(HA HA HA HA HA. I am actually Remotely Mellow, I have commandeered my friends computer in order to correct his HORRIBLE GRAMMER. But just for tonight. Seeing as he is tired and sick.) Anyways I do not own the Teen Titans. And nergallordofwar doesn't own anything either he's borrowing his cats thoughts at the moment. But if he did he would touch himself every night at the thought.

Chapter 4: The Withering

Tomb awoke feeling refreshed at three in the morning after going to sleep at twelve. Getting his full three hours of sleep in. He woke up waking his brother up as well.

"Common bro lets go for a jog." Tomb said stretching. Tapestry awoke with a stretch.

"How long was I out." Tapestry said yawning.

"I'd say a good 4 hours." Tomb said, "Seeing as you went to sleep an hour before I did."

"Man I overslept again!" Tapestry said as he got up. Tomb making two bowls of ramen that he took from the emo kid last night.

"Man, it's good normal food for once." Tapestry said as he took a big bite of his ramen.

"What do you mean normal? This stuff is terrible." The meats stale and salty." he then heard a rat scurry across the room, but Tapestry stopped him.

"Eat the Ramen and not the rats. Were trying to be normal here." Tapestry said as Tomb put down his knife.

Finishing his ramen Tomb got up and said "Common bro time for a jog."

"Do we have to jog?" Tapestry whining.

"It's either jogging or sparring your choice." As soon as Tomb finished saying this, Tapestry was already at the door.

"Alright I'm ready. Let's go." Tapestry not really feeling like sparing.

"Oh you don't want to spar? I'm hurt." Tomb said sarcastically.

"You always win." Tapestry said in a firm tone.

"Just because your uncoordinated and have no balance, doesn't mean I can't turn you into a decent fighter with some sparing sessions." Tomb said.

They had been jogging in the grey light. Just then an opened-top mech came through the side of a building. Tomb quickly said. "Man this guys just straight up destroying stuff." Tomb then quickly snapped his fingers as his armor appeared.

"Don't kill him." Tapestry shouted quickly dawning his own armor.

"I won't, but that looks like some pretty thick steel." He looked at his rapier putting it away. He then lowered his head mumbling something for a second or two, "Durandel too my hand!" just then a short sword something the kind a Roman legionnaire would wield appeared in his hand in a bright flash of white light. It was Durandel, the sword of Sir Roland, and before that Hector of Troy.

Johnny Rancid seeing the bright light turned his attention to the two brothers. "You must be the two losers I heard about on the news." Producing a rocket launcher out of one of the hands of the mech. "But it looks like you career's gonna be short lived." He then shot the rocket at the two. Tapestry quickly tugged a strand of the tapestry redirecting the rocket to the street harmlessly. Tomb then quickly moved in nearly taking the leg off of the mech in one swipe. Johnny quickly turned the mech around grabbing Tomb. He then threw Tomb, who weighed only about 90 pounds, a good quarter mile away.

And the only thing that crossed Tombs mind was "Oh shit, I am so boned, and so is Tapestry." He then proceeded to do the most astounding faceplant in human history. His helmet digging a hundred foot furrow into the ground slowing him to a stop. He felt most of his magic and strength leave his body immediately. As the only drawback to there powers was they couldn't really be that far away from each other in order to use there powers.

Johnny Rancid then turned to Tapestry as Tapestry could only think of 'Oh shit I am boned' losing all ability to see and manipulate the Tapestry. Just then he heard the two words that made his day.

"Titans Go!" As the Teen Titans arrived on the scene. And as soon as Robin said that Kaiser blasted the already damaged leg off of the mech with an energy ball blowing it apart. Tapestry then carefully walking away knowing he was completely vulnerable.

Mumbling to himself "The only thing I hate about my powers. The drawbacks, namely this damn withering we get every time were more than freaking 30 feet away from each other." He then started to walk towards where his brother had been thrown. Growing tired as he moved. They met about half way.

Tomb then said "I think that's enough exercise for the day. Let's go home."

Well If you have any time please review my friends fan-fic. He really needs some criticism. (Especially with his spelling and grammer.)
