When the Sun rises at 2:00 in the morning, it can never be good. For the Teen Titans, this rude awakening was all they needed. Slade and his robotic minions had been terrorising the citizens in the city, and only after an enormous amount of effort and Cyborg's batteries being depleted again, did they manage to force this particular villain into hiding again.

"What the…. gasp did I oversleep again" shouts a droopy eyed Beast Boy as he throws the covers of himself and attempts to put a sock on his right hand.
"Guys, I'm sooooo sorry I …. What the hell, 2:00" he exclaims as his unused alarm clock beeps sadly on his bedside table.
"ROBIN, STAR ! WHATS GOING ON ?"
"BEASTBOY ? On my home planet it is unusual for the sun to wake up this Early, is it broken ?" asks a yawning Starfire "YAAWWWNNNMMAYBE Cyborg could fix it ?"
"Star, this aint normal, where's Cyborg he might know what's goin' on?"

"TEAM, REPORT TO COMPUTER ROOM IMMEDIATLY" hums Robin's voice over the intercom system.

"Listen Team, as Cyborgs Batteries haven't fully recharged yet, we're going to have to go without him. I don't know what's going on, but we're going to find out." Robin announces to the awaiting Titans. "Cyborg's Computer however detects a massive energy reading that wasn't there last night; it's given me the coordinates so LET'S MOVE OUT ……. Beast boy, why is your sock on your hand?"

The Docks were in a huge commotion when the Titans arrived. Late night fishers sailed in defeated while early morning fishers scrambled to prepare their boats. Yet apart from the unusual early rising of the Sun, the Docks looked the same as the last time they had visited.

"Over there" Raven informs the Titans, as a cloaked hand points towards the shabbiest looking storage hanger: Hanger 16."I sense a massive power source of unrefined energy, but that means … ROBIN WAIT ! IT'S A TRAP!"

These words of warnings never reached Robin's ears, his hair windswept by the Sea breeze; he was already dangling below a chord of thick, medium weight nylon, which was rapidly coiling itself up into Robin's Grappling Hook, pulling him up fast. It took mere seconds to reach the roof of Hanger 16, and even less time to smash through the rotting, wooden roof tiles.

Shadows, were all that reached Robins eyes. Footsteps Echoed into the silent unknown. Chipped wood decayed peacefully in the corners, and the walls were long past their sell-by-dates. The only thing out of place was a small, blue and black, microchip.

"Microchip ?" Robin Pondered out loud. "Microchip, then THAT MEANS!"
"Put it away Robin," the mechanical voice echoed from the shadows as Robin instinctively drew out a minute beeping blue bomb, "you know you can't beat me…"
"Why, why are you doing this?"
"Sorry to wake you up so early Robin, but I had to draw you away somehow!" said the creature, aiming a cannon of pure blue plasma at Robin's heart.
"Cyborg NO !"
