Review responses:

The Hidden Girl: That is odd. I'm glad you liked my description of Red X without the mask though.

Green Gallant: Actually I was intending on having Jason Todd in this fic. Also Batman and a couple other heroes will be making appearances.

Thanks for Reviewing!

The First Act

A ten-year-old David Dick walked up the sidewalk to his home. He opened the door and yelled "Mom Dad I'm HO-"He stopped mid sentence when he saw what he was talking to. There was...

X-X-X-X-X-X

David woke up screaming. He quickly silenced himself and touched his face to make sure that this was real.

He got up and walked out of his bed room to his kitchen.

"It's time to plan my next heist"he said to himself bitterly.

He walked to his computer and proceeded to open the internet explorer. He had once heard a rumor about…

He shortly found what he was looking for.

A local company that ran countless homeless shelters and soup kitchens in the city often got very big donations.

Sound innocent doesn't it?

Well rumor had it that they took some of the money and put it to what the donation was originally intended for but the rest all went to the corrupt boss. Rumor also had it that this boss had an obsessive compulsive disorder which caused him to keep record of every dollar that ever went into the company.

It may have been the record he was after but if his money somehow disappeared then…

David smiled a mischievous smile.

Robin sat at the computer in his room typing furiously when he heard a knock on his door.

"It's open!" he yelled.

Starfire opened the door and looked around before asking "Robin, what are you doing?"

"I'm doing a little research."

"On what?"

"David Dick. There apparently is no criminal report on him, that said, I did find something interesting."

Now since Starfire had left the door open, the words echoed into the hall, which in turn amplified it, which in turn sent it out and into the very hall that Cyborg was walking down. Now Cyborg, having heard this, ran at speeds that he had not ran at before and got there just in time to ask: "What didja find!"

Robin and Starfire who thought that this was a private conversation physically jumped in surprise.

"Where did you come from!" Robin asked once his breathing went back to normal.

"The hall. Now tell me what did you find?" Cyborg said quite quickly.

"I found out why David Dick never had a home."

"Which is? Come on man don't leave me in suspense"

"He was adopted."

Cyborg grin stayed for a second before it faded and he asked "how does that have to do with it?"

Starfire, who was confused as well, asked "Yes, what does this 'adopted' have to do with the it?"

"Those adoptive parents were…" he paused for a second, thinking of how he would say this "brutally murdered. The neighbor called the cops once they heard David scream. When the cops had gotten there they found that he had fled and they found the bodies, or rather, parts of them."

Cyborg and Starfire were too stunned to say anything.

Cyborg finally said "Oh my god…….. Did they catch the killer?"

Robin nodded "They found him in the bathroom. He was laughing and talking to himself about how he killed them. His name was Jonathon Stacy."

Red X walked calmly through the halls of the 'charity' company building. He soon found what he was looking for.

A small personal safe that was in the boss's room.

The safe held several things: a large wad of cash Cha ching, car keys, and the records he was looking for.

The safe also held one thing that Red X didn't notice: a special silent alarm. When X opened the safe without both the key and the code (Red X only picked the lock) a special magnetic tripwire set off the silent alarm.

And Red X didn't even know.

When Red X left the office building via roof, he jumped from building top to building top.

About a block away he heard the oh so annoying voice of Robin.

"So you're robbing charities now huh X. That's a new low for you."

Red X sighed and prepared for a fight. "Come on Robin. I may be low but at least I'm not the one in the green tights and gay cape."

Robin's face went red with rage and X knew he struck a chord.

"Titans Go!" He yelled.

Starfire began the assault by shooting starbolts at X while Raven used her powers on a nearby crate. The crate flew right at Red X, but right before it would have made contact he blasted it with an X bomb engulfing him and the shards of the crate in smoke.

Starfire flew down by Robin. "Is it over?"

As if to answer that question two X's shot out of the smoke: One of them wrapped around Raven's mouth, the other wrapped around Starfire and Robin thus trapping them together.

X jumped out of the smoke and landed about three feat away from Robin and Starfire. "I'm curious. Are you two going out yet or is Robin still recovering from his break up with Batman?"

Beastboy broke out in laughter though he was quickly silenced with a look from Robin.

X jumped up to dodge a punch from a sneaking Cyborg. He flipped over him and landed on his back. There he planted an EMP X thus forcing Cyborg to shut down.

X then back flipped and landed behind Beastboy. Beastboy turned around and stumbled backwards in surprise. Once he was back far enough X shot him with an X. Now this was not any ordinary X. This X was made especially for Beastboy. It turned into a sticky goop that disallowed him the luxury of movement.

He stood back and admired his work for a second. Then he took out a camera and took a picture before teleporting another three blocks away.

Keith Andes was getting ready for bed. He was a Reporter and he had a reputation for never stretching the truth.

When he entered the room and got near the bed a voice startled him.

"I have something for you Keith."

Keith turned around and saw the infamous Red X standing in front of the door.

"I have some dirt on a local Charity organization redirecting funds to the company's top man. Interested?"
