AN: This story was inspired by several random phone conversations with Pickles12 in which we came up with most of this story. Any errors are my entire fault since I have never seen Teen Titans in my entire life, any accuracy whatever is completely due to Pickles.

I don't own anything in anyway except myself and Pickles, being but a humble dreamer.

Pickles: You don't own me, but I own this binder waves binder full of TT doodles excitedly

Do not sue me, do not sue me.

The door of the Mac's convenience store swung open and somebody walked inside, looking around for a familiar face.

"YOU CAME!" cried Pickles as she jumped up from her chair in excitement. Kelida looked over to see her super excited friend practically bouncing up and down and went over to sit at the table.

Although Pickles was younger than Kelida, they were still good friends. They were quite a contrast, Kelida wearing her plain red t-shirt and jeans while Pickles had a tye-dye shirt and lime green pants. Pickles' short, layered blond hair curled around her face but Kelida's brown hair was pulled back into a ponytail that went partway down her back. The only physical characteristic these girls had in common were their blue eyes.

Sitting down in the chair across from Pickles, Kelida smiled. "It's nice to see you too since I haven't seen you since the end of school." Pickles leaned over to see the book in Kelida's hand.

"'Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince', haven't you read that already? It's been out for a few weeks."

"I just like to read certain parts over… and over… and over." Kelida said, holding the book to her chest. Pickles giggled, covering her mouth with her hand, then reached over and picked up the paper on the table to read the comics. Suddenly she paused as she turned the page.

"OH MY GOODNESS!" She exclaimed, getting looks from the other customers inside of Mac's. She was absolutely surprised, something odd for Pickles, and Kelida looked up at her, wondering what was wrong. "Look at this!" cried Pickles, shoving a page of the newspaper into Kelida's face.

"Look at the picture. Don't you recognize him!" Pickles whispered urgently. "It's SLADE!"

"You mean Slade from that show you watch, Teen…uhhh… Titans?" Kelida asked, bewildered.

"Yes. Read the article." Pickles said, shaking Kelida by the shoulders. Shrugging her shoulders Kelida started to read it.

A mysterious stranger appeared, met high up authorities…

"This guy appeared out of nowhere and he's formed conspiracy to 'build a machine that would warp the reality of fictional books and then later on control people through what they read'! This is a tabloid, Pickles!" Kelida exclaimed in surprise.

Pulling out a Teen Titans poster, Pickles held it up next to the photo. "This is Slade, that is the mysterious man. Slade, mysterious man. THEY LOOK IDENTICAL! Besides the fact that one is a cartoon character." Pickles replied but Kelida remained unconvinced. Pulling out her Harry Potter book again to read something she gasped.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I WILL KILL THIS SLADE WITH MY OWN BARE HANDS!" she yelled as she jumped onto the table, her face distorted with rage. Smiling at the other shocked customers, Pickles pulled Kelida off the table and walked her outside the store. Pickles looked at Kelida, wondering what was wrong, when suddenly Kelida thrust the book in her face.

"Hermione. Kissing… DRACO MALFOY!" Kelida said, struggling to breath. "SLADE WILL BE KILLED!" Patting Kelida on the back, Pickles thought very hard and found a solution, the ONLY solution, to stop Slade and his plot to take over the world.

"Come on, there's only one group of people that can help. We'll have to go to where they found Slade appear to get there." Pickles told Kelida as she dragged her down the street.

"You're creeping me out with that smile on your face…" Kelida said, feeling a prickle of apprehension.

"This is the only way to stop Slade and restore all of the books." Pickles replied. Kelida stood up and with a grim look on her face said…

"Let's go."
