Boa woke up with a bandage on her head and a splitting headache. As she looked around she notices that she was in a different hotel room. Instead of it being one of the fancy suites that they usually stayed in it was one of those simple ones with just two twin beds.

"Boa awake? Fox is happy."

Boa turned her head and saw Fox sitting in a chair next to her bed.

"Where are we?" she asked.

"New hotel. Owl said Eight should not stay in same place." Fox said with a grin.

"Where's everyone else?"

"In other rooms. Fight broke out. Owl said it would be better this way."

Boa didn't care enough to ask what the fight was about.

"Would Boa like water?" Fox asked, "Owl said that Boa is Fox's roommate. Fox must take care of roommate."

Boa was not about to be babied, especially not by Fox.

"I'll get it myself." She said.

Boa slowly got up from the bed and tried to walk to the sink in the bathroom, but as soon as she stood up the room started to spin.

Before she fell Fox caught her.

"Fox help Boa."

"I don't need help Fox." She snapped.

But Fox did not listen as he carried her to the bathroom sink.

"Boa is Fox's roommate…Fox help roommate."

Boa gave up. She knew that once Fox set his mind to something it was pointless to argue.

As she splashes the cool water on her face she asked if the target had been taken out.

"Yes. Eel said Steer blew targets head off."

Boa didn't say anything.

"I was useless." She thought to herself.

Second Room

Cyborg, Aqualad, and Speedy got out of the T-car in the garage of Titans Tower.

"I hate long drives." Aqualad said as he stretches out.

"Why," Speedy ask, "to long out of water?"

"Yup, so excuse me while I go take a dip in the ocean."

Cyborg, however, wasn't listening. He just notices that Beast Boy was in a wheelchair watching the small TV that he had on his workbench.

"Hey," he asked, "shouldn't you be in bed?"

Beast Boy didn't turn his head or even bother to say hi to Speedy or Aqualad.

"This is the only place with a working TV."

Cyborg raised his eyebrow.

"Come on, I'll take you to the living room. Its warmer, has a bigger TV, and a kitchen with food in it."

Beast Boy shook his head, "I don't want to go in the living room right now."

Cyborg was now officially weirded out.

"Ok…do you want me to bring you anything?"

Beast Boy shook his head.

Cyborg knew that whatever happened while he was gone must have been big

Third Room

Barracuda lay on the bed constantly looking at the clock.

She hated digital clocks; they didn't have the soothing ticking sound that she loved so much.

4:49 P.M.

"Where was Steer?" she thought, "He said he be back in a few minutes."

Barracuda was getting agitated as she looks at the clock again.

Still 4:49 P.M.

"Dammit! Where the hell are you?"

Her pulse started to go up, she was starting to sweat, and she couldn't get up from the bed because her left leg was killing her.

She looked at the clock again.

4:50 P.M

"I'm going to kill Steer! Slow and painful!" Her mind raced, "I'm going to enjoy twisting the blade till he cries out for mercy…and I'm not going to give it to him!"

The door open and in walked Steer.

"Here you go." He said as he tosses a new watch on her bed.

She quickly picks it up and places it against her ear.

It gave off the most beautiful ticking sound she ever heard.

Her pulse slowed as she set it to the correct time.

"Thanks." She said gratefully.

"Sorry it took a while, I had to go across the street just to find a store."

"Don't worry." She said, as she placed it on her arm, "I didn't even notice."

Fourth Room

Starfire sat in her room looking at the pictures of her and Robin over the years. She desperately tried to stop crying.

Silkie knew something was wrong as he crawled up to her and nuzzled her leg.

Starfire made a little smile as she pick him up.

"Do not worry Silkie." She said as she held him in his arms, "I am not mad at you. But Robin is mad at me. He is mad because I could not help him against these assassins. I am useless."

Silkie stared into her eyes with the cutest face he could do.

A small smile appeared on her face.

KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK!

Starfire got up and open her door.

Mas Y Menos stood at her door way with flowers in their hands.

"Estas son para ti hermosa estrella." They said as they handed them out.

Starfire smile got a little bigger. Ever since they came to the tower all they've been trying to do was to cheer her up.

She knelt down and hugged them both.

"Thank you my fast little friends."

Fifth Room

Wolf was in the bathroom melting down a few items that he brought in.

Making a new face was slow tedious work but he had it down to a science.

He had changed his face so many times that he couldn't even remember what he looked like originally. Part of him regretted that, and part of him didn't give a damn.

Black Widow meanwhile was watching the 5 o'clock news with glee.

"We now bring you our top story. The bodies of Dr. Light, Control Freak, Atlas, Mad Mod, and Ding Dong Daddy were found scattered across the city in the early morning. This combined with the deaths of Johnny Rancid, Mumbo Jumbo, and Adonis make the death toll up to eight. You may remember these names as they are all self-proclaimed super villains who in the past have battled the Teen Titans. Now one question remains. Are the deaths related and if so are the Teen Titans behind it. We now go to the streets for people who claimed to witness the deaths."

Black Widow laughed. She loved it when their work made the news. It wasn't the feeling of fame that she loved. It was the fact that the reporters never got it right.

"Then out of nowhere a knife shoots out an-"

"This crazy girl was on top of the car-"

"She said he was her grandpa-"

"I didn't even see the punch-"

"I'm telling you it was a freaking robot man!"

It made her feel like only she knew what was really going on in the world.

Sixth Room

Raven was meditating in her room.

It was the only thing she could do to keep her new emotion from blowing up the entire tower.

During her meditation she came to one conclusion.

She would not tell Robin or Beast Boy till after this situation with the assassins was resolved. That way it wouldn't cause any unnecessary problems while dealing with these deadly enemies.

Now she was feeling a little guilty because part of her didn't want the situation to be resolved.

"You have to say it sometime." She told herself, "It's only going to get worse if you keep it bottled in."

She couldn't believe she thought that.

She had been bottling in her emotions all her life but this new one, love, was stronger than all of her past ones combined. There was no way she could bottle this one without something exploding.

KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK!

"Who is it?" she asked.

"Hey Rae, its Cyborg," his voice said, "I've got Titans East with me and were going to have a meeting."

"Give me a minute." She said, "I need to finish here."

Seventh Room

Eel couldn't believe her luck.

Because of her argument with Wolf she didn't have to share a room with him, Fox insisted that he take care of Boa, and Steer was the only one who Barracuda wanted to talk to right now. All of which meant one thing, that she and Owl would be sharing a room.

It couldn't get any better than this.

As Owl walk back into the room and sat on his bed Eel did her best to make the most of it.

"Should we order room service?" she asked.

Owl shook his head.

Eel wanted to start up small talk but had no idea what to say.

"Eel," Owl said.

Eel perk up. "What is it?"

"What do you think of this job?" he asked.

Eel froze, "Ummm, you mean do I like what we do?"

"No," he said, "this job. This twenty targets twenty days one."

Eel never really thought about it, the only thing she knew was that after it was done they would be twenty billion dollars richer.

"It's no different from the past ones we've had. Only we get paid a lot more." She answered.

"True." He said.

"Why do you ask?"

"Something about this I don't like."

"And what don't you like?" a third voice said.

Eel and Owl turn their heads and saw the man with the briefcase.

"I don't like the fact that our employer is using a hologram to monitor us." Owl said.

The man smiled, "He just wants to make sure you're doing your job. He is spending a lot of money on you."

Owl got up from his bed.

"I want to see him. Face to face." He said.

"I'm sorry, but that is out of the question."

"Why?"

"I believe one of the requirements for the job was no questions. And you are asking a question."

Owl glared at the man.

"Now eight in two days is a decent start. Will you be able to finish the other twelve?"

Owl nodded.

"Good. We hate to see all that hard work your team put in go to waste."

Eighth Room

Cyborg enters the living room alone. He told everyone else to wait outside.

"What the hell happened?" he asks Robin.

Robin was still sitting on the couch looking out the window.

"More villains were killed." He said with a shrug.

"Don't bullshit me." Cyborg said with a stern tone, "Beast Boy's a mess, Starfire can't stop crying, and Raven's been stuck in her room almost all day. Not to mention that the living room looks like a tornado hit."

He marches up right to Robin's face.

"So I'm going to ask again. WHAT…THE…HELL…HAPPENED?"

Robin met his glaze. "You wouldn't understand."

Cyborg then slapped Robin across the face and grabs him by the collar.

"Listen here, boy wonder, in case you haven't noticed you've been acting like a real asshole that's tearing this team apart! Now get your shit together or do I have to slap the hell out of you again!"

Robin snapped out of his daze.

"…thanks, I needed that." He said, "Sorry about the TV."

Cyborg let go of Robin's shirt.

"Don't apologize to me." He said.

As Cyborg was about to walk out of the living room Robin grabs him by the shoulder.

"Hey Cy, do you think we should keep the truce?" he asked.

"Hell no, you can't have people like that running around."

"But what if one of us gets killed?"

Cyborg turned to Robin, "We all know that this is part of the job man. And if it does come down to that," he held out his hand, "then it has been a pleasure working with you."

As Cyborg left the room Robin stood there with shame.

He did not deserve to be leader.

He did not deserve to have such great friends.

And they did not deserve to have been treated like that by him.

He was going to stop the assassins and do whatever it took to protect his team.

Even if it killed him.
