TEEN TITANS : Search and Rescue

Shockwave sat on the room, screwing away at a metal disc. Cyborg came up. "Whatcha making?" Cyborg asked. "I'm making something that will allow me to fly." Shockwave explained. He looked at it. "Something's still missing." He said. Shockwave saw what was wrong and threw the disc up into the air. He blasted it and carved a lightning bolt symbol on the bottom. The disc fell down and landed in Shockwave's hand. "Perfect."

The alarm went off. "Titans, trouble!" Robin said. The Titans headed for the city. Once in the city, they spread out to find the signal sent by someone. The Titans finally came upon a line of hooded people. "Who are you?" Robin asked. The hooded people did nothing but stand there. "Um, you guys did call us right?" Shockwave asked. The middle hood stepped forward and put his hand out. "Give us the psychic girl." He said. He was signaling for Raven to come to him. "What do you want her for!" Shockwave asked, being over-protective of Raven. "We need her." The hood said. Raven stepped out from behind her boyfriend. "For what exactly?" she asked smoothly.

The hood didn't bother answering. He put his hand out, as did the rest of them. Chains of dark energy blasted from their hands and wrapped around Raven. The Titans gasped as the chains pulled her towards the hoods. Shockwave jumped, attempting to grab Raven but missed. The chains finished pulling and Raven was now in the arms of the leader hood. The hood blasted the ground and a cloud of dust and rock flew everywhere. The Titans coughed, trying to clear the dust. When the dust disappeared, the hoods and Raven had vanished. "Raven?" Shockwave called. The rest of the Titans looked around but found nothing. All that was left was Raven's belt. Shockwave bent down to pick up and sighed. "I couldn't save her…" Shockwave said.

Raven stirred her head pounding. She slowly opened her eyes and saw all the hooded people standing around her. Raven then noticed she'd been binded to a chair. Dark energy rings were holding her to the chair. She heard a faint laugh as on of the hidden hoods stepped out. "Hello, Raven." He said, "We've been waiting for you." Raven gave him an angry look. "Who are you and what do you want?" Raven asked. The hood pulled his hood down. His face looked sort of like Raven's except it looked like a guys and he had longer and more messed up hair. He ran his raven through his hair and began to speak. "My name is Crow." He said, "And we've wanted you to join us for a very long time."

Raven's eyes widened. She was angry, scared and nervous all at the same time. Crow put his hand under Raven's chin, making her to look at him. "But I've had my eyes on you for a longer time." Crow said, "I was so close but then that stupid sparkplug had to take you away." Raven laughed to herself but it was obvious she thought something was funny. "What, may I ask, is so funny?" Crow asked. "You are." Raven said, "If you kept stalking me and never did anything, that's pathetic." The hoods laughed. Crow blushed and turned around to his hoods. "Shut up!" Crow yelled. The hoods stopped laughing and continued to stand. He turned back to Raven. "But now that he's out of the way, I have you all to myself."

Raven turned her head away from Crow. He looked angry and walked away. "Keep an eye on her." He commanded. The hoods made a circle around her with their backs to her. Raven sighed and wondered where her friends were. Crow walked over to a monitor and turned it on.

Shockwave paced back and forth. Starfire watched him. "Shockwave, please, come and sit down. Your troubled mind needs to relax." Starfire said. "No. I need to figure out how to get Raven back." He replied. The giant screen flicked on and Crow's shaded face appeared. Shockwave and Starfire looked up being the only people in the room. "Where's Raven?" Shockwave asked demandingly. Crow smirked. "She is safe with me and she's mine now." Shockwave scowled. Cyborg had come into the room. Stafire went over to him and started explaining what was happening while Shockwave continued to yell at Crow. The screen flicked off and Shockwave sighed. "He's not gonna tell us where Raven's at." Cyborg turned around in his chair by the computers. "Don't worry. I've already pin-pointed his location." Cyborg said.

The Titans walked through a dingy sort of neighborhood. "Where exactly are we going?" Terra asked. "We're looking for Raven!" Shockwave replied, getting a little annoyed. Cyborg was scanning buildings, trying to find the hideout. "We've been at this all day." Beast-Boy complained. Shockwave swung around to face Beast-Boy. "Look! I'm not leaving until Raven's safe!" Shockwave yelled. Everyone turned into little chibi people and shrunk back. He and Cyborg continued searching. "They gotta be around here somewhere." Cyborg said. Shockwave looked around.

He heard a distant voice in his head. It sounded like Raven's. "Cyborg! I hear Raven trying to call out to us." Shockwave said. Cyborg turned on his thermo-scanner and saw some figures in a building down the road a bit. He and Cyborg ran towards the building until they were right at the front door. Shockwave tried to open the door but it wouldn't budge. "I got this." Cyborg said. He blasted the door and it fell down. Shockwave gave Cyborg a hi-five before the rushed into the building. They looked around but just saw an empty room. "What a rip-off." Shockwave said. "Look." Cyborg said. He pointed to a staircase leading to a lower floor. "They must be downstairs then." Shockwave exclaimed.

He and Cyborg rushed down the stairs. Cyborg stopped and looked behind him. "Where's everyone else?" he asked. "Who cares." Shockwave said as he ran past Cyborg and down the stairs. Cyborg shrugged and ran after Shockwave. The stairs led to a small platform over-looking a giant room. Shockwave and Cyborg looked off the platform and saw over a hundred hoods with Crow, pacing back in forth in front of them. And behind Crow, Raven was still binded to the chair. "Time to give this thing a test drive." Shockwave said as his disc from earlier unfolded. He threw the disc out and jumped onto it. His hands glowed with electricity as it surrounded the disc to keep it flying. Shockwave started blasting a bunch of the hoods in the back of their heads.

Cyborg jumped down and started blasting hoods down as well. Many were already turned around anyway. Crow had taken notice but because of all the people, he couldn't see who was attacking. He decided to just stand in front of Raven. The hoods surrounded Shockwave and Cyborg. The two were back-to-back blasting down hoods as the jumped at them. The last hood jumped at and the two Titans blasted him with a combination blast. Floating over the unconscious bodies, Crow made his way over to them. "Ok, give us back Raven and I won't have to shove your head down your neck!" Shockwave yelled. "Kid, I'm right here. You don't need to yell." Crow said. Cyborg and Shockwave just kept giving him a dirty look. Shockwave's eyes met Cyborg's. They both nodded.

Cyborg grabbed Crow and put him in a headlock while Shockwave made a break for Raven. Crow used his psy-power and blasted Cyborg off. He shot dark energy chains at Shockwave. They coiled around him and he fell to the ground. Crow laughed and went over to Raven. "Did you honestly think you'd be able to save her from me?" Crow asked. The chains were covering Shockwave's mouth so he couldn't yell at him. Crow smirked and turned back to Raven. "You see, he couldn't save you so why don't you just join me." Crow suggested as he leaned into her face. He started to try to kiss her but he heard a faint rumbling. Crow and Raven looked over to see sparks of electricity coming from the chains around Shockwave.

The chains erupted off Shockwave in a blinding light. When the light died down, Shockwave stood there. Lightning energy was streaming from his eyes and his whole body was covered in electricity. "Get…away…from…her!" Shockwave demanded. He dashed at Crow, catching him off-guard. Shockwave slammed Crow into the wall, leaving a nice mark. He grabbed his cape and swung him into the wall on the opposite side of the room. "Cyborg! Get Raven out of here!" Shockwave said, "I have some business to take care of." Cyborg nodded and went over to get Raven out of her imprisonment.

As soon as Cyborg had gotten Raven to safety, Shockwave walked over to Crow, who was lying weakly on the ground. "Had enough?" Shockwave asked him. Crow looked up and scowled. Shockwave put his hand out to help him up. Crow reached out but Shockwave just slammed his fist into his face. Shockwave put his hands out and electricity erupted from his hands. Loosed items began swirling around with the lighting twister Shockwave's power was creating. Lightning was now rushing out of his eyes. Crow looked wide-eyed, scared out of his mind. Shockwave looked down at Crow and gave him an evil smile before letting off his attack.

Cyborg and Raven had met up with the other Titans. "Where's Shockwave?" Robin asked. Raven opened her mouth to explain just as the building she'd just came out of exploded. Crow's body came flying out along with a lot of rock. Shockwave, now standing on his disc, came floating out of the building's remains. "There he is." Beast-Boy said. Shockwave stepped off the disc and walked over to Crow. The rest of the Titans just watched. Shockwave picked up Crow and his hand lit up with electricity. "No, please!" Crow cried. "Shockwave, no!" Raven yelled. She ran out and grabbed onto Shockwave. He looked at her and saw how scared she was. The lightning in his eyes faded as did the energy on his hand. He let go of Crow and hugged Raven. "I'm sorry." Shockwave said. "It's ok." Raven replied.

"How touching." Crow said. He shot them both with dark energy. Shockwave and Raven got back up and glared at Crow. "Oops." Crow said. Shockwave and Raven both fired an attack and blasted Crow.

Back at Titans Tower…

"Sorry about earlier." Shockwave said. He and Raven were sitting on his bed. "It's ok Shockwave. It's not your fault." Raven assured him Shockwave sighed. "I just went a little crazy because I didn't want him to hurt you." Raven smiled and gave a kiss on the cheek. "You're sweet." She said, "Now c'mon. Beast-Boy said he has something to show all of us." Raven grabbed his hand. Shockwave smiled and followed her down the hall. He was just glad to have her back.
