Disclaimer: I don't own the Teen Titans but I down own the eight.
Gizmo and Mammoth were hiding in a run-down warehouse near the edge of Jump city. They had a look of fear in their eyes that both of them never had.
"So," Mammoth said, "has he called yet?"
"Shut up!" Gizmo snapped, "That's the tenth time you asked me that in the past hour and for the tenth time no he hasn't!"
Mammoth growled and continued to pace back and forth in the warehouse. He wasn't used to hiding.
After a few minutes Gizmo's computer beeped.
Gizmo eyes turn to the screen. "This is Gizmo."
"Gizmo this is Private Hive. I got your message." A voice came from the computer.
"Good, have you gotten ahold of anyone else?" asked Gizmo.
"I've got See More with me everyone else is in jail, said I was crazy, or dead already."
"Dammit!" Gizmo grunted, "Ok look, do you have any idea who hired them?"
"No clue man. Whoever did was smart enough to hack the account, get the money, and cover their tracks in less than a day."
Gizmo face dropped, "Alright…so what do we do?"
"I say we get the hell out of here."
Gizmo shook his head, "That's not going to work."
"Screw you man. If you want to stay in this city with those psychos then be my guest. I on the other hand want to live."
"Listen!" Gizmo yelled at the screen. "This is the eight we're talking about if we run they will find us. Our only chance is if we stick together."
The screen went quiet for a second "Ok…who do you have with you?"
"Just Mammoth."
"What happen to Jinx?"
"Idiot, you know she went to the other side with that Flash moron."
"Wait a second…she's with the Titans?"
"Yeah," Gizmo grunted. "She probably has no clue as to what's going on."
Owl and Eel
Eel was walking down the sidewalk of one of the many streets in the city. She kept looking out of the corner of her eye.
"Do you see him?" Owl's voice came over her head set.
"Not yet." She answered, "Do you?"
"Yes, he should be on your left in five seconds."
Eel's heart rate went up a little. They had spotted their target sooner than they expected. Owl wanted to just snipe him in the head and be done with it but Eel begged him to let her be the one that killed him. She wanted to show Owl how much she improved over the years.
Wolf and Fox
Fox was jumping roof to roof smelling the air while wolf was on the ground calmly waking.
"One billion per target…that's a lot of money." Wolf said to himself with a smile, "Imagine what I could do with that kind of dough." He looked down on his hands. "Maybe I could even fi-"
"Fox found target," Fox said over the head set, "would Wolf like kill?"
Wolf smiled. He always thought Fox was an idiot but he could find a target faster than anyone else. "I would love to."
Barracuda and Boa
Boa was sitting on a park bench looking across the street at a government building. As she sat there waiting for the target to come out she started to think about what she would do after this job was done. For a brief second a glimmer of hope entered her head. With the money she could quit. She could get a beautiful house somewhere, maybe even find someone and have a family. She could be free.
Barracuda looked at her watch
In 52 seconds the target would be out.
In 53 seconds she would come out of her hiding spot heading for the target.
In 55 seconds she would draw her blades and throw them at the target.
It would take 0.6 second for her blades to travel the distance towards the target's head imbedding them in his face.
She had already seen the target and calculated that the target could dodge an object in 0.7 second. So there was no way she would miss.
If by some fluke she did miss then Boa would move in to finish the target in 60 seconds.
Barracuda loved to do everything that needed to be done on time to the second.
Black Widow and Steer
"This is too easy." Black widow said with a grin.
They had found there target driving in a car behind an armored car. However because of morning traffic the armored car and the car with the target were stuck at a light.
Steer was about to turn to Black Widow to ask if she wanted the kill. But as he turned Black Widow quickly pushed him out of the way and ran towards the car with a dart in one of her hands.
"Remember what owl said," Steer said over his head set, "don't go overboard."
Titans Tower
Beast Boy was sitting on the edge of his bed looking at the floor.
"Alright," he said, "I'm going to do this."
He hated the fact that he couldn't walk and was determine to at least be able to stand up on his own.
He slowly put one of his feet on the floor and got up while still holding on to the bed post. But as he started to rise his leg gave way. Luckily for him he managed to pull himself back on the bed before he hit the floor.
Beast Boy cursed under his breath…he hated being useless.
Raven was in the kitchen fixing up some tea. She had barely been able to get any sleep the night before and was constantly nodding off. Not a good thing for someone with her condition. As she shook her head to keep her awake Starfire walked in.
"Raven," Starfire said, "I want to ask you something."
Raven turned her head; she wanted to say not now but was too tired to.
"What is it?" she asked.
"Do you think we should keep the truce?"
The question took Raven by surprise.
"Why do you ask?"
"Answer me first, Raven."
The forcefulness of Starfire caught Raven off guard.
"…No, a murder is a murder no matter who the victim is."
A smile appeared on Starfire face.
"Thank you Raven, I wanted to make sure that you would be at our side when we bring the assassins to justice."
"Why wouldn't I be at your side?" Raven asked.
Starfire looked down, "Robin and I are afraid that one of us might be killed. If that happens I would never forgive myself if I did not give you a chance to leave."
Raven put her tea down and placed her hands on Starfire's shoulders.
"Starfire, you have helped me in so many ways that there is no way I would want to leave. I will fight with you and Robin to the death."
Starfire's eyes met Raven's.
"We should pray that it does not come down to that."
