Ch. 3: A biker and a black sheep

Terra was holding her own at the front. She looked towards the city wondering what was going on in there. It seemed to be a success as a matter of fact.

Raven's army was advancing and blasting away any enemy robot that came into sight. Raven said a silent thank you to Beast Boy knowing he took out that cannon earlier.

H.I.V.E.

A few robots were in a room with a great holographic projection of the city. The blue wizard from before, Mumbo Jumbo, was there as well. He was panicking at how the army of the city could get through so quickly.

"They're breaking through the forward positions. They're getting closer! They destroyed the cannon! What are we going to do?"

He turned to a tall, muscular man in a black outfit.

"You, Johnny Rancid," Mumbo shouted, "I don't know why Malchior sent you if you're just going to stand around all day!"

Just then, Rancid walked up and grasped his large fist over Mumbo's throat.

"I mean," Mumbo choked out, "Whenever you're ready."

Rancid merely growled in response.

In a few minutes

Johnny Rancid led a group robots as well as his own creation, a giant mechanical bulldog named Wrex, into battle. He mounted his black and red motorcycle and sped off.

"Let's show these stupid little kids that they're no match for us!" Rancid shouted.

He sped off on his cycle with Wrex and the robots tailing right behind. He rammed into any robot in his path and shot any that were farther away with a gun.

Wrex ran over or crushed with his jaws any robot in his way. A great deal of the Jump City army was wiped out by the motorcycle thug and his troop.

Several explosions took place and Johnny Rancid stopped for a minute to look around at the decimated machines. He laughed as he raised his fist in victory for evil.

"We totally kicked their butts!"

Elsewhere

Several strange looking aliens were fighting one another in a melee battle. Malchior was heading to that very place. He was greeted by Master of Games.

"Greetings, o illustrious Malchior," he said.

"You certainly get around," Malchior replied.

"I go were I am needed. The free for all battle has been arranged. I trust you will find what you seek."

"Indeed."

The two walked inside to a balcony seat so as to get a good view of all the fighters. The two sat next to each other. Malchior stared at the fighters intently. Then without turning his head he spoke.

"Impressive. You are very good at hiding your presence. My host would applaud you, but I'm not looking for a spy."

The new figure that sat next to him was a tall girl in black and full body armor with black hair and orange skin. She flew down to the arena and began firing purple starbolts from her hands and eyes at the opponents. They ganged up on her, but any that were too far away got hit with a bolt. Any too close were sent flying with unexpected super strength.

Finally, she was the last standing. Malchior slowly clapped as she bowed in appreciation.

"You are more powerful than I thought, Blackfire," Malchior said.

"I'm stronger than any villain could be. I'm Tamaranian after all."

"Villain you say?"

Malchior jumped from his balcony seat to the arena below.

"You may act evil, but you are just a common criminal. Stealing and backstabbing doesn't make you a villain. True villains have no fear. You are scared of the Titans."

"What?" Blackfire stated, "I'm not afraid of my sister Starfire or any of her pathetic friends. I can destroy them all. Besides what do you know about villainy anyway? I know all about you. You're just an old guy made of paper."

Malchior turned his back to her.

"Really?" was all he said.

Blackfire was about to blast him, but just then Malchior turned into his dragon form. She managed to fly out of the way of his fire breath, but was hit hard by his tail.

He then pinned her down with a claw. He then knocked her out with a flick of a finger.

Later

Blackfire came to in a big, empty room. She looked around and Malchior, back in human form, was there ready to attack. He sent out a shot of energy from his hands and she dodged. She sent starbolts at him and he dodged. Both sent out blasts at the same time.

"If you were truly evil, would this contest be not over?" he asked.

This went on until he switched to dragon and blew her away with a breath of fire. When she was down he went to human and walked up to her.

"Go ahead," she said, "Finish me off."

"Sorry, but we have other plans. Have you been watching, Master?"

"Indeed I have," said a new voice, "You have chosen a very promising new addition."

It was coming from a life size hologram mounted on a moving platform.

"May I present my master, Deathstroke," Malchior said.

Blackfire did a bow.

"I'm honored, Deathstroke. I've heard so much about you. What do want from me?"

"You've heard of the newest Titan, Terra?"

"Yeah, so?"

"You will eliminate her."

"Easy enough, but the other Titans might be nearby and I'll be outnumbered."

"We will make sure it's one on one," Deathstroke assured her.

"Consider this a gift," Malchior added holding out a red gem, "The Jewel of Charta will enhance your powers even more so."

As she took the jewel her eyes glowed red as the gem itself. With that, she flew off to the destination of the current battle.

Malchior and the Deathstroke hologram stood side by side as they looked on.

"She will be more than a match for Terra," Malchior said.

"It doesn't matter," replied Deathstroke, "She is only an instrument in bringing an end to the Titans once and for all."
