So here's chapter five, and I can't take credit for any of it because TheGreatReaper (Or Ruthless Rex) wrote this (He created Titan, who better to write this chapter) and did a great job.

Chapter Five: Titan
Cassie, Conner, and I returned from our mission, and walked into the main room. Mainly everybody was back from their missions, meaning we were moving farther up the line. Good.
"Here, take this to Nightwing," Conner said, handing me the hard drive.
I entered the hall, at the end of it was the war room. Before I reached the room, I heard arguing, so I stopped to listen.
"Look, I realize you're not going to stop until you get Damian's revenge, but..." It was Red.
"But what Tim? You just want to just call this off?" That was Nightwing retaliating. So that's Red's name.
"Not just that, but I don't trust Onyx. Someone who just knows our identities shouldn't be trusted as much as she is, if trusted at all."
"She's been a big help! I'm not making her leave."
"Well is either me or her!"
There was silence for a few minutes, I'm guessing they had a stare match, then Red stormed into the hallway, stomping past me. I walked into the war room, half glancing behind me.
"Don't mind him, he's just... difficult." Nightwing said, half paying attention.
"Here's the hard drive with the information on it." I said, handing him the hard drive.
"Thanks." He absently muttered.
I walked out of the war room and entered the main room. Everyone seemed to be utterly shocked about Red's leaving. Well, all of them except Conner, he just leaned against a wall expressionless.
I saw Camo sitting on a couch by herself, so I sat beside her.
"Hey, how you holding up?" She asked.
"Fine." I replied.
"Do you know why Red left? I saw you go in there..."
"He's still upset about Onyx. He didn't trust her, so he left."
"And know the Titan's have lost their leader. Is it just me, or is this team falling apart at the seams." She shook her head.
"That's definitely what it seems like." I added.
After a couple of minutes of silence, I went up to my room, thinking of everything that had happened lately. There was a knock on my door, it was Conner.
"Hey, Nightwing wants everyone in the main room for a briefing." He said.
"Okay." I replied, following him to the main room.
Hood and Nightwing stood in the middle of the main room, wainting as everyone quieted down.
"I know many of you have realized a sudden absence of Red Robin, it's because he left, but we will continue with the mission." Hood announced. Nightwing stepped up to the middle of the room, a hologram of a building appeared.
"Thanks to Alpha, we now have our next objective; take down a Meta Human facility set up by Talia." Nightwing said.
"This is a large facility, and it's important, so many guards are protecting the inside at all times." Nightwing continued.
"A couple guards versus all of us? Sounds easy to me." I replied.
"Only one problem Kyle, the guards are also Meta Humans." Nightwing said. This mission just got a lot more difficult.
"We're going to take them by storm, and while we do that, Nightwing will sneak in and hack their entire networks and mainframe, destroying the project. We leave tomorrow, so be ready." Hood finished, dismissing us.
I went to my room and sat on the edge of my bed and thought about all the possibilities that tomorrow could bring.
"Stop worrying so much, it'll be a piece of cake." I told myself.
I flopped onto my bed and drifted to sleep, where I would be greeted with reoccurring nightmares. They're the same every time, always flashbacks of The Culling horrible memories that repeat every time I fall to sleep.
"Kyle! Kyle, wake up!" It was Camo. I guess I was screaming again.
"Did I scream again?" I asked.
"You scream every night Kyle, are you sure you're alright?" She questioned.
"Y-yeah, I'm fine." I said.
We sat there for a couple of minutes, and she eventually left. I laid there for hours, and when it was around eight o'clock, I suited up and headed to the main room.
"Alright everyone, let's go." Nightwing said. He looked like he was going to enjoy this.
We arrived to the facility about thirty minuets later. I walked to Super Boy, who stood with his arms crossed.
"You ready?" I asked.
"As I'll ever be." He replied.
"Team, the mission is a go." Hood said over the comms. Show time.
Super Boy and I were the first to make contact with the facility, ripping through the doors like aluminum foil. We all charged in, taking out the first group of guards. I ran over and threw a guard across the room like a twig.
I saw Cassie slam into a group of three, flinging one with her lariat. I flew over to Hood, who was shooting guards. One of the guards seemed to be taking the onslaught like it was gnats messing with him.
He picked up a piece of the metal floor, throwing it at Hood. I flew as fast as I could to try and block it, but I wasn't fast enough. The metal sliced across his arm, and he fell to the ground with a yell.
I flew at the guard with a yell and slammed into him. He grabbed my fists and we sat there for a few seconds. He was almost as strong as me, but not quite. I slammed him into the ground and then threw him into the ceiling.
"Kyle!" Camo shouted.
"Huh?" I muttered, before being thrown into the wall.
I looked up, half dazed, and saw this huge, hairy guy with six eyes walking towards me. This guy had six arms, he used four to grab my arms and legs, and the other two to punch me. His punches felt like mini explosions to my torso.
All of a sudden, I fell to the ground. I looked up and saw Super Boy punching the hairy guy, so I took my chance and got up.
"You okay?" Camo asked, looking worried.
"Yeah, I'm good. Nothing broken." I said, flying back into battle.
I slammed into a guard, and then kicked another across the room. I saw Kid Flash fighting one of them, he looked to be a strong one. The guard caught KF off guard and slammed his elbow into his knee, the sound of bone breaking entered the room.
I flew at the guy and just started punching and punching. When I got tired, he didn't look like he'd be getting up.
"Dude, are you alright?" I asked, flying over to KF.
"Ah! My knee is broken! Does it look like I'm okay?" He replied, clenching his injured limb.
I picked him up, there were only a few guards left. Nightwing kicked open a door to the far left, taking out the rest of the guards with it.
"C'mon!" He shouted, running towards the exit.
I started flying, and Nightwing came up to Bart and I.
"What happened?" He asked.
"I was fighting this stronger guy, and he broke my knee. It'll be healed by tomorrow." KF answered.
Nightwing nodded and got on his cycle. I took flight and started heading 'home'. Well, as much of a home I've ever had.
Hope you enjoyed, and I will be going on vacation for two weeks starting Sunday so there won't be an update for a while, sorry. Favorite, Follow, Review, and Thanks!
