"Morning Cyborg."

Robin walked in the main room, feeling refreshed and smiling.

"Yo Robin, you look happy this morning!" Cyborg replied, flipping the egg on the pan.

"Finally getting a well deserved sleep can change your mind sometimes." Robin said, taking the seat, and waiting for his breakfast, "Where are the others?"

"Raven's in her room, she didn't want to be disturbed, as usual.. I wonder why though, she usually is the first one out of bed. Beast Boy, my guess is still snoozing. Danny, I haven't checked on him yet, but I'm making his breakfast and off to see him." Cyborg replied.

"What about Starfire?" Robin asked.

"Star.. uh.. I knocked but no one answered... maybe she overslept." Cyborg said uncertainly.

"Huh.. it isn't like Star to oversleep.. maybe I should check on her." Robin said, standing up, but Cyborg put him down quickly.

"NO! I mean, let the girl rest Robin."

"It's fine Cyborg, I'll just open the door and close it." Robin said, releasing himself from Cyborg's grip and walking calmly towards Starfire's room.

"The only day Robin chooses to act normal... well, let's hope it stays this way." He flipped the pan again and placed five eggs, each on its own white, small plate. Then got five glass cups, and poured in each orange juice. He then got a tiny white vase with a red rose in it, and placed it on the wooden tray, followed by one of the plates and one of the cups. He then added two slices of bacon, and two pieces of toast, and a knife and fork. He picked the small tray up, and walked towards the infirmary, smiling with pride of his designing and delicious work.


"Starfire?" Robin called softly, slowly knocking on the door. Receiving no answer, he smiled, expecting the girl to be asleep as his friend said. Loving instincts and curiosity kicked in, he always wanted to see her sleep, it made him feel happy and loved, then again, she always makes him feel happy and loved, but... she was too special for him. He pressed a button next to the door, as the door slowly began opening. Instead of finding candle lights, a tidy room, and a sleeping Starfire, he found something very much ironic.

The room was a wreck. Every glass broken, cloths thrown everywhere, curtains and bed torn, her make-up and beauty materials making the floor gooey, her mirror broken, and most of all, no sign of Starfire, no sign of life.

"Starfire?" Robin's shocked state managed to choke out. No answer. "S-Starfire?" He tried again, nothing. Robin collapsed on his knees, feeling that his body betrayed him. Suddenly, rage began building in him, as his sleeping hand turned into a fist, he found a pile of cloths right in front of him. He put his hands on it, and threw each and everything in front of him, even the poor little Silkie who was also looking for Starfire. "STARFIRE?!" Robin called loudly, finding nothing under the cloths, he stood up and ran towards the bed and threw the blanket away. Finding nothing, he opened the closet, and found nothing but torn boots, and what looked like an alien suitcase. "STARFIRE?!" He called once again, running around the room and looking everywhere. Failing once again, he sank to his knees again, and screamed as loud as his throat can manage. "STAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRFIIIIIIIIIIIREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!"


"Yo kid! Breakfast's ready!" Cyborg called, smiling widely and knocking on the infirmary door. He opened the door with excitement, not waiting for any answer. he put the tray on the table and got small medicines beside the tray. "Just to remind you you have to take 'em every mornin'!" Cyborg exclaimed again. Danny didn't answer him, and Cyborg found that rude.

"Kid, I know you can't talk and everything but the least you can do is wave." Cyborg said, feeling offended. "Come on kid! Don't make me remove that blanket off of you!" Danny didn't answer, he didn't even move. "You got it for yourself!"

Cyborg forcefully removed the blanket, and instead of finding the boy, he found a pile of pillows next to each other, making it seem like someone's under a blanket. "I knew him putting on a blanket when it's like one o five degrees out there was weird!" Cyborg shouted to himself, his playing face turning into a serious one. He pressed the emergency button, turning on the alert. Stepping forwards, he found something cracking, it was a shining familiar metal. He picked it up, and ran away as fast as he could.

Cyborg ran towards the main room, finding all the Titans minus Starfire there.

"Titans! Emergency! It's-" Cyborg began, but Beast Boy cut him off.

"This better be good, I was dreaming I was in tofu lan-"

"Starfire. She's missing." Robin said sternly.

"Danny isn't in the infirmary!" Cyborg added with worry.

"What?!" Everyone minus Cyborg exclaimed.

"I went to his room to give him his well-decorated breakfast when I found some pillows under a blanket!" He said quickly.

"Maybe he's.. in the bathroom?" Beastboy suggested.

"What about Starfire?" Raven asked.

"This isn't some coincidence, Starfire was kidnapped the same night as Danny got missing. Besides, Danny is in no shape to walk alone, he can't even move his hand without difficulty! There is some serious kidnapper here, and whatever plan they had, just earned themselves a serious world of pain!" Robin shouted, slamming his fists together.

"Robin, calm down, anger would not solve a thing. We need to calm down and think things through." Raven said.

"You're right Raven. Cyborg, check the security cameras." Robin ordered.

Cyborg typed on his right arm, and found nothing but black and white. "Nothing, everything was smashed at seven thirty."

"That's one hour before Starfire went to bed! It was planned!" Robin exclaimed.

"I can.. sniff it up for you.." Beast Boy suggested.

"You might want to sniff this." Cyborg said, taking out the metal he found in the infirmary. "I'm guessing this belongs to the person who kidnapped Dan and Star. I found it in the infirmary seconds after I realized Danny was gone."

"Nice work Cyborg." Robin congratulated.

Beast Boy shape-shifted into a dog and sniffed the shiny black metal. Woofing, he ran out of the door, picking something up.

"He found something! Titans go!" Robin cried, running after Beast Boy, soon followed by Cyborg and Raven.


Danny ran, ran as fast as he could, but it still wasn't fast enough. His state didn't help him accelerate much, neither was his thinking. All he was thinking about is getting out of there, no sort of plan, no comments, no nothing. He's been running for hours now, and even when he lost track of the robots, he didn't stop. Even though he knew nothing of the city, he still continued to search for an exit before it was too late.

Running in the middle of a street while a car was coming, the car beeped and the driver screamed, making Danny stop in shock. The driver started hitting the break, but it just would not stop in time. Reacting quickly, Danny jumped on top of the car, did a back flip, and landed safe and sound, but panting. The driver sighing with relief, he exited his car to yell at Danny but found nothing but a piece of bandage covered in blood. This concerned the man, so he took it and rushed to the police office, thinking that he's going to help Danny, but instead he's going for major trouble.

Danny ran and ran as he couldn't anymore, his body gave up, as he collapsed panting hard. He turned to his back, and opened his eyes to see the sun, maybe that would calm him down. Luckily he was away from the population, and behind him was the ocean, it was so peaceful here. But the tree was so familiar to him. He sat up, having trouble doing so and looked around him.

"I-I know this place.." He said to himself, his voice barely heard.

He looked backwards, only to find the Titans Tower right behind him. He face-palmed himself.

"I wasn't going forwards, I was going in circles. No wonder everything seemed familiar!"

Very annoyed, he finally gave up, as he jumped in the ocean swimming back to Titans Tower, and hoping they won't expect him back there.


"You will never get away with this! Robin is coming! And when he is here he will kick your sorry butts!" Starfire exclaimed, behind a shiny purple bar.

"Now now, the young miss beauty, I think we both started at the wrong foot." The shadowed figure said.

"Who are you?!" Star demanded.

"Who I am is not important. What I am going to do to you is what you should have asked."

"I ask whatever I please!" Star exclaimed. She blasted the prison bars with her energy beam, but instead of ripping a hole large enough for her to escape, it ricochet back and forth in the prison cell. She yelped as she dodged the blast, but in a matter of seconds it was behind her back, this time she had no time to react. She screamed as the fell harshly to the floor, but she still sat up and sighed.

"Uh uh uh, you should know better. This prison cell was specifically designed for any possible escape for you... and someone in mind." The shadowed figure teased.

"And who is this 'someone'?" Starfire demanded, looking around for any sort of thing that can help her escape.

"Well, my dear, let's just say him and I share a fine history." He chuckled.

Suddenly his watch beeped, as Slade was seen in there.

"Is the prisoner secure?" Slade asked.

"Don't worry, Slade. Everything is under control." He smiled, his fangs visible, "Now you must do your part, and lets not forget about the deal shall we?"

"Yes, sure. Our deal, when everything is settled your price shall be received. I mean, prize!" Slade quickly corrected himself.

"Yeah... sure."

"Just remember, no prisoner, no deal." Slade said.

"Yes yes of coarse." The video closed, "Or there will be a sudden change of events." He chuckled to himself.

"This is why I hate the evil! You can never make peace even when you need!" Starfire exclaimed.

"And how is that your business?!" He shouted at her.

"It is certainly my business because you have the KIDNAPPING OF ME!"

"My dear, you should really work on your grammar, perhaps a tutor?"

"UHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!" Starfire screamed in anger as she started punching the cell like crazy.


"Did you capture the prisoner?"

"No, sir, he managed to escape." One of the robots answered.

"Fools! I specifically included that this mission can't be failed! Well, if you want to do it right, do it yourself."

Slade turned around angrily as he marched away, collecting everything he needed.

"You will go again and distract him!" He ordered, opening the large screen. In it was Danny, finally making it to shore, and drying himself. "If you fail again, you will pay!"

All the robots nodded, before teleporting back to capture Danny.

Slade then smirked as he watched Danny try to catch his breath. The boy always seemed to amuse him. He's been awake and injured for a long while now, but he keeps on hoping and trying.

"Don't worry little birdie, the hunter is on his way!"


Danny finally made it to shore, but whatever energy he had left, was gone now. He collapsed right as he touched the ground. He laid there for who knows long, until he finally gathered enough energy to sit up.

"I'm never doing this again..." He said to himself. "...I miss my powers.."
