Cyborg entered the main room to find Sunburst floating back and forth, as if she was pacing.
"Cyborg! Have you located the signal?" Starfire asked, seeing her teammate.
"No, it wasn't active long enough, I'm sorry," Cyborg apologized, handing her the device. "I tried everything I could."
"Great, one of our teammates is somewhere in the world, and we have no clue where they are!" Chance gasped. "They could be in danger!"
"Dude, they're Teen Titans for a reason, I'm sure they can handle themselves," Beast boy told them.
"Beast Boy's right, surprisingly," Raven agreed. "They'll be able to handle themselves."
"Not when we're 20 years in the past and they don't recognize anything!" Chance replied.
"Chance, calm down," Sunburst ordered. "I'm sure Mariana is fine!"
"Who said I was only worried about her?" Chance blushed.
"Whatever," Sunburst muttered, rolling her eyes.
"I'll call Titans East, see if they've found anyone," Robin assured her, sitting at a computer. The screen came to life and Bumblebee appeared.
"Hey Robin, mind if I call you back? We're kind of in the middle of a fight," she requested. "Thanks!" She quickly hung up without waiting for a response.
"Alright, well, I guess we just wait for them to call us," Sunburst muttered.
It had been a few hours since the call to Titans East, and there was still no response.
"You don't think something could have happened to them, do you?" Chance asked.
"No, their communicators are still up and running," Robin answered. "This fight is either long or they have a busy day."
"Um…why do I feel like something bad is about to happen?" Beast Boy asked. A white portal opened above him and a red headed man fell out of it, landing on the green skinned teen. "Dude! I knew something was gonna happen!"
"Is that?" Chance gasped. The man sat up, hissing.
"Damn…why'd she have to do that?" Another man jumped out of the portal, landing beside Beast Boy. He helped the changeling up before helping the other man. Both men were quite muscular, but the second one was more lean and graceful.
"Because you pissed her off, that's why."
"Aqua-dude!" Beast Boy smiled at the second man. He had long black hair that reached his waist in a braid, which had a metal ring at the end. He wore a dark blue wetsuit with a white sash across his chest. Over the wetsuit and sash was a black trench coat that ended at his ankles.
"Garth!" Sunburst gasped, floating over to him.
"Did you piss of Raven again, Roy?" Chance smirked at the older red-head. Roy grumbled and pulled a red hood over the top half of his face, ending at his nose. His red coat reached his ankles. The top of it was zipped up to his neck, while the bottom part exposed his stomach. He had on spandex pants and dark red boots that covered his knees. Roy stood up angrily and patted off his outfit with gloved hands.
"That would be a yes," Garth sighed. "Roy was bugging her so much that she opened the portal under his feet."
"You were just as curious about the progress Sunburst was making," Roy retorted.
"Okay, you two can argue later," Sunburst sighed. "What are you guys doing here?"
"We wanted to see how much progress you've made," Garth answered.
"Yeah, he was worried sick about Marina Freccia," Roy nodded.
"Who?" Cyborg asked.
"Mariana," Garth answered. "Marina Freccia is her given name, but she prefers to go by Mariana. And you were more worried." Garth added under his breath.
"Why?" Starfire asked.
"I think she said it was embarrassing or something," Roy shrugged. "And I was not." he hissed at Garth. The computer beeped and Robin rushed to it, picking it up.
"Hey Robin, sorry for taking so long," Speedy said. "We have a little problem over here."
"What's wrong?" Robin asked.
"Well, long story short, good news is we found that black haired girl, bad news is, we were attacked when we returned to the city and-!"
"What happened to Mariana?" Garth asked, quickly pushing Robin away.
"Whoa," Speedy muttered, staring at him in shock. "Okay, it's nothing bad. We were attacked by someone and he hit Bumblebee, Mariana, Más and Menos with some sort of ray. They were turned into little kids. The twins are now two while Bumblebee and Mariana are seven and six. So umm…our young teammates are a problem," Speedy sighed. "Can you send Cyborg over to help fix them?"
"Sure, no problem," Cyborg nodded, walking into the screen. "I'll get there as soon as I can."
"Thank you," Speedy sighed; he looked away from the screen for a second before a look of horror flashed across his face. "KAREN! THAT IS NOT A TOY! PUT THOSE STINGERS DOWN!" The redhead shouted, before the connection was lost.
"So, Marina Freccia's now six?" Roy muttered.
"Seems like it," Sunburst nodded. "If Matt were here, he'd be able to reverse the effects pretty quickly; we've dealt with something similar before. This isn't the first time one of us has been turned into a kids."
"Technically, it is the first time," Chance corrected.
"Do you really want to be a smartass right now?" Sunburst muttered darkly, preparing a starbolt.
"Nevermind," Chance answered quickly, slowly ducking behind the couch.
"Good boy," Sunburst smirked, lowering her arms.
"I don't know whether to think he's whipped or pathetic," Roy muttered.
"I am neither!" Chance blushed. "I just prefer to keep my life! Sunburst is freaking scary when she's mad!"
"Don't you forget it," Sunburst ordered playfully.
"Mariana Freccia is six now," Roy repeated, looking at Garth.
"I know," Garth sighed, patting his shoulder.
"Alright, now, I better get going," Cyborg smiled.
"Uh, we're going with you," Sunburst told him angrily. "Mariana is our teammate; we're going to see her!"
"We're going as well," Garth told them. "We came here to see Mariana and check in on Sunburst's progress."
"I better go with you then," Raven sighed.
"Why?" Robin asked.
"Because, I did a little research on that spell Nightwing gave me," Raven answered. "You can go back in time, but if you stay for too long, you won't be able to go back. We don't want to risk them not going back. I'll gather the things needed for the spell and we can be off."
"While we're at it, I'll go gather my tools," Cyborg agreed.
