Act 1: Project Equinox

Ch.1 Operation Strike

I slowly made my way to the giant T in the heart of the city. Dressed in my large black cloak, black pants and boots with plus a small white sleeveless muscle shirt on, and my most prized possession, Ace. It was a boomerang-sword of sorts, a simple T shaped handle, surrounded by a circle, with four sharp points coming out each side diagonal to the top of the T its to be thrown, used as a sword, or a shield. I marched towards my destination. The sun was just setting turning the chilly March day even colder. I pulled my cloak tighter around me.

I approached the humongous metal doors and saw a doorbell.

TT+TT+TT+TT+TT

BZZT, BZZT, BZZT Cyborg looked up from his computer, "I wonder what that is"

BZZT, BZZT, BZZT Robin steadily pounded the punching bag. JAB POW "HiYAAA" he jumped kick the bag, tearing it to shreds.

BUUR Kaboooom! Beast Boy sat on the edge of his seat. "Wahoo and Robin said Grand Theft Auto San Andreas was a waste of money."

High above on top of the giant simmering tower Raven sat gently levitating above the ground " Azarath... Metrion… Zinthos." Oblivious to what was going on down stairs.

BZZT, BZZT, BZZT Starfire looked up from her Tamaranian pudding of happiness. "We have the…guest?" Starfire erupted out of the kitchen making a B-line for the elevator.

Beast Boy looked up from his game "What's up with Star?" he instantly returned to his game.

TT+TT+TT+TT+TT

I stood before the immaculate door. I sighed "I knew this was a bad idea…" I turned and start to leave.

There was a creaking sound behind me, I silently turned around "Greetings, how may I do the help?" Before me stood a tall yet slender girl in a purple top and purple short skirt. She had bright red hair; glowing green eyes, her radiant smile and tan skin easily stood out.

Wow, knock out, to bad not my type.

My mouth practically hit the floor. "Um… I was wondering if I might be able to speak to Robin." I barely uttered.

"Glorious, if you follow I shall take you to Robin." The girl whisked around and joyfully headed towards the elevator. I sauntered after her, my right arm numb. "May I inquire why you wish to speak with Robin?"

"Its kinda personal."

I looked down at the numbers on the elevator's console, 50 different numbers were displayed, and we were headed towards 26.

What in the world could they need with so many floors?

Ding!

The door opened and the girl took the lead. We passed multiple different doors.

"We have reached our destination, now if you could excuse me, I have a Tamaranian desert to tend to."

"Okay thank you for your help." I walked up to the door, it slid open.

Just like at Wal-Mart

A lone figure stood in the room. Clad in Green tights and a gray muscle shirt. He furiously swung at a pole with multiple 'limbs' branching out. He jabbed to the left, two sticks came in from the right one near his ankles and one shoulder height, he kicked with his foot and the left side came again.

"Excuse me." Startled the boy wonder turned around in a kung fu stance ready to fight.

"Who are you?" He headed towards the bench and grabbed a towel, whipping the sweat off his forehead.

"No one really, I was wondering if I might be able to join the Titans." I simply stated.

He seemed to freeze, "Um we don't really…um we aren't really looking for new members."

"I understand, I heard about Terra, which is why I'm prepared to do what ever it takes to earn your trust."

"We can give it a shot, we need you to fill out some forms and the team will need to vote, if the majority likes you your in, I'm not saying its in stoer cement or anything, but we can see."

I sighed well at least this is easy

TT+TT+TT+TT+TT

The leader of the Titans had led me again to the elevator.

Floor 49

Ding!

Light filtered in, and we entered a living room, meeting room, and a kitchen all rolled into one. A big screen TV was positioned in the middle of the room, which currently had Carl Johnson of San Andreas driving a tank down the Stripe of Las Venturas. Through the huge windows behind the TV the bay and suspension bridge was amazing to sight. The setting sun had disappeared replaced with a full moon.

Sitting on the couch furiously stabbing at a PS2 controller, sat a green elf like creature, in a black and purple jumpsuit. Sitting at a table to the left of the elevator sat a big form, with blue/silver arms, legs, mid section, and head with pieces of black skin there every once in awhile. The girl in the skirt was over near the kitchen.

"Oh glorious, Robin why is it that this Terran has ventured so far from the city to our humble tower?" Right after the girl said this a small petite figure in a dark blue robe emerged out of the stairwell.

Robin looked her way; "He wants to join the Teen Titans." All the occupants paused at what they were doing and look my way.

Robin walked over to a computer and started printing some documents out, meanwhile all eyes were on me.

"Keep staring and I might do a trick." Some of their eyes left me but the blue cloak and the green elf.

Robin approached me, "You need to fill these out, then we will vote and such, feel free to sit anywhere you like." I took the forms and shuffled over to the counter to sit on a stool.

Name: Equinox (Spyke Krus)

Height: 6'1

Age: 17

Gender: Male

Powers or abilities that will contribute to team: Able to teleport items, breathe in space, teleport through dimensions, and excellent sword; gun wielder. Able to affect gravitational field around objects and people, similar to telekinesis.

Specific Reasons for Joining: My powers were forced upon me, I might as well help others while I try to figure out who is responsible for the last 7 years of my life.

There was more, just nothing to worry about. I went over and handed the forms to Robin. He started to look them over.

BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!

"Titans trouble," Robin ran over to the computer. "The alpha wing of the prison has been destroyed, some one freed all the convicts."

Blip!

GTA disappeared from the screen there was a man in a brown and black suit. You could only see one of his eyes. "Hello Robin."

Damn he looks and sounds familiar, where have I met him?

"SLADE what did you do at the prison!" Robin practically roared.

"What does it look like my boy"

No one responded.

"Titans I have obviously paroled the convicts of this city, along with that in one hour five different parts of town will be blown up by 100 pounds of C4. Shortly afterwards, I will inform all the escapees to attack any citizen they see, and I will release a plethora of my robots on the town."

"Ah I see you have meet Equinox," I clenched my fist "Him and me go back of so far. Nice to see your still doing ok, how's the arm? I hope its still in good condition since when I built it, good luck titans."

Blip! A small flash and the elf was running over another car.

That's it he was one of the scientist.

They all turned to me, "How do you know Slade, and what did he mean about built your arm?" Quizzed the petite figure.

"Let's just say he's the father of my powers."
