Titan's Universe

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

A green bloodhound sniffed around the school grounds. The dog started to run in a straight line, only to stop. The dog started to search the ground again, sniffing around.

Robin jogged up. "Beastboy. Find anything?"

The bloodhound transformed into Beastboy. "No. There are some nasty chemical smells all over here."

Robin said, "We have to head back to the tower."

Beastboy muttered, "You go back. I'm staying here."

Robin explained, "No Beastboy. We may have a major fight when Raven re-opens the gate. You're coming."

Starfire flew down from above and hovered next to them.

Beastboy groused, "Dude! I can't stop searching with Terra being in Slade's hands. I Can't!"

Starfire tried to interrupt, "Friends-"

Robin got a little louder, "Beastboy. We are all needed. Once we done at the gate, we'll come back here."

Starfire tried to interrupt again, louder, "Friends-"

Beastboy got frustrated. "DUDE! I CAN'T LEAVE!"

Starfire grabbed a shoulder of each teenage boy and yelled, "FRIENDS!"

Robin looked calmly with concerned at Starfire and asked, "Starfire? Is there a problem?"

Beastboy complained in a calm voice, "Yeah, what is your problem?"

Starfire looked a little embarrassed. "May I make a suggestion, friends?"

Robin nodded and Beastboy said, "Yeah, sure."

Starfire smiled. "My suggestion is that we now help our new friends at the gate, then we bring them here to assist us in the search for Friend Terra. I will assist you, Beastboy, in asking them for their assistance. I am sure Friends Other Robin Person, Koriand'r and Jinxie will come at my request. You, Friend Beastboy, can ask the Other Terra Person."

Beastboy frowned and asked, "Can't you ask her, yourself?"

"She is friendlier with you, Beastboy, than she is with me. Her powers would be most helpful."

Beastboy looked downwards, "Ok. I'll go with you."

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

On Teen Titan Island, at the obstacle course control platform, stood three people: Raven, Cyborg and Jinx.

Cyborg pointed at one set of controls and said to Jinx, "And this controls the assaults disc launchers. They fire two-foot wide discs. And this group controls the blaster. Got it, Jinx?"

Jinx nodded, "Yeah."

Raven said neutrally, "And don't shoot me."

Jinx said, "Ha, Ha, and HA! Very funny."

Raven continued, "Just don't use your powers around the gate."

Jinx said, "I heard it. I heard it."

A streak went across the field.

Cyborg said, "Looks like KF is here and searching for us."

Jinx said, "Don't worry. He'll find us-"

Kid Flash finished the statement, "in a second. Hi guys. Hellooo Beautiful."

He is holding a long gold foil box, wrapped in a ribbon.

Jinx asked, "What's that?"

Kid Flash held it out to her, "Well, I don't know. Why don't you take it?"

Excitedly she took the box and opened it. Inside were five red roses.

Jinx said, "Oh, beautiful. Why are there five of them?"

Kid Flash said with a half smile, "Five days until your birthday."

With a free arm, she hugged Kid Flash. Kid Flash planted a kiss on her cheek.

Jinx blushing asked, "What about one for my lips?"

Kid Flash smiled wider. "We'll save that one for your birthday."

Raven blushed, looking away and Cyborg looked uncomfortable. Jinx laughed and hugged Kid Flash again.

Kid Flash looked over to Cyborg and Raven and said, "You're both invited to the party since it going to be held at your place."

Cyborg said, "Of course we come. I'll do some barbequing."

Raven had a small smile and said, "I'll attend."

Then Raven asked, "Wouldn't Jinxie's birthday be on the same day?"

Jinx released Kid Flash and then turned to Raven. He got a sneaky smile and said, "Yes, it would be. How about a surprise birthday party for Jinxie?"

Raven said, "I don't do sneaky."

Cyborg laughed, "I like it: a surprise birthday party for the both of you. Who will tell the others and arrange it?"

Jinx smile got even wider, "I will."

Raven said, "I got a bad feeling about this."

Cyborg joked, "Bad, but good."

Raven said, "Time to go down to summoning area."

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

Starfire, carrying Robin, flew in. Beastboy, in hawk form, followed. They landed upon obstacle course next to Raven, Kid Flash, Cyborg and Jinx.

As Beastboy turned to human form, he said, "Hurry up and open that gate thingie."

Raven said, "They haven't asked us to, yet."

Beastboy complained, "Then what are we doing here, then? We should be searching for Terra."

Robin said sharply, "Beastboy, We have only twenty seconds from when they call until they arrive. We'll wait here."

Beastboy grumbled and sat down.

Kid Flash asked, "Hey Robin. Do you have eighty dollars?"

Robin absently mindedly handed him the money.

Jinx said quickly, "Kid Flash, please put these roses in my room, too?"

Kid Flash said, "Sure."

Kid Flash vanished with the roses in a streak.

Robin asked, "Too? What did you mean by the word 'too'?"

Jinx said, "I think he was also making a run for food."

Robin got angry. "Not now! Of all times to leave, this is NOT the time."

Beastboy asked, "Can I go, too?"

Robin snapped, "NO!"

"Dude, I was just asking. You don't have to bite my head off."

Robin muttered.

A beeping noise was sounded from Cyborg's left arm. He examined a small screen on the back on that arm.

He puzzled, "That's strange. There are no small civilian boats north of the island… Normally there should be several small craft out there. I think the radar being jammed."

Robin frowned and then said, "Raven and Starfire, stay here. Rest of you will come with me."

Robin and his group ran toward to north end of the end of the island.

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

Just off the island's north shore, a yacht was anchored. Upon the beach's sands a group was spreading out. Twelve of them were Slade-bots. They were dressed in black full body suits and wore metallic gray armor over parts of their bodies. Each had the black face coverings had an orange circle painted between the eyes.

The other two persons of the group were Slade and Terra. Terra's wrists had handcuffs on them and Slade held the back of her neck. Her left side of face has some blood on it and was getting redder by the second.

Slade said, "Now my dear. Don't try to run again. I'll miss you company and you'll have another accident."

Over the top of a nearby dune came ran Robin, Beastboy, Cyborg and Jinx.

Robin yelled, "Slade" at the same time Beastboy yelled, "Terra!"

Slade brought his other hand to the side of Terra's face.

Robin slowed to a stop. "Titans, stop."

As they came to a stop, Beastboy angrily said, "Why aren't we attacking him."

Robin said back, "He can snap her neck before we get to him. Hold still for now, Beastboy."

As the Slade-bot assumed defensive positions, Slade said, "Greetings, Titans. Nice of you to invite me here."

Shaking in anger, Beastboy demanded, "Let her go!"

Robin said, "Beastboy, hold still. Slade, what to mean by saying that you were invited here?"

Slade said, "My dear Robin. You use poor little Terra as bait to bring me here. I admire your cold-bloodedness in your use of the traitor Terra to lure me here."

Terra gave Robin an accusing look. "You used me…"

Beastboy said, "What? What did you do, Robin?"

Robin said with exasperation, "I did nothing. What are you talking about, Slade?"

Slade evenly said, "Oh, how about a holographic image of Terra flying around your tower with Beastboy."

Robin looked at Beastboy as Beastboy strained to remember.

Beastboy said, "Oh. That flight. It wasn't Terra… Well it was and it wasn't… How do I explain it? I… I screwed up, didn't I, Robin?"

Slade said, "See Terra. Your former friends don't have an excuse for endangering your pathetic life. And you betrayed me for their pretended friendship? You're such a little fool."

Terra glared at Beastboy as tears rolled down her cheeks.

Robin yelled out, "That is not true!"

Slade said, "My dear Robin, we both know your words are untrue. Now the Terra's usefulness is at an end, it's time to remove her from this stage."

His free hand reached down to Terra's shoulder while his other hand still held the back of her neck. He said, "Terra, it's time to say goodbye to the Titans."

Robin and Beastboy yelled, "No!"

The yellow streak of Kid Flash zipped by in front of Slade. Terra has vanished from Slade's grip. Instead, Slade found out that he we holding a plastic package of instant ramen in his hand.

Slade crushed the ramen and let it fall to the ground.

Robin yelled out, "Titans, Go!"

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

Kid Flash lowered Terra along with two bags of groceries down to the floor of the obstacle course's control platform.

Staring with disbelief, Terra asked, "Who are you?"

Kid Flash pinched the handcuff's chain between his thumb and forefinger. "Oh, you're the other Terra. I'm the faster boy in the world: Kid Flash."

Rubbing a chain link between his fingers, Kid Flash heated it up until it broke.

Terra asked quietly, "Other Terra?"

"Yeah. Can't explain. You got to help us, Ok?"

Terra said, "Terra is dead. I have no powers."

"Ok. Talk with you later. Got to go. Got Villains to fight. Be back for dinner. Make sure you don't burn anything when you cook it."

And he was gone.

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

Robin sprang forward as Cyborg and Jinx unleashed their blasts. Cyborg hit one dead on as Jinx's blasts disrupted the ground under some of the Slade-bot's feet, throwing off most of their aims.

Beastboy transformed into his huge man-beast form and charged at Slade.

Robin was in the middle of Slade-bots' crossfire and was forced to dodge, somersault, and flip to avoid their laser-blasts.

Beastboy just jump over the firefight and swiped a clawed hand at Slade.

Robin yelled, "No Beastboy. Slade is mine!"

Beastboy ignored him, and swung with berserk anger at Slade. Slade parried twice Beastboy's claws before performing a jumping kick with both feet at Beast Boy. They hit. Beastboy was pushed back a few feet, but he only became angrier.

Robin switched his attention to the Slade-bots. Cyborg and Jinx had downed two. A blast from one sent Jinx flying backwards with a groan.

Robin threw three discs. The discs exploded into smoke screen, blinded seven of them.

Robin didn't need to see them, just feel their presence. He started him attack with his staff.

Cyborg dodged as two of the Slade-bots physical attack him. Cyborg was slower than his opponent, but he was better armored. One kick Cyborg in the side and the other just missed the head with a punch. The assault continued as Cyborg got only a few light hits on the Slade-bots.

Cyborg frowned then smiled. The next kick in Cyborg's side hit was followed by the other Slade-bot punching toward Cyborg's head. Cyborg didn't dodge the punch; he allowed it to hit. The Cyborg timed the punch and grabbed the punching arm. He twisted the arm causing it to shatter into metallic parts.

Jinx, who was flying backward, flipped and twisted, before she landed on her feet. One Slade-bot charged her. She fired off two pink cursed blasts. One missed; the other impacted on the robots chest.

The Slade-bot shook as sparks arced across its chest. Another two cursed blasts finished it off. Then Jinx took aim a Slade-bot coming out of Robin's smokescreen.

Beastboy was swinging his claws and he was always charging at Slade. Slade was forced continuously backwards. Then a third of Slade's staff was sheared off.

Slade turned the now ragged end of the metal staff and plunged into Beastboy's shoulder.

Beastboy didn't notice the wound as his clawed swipe removed Slade's mask, revealing circuitry behind the mask. It was another Slade-bot.

Beastboy howled at the sky and then sunk his fangs into the Slade-bot.

Robin, in the smoke, stopped, concentrated to detect the presence of the Slade-bots. He then threw three discs. Three explosions occurred. Robin moved on looking for more targets.

All of their communicator sounded the emergency alarm.

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

Slade was really on the south end of the island. With him were forty Slade-bots.

He removed a headphone/microphone combination from his head.

He mused out aloud, "So much for the northern diversion."

He advanced toward the obstacle course. Before him the grounds were covered with a strange black script. Toward the far end, Raven and Starfire stood. Both of them had noticed Slade's crew and Starfire's glowing green eyes showed that she was powered up.

Slade walked forward and stopped before entering the scripted area.

He said, "Hello, ladies. Miss me?"

Raven hissed, "Slade!"

Starfire added, "You have best retreat while you can, villain."

Slade said, "And miss the trap that your team set up for me?"

Starfire looked confused as Raven said, "There's no traps set for you."

Slade said, "Let's put what you say to a test."

Ten of the Slade-bots advanced onto the script-covered area.

Raven eyes suddenly looked unfocused and then she said to Starfire, "I must create the gate now. Cover for me.

As Starfire nodded, Raven chanted, "Azarath".

Slade said, "Fire."

Raven continued, "Metrion".

A yellow streak, called Kid Flash, ran through the Slade-bot group, striking at as many Slade-bot gun-carrying hands at he can. He threw off most of their aims.

Five red laser bolts fired at Raven as Starfire stepped in the way and was hits by the bolts. Starfire fell.

Raven shouted out, "ZINTHOS!"

The black script started to leak blackness into the air.

Raven kneeled, and hid amongst the rising black wisps.

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

Terra looked over the top of the obstacle course's control panel and down onto the field below. The field was covered with growing branches of darkness. And they move towards a central location.

Raven was leaning over Starfire, her hands pressed upon Starfire's shoulder and stomach. Both were hidden within the moving black masses from their opponents.

Also visible, Terra can see Slade's small army. A quick yellow streak caused Terra to turn her head. Kid Flash was now knelt next to Starfire.

Terra looked at the control panels and she reached down and activated each obstacle course control panel.

She looked up the black masses started to form into a large disc.

Slade's army advanced toward the disc, firing at it. Starfire, Raven and Kid Flash were nowhere to be seen. As she watched, a rip appeared in the disc.

As Slade's army arrived at the disc, the rip widened and the disc became a ring: a gate.

Energy bolts came out of the ring and Slade army returned fire. Some of Slade's army disappeared by charging through the gate. Raven-like beings wearing red cloaks flew out over their head.

Terra sighed, "Re-enforcements have arrived."

The battle between the two groups had begun.

Terra used the control panel to aim the two-foot diameter disc launchers.

Terra quieter said, "This time, you'll stay dead, Slade."

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

Robin's group ran toward the obstacle course.

Beastboy, in giant man-beast form, pulled out the remains of the staff that was embedded in his shoulder. Blood pour down his fur. He didn't slow down.

Kid Flash zipped up and ran with them. He said, "Starfire is down. Raven has her in the tower. Raven will be back shortly. A bunch of goons are just over the dune."

As Robin crested the dune, he stopped to look at the melee. "What the hell?"

Cyborg said, "Whoever they are, it doesn't matter. We still have the other titans coming through the gate any second now."

Robin nodded and said, "Titan, Go!"

Jinx said, "He sure does like saying that, doesn't he?"

One of the disc launchers popped out of the ground and started to fire at some unengaged Slade-bots.

Out of the gate, a missile came flying. It impacted in the hillside just fifty yards from the control platform.

Cyborg yelled, "Hey, that was one of my missiles.

Terra re-aimed the disc launcher and fired. The two disc projectiles threw through the gate.

Then a burning T-Car came flipping, end over end, out of the gate.

Kid Flash accelerated in front of the charging Titans and ran up to the T-Car as it came to a rest on it roof. Fire licked up around the car. Kori kicked out a rear car door.

Kid Flash pulled a dazed Richard out of the car as Kori pulled Victor out. In two seconds, Kid Flash carried Richard away from the battle area and returned.

In another six seconds, he had Tara, Jinxie and Mikron moved out near Richard.

As Kori got Victor halfway to Richard's group, the car blew up.

Kid Flash ran back to the battle.

Robin assaulted a Slade-bot, and then narrowly dodged an energy blast from a Raven-like being. Cyborg and Jinx joined in on either side of Robin. Beastboy just plowed into them.

Kid Flash formed up a small tornado, lifting fifteen of the combatants.

Karen, the other dimension's Bumblebee flew out of the gate. She was firing at the Slade-bots.

Kid Flash yelled up at her, "Hey Bumblebee, both of the Slade-bots and Red Raven Clones are bad guys."

Kid Flash dodged another attack from a Raven-like being, but he didn't dodge the surprise attack from Karen. Another blast from a Slade-bot hit him. He fell.

Karen said, "Those are not Red Raven Clones. They are Phoenix-bots."

Karen eyes then glowed red as she tapped into the power she hated so much: the power of Trigon. Immediately she was covered with a fiery field. She then shrunk to bug size.

Richard charged to the battle with Jinxie and Mikron, with spider-legged backpack, in tow.

Above them flew Kori and Tara.

Raven appeared a short distances from the combat and chanted, "Azarath Metrion ZINTHOS!"

Terra stopped firing the disc launcher and stared at the combat. On the aiming control display screen, she spotted Tara and had the launcher lock on to her. Tara was displaying the use of the earth-based powers that Terra used to have.

Terra growled, "You have ruined my life! I was happy at school and you had ruined it!"

As she reached toward the fire button, a brief appearance of Slade flashed on by.

Terra said, "Slade, you're are so dead."

Jinx fought her across the battleground toward where Kid Flash fell. Horror crossed her face as she saw Slade standing next to Kid Flash.

Jinx yelled out, "Slade!"

Slade glanced at Jinx just before a two-foot in diameter disc plowed into him. He was thrown backwards and out through the gate.

Kori threw her energy bolts at Karen. One glanced off Karen's fiery field. Karen fired back with Kori dodging.

Mikron shouted, "The snot green Beast is Here!"

Jinxie responded, "He's not the Beast, so don't blast him or Raven. Ok?"

Mikron asked in shock, "What?"

The gate started to shrink. Two huge red claws reached out of and around the edges of the gate's ring and held it open.

Two streams of darkness reached out of Raven and toward the gate. The ends of the streams became huge claws that grabbed the edges of the gate and tried to forces it closed.

As Raven and Phoenix wrestle with the gate, Raven changed into her giant black bird form.

Karen spotted Raven and started to dive toward her. A rock wall flew up into the air, controlled by the will of Tara. A surprised Karen couldn't dodge it. She was smashed into it and was stunned. Kori energy bolts then poured into Karen. Karen fell.

Terra still tried to aim the disc launcher at Tara when she saw a huge burning bird like shape through the gate.

She fired the disc after disc into Phoenix until Phoenix released the gate.

The gate shrunk and vanished.
