Continueing...

As the warmth from the beams of the now fully risen,large xanthic sun came spilling in in one stream of nearly blinding light into the top of the small hay loft of the rusted Red Barn and pooled most of it's surface,a young teenage boy started to arouse from another restless and agonizing night of nearly sleepless and tormenting slumber,

The only time I ever got enough sleep was when I was having a good time and still making the person I was trying to out run miserable as humanly possible,He thought to himself satirically,as he sat upright and stared listlessly at the orb of light which glowed on him every Morning,Ever since Slade and I lost contact,I've heard little from my good friend Robin or any of the other Titans for that matter.

Murmuring some clearly unsuitable words under his breath,the teenager who had also come to know himself as Rowan Grayson,gradually got to his feet and started removing random pieces of straw that were caught in his torn white T-shirt and baggy,ripped jeans,as he proceeded down thelong and narrow ladder to the bottom floor of his current residence.He was about to head out for a casual run of the city to make minor hits that he knew the Teen Titans most likely wouldn't respond to,when the rustling from just off to the side of the front enterance of the Barn made he freeze in his tracks and keep him on guard,even if he couldn't do much.

"I might not have a fully-equppied aresnal of the goodies I was able to pull out last time,"Rowan announced out imminently,still remembering some of the basic skills he had learned almost two years ago from the mysterious man who had taken him in when he had ran out on his eleventh Foster homeand had offered him a home with no strings attached and nearly ample amount of freedom as along as he trained every Afternoon in different forms of Martial Arts he still never fully understood,"But I knew the day you'd finally track me down would come,"he grinned with a toothy jeer,as he prepared to come face-to-face with the other boy who had formerly been his new alter ego,whenthe sound of someone dropping something and taking off made him arch a brow,"Alright...?"

Cracking his knuckles,he moved forward with no hesistation in sight and hopping up to one of the Barn windows,made a perfect landoutside in his attempt to have the upperhand at a sneak attack.However,nothing but the lush green surroundings and an old soy bean nearly one-hundredyards away meet his determined eyes.Kicking at a mound of dirt,he starting walking forward to re-enter the Barn to finish up getting ready,when the toe of his dusty,brown tenna shoe accidently bumped onto a medium-sized box laying down just between the doorway and the window.

A very humerous gesture,Rowan thought to himself coolly,as he casually bent down and plucked the tightly-tapped cardboard package off from the still dew-covered lawn and took it in with him.Absentminedly raking his finger's through his messy,dark brown hair,he grabbed hold of the side of the box and ripping the top of completely,leaped from the bail of hay he had been sitting on and hid behind it while dropping the box.When no loud explosion of any kind erupted,he took a moment to wip off the trickling pesperation from his brow,as he got to his feet and peered down curiously into the box.Wondering what sort of contents that it might hold.

There lay a sort of lazer-looking gun with a long and wide barrel,along with a small dial-type device on the back of it and made completely of chrome.Rowan was tempted to snatch it up on impluse,but not before his deep porraceous eyes fell from the intensively interesting-looking weapon and onto a note that lay atop it that seemed to jump out at him.Taking a deep breath,he brought his hand down just enough to pinch one of it's corners and then standing up again,held in up to the light that was pouring into one of the Barn's few windows and read to himself carefully,

Rowan aka. Red X,

It's been a while since we've made contact.I have since been what one would call 'busy' with certain matters.But that aside,it's been almost six months since our friends the Titans have had a taste of what I've taught you the last two years,yes,it really has been that long,hasn't it?

I'm notifying you again because I feel that I haven't been doing 'my' part to keep them busy lately.You know,I've always noticed this but you and Robin seem strangely familiar.More in looks then in attuitude.I think you've noticed that too,so,what if I told you Iknew something you may find shocking.And if you accepted it,would you be willing to do something very much so undercover.Something,that would turn the Titans and espeically Robin's world upside down?

If you're interest is even the slightest bit piqued,you know where to go and from there on out,I will tell you where you would need to go to make this little 'idea' of mine come into reality,

Slade.

Bringing his fingers to his temples,Rowan began to contemplate on the matter at hand,the matter he knew would eventually rise sooner or later.But should he go back to the mentor who had seemingly disappeared almost half a year ago on him or should he stay where he was at?However,the deep desire to get even with Robin burned a hole in his ever entangled long list of priorites and yet unaccomplished tasks.So turning to glance over his shoulder and up at the old trunk where his Red X suit had been hanging for all this time,he began to let a slight grin crease the corners of his mouth as he said to himself under his breath darkly,

"What do I have to loose."

An hour later at the Jump City's Show-All Auditorium...

Coming to a screeching hault directly outside the city's main publically displaying building,Robin wasted no time taking off his helmet and waiting the few extra seconds as the other Titans arrived onto the sceene in no time at all.Once the five of them had assembled together into a small but confident cluster,they began to proceed boldly but catiously towards the fortunately emptied but still very much hazardous large metal structure,

"Alright Titans remember,we don't know whether or not the bomb is real or fake,"Robin admonished them all firmly,as they neared the revolving glass doors that would lead them into uncertain fate,"So just like we pre-planned,Cyborg takes the Electronic part of the store,Raven the Arts section,Starfire the Entertainment and Beast Boy the lower and last section of the store,I'll be up in the upper part of the store in the Hunting section..."he finished telling them as they started to face the direction they would have to part ways in,once they all nodded in stimulant understanding and agreement in their task,Robin nodded himself but as they all turned completely and dashed off,he couldn't help but call out over his shoulder,"And becareful,I have a real unsure feeling about this."

Deliberately,Robin temporarily put his pact to be tentative aside and began quickly ascending up the long and narrow flights of stairs to the top of where he most likely knew the perpetrator would be.Although he felt bad for backing out on some of their original plan,Robin felt that whoever may try to attack on this particular day,even if they didn't appear to at first,would be singling him out.He didn't know why or even how he felt the way he did,but something inside of him urged him to trust his insticnt.Even if it might cost him something he rather not loose,because the very idea of having that one thing he had had stoled,then having stolen back himself,stolen from him again.But all that was only a small possiblity...

"Well,well,"Came the muffled,dry voice of the one person he wasn't wanting to hear at the moment,the voice chuckled with amusement as Robin surveyed the place swiftly,"You can hear me but it's a shame you can't see the very thing you created,"he paused for a moment and then his next words rolled out in a much more enthralling voice,"Although we've already been though this whole little 'another person's trash is another's treasure' snenario.I only thought it would be right to have a bit of a sequeal to our little tale of good and bad buys,wouldn't you say?"

"That voice..."Robin breathed under his breath roughly,his eyes finally turning skyward to the sound of the person who had spoken,"You,"he snarled agressively,just the mere sight of what and who he had thought was in the past now staring him straight in the eye from above,finally he restrained enough calm to shoot back up evenly,"Thought you had had enough after the last time I took back the one thing that could help power that old thing of mine.Now,I'd say either you have a really well thought out plan on how to defeat me or you've just went and gone insane."

But Red X merely shrugged it off in a cool gesture,as he leaned his back againist one of the many connection of pipes than ran and wrapped in different patterns through out the entire building ceilings,"I had little doubt you would be curious about my sudden re-entry,"he told him almost nonchalantly,pressing a small red button on his utility belt and as two black mechanical wings jetted out from a pack he had inserted ontohisback,leaped backwards and gently drifted back down to where he landed nearly six feet from Robin,"But I'm afraid I'm not here to chat."

That's when a sudden thought crossed Robin's mind hard,"Hold on a second!The only other person who could have suppiled you witha belt i-"

Abruptly cut short from the unexpected flash of instant hypnotizing chemicals from the large and roundly barrled rifle,which Rowan had been told earlier would made any person go under total hypnosis for as long as the host wished them too,Robin's whole face went blank and his mind went into a sort of daze.Spinning the top ofhypno-blaster up to his mouth and blowing away the gray gunsmoke starting to curl into the air,he watched as the teen collasped onto the bare floor in a sprawled postion.

"I'm Robin,"He started to say the words that were lodged within his mind almost like he himself had been brainwashed,as he bent over and taking the fallen Titan under the arms,dragged his limp body down further down into the Hunting section,"And you're Red X and the two of us are sworn enemies.And as for the Titans,you never had a single feeling except for utter bitterness and dislike for them,as well as the ones closest to you."

To Be Continued...

Whatever Red X has planned,no good can come of it.Stay tuned!
