"What--? What happened there?" Raven asked, snapping out of her trance.
"Nothing," Zuko said. A little too quickly.
"Tell me. When I want to know what's happening, people tell me. You don't want to know why."
"Yeah, you wouldn't like her if she's angry," Beast Boy said.
"Argh! Fine. I suppose it wouldn''t matter anyway," Zuko sighed. "I never wantedpeople to get hurt.I always cared about people, but after I stood up in this conference, I had dishonored my fa--I mean, Lord Ozai. I had to fight him, and I ddidn't want to. He was the one who gave me my scar. I need to get the Avatar so I can restore my honor," Zuko explained. Before Raven could say anything, a scream sounded!
"What's wrong with her?" Sokka asked urgently as he tried to help his sister up. Katara had suddenly turned orange and red, her cells showed and she was weak.
"I don't know, but I bet Slade has something to do with it!" Aang said. He stood up, looking around. "I know you're watching, Slade! Leave Katara alone! I'll go with you!" Aang shouted. Katara started turning regular color, she was breathing hard.
"Very good, Avatar," Slade's voice said. He came out of the shadows, clapping an echoing clap. "Come here, my boy. I have plans for you," Slade said, his one evil eye narrowing. Katara and Sokka looked at Aang worriedly, but he didn't look back. He sadly walked up to Slade, Oppa not being there to save him once again. Slade thrust his arm down and smoke appeared. When it finally cleared out, he and Aang were gone.
"Katara, Sokka! Where's Aang?" Cyborg called. He and the four Titans East members had gotten to Katara and Sokka.
"Slade…Slade took him!" Katara cried, tears forming in her eyes.
"What!" Robin shouted. He and Beast Boy had gotten there next.
"Calm down, Robin," Raven said as she fazed through the wall with Zuko. "Tell us what happened."
"We were fighting Slade and Katara got hit with a gun thingy," Sokka explained.
"After a while, I started feeling something sharp dig inside of me, like a knife," Katara added.
"Yeah, I could see her cells. Anyway, Aang called out to Slade, saying that he'd go with him," Sokka finished.
"Slade played the same game with me when
I was forced to be his apprentice," Robin said.
"How did you come back?" Katara asked.
"Robin infected himself with the same probes that were inside us, and Slade didn't want to blow his own apprentice up," Beast Boy explained.
"I don't think Slade would care if Aang blew up, after all, he's not going to be his apprentice," Sokka reasoned.
"Sokka's right, the only way we'll be able to get Aang away from Slade is to get Zuko and
Aang to make really powerful attacks on each other again so we could get home, or at least out of here," Katara agreed.
Raven looked at Zuko, he looked away and said, "Slade will find out how to get me back with the Avatar, I don't need any of you."
Suddenly, Starfire came in; she still had electricity waves around her.
"Star, where have you—" Robin started, but he was hit by her starbolt. "Starfire, what are you doing!" Robin shouted as he dodged another attack.
"She's being controlled!" Beast Boy yelled as he remembered Terra.
"Don't worry, I'll—" Raven began to make a shield, but she started to have electricity surrounding her too. "Ugh, I think Jinx must've gotten me when I was unconscious!" she struggled. Raven started to float into the air next to Starfire.
"Very good, Raven," Slade said, he came onto the roof with Blackfire, Jinx and Aang. Aang was being controlled too. "My girls have done an excellent job, and now, you, Starfire and the Avatar are mine!"
"Why you double-crossing traitor!" Zuko shouted.
"I found better use for the Avatar, Zuko," Slade said.
"Jinx, Blackfire, if you please," Slade said. The girls nodded and motioned attacks using Starfire and Raven as puppets.
"Azarath, Metrion, Zinthos!" Blackfire shouted and Raven mimicked her. Waves of dark energy fired at the friends and Zuko.
The friends and Zuko ran and hid behind the water tower on the roof.
"Zuko, you and Aang need to cross each other with powerful attacks, it's the only way!" Katara urged.
"Listen to her, Prince Zuko," said a voice. Uncle Iro and Zuko's crew had gotten onto the roof.
"Fine, and remember, I'm not fighting with you, I'm fighting against Slade," Zuko said. Robin cut the bird-a-rang's rope and Zuko was free.
"We need to get Aang out and fighting!" Sokka said.
"If we attack Slade, then he'll have no choice but to either get hit, or have Aang counter our attacks," Bumblebee suggested.
"But what if he just lets Aang get hit?" Katara asked worriedly.
"If Aang can get free at the right moment, then he can use the attack. It's risky, but I don't think we have any other choice. This will have to be the final battle," Robin said.
"Then some of us will have to distract Starfire and Raven," Speedy said.
"Okay, Bumblebee, Speedy, Beast Boy and I will get Slade. When Aang is in the battle, Zuko will attack with a powerful move. Sokka, uh, all you firebenders, Mas and Menos, you guys distract the girls. Cyborg, you have the technology to get those probes out of Katara in your arm, right?" Robin asked.
"Yep, so I'll work on getting them out," Cyborg said. He and Katarasneaked to the far end of the roof and started working on that. Sokka and the Mexican boys defended them and attacked Starfire and Raven lightly. The others attacked Slade, it was working! Aang had to get into the battle.
"You think that I'd use a powerful move? I'm happy to disappoint you, Zuko, but it won't work," Slade said, his eye narrowing.
Meanwhile…Raven was trying to focus so she could take control of her own body. If Terra can do it then I can, she thought. Raven concentrated and…she felt something come off her arm! It was the control chip, she was free!
"Starfire, you can get out of Jinx's control! You have to fight it!" Raven called.
Raven is right, I can do it! Starfire thought as she concentrated. Her control chip flicked off her back! "Glorious! I am free of control!" Starfire cheered. She and Raven looked at Blackfire and Jinx and they smiled mysteriously.
"Oh, crud," Jinx and Blackfire said in unison.
Aang was struggling to get out of Slade's control. It was hard; he was concentrating on doing the same move he did on Zuko's ship. He did a turn…
"What are you doing!" Slade shouted. "Aang's going to blow up!" Mas and Menos said together is Spanish.
Aang pulled his arms into the air…
"Stop it! I command it! Your friend is going todie now!" Slade said as he pressed the button on his wrist. Aang worriedly glanced at Katara. She was smiling; the probe transplant was a success!
Aang smiled back and thrust his arms down, aiming his attack at Zuko, and at the same time, he felt the control chip fall off. Zuko was ready for this, he did the same move he had done on the ship, and the two attacks met. A portal opened, and Slade had shouted "No!" Raven pinned Slade down with all her power, and he was helpless. Aang smiled again and took out his Bison Whistle. He blew it and started to fall. Before Aang hit the ground, Oppa had appeared from who knows where with Mo Mo in his saddle. Oppa landed, and Aang opened his eyes to see his friends.
"You might want to come with us," Uncle Iro said as he, Zuko and the team of firebenders disappeared through the portal. Aang nodded, and he Katara, and Sokka took one last look at the Teen Titans. Aqualad had come up just in time to say good-bye.
"If you guys are ever in the future, look us up!" Beast Boy called after them. The friends waved good-bye until the portal disappeared.
"I miss them already!" Starfire cried.
"Don't worry Star, I—Titans, Slade!" Robin shouted. He had noticed that Slade was gone.
"Well, we'll catch him, Robin. Don't worry," Raven said reassuringly.
"Yeah, Slade doesn't stand a chance!" Beast Boy smiled.
