Hayley and Gizmo had finally arrived at Hive Academy, Hayley was absolutely exhausted. She'd flown around all night while carrying Gizmo.
"There!" Gizmo pointed out, to his dorm home, and Hayley landed.
"Thanks." Gizmo said simply. "You're welcome, and you can call us, whenever you need us." Hayley said, handing the child her communicator.
"Thanks Hayley." Gizmo said, as Hayley gave him a hug, and then flew off.
Gizmo waved once, and then opened the door to his dorm home. There was a deathly silent flow upon the room, no one was awake yet, a it was Saturday, and their only opportunity to actually sleep in without getting into trouble by the teachers.
Gizmo slowly crept up the stairs, and creaked open Jinx's door, the witch was in a restless sleep, and tossing and turning about her bed. As if in the midst of a terrible dream. She was, but that wasn't it, she was still in a fit of worry over Gizmo.
Whom climbed up onto her bed, and shook her shoulders.
"Jinxie! Jinxie!" Gizmo cried out in louder whispers as Jinx finally awoke with a deep yawn. Jinx's vision was cloudy, but when it had finally returned to her, her pink catlike eyes went extremely wide.
"GIZMO!" Jinx cried out as she scooped him up and pulled him over to her lap. Hugging Gizmo and kissing him, crying.
"Gizzy? Is it really you? I can't believe it! I was so worried about you!" Jinx exclaimed, tears rushing down her pale face like there was no tomorrow.
Suddenly, Steffauri and Mimi burst through the door. "Jinx! Are you al- Gizmo!" The two cried out in miraculous excitement.
Later that morning, the whole team now reunited with it's youngest member, was now sitting down at the able, eating breakfast, and listening to Gizmo talk about his adventures with Hayley.
"And then, that Dao Ma lady, turned out to really be the hooded dude that tried to kill me. And then we finally escaped and Hayley brought me back here before you guys woke up." Gizmo finished.
"Wow, that's cool." See-More complemented, through a mouthful of pancake.
"Yeah, pretty much everyone in school was worried about you, since they'd all heard about the hooded guy." Mammoth added.
"Wow, so, you mean like, the whole school found out about that guy that's been stalking us?" Gizmo asked in a slightly proud and yet, concerned voice.
"Um, Giz, can I talk to you for a sec?" Steffauri asked, with a look of fear slowly spreading across her tan face. "Um, sure?" Gizmo replied with uncertainty.
"Well Gizmo, you see, it's actually not, us, that he's after. Now I know this is gonna be kinda scary and hard to understand, but, Gizmo, who that guy's after, is - you." Steffauri finished. Gizmo just sat there, with a smile on his face, waiting for someone, anyone, to tell him that it was all a joke.
But no one spoke up, and by the look on Steffauri's face, he could tell that she was serious.
"Y-you weren't kidding, were you?" He asked in a pitifully weak tone of voice, as he hung his head lower to the table.
"No, I'm so sorry. That I couldn't help you stop it from happening." Steffauri said, resting her hands on the child's tiny shoulders.
"No one could." Was Gizmo's sad reply.
Meanwhile, on the planet of Alaya Pahora- The black cloaked man, and Sherry Blood, and the man's allies, were all gathered at the gates of the palace, more than ready to attack.
Inside, Queen Katrina was pacing around her rotunda styled office, looking down upon her kingdom. When she felt a hand on her shoulder, Juniper April.
"Mother, what're we to do, Chiheo and Orrei haven't even met yet! And father's been missing, Zofis is in the Pahoran Army, and our kingdom is going under attack!" Her eldest daughter shouted.
"I know dear, but they will meet, soon enough. But keep it in mind, that we cannot mess with their fate. The way things are, is the way things are, learn to live with that, because if you can't you will never, be able to prove you're worth in the royal family." Katrina stated as Juniper remained silent, and her mother left in silence as well, to reason with the attacker's leader.
About half an hour later, Katrina and the hooded man were sitting in the lavish parlor of the palace, sipping down hot, Pahoran sweet tea.
"Ah, queen Katrina, lovely to see you again." The shadowed figure said as he kissed the young red head's hand.
"Again? What do you mean by that? I could swear it, we've never met before." Katrina said, slowly taking her hand back down to her side.
"Oh but we have! You'll see, you'll see." The man stated as he slowly pulled his hood back. Katrina then clasped both hands over her mouth in a wide eyed gasp of utter shock.
"So, so it's true. But how? How in the world did you ever manage to survive the accident, and, and that was at least- The man cut her off as he wrapped both of his clawed metal hands around the black hood, and pulled it back up. – "21, years ago. I know. You were one of my best. But I still don't know how you caused such damage. I was very impressed." The man said, slowly getting into her face.
"Impressed? Accidentally taking the lives of three innocent people, is nothing to be proud, or even impressed about! I still regret it, to this very day, thank you!" Katrina stated, slowly calming herself.
The man then leaned over the helpless woman in her chair, and there was nothing she could do.
"You know, even though you're a queen now, you still have one- little- issue. You don't know you're place! You never did. I mean, honestly, now, when are you going to get it through you're head, that even though you are royalty, you are to be seen, and not heard, in the presence of people like me." The man said, as Katrina began to breathe harder.
"GUARDS!" She cried out, as two men with long, sharp and intricate swords rushed in an grabbed the man off of her.
"Trust me Katrina, I'm the least of you're worries, for the moment." Were the man's last words before he was dragged off and thrown out of the palace.
Back on Earth- The Teen titans still couldn't figure out who the cloaked man was, or where he came from.. But all that they knew, was that he had to be stopped at all costs.
Meanwhile, while Robin and Hayley did more research to try and find anything about him, Cyborg was in his room, looking over several pictures he'd saved from his week in the Hive.
Thumbing through them, he stopped at the one with he and Jinx dancing at the Sadie Hawkins Dance.
He gave a heavy sight before pinning it up onto his wall above his work desk.
"Damn, I wish I was able to be with you. But-" Cyborg paused for a long moment, he was now totally speechless. He loved the witch, and there was nothing more to say about it. Then, he made a risky decision, and picked up his cell phone.
"Yo, son." A voice answered, it was See-More. "Uh hey, see. Can you put Jinx on for me?" Cyborg asked. "Uh, sorry man, she's not here." See-More answered
"Well, can you tell her to just, please call me back. Oh, and tell her, that if she's still pissed off, that I don't blame her, and that, no matter what her decision, I'll always,- love her." Cyborg said, finally glad to have had admitted it, to someone other than himself.
"Whoa, uh, I'll tell her Mr. Desperate!" See-More laughed, as Cyborg simply gave him a 'shut the hell up and just tell her!' before hanging up."
And he simply sat there, for a few minutes, thinking of how life might've been, if they were able to stay together, but as they say, the way things are, is the way things are, so accept it.
But the problem was- He just couldn't.
"Agh! Every search engine, every clue, every lead! And still, nothing!" Robin cried out in frustration.
"Don't worry Robin, we'll find him, somehow." Hayley said, attempting to give her boyfriend hope.
"Yeah, I just hope we do before it's too- robin was cut off by the sound of the Titans alarm blaring. Raven then sat down and began typing rapidly down on the computer consol. "It's him." She stated simply, as the Titans headed out to the location of the man.
Meanwhile, on Pahora, the cloaked man's allies were already beginning top destroy everything in their path that they could get their hands on.
However, no one else within the walls of the palace was allowed to pass in or out, no matter what.
Inside, up in the section of the palace where her large and lavish room was, Katrina watched in agony as her beloved kingdom was annihilated. (There's that damn word again!) And yet, there was nothing left for her to do.
"Chiheo, Orrei, if you can hear me, feel it, and heed the warnings, come home soon, you act as one, help us, please." Katrina thought to herself, now clutching her moonfire pendant, in tears.
As if she didn't hurry, then her two youngest children, and her planet's only hope, would be killed off as well.
