For the sake of not so long chapters (and to better make this feel like a show) I'm posting the Episodes in three parts. One, to add suspense between each chapter. Two, to practice evil cliffhangers. And three, so it feels more like an actual Teen Titans Episode with the commercial breaks. Yes, I'm evil. Enjoy!
Episode Two Summary: An old villain is out of prison, and his nefarious goal is the same as before. Only, it gets complicated when things don't go according to his plan. The Titans are set on bringing him down. So if he's going down, he'll settle for one he assumes to be the weakest willed of them all. Beast Boy.
Disclaimer for the rest of the story: If DC wants to take ideas for this for their Season Six, I won't mind. I won't mind one bit. It's all theirs.
The view showed the Jump City docks at night. Thick storm clouds were gathered up above, making it darker than usual. The docks were empty of people and noise. Everything appeared quiet at first...
A bright green light lit up part of the eastern dock.
The view changed to where the green light appeared. A dark hooded figure was running in long strides across an open part of the concrete dock. He was quick, almost silent as he ran.
Ksch! Ksch! Boom! Boom!
Two bright green starbolts hit the ground in front of the figure, forcing him to stop. He turned to run another direction, only Raven appeared silently from a dark portal in the ground in front of him. "Going somewhere?" She asked dryly.
The figure turned the opposite way, and Starfire landed lightly on the ground. Her hands and eyes glowed bright green with energy.
The figure chuckled between the two heroines. "Is that the best you can do?" He asked the orange Tamaranean. "I had wannabe failures in my school with better aim than you portrayed there-" The figure said, addressing Starfire.
Ksch!
A bright blue beam of sound hit the hooded figure in the side, sending him flying across the hard concrete. He landed on his hands and feet a good distance away. From the shadows, a smirking Cyborg appeared. With Robin and a green panther at his side.
"Man, I think age is really starting to dull your senses Blood." Cyborg said, sounding a little snarky.
The figure got up from off the ground, brushing off his shoulders. "Well, I guess there's no more need for sneaking around then if you already know who I am." The figure said.
The view moved to up above, showing a hooded coat being thrown up high. The view then moved back down below, showing a now normal looking Bro. Blood without his robotic enhancements. He was dressed in his lithe red fighting uniform, and the calm look on his face showed he was ready to fight.
Cyborg lost his smirk. "Wait, I thought you had robot parts now!" Cyborg yelled.
"Oh, don't worry, I still have 'robot parts' Cyborg." Bro. Blood said mockingly. "Mine just look more normal than what 'you' are currently using since I upgraded them." He finished tauntingly.
Cyborg snarled. "That's because I don't need outside help to look like a man!" Cyborg said, his fist turning into a sonic cannon again.
Bro. Blood's smirk fell off his face. "Alrighty then, I'd say it's time for your mid semester exams! I hope you studied for them!" Bro. Blood shouted, rushing forward to fight.
"Titans, go!" Robin yelled.
The Titans charged forward, ready for battle. The view paused in the middle, showing Bro. Blood on the right, and the Titans on the left.
Then the view went dark.

(Music Ends)...
The view showed a calm portion of the docks.
'Blood Control' appeared on the view in white letters, before slowly fading out.
The view changed. Showing a human fist.
Pow!
A big green grizzly bear was slammed back by the fist into Cyborg, launching the two of them back into the side of a warehouse. Bro. Blood grinned wickedly at his feat.
"You'll have to do better than that now!" He said, before he rolled to the side, dodging another green star bolt. He turned to face Starfire again, his hand changing into his own sonic cannon.
"So predictable." Bro. Blood said, before firing a red blast of sound at Starfire, which hit her square in the gut. She gasped in pain as she fell through the air, but she managed to stop herself before she hit the ground.
Boom!
A disk exploded to the side of Bro. Blood. He turned to see Robin running forward. His pole staff in one hand, and three yellow disks in the other. Robin threw all three at Bro. Blood. The view showed them spinning through the air towards him. The three disks looked like they were going to hit their target.
Slash!
Bro. Blood's left hand changed this time, and he sliced forward with five sharp claws. The view showed him in front of the disks, with the disks separating into three harmless pieces behind him.
He looked up at a surprised Robin. And he lifted his sonic cannon to fire again. "Did you really think that would work?" He asked.
Ksch!
This time Bro. Blood was hit on his arm by a bright green starbolt. He staggered in surprise from the hit.
Ksch! Ksch! Ksch! Ksch!
Bro. Blood jumped back from side to side. He somehow managed to lithely get through the barrage of starbolts thrown at him. The last one he backflipped over the explosion, and landed on his feet and one hand.
He stood up quickly, facing a now smirking Robin and Starfire. He looked down at his right hand, his sonic cannon smoked from where the first starbolt hit it. Bro. Blood smirked back, and he changed his right hand back to normal.
"I see your aim is finally seeing improvement." He said. The view showed a black portal open up behind him.
He suddenly turned around, gripping a surprised Raven around the neck as she appeared from the dark portal. "But your sneak tactics deserve an F-!" He yelled, before throwing Raven at Robin and Starfire. The two surprised Titans didn't move in time, and the three fell to the ground in a heap of limbs.
Bro. Blood focused on the three down heroes, grinning evilly. His eyes turned blood red. "And now, for my favorite part..."
...
He started to frown. "What?" He muttered. His frown turned into a grimace as he tried to focus.
Kschhh!
A beam of blue energy went over his shoulder, and he looked to his side. The red tint leaving his eyes. The view showed Cyborg, his sonic cannon out in front of him again. He was grinning.
"Yo! Am I interrupting classtime again old fart?" He asked as he fired again.
Ksch!
Bro. Blood was hit in the chest. Launching him back in the air into a pile of crates. He got up out of the wreckage.
"What did you do!?" Bro. Blood yelled, actually looking enraged at the turnaround.
"Oh, you know, I simply, evened the playing field." Cyborg said as he pointed to a device on his wrist.
The other three Titans got up off the ground, showing their right wrists. A small, wide, glowing blue metal bracelet that wasn't noticed before was on them. Cyborg appeared at their side.
"Just a little precaution I made in case you escaped your cell. It hides the mind of the wearer from telekinetics. I'd explain how it works to ya, but I'd rather just let this go with a simple... Booyah." Cyborg said.
Ksch! Ksch! Phoom!
He fired his sonic cannon again. Starfire unleashed her green eye beams. And Raven focused a stream of her dark ethereal energy. All three attacks combined as they headed towards Bro. Blood.
Ksch!
Bro. Blood quickly fired his red sonic cannon back from his left hand, hitting the three heroes combined attacks in the center. For a couple seconds, the attacks were at a stand still. Then blue, green, and black combined their might against red, slowly pushing back towards Bro. Blood. Bro. Blood strained as he tried to put more energy into his cannon, but his left sonic cannon was starting to smoke from overheating. And it seemed the energy coming towards him was greater than what he could summon when his right hand was kaput.
"Grrr..." He growled in frustration.
"Grrawrr..." A growl sounded behind him.
The frustrated look was replaced by an eerie calm. "Well if I can't have them, then I'll have to settle for the next runner up student." He said lowly. A green tiger appeared in the view behind him. A similar bracelet was also on it's front right paw. He turned his sonic cannon off, and faced the giant cat with a clawed left hand.
Without anymore resistance, the three blasts enveloped the area.
KaBoom!
The three beams of energy exploded drastically outwards. The Titans put their arms over their faces as the shockwave went over them, along with the smoke from the explosion. The view was encased in smoke for a moment...
Finally the view cleared a little bit, showing the outlines of the Titans walking forward through the smoke. Starfire had a fist up, bright green energy illuminating her immediate area. Cyborg had his shoulder light out, trying to pierce the smoke.
"Yo, anyone spotted Bro. Blood yet?" Cyborg asked.
"Nothing so far." Raven said blandly.
They walked a little bit closer into the view, and Starfire pointed. "I see the something!" She said. The Titans quickly moved in, the smoke cleared a little bit. A figure was lying on the ground next to the broken crates, groaning. The Titans got in defensive position, ready to start fighting again if needed. Then Cyborg's light finally fell on the figure on the ground. The view showed green skin.
The Titans stopped. "Beast Boy?" Robin asked.
Beast Boy groaned in pain again, unable to get up. Cyborg immediately ran forward, getting down next to his best friend. "Yo, you okay grassstain?" Cyborg asked. Beast Boy didn't respond. Upclose, he didn't look all that hurt from the combined blast. He looked more like he was on the verge of consciousness.
"Whoa." Raven said dryly.
"Where did the villain Blood go?" Starfire asked.
The smoke finally cleared up, and the view showed the Titans looking around the empty dock. There was no sign of Bro. Blood anywhere. It was just the calm of the dark night around them, and the lapping of the bays waters on the docks of Jump City.
"He got away." Robin said frowning.
Cyborg quietly helped Beast Boy up off the ground, and Raven used her powers to make a stretcher for Beast Boy. Once he was situated, the team started to walk away from the area.
The view moved up above, showing the stars in the sky.
The view lowered down again, showing the outside of the lit up T-Tower. The night sky was still visible up above...
The view changed, showing the inside of the Infirmary. Raven's hands were over Beast Boy's arm, her light blue healing powers encircling it. Cyborg was on the other side, finishing up his scans of his best friend. Beast Boy was quietly observing his arm as Raven healed it. Starfire and Robin were in the back. Starfire watching anxiously, while Robin stood frowning.
A sick looking Adam was also in the second bed, dead asleep to the world. He looked almost recovered from his close encounter with the pudding of friendship from weeks ago.
After a second, Raven finally, withdrew her hands from Beast Boy's arm. Her glowing blue healing powers disappeared. "Done." She muttered.
Cyborg nodded his head approvingly. "Yep, I can't find anything else over here on my scans either. At least nothing that wasn't wrong with the grasseater before." Cyborg said, smirking a little bit at the end.
Beast Boy glared up at that. "Hey, now what was wrong with me before Rust Bucket!?" He asked indignantly.
"Let's see, your skin color, your face, your ears." Cyborg started to list jokingly.
"The dumb jokes. The lack of personal space." Raven added dryly.
Beast Boy pouted as he sat up on the bed. "You dudes are all just jealous since all those things like, enhance my character." Beast Boy said with a tint of pride.
"Right. I almost forgot your lack of grammar skills." Raven drawled sarcastically. Cyborg had to suppress a chuckle on the other side.
Beast Boy chuckled at Raven's comment. "Knew I could count on you to prick my ego Rae." He said lightheartedly. Raven didn't visually react to his comment.
"Beast Boy, do you know what happened to Bro. Blood?" Robin asked at last.
The good mood in the room died quicker than Hillary Clinton's election party.
Beast Boy shrugged. "Beats me dude. I just remember waiting for an oppurtunity to pounce for him, and then seeing your attacks come out of no where. I didn't see what happened after that." Beast Boy said.
Robin was still frowning. "You were up close to him, how could you not see what happened to him?" He asked.
Beast Boy frowned for only a second, and then he chuckled to himself. "Sorry, I guess when I saw the bright light, I thought I was dying." Beast Boy joked lightly.
Robin sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose. "Okay, we'll just have to wait until he resurfaces again to find him. Just pay a little more attention next time please Beast Boy." Robin asked him with a tone that had 'why me' in the background of it.
Beast Boy grinned wider. "Alright, I'll sleep on it tonight and let you know if anything comes to mind. Good night dudes!" Beast Boy said, before quickly walking out of the Infirmary.
Raven shrugged. "For once, I'll say he had a good idea." She blandly said, as she tiredly floated out of the Infirmary after him. Starfire also floated out, looking a little tired too.
Robin stood in his spot a moment more, then sighed again. He looked over to Adam, then back to Cyborg. "How much longer do you think he'll be like this?" He asked.
Cyborg quickly looked at the screen next to his bed. "I think our zombie friend will be strong enough to walk next morning." Cyborg said jokingly.
Robin nodded, suddenly looking really tired. "Alright, I'm going to rest then. Make sure he at least gets up tomorrow morning. I want to test his capabilities soon." Robin said, leaving the room.
"Sure thing Rob." Cyborg said. The view panned out.
The view showed darkness.
(Door sliding sound)
A door slid open in the wall, and Beast Boy walked into his room. A wide grin was on his face. "Oh how I've been waiting for this moment." He said, eyeing his bunk bed across from him like it was... maybe in Beast Boy's case, a giant tofu wrapped tofu dog.
He morphed into a cat, and stretched himself out on the ground. Putting his legs far in front of him, and arching his back. "Meow... Meow..." He meowed.
After a few seconds, he straightened and ran across the junk in his room. From the stained pizza boxes and comic books, to the dust bunnies and dust behemoths on top of who knows what. When he was close, he made a mighty leap from a pile of laundry up onto his top bunk, setting down lightly in the middle of his pillow.
"Mmmm..." The green cat purred as it circled around itself, pluffing up it's pillow with it's paws. Then the cat morphed into Beast Boy, who pulled his blanket up over his body. "Here's to the end of another great day." He said, ready to drift off into sleep...
...
"You know it was all your fault."
Beast Boy sat up straight, looking around his room. "What? Who's there?" He asked. He morphed into a cat again, looking around at the dark room. His cat eye view didn't spot anything though, unless the pile of junk in the corner had talked. With all the species of bugs unknown to scientists living in it, it very well could have.
The cat morphed back into Beast Boy again. "Hmm, that's odd." He said, laying back down and closing his eyes. "Probably just a figment of my-" He was saying.
"It's all your fault he got away."
Beast Boy sat up again, and he beaned his head on the ceiling this time. He groaned and held his throbbing forehead before looking around himself. "Wait, what? Whose there?" He asked confusedly.
"You heard me. Garfield." The voice said tauntingly.
Beast Boy stiffened. "My, what a pathetic name. For such a pathetic creature." The voice said.
"Where are you?" Beast Boy growled out while looking around himself.
"Why I'm in your mind silly. How else would I know your real name without you seeing me?"
Beast Boy looked around again, trying to spot the person who sounded to be right next to him. The view showed portions of the room as he looked. No one was in sight.
Beast Boy put his hands over his ears. "Nope, I'm just going to go to sleep." He said, morphing into a cat again. He curled up to sleep on his pillow.
"Oh, but you're not going to sleep Garfield. Not when ther's so much for us to discover. Together." The voice said mockingly in his mind.
The cat stiffened again.
"Muwhahahahaha." The voice chuckled. The view zoomed out into darkness.
Yes, I'm that evil that I'm cutting it off there. We'll see how long it is until the next part is posted. Hopefully before Friday. I'm cruising the Carribbean for Spring Break.
Till Next Time
