The Phoenix landed off the shore of Jump city facing Titans Tower crushed state. The authors got out of the ship with sorrowful expression at the sight of the ruined base
'Man, it's worse seeing it in person' Soul grimaces
'Hey look on the bright side. At least it ain't our base that's been blown up. Right' WX said trying to cheer everyone up
'Not helping dude' Ross replies
'Alright, we need to split up and get this job done. Ross and Mantis go inform the cops we're here. TSS, Soul and Warlord search the ruins to find any survivors. I'm staying here' Ranger commanded
'Why you staying here? You're not just guarding the ship are you?' Mantis asked
'With the loads of villains in this town I ain't taking this ship out my sight. Now get going all of you' Ranger said as everyone left to their job

From a safe distance of the Authors 7 figures garbed in Zodiac styled cloaks and masks look down upon the Authors like hunters watched their prey
'There here everyone. It's time we put masters plan into action' a Spider masked Darkside said
'What were masters' orders exactly' an Eel masked Darkside asked
'He was direct on what we must do. Kill the Authors who head to Jump city and master will reward us all' a Mole masked Darkside told them. The fellow Darkside seemed pleased at this under their masks
'Man, so soon after we're born we already get to kill. Master is so gracious' a Cat masked Darkside said joyfully
'Indeed. Now split up to the teams and let's go' a Mantis masked Darkside said, and with that everyone jumped from their position and headed in different direction

Ross and Mantis walked down the street towards the police station to fill them in on the situation
'I think the police stations down here' Mantis said pointing down to the far end of the street
'Gotcha let's go' Ross said as he ran to the station followed by Mantis
When they got to the door Mantis opened it casually expecting a normal station
However upon opening the door nothing was normal
The whole entire room was covered with a white web like substance which stick to everything
Stuck to the walls were many cops with a small mask of the web covering their mouths. Their movements were still. They were dead
Mantis and Ross were in shock at what they saw 'W…what the…hell..' Mantis quivered
'I see you've seen my handy work then Authors' an evil voice said from behind them. They turned to see the Spider and Mantis masked Darksides behind them
'Handy work…you did this?' Ross asked on the verge of erupting with anger
'Indeed' The Spider Darkside boasted 'Quite disappointing though they were hardly a challenge. I hope you guys are different'
'You…YOU BASTARD!!' Ross shouted as he charged the Darksides. The Spider Darkside from under his cloak lashed a rope of web sticking to Ross thigh
'Fools rush in don't they?' Spider Darkside laughed as he swung the web around throwing Ross around too until Ross was smashed into a nearby building
'ROSS!!' Iron-Mantis shouted to his comrade before noticing that the Mantis Darkside had landed right next to him
'One down, one to go' Mantis Darkside boasted
'I'm gonna cut you to pieces!' Iron-Mantis roared as he swung his scythe downwards intending to cut him in half
However the slash didn't connect as in a flash the Mantis jumped straight into the air jumping several feet into the air more than physically possible
'Close one that was, but it's my turn now. KURO CERO' Mantis shouted as he fired a shot straight at Iron-Mantis who could not dodge in time and was shot staigt through the chest
Both Darksides relaxed as they looked at their handy work. Ross laid in the midst of the rubble while Iron-Mantis was on the ground in a pool of blood
'Heh, that was far too easy' The Spider Darkside laughed
Meanwhile…
On the Titans Island TSS and WX held devices which seemed to be identifying heat from under the rubble
'My scanner says there're four sources of heat under here. They seem alive, but for how long under this rubble is hard to tell' WX told them
'My scanners getting similar results too, and counting Robin over there that's all five Titans by the sounds of it. Okay Cowboy do your thing' TSS told Soul
'And it's about time too' Soul say happily as he started using his powers to levitate the rubble and find the Titans amongst it
Robin who was still unconscious had been moved away from the rubble to keep him safe was suddenly missing from where he had been left and Warlord noticed this
'Err Shadow…Where's Robin?' WX asked. TSS turned around shocked
'What? He was there a minute ago. What happened?'
'Hey guys, I found something weird, and when I say weird I mean the 'totally out of place' weird' Soul called out
TSS and WX ran to TL who was looking down a huge hole big enough for a person to go in and seemed to go on for miles
'Whoa, that's one big hole. Who made this?' WX asked
'That would be me gentlemen' a voice said from behind them. They turned to the voice and saw the Mole, Eel and Owl Darksides behind them
'Who the heck are you circus freaks' Soul said mockingly. Warlord however seemed to be shocked as he looked at his scanner
'Guys, the five body heats we detected are directly under those guys!!' WX explained
'That means these guys are holding them captive' TSS growled as he took out his Blacktail 9mm pistol 'Let them go or die!!'
'My my that one has a gun' the Owl Darkside said 'Though what are you gonna do if you are blind!!' suddenly the Owl charged at TSS and poked him straight in between his eyes
TSS fumbled back as if he'd been shot. However something completely different had happened
It was painfully clear to Shadow that his eyesight was completely gone!! The Owls touch had somehow took away his eyesight
'I…. I can't see!!' TSS shouted
'That's my little power of mine. It take away peoples eyesight and all they can see is darkness' the Owl laughed proudly
'Well you two seem like you can handle things here. I'll take my leave, and I'll bring these Titans with me' the Mole Darkside as he seemingly jumped down and in seconds dug a huge tunnel downwards
'DON'T YOU DARE THINK YOU'RE LEAVING WITH OUR FRIENDS!!' TL shouted as he ran down the tunnel following the Mole Darkside
'Soul wait it's a trap!!' WX called out. However out of nowhere the Eel Darkside almost slithered towards and upon closeness he somehow slimmed is body and wrapped it around WX
Warlord was left unable to as the Eel Darkside had wrapped it's whole body around him
'Why worry about you're friend when you should worry about yourself? Afoolish mistake as your necks gonna be crushed!' the Eel Darkside as he tightened his grip
It was only a few seconds later when everyone nearby heard a small 'click'. WX who had before been struggling to get out of the grip was now limp and his head seemed to hang, like his neck no longer had the strength to hold it
Most likely because it had just been broken…
Meanwhile……
Ranger24 walked around the Phoenix making sure it was safe. However upon his inspection he noticed something
Across the left side of the ship three huge scratches had been made, like a claw had ripped through it
'What the? That mark wasn't there before' Ranger remembered as he had recently repaired the phoenix to perfect shape
'Oh sorry don't you like it' a female voice said from a above Ranger. The girl jumped down from atop of the ship and with claws out was about to strike Ranger who only just rolled out the way
Ranger was then able to get a good look at the assailant who turned out to be the Cat Darkside, though Ranger had no idea who she was
'Oh what's the matter, gonna cry because I ruined your little ship. What a weakling' the Cat Darkside laughed. She then rushed at Ranger claw like hands out and ready to slash
When she swung Ranger did not move and took the attack without any sign of pain, though he no doubt felt pain. The Cat Darkside was shocked at this
'Listen here bitch. You can slash me to ribbons, rip out my intestines, and even set me on fire!! But when you damage MY ship. YOU HAVE A GODDAMN DEATHWISH!! Ranger shouted as in a quick second got out his sword and sliced the Cat right down the stomach. The cat Darkside fell back seemingly dead
'That'll teach you a lesson. Now I wonder if the others have got problems or not?' Ranger thought to himself
Ranger was deep in thought he did not notice the fact that the Cat Darkside had got back up and immediately slashed Ranger in the side of his right leg who was shocked at her reappearance
'How're you still alive? I killed you!!' Ranger demanded
'He he you did kill me Ranger, but you only killed me once. My name is Neko, the Cat Darkside, and my power grants me nine lifes' Neko said laughingly
'Darkside? You're a Darkside?' Ranger asked unbelievably
'Indeed I am. And you should worry less about your ship and more about your friends. Right now there are being attacked by my brothers. Are you scared Ranger' Neko asked while Rnager smiled
'Hardly. They may all be Bakas, but those guys are strong. They can look after themselves' Ranger told her
Meanwhile……
The Spider and Mantis Darkside looked at their fallen opponents
'Well that was disappointing. We might as well go' The Spider Darkside said to his brother. However as he walked off he suddenly came aware that his whole body was being levitated
'What the? Who's levitating me?' The Spider shouted out until he noticed that Ross was out of the rubble and was casting Psychic on him
'For those you killed. I'll make you pay!!' Ross proclaimed as he sent the Spider straight towards him and upon closeness Ross landed a hard punch in the chest sendin him flying into the nearest building
'Wow, you take your eyes off your opponent and look what happens Kumo. So shameful' the Mantis Darkside said
'You're on to talk' Iron-Mantis shouted from behind him as he slashed his scythe at the Darkside who jumped but was cut right down the right leg
'What? I sent a hole through your chest. How are you still alive?' the Mantis Darkside asked shocked. He then noticed that the hole he had made was slowly healing to its original state
'Unlucky for you asshole, you're dealing with a Regenerator' Iron-Manits told him
'A Regenerator? Well then you may be fun after all. Allow us to introduce ourselves. My Brother over there is Kumo the Spider Darkside and I am Kamakiri, the MAnits Darkside' Kamakiri told them
'Mantis huh? Well then I guess it's Mantis vs. Mantis' Iron-Mantis smiled at the thought
Meanwhile……
Back on Titans Island TSS was still blind and Warlord body as limp from his shattered neck
'Oh what's the matter? Can't fight without your sight? So pathetic!!' The Owl Darkside laughed mockingly. Suddenly out of nowhere a single bullet was shot at him missing him by a centimetre
TSS had shot the bullet and despite his inability to see he seemed happy
'You shouldn't be so mocking. I love to fight, and fighting with a disability makes your blood taste all so sweeter when I drink it from your rotting corpse!! TSS told him
'Yoiparri!!' the Eel darkside called out. However upon voice he notice that WX seemed to fade out of the Darksides grip like he was a shadow. WX then turned around and slashed the Darkside with his katana sending him back
'My grip!! But how?' the Eel asked shocked
'What? No way was I gonna go down easily slimy punk. You're going down' WX told him
'It seems you two are more of a challenge than we thought. In that case you deserve to know our names. I am Yoiparri the Owl Darkside, and my brother is Unagi the Eel Darkside, and today we will fufill our masters wishes, and kill all you authors!!' Yoiparri proclaimed
It is here that the Authors and the Manufactured Darksides meet for the first time
And it is here, where it truly begins….
