her throat.

"I'm not here to fight you. I'm here to help you."

The green lion collided into Robin, and flung him to the ground. The Boy Wonder defended all the blows from the lion's gnashing teeth and slashing claws as they rolled along the rooftop fighting.

Starfire let loose with her star bolts and the lion jumped off Robin to avoid them. It landed next to the - now standing - Raven, where it quickly changed back into Gar.

Robin stood up, leveled his staff and wielded it offensively. Starfire's eyes glowed green and green globes encircled her hands.

Gar morphed his arm into that of a giant crab's and wielded it offensively. Raven's eyes glowed red and black globes encircled her hands.

They stood in a face off. Ready for anything. A titan of nature versus a titan of humanity. A titan of darkness versus a titan of light.

"Bring it on…" muttered Gar.
