I know, I'm sorry for updating late…again! Well, here's the next chapter. (I'm so so so sorry!)


Everyone dressed nicely. The girls in dresses and the boys in tuxedos. If not tuxedos, then they're wearing a nice shirt with a tie.

"I may be half robotic, but this dress suits me nice!" said Techna in her pink and white dress,

"Yeah…and I look absolutely ridicules," said Shadow in her purple dress.

"You look fine," said Raven putting on a necklace and wearing a black dress,

"You sound like my mother," said Shadow in an annoying way. Techna only giggled at the fact that Raven pretty much is Shadow's mom.

"Glorious! You look wonderful with that necklace, Raven. You should wear these Earth ornaments more," said Starfire who had a purple and pink dress.

Where the boys are:

"Sorry Avalanche," said Stormy,

"It's alright," he said with a sigh.

"You're going to get drunk form drinking all that milk," said Dakota,

"At least I'll get stronger bones. And you can't get drunk from milk," said Avalanche,

"I said I was sorry," said Stormy again,

"Look, Avalanche, snap out of it. And Stormy, next time, pick a better timing to ask Shadow to the dance because I'm just as upset as Avalanche," said Dakota trying to settle the problem.

"Is Bumblebee coming?" Robin asked Cyborg,

"Yeah, she's coming," he answered.

Robin looked over at Avalanche and Dakota,

"I feel bad that those two don't have dates," said Robin,

"I'm sure they'll still have a good time," said BB who is as happy as can be.

Spiritfire didn't talk at all and is looking out the window, already prepared.


The boys complimented on the girls when they saw them, and went to the dance.

Of course, they danced with the person they asked out when the slow dances are on. But Beastboy was having a hard time getting Raven to dance with him.

"Come on, Raven, just one dance," he pleaded. Robin noticed this,

"I thought we were supposed to help them get together not just have fun," said Robin,

"They can get together on their own," said Techna dancing nearby.

"Raven, just give this a chance. Give me a chance. Just one dance, and if you don't like it, I won't keep nagging you to," said Beastboy,

"Alright, just one," Raven answered.

To these two, it wasn't just a dance. Raven could hear her heart pump, and Beastboy could feel his own temperature rising. Looking at each other, they could see how they truly felt for each other…but love can't be as strong if you don't tell it.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

"Look, I know I asked you, and we both knew how we felt for each other before," Spirit began, "But I think I've changed my feeling now."

"Me too. I also think that I've fallen for another person," said Techna. The two were dancing, but both knew that they didn't have a crush on the other one anymore.

"Well, who have you fallen for?" Spirit asked,

"I'm not telling! But you might as tell me about who you like now," said Techna,

"To be honest, Techna, I'm not really sure now. Whether it's nobody, or this close friend I've had for a long time…" said Spirit.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Dakota and Avalanche were bored.

"Hey guys. I'll dance with you," Techna offered, "But only one at a time," she added as she glanced over her shoulder to see Spirit looking at the dance crowd.

Almost everyone including Robin and Starfire and Cyborg and Bumblebee, were getting close to admitting their love. But Beastboy and Stormy were about to now,

"Raven…"

"Shadow…"

"I lo-" CRASH! Both were cut off.

Everyone looked up. Part of the building they were in had been destroyed and the dust cleared away only to shock every Titan.

"Slade!" the future titans except Spirit looked at Robin who also yelled his name.

"I think you've forgotten that Slade is also the name of our parents' main enemy," Spirit reminded them. Everyone did a "Oh yeah," or "I forgot that" sort of mumble.

"Robin, this isn't the Slade from you time. This Slade is from our time," Avalanche explained which also explained the different clothing this Slade had.

"Hello Titans," he greeted,

"Protect Shadow and Dakota!" Spirit ordered. Shadow preferred to fight, but Dakota was freaked out. He Froze in fear and can't seem to hear anybody as he stared in horror at Slade.

Slade attacked without warning or waiting.

"Titans go!" the leaders ordered but Dakota wouldn't move.

"Look out!" Techna had to save him as she practically tackled him aside.

Spirit stayed in front of Shadow to protect her, but Shadow kept insisting to help fight.

"If I can't have her, then I might as well take someone else," said Slade,

"You're not taking anybody!" said Avalanche making an ice rod to fight with, "Man! And I planned to have a 'no action' vacation!"

While that was happening:

"Slade couldn't have lived this long and still have all his moves," said Cyborg,

"Maybe it's Slade II or something," said Beastboy,

"Shouldn't we help them?" asked Raven,

"No, one thing I learned about them is that you have to fight your own enemies. Whether it's your own feelings…or someone like Slade," said Robin.

The future Titans were able to make Slade flee, but everyone knew that he wasn't gone for good. And everyone was confused about Dakota's reactions, as he was still shaken with fear.
