Hi there, I don't own anything from DC and this is my own story about the Titans. Enjoy!
Note: This is during One Year Later after BB and Kid Devil leaves the team.
Chapter1: We Need New Blood
Cyborg was in his room. His body was being taken apart, cleaned and being put back together, giving his mind time to think.
Vic had been the leader of the team since its creation last year. He thought of how good it had been at the beginning. Sure, there had been problems, Kid Flashes kneecap being blown off by Jericho (then in the body of Deathstroke), the whole ordeal with Raven and Brother Blood. But, as far as the team in a whole, things had been good. Tim, Cassie, Conner and Bart had given the team the hope and inspiration it needed. Even when Starfire left to join Nightwing and the Outsiders, the team was still fresh, new. Untainted. And then Luthor came, bringing with him deception in the form of a mind-controlled Superboy, and Brainiac. That was when things started to go wrong. The Outsiders had taken the harder hit, losing both Indigo and Nightwing. But the Teen Titans hadn't walked away unscathed. Superboy was too ashamed of what had happened to continue. After that, Raven was stolen by Kestrel; the power-hungry madman used her to become a lord of chaos.
And then the Crisis. Bart along with the other Flashes took the psychotic Superboy-Prime into the Speedforce, and return as the new Flash. Speedy was gone, Bart was gone, but most importantly, Superboy died, taking out both his evil counter-part and the universe-destroying tower created by Alex Luthor.
And now their were five, Robin, Wondergirl, The Ravager, and himself. That was simply unacceptable, with the threats they had to deal with now-a-days, there was simply no way the team would last with only four members. His body was fully operational again, Cyborg went to find the rest of the team and tell them his plan.
The three other members were all in the main room, Cassie and Rose were bickering as usual and robin was deep in thought, thinking about what his Superboy clone program was missing. Robin looked up when Cyborg came into the room, as did Cassie and Rose.
"Alright, let's get right down to it." Cyborg said "The fact of the matter is that the Teen Titans are, well, depleted at the moment."
"Is that 'Leader Speak' for were Shit outta members?" Cassie quipped
"Basically, yeah," Cyborg replied in all seriousness "we are flat out screwed when it comes to currant team members. This is a case where quantity is just as important as quality. We need new, strong heroes, and we need them now before we attacked or ambushed or whatever. Speedy is on a island training with Conner Hawke, so she's of the list, Starfire and Raven are currently MIA, Beast Boy, Bumblebee and Herald have all passed us up for the Doom Patrol, who we are not going to let keep Kid Devil. Wendy and Marvin told me that there are other members around the world, but they won't come until we go to them. I'd ask Nightwing to join, but he's got too much crap to deal with in New York right now and Bart has gone the way of Barry Allen. He's a Titan, but now he's also the Flash so I wouldn't count on his support."
"So how do you suggest we get new members?" Tim asked. He had his fingers in an arch and was looking at Cyborg over them. Tim was thinking about Conner, about how if he could punch in the right sequence of genomes, maybe the team could have Superboy again. His thought strayed to a question in his mind, would Connor want to resurrected? He had gone out on top, giving the ultimate sacrifice for the entire universe. Would Superboy want to be remembered any other way? In Tim's heart, he knew the answer. Connor would be overjoyed to be back with his friends, to be able to hold and comfort Cassie, to joke around with Tim, to in his own words; 'Hand those Brotherhood of Evil Losers their collective asses!'
Cyborgs answer took Tim out of his reverie. "Simple." Vic said with a smile "We find some heroes. Heroes that won't to do good, want to learn the ropes if their new, heroes that won't be afraid to cross some lines for the greater good. Basically, we need some meta punks."
A smile broke on Rose's face and the team left to do their collective things. Only Robin stayed seated. Cyborg said they needed metas. Tim had a different idea; they didn't need metas, they needed clones.
