Chapter 1
It was another quiet day for the Teen Titans, the protectors of Jump City. The Titans consisted of five superheroes: Plasmus, Jinx, Mammoth, Gizmo, and Slade. Together their powers stopped (and often scared) the formerly prevalent criminals in the city and maintained a relative peace. Several villains had been apprehended and arrested, and few others seemed willing to join the prisoner pool.
Today, the Teen Titans faced a typical battle: Robin, the arch-nemesis of Slade and his team, had sent Speedy to rob yet another bank.
The alarm sounded at Titans Tower as two arrows blew up the door to the bank vault. The guards pointed their guns and fired blue laser blasts, but Speedy was speedier as he ducked the beams and loaded four arrows into his bow. He held his bow sideways and fired one arrow at each of the four guards. Each arrow transformed into a net in mid-flight and trapped a guard. Speedy walked slowly and cautiously into the open bank safe.
"Hold it right there!" Slade's voice sounded behind him. Without warning Speedy whirled around and had fired five arrows at the Titans.
"Titans, go!" shouted Slade, and the Titans scattered, letting the arrows stick in the ground harmlessly. Slade twirled his bowstaff around and ran at Speedy, using the bowstaff to deflect arrows. Gizmo pointed his missiles at Speedy while Jinx prepared her hex spells. Slade brought his bowstaff down over his head and Speedy blocked with his own bow. Over Slade's shoulder Speedy saw Jinx's hexes coming and rolled out of the way, dropping his bow and leaving Slade to be hit by Jinx's hexes. Gizmo's missiles flew around and again rocketed towards Speedy. He tried to grab his bow again but the missiles struck before he could reach his bow, throwing him back into the wall of the vault.
Aching all over, Speedy pushed himself up and sized up the situation. Slade had recovered and had his foot on Speedy's bow. With no other choice he drew an arrow in each hand, twirling them around, and charged. He slid right under Mammoth's legs, jamming an arrow into Mammoth's foot as he passed by; the arrow exploded and Mammoth roared in pain. He hurled the other arrow at Jinx as he jumped back up. She dodged the arrow and fired a pink hex. He reached for his bow to defend himself from the three sludge crabs Plasmus had launched but received a kick to the head from Slade. The sludge crabs overcame him and congealed into a sticky pool, trapping him on the floor.
Slade prepared to finish him with a freeze disk but saw a shadow move in the corner of his eye.
"Robin," he growled angrily, and sprang off to follow the shadow.
It was one of only two things the Titans knew about their mysterious leader: He was obsessed with Robin. Only Robin had the power to keep Slade up late in the evidence room; only Robin could give Slade sleepless nights. Robin was elusive and seemingly invincible.
A few more missiles and hexes later, Speedy was unconscious enough to be taken to jail to join the other villains. The Titans set off to find their leader.
On some rooftop in Jump City, Slade battled his obsession and greatest frustration. Robin evaded all of Slade's kicks, punches, disks, and bowstaffs, seemingly with great ease. They continued to punch and kick at each other until finally, with a lucky punch, Slade scraped off Robin's mask. The computer screen behind the mask revealed the body to be another robot.
"Nice try Slade! You'll never get me. I will never be your apprentice…I will always be out there, waiting to strike again…"
The screen started counting down seconds. Slade scrambled for cover as the Robin robot exploded.
In a large, dark cavern with a large network of slowly spinning gears and levers, Robin was nearly done setting up his next plan. Orderly rows of Robin-bots stood awaiting his command. He was going to use them when the time was right. That time would be when the Titans were distracted, and he intended to create that distraction with his villains.
End Chapter
Author's Note: I am considering doing a "rewrite" of an episode from the show, to see how the episode would have gone if the villains and heroes switched places. I might also just continue with an original storyline. I'm not sure what I'll do yet.
