I don't own the Teen Titans, you know that. Anything that happens after # 36 in the real comic series needs to be ignored to fully enjoy what I've got here.

Chapter 2: Let's do the Time Warp again! Or not!

Sunday, 9:53 pm, Los Angeles

Robin hid in the shadows of a billboard, waiting for his target to show itself, he was supposed to have been halfway to Gotham by now, but this was too much of an opportunity to pass up. Then he came. Match shouldn't have been flying around L.A but he was much to Robin's delight. Tim didn't see any other members of Deathstroke's new Titans East, but that didn't mean they weren't there. That didn't matter though, if Tim could get even a little of Match's DNA, he could compare it to his own clone formula.

Robin lunged from his hiding place and onto the back of Match, Superboy's 'evil' clone. "What the hell?! Robin?! Looking to get your ass kicked?" Robin didn't have time to answer, he had to work fast. He stuck a syringe into the back of Match's neck and extracted a small amount of blood. "You're a friggen retard, and you're dead!" yelled the clone as he dove into a barrel-roll which threw Tim into an alleyway. "Suck on this, you cheap Bizarro wanna-be." said Robin as he launched green, kryptonite batarangs into Match's face. Tactical telekinesis prevented the missiles from hitting him, but the proximity to the kryptonite created the desired effect. Match fell to the ground, having a krypto-induced seizure. Robin got away with amazing speed, just fast enough to dodge any retaliation.

Back at the tower, the Batjet was waiting for him. "Look Bruce, I need to stay here, at least for tonight. The Titans need me to help figure out this whole Fearsome Five thing."

"That and you want to work on the clone program." Tim sighed, Bruce read him like a book, like he always did. "Yeah, and I want to work on Superboy. I just risked death so I could steal some of Match's blood, so yeah, I'm going to see if that will give Connor his powers again!" Batman's eyes widened. "Tim, that was way to dangerous, you should have told someone, hell, I would've helped you."

"No, you would've stopped me. Then I wouldn't have this." He took the syringe out of his belt, the blood swirling around. "I'll get to Gotham later."

Once in his room, Tim poured the blood into a vial, and then into a section of his computer. "Computer, process D.N.A sample." He said aloud. It wasn't the batcave, but his computer did come up pretty close to it as far as data analyzing. "Processing," Said a feminine voice "DNA belongs to the Superboy clone known as Match."

"Show DNA compared to Superboy clone program, provide missing meta-gene components." The computer's monitor popped up a ton of programs. "Task will take 3 hours." said the voice. "Just enough time." said Robin as he walked out.

Robin came into the main room, everyone else was already there. Talking about how they were going to get to the future. "The problem is," said Cyborg "we don't have the ability to travel through time so, obviously we will need to find someone who can, perhaps The Flash can somehow get us through the Speed For-"

Before Vic could finish, a portal opened up behind him. "Huh." said Spikestrip, "does this usually happen?"

"Unfortunately." said Ravager as she drew her knives. "One of us should stay to guard the tower." Spikestrip ran and jumped over the couch. "Got it!" he called from behind the make-shift barricade. With Rose stifling laughter, the other Titans went into the void.

Cassie bent down and threw up what felt to her like all the liquids in her body. Robin appeared out of the portal a few seconds later and did the same. "Okay, it was not that turbulent last time!" Cyborg was the only one not currently bent on the ground. "Probably because of the Legion Flight Rings, We had them on last time." He walked to the top of a small nearby hill "Guys, come take a look at this." The others joined Cyborg and saw the grisly scene around them. This place had been San Francisco, once.

The once cool city now looked like the Gobi Desert, all around there was nothing but sand and ruined buildings, even the Pacific Ocean was gone. "Oh my god, who could do this?" whispered Burn, tears welling up in his eyes.

Any response was halted by the sounds of explosions; the team leaped down into a ditch and looked madly around to see what was going on. "Look!" yelled Cassie and the crew turned to the east, a chase was going on, three figures were being hunted down by six others, and the first three weren't doing to good.

The team's faces turned to those of shock when they began to recognize the figures. The first three looked like older versions of Nightwing, Starfire, and, shocking Cassie the most, Superboy. "Oh my god," She whispered and it was all Robin and Cyborg could do the keep her from flying into the fray. What they saw next though, stopped all three.

"That's us." said Lakota. Cyborg turned and saw that Lakota had another charmed carving out, this one a glowing purple crystal. "The two up front are Tim and Ravager," Said Lakota, and Tim focused on the figures. A man and woman, Ravager seemed to have adopted her father's old costume and Tim looked a little like Deathstroke, only the costume was black, with a mask that was half dark-orange (before you ask, this has nothing to do with my 'Different Strokes' story, I just felt like making Robin into Slade).

"How many times are we going to dance this dance, my love?" asked Slade. "Just this one more time, baby!" said the future-Ravager, placing fresh shells into her shotgun. The future-Superboy yelled from across the rock "Dammit Tim! When the hell did you turn so evil?!" the future-robin laughed. "Call me Slade, Superior! We might as well refer to each other by title. And as for your question, I think it was about the time you let Ra's Al-Ghul kill Bruce, Selina, Jason, and Clark! I realized, this world, most importantly you need to be controlled. Shiva!" He yelled back at one of the others, an Indian woman, dressed as a Goddess.

"Shall we kill them slow or fast Ares?" The other woman, the splitting image of Cassie drew a battle-axe "As long as its painful, my dear."

The other two members came within seeing distance. One was a Native American, dressed in a Chief's outfit and seemingly very bored. He turned to the other, a robot made of the same design as Cyborg. "Android, help our compatriots end this squabble." The android began moving forward, its arms converting into energy cannons. "As you wish, Sitting Bull, I will terminate the required targets. Nightwing, we were once friends. If I was still human I would regret this."

And then all hell broke loose.

Starfire flew into the air, starbolts shooting left and right. Future-Cassie (Ares) flew into action, her axe deflecting the blasts of solar energy. She closed in, and swung; Starfire flew upward… and was incinerated by a massive beam of fire shot by Shiva. Cyborg's enhanced eye caught every detail, including the tears on Nightwing's face as he saw Starfire's charred remains fall to the earth.

"You evil, soulless monsters!" yelled Nightwing, who stood up from his crouch to throw small, marble-like grenades. Future-Ravager was sent flying but landed on her feet, Future-Cyborg (Android) saw the bomb at his feet and allowed it to blow up. The machine-man stepped through the smoke a moment later, unscratched. "You call us monsters, Knight Wing, that is hardly a proper title."Said Sitting Bull "If you'd like monsters, I'd be happy to get Lobo, Beelzebub, and Myth for you!"

Tim's sonar enhanced hearing let him hear every sound, including the whispered and panicked conversation of the two heroes. "

"I've got to do it Dick." Said Future-Connor (Superior) "It's the only way you can get to the titans from the past." Dick still seemed angry and heartbroken, but seemed to have the sense to keep in control "I know. You do it, and I'll get the young titans out of that ditch and to the camp." It surprised Tim to hear that the heroes form the future knew where they were, he just hoped the others hadn't seen them.

"Goodbye, my friend." Said Dick, and he broke into a run. Superior flew into the sky, dodging the attacks with amazing speed. "Remember when the Cain's found me Tim? Well, we never cold remove that gene-bomb he put in me, could we?"

Tim knew what was coming, and he couldn't bear to see his friend die yet again. The Titans stood in stunned silence, Cassie turned away, and Tim did to. And then knew only blackness.

That's all for now folks! The exciting (I hope you find this exciting) conclusion will be in the next chapter. P.S: To anyone who got confused from all the 'future-versions' of the characters I added, sorry. You won't need to worry because only a select few will even be seen again.
