Titan Wars VI: Return of the Titans
Ch. 4: Chance meetings
Terra was called into Slade's chamber.
"Yes, Slade?"
"Send a fleet to the far side of the forest base. It will stay there until called for. I have a feeling the Titans might try something."
"What about the other rebels that are getting closer?"
"They are of no concern. Soon this pathetic rebellion will be crushed and the Titans will be no more. Perhaps if persuaded Beast Boy or one of the others will join us."
"Whatever you say, boss."
"No go to the command ship and await my orders."
"Yes, master," Terra replied as she walked out.
Later
The five Titans flew the stolen Brotherhood ship across the sky towards the shield generator, but first they had to get past the heavily fortified base and several ships that blocked their path. Luckily, to avoid a tough fight they had a code to give the enemy base for easy access. See-More and Gizmo were checking the code when Terra came by.
"What is it now?" she asked noticing the ship onscreen.
"Some ship of ours wants access to our forest base," explained See-More.
"What are they carrying?"
"Just some parts and technical stuff."
"Do they have a clearance code?"
"Yeah," Gizmo replied, "But…"
"Then let them through. I've more important matters to deal with."
"Fine," grumbled Gizmo, "You guys can go through. The shield will be let down."
On the ship
"See? Told you it would work," said Cyborg.
"I think they might be suspicious," replied Beast Boy.
"Friends, we must have confidence that we will prevail," said Starfire.
They then continued on their way to the forest base. They landed some distance away from the base and snuck around the forest. All were on the lookout for any Slade-bots. Two were spotted at the bottom of an incline.
"I'll sneak up on them," Robin said.
"Wait for me," added Cy.
"Be careful, Robin," warned Star.
"Hey, it's me," he replied.
Everyone else rolled their eyes at that statement. Rob and Cy snuck around a large tree and just as Robin was about to take out a Slade-bot, he stepped on a branch.
The Slade-bot turned and smacked him across the face. The other took off on a small speeder. Cy quickly brought it down with his sonic cannon. Robin made short work of his robot with his staff. BB and Rae saw two more Slade-bots getting away on speeders and went after them. Raven turned into a black raven of energy and sped across the forest until she got in front of one Slade-bot and blasted it. She then proceeded to go after the other. Beast Boy hung back and morphed into an elephant just as two more Slade-bots on speeders came by. He swiftly grabbed one with his trunk and sent it flying. Then he morphed back human and grabbed the empty speeder.
He sped right up to the Slade-bot and morphed to a tiger and pounced on it. Having taken down both Slade-bots, he went back to the others. Raven was hit with a laser blast and sent to the ground, but not before she sent a blast of her own energy at the speeder. It went out of control and crashed. She then collapsed from exhaustion.
Meanwhile
Beast Boy saw that Robin, Star, and Cyborg relocated with several rebel fighters.
"Hey guys," BB said, "Where's Raven?"
"She did not come back yet," said Star.
"She was with you," Cy said.
"We got separated. We have to find her," BB panicked.
"Calm down," Robin said, "Rebels, meet us at the forest base while we look."
Raven
Raven was being shaken awake. She wasn't hurt so she turned to see who it was. She saw four faces she hadn't seen in a long time.
"Melvin, Timmy, Teether, Bobby. What are you doing here? I thought Slade captured all of you? You've been here all along?"
"That one-eyed meany didn't want us 'cause he said we weren't Titans," explained Melvin, "So he sent us out here."
"How have you survived here all this time?"
"Bobby brings us food," she replied pointing to the big bear who grinned with a toothy smile. Raven smiled and held out her arms for a hug. The three kids all obliged.
"Okay, that's enough," Raven said after about three seconds.
"Now where have you been staying?"
"We can show you, right Bobby?"
The bear nodded and led the way. Just as they were on their way. A Slade-bot came into view. A Blocker (the big white Slade-bots) was with it.
Raven was trying to avoid it when another Slade-bot pointed a gun at her back. Timmy started to scream and the Slade-bot short circuited.
Raven then levitated it and slammed it into the other Slade-bot. Bobby leapt into the air and pulverized the Blocker with a few swipes of his claws.
"Glad to have you guys back," Raven said as they continued.
The enemy base
Terra came before Slade and begrudgingly knelt.
"I told you to stay on the ship," Slade sneered.
"I think the Titans have found their way into the area of the forest base."
"I know. I knew they would try something foolish like that. It was all a matter of time."
"I'm sure it's the five of them."
"Your feelings are clear on this aren't they, Terra?"
"Of course, Slade, I want them captured and removed from existence."
"Excellent, then go there to be sure. I'm sure Beast Boy will come to you."
"Why's that?"
"His compassion will be his undoing. He will go to you and you will bring him before me so that we may offer him an alternative to being frozen."
"Sure thing, Slade."
