Two characters will be re-introduced this chapter, two next chapter, and the one left will be introduced in the chapter after that.
Disclaimer: I do not own Teen Titans. If I did, Slade would not have interrupted Robin and Starfire's goodbye during The End Part 3. (Cuz they were supposed to kiss.) –pout-
.--.BEGIN CHAPTER.--.
A dark figure jutted down the street. Glares from the passing streetlights reflected off the gold mask that covered half of the man's face. Above him, a man in his mid-twenties, leaped from rooftop to rooftop. His shoulder-leangth black hair danced back and forth and the amount of running he was doing was beginning to make his legs pulsate. A grunt escaped his lips as he threw himself towards the ground and landed right in front of the runaway.
"Slade." The older man poised himself.
"You haven't changed a bit." The young man was once known by his parents as Richard Greyson, once known by his friends as Robin, and now known by his enemies as Nightwing. "At least not on the inside."
.--.WHAT HAPPENED TO 'ROBIN'.--.
Nightwing sat in his underground lair. He looked to his Robin costume in the other end of the room. He turned away. He wished he hadn't left Starfire. He had become dependent on friendship. Yeah, now Slade didn't have them to use as a weakness, but now Nightwing had lost part of his reason to fight. He had lost his hope.
An alarm went off. He turned to see there was a robbery in progress. It was Control Freak. He sighed. He thought of the time that they had traveled through television chasing him. And the time they thought Control Freak was seeking his revenge, but it was really Raven's powers out of control. He stood up and sighed. He made his way to his motorcycle and drove it through the exit.
The screams of innocent bystanders could be heard miles away. He sighed. It was always the same story. He'd fight with Control Freak for a bit, then Control Freak would mess up and be defeated. His life was stuck on repeat. What he would give for a little change. Living alone was painful and boring.
"Nightwing. We meet again." Nightwing looked up.
"Here we go again."
.--.PRESENT DAY.--.
Nightwing didn't move from his spot. Slade didn't scare him. He growled a bit. Slade cried out.
"Boo Yeah."
"Cyborg?" Cyborg stood right behind Slade, he walked into Nightwing's view.
"Miss me?"
"What are you… you pledged…" Cyborg's eyes glazed over.
.--.WHAT HAPPENED TO CYBORG.--.
Cyborg kicked back his feet. Menos had long since been saved. It wasn't hard for them to get him back as a team. He smiled as everyone crowded around the table. He felt a presence beside him.
"You gonna eat big boy?" Cyborg smiled and looked up at BumbleBee.
"Yeah, maybe after it clears up a bit."
"This seat taken?" He looked next to him.
"No." She plunked down next to him.
"Hey Cyborg…"
"Yeah?"
"Um… I… I was wondering if…" The alarm went off and BumbleBee sighed. "We better go get that." He stood up and looked at his computer screen. "It's Brother Blood! Come on!" Titans East ran out the door.
Brother Blood was waiting for them to show up.
"I've been waiting for you." In the blink of an eye, he had lashed out and sliced BumbleBee's throat. For good measure, he ran her through. BumbleBee gasped and grasped at her neck. She fell over into Cyborg's arms.
"No…" Brother Blood smiled. Everone stopped and watched as BumbleBee's eyes rolled back into her head. Cyborg's own head snapped up to face Brother Blood. "You will pay for that."
.--.PRESENT DAY.--.
Slade pushed himself back up to his feet. He got ready to attack.
"Oh no you don't…" The two boys looked behind them to see if they really had heard who they thought they heard.
.--.END CHAPTER.--.
Cliffy! How was that? Sorry if it seemed a bit rushed. I'm just doing tiny overviews of their lives. More will be explained about everything later.
Please RnR!
