"Titans?" Robin asked curiously as he looked over them…only two other than him were there, "Where's Beastboy and Raven?" "Out," Cyborg told his pal as he jammed to some music in his computer, "They said they were going to get some pizza and shop around a bit." "Raven? Shop? That's is unlikely." Starfire put in and floated over to the window, "Robin, may we go out?" "What?" Robin replied in astonishment, "You mean like just look around and stuff?" "Yeah we can all go! I drive!" the half robot half man exclaimed rushing off to boost up his car. The other two followed him into the elevator and they sped downwards.
"So Raven how is everything?" BB asked one of his two best friends as they ate there slices of pizza. "It is very good Beastboy, I wish I could have tried this sooner." She replied looking at him with lowered eyelids and a slight smile. "So…." BB strayed off into thought. "Yeah…." Raven sighed lazily. "Wanna make out?" the boy asked. A billion things blew up at once inside the pizzaria upon hearing this while Raven blushed violently. No one had ever said that to her and she especially wasn't expecting that. "Geez, Raven I was just joking around." BB told her in a doubtfully happy mood. "Oh, yes of course." Raven replied still blushing.
Hurriedly Raven ran over and hugged Beast Boy to herself. Now it was BB's turn to blush as Raven wrapped her cloak around them. FWOOSH! They reappeared in an alley below. "Sorry," Raven told her companion, "But those people were gonna come up from downstairs and get us, I could sense it." "Oh," the greenchild replied with sad eyebrows but still a smile, "So you didn't really wanna hug me or anything right?" "Um, let's not tell the others about that okay?" "Agreed!"
"BOOYAH!" Cyborg cried as he launched the T Car over a hill and down a city street, "This is the bomb!" Starfire and Robin however were being sucked back into the cushions from the immense speed and could hardly say anything. "WAHOO!" Suddenly the sky went dark as a huge shadow covered the sky and the city below. Immediately Cyborg slammed on the breaks knocking the wind out of the other organisms and stepped out. "WHOA…" Cyborg said getting lost in a train of thought. Up above hovered an immense battle ship of sorts that expanded to probably 2 or 3 miles long and at least half a mile wide. Painted on the underside was a huge, black, thick V. The craft floated quickly across the sky as the rockets spewed out plasma. Finally the airbase disappeared into the horizon beyond as it began to land. "What on earth was that!" all them asked simultaneously.
"So, whatcha wanna do Raven?" Beastboy asked looking at the ground, "Investigate that thing that just flew overhead?" "Of course we need to." Raven replied, "But I felt something strange being given off from it, like some kind of force." "Ok, race ya there!" BB exclaimed and turned into a hawk. Raven glided after him cautious of anything she saw. Spreading out telkenitic wings she was able to easily keep up with her friend and soon enough they saw the other titans down below them. Raven and Beastboy lowered to the ground and returned to normal.
"Hey guys!" Beastboy exclaimed giving everyone there a hug, "me and Raven here had a great time! We had pizza, ran away from an angry mob supposedly, and just now saw a huge thing fly overhead so we're gonna check it out!" "Hey so did we man!" Cyborg told him, "Everyone into the car…I drive!"
VROOM! The car sped quickly over the another hill and through another building accidentally. "Sorry, I apologize for my friend, please we are in an emergency do not be too mad!" Starfire kept saying through her open window. Robin pulled her back just in time to not get her head skewered by a jagged pipe. "Starfire be careful!" he shouted over the loud roar of the car. "Oh I am so sorry Robin!" Starfire apologized hugging him. WHUMP! "Whoa!" they cried as they went over a bump and into the air. FWOOM! The car landed on its side and spun around a few times before ultimately crashing roof first into a building.
"Oh come on! He's still alive!" Jack asked angrily as he and Shelaunda carried him to the surgery room, "Man this sucks! Here you take him, me and Destro are going for that little game I promised him!" "Jack!" Shelaunda cried as he let the man drop to the floor and rush towards the beast's chamber. "YO!" Jack yelled opening the pipe to his environement, "Time to play with those supers I promised you!" Destro quickly slipped out of the cylindrical tube in a cloud of bubbles and got into the backpack Jack was carrying.
"Jack I can't take this man to the surgery room all by myself!" Shelaunda called out but he was already gone., "…Jake, Amy! Get in here now!"
"Dude!" Beastboy shouted surprised, "This thing's huge!" Indeed it was. The craft had to land in the desert a few miles off so as not to attract anymore attention to itself. However they must have been spotted as shark shaped miniships were about to crash into them. The titans easily avoided all these and ran towards the huge ship. BLAM! A cannon just missed Robin's head by a centimeter and collided with a bunch of rocks behind him. "Titans GO!" he shouted and they leapt onto the craft.
"Well done, as should be epxected!" Dr. Jack Kite announced raising his claws into the air and grinning happily while a platform lifted him up, "But you are still no match for us. For we have something you don't…a monster! I give to you Destro! The god of Cleansing!" With that Jack threw his backpack to the ground and it instantly exploded. FWOOM! The black bubbles rushed around everywhere extremely quick and formed into the glowy eyed beast known as Destro. His light purple skin showed beneath his red and yellow robes. The pupils of his green eyes narrowed on the heroes and stared at them in anger.
"WHOA!" the boys shouted while Starfire went, "EEK!" "Destro!" Raven gasped remembering the story she had read about him a day before, "But in this time period!" SLASH! Robin was sent flying hi into the air by the monster's clawed uppercut. Blood spurted from his cuts and began to fall back down. "I have you robin!" Starfire exclaimed and caught him, "AHH!" With no time to waste Destro had easily leapt a quarter of a mile into the air and slammed Starfire downwards. KRASH! They both landed on the hard metal surface of the air craft.
Destro landed back down with a thud and turned his attention to someone who had just shot at him. He let out a roar and charged at Cyborg head on. The metal man was thrown right through one of the ships platforms and into an electric grid behind it. "WRAH!" he screamed and shut down. "GRAWRR!" Beastboy roared and charged at his opponent in his monster form. The two met in the center of the ship and grabbed eachother's hands attempting to knock the other off balance.
"Wra!" Beastboy exclaimed confused as Destro twisted his arm off to the side and kneed him in the throat. "CRAUGH!" he coughed reverting back to his boy form and dropping to the ground. He couldn't stop coughing as the monstrosity kicked him over into the side of a cannon. Destro leapt over to him raising his claws to finish him off and met the surface of Raven's telekinises shield.
The great spirit spun around in rage and threw himself at the girl. She quickly wrapped her cloal around herself and appeared next to Beastboy. She wrapped her cloak around him in a tight hug and warped to where Cyborg lay shut down. Raven dropped her friend next to Cyborg and warped to where she originally was. "Okay Destro, come on! No one does that to my friends and gets away with it!"
"Haha, this is great!" Jack laughed wiping a tear from his eye as he watched in amusement, "Raven you are no match for Destro give up!" "Yeah right." She mearly replied to the insane scientist and got in a fighting pose. Destro roared angrily and charged at her. "Athera Metrion Zinthos!" she cried and sent metal chunks flying straight at him. The monster saw the huge pieces of metal flying his way and jumped over them, then ducked under the second part, jumped again, and finally slammed both of his fists down on the girl's body. "UGH!" she cried as she fell to the ground, "That didn't work out too greatly…" "Face it Raven!" Jack yelled in blissfulness, "You lose, get your teamates out of here and you can face us when we rule the earth!"
Raven looked up at the man, but was losing consiousness rather quickly and moaned, "We can't…" "Oh that's to bad, then you'll have to die I guess!" he yelled back, "So Destro, finish her!" With the rest of her energy she could gather together Raven quickly teleported to her fallen companions and teleported them away to the edge of the city and fainted.
Well now this chapter is where it really starts for the Titans here. For other cartoons it started in other places but now we're gonna get to see how powerful Destro has become. In these next few chapters they will rip through Jump City and move on towards the next power gem, can the Titans stop them, or will they be defeated? Just wait and see
