Mystery and Red X stood in front of Thorn. Mystery glanced at the cane in her hands, then handed it over to Thorn.
Thorn smiled as he looked it over. Then he called Gizmo. "Here,'' he said, tossing it to him. "Tweak that until it operates my house."
Gizmo nodded and stared blankly at Mystery. "Where'd she-"
"Now!" Thorn roared. Gizmo jumped, nodded, and got to work. Thorn resumed his smile and looked back at Red X and Mystery. "You two may get some rest."
Red X nodded and walked down to his room, which doubled as Dayna's official caging room. Dayna was lying on her side, asleep. Red X took one look at her, pulled his mask off, and sat down in his chair to sleep.
Mystery, however, was staring curiously at Thorn. "And where am I supposed to sleep?" she asked, her dark eyes staring into his own.
"There is an empty room by my room," Thorn told her. "You may sleep there."
Mystery nodded and left.
Gizmo looked up from Mad Mod's cane. "Can I go to bed too?''
Thorn shook his head. "No, Gizmo. Not until you fix that." And with that, he left.
Gizmo started muttering under his breath, and turned his attention once more to the cane.
WeaselChick: Break time! During the next two days, NOTHING happened. Robin hasn't found a way to use Terra and Dayna's fighting and Red X's anger problem for their good. Cyborg is getting extremely close to locating Thorn, and only Giz has actually been able to do what he's been told too. And now, back to the story with only two hours left until Thorn kills Dayna. NOTHING extremely
Beast Boy stood in front of Robin, telling him about what had happened last night. "...and then there was this bright flash of light, and they were both gone," he finished.
Robin nodded. "What did this Mystery look like? What you could see of her, I mean."
Beast Boy paused and thought. "Well," he said after a while. "she was wearing a black bandanna on her head, had black hair, and had a black mask coverin her eyes. I think she was trying to hide somethin from me..."
Robin sighed. "She's a villian, Beast Boy. She's going to be hiding her face from you."
"Oh," Beast Boy said. "Well, then that's it, I guess."
Robin nodded and turned to Cyborg.
Then Beast Boy remembered something. "Oh yeah, and she had a gold bracelet on her arm!"
Robin looked back at Beast Boy and opened his mouth to say something.
"Booya!" Cyborg interrupted. "I've found Thorn!"
Robin looked at him, then nodded. "Good work, Cyborg. Let's go guys!"
-------------------------
Meanwhile, Thorn
Thorn stood in front of Dayna's cage, a very old looking sword in his hands.
"You don't honestly think you're going to kill me with that, do you?" Dayna asked, raising an eyebrow.
Thorn shook his head. "Of course not, Dayna," he said, brandishing the sword. "I just wanted to distract you."
"Distract me from what?"
Xanka appeared beside Thorn, his Red X outfit on and a detonator in his hand. "From this."
Dayna stared at him, the detonator, and then at Thorn. "You can not be serious."
Thorn nodded. "That cage is now lined with small bombs. If the Titans are not here in five minutes, Red X will destroy that cage and all evidence of you."
Dayna continued staring at him, shocked.
Four Minutes Later
"Can I just do it now and get it over with?" Red X asked, annoyed.
Thorn smiled. "Go ahead. The Titans apparently haven't found us yet."
Red X nodded and pressed his thumb down on the detonator button, when he was suddenly kicked back by a green kangaroo.
Dayna grinned. "Beast Boy!"
The kangaroo looked at her, then back at Red X as Robin and Cyborg came through a wall Cyborg had blasted a hole in.
Thorn looked around him at the Titans and yelled for Mystery. She appeared in a bright flash of light and blasted Beast Boy away from Red X with an energy blast. Thorn grinned as she and the others lept into battle with the Titans. As they fought, he unlocked Dayna's cage and pulled her out. "Goodbye, Titans," he said loudly, drawing their attention. "Have a fun fight." With that, he stared into Dayna's eyes and forced her to teleport away from the battle.
Red X struggled to his feet and was immediately knocked back by one of Robin's kicks. He flew through the doorway and landed on Raven, who had just arrived with Starfire.
"Get off me!" Raven growled.
"Oh, like it was my idea," Red X replied.
Raven glared at him, then threw him through a wall with her magic. He landed hard on his back and Robin stood over him. "Where did Thorn go?" Robin asked him.
"I think you should be more worried about Jinx than him," Red X said, gesturing over Robin's shoulder where Jinx was standing.
Jinx prepared to hex Robin, but was hit in the back by Starfire. As she and Starfire continued to fight, Robin turned back to Red X. "Where did he go?" he asked again.
Red X shrugged. "I have no idea," he said slowly.
Robin scowled and pulled one of his weapons out of his belt. "Where is he?"
Red X shrugged again and pressed a button on his belt. Appearing behind Robin, he kicked him hard in his head and sent him to the ground. Underneath his mask, Red X smiled as he fired an X at Robin.
------------------------------------------------------------------
While he was fighting Robin, Gizmo took on Cyborg. He was currently flying around him, metal wings supporting him, and firing missiles every chance he got. Cyborg covered his face with his arm as another missile flew towards him.
"Stop doin that!" he yelled to Gizmo, changing his arm into his sonic cannon and firing.
Gizmo stared at it, then realization hit. "Aww, crud!" he said as the blast knocked him out of the air.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Mystery stood over Beast Boy as he prepared to change again. "Don't even try it," she told him, putting one foot on his chest and charging up another energy blast. "I don't want to kill you."
Beast Boy looked up at her and changed into a rhino.
Mystery fell over onto her back and looked up into the rhino's face. It snorted and she teleported onto its back. Beast Boy, blinded by the light, jerked forward and stumbled around. Mystery laughed and hung onto its ears. "Careful, boy!" she taunted as Beast Boy got his sight back and changed into a horse. Beast Boy bucked her off and she teleported again, appearing in front of him. She raised both hands and fired two energy blasts at him.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Jinx scowled and shot another hex at Starfire. She dodged it and fired a starbolt at Jinx. It hit and Jinx went flying backwards into Red X.
Red X fell forward onto Robin and was immediately kicked off. Robin got to his feet and stood once again over Red X. He pulled out another weapon and glared at Red X. "Move and I fire."
Red X nodded and pressed his belt again. Robin turned around and fired, catching Red X in the chest as he fired another X at him. Robin's weapon turned out to be a rope, and Red X's turned into a net and bound him to the ground. They stared at each other, then went to work trying to cut their bonds.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Raven had easily captured Mammoth and left him hanging in midair. She turned to survey her team's battles. Cyborg had already defeated Gizmo and was busy taunting him; Starfire was busy firing starbolts at Jinx without leaving her time to fire back; both Red X and Robin were tied up in each others weapons and trying to be the first one to cut it; Beast Boy was being destroyed by Mystery. Raven raised her hands towards Mystery.
"Azarath Metrion Zintos!"
----------------------------------------------------------------
Mystery smiled as she shot Beast Boy. He was cowering under the force and she was happy. Then the smile fell; she was being encased with black magic. She glanced over at Raven as she was lifted into the air. Her eyes narrowed and she fired an energy blast at her. Her smile came back as Raven was knocked to the ground.
When she touched the ground again, Mystery whirled around and shot Starfire in the back, leaving her open to Jinx's hexes. Then she turned back to Beast Boy, only to find him lying unconscious by the wall. She shrugged and decided to go after Raven.
Raven lifted her head up to find Mystery floating above her, her body outlined in orange. Mystery smiled and fired two energy blasts at Raven, knocking her back to the ground.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Red X concentrated on the ropes and extended the X on the back on his glove to a four bladed knife. Slowly, he eased it up and cut the ropes off of him. He watched them fall, retracted his blades, then looked at Robin to see him break the net. Red X calmly raised his other hand as Robin charged and fired two X's at him. One wound around his ankles; the other around his waist, clamping his arms to his side. As Red X stepped up beside him and prepared to fire another one, Robin eyed him curiously.
"Tell me one thing,'' he said. "how are you able to do all of this when I have your belt?"
Red X snickered and fired another X. This one wrapped around Robin's mouth. "Trust a nosy brat like you to ask that," he said, getting down on one knee. "The midget made it for me." He stood up and walked calmly across the room to where Mystery was overwhelming Raven.
He stopped behind Mystery and raised his hand again. He fired one X at Raven and hit her in the mouth. "Need some help?'' he asked, glancing at Mystery.
Mystery smiled at him. "Not really, but thanks anyway. Now bind her arms for me."
Red X nodded and fired another X at Raven. It bound her arms to her side, and Mystery and Red X turned to see Starfire and Cyborg looking at them.
"Three down," Mystery said.
"Two to go," Red X finished.
WeaselChick: Ha! Another bad ending! Everyone cheer for me and my bad endings!
Next Chapter, we find out what Thorn is doing with Dayna, if Mystery and Red X win or if Cyborg and Starfire win. Also, some other crap that might make the story even weirder.
