Chapter Three: Attack of the Animals

Thanks to the guard's dog, Mad Mod was out. It was pretty easy actually, and only took 1 hour. The escape kind of went like this:

-cue mission impossible music-

9:00 AM- Mad Mod was getting impatient while the doggy was chewing, so he bribed her with more of his mush. "That's a good doggy. Just a bit more!" The jailers yelled as they watched for the dog to help them too, but it was too late for them because Mod and the dog had just run out.

9:27 AM- The alarms in the jail sounded, and it was a whole world of chaos and disruption for a few minutes. The guards stayed with the other jailers and told them to shut up while the police tried to figure out who set the alarm.

9:45 AM- Mad Mod ordered the dog to go to his owner's office and get his cane back. She declined at first, but he took some more mush out of his pocket and the dog was happy to help again. The guard who was always watching him took Mad Mod's cane when he first arrived in jail, and since he was trying to calm down the other jailers and wasn't present, that was the perfect time to snag the cane.

9:53 AM- When "Lassie" came back with two halves of a cane Mod felt he had every right to punish the dog, but then he remembered his cane was broken thanks to the little snot named Robin. So he ordered the dog to get some tape too from the guard's office and it really came in handy.

9:57 AM- They made it out of the front in time and that was proof that the Jump City jail wasn't very reliable when it came to guarding people. They were soon at the wired gates, and Mod used his cane to pry the gate open. Not the hard way, but the way that you just point the cane and it opens.

10:00AM- Once the old man was over the gate with the dog he turned around to see his guard in the distance, shaking his fist and he yelled a cry of triumph.

-end music-

But Moddie didn't care if the guard saw him escape. He was out, and he had to find his army of animals in the city.

Before long Mad Mod broke into pet shops, took strays and even attacked the Jump City zoo. And he did it all without his cane.

But soon he knew it was time to use the cane. Mad Mod waved it and all of the animals' eyes had a black and white swirl.

"Join me," he said. So they joined him since it wasn't like they had a choice anyway. The color of their fur, scales, or whatever covered them turned into the color of the British flag. It was as if the flag was stitched on top of them.

The old man looked down and saw one animal that looked like an unfamiliar species to him. It looked like a giant worm, and it gurgled. He pushed the guard's dog out of the way and picked up the silkworm.

"Now what do we have ere?" he said while examining it. The silkworm chewed off a part of Mod's sleeve. "I bet this pet ere can do some real damage."

Starfire still sat on the couch with the pillow on her hands while the others got ready to search for Silkie. Robin had gotten up just a little while before to go look through the tower again and Raven helped in other parts of the tower.

Beast Boy and Cyborg sat in the kitchen. Beast Boy had the plastic pipe in his mouth, but it was filled with tofu and he looked at the notes he had taken about Silkie's disappearance.

"So," he started, "The victim was last seen at the tower at 9:36 this morning."

"Actually, according to Starfire, it was 9:46," Cyborg corrected him.

"Well not according to the last time I saw him. He was sleeping in the third bedroom in the upstairs hallway at that moment.

My theory is that he wasn't kidnapped, but he left the tower, to find a better life."

"Are you kidding me, BB? Silkie loves this place."

"I know he does. But who wants to live off of 'zorka berries' for the rest of their life? I don't. He wanted a better life. End of story."

Cyborg shrugged and Beast Boy saw it as a way to continue.

" 'Sides, if he spent more time with me then maybe he would have stayed. I gave him all the tofu he could eat and he prefers Starfire. Pfft. What's up with that?"

Cyborg got ready to make a clever comment against that when the alarms rang. They ran out of the kitchen to see Robin run to the Titan mainframe.

Raven came from the elevator and floated in front of the couch. "What is it?"

"Mad Mod. He's taken a bunch of animals and hypnotized them. All the kinds of animals."

Starfire gasped. "He must have my Silkie!"

"So much for him wanting to have a better life," Cyborg mumbled so Beast Boy could hear. While ignoring him Beast Boy said, "But Silkie isn't an animal, he's a silkworm.

How'd he get hypnotized anyway?"

"He has an animal instinct though. We walk him and feed him like a dog."

"Actually, I think he's more like a human than a dog," Raven interjected, "but we'll get him back either way."

Robin pounded his fist on the keyboard of the Titan Mainframe. "We're going to clean up this mess. Raven, Cyborg, and Beast Boy, you're going to take care of the west side of the city. Starfire and I will go to the east side. We'll try to stop as many animals on the way and look for Mad Mod while you're at it. Titans, GO!"

"Ok, but I am SO still wearing my detective clothes," Beast Boy told Robin as he folded his arms and Cyborg grabbed him by the collar as he and Raven went out the front.

Robin jumped over the couch and he ran towards where the other Titans left, but he noticed that Starfire didn't budge, so he walked back to her. She stared into space and she looked worried. "What if the Mad Mod has already hurt Silkie? And done many of the mean things to him? He is only a little bumgorf."

"Come on Star, it's going to be ok. We'll get Silkie back, and Mod won't get away with it." He gave her a reassuring smile and she gave a small one in return. "Now let's go.

Starfire nodded and to Robin's surprise she took his hand and they at first walked, then flew outside.

The streets were filled with people who were screaming and running. It seemed that Mad Mod had ordered the animals to attack them and bring them to him so he could try and teach them a history lesson...again.

Starfire landed along with Robin and looked around. "There are so many species of animals out here," Starfire said while trying to stop one. It was hard to stop the animals without hurting them, and they needed to break the cane to stop them, which was currently with Mad Mod.

"I know. We can't hurt them, but I have an idea. When you fight against them, they follow you wherever they go. So as long as we keep attempting to fight they'll follow us and we can lead them back to where they belong."

"But how will we know where each creature goes?"

"We'll have to try our best. Hey...um...remember that animal book I showed you when we were at the library when you first came?"

Starfire nodded.

"And it said that usually the big animals like elephants and zebras go to the zoo, and animals that are small and you usually see in people's homes are like cats and dogs and birds."

Starfire nodded again. "I understand. I am guessing that I shall do the big animals and that you shall do the small animals?"

Robin agreed, although he thought he should do the bigger animals since he didn't want her to get hurt. 'There goes my overprotective self again,' he thought.

A little while later though, he regretted he did the smaller animals. People would come up to him and go, "That's my cat! No, never mind the one in your arm is my cat." Or, a child would say, "That's my puppy!" and their mother would scold them for lying. Also the small animals were always in his blind spot, and every once in awhile he could see Starfire floating somewhere above him, leading the other animals and it seemed that she had it easy. But he could see in her eyes that while she was doing her job at the same time she was looking for Silkie. He was surprised that he hadn't seen Silkie either, since he stuck out like a sore thumb. Soon he assumed the silkworm was on the other side of the city somewhere where the other Titans were.

They both did the strays and it wasn't hard for them to figure who the strays were. They were usually the animals left or you knew they didn't go to the zoo or they didn't have a leash.

Robin finished first, and soon Starfire did who flew down to Robin. The animals were still hypnotized, and they clawed at their cages. "As long as they're back where they belong, that's a good thing. Hopefully they won't break out. Now all we have to do is find and break that cane." He could have sworn he felt Starfire nudge him, and he added, "…and find Silkie."

"I'm hot, I'm tired, and can't these animals give it a rest! We've been fighting them all day!"

"It hasn't been all day Beast Boy. It's only been a few hours. Besides, it should be easy for you to fight other animals," Raven told him while shaking a monkey off her arm.

But after a few moments, she was starting to agree with Beast Boy. It did feel like all day. Cyborg soon said the same thing Beast Boy did, and they both pleaded to Raven that they go inside and rest in the nearest store for just a few minutes. Luckily, she said yes, and they ran into the clock store.

Every type of clock was found in that store. Modern clocks, antique clocks. Big clocks, small clocks. The manager at the front desk was reading a paper and folded it down to

look at the teens. He tilted the specs he wore and immediately wanted to know what was going on.

"Why are you here?"

"Sorry man, but we need to stay in here. There's kind of a bunch of animals attacking the city if you haven't notic-"

"I've noticed," he barked, "And I don't want you 'Teen Titans' leading them in here." He pointed to the window at a large number a animals banging on it with British flags printed on them. The workers in the store looked nervously at the windows.

"I would appreciate it if you children left, and leave my shop alone."

"But sir-" Beast Boy said.

"But nothing...and no smoking in my shop!"

"I'm not smoking, it has tofu in it. Hey wanna see?"

"OUT!"

The three of them cast one last look at the manager and headed for the door. But a loud sound sounded.

Every clock in the shop chimed for noon had hit, and the three titans stopped their way to the door and covered their ears at how loud it was. It finally ended, but after a few moments there was a new sound.

"Um...what's that noise?" Raven said while taking her hands off of her ears.

The manager looked at his watch and he looked up with his eyes hypnotized. Cyborg, Raven, and Beast Boy all knew what that meant. "Why", the clock shop manager said. It's noon! That means it's lunch!"

Beast Boy wrinkled his nose at the change in the manager's attitude. "Huh?"

The manager grinned a big one and hopped up to stand on his desk. He took a tray of food from under his desk (the Titans had no idea how it got there) and in a short while, he started to sing along with the tune Raven heard in the distance.

"Lunch, Lunch, Lunch, LUNCH!

Before supper, after brunch.

It gives you something good to munch

The bestest meal is always lunch!"

He jumped off the table and took a sandwich off of the tray. He held it up to Cyborg, not the offering kind of holding up, but the shoving down your throat kind. Cyborg ate the sandwich and swallowed. "What the-"

The manager turned to the other workers who were now hypnotized as well. The clocks in the shop were floating around them and they started to hum the tune. "What kinds of foods are served at lunch?"

"Chips!" one cried.

"Hot dogs!"

"Chicken strips!"

"Yule logs!"

"Dude! Mod hypnotized them too! I thought he was only doing the animals! And Yule logs? It isn't even Christmas!" Beast Boy cried.

"Now Mod wants to make his own musical? What next? Azarath Metrion Zinthos!" The clocks swarming around the workers turned black and soon exploded. The workers were back to normal and the manager blushed at his appearance. He shuffled his papers and sat back down at his desk.

"At least we didn't have to make all of them laugh," Raven muttered and she pointed to the front door. "Look whose coming."

"So, my duckies. You stopped my distraction. Can't these ol' chaps eat their lunch in peace? I mean, I don't want my canine friends have to sic you!"

"You sound better with an English accent, Mod. Don't try," Cyborg sneered.

Mad Mod shrugged and not only canines, but other animals came through the front door to attack them. Beast Boy turned into a cat and had a one-on-one fight with another one. Raven put a force field between the animals and her and Cyborg. She soon lifted it up so Cyborg could shoot. "Sorry guys," he said to the dogs who were clawing at the force field at first and shot. The dogs whined in pain.

"Oy! You're hurting my pups! Guess I'll just have to hurt you! I present the king of my army!"

He waved his cane and the three Titans heard a 'poof', but nothing happened. "Hey, what's going on ere?" He looked inside his cane, but Raven took it out of his hands with her powers and snapped it in half. She folded her arms and looked at him. "This just never gets old."

The animals turned back to normal and started barking or growling and ran throughout the shop. The store manager didn't know who to get angry at; Mad Mod or the Titans. He decided for it to be Mad Mod, and he glared at him.

"What have you done to my shop! This shop was passed down by my father, and my father's father, and now...it's ruined! You don't stand in chance outside of jail."

"Yeah Mod. You don't stand a chance against us." Beast Boy added. "What were you going to do to us anyway?"

Cyborg tied the villain up and slung him over his shoulder. Mad Mod who was sulking spoke. "I was gonna use that bloody pet silkworm against you yanks. But he's gone! He was my maggot against you!" He wailed. Raven looked at Beast Boy, who looked at Cyborg. "Silkie!" Cyborg told them. "You lost Silkie...again!"

"And he's a silkworm, not an animal!" Beast Boy cried.

Mad Mod ignored him. "He weren't lost in the first place my duckies. He was where he belonged, with me."

"And do you know where you belong?" Raven said in her monotone voice.

"The Jump City Jail," he sighed.

"That's right laddie," The Jump City Jail guard said to Mad Mod as he walked into the shop. He smirked. "Remember me?"

AN: Sorry if this chapter is a bit long…I just couldn't stop! That stupid lunch song…I was singing it on Saturday while I was eating lunch. Gotta love randomness. Anyway, please review!
