Crash Slayer: okay, I will try to get her speech down better.
Synch14: I hope you will continue to like it!
TheDeadWalk: This is and AU story, (Alternate Universe) so I'm not trying to screw up any Teen Titan history!
JUNIOR1985: I'm thinkin ch. 2 or 3
Inu Girl 1445: Glad you think so!
Digimon Lantern 1: I'm writing more chapters ASAP, captain!
becs1: thanks for the info! I do read comics, but just for leisure. With them talking about "Spiderman" the movie, I just thought the readers would appreciate a reference to something well-known now so that the teen titans would appear genuinely "teenaged." I also thought it would be funny to mention it because, hell, they're the teen titans! They don't need to watch Spiderman when they could easily have a movie of their own! And yes, you've heard correct, it is very fun to write with redk Clark!
Author's note: Thank you for all of your wonderful reviews! I hope everyone will continue to read! The reason why not all of the titans are attacking him at once is because each battle is quick and action-packed! Who would want to interfere with that?? Now, about this chapter, I will include the battle with each of the titans, which some of you may not believe goes into one chapter, but I like to write stories (and I know this sounds really lazy) that get right to the point. Yes, I will go into detail in most areas, but I like to keep the story moving so everyone stays interested. But, feel free to kick me if I start running too fast! thanks! WaffleNinja aka Tracey

chapter one
"RAAAAGH!," shouted Cyborg, charging the boy with the dark hair.
Kal turned up from his 'work' to meet face-to-face with Cyborg's shoulder! Cyborg ran into the mystery robber at full speed, sending Kal flying back into the wall of the bank, rubble and debris covering his body.
"Well, that was easy," said Cyborg, grinning widely.
"Go Cyborg, go Cyborg," he sang, dancing to an imaginary song, "I beat him, so easy, oh yeah! oh yeah oh yeah oh-- AAAGH!"
Cyborg's little victory dance was interruped by a large rock slamming into his chest. The large piece of earth knocked him back a few feet, but he quickly regained his footing. Cyborg looked up at Clark, disbelieving.
"I don't know how you came outta there, but this time you're mine for sure!" he yelled, charging at Clark once again.
The two super-strong teens clashed together, causing a loud BOOM and lots of dust to swirl into the air. Once the dust cleared, however, it was an amazing sight. There they were, each of them holding each other's hands, their fingers interlocked. It was a test of pure strength.
Cyborg clenched his teeth.
"This guy's tough," he whispered, and looking at his energy meter, his mechanical body was working at 100. Cyborg looked into the face of his opponent, confused to see that the robber's expression was a sly smirk creeping across his calm face.
The next thing Cyborg knew he was being flung backwards through the air, crashing through the walls of two buildings before skidding to a stop, his unconcious head bumping into the wall of yet another skyscraper.
"Cyborg!" shreiked Starfire, turning on Clark, her eyes glowing an ominous green. "You will pay for hurting my friend!"
A glowing green energy was forming around Starfire's already clenched fists as she took to the air and sailed towards Clark, alternating shooting star bolts at him from her left and right hand.
The first few balls of energy hit a slightly startled Clark right in the chest, sending him flying through the air and landing to a skidding stop on the hard asphalt. As quickly as he had been struck down, though, he jumped back up and ran towards the tamaranian girl. Starfire wasn't too shocked to see the robber get back up again so quickly, considering he had just easily overcome Cyborg. Starfire would see to it that he wouldn't get any further.
Starfire hurled bolt after bolt of energy at Clark, but she was surprised to find that he was easily dodging each and every one with superhuman speed.
As Clark dodged Starfire's attacks, he ran in as close as he could before lunged himself into the air and attempted to level the flying girl with a powerful punch. Starfire just barely dodged, however, and she counter-attacked with a powerful beam of energy from her eyes.
For a second time Clark was knocked to the pavement. He was getting really angry now, all he wanted was some cash, now whether or not he stole it meant nothing to him under the influence of the red kryponite. It also meant that he would take down anyone crime-fighting losers that tried to stop him. Clark growled as he ran full speed at this annoying red-headed girl.
Again Clark tried the same rushing tactic, but this time instead of trying to punch her, he simply reached out and grabbed her ankle before she could figure out what he was trying to do.
Gotcha...
A cold grin crept up on Clark's face, and using a great amount of strength, he flung Starfire straight down.
Starfire was unable to stop her rapid descent and all she managed to do was try and sheild her face from impact as her body slammed into the concrete, creating a deep crater and knocking her unconscious, all of this happening in a matter of seconds.
"Don't worry Star, Beast Boy's got your back!," BB called out confidently.
In the blink of an eye beast boy was no longer in the form of a young teenage boy, but the size and shape of an adult gorilla! He only had a second or two find his weapon of choice so he could kick this guy's butt. BB looked around quickly, and his gaze fell upon a slightly-bent light pole laying on the ground.
This'll do the trick, thought BB, lifting the heavy metal pole in his ape hands and facing Clark squarely, his weapon securely grasped in his hand.
Clark was somewhat amused. This little green kid was going to take him down? Alone? He expressed his amusement with an audible chuckle.
"You know you can't beat me, right?"
BB replied, his voice low and serious; and knowing beast boy, that didn't happen very often.
"Try me."
Without a second to lose, BB ran at Clark, swinging his pole angrily. Despite BB's best efforts to look terrifying, Clark just stood there. Crossing his arms, and a confident smile creeping across his face, Clark focused his vision on the metal pole, a thin stream of heat coming from his eyes.
BB roared again and was about to level Clark with a mighty blow when the pole in his grasp started to feel hot... WAY TOO HOT!
"OOOWW!" screamed beast boy, who turned back into his normal self and began hopping around in pain. "ow ow ow owowowowow!" Beast boy's strange... behavior was stopped abrubtly when Clark's fist connected with the young boy's face, knocking him easily to the ground. All beast boy could see before he blacked out was Raven's figure fly into battle.
Raven didn't hesitate for a second after BB was taken down, and she flew into battle at full force. Concentrating her powers on one of the broken-down police cars scattering the area, Raven lifted it into the air and hurled it at Clark, the force of the impact sliding him backwards across the street. He managed to stay on his feet though, but before he could counter Raven used her power to wrap the car around Clark, a perfect metal prison for any regular criminal.
But Clark wasn't just any criminal, of course.
Clark only had to struggle for a second before he broke free of the police car, sending many pieced flying high into the sky.
"Azarath Metrion, ZYNTH- aah!"
Clark smiled as the tire sailed through the air and hit the hooded girl head on. After all, he had to somehow thank her for the nice car parts she gave him to throw at her. As she fell and hit the ground unconcious, Clark cockily called out to her.
"I think you better get some shorter words!"
Robin's mind was reeling. How had this... guy... taken down his whole team in a few moments? It was unreal! The teen titans were the best crime-fightinting team in west! Robin couldn't even count on two hands all of the enemies they had defeated. They had defeated anything from crazy freaks (mad maude), giant monsters (plasmus), heck, they had even done well against a couple of... gods. (thunder and lightning) Robin recalled that they had just recently taken down a guy who called himself punk rocker. Robin knew his team wasn't invincible, they had lost only a very few number of times, but they were usually against more then one opponent then, like their situation with the hive school.
"I have to stop him," Robin whispered, determination set in his features.
The two stared at each other, neither flinching. It's now or never thought Robin as he took out his trusty silver pole and, spinning it, made the first move in the soon-to-be-heated battle.
Clark could tell that this one was somehow different than the others. Sure, they were good, really good, (better than any of the meteor freaks he encountered back in... well, back from that place.) but Robin had a level head and skills to boot. This is gonna be fun Clark thought.
As Robin neared his target, he cocked up his weapon and brought it around, hard, aiming at Clark's chest, giving a yell as he did so.
Clark blocked the first hit with his forearm, but he had to move quickly in order to block the onslaught of swings and jabs that Robin was delivering. They two of them circled around the debris-littered street, Robin attacking vigorously with his rod, and Clark blocking effortlessly with his arms and hands.
After a few clashes of seconds-quick battle, the two broke apart on either side of the street. Robin was already preparing to charge in again, but he happened to glance at his pole before he did so. Robin's trusty titanium weapon was bent in several places, probably caused by Clark's arms, so much so that Robin tossed it aside, and instead pulling out a few circular disks.
Robin hurled all three of his circular bombs at Clark. One straight at him, and the other two hitting either side of the building behind him, causing more debris to fly and more dust to be kicked up. Robin could only wait anxiously for the dust to clear, and as it did, all he could see before recieving a punch in the gut was a blur and then a very angry-looking robber.
Robin fell to the ground, and, clutching his aching chest, he slowly rose to his feet. His body was moving slowly, but his mind was racing.
He's fast... too fast, he thought, I can't beat him with speed alone, I have to try and surprise him!
With his new plan in mind, Robin charged Clark one last time. He kicked punched, and dodged his fair share of attacks but he was waiting for the perfect moment to execute his plan. Clark swung a fist at his head and Robin dodged it by a hair.
NOW!
In the split second after he dodged the attack, Robin jumped straight into Clark, and punched him in square in the jaw. Everything had gone according to plan. Everything, that is, except for the fact that Clark was invincible.
"AAAGH!" Robin screamed, falling involuntarily to his knees and clutching his now broken hand in pain.
It only took a moment for Robin to realized that he had lost. He only had a moment though, because he soon recieved a powerful uppercut to the jaw, sending him colliding into a barely recovered Cyborg.
"Later, losers," laughed Clark as he snatched up his bag of money and sped away in a blur.
Soon all of the teen titans were gathered together again, nursing their injuries. They stood in a circle and looked at each other in silent understanding, and they all agreed on one thing. Beast boy was the only one able to vocally admit it.
"Dudes, was it just me, or did we seriously get our butts kicked?"
"BEAST BOY!!"
"Sorry!"
The light from a single television screen shone in the dark room. The screen was showing a scene being played outside of one of San Fransisco's many banks. Out of all the security cameras on the scene, this was the only one that hadn't been melted with heat vision-er, destroyed. The tv screen was showing the teen titans regrouping after being soundly beaten.
"Dudes, was it just me, or did we seriously get our butts kicked?" The video paused itself.
Silence.
Then only one word could be heard coming from the darkness.
"Excellent..."
(to be continued...)
: I wasn't too too sure what her "bolts" are, but I think that may be what they're called! If not, they are now because it's an alternate universe! (sorry all hardcore starfire fans!) '
: Punk rocker was the bad guy in the Teen Titan's lost episode that can be viewed on !
sorry for ko'ing Raven so fast, but it was only this time, I don't think of her any less than any of the other teen titans, it was just the luck of the draw... and Raven wasn't so lucky I guess... (Raven: "I'll kill you..." Waffle Nin: "I'm sorry!" cowers)
yes, so there's the chapter, I hope you like it! I had to give a few shout-outs to some of the previous teen titan bad guys, so for all of you geeks that know who they are, I love ya! ( those are the villains on the show anyhow, I have yet to read Teen Titans comics, but I am seriously considering getting a few to help with this story!)
I seem to have some sort of weird thingy with my writing. I ALWAYS SUCK WHEN I START ( the beginning of the chap. ) BUT WHEN I COME TOWARDS THEN END I LIKE MY WORK A WHOLE LOT MORE. just me? I don't think so. REVIEW! REVIEW! (I got 10 for the prologue alone! I was so surprised... that's because I have had 2 other fanfics and I got NO REVIEWS on one, and then only 2 on the other...)
