Man, I am SOO sorry it took so long to update! My brain's been in this "don't wanna write" mood. I hate that! And I've been busy (curse you school work! curse you!) But anyway here's more of the story.

Oh, before I forget. I mention something about BB's age in here, I just wanna tell you what ages the Titans are in my story.

On with the story!

Chapter 4 That's not Slade that's…

Jump city. It is a safe and quiet city, courtesy of the Teen Titans. It was said that the young fighters could pull through any challenge, were strong enough to cope with any situation, and could take down any villain. And that's true…save for one thing. There was one villain whom they couldn't defeat, the one villain they didn't even want to fight.

That one villain was now on the roof of the Drake Technology Inc. building. (A/N Drake as in Tim Drake, get it?) He gracefully kicked the main air vent cover off and slipped inside. Guiding through the vent like he was part of the air itself, he quietly searched for his destination. Upon reaching it he swiftly pulled the vent from its hinges, jumped through, and landing on the floor with a "uhf". The room the shadowy figure had come to was almost completely empty save for a glass case with steel locks which stood in the middle of the room. Suddenly the door to the case exploded. When the smoke cleared it became obvious what had happened. The dark villain had thrown a metal boomerang, with an "S" neatly printed on it, at the case. The boomerang-bomb had exploded on contact. Silently the mysterious criminal walked over, reached into the case, and pulled out the case's only treasure the Thermal Blaster.

"He's got the thermal blaster! Stop him!" Yelled one of the guards, who had obviously heard the explosion. The intruder showed no sign of fear as he spun around and ran out the door. He ran swiftly around the outside of the building, with the guards firing laser guns at him. Doing a forward somersault to increase his altitude, he jumped into the air and disappeared.

"Where'd he go?" The guard, who had sounded the alarm, asked.

"I don't know. He just……just disappeared." A second guard replied, oblivious to the shadowed figure that hung upside down from the roof above him.

"Maybe he went this way. Come one!" Commanded the first guard as they all ran around the corner. Within seconds of the guards' disappearance, the shadowed figure silently dropped to the ground; ready to make his escape.

"Freeze, Slade!" A deep voice commanded from behind. Even without turning around the young thief knew to whom the voice belonged. Like most thieves, he immediately tried to run but his exit suddenly became blocked when the changeling and Tamaranean rounded the corner. He spun around only to see that his first instinct had been correct. The Azarathian and the metallic Earthling stood behind him.

"There's nowhere to run." The deep and firm voice, which belonged to Cyborg, continued. Not using a name this time because, it truth, he wasn't sure who he was talking to. Even though he was standing no more than two yards away from the thief, he couldn't get a good look at him for the moon had decided to take this moment to hide behind a cloud. Even though the computer has said the crime was committed by Slade something inside him said differently.

"Why don't you make it easy on yourself and give up?" The green sixteen-year-old mocked, this was going to be easier than he thought. But the villain wasn't out of tricks yet. He knew of one last direction he could go without having to pass the crime fighters. You see, off to his left was a small pier leading away from the scene. Taking his chance the holder of the Thermal Blaster charged down the wooden pier. Without a word the Titans followed at his heels. Like I said before, the pier was a small one so the chase soon came to a stop as the shadow reached the end, skidded to a stop, and bravely turned around seemly ready for a fight. A mischievous smile crossed the changeling's lips as he opened his mouth, most likely to say another bad joke about the smile was immediately replaced with a jaw drop; because at that moment the moon seemed to have gotten interested in the chase and left his hiding stop behind the cloud, letting out a stream of pure bright light…right on the villain. All four of the justice holders had stopped dead in their tracks almost like they'd been frozen. They now all had a perfect view of the criminal but they didn't believe it what they were seeing. It couldn't have been. It shouldn't have been. But it was.

Beast Boy had some how relocated his voice enough to say, "That's not Slade that's…"

"Robin." Starfire finished as she looked upon the criminal who was none other than the Titan leader himself.

Thanx for all the nice reviews! Please review again!
