Disclamer: I do not own "Garfield" or "Teen Titans"

--------------------------------------------

"Okay, Team…" Said Robin. "If we can even hope to locate Odie… we need to go back the to area he was taken…"

Robin turned to face Garfield.

"We're gonna find him…" He told the cat. "Don't worry…"

Garfield nodded, then meowed.

"He says he's wondering if he gets to use some cool things to help us save him…" Translated Beastboy. (A/N: It would make sense he could speak "Animal", it would be a sensible plus to his powers…)

"I don't think he should come…" said Robin. "I don't Slade would go easy on an animal…"

Garfield protest with an angry hiss and a yowl.

"He says it's his fault Odie was dog-napped; he ran him out of the house. He's going with us… you can't stop him…" Said Beastboy.

Robin rolled his eyes impatiently.

"Aw, c'mon, Robin…" Said Cyborg. "Just let the cat come… he might be helpful…"

"But-"

Robin stopped when he say the determined look on Garfield's face.

"Fine…" The Boy Wonder gave in, as Garfield grinned triumphantly. "Fine…have it your way…"

Garfield mewed contently.

"He says don't worry… he won't let us down…"

Odie stared incredulously at the space behind him. He couldn't believe it…

"Odysuess! It is you!" cried the spaniel-type dog, his mother… Penelope. She reached her paw through the bars of her cage, as did another dog, a scruffy Jack Russell Terrier; Arthur, his father.

"Mom! Dad! What are you doing here?" Odie cried as he stretched his paw to touch his parents'… once he did he let out a contented sigh… it had been so long since he saw them.

"Well, Odie m'boy…" his father began to explain. "Remember the lab accident about 27 years ago?"

"How could I forget!" Odie exclaimed.

"And that someone had caused it?" his mother continued.

Odie nodded slowly.

"Now what if we were to say that the person who did it was the same to dognap us?" his father kept on.

"So…what you're saying… is that…?" Odie paused.

"Go on…" his mother encouraged him.

"That… Slade started this whole mess in the first place?"

Both dogs nodded.

"But… how have you two been okay for 27 years?"

"Slade may be evil, and psychotic, and… otherwise smart… but at least he made sure to have our 'accommodations' up to ASPCA standards… he didn't want animal control snooping around if we howled…" Arthur grinned.

"Where's Lyman?" Odie suddenly got excited. "Is he here, too?"

Penelope quickly averted her gaze from her son.

"We…don't know…we haven't seen him since that day… we thought he was with you…"

Silence.

"So…"Arthur said to bring the mood back. "Wanna hear my latest escape plan?"

"Arthur…" Penelope said warningly. "Your last one didn't work… what makes you think it'll work now?"

"We've got our boy now…"

Penelope open her mouth to speak, but didn't say anything, closed it again, and nodded.

"Okay… here's what we're gonna do…"Arthur whispered.
