Diclaimer: Blah blah blah!

See-More and Private HIVE laughed.

But Gizmo, Jinx, and Mammoth weren't laughing, their faces in total shock.

"Okay," said Mammoth, "who are you and what did you do with the Titans?"

"Dude," said pink-bunny Beast Boy, "we ARE the Titans?"

"Oh yeah?" said Gizmo. "Hey Rain-bot? What's the square root of two?"

"Err…" murmured Cyborg "Pie?"

Gizmo shook his head. "Yup. Something's wrong."

Jinx stared. "Raven would never wear a dress like that. Not even if you paid her."

"Don't be so hard on them Jinx!" Chuckled See-More.

Private HIVE was beside himself. "It's just that Teen Titans aren't quite teenagers anymore! Heh heh heh heh heh!"

Jinx turned on them. "That's it. The two of you are off the HIVE Five!"

"WHAT?"

"You heard the lady," said Mammoth as he cracked his knuckles. "You're both fired."

Meanwhile, Gizmo pushed on his control pad, firing out a large laser beam. The Titans vanished in the light.

"I teleported them home," said Gizmo. "Let's go see what's wrong with those poor buggers…"

The HIVE trio vanished.

See-More and Private HIVE looked at each other. "Man…" muttered the former.

"If the Headmaster were here, they would be dis-ci-plined severely!"

"And that's exactly what I'll do to you!"

The two of them turned to face the three-eyed greenness of Mother-Mae-Eye.

"WHERE ARE MY KIDS?" She screamed.

T-T-T-T-T-T

"So, why are you helping us?"

The Titans were with the HIVE trio, clothed normally, scratching their heads to make out the weirdness that happened to them.

"The way we see it," said Mammoth, "you'll owe us for saving your lives."

Jinx grinned. "Not that we expect you to go easier on us…"

"But if we're ever in a life-threatening situation, just remember who saved your cludge-headed lives!" Gizmo finished.

Cyborg looked at his arm. "I think she's coming."

The wall of the HIVE lair broke down as a furious Mother-Mae-Eye barged in.

"What are you doing here?" she screamed. "The five of you should have been home twenty minutes ago! You're all punished!"

Raven gave a low hiss. "You aren't our mother."

"Well then maybe you should eat some more pie!"

She was about to wave her wand when a voice came out.

"There you are, mom!"

Appearing out of nowhere from the shadows was a blue skinned magician, with a top hat and mask. The Amazing Mumbo gave a relieved smile. "I've been looking all over for you!"

Mother-Mae-Eye groaned. "Not now, Mumbo dear! Mother-Mae-Eye's busy!"

"Mother, are you still trying to find the secret ingredient of love?"

"I have to! The future of all motherhood is at stake!"

The teens were all flabbergasted. "Dude…" said Beast Boy.

"Wait a minute," said Mammoth. "Mother-Mae-Eye is Mumbo's mom?"

The magician gave a sheepish grin. "Yeeeah. You see, she's getting quite old and hasn't been very well in the head lately." He grabbed her arm. "Now come on, mother. Let's take you back to the magical nursing home."

"But the love! And the pie!"

"They'll be plenty of both when you get back," Mumbo said soothingly. And then in a flash, they were both gone.

"Ooookay," said Jinx. "Now we need to find two more members…well there's always that new Red X guy."

"How about my sister?" asked Mammoth.

The stunned silence became even more stunned. And silent.

"What?"
