Raven: Shakes her head. "The Author does now own us, or most of the Z-Fighters, check Chapter 1 for details on which ones."
The next day, Kojiro started hunting the Shadow Demons early. Zanzokening from rooftop to rooftop, Kojiro started watching the entire city, determined to stop the Shadow Demons before they struck somewhere. On the other side of the city, another Shadow Demon clawed its' way out of a portal. It landed on all four feet and started sniffing the air. It howled one long howl and took off running towards the pier. It stopped by the water's edge and started changing for water exploration. Kojiro appeared just as the creature was jumping in. "What? A Shadow Beast? But I already killed Fang. The only Demons I should see are Spectre's Shadow Ninjas. What's going on?" Kojiro asked himself. He ran to the Ocean's edge and tried to see where the demon was going. "No good. I guess I'll have to follow it." Kojiro said to himself and took a deep breath. Since the Shadow Beast took on an aquatic form, it swam faster than Kojiro. That and the advantage of NOT having to breath, let it get away from Kojiro when he had to surface for air. "What is it doing underwater? I wasn't even near the water when It arrived." Kojiro said to himself and floated out of the water and powering up to dry himself off quickly.
Inside Titan Tower, the Robin and Cyborg were once again playing the Gamestation. Robin was two wins ahead of Cyborg on their racing game and Cyborg had finally caught up to him. "Alright, this one determines the champion." Robin proclaimed. As their race started, the screen changed to the emergency channel. Aqualad was looking nervous and worried as he glanced around while talking. "Aqualad calling the Teen Titans, is anyone there?" Aqualad said. "We're here, what's the Problem Aqualad?" Robin asked. "We've been invaded by some stange creatures, there's only five of them, but they're destroying our city. We're already lost most of our soldiers to these things. I've tried communicating with one, but I can't sense its' thoughts. We need help fast." Aqualad said "Hang on, we're on our way." Robin said and jumped off the couch and ran for the elevator. Cyborg relayed the message to the other three Titans and followed Robin.
"Do you think it's the Brotherhood of Evil again?" Beastboy asked. "Possibly, I can't think of anyone else who would know about Aqualad's home, let alone attack it." Robin said. "But Aqualad said they were only five creatures. The Brotherhood always used more bad guys to do their dirty work." Cyborg said. "We won't know until we get there, and we're almost there. " Robin said.
T-Sub passed over the last ridge and the Titans could only stare in horror at what was left of Atlantis. The buildings were in ruins, there were craters all across the ground, and the waters were now swimming with Sharks that smelled the blood in the water. "It might not be a good idea for you to go out there Beast Boy." Robin commented. "I noticed." Beast Boy said as a Shark swallowed a cloud of blood above his canopy.
"Over there, to the left." Raven said. The Titans looked in that direction to see Aqualad waving his arms to get their attention. Cyborg turned the Sub and piloted it to Aqualad. Aqualad pointed to a cave in the distance and started swimming. Cyborg followed Aqualad until they came up into an underwater cave and out of the water. "Thanks for coming guys." Aqualad said. "What happened?" Robin asked. "A few hours ago, A school of fish told me there was some new creatures in the sea. I thought I should lead them to Atlantis and teach them how to behave down here. But as soon as they got there, they started attacking. They tore through buildings and Atlantians alike with their teeth, and some of them were firing beams form their eyes. Our warriors tried to stop them, but it was a short fight. They were slaughtered." Aqualad said. "How many Survived?" Raven asked. "A good portion of the city evacuated in time and spread out. Apart from them, well, you can see." Aqualad said. "It's not safe down here. If they're as dangerous as you say, we should get out of the water and come up with a plan." Robin said. Aqualad sighed and nodded, "I want to help my people down here. But, I can't fight these things like I have." he said. "I'm sorry." Robin said and placed a hand on Aqualad's shoulder. "I know. Let's go." Aqualad said and started swimming to the surface.
Spectre: "Mwahahaha. I knew I could control Shadow Demons better than anyone else. This world will crumble before my power"
Beast Boy: "Dude, what do you want with a crubled world"
Spectre: "I...uh, I...well, okay then. I'll just keep you alive for my servants and take over your world"
Beast Boy: "Whatever dude. We will stop you."
