An enormous thanks goes out to all who made this story possible. To Ravengal, I have this to say: I told you she'd be back (the name is in here!). And to World of Nightmares: I am eternally indebted to

Chapter Eleven: A New Foe

Titans Tower.

Noon.

Shadow and Nightmare should be here any minute.

Until…

WOOP WOOP WOOP!

"Titans! Trouble!" shouted Robin.

"Where?" shouted BB.

"The Financial District!" he yelled back as he led them to the scene of the crime.

There, they saw a familiar face as well as a not-so-familiar one.

Lavender was there, her many clones attacking an armored truck. She seemed to have trained her minions since her last encounter with the Titans, and they (the minions, or clones or whatever you want to call them) were all addressing her as Lagnevar. (pronounced LAG-NEVAHR) She also had a snazzy new outfit- it was icy blue, to match her eyes, and had an oddly familiar 'S' on it. It was Slade's mark.

There was a man standing next to her. He was in his late teens, maybe 19 or so, about a year or two older than her. He had slicked back black hair, and he wore a leather jacket and jeans. Underneath the jacket there was a white t-shirt, with the same 'S' emblem on it. Finally, he was wearing sunglasses. Honestly, he looked a bit like a motorcycle gang leader.

"Who's the new dude?" BB asked.

The guy rounded on them, as a smirk spread across his face.

"Don't you know the next great super-villain when you see him?" he said. "I am the Generator! MUAHAHAHA!"

"Should we give the message to these so-called heroes?" said Lagnevar in a wicked voice.

"Well, that's what we're here for," said the Generator back, with an evil grin to match hers.

"What are you talking about, dude?" Beast Boy yelled incredulously.

"Well, perhaps if you prove yourselves worthy of our time- and our master's time- we'll tell you sorry excuses for heroes!"

"BRING IT ON!" bellowed Cy.

The two villains charged at the Teen Titans.

"TITANS, GO!" yelled Robin.

After a few moments of fierce, confused fighting (mostly involving Lagnevar's many clones) an elephant flew out of nowhere.

Literally, it was flying. It had little wings and everything. And there was a not-so-friendly-looking thing attached to its underside.

A bomb, counting down with seconds until its detonation.

Raven turned around as its giant shadow loomed over her. She didn't have time to protect herself. It landed on top of her.

There was a muffled explosion.

"RAVEN!" came the terrified voice of the green Titan.

Meanwhile, at the Tower…

Shadow and Nightmare had shown up, only a bit fashionably late. But they had been waiting on the roof for the past several minutes.

"So… you're sure that this is where we're supposed to be?" said Nightmare for the seventh time.

"I'm sure…" Shadow answered back for the seventh time.

"Where could they-?" Nightmare started, but she was cut off by the sound of an explosion coming from downtown. Muffled, but it was an explosion no less.

"Well, that could be it…" said N sarcastically.
"Let's go."

So they jumped into a portal conjured up by Shadow and were off to the scene of the crime.
