Holy crap! Sorry for the delay people. weeps I never thought it would take this long. Anyways let's get back to the story.
Everybody heard the scream and came running to the living room. "What's going on?" asked Leo. All of a sudden Mikey and Raph came in running for their lives while StarFire came chasing in with death on her face. She fired star bolt after star bolt until they were backed up into a corner. She decided to unleash her laser eyes on them until Raven stopped her by binding her body with her powers.
As soon as she was subdued, Leo and Donnie confronted Mikey and Raph. "What did you guys do to get her so mad?" Donnie exclaimed. "We didn't do anything! We swear!" pleaded Mikey. "Yeah! We were just checking on her then she woke up, screamed at us and started blasting us." Raph explained. "This time it wasn't our fault."
"This time…" Leo shook his head in dismay. When Star Fire calmed down, after saying profanities in Tameranian, the Titans told her what happened and that the turtles were friends. She was so embarrassed that she was blushing beet red. "I am truly sorry, but you look like the Turtotus men of the planet Aquatos, they have been enemies of Tameran for centuries."
"Heh, its fine we weren't hurt…much" Mikey sheepishly said. Donnie put a finger to his chin and started to think. "Hmm" His mind started to wander off and Raph tapped his shoulder. "What's up Don?" Donnie closed his eyes and concentrated "Where have I heard Tameran before?"
"Please, let me show my thanks in a group hug" StarFire suddenly grabbed all the turtles and started to 'hug' them in a most unpleasant way. They didn't now how she extended her arms to keep them in her grip but it was crushing them. "Thanks, but can we start breathing again, please!" Raph managed to cough out. She gently laid them down and blushed even more. At that perfect moment the Titans alarm went off and sent the turtles in hysteria.
"Gah! We're under attack!"
Each of the turtles hid in different areas. Mikey and Raph went under the table while Leo and Don went behind the couch. The Titans crossed expressions and started to laugh. "Don't worry, that's just our alarm, it's telling us that there's some more trouble in the city." The turtles got up from their embarrassing positions. It was their turn to blush now.
The turtles and Titans both arrived at the scene where they saw that Cinderblock was smashing up the place…again. The Titans groaned as they saw the acts of the stone behemoth. "Don't villans do anything else then wreck things?" Beast Boy grumbled. "It doesn't matter; we still need to stop this, TITANS GO!" With that the Titans jumped into the fray. Leo turned to his brothers, unsheathing his blades "Guys, lets go!" The turtles jumped in, drawing their weapons as well.
Cinder block stopped smashing the wall of a post office and noticed the Titans and turtles. He positioned himself and unleashed a gigantic war cry. They fell on their knees and covered their ears to block the mind wrenching scream and when it was over Plasmeus and Overload came out and surrounded them. "Seems you guys are real popular with the villains around here." joked Mikey twirling his nunchakus. "Naturally." Cyborg said while charging his sonic cannon. Leo and Robin both looked at each other and gave smiles. "Guys, split up!" They all teamed with Turtles and Titans and jumped to battle.
Robin and Cinderblock stared off with each other, Leo and Don at his sides. Cinderblock charged in and cocked back his arm and slammed it in the ground to unleash a massive shockwave. The three jumped in the air and prepared their weapons. Don came down first, took his staff and brought it down on Cinderblock's head, but the result was that it broke in two. "Uh oh" Don was then backhanded and was flew straight into a nearby lamp post. He was fine but was now left weaponless. "Don! Catch!" Robin took out a small staff and threw it toward Don, which he caught. When he gripped it the small staff extended into the Bo staff we all know and love. "Amazing! With just a simple touch it can extend and retract!" Don marveled over the weapon. "Hey Don, we're still in a fight over here!" Leo yelled to his brother. Don got up and jumped back into the fight.
Raven and Cyborg stared disgustingly at the monster that is Plasmeus, Raph mumbled something about hacking up his breakfast. Plasmeus looked particularly gross this time. His whole body seemed to be oozing with green and purple slime. "He could be doing some new kind of technique or…" He looked up and was greeted with a ferocious gaze of the sun. "…the heats messing with his slime." He concluded. It was in the sunny season after all. Plasmeus was straining to keep himself together. He was wheezing and looked like he was sweating green water. Raven noticed Raph's sai's and got an idea.
"Raph, can I borrow your sai's?"
Raph gave his beloved sai's to Raven which she held with her powers. They began to spin with amazing speed. She bolted the spinning blades toward the slime creature and continued to hack and slash Plasmeus. When she was done, it was reduced to nothing but a man in a puddle of his own goop.
"Well that was easy." Raven said standing over the puddle with a sleeping man in the middle of it. Raph looked at his sai's which were covered in the slime. "Now I'm really gunna heave." He turned a lighter shade of green and headed for the nearest trash can.
Mikey and Beast Boy were huddled together figuring out a plan, leaving Star Fire to deal with Overload by herself. She finally threw him into an office building and went to the two green teens. "Are you now done strategizing? We must, as Robin says, 'take him down'."
"No worries Star, we came up with a plan." And with that Beast Boy flew into the air as a falcon while Mikey whispered to Star the plan. Overload, on the other hand, shot up from the rubble in electrical form and surveyed the battlefield. He only saw two now instead of three heroes but paid it no mind. The electrical beast morphed its hands into whip-like weapons and lashed out at the two remaining heroes. They both quickly dodged and charged in. Overload twisted his massive arms and swung it around him and back-lashed it back at them. "Time to PARTY!" Mikey ducked by letting the whip pass over him that gave him the momentum to get on his back and spin rapidly like a top and using the force of his run, was dashing toward Overload at an alarming rate. Overload wasn't quick enough and was tripped by Mikey's spin. Starfire soon came in over head and combined her eye blasts with her star bolts to force the monster into the ground. Meanwhile, Beast Boy had a bird's eye view of the battle and saw that Overload was disoriented and quickly morphed from a hawk into a brontosaurus and came crashing down on top of Overload. Beast Boy became a human once more and looked at the job well done by him and his allies and picked up the groaning chip of what was Overload. Starfire floated down to where Mikey landed as his spin lost control and crashed into a mailbox. "Do you require aid?" Asked the Tameranian. "Nah I'm fine."
Robin and Donnie wielded there staves as Cinderblock continued his onslaught of punches and shockwaves. While they were distracting Cinderblock, Leo jumped over him from behind, came down and slashed so swiftly that it couldn't be seen. The enraged giant cocked both of his arms back to unleash another shockwave but nothing came. Cinderblock looked to see that both of his hands had been severed and laid limp upon the cracked street. "Lights out blockhead" Robin quickly said as he flipped and landed upon a nearby wall and Donnie imitated only from behind him. Leo jumped once again on top of Cinderblock's head to use as a spring to jump even to a greater height. Both Robin and Donnie lunged toward Cinderblock, their bo staffs positioned like baseball bats, and smacked the front and back of his head as Leo embedded his heel into his cranium. The three pronged attack was too great for him to handle and quickly fell to his knees as he blacked out into unconsciousness.
The turtles and titans all grouped to where the fallen Cinderblock laid and drop their bad guy's as well. "Three villains down." Beast Boy shouted to Cyborg. "Ready to go." Cyborg yelled back. Mikey quickly caught on and stood next to Beast Boy and shouted as well, "We be fast…" They all got together and yelled in unison. "…and they be slow!" (Yah, I like GhostBusters ) Everyone went around and congratulated each other, but their real problems were just about to begin. Mikey gave a quick glance of his surroundings and saw the citizens of Jump city were lingering. "Ah! Our adoring fans!" Mikey quickly turned around started to wave his hands. "No need to thank us. We're just doing our job, The T…" he couldn't give out the last sentence for Raph had quickly covered his mouth with his hand. "I told you never call us that!" he scorned. But, no cheers met Mikeys outbursts, no screams no yells, nothing. Every one of the citizens just looked on, specifically at the turtles, with a hateful look in all of their eyes. It was as quiet as a cemetery, which they would have rather have been than an awkward silence. Just then a rock was thrown unexpectedly at the back of Raph's head. "What the? Alright who threw that!" he said as he grabbed the back of his head and felt a light trickle of his blood oozing out.
"Get out of here you damn monsters!" One citizen yelled out. Others then began shooting their insults at the unsuspecting turtles.
"We had enough of your kind!"
"Just leave us alone."
"We need to kill monsters like you."
"Mommy! The scary frog people want to eat us!"
This and more where shouted amongst the horde of citizens. The turtles looked on in different directions seeing that there was no escaping the words. They had been so many battles before but this…this was much different. They were at the mercy of the ignorance of the people's hate for the monstrosities that plagued them for so long. The overflowing of intense glares and dirty looks aimed at them for just being there, for being alive. They tried to reason with the angry mob but their words were drowned out with even more insults. For the Turtles they had no say in the matter, and the Titans were yelled at because they were, "not doing their jobs". Everything is getting chaotic; it looked like there was no ceasing the pain-filled threats with poison at the tip. The turtles were amazed, confused, but mostly scared. They faced aliens, other mutants, even survived being sucked through a black hole, with all these past experiences they were never prepared to be hated. The Titans have had enough of this. These people had no right to criticize the turtles, they had done nothing wrong.
What was more enraging was what these people thought. Did they think that of the Titans? All they did was help, and were called freaks behind their backs? Did they only come out now because there was someone freakier then them? These questions along with a dozen others were thought amongst the Titans. They had their share of humiliation before, but out of the group Raven had summed up enough courage to go against the mob. She found the rock that was thrown at Raphael and found the small portion of the rock that was covered in his blood. She griped it as if expecting it to pop. "You guys wanna throw rocks?" Her question was answered back with a roar of shouts. "Then let's throw rocks." The rock in her hand started to resonate with a familiar obsidian aura and Ravens eyes went as dark as the night itself. The rock started to levitate from her hand and now started to rumble. The earth started to shake beneath her feet and so did everyone else's. The rock shook with such ferocity that it looked like it was about to explode and take every thing with it. The citizens knew what was about to happen next if they stayed to long and did the only thing they could do. Run. The angry mob soon became a fleeting group of fear and discord. "Holy crap! She's going to throw that grenade at us! Run for your lives!"
Ravens voice boomed so everyone can here. "FOOLS! YOU HAVE BROUGHT MY WRATH UPON YOU! COWER BEFORE MY FURY! FLEE FROM MY…" when the group was a clear mile away, she powered herself down and so did the rock. "…illusion." The Titans and turtles were alone once again and now they had time to collect themselves. Though, every one took a step away from Raven for fear that they might end up being blown up. Each of the turtles were taken from their hero status were driven straight down the ranks of the criminals that they just caught, monsters. Raph was yelling and screaming; tears flew from his mask and streamed from his eyes. Don stood with a hand to his face to stop his tears, but they came. Mikey, was on the ground with his arms over his knees bawling. Leo walked over to the Titans with a long face.
"We're sorry for the trouble we've caused." He said with the saddest tone. "If you want us to leave the city, we understand, we'll gladly do so." After that, he turned to collect his broken brothers and head for their car.
"Hold it." Robin threw a hand that met Leos shoulder. "We don't want you to leave; you've done nothing to deserve that." Leo turned his head to see the rest of the group looking back at him. His brothers joined him. "We shouldn't have gone to this city in the first place." Raph huffed. "You guys wouldn't want a bunch of freaks hanging around with you." Mikey depressingly said. "Dude, were pretty much freaks ourselves." Everyone looked at Beast Boy's direction. He saw that he failed to cheer them up so he cracked a smile and scratched his head. "Speak for yourself." Raven shot.
"What are you talking about Raven; you're freakier than anyone here." He shot back. "Hey, at least I don't turn myself into a dog and drag my ass over the floor."
"Oh c'mon, one time I did that, one time, and I was curious." The two continued to argue, the others stared at them with sorrows long forgotten. With the tears wiped from their eyes, they enjoyed the battle of words between the two Titans. "Don't they remind you of anyone?" Don caught Leo's attention. Leo looked at Beast Boy and Raven and knew who Don was talking about. "I guess it's a lover's quarrel." When the word lover's was even uttered, it immediately stopped the two and looked towards the Turtles, who laughing hysterically due to the thought of their friends back home, with eyebrows raised. "What do you mean lovers?" The two yelled. Don and Leo smiled. "Back in New York, we have two friends who argue all of the time." Don explained. "They fight all the time, insult each other, even break things, but in the end they became friends, good friends actually." Leo finished. Raven just huffed and looked the other way. Beast boy though smiled triumphantly. "Well I can't blame Raven for falling for me, with my devilishly good looks, how can she resist? Right Raven?" He turned to the girl. "Outward appearances don't matter Beast Boy, its what matters on the inside." She said matter-of-factly. "Is she trying to say I'm ugly?" He whispered to Robin. "Pretty much." He whispered back.
"Well, you guys still gunna stay? We're gunna go get some eats and want you to come." Cyborg invited. "You guys wouldn't mind?" Leo questioned. "Of course not! You are welcomed guests and we would love nothing better than you to join us for "the eats". Starfire gently held Leo's hands and moved her face extremely close to his. It was good that her eyes were affixed to his; otherwise she would have seen him blushing. "You will stay, yes?"
"I…err..well…um..I'm not…ok" He stuttered. "Wonderful." She squealed. Robin watched on in a scornful silence. Leo's brothers watched their fearless leader become a puddle of mush in front of the princess and laughed to themselves. They all drove off to the pizza parlor to get something to eat.
