When Worlds Collide

Chapter 9-Going to Meridian

The Guardians

"Okay", Robin said, "You want me to go through that?"

"It's just a portal", Will said, "It's not gonna hurt you or anything, promise, it's safe"

"The portal's safe", Irma said, "it's what's on the other side that worries me"

"Why?" Robin asked, "What's on the other side?"

"We don't know", Irma said, "That's why it worries me"

"Come on", Will said, holding up the Heart, "lets' just do this. Guardians Unite!"

"Water!"

"Fire!"
"Earth!"

"Air!"

"Okay", Will said, "Lets' go through before any of us loose thr nerve"

"Like me", Robin muttered, eyeing the portal wearily.

"I'll go first", Irma said, jumping through.

"I'll go next", Cornelia said stepping through slowly.

"Me next!" Hay Lin said excitedly, running through.

"I can go last", Robin volunteered.

"No way", Will said with a smile, "'ll go last, Taranee you go now"

Taranee nodded and stepped through. Robin eyed the portal again, then stepped through. Will shook her head. She knew if Robin had gone last, he would have run off, he hadn't been very eager to go through the portal. Will stepped through, and came out in Meridian.

"Okay", Irma said, rubbing her hands together, "Lets' do this!"

"Don't sound to eager Irma", Cornelias said, "Lets' just get this over with"

"Yea", Robin said, looking around, "So where are we?"

"Meridian", Will said, "It's kind of creepy, I know"
"Kind of?" Robin said incrudiously, "Kind of?"

"Okay, very creepy", Will said, "Either way, you get used to it. Kind of"

"lets just get to the castle", Taranee said, "And try to be careful not to get caught"

Teen Titans

"Does that dude seriously think he can keep us here?" Beast Boy asked, "This couldn't hold a baby"

"Beast Boy, I wouldn't", Cyborg didn't have a chance to say anything more because Beast Boy had morphed into a bird, and had started flying to the top of wherever they were (A/N-It's suppose to be the Oubliette, I'm not sure how to describe it though).

"This is gonna end badly", Raven muttered, watching Beast boy fly upward.

Wham! It was almost like Beast boy had run into an invisible wall. Either way, he hit something, and instantly plummeted back towards the ground.

"Duuude", Beast Boy whined as soon as he had hit the ground and morphed back to his regular form, "This guy knows what he's doing"

"Told you", Cyborg said, pulling his friend up, "Did you really think this guy was just gonna leave us here without any guard or anything?"

"Ow", Beast Boy muttered in response, rubbing his arm.

"Perhaps we can break the shield", Starfire suggested, her hands glowing green.

"Uh oh", Raven muttered as Starfire fired her starbolts. The little green bolts bounce off the shield, and back down towards them. Raven was quick to throw up a shield of her own until the bolts died down.

"Any other suggestions?" Raven asked, glaring at Beast Boy and Starfire.

"Okay, so we had a few dumb ideas", Beast Boy said, "I don't see you coming up with anything"

"Don't fight", Cyborg said boredly, "Raven, you're the queen of paramormal, so tell us, where the heck are we?"

Raven shrugged, still glaring at Beast Boy. "Okay" Cyborg said, "We still need to do something though"

"What ever became of Robin?" Starfire asked.

The Guardians

"Fire!" Taranee cried, firing at the thorns that blocked the path. A fireball formed around her hand and shot at the thorns, burning them up.

"Okay", Robin said, "So now what?"

"I don't see why we can't just fly there", Cornelia whined, "I'm tired of walking"
"We've gotta try and stay low", Will explained for the millionth time, "We don't want to let Phobos know that we're coming"

"It's a good idea", Hay Lin said, "Come on, we're almost to the castle"

Ten minutes later they were at the castle moat.

"Okay", Will said, "Now we can fly"

Hay Lin grabbed Robin and the gang made for a near by window. They flew through the window and landed in one of the hallways.

"So how do we find them?" Cornelia asked.

"We'll find a way-" Will started to say.

"There!" yelled a voice behind them. They whirled around and saw the castle guards standing there, preparing to attack.
