Chapter 23 everyone, I hope that you all enjoyed the Hellboy referenced chapter, now I know a lot of you want me to continue writing and continue doing the teen titan episodes right? Well relax I will, but I'd also like to add in other elements from what this story is crossed over with.

Now without further ado, lets continue on.

Big shout out to Pyrojack who helped me finally finish with this chapter that was a bit difficult to do, it was only certain spots that prevented me from updating this story for so long. Yes I realize how many months it's been since this thing was last updated 😒😝

I do apologize, but hope you all enjoy reading this chapter, even though it's a bit shorter than usual.

Also if you'd be kind enough leave a review. Thank you.

Chapter 23

Unearthed

As of right now we cut to what appeared to be the entrance to an old abandoned mine that was outside of Jump City right specifically the desert area.

Inside the abandoned mine, the echoing sound of pickaxes were heard.

The small aliens of red and black color, they were short, possibly, three to four feet tall and pretty thin in stature. They have bulbous gray and yellow eyes with rectangular pupils and had large teeth.

They were all picking and drilling at clusters of yellow crystals. One thing was for sure, this was massive operation. Dozens of workers were running back and forth, some were carrying the crystals by hand, bringing them to mine carts. While others were surveying the area watching a large mobile drill roll out towards a wall. The metal part of the vehicle rotated as it began to dig through the rock and dirt with a light shining above the vehicle. However, before it could go any further a loud scrapping sound was heard.

Immediately one of the workers made a series a clicking and loud noise with its large teeth waving its arms. Immediately the drill stopped and backed away.

A loud gruff voice was then heard. "What's the hold up?" They all turned to the source of the voice. It was a male Detrovite. The alien had orange skin, a large jaw with his teeth fused to his lips. He also has two brown horns extending downward from his jaw. He was wearing a large red suit metal suits with spikes on his shoulders, neckline and some on his knuckles.

This was the Pickaxe aliens' boss, this was Vulkanus. "We've got to mine all of these crystals and get out of here. So why are we wasting time?" The worker talking to him pointed up towards what appeared to be part of a ship that was entombed in the rocks. "So, what if there's old tech on this rock? We got buyers waiting for all this. So, get to work clearing this out!" He turns around and walks away. "I don't care how long it takes just get it done!"

Uknown to them something had emerged from an opening through the ship itself, as for what the figure was. It was a large, tall brutish looking alien that almost resembled a troll with light green skin and solid white eyes.

...v...o...v...

A little while later, the workers and Vulcanus had managed to clear the debris around the buried ship. However, there were problems. The material used for the ship was strong. Strong enough to dent up the drill itself rendering it useless.

So, they had to revert to bringing in some heavier equipment until the drill could be repaired. But their tools were barely breaking through. So much so they had to throw aside broken equipment aside and tossed them away using new ones despite knowing what the end results would be.

While they were doing this, the troll looking alien was hiding behind a large rock, watching them work. Its eyes landed on a red capsule like device with a metal cable, on its sides were glowing pulsating circles emitting a humming noise. Whatever it was, the green giant was entranced by it and grabbed it with both hands tearing it off the console and snapping the cable.

When it happened, all the equipment and the lights shut off. Vulkanus noticed this. "Dammit, Power Cuppling just went bad were gonna have to get a new one." One of Vulkanus's minions made a clicking noise. What he said, pissed off and displeased the larger alien greatly. "What do you mean missing!?"

Uknown to them something had emerged from an opening through the ship itself escaping out through the mine. In the distance the green creature saw the old railway used to transport carts through the desert collapsing underneath its weight going down. Upon landing a large cloud of dust was made, it didn't show any signs of slowing down as it ran towards the city carrying the cuppling as it went.

At the same time we see a small white car driving through the desert exiting Jump City. It was a typical small family, a husband and with two kids, a son and a daughter. They were just minding their own business until the green creature walked onto the road. Naturally they were startled, the father slammed onto the brakes nearly swerving off in the process.

Much to their fears and misfortune whatever was there, began to walk towards them. "C'mon let's go!" He tried to start the car, but it wouldn't budge. While he desperately kept trying to start the engine the green creature grabbed the side of the car and yanked off the trailer attached to it, pushing the car away. The family was so terrified and shocked that they didn't even look back, they just drove off.

As for the creature it lifted up the trailer looking at the contents. All that was in there were boxes and other pieces of luggage. It turned the trailer over dumping it all out. Letting it drop back to the ground, it tossed the power cuppling into the trailer.

Then it began to pull the trailer behind it like it was a wagon heading straight towards the city.

A small amount of time went by and now the trailer wagon was full of random things like a bunch of signs. Now the green creature was looking up at a traffic light, it looked to be fascinated by the glowing red light. It reached up towards the machine causing it to wiggle through the air. The creature grabbed the traffic light tearing off the cable that was attached to it.

The end result made the red light dim off; it got angry slamming the traffic light down before stomping on it in anger before moving on.

Afterwards we change the scenery to show Raven hovering through the air with her legs crossed with the recently wrecked traffic light floating with her.

From behind, the other Titans were in the T Car while Robin was on his bike and Starfire was in the air.

"Raven, are we getting close!?" Shane inquired.

"I believe so." She replied back. "Whatever it was, I think it's close by."

"Uh, you said that like two hours ago." Beast Boy groaned from his spot in the back seat.

"Well, you're not the one who has to focus and concentrate at the same time." The goth mage shot back.

"Just let her do her thing BB come on." Terra said to the green changeling.

"Well come don't you guys' think we're just going on a wild goose chase? No pun intended." The green changeling said.

"I feel ya, but don't forget we had someone file a report where a small family had a run with some kind of large green monster thing." Cyborg noted. "Not to mention it wrecking stuff up."

"Be as it may, we have to know exactly what we're dealing with." Robin said. "We were lucky no one got hurt, but that can quickly change."

"Perhaps, their is a motive for why it is doing it?" Starfire questioned.

"Maybe, but we'll have to find out." Robin said seeing her point before Raven stopped in which they did. "Raven, do you have something?"

"Yeah, it's really close..." They suddenly heard a bunch of noise on the side. "Over there." The team looked over and saw the green troll like alien stopping in front of a cactus. It seemed to be curious to know what the plant was but didn't know how prickly it was grabbing it. Naturally it retracted back its hand howling out in pain before grabbing the cactus and started eating it?

The same reaction before, only it gagged a bit spitting the plant out. "Not really bright..." Beast Boy noted as he got out of the T car and as they watched the alien take out the power coupling.

"So, we gonna say hello?" Cyborg inquired.

"Yeah..." Robin replied disembarking off his bike rushing towards it with Cyborg, Beast Boy and Shane in tow. "Stop right there!" The alien turned over to the approaching males. "Drop whatever you have and put your-" Robin got caught off and couldn't finish because the creature had thrown the piece of machinery directly at them.

Quickly the boys moved out of the way to avoid the object.

"To be fair, you did tell him to drop it." Cyborg said sarcastically as they watched the green troll walk past them picking up looking relieved that it was undamaged.

"What is that thing anyways?" Beast Boy raised an eyebrow in confusion.

"I don't know...Hey Rook!"

"Yes!?" His fellow plumber replied back still with the others on the side.

"Run a couple of scans on it, while we keep it busy!"

"Will do!" He started to get to work. "That piece of machinery it has, I believe it's part of a power source!"

The omnitrix wielder hummed at what he said before walking over to the trailer with Beast Boy both of them peaking inside to see all the random objects inside. "What's the deal with all of this junk? He trying to build something?"

"Nah, I don't think so..." Shane replied, while grabbing a pair of beads this grabbed the large green brutes attention and charged at him.

"Look out!" Beast Boy cried out and just in the nick of time he and Shane rolled out of the way avoiding getting clobbered in the process.

"Listen, we don't want to hurt you. Drop it and give yourself up!" Robin said to the brute but instead it roared in response. Doing his thing, the boy wonder ran forward and did a jump kick landing one on it's face making it stumble back. He tried going for another but was slammed away rolling across the ground.

From the Beast Boy turned into a buffalo and charged, only he got grabbed by the horns and was sent flying into a rock nearby. Seeing no alternative, Shane activated the omnitrix scrolling through before making his choice and transformed into Humungosaur.

The sudden appearance of the Vaxasaurian took their green opponent by surprise especially since he was big as it was. Despite this, the creature charged forward lifting Humungosaur up into the air ensnaring it into a strong hold. Despite its strength, Humungosaur was still taller and had more leverage, so he smacked both sides of its head making the creature stumble back not wasting the chance he went for a right hook.

The creature skidded across the ground for a bit and started to cry clutching its head? "Huh? Ok, that rarely happens..." Humungosaur commented and watched as it picked up a little crystal. Immediately it was fascinated by how shiny it was.

"Look, whatever your is, give up now..." Robin said trying to get its attention, but it wouldn't listen. So, he smacked the crystal out of its hands. "I'm talking to you!" He did get its attention, he pissed it off slamming both fists onto the ground going to grab him. Robin however jumped up from behind and kicked it in the back making the creature get to Beast Boy who had turned into a bigfoot. However, the changeling was easily pushed away but wasn't able to react fast enough for one of Cyborgs mean right hooks finally joining in the fight.

The green alien then started to run off. "You're not going anywhere!" Humungosaur said as he went after it, not realizing that the green creature had taken the guard railing of the street. It literally used it to wrap around the transformed teen like a rope. "Huh, smart, not enough though." The vaxasaurian said as he increased in size breaking through his restraints surprising the creature and scared it off.

Just as it could go any farther, three large rocks shot out of the ground blocking its path.

"Ok, I think that's enough now!" Terra said now joining in.

"Yes, we don't wish to fight anymore..." Starfire said from in the air reading her starbolts watching as their blonde teammate walked up to the creature. For some odd reason it started to calm down and smile at the geokinetic who returned the smile in response.

From the sidelines Rook's scanning process had just finished when he did, see the results he was shocked. He knew the others had to know this.

"So, is that like a signal for saying I give up?" Beast Boy questioned in confusion.

"Guys, I think were ok now..." Terra said to her teammates but didn't expect to be picked up by the creature who laughed happily.

"Terra! Put her down!" Naturally worried for his crush Beast Boy turned into a gorilla charging forward only to be stopped by Starfire.

"Wait! It is not trying to hurt her!" Starfire said blocking their way. "It is, just curious..."

Robin watched the way it was acting and saw that she was right. "Everyone, stand down! She's right, it's not even trying to hurt her at all."

"Well, can it let me down!?" Terra inquired.

"Maybe you should try telling it yourself." Humungosaur said shrugging his shoulders now feeling lost by how this whole thing was going.

Terra looked to the creature glaring at it. "Put me down! Now!" The creature listened putting her back down to the ground. "Thanks." She stepped back a couple of feet watching as it reached out towards her. "You know...I might not be right on this, but...I think it's just a baby."

"Say what?" Cyborg questioned trying to be sure he heard this right. "Seriously?"

"No, she's right." Rook finally stepped forward looking at the results of his scanner. "Despite its appearance, this alien is just a infant."

They watched as the creature was now chewing on the power coupling drooling a bit.

"Oh crap...I can't believe I hit a baby..." Humungosaur said now feeling a bit guilty as he reverted back to Shane. "No wonder it was acting like that...That little cart was just it's belongings and all the random stuff it stole around town, it's not trying to make anything from them at all."

"No, she's not." Terra shook her head. "She just thinks there all toys, look." Everyone watched as the large infant took what it had and spun it on the ground like a top. It was happy by this result clapping away.

"What makes you say it's a girl?" Cyborg asked the geokinetic.

"Yeah, because, if it was, wouldn't it have like a big bow or something?" Beast Boy added gesturing to his head.

"Womans intuition." The blonde replied.

"And she is right..." Rook chimed in making her smirk. "It is a girl."

"I do not understand, if it really is a baby, why is it by itself?" Starfire questioned in confusion. "Especially for one so young?"

"That is a good question." Raven said as they watched the 'baby' stack up some rocks laughing happily clapping its hand before trying to stack another on top. "Shouldn't it parents be around?"

"Yes, they should...But there's a problem to this..." Rook looked at his Omni Tool scrolling through all the information he'd just found. "This species of alien isn't native to the milky way at all. She's a long way from her native planet."

"And we don't know how she got here either." Robin chimed in. "The parents shouldn't be too far off; they'd have to be somewhere."

"I agree with what you are saying, but its pretty common sense her folks not to let her wander off to far." Cyborg added his line of thinking. "Because, if not and they left the kid here. That'd be pretty messed up."

"We shouldn't jump to that conclusion right now." Raven advised. "There's still a good possibility of her parents being on Earth."

"So, what are we supposed to do in the meantime? Babysit?" Beast Boy questioned as they saw the large green infant playing in the sand.

"I don't think we really have any choice right now." Terra answered. "I mean we can't just leave her out here in the desert. She needs our help."

"So, unless we want a big baby causing trouble in broad daylight, we'll need to give her shelter." Shane trailed off briefly. "And, maybe, baby proof a few places."

"Only place big enough for her in the tower would be in the garage." Cyborg went into thought. "But there's a lot of equipment down there, I don't think that'd be a good idea."

"I second that." Rook chimed in and right then they heard the sound of an engine? The team looked over and saw a large cloud of dust moving in the distance straight towards them. It was a rather large squared shaped red armored vehicle. "That vehicle isn't normal on Earth, is it?"

"No, it's not..." Robin said as they watched the vehicle stop, a hatch opened up from the back and emerging from it was an entire massive horde of pickaxe aliens.

"And I doubt they're here for girl scout cookies." The alien hero easily guessed. Based on the way they click and point to the giant baby.

Activating the omnitrix Shane made his choice slamming down onto the core changing into Buzzshock. "Whatever she has, there after issued out the order. "Titans go!"

The pickaxe aliens charged clicking angrily as they started to fight with the team. Robin took out one of his metal staffs and started hitting any that came near him and blocking any incoming attacks from their tools/weapons which easily destroyed the boy wonders weapon much to his surprise. So, he switched to using kicks and jumped into the air throwing a few smoke pellets down which he used to his advantage taking them out one at a time swiftly.

Nearby Beast Boy had turned into an elephant bashing through them like they were bowling pins. However, a few of them jumped onto the green changeling and started hitting him with their pickaxes. The larger mammal trumped in pain before changing into a sasquatch shaking them off before jumping switching to a hummingbird taking to the sky before changing into an Apatosaurus. The Pickaxe aliens emitted panicked clicks trying to run as fast their little legs could take them. However, a few were sent flying from the force of the green dinosaurs landing.

Cyborg grunted throwing punches left and right knocking any who came at him. But one of them hopped onto him and picked at his right shoulder denting the blue clear part of his armor. "Hey, watch the paint job!"

From behind the little bugger got zapped off by Buzzshock. "Are you crazy!? You could've fried me!"

"You're welcome!" The omnitrix wielder replied back before zooming through the horde.

A group of these creatures tried to attack Rook with his Proto-tool armed and ready. One of them takes a swing with his pickaxe, but the Plumber bashed it's face in with the butt of its rifle form. It staggered but not before being hit by its taser function, knocking it down. A couple others tried to attack him from behind only to be hit by the same 50,000-volt shots.

From the sky Starfire was bombarding them with her starbolts taking out many of them in the process. But inspite of the numbers she was scratching, there were many more who took their places. Raven herself was also making use of the combat lessons she's been taking using her powers to block and counterattack before prepping herself.

"Azarath Metrion...Zinthos!" Black energy erupted from her.

The approaching Pickaxe aliens were blown away giving her some free space to roam and continued to get into the fight using her abilities to throw a rock over to Terra who used her geokinesis to take control of it and hurled the rock towards a small group of the little tycks.

They all tried to scurry away, with only a few managing to avoid the rubble. While a handful weren't so lucky to escape from getting crushed.

"Of course, from behind more snuck up behind her turning around she made the ground beneath them roll back burying them. "Hey Shane!? Is it a bad time to ask how I'm doing!?" The blonde questioned as she kicked a pickaxe alien away.

"A lot better actually!" Buzzshock replied as he dodged and zapped a pickaxe alien. "Way better!"

"You think so!?" She asked before punching another away. "Because I think I'm starting to get the hang of this!"

"Yeah, you're doing great." He nodded, avoiding another pickaxe and casually touches the metal with spectacular results. "You got this, Terra." Shane commended as the fried red and black alien collapsed from the pain.

While they were fighting and getting occupied a few of the pickaxe aliens looked over the infant who was watching the fighting in front of her thinking it was like a game clapping her hands. The miners start to go after her and the green giant decided that she wanted to play with them too.

During the midst of the fightin Brook had his proto tool in tonfa form and while knocking a few away he saw what was happening. "They're going after the infant!"

They indeed were doing so, however the baby kicks one of them a few feet up, crashing into another group of miners. The other two tried to retaliate only to picked up and clapped together. Growing bored of them she puts them down.

One of the aliens threw their pickaxes at the infant. The weapon/tool bounced off. She turned around and growled in anger before grabbing the fool by the face and tossed it away like it was football.

"Note to self, don't make the baby angry." Beast Boy stated. He then ducks under a miner, morphing into a donkey a kicked it in the jaw, knocking the alien flat on its back.

"Yeah, how about picking someone your own size literally!" Buzzshock yelled as he rained down electricity down on the horde.

The pickaxe aliens made more clicks and sounds before long each one of them began to make a run for it back to their vehicle taking all of their friends before driving off leaving the titans in the dust.

"Yeah, that's right! Run!" Cyborg whooped.

"Whoo! That's right! Titans 1 ugly little aliens zero!" Beast Boy cheered turning into a rooster and made a few caws.

"We better get moving..." Buzzshock said before turning back to Shane. "They'll be back and, in more numbers, than before."

"What do you mean by that?" Starfire inquired as she landed back to the ground.

"It just so happens; I've fought those chumps before..."

"Uh hold on...time out..." Beast Boy spoke up making the hand signal. "You know those little alien dwarves?"

"Yeah, a bunch of grunts working for the world's tallest midget in the galaxy."

We now change to an old warehouse at the edge of city where the team decided it'd be best to regroup and think of their next move. That and according to Rook Tiny's species couldn't see very well during daylight hours.

"What can tell us about those things?" Robin inquired as Shane was looking through the plumbers' criminal record data base.

"Not very much...But I know there boss..." He replied back before finding who he was looking for. "This guy..." We see a photo of Vulkanus's mug shot. "His name is Vulkanus. He might be a brute, however he's pretty smart half the time at least. First time I had a fight with him, he almost made a weapon strong enough to destroy with Element X."

"Element X?" Beast Boy was confused. Rook did the explaining.

"It's a very rare material, when combined with Bicenthium Alloy. Another name for iron ore, i5 creates an explosive powerful enough to obliterate an entire solar system as Shane said. At one point it was very common, and you could obtain on planet Thalassia."

"Was?" Starfire tilted her head in confusion.

"The planet was destroyed, and now since it's destruction, the Element X has become so rare these days. Because of there destructive capabilities, many desire to acquire them." Rook glanced over to Shane. "Do you think that's why he came back to Earth?"

"Nah, I don't so...Vulkanus always looks for the opportunities for a big pay day. Most don't know this, but earth has more minerals than they realize. Most of them are here because they were planted by those who visited this world way before when."

"Ok, so another big bad guy you know, but how does he tie in with Tiny?" Cyborg questioned.

"I don't know." He admitted. "But it might have something to do with what she might've taken."

From behind they heard Tiny's cries the large baby was throwing a temper tantrum crying, throwing empty crates and boxes around everywhere. "You're turn..." Beast Boy said looking over to Terra.

"Wasn't it Star's?"

"No...it is yours now..." Starfire clarified.

"Why me?" The blonde wondered.

"You're the one who wanted to help her." Raven reminded her teammate.

"She is right you know." Shane added backing the goth mage up.

"And therefore, your responsibility." Robin hammered in the final nail. Terra sighed knowing they were right and walked over to the large infant. While approaching Tiny she lifted up the T Car and started biting at the front of it much to Cyborgs dismay.

"Yo! Hey! Stop!" He yelled in horror.

"Hey, spit it out. You have no idea where it's been." The Markovian told the baby sternly.

Tiny didn't seem to listen as it finished what she was doing. Cyborg rushed over to see the damage and much to his horror, his baby had a big bite mark, a large chunk taken out from the front body. The larger infant belched much to Cyborg's irritation.

"Ok...someone please take me and my baby away...Because I don't' want to hit something innocent..." Rook took the objective and lead him away.

"Hey, don't be like that, she's just a baby, she didn't know." Terra said to the metal teen.

"Yeah, Cy relax I can have Jury Rig fix it later." Shane backed her up. "But we do need to get Tiny back to where she belongs, and we have to find her parents to do so."

"Not to mention we're gonna be stuck with her until nightfall." Robin spoke up. "Those aliens saw us with her, so they'll be going after not just us but her as well. Taking her outside, she's only a big target."

"So, what can we do?" Beast Boy inquired. "If they're coming after us. We'll need to move around again."

Rook made a suggestion. "For right I suggest we remain here until nightfall. But a few of us should go out and check the perimeter scout ahead and see if Vulcanus's minions are still looking for us."

"That's probably what we should do. When night fall hits, we'll have Tiny lead us back to where her parents can be." Shane suggested and looked over to see Terra rubbing the side of the large green infant's head.

Shane smiled seeing the kindness their most recent addition was doing. "She'll be safer their Terra, I promise."

"Yeah..." They all watched Tiny take her 'rattle' and used it slam onto the top of Cyborgs car much to his dismay.

"Nooooo!" The metal teen cried comedic tears Shane sighed knowing he'd had to do as told Cyborg once this was over.

After hours night had now fallen, and the team followed Tiny to where she came from. Returning back to the old abandoned mine where she had awoken. Right by the cave entrance they peered through to see a few pickaxe aliens standing guard clicking to one another talking.

"Something tells me this is the place." Raven commented stating the obvious.

"Alright, lets m-" Robin was cut off because Tiny took the more direct approach charging at them swinging her toy around like a club knocking them around with ease one by one.

"Or we just do that..." Beast Boy commented blinking in surprise as they went up to her.

"That had to hurt too." Cyborg added. Tiny pointed forward and the team followed her inside of the mine. Everywhere there were different minerals many of the team didn't recognize not to mention the whole entire horde of pickaxe aliens they fought before were there and there was much more than the team realized.

Up ahead they saw Tiny's ship and a few feet away from it was a high-grade laser with Vulkanus standing right next to it.

The alien operating it clicked to its boss. "Good, about time. We've already had delays; we need to finish cleaning out this mine then were out of here."

As the team was about to intervene Tiny made her way around Terra noticed this. "Guys, stay here and guard it, I'm going in with her." She followed the infant.

"Be careful!" Beast Boy whispered.

Terra caught up with Tiny stepping inside of the ship. Looking around she didn't see her, so the geokinetic ran forward before pausing hearing a noise. Going to the right she found Tiny in a room littered with toys she had found.

Signs, traffic lights, even little bicycles. In the middle she saw three large pods, one of which had a big hole in it.

"I get it now..." Tera just now realized what was going on. "These are your parents they? Yeah...You were inside that pod, but your parents are still in there's..."

Suddenly the two of them felt the ship shake. The reason for that was because outside a few of the pickaxe aliens had taken some of the rocks off the ship covering the doors clearing the way for the laser.

"Good now charge that thing up!"

"Hey Vulkanus!" Shane called out getting the larger alien's attention "Long time no see!"

"Oh no, it's you!"

"Gee, that's rude, what'd I ever do to you?"

"You wrecked the last couple of businesses I had in mind."

"Any I could remember?"

"Too damn many!" Vulkanus replied back. "I got locked up in the Null Void because of you!"

"Well maybe you should've mess with things that can blow an entire solar system, I wouldn't have too!" The omnitrix wielder replied back. "You need a better profession than just this!"

"Been there, done that, doesn't pay as well." The mountain of a man stated. "So, if I were you, I'd get lost. You and your ugly friends."

"Spandex isn't a good look."

"Were ugly?" Beast Boy took offense to that. "What about you?"

"Someone with enough toys to make a man like me rich!" Vulkanus answered. "Now as much as I'd like to chat, I've got work to do."

"Not if we have anything to say about it." Robin shot back.

"Put your hands up where we can see them, put them behind your head and give yourself up!"

The larger alien chuckled in amusement. "Ok, ok sure. I'm gonna put my hands...on my head..." He does just that. "Like this?" He suddenly pulls out a large energy cannon and open fires upon the team.

The teen quickly scattered avoiding the blast. "Get that laser running now!" Vulkanus commanded. "Rest of you, what you standing around for? Get them!"

"Titans Go!" Robin gave the order.

Each member ran off along with Shane who tinkered around with the Omnitrix along the way. "Alright, come on just give me something I can work with!" He slammed down the core and his transformation went underway.

Right then something came speeding through the pickaxe aliens. It was a yellow sphere with black outlines looking almost akin to a rollypolly. After speeding through, it undid itself to reveal one of Shane's newly acquired aliens.

It was a hulking, yellow eyed, broad-shouldered alien with sharp teeth covered in natural, yellow armor plating on his back, shoulders, and the backs of his arms. He is mostly white with black on his upper half and has four claws on both of his hands, having a color scheme and claws similar to that of a panda. It is covered in fur across the thickest parts of his body, while every other part except for his elbows and knees is short fur. Lastly the omnitrix symbol is located on its forehead.

Looking at himself the omnitrix wielder was surprised. "Hey cool! I'm the same species as Rova!"

"No time to gawk, Omni!" Rook called out, opening fire upon the miners with his Proto-tool.

"Oh, right my bad!"

"Big deal!" Vulkanus said as he fired his weapon at Shane's new form, but the laser bounced off him.

"Hey, I'm also laser proof too! Nice!" He frowned at the larger alien. "Your dead." Rolling up into a ball he sped towards Vulkanus who tossed the weapon aside and put both hands out stopping him. But the speed and force built up was making the larger alien skid through the dirt. Yet inspite of his he wasn't flinching.

"Think I'm going down that easily!? Think again!" Vulkanus gripped Shane and threw him up into the air as he came back down the detrovite punched him away.

But instead, the omnitrix wielders new form bounced off of walls like it was in a pin ball game before speeding back towards Vulkanus who raised up his arms and slammed down both fists onto Shane. But all that accomplished was bouncing him up into the air without a scratch on him.

The sphere like alien landed back onto the ground unfolding himself. "You know what, I think I'm gonna call this guy, Cannonbolt!" Vulkanus rushed up and went for a punch.

"Call it whatever you want I'm still going to break my boot in your ass!"

But he caught it and quite literally rolled along with the attack. "I beg to differ!" Cannonbolt exclaimed before tossing Vulkanus aside with ease.

Elsewhere the other titans were fairing rather well against the Pick Axe aliens. Starfire was blasting her way through thanks to her starbolts along with Cyborg who had his cannon equipped.

Raven blocking each of their attacks with her barriers and then promptly shoving them into the stone wall behind them. Knocking them all down.

Robin and Rook were back-to-back with the human throwing a birdarang at one incoming enemy and ducking under the blue armored Plumber's Proto-tool in staff formation. He swings in full circle, taking down the down the miners with skill. One charged him but he thrusts the staff close to the alien's sternum and the Gothamite hopped onto the weapon gracefully and kicked the goon in the dome.

Nearby Beast Boy was a kangaroo in full on boxer mode. He was punching aliens with ease even kicking them away in the process. It clear that if people were to watch this kangaroo do beat downs, whoever ran it would be filthy rich.

One of which only to get a quick and precise kick down under. It's clicking was as loud as it's squealing before it collapsed in pain.

The kangaroo proceeded to change into a baboon jumping from one alien to another bashing their faces in. Why he even changed forms turning into a Wolly Mammoth swinging his tusks around mowing them away.

All in all, the Teen Titans were cleaning house! But during the skirmish the laser was almost fully charged and ready to fire. While this was transpiring Cannonbolt was still locked in his fight with Vulkanus.

The two were trading blows left and right with Vulkanus throwing a right hook making the Arburian Pelarota stumble back. And then proceeds to plant a big boot onto the alien heroes center mass sending him rolling. But of course, the yellow and white alien bounced back from the hit.

As he gonna go towards Vulkanus he noticed the laser and rolled away towards the laser getting himself into the line of fire. As it was going and thanks to his shell it was deflected away hitting elsewhere such as a whole bunch of the pickaxe aliens coming at him.

Cannonbolt undid himself. "You're not gonna lay a finger on this ship you hear me!?"

"I've been here for two weeks and one or another I'm gonna finish it!" Vulkanus replied back as he picked up a large rock and hurled it over to his foe.

While this was going on the front doors to the ship opened up, the team turns, and we see Tiny emerging out giving off a roar of anger! Her home was in danger and these mean aliens were hurting her new friends!

One of the pickaxe aliens clicked to one of its many pals who tossed aside its pickaxe and rushed over to the laser mounting it and opened fired hitting Tiny in the process!

Terra races down the entrance of the ship witnessing the pain the infant was in and every ounce of emotion she in checked boils over. "No!" Right then Cyborg came running over prepping his cannon.

"Yo! Lay off the kid!" With that said he returned fire blasting a few of the pick axe aliens away. Meanwhile behind him, the Markovian's eyes flashed yellow and she yells with might, lifting various amounts of earth and unleashing a barrage at the laser even going as far as to launch the ground under it up and crashes it down.

She then made a few rocks stack up allowing her to get above the many aliens staring up at her. Then bringing both hands up she Terra grunted as she used the full scale of her powers making the ceiling the mine come rain down upon her foe! Those who had hurt the poor infant that was under her care! "Leave her alone!"

Dozens of them ran for it and at the same Vulkanus cursed in annoyance as he punched Cannonbolt aside. "Dammit! You ruined everything again!"

"Show's over, pal." He glares at criminal with anger, recovering from his attack. "Surrender now... Or else"

"Oh no, you ain't gonna have that favor." Vulkanus replied back. Reaching into his suit Vulkanus pulled out multiple canisters. Pressing down on the sides, they each started to blink. "See ya!" He tossed them at Cannonbolt before he himself bolted for it.

The canisters took Shane by surprise and just before he could possibly roll he was overcome by a sheer amount of bright flashes of light forcing him to cover and slam his eyes shut.

Cannonbolt's hearing was ringing and very faintly he heard Rook's voice. "Om-Omni! Shane are you alright!?" In response the transformed teen shook his head.

"Yeah, I'm, alright."

"Should we pursue after Vulkanus?"

"No, let him go." Cannonbolt replied as he reverted back to Shane.

"What?" Rook was surprised to hear this coming from his senior. "Why?"

"Rook, let's get one thing clear. Sometimes we aren't always able to catch them all. Plus, Vulkanus might be smart, but he's also not the brightest tool in the shed either. We'll see him again."

"Are you sure?"

"Trust me. He'll be back." He turns over to Tiny who was getting checked out by Raven with Terra being relieved that she was ok. "Besides, we found what we came here for."

After everything was sorted out the titans went inside the ship. Now that they had a brief idea, both Cyborg and Rook got to work over at a nearby control panel try and get the ship back online and awaken the infant's parents.

But just to be safe than sorry, they had Raven check them out. "Well?" Shane inquired and got a nod from her everyone was relieved to know that the parents were still alive and good.

"That is most wonderful news." Starfire said as she caressed Tiny's head much to the large green infant's joy.

"You know I still don't get it, what was she even doing with all of this junk anyways?" Beast Boy questioned in confusion looking at all the items littered around.

"When she woke up without her parents Tiny tried to look for stuff that could've helped." Robin deduced.

"But then again, considering she's just a baby, maybe not."

"Either way, I'm glad we managed to find her before anyone else could." Shane admitted. "Much less before anything could get worse." He glanced over to their tech experts. "Hey, Rook, Cy? How we looking over there?"

"We just about got it..." The metal teen replied. "I think we got the status pod's control panel back online."

"Were ready to awaken them." Rook added. "Just give us the word."

"Wake them up." Robin ordered.

Rook connected the cables and right then the machine came to life, the pods activated lifting up to reveal Tiny's parents. Compared to the infant, they were much bigger, at least almost the size of Humungosaur when he gets bigger. Upon emerging the father made a roar. At first the team was worried as they approached them. However instead, they went over to their child who was very happy to them at long last.

The mother bent down rubbing her cheek against Tiny while the father watched this along with the other titans who smiled at this family reunion.

We now see Tiny in a makeshift crib where the team was talking to Tiny's parents. They'd just finished do some important explanations on what had happened while their daughter was awake out of stasis, and they weren't.

"What do you mean this isn't Alpha Pluxima?" The father inquired.

"And it's not 1952?" The mother stopped to glance over to her little one. "Yes, dear, I see you."

Beast Boy tilted his head in confusion glancing over to Terra both of them saying. "1952? It's like way past that."

Robin chimed in. "You've been underground for nearly half a century."

"You're on planet Earth." Rook added. "Actually, in the Earth to be exact."

"The biggest question of the day is, why are you even doing underground in the first place?" Shane questioned.

"No idea." The mother replied.

Tiny's father answered. "We were traveling the other side of your galaxy to colonize in suspended animation for the journey."

"But there was a technical issue with the ship. That had to been what caused us to crash land here."

"Would probably explain why most of the systems were offline." Cyborg concludes.

"But then when your ship landed, it made a big hole in the ground..." Robin started putting the pieces together. "Then overtime it filled in and grew over."

"We've been asleep underground for half a century?" Tiny's father was trying to wrap his head around this sitting up and walked over to a window.

"Vulkanus wasn't digging for your ship, they just found you down here by accident." Shane clarified. "Plus, you'd be surprised, you're not the only ones that have crashed on Earth trapped in suspended animation. Every once in a while, we have cases just like yours."

"Well either way we are in your debt." Tiny's father said to the team. "Thank you."

"Indeed, we very much appreciate it." The mother said as Tiny looked over to Terra raising up her arms. Mom noticed this and shook her head. "No honey, you can't keep her." Tiny seemed to pout hearing this as her father leaned in from above.

"Earthlings need to roam free."

In response Tiny dropped onto the floor grunting a ebit angered to know that her friend couldn't stay with her and her family.

"Ok, now I want to know, how come we can understand you but she can't?" Beast Boy inquired.

Tiny's mother simply smiled. "Our daughter, can't talk yet, she's just a baby."

Terra smirked once again, pleased to know her woman's instinct was spot on even before Rook confirmed the results. Especially now since the mother confirmed it. "Told you." She said to the green changeling giving him a wink and stuck out her tongue Starfire giggled at this.

The blonde then walked over to Tiny's crib where the infant was playing with her toy. She stopped looking over to the friend she had made while on Earth. Terra reached out her hand and Tiny gave it to her. But do to how heavy it was, the blonde struggled to keep it up. Yet inspite of that Terra still retained her kind smile. "That's ok, Tiny, you keep it."

The infant smiled as well placing a hand on hers.

Outside of the mine the team stood by and watched as the sound of whirring was heard coming from inside of the mine. A loud boom was made and the ship came blasting out going outwards turning up and used its thrusters to get up into the sky making its way to space.

When that happened, Shane glanced over to Terra for a brief second before looking back to the night sky. "You know, there's a good chance you'll see her again."

"You think so?"

"Oh yeah, the universe is a big place. You never know what'll you'll find." The omnitrix wielder said before out of nowhere Starfire brought them all in for a hug as far as she could reach.

"Most true indeed friend! Most true!" She said happily smiling while the others were doing their best not to get crushed. On one hand however they all knew he was right because, for the first founding members, that was how they all met Starfire and in turn how they all became a team.

"Can you let us go now?" Raven questioned.

At the same time the ship was reaching out Earth's orbit in her crib Tiny watched them exit out and see's the earth come into view. While doing so she started to do something else.

"T-Ter-Terra." She spoke up her friend's name.

Hearing this the mother gasped in happiness. "Baby's first word."

"I wonder what it means." The father said looking over to their child and returned his focus up front keeping the ship on course all while Tiny waved goodbye to the earth itself.

Just maybe, Shane was right, someday, Tiny would see her friends of Earth.

Now replying back to reviewers

Kamen Rider Sentry: Nah, I'm sorry but just not interested.

TheCarlosInferno: Yes I did.

Raidentensho: I don't know, maybe? haven't really thought of including Charmcaster, much less possibly doing that other movie.

ThBeatles211: Thank you very much, nah, I don't that they'd need those things. It's an idea, but not really to sure. And I was thinking the exact same thing for when they got to Tokyo and deal with Brushogun. Having Furugitsune give them advice would help. As for this take on Unearthed, hope you like it.

zetsunaflames: Yep, rightyo, and that was exactly what I was aiming for, sure Vilgax would've stood out, but I've always liked Malware a whole lot better, not to mention Khyber as well. Terra does stay in the team and on the side of good But there's always a catch to something.

austinhodge379: feelings mutual.

Neodrasu: Good question there.

Nui Nui: Ha, that'd be interesting and you are right about that.

KJ: Oh relax one of those will be added.

Guest: And do you really think that's a proper way to ask? No it's not.

Adam Dodds: Eh...I don't know.

victorpantamedinax :Your welcome I guess?

MBS41: 1. Nah, if that were the case than it would've been Shane and Ravens kid traversing to that dimension. But I doubt I'd ever do in this life time. 2 That was by accident, and a mistake I fixed that. , its actually the one you see for the cover image of the story itself.

Benediktas 21: Right now.

Karsap: I was, but I did manage to find someone, thank you though.

Guest#1: Not interested.

OwlWarrior: Thank you, and I'm glad to see that your enjoying this story. As for the last chapter yep you are correct and I was dying to do that one for a while now. You can bet Shane and Raven are getting closer together, but I'm not really gonna try and rush anything though.

Oh that sounds cool to know.

Guest#2: Nope.

Guest#3: Nope.

Guest# 4: Nope not gonna include Ester
