Ch.19: A Moment of Peace
The moon light began to dim and the sun began to come. The horizon was burning with colors. Logan was not asleep he was at the edges of the forest on top of the T-car with Raven asleep in his lap, the two of them had stayed close the whole night. Really they had been making out the entire night and almost got close to the edge of sex but Logan knew it was not the right time and moment for that. When he saw the sun rise he knew he needed to get back to the mansion. He slowly laid Raven in the back seat and drove back deep into the forest towards the well hidden mansion. He parked the T-car next to the R-cycle and got Raven out and carried her into her bedroom were he covered her up and went to his room and fell asleep for a couple hours. He was awoken by the sound of knocking.
"Wake up grass stain! We gotta get ready for the HIVE!" yelled Victor from behind his door.
Logan mumbled something under his breath and got up. He looked at the various scars on his chest, back, and arms. He never thought he would see so many from just 4 people. Logan put on a white sleeveless muscle shirt and black karate pants. He then put on some black and white K-Swiss he had been given to sometime ago. He walked out of his room and spiked up his hair in the bathroom. Then he entered the kitchen were most of the Titans were making there meals but Starfire and Richard in the dinning room already eating. Logan grabbed an apple and a glass of soy milk and sat down across from the couple.
"So when are they going to show up?" asked Logan as he bit into his apple.
Richard put down his fork and swallowed the remaining food in his mouth.
"They said…that they would be here around noon so we should try and get ready by then."
"Yes and it is already 10:30, we have less than 2 hours till our new friends arrive."
Victor dropped the knife in his hand.
"There not our friends Star." he said softly.
"Come on V, you still don't like them." Sarah said as she kissed him on the cheek.
Victor sighed and remembered the kiss he shared with Jinx.
"I do like them…I just don't trust them completely yet."
Sarah sighed and sat down and began to eat her breakfast. Raven had joined next to Logan and laid her head on his shoulder.
"So what do you think is going to happen when we actually do it?" asked Sarah.
The Titans did not say anything; they didn't want to think about it. Right now they wanted to act like family again.
"I don't know but I can tell you this, when we finish Price off we are going to rebuild the Tower and make it better than normal. Then we could be like family again." smiled Logan.
"I don't know BB…what if we don't win?" Victor sighed.
"Don't say that…we are going to win. We are the Teen Titans and I think that is a great idea. When we weren't together, don't you remember how horrible it felt, how lonely we all felt even if we did have someone else?" Raven said with a calm look on her face.
The other Titans nodded, it was sad and lonely with out everyone else with them. Sure most of them had a lover with them but it was nothing to the complete set and the fun times that would come with them.
"Your right Raven…we are happier together than before." Nightwing smiled.
The other Titans thought about this fact and finally understood it. No matter how much you change in your life real friends and family will always love you no matter what you become. With that in there minds there futures were set. If they did defeat Price then they would rebuild Titans Tower and begin a new life there; a happier, more mature life of peace and prosperity.
Price Corp.
Price was sitting not in his office but in a dark holding area. It was like a holding base with a large enough area for a very loud echo. He was sitting in a large chair wearing a blood red cloak over his body and all that could be seen was his ale skin of his mouth and his eyes; his now yellow cat like eyes. Is mouth was crisp and dry, with what looked like a blade scar running from his chin and up into the darkness of his cloak. He snapped his finger and the large area lit up like a Christmas tree. The room was pure silver; the shiny substance covered the floor, walls and ceilings. There were designs along side the walls but that wasn't the reason why the room was picked. It was picked because inside of it was like the inside of a mechanics factory there were large garaged that held tanks, cars, guns, missiles , and every other war weapon or accessory that could be found. But the building itself was filled up with thousands of warriors. Large brigades stood shoulder to shoulder. The warriors wore black ops cloths with a 3 eyed goggle. They held M16's in there arms and wore large amounts of body armor. On there chest's were the Price Passion signs, that were bright red so it shown in the night. The large army stretched for half a mile with shoulder to shoulder soldiers. Price got to his feet; he looked like age was getting the best of him but he still rose his hand and all the warriors put there's in a solute with a loud yell.
"Sir!"
"Good afternoon men…the day is approaching."
The soldiers yelled again but no words were said.
"It is time we clean the streets of Jump City from the filth they call pedestrians. And as soon as we complete that job we will move to bigger and better places. Gotham, New York, Los Angeles, Washington, Asia, Russia, South America; in other words my men we will take over the world and become all powerful!"
The soldiers stomped there feet and yelled again. This time Price did not talk he lifted his hand and it showed a trigger, he pressed it and a flag behind him fell to the ground. It was a large crimson red color showing the Price Passion sign. Price pointed his hand towards it and spoke.
"Remember this! No matter what you do, no matter how you do it, I plan on seeing every last filthy 'pedestrian' dead! If you are captured and soon to break you will exterminate plan bullet; in other words I am planning on your sacrifice of your body and send your mind into the heavenly place up above than burn in the hells of this world and those filthy lower livers hell!"
The soldiers saluted again with another yell of;
"Sir!"
Price lowered his hand and caught his breathe, he was getting to old to keep this up and he knew it. But with one final movement he raised his hands up above his head and tilted his neck back and with a bright flash a metal box started to fall from the ceiling, with no strings. The box landed at his feet and he opened it up and pulled out 2 black silver pistols with a sniper scope and double barrels. He put them out into the crowd and smiled under his cloak.
"These my men are your new weapons! I call them the Passion Power Packers, or the triple P blasters. These guns have been modified to fit different bullets that are stored on the side of the gun. With a push of the screen on its aiming point you can switch between bullets. And all of this could be affordable at a low, low price of serving your Master Price."
The army gave a loud chuckle at the corny joke knowing if they didn't laugh he or she would be eliminated quickly.
"When the day arrives you will all be equipped with these weapons and start your brigade. But you will only march if I give the signal by pressing a small button in my possession that will send a recorded message towards all of you telling your jobs. When the message ends you will march out and begin your cleansing. Is that understood?"
The army cried out yes and Price smiled.
"Good…now back to your duties, all of you! And remember to get a good night sleep…muhahahahaha!"
With that Price walked off the stage and the soldiers were left to look at the large flag with there symbol on it. Inside they did not feel good about the plan but they did not argue, they marched off in different directions towards different bases. As they went back to life Price began his own walk back towards his office. He exited the large building that was located just a mile south of his business. He entered a black metallic limo and sat in the back with only a soft tone of music ringing in his skull. Inside the limo he saw Riku sitting on a large leather seat to the right of him. To his sides were young girls, skimpily dressed and begging to get into his pants. One young girl had one of her breasts popping out and resting on Riku's arm.
"How did the conference go father?" asked Riku as he messaged the young girls' breast and let her kiss his cheek and let a little moan out.
"Nicely my son, the army is getting ready and there are nearly complete, it won't be long before you and I sit at the top."
Riku smiled and moved himself and the 'ladies' towards a farter area of the limo, he pressed a button and a black glass began to move up over them.
"What are you doing?" asked Price with a smile on his cheek.
"I am not a little boy father, and these girls need the company."
"Well clean up when your don will ya."
Riku chuckled and the limo was cut off from the upper area. Price listened for a while and he heard a moan of ecstasy from a young woman and the car began to move and shake.
"Ha, ha, ha, that's my boy."
Price sat back in his seat and pressed a red button on the arm rest.
"Driver…, back to the corporation."
"Yes Mr. Price we will be there in little less than 10 minutes."
Price let go of the button and went back to hearing the moans and cries from the young girls and the grunts of joy from his own son. He looked out into the window and saw a rain drop hit it. Then the cold water started to fall faster onto him and the car. He smiled and felt the smooth roll of the wheels beneath him. And then he was on his way back to his home, were he would begin his countdown to dooms day. It was only a moment of peace for this world, and like every minute it will surly end.
