"To have no heroes is to have no aspiration, to live on the momentum of the past, to be thrown back upon routine, sensuality, and the narrow self"

-Charles Horton Cooley

III: And Then There Was Six

2 weeks later…

"Titans go!"

Six teenagers charged at what was a giant heart.

"Watch Cardiac's tentacles" yelled Robin extending his bo staff.

Cardiac began to whip its tentacles at the titans but they rolled out of the way. Robin jumped and whipped his staff forward pounding into Cardiac. The force pushed the giant heart back. Cardiac instantly rose up and continued attacking. Beast Boy changed into a rhino and tried to ram into Cardiac but the giant heart knocked him away effortlessly with its tentacle.

"Azarath Metrion Zinthos" yelled Raven. Black waves began to consume the heart as Raven attempted to spilt it apart. But Cardiac was ready and shot a smaller tentacle out of one of its main ones straight at her. It wrapped around her hands tightly stopping the magic from occurring. Raven attempted to break out of it but the tentacle electrocuted her and she fell towards the ground. Cyborg cut under her and made a quick catch while aiming his sonic cannon at it. But again the heart was one step ahead and shot another tentacle wrapping itself around the cannon then electrocuting Cyborg forcing his sonic cannon to shut down. Cyborg looked at his cannon, then looked up as hit got hit straight on by Cardiac's tentacle. He fell back into Raven as they crashed onto the pavement.

"Is it just me or are all our enemies getting smarter" shot Beast Boy observing Cyborg's distress.

"Doesn't matter, we take him down now" yelled Robin fighting of Cardiacs tentacles.

He blocked every incoming tentacle with his staff. Left, Right, Left, Left, Right, Middle. Cardiac frustrated that he could hit the boy wonder shot a good dozen of his small tentacles at Robin. Robins' eyes widened but all of the tentacles were blown away to the ground getting destroyed by the force of the hit. Robin looked over to see Siege running straight at Cardiac. It raised one of its main tentacles as Siege got close. Suddenly he felt himself being sucked into it. He was about to be sucked whole when Starfire flew in quickly and pulled Siege out of the way.

Siege gained a sign of relief, then realized something. "Wait a min- Starfire take me back around and throw me straight towards him."

Raven finally broke free as well as Cyborg. Robin, Raven, Cyborg and Beast Boy who was now a bull all charged in at Cardiac. The heart began to fire at will, shooting dozens of tentacles at them. Robin blocked them with his staff. Raven flipped over one and then began to shoot back at the others. Cyborg finally got his cannon working again and shot a sonic blast dissipating all of the tentacles. Beast Boy changed into a cheetah and speed by them. All the titans got close and launched a simultaneous offensive. Cardiac then unexpectedly began to spin like a top. The titans all mid-attack got hit by the force of the main tentacles whipping around in a circle. Beast Boy slammed into a car, Raven and Robin into a wall, and Cyborg way up in the air who landed hard. Cardiac stopped spinning and moved in to suck the titans inside of him. He stopped in front of Beast Boy and raised a tentacle in the air. Beast Boy looked up as the tentacle struck but suddenly before it could touch him Beast Boy was blow out of the way.

"Hey Cardiac" yelled Siege. Starfire launched him straight in Cardiacs direction. Just as expected it shot more of the smaller tentacles at him. "That attack is getting old" Siege smiled as dozens of starbolts flew in front of him destroying them. Cardiac then raised one of its main tentacles as pointed it straight at Siege. Little did it know that Siege wanted it to do that. Siege shot straight into it and reappeared inside the actual heart of Cardiac.

"No" yelled Beast Boy.

"Not good" said Cyborg getting up.

But Siege had it under control. He closed his eyes and began to power up. Cardiac began to realized what was going on started to move out of control. It immediately began to spin again as Siege pushed both hands apart. Cardiac began to spin faster in an effort to knock him off balance and regain control. Starfire gasped as the heart began to spilt right down the center. Siege then used all his force as Cardiac began to rip apart. However Cardiac wasn't going without a fight, it began to try and force itself together. Starfire seeing this flew straight into Cardiacs tentacle. To everyone's surprise she reappeared in front of Siege and put her hands on his.

"Oh shi-" yelled Robin not able to finish as he looked on.

Green blasts began to pierce through Cardiac. Then instantly Cardiac blew apart as a green tornado blew pieces of the heart everywhere. The tornado dissipated as Starfire and Siege landed on the ground. They titans ran towards them.

"That's was risky Siege, nice job both of you" said Robin.

"You guys combined your powers" said Beast Boy a little late.

"Yes, my energy and his tornados combined" said Starfire also wondering how that happened.

"Doesn't matter how as long as we got the job done" said Cyborg. "Well then easy does it."

"Damn my suit ripped" said Siege acknowledging the small tear on the chest.

"The price of being on the frontlines" laughed Cyborg.

"Said like someone who wears no clothes" said Siege in a low voice.

T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T

Robin, Beast Boy and Cyborg all fumbled with their controllers trying to beat Siege's score. Both Robin and Cyborg had managed to beat Siege's score and Beast Boy managed to tie it. But Siege wanting to stay on top played all day and eventually destroyed Cyborg and Robins score. Someone new was number one each day.

Siege walked into the hallway. He had remembered that Starfire had taken the sowing kit to make some oven gloves. Though the gloves turned out pretty messed up they did work for Beast Boy's new stank ball.

Today actually marked the longest Siege had ever been in one place since he began his travels long ago. So far everything had been fun. Cardiac was only the third crime he had faced, the first two had been just regular old fashioned robbers.

Mostly Siege got up and prepared for meditation with Raven in the mourning which had actually become something relaxing for Siege. After that he did whatever usually practiced himself on the roof. Afterwards he trained again with Raven on control and accuracy as well as power and speed. That was long and tedious at times but since the first day Siege's powers had grown considerably. He was now able to continuously use his powers for a long while without feeling tired. His winds were much faster and stronger as well. He had learned a few new tricks that nobody had seen yet, apparently the move he did with Starfire one of them. Usually the Titans went out at lunch. In the afternoon everyone went to the training room. There Siege practiced using his powers to push things and control them in the air more effectively. Also he sparred with Robin on a regular basis testing his skills and showing Robin his capoeira style and learning new moves himself. Then after that he did anything from playing games to upgrading his room. It had been like that for two weeks.

Siege had given up on the nickname Twister as well. At the time only Beast Boy and Cyborg called him that anyway. And usually when they did Siege didn't answer them because he was so used to his regular name. Eventually it got old and they left it alone.

His new suit was something of pure genius. Designed by himself and made by him and Cyborg his suit was custom made just for him. He wore tights that were a one piece like Beast Boy's only he also had on a jacket with no sleeves over it that he wore zipped down. He also had on the silver belt Robin had given him. The tights were all blue with a small silver insignia representing a tornado on his left side of his chest. The jacket, his boots, and his gloves were all silver. The jacket had two pockets one which had his communicator in it. The other had silver sunglasses just for looks. But now his suit was ripped and he needed to sow it back up.

He appeared in front of Starfire's room. He knocked twice waited then knocked again. When no one answered he walked in.

"Starfire, are you in here?" Siege yelled out. There was no answer. Siege looked around her room. It was all pink, everywhere with a big almost heart shaped bed in the middle. He walked over to the corner where he almost tripped. He looked down to see Silkie moving about. He smiled and looked over at the desk where he spotted the sowing machine. He grabbed it then examined it to see if it had all its working parts when he heard his name.

"Siege?"

Siege turned around to see Starfire walk out of her bathroom. She stood in front of him dripping wet wearing nothing but a towel that barley covered her. Siege fell his mouth drop but refused to stop it. He knew Starfire was beautiful, but now seeing her like this she was damn se-

"Siege what are you doing in my room?" Starfire asked interrupting Siege's thoughts.

"Oh um, my, no, umm, yeah my suit…my suit…it ripped remember" said Siege fumbling with his words. It was hard to look at her face when the rest of her body was right there but Siege managed, until he realized it didn't help. Her hair was sparkling and dripping wet and she didn't seem to be the least bit angry. "I needed the…the…the…"

"Machine that sows" said Starfire finding the words for him.

"Yeah, this thing" said Siege holding up the sow. "So… I'm… going… to… go… fix… my… suit" mumbled Siege very slowly.

"Yes" said Starfire looking a little confused.

It was here when Siege realized Starfire really didn't have a clue sometimes like Beast Boy had told him. 'Any girl knows how they would handle this situation yet she didn't yell or scream or anything. Or maybe she is comfortable enough with her body that she doesn't care' Siege thought to himself. "Well then, I'll see ya" said Siege as he began to walk out. He then realized Starfire was plainly in the way.

'Oh damn' Siege thought.

There was no way in hell that he was about to say excuse me, that would just sound stupid so instead he just walked towards Starfire. She didn't move or anything. Siege inched by her their bodies making fiscal contact as he passed. Managing to get around, Siege turned to give Starfire one last quick stare down and nodded then left the door closing behind him. Starfire giggled.

In the hallway Siege leaned up against the wall and started to breathe again as he didn't realize he had been holding it the whole time. 'Damn that girl is beautiful' Siege thought. He chuckled a little bit thinking back to what just happened then headed back to his room to fix his suit.

Well chapter 3 ends. I must say that came out of nowhere. Sorry it was a little short. My one tip to the readers is don't try to foreshadow anything because this story is going to twist and turn with the action of who's fighting who and romance of who's loving who just to let you know now. Next chapter will be up in a day. New fights scenes and suspense should make their way in now that my pace chapters are done. For now thanks for reading. FS out.
