Teen Titans Unleashed

Spoiler: I will introduce two new characters in this chapter and we will also see the return of Val-Yor. I can understand why a lot of you might not like seeing him, but I think you'll like where I'm going with this.

Valiant Effort

The episode began showing an unconscious Robin lying on the floor as he gradually opened his eyes and woke up in a daze. He was lying on his side on the floor and could barely see for the moment as his eyesight began to return.

He sat up and groaned as he cringed while holding his head as he said, "My head."

He glanced around and was shocked to find himself in the main room of Titans Tower, which was demolished. The window had been shattered and there was broken glass on the floor, the sofa was broken in two, and there were pieces of rubble all over the floor. There were also some holes smashed in the nearby walls and claw marks on the floor, no doubt from Beast Boy. Looking out the window showed a bright sunny sky as it appeared to be early in the afternoon and thing seemed peaceful aside from the damage to the Tower.

Robin got onto his feet as he glanced around in shock as he asked, "What happened here?"

Robin could not remember anything that recently happened today but all the damage indicated that someone attacked the Tower and a fight had broken out. Unfortunately, Robin had no way of knowing who attacked them or who had won, only that his head still hurt and that he was alone in the room.

He then glanced around with concern as he cupped his mouth and called out, "Beast Boy? Cyborg? Raven? STARFIRE?!"

There was no response to his cries as his they echoed through the Tower and Robin could tell something was very wrong. He cried in shock when Silkie suddenly jumped to his face in fear and smiled affectionately as he startled nuzzling Robin.

Robin then pried Silkie off of his face and said, "Silkie?"

Silkie smiled at him while wiggling his legs and Robin's expression softened as he admitted, "Well right now I'm glad to see you're okay at least. Do you know what happened?"

Silkie shuddered in fear as he made noises and recoiled in terror, but since he could not speak Robin knew he wasn't going to be any help.

He held him in his hands as he looked at the room and cocked an eyebrow while he deductively said, "Someone must've attacked the Tower and abducted Starfire and the others, but why didn't they take me too?"

He then gently set Silkie down on the floor as he walked forward and glanced around at the destroyed room with a serious expression.

He glanced around two more times before pounding his fist while he seriously said, "I don't know who did this, but I promise that I'll find out and make them pay for this."

Silkie walked up behind Robin as he whimpered in both fear and concern as he was also worried about the others.

Robin looked at Silkie and smiled kindly as he said, "Don't worry Silkie, I'll find the others and save them from whoever is behind this."

Silkie then smiled and nuzzled Robin's ankle affectionately while Robin smiled down at him fondly with confidence.

He then stared forward with a serious expression as he solemnly said, "Beast Boy, Cyborg, Raven, Starfire, I promise that I'll find all of you, no matter what it takes."

Opening theme song

Robin was driving his R-Cycle through the city as he searched for any signs for any of his friends, but could find no trace of them. He asked dozens of civilians if they had seen any of the other Titans, but none of them had anything to report. He also went to the police and asked if there had been any activity from villains who weren't in prison, but they had reported no major criminal activity. He tried locating them with their Communicators but he could not get a lock on any of them, suggesting either their locators had been deactivated or they weren't in the city. He spent hours trying to find any clue but so far his search had been for nothing as he had no leads or sources to turn to.

Robin drove his R-Cycle down a street as he said to himself, "What could've happened? Where could they be?"

Suddenly his Communicator beeped and he quickly pulled over to answer it as he hopefully said, "Starfire?"

It was Speedy who spoke politely as he said, "Sorry Robin. It's just me."

Robin sighed in disappointment as he respectfully said, "Speedy, now's not a good time. My friends are missing."

Speedy showed a serious expression as he said, "Crazy coincidence, mine are too. The rest of the Titans East have been captured."

Robin's eyes widened in shock as he said, "Kidnapped?! By who?!"

Speedy showed a baffled expression as he said, "I'm not sure. I was hoping you'd know."

Suddenly the Communicator's screen split and showed Golden Eagle as he urgently said, "Your teams are missing too?! I thought it was just mine!"

The screen then showed Jericho, prompting Robin to ask, "Jericho! Have the rest of the Titans North been kidnapped too?!"

He nodded and Speedy became worried as he said, "Okay, something's seriously wrong."

Robin showed a serious expression before pushing a button on his Communicator while he said, "Agreed. Something's going on. We're going to need help. Calling all Titans: We have a situation. I want all available members to meet me at Titans Tower in Jump City as soon as possible. We'll discuss our situation there."

He hung up and then drove off on his R-Cycle as he immediately headed back toward the Tower, unaware that someone listened to him. A familiar spaceship was flying in Earth's orbit and the pilot intercepted Robin's transmission before pushing a button and pushing on his yoke.

Someone else had also intercepted Robin's transmission as a familiar female voice chuckled and said, "Well then, why don't I send you all a little playmate."

The mysterious girl pushed a button on a terminal and some sort of pod was launched in the air and started flying through the sky. Sometime later, it was dark outside and Robin was pacing the floor of the main room, still demolished, as he waited for the arrival of the other Titans. He heard a noise and turned to see Hardware fly in through the broken window before landing on the floor.

He glanced around at the damage before joking, "Looks like you guys had some party."

Suddenly they both heard the sound of a horn as a portal opened up and they watched Herald step out of it with a bunch of other Titans. The others who emerged from the portal were Speedy, Golden Eagle, Jericho, Flamebird, Rocket, Ravager, Bushido, Risk, and Blank Slate.

The portal closed after they all came out and Herald smiled proudly as he said, "I thought I'd use my horn to save us some time and trouble."

Rocket glanced around at the damage to the main room and said, "Wow! Who's the bad guy who trashed your place?"

Robin folded his arms as he regretfully said, "I wish I knew."

Silkie came out of hiding with a smile on his face, and Risk picked up as he adoringly said, "Well look at you! I've never seen a bug like you before! You're pretty cute too!"

He started tickling Silkie, who smiled affectionately before Robin looked at the others and asked, "Are you the only ones?"

Golden Eagle stood with Herald and Speedy as he answered, "We tried tracking and calling all the other Titans but most of them are missing."

Herald showed a calm expression as he said, "The only other ones we could find are Melvin, Timmy Tantrum, Teether, and Bobby."

Speedy folded his arms as he seriously said, "They're fine but we didn't want to risk putting them in danger too. So we warned them to be careful, and Bobby will keep them safe."

Robin understood as he nodded and glanced around at everyone while he said, "Well that's some good news. This isn't what I was hoping for, but right now we need all the help we can get."

Ravager joined the four of them as she asked, "So what's the deal Boy Wonder?"

Robin showed a serious expression as he said, "Someone attacked us at the Tower and kidnapped my team, and something tells me the other Titans being missing is no coincidence."

Speedy nodded as he seriously said, "You can say that again. In Steel City our Tower was attacked by aliens."

Robin was shocked as he said, "Aliens?!"

A dream cloud appeared over Speedy's head showing chibi versions of the Titans East and a spaceship as he said, "Yeah! We were just minding our own business when this spaceship showed up and blasted a whole in our roof. They took Aqualad, Bumblebee, Mas, and Menos and just flew off."

Golden Eagle held his palms up as he worriedly said, "The same thing happened to us! A space ship came and blasted Superboy, Miss Martian, Blue Beetle, and Wonder Girl and took them! I tried to stop them but there were too many of them! They knocked them out and loaded them into their ship and took them away!"

Jericho joined them with a concerned expression as Speedy asked, "You too?"

Jericho nodded in agreement and then Blank Slate joined them and seriously said, "Same here. The Point Titans and I were attacked by these ugly aliens who stunned Blockade, Serpenteen, Shortcut, and Gargoyle and took them away in a ship. I tried to fight them but they stopped me and said they had no use for me."

Robin showed a suspicious expression as he held his chin and said, "So aliens are behind this. Something feels familiar about this but I can't put my finger on it."

Ravager eyed Robin as she asked, "Well what happened to you guys?"

Robin honestly looked at her as he regretfully said, "I don't know. I woke up in here with my head hurting and I saw the damage done and everyone missing. I don't remember."

Speedy held his right palm out as he curiously asked, "Well, what do you remember?"

Robin held his chin as he thought and then a short flashback played, first showing him walking into the main room with a smile and eating breakfast with his team. Afterwards it showed Beast Boy and Cyborg competitively playing a videogame, Raven reading a book at the table, and Starfire happily holding Silkie in her arms. Finally it showed Starfire lovingly walking up next to Robin as he and her put their arms around each other and she rested her head on his shoulder.

While this flashback played Robin's voiceover said, "I woke up and walked in here to have breakfast with my friends, just like any other day. We were all enjoying a nice peaceful day together since no crime reports had come in yet. It seemed like we were having a perfect day together with no worries."

The flashback ended and Robin looked at the others as he honestly said, "After that it's all a blur."

Ravager had her hands on her hips as she asked, "So you don't remember anything else?"

Robin thought hard as he honestly said, "Well… I remember Starfire being worried something, but I can't recall what. But it might've had something to do with these aliens."

Speedy pointed at Robin as he theorized, "The aliens must've attacked you guys and hit you in the head, knocking you out and damaging your short-term memory."

Robin folded his arms as he curiously said, "Maybe, but why would they take Starfire, Beast Boy, Cyborg, and Raven but leave me behind?"

Golden Eagle moved his left hand to refer to everyone in the room as he said, "Probably the same reason they didn't take any of us."

Blank Slate agreed as he seriously said, "They had no use for us."

Speedy held his right palm up as he curiously asked, "But what do they want with the others?"

Robin showed a fierce expression as he said, "I don't know but we have to find them and save our friends before they do who-knows-what to them!"

Suddenly Robin's Communicator beeped and he looked at it to see a report showing the city was being attacked. A huge explosion could be seen from Titans Tower and people were heard screaming in terror as something was happening. Robin put his Communicator away with exasperation as he looked at all the other Titans who were waiting for orders.

Ravager was brutally honest as she said, "Looks like your friends will have to wait."

Robin clinched his fist as he irritably said, "Let's make this quick! Hopefully this will provide us some answers! Titans go!"

They all immediately rushed into action; in the city people were running in fear as a twelve-foot-tall monster was attacking. It looked like two monsters fused together as it had two heads and each side of its body looked different. The right side of its body was green and scaly with a head that looked like that of a monstrous fish with sharp teeth, fins on the sides, and it had webbed hands and feet with sharp claws. The left side of its body was dark orange with scales, a hand with only three fingers, a foot like a T-Rex's, and a head similar to a dragon's with two short horns curving backward. The creature also had two orange dragon-like wings coming out of its back and a long green tail out of its butt with a fish-like fin on the end. The two-headed monster demonstrated its super brute strength as it lifted a car and threw it, causing to explode when crashing. Both heads let out monstrous roars before it heard a horn and turned to see one of Herald's portals open and Robin emerged from it with the other Titans.

Both heads glared at the Titans as they snarled and Risk happily said, "Wow! Look at that thing!"

The monster stomped its foot and caused a small earthquake that made the Titans shake a bit before regaining their footing.

Rocket the reluctantly said, "This thing might be too much for us to handle."

Robin fearlessly pulled out an explosive disc as he said, "This isn't the first two-faced villain I've fought."

Speedy aimed an arrow at the monster as he said, "I'm not backing down here."

The monster was marching toward them when Robin threw his disc and Speedy shot his arrow, both hitting the monster and exploding against it. The smoke cleared and the monster emerged, unharmed but angered as both heads growled before it ran and tried to smash them. They scattered to avoid it as it slammed both fists on the ground and left a crater in the pavement with rubble flying in the air. Bushido and Risk ran toward it to attack but the monster's orange head looked at them and breathed a stream of fire at them. They dodged it as it set part of the ground ablaze before Golden Eagle flew at it and swung his mace at both its heads. He managed to knock it back as it stumbled and he swung it a couple more times before the monster swung its left backhand and knocked him away. He crashed to the ground and groaned in pain while Rocket flew down to help him, but while she was distracted the monster's green head spit a glob of slime at her and Golden Eagle.

They were both covered in slime as Rocket cringed in disgust and said, "Eww! Gross!"

Golden Eagle also cringed before he discovered he was stuck while he said, "Yuck! Hey I can't move!"

Rocket also struggled a she said, "Me neither! This stuff is really sticky!"

The two-headed monster then prepared to smash them until Hardware flew at it and rammed it, knocking it away from them. He knocked it over while Robin and Speedy helped free Rocket and Golden Eagle, then the monster got up punched Hardware away. He was flying back before he recovered and then the monster flapped its wings and flew up with both heads roaring as it hovered in the air. Hardware flew straight toward it while the green head spewed more of its slime at him; his armor was covered in it but he did not stop. The orange head then launched a fireball at Hardware, and it caused a big explosion that blasted him out of the air. He crashed to the ground, tearing up the pavement before Herald came to his aid with concern, but he got up.

Hardware looked at the monster as he shouted, "Don't let it mix its fire with its slime!"

Robin narrowed his eyes as he yelled, "Got it!"

Flamebird flew birdarangs at the monster but they only bounced off its body and did no damage as it kept flapping its wings. It descended downward and spewed a bunch of slime from its green head at her but she dodged it before Risk jumped in. He launched himself from a parked car toward the monster and punched it in its orange face with his mechanical arm. It jerked its head before it spun around and knocked Risk away with its tail, and he crashed to the ground with a groan of pain. The monster kept hovering in the air as it turned its orange head and while breathing a stream of fire at Jericho, Herald, and Bushido. Herald and Bushido dodged the fire very well but Jericho was running for his life until Ravager came and tackled him to safety. The monster stopped breathing fire before it flew down and tried to crush them, but Ravager lifted Jericho and pulled him to safety again as they got out of the way.

The two-headed monster slammed down on the street and formed a small crater before Ravager asked, "You okay?"

Jericho smiled gratefully as he nodded and Ravager helped him on his feet with a smile as she said, "You're welcome."

The two-headed monster stomped toward them as it growled and Ravager drew her swords and fiercely said, "No one messes with my brother!"

She ran at the monster as it swiped its claws at her but she jumped up and dodged it before running on its arm. She jumped and kicked it in the left face before slashing her swords, but they seemed to do no visible damage to either of the heads. It grabbed her and threw her away but Rocket caught her with her inertia field she shot from her hands and gently set her down. She then flew in front of the two headed monster and fired a ray of purple kinetic energy and successfully knocked over the two headed monster. She smiled triumphantly until the monster got up and lifted a bus over its heads and roared in rage as it threw the bus. Herald jumped in front of her and blew his horn to open a portal that sucked up the bus, then he closed it and opened another portal over the two-headed monster. The bus fell out of it and crashed down on top of the two-headed monster before exploding, but the monster emerged from the wreckage as it roared furiously.

Robin and Speedy joined Herald as he nervously said, "Guys, I think we're gonna need some help here."

Suddenly they heard a familiar voice shout, "You rang!"

Suddenly a red X came flying through the air and attached to the chest of the two-headed monster before exploding.

Red X then jumped next to Robin, who exclaimed, "Red X!"

Cheshire suddenly jumped next to Speedy and threw out some shurikens while he yelled, "Cheshire!"

The two-headed monster swatted the shurikens away like flies before Cheshire said, "We saw the commotion and thought you guys could use a hand."

They all watched as the green head spewed a bunch of slime while the orange head breathed a stream of fire. Robin, Speedy, Red X, and Cheshire immediately cleared the area before the slime and fire combined and caused a huge explosion.

They barely avoided the explosion as Red X impatiently said, "Who is this freakshow and how do we stop him?!"

Robin tensely stared at the two-headed monster as he said, "I'm not sure! All of our heavy hitters are missing and this thing is as tough as Cinderblock!"

It started stomping toward them until it was fired at from behind by Hardware with his right Omni-Cannon. It turned around and breathed fire at Hardware but he flew sideways and avoided it while he kept shooting at it.

Cheshire watched them as she hastily said, "Well you'd better figure something out fast! My blades can't do anything to that thing!"

They were joined by Ravager, Jericho, and Blank Slate as Robin urgently asked, "Blank Slate, can you copy that thing's powers?"

Blank Slate eyed the monster while stepping back nervously as he said, "Maybe, but I have no idea how absorbing that things powers might affect me."

Robin understood and looked at Jericho as he asked, "Jericho, can you possess it?"

Jericho shook his head before holding up his two left fingers, and Ravager translated, "No, that thing has two heads. He can only possess one."

Robin understood again as the two-headed monster ripped a streetlight out of the ground and swung it like a bat, knocking Hardware out of the air. He crashed to the ground and the others joined him as they all assembled and stared at the monster as it snarled with slime dripping from its green mouth and flames burning in its orange one. It prepared to spit slime and breathe fire at all of them when suddenly it was blasted by a red energy blast and blown back.

A giant red question mark appeared over the Titans' heads as they all simultaneously said, "Huh?!"

The spaceship from earlier flew over them and hovered in the air as it faced the two-headed monster while it got back on its feet.

The Titans all stared up at the ship as Rocket asked, "Friend or foe?"

Robin immediately recognized the ship as he glared at it and coldly said, "Neither, but right now I'll take help where I can get it."

The two-headed monster roared in rage at the ship before flapping its wings and flying toward it, but the ship fired again and blasted it back. It crashed on the ground and tore up the pavement as it slid on its back before stopping in front of the pod. It got back up and growled at the ship before it decided to retreat; it got into the pod and closed the hatch before the pod took flight and left.

Robin glanced around at the others as he asked, "Did anyone plant a tracking device on that pod?"

Everyone shook their heads, prompting Robin to hold his head in frustration and complain, "Now we'll never know where it came from!"

Red X looked at Robin before pointing at the spaceship while he said, "Hey kid, I'd worry more about this thing."

The ship slowly descended and landed on the street as the Titans all gathered around the side of the ship and waited for the pilot to come out. Some of them drew weapons precautiously while others stared at the ship with suspicion and others showed calm curiosity, but Robin folded his arms with disdain.

The door opened and from it emerged Val-Yor who smiled arrogantly as he said, "No need to thank me."

Robin did not change his expression as he said, "Val-Yor."

Seeing Robin, Val-Yor put his fists on his sides as he coldly greeted, "Hello Robin."

Speedy looked at Robin with a curious expression as he said, "You know this guy?"

Robin kept staring at Val-Yor with arms folded in disdain as he answered, "We met him once when we helped him defeat the Locrix, but we severed all ties with him because of how he kept mistreating Starfire."

Val-Yor then folded his arms as he coldly said, "You Earth kids served me well at first but you and your troq proved yourselves inferior."

The others glared at Val-Yor, understanding Robin's cold demeanor as he lowered his arms asking, "What are you doing here?"

Val-Yor smiled arrogantly as he pointed his right thumb at where the monster once was and said, "Well we saw you kids fighting that beast and we thought you could use a hand."

Robin cocked an eyebrow as he asked, "We?"

Val-Yor smiled as he stepped aside and introduced two kids who came out while he said, "Yep, me and some new friends of mine."

A boy and girl stepped out of the ship with proud smiles as they posed heroically while looking at everyone. The boy had tan skin, short black hair, and was around the same height and build as Cyborg, while the girl had paler skin with long black hair and a height and build like Starfire's. The boy wore a black sleeveless shirt with black gloves that had white cuffs, and he had matching pants and boots with a red belt that had a yellow buckle. He also wore a gold shoulder strap over his left shoulder with two gold cables, one going under his left arm and the other going under his right, and they connected at a round buckle over his heart. The girl wore colorful battle armor with golden gauntlets, boots, and a chest plate; but her pants and sleeves were bluish black. She wore a helmet that was bluish black with golden crests on the front almost like an Egyptian headpiece, and she had a long red cape.

Val-Yor pointed at the boy then the girl while he said, "Meet Powerboy and Little Barda. Two young heroes I came across in my travels through the galaxy. I took them under my wing they've been helping me since then."

Little Barda smiled cockily as she said, "You're welcome for the save."

Powerboy smiled egotistically as he said, "I could've taken that thing."

The others were not impressed as Robin got to the point and asked, "Val-Yor, why are you here?"

Val-Yor showed a serious expression as he answered, "I'm here to bring a filthy troq to justice!"

Commercial break

Robin immediately became enraged as he pointed at Val-Yor as he said, "You're here for Starfire?! Did you take her! If you hurt her I swear…"

Powerboy stared at Robin with curiosity as he said, "I can sense your emotions. You're very protective of this Tamaranean."

Red X spoke tauntingly as he pointed at Robin and said, "She is his girlfriend!"

Robin was annoyed while Little Barda had a juicy smile on her face as she said, "Ooh, do tell!"

Val-Yor was repulsed as he said, "Ugh! I thought you were smarter than that! I thought you'd have standards! I can't believe you and that troq are together!"

Robin clinched his fists as he angrily said, "Don't talk about Starfire that way! She's worth more than you'll ever know! And I won't let you hurt her!"

Val-Yor held his hands up as he said, "Easy kid, I'm not here for your troq girlfriend. I'm talking about the other one."

The others were confused as Speedy asked, "Other one?"

Val-Yor showed a serious expression as he pointed his right thumb at himself as he said, "I'm here to bring in the filthy Tamaranean wanted by the Centauri police!"

Robin was shocked as his eyes widened in realization and he said, "Blackfire?! Wait… I remember now!"

Robin had another flashback showing him and his friends in the main room like before, but Starfire held Silkie with a concerned expression.

Robin came up next to her as he asked, "What's wrong Starfire?"

Starfire cradled Silkie with concern as she said, "My sister has escaped from prison again. I worry that we are not safe as long as she is free."

Beast Boy and Cyborg kept playing their videogame while Cyborg said, "Look at the bright side Star, at least she left Earth."

This did not make her feel better as she said, "Yes but she will return one day to take her revenge on me and everyone I care for."

Robin put his arm around Starfire as he comfortingly said, "Nothing bad will happen Starfire. I promise whatever happens nothing will tear us apart or destroy us. If Blackfire ever comes for us we'll be ready."

Starfire smiled lovingly as she put her arm around Robin and rested her head on his shoulder saying, "Robin, you are truly magnificent."

Beast Boy smiled at them over his shoulder as he said, "Aww!"

Suddenly the screen/window was blown up and Beast Boy cried in fear as they all stared at the explosion while the smoke cleared.

Blackfire was floating just outside with her eyes glowing purple as she leered and sarcastically said, "Is this a bad time? Sorry, should I come back later?"

Starfire and Robin both glared at her as they simultaneously said, "Blackfire!"

Her eyes stopped glowing as she coyly said, "The one and only."

Starfire immediately set Silkie down and floated in the air with her eyes and hands glowing green while Robin stood in a fighting stance. Cyborg activated his right sonic cannon, Raven pulled her hoot up and held her hands out with them covered in spheres of her black magic, and Beast Boy turned into a lion.

Starfire glared daggers at her sister as she furiously yelled, "This is our home and you are not welcome here!"

Blackfire smiled sadistically before moving her hand to introduce someone while she said, "Sorry little sister, but I've brought some friends who have come a long way and I'm not about to turn them away now."

A Psion spaceship descended down in front of Titans Tower and floated in front of it before some doors opened. A bunch of Psions flew into the main room with jetpacks and they were all armed with laser rifles that they cocked and prepared to attack.

Starfire's eyes and hands stopped glowing as she yelled, "The Psions!"

Blackfire smiled psychotically before pointing at them while she said, "That's right! Remember that invasion I tried to lead a while back? Well we had to something smaller, so I agreed to help them steal you and all your friends for their experiments! Take them down!"

The Psions started firing but Raven made a wall of her black magic that blocked their shots before Beast Boy morphed into an Ankylosaurus. She dropped it and he swung his clubbed tail and knocked a bunch of Psions away while the others ran out and started fighting them. Psions fired their rifles at Raven but she destroyed their weapons before knocking them to the floor with a wave of her black magic. Cyborg blasted one Psimon with his sonic cannon before he grabbed one and threw him at another, then he blasted a fourth. Robin punched one with his electric brass knuckles and shocked him before jumping and kicking another Psion in the face. Starfire's eyes glowed green while Blackfire's glowed purple and they both fought in the air as they punched and kicked each other repeatedly. Beast Boy changed into a gorilla and swung his backfist at three Psions before turning into a kangaroo and punching one in the face three times before knocking it out. Beast Boy was blasted from behind as he cried in pain before reverting to his human form, stunned by the blast.

Raven looked at him with concern as she yelled, "Beast Boy!"

While she was distracted Raven was hit by two blasts from Psions' rifles and stunned as she fell to the floor.

Cyborg saw this and yelled, "Raven!"

A bunch of Psions aimed their weapons at Cyborg and blasted him simultaneously as he yelled in agony before being knocked out. Some of the Psions went to capture the unconscious Titans but Robin jumped in front of them and knocked them away with his bo staff. Then he looked up and watched Blackfire kick Starfire and send her crashing through a wall, prompting Robin to pole vault and try to kick Blackfire. Unfortunately she was too fast for him as she dodged his kick, grabbed his shirt, and held him in the air with an evil grin.

He grabbed her arm as he desperately struggled while she gloated, "Nice try Boy Blunder, but we're only here for the strong ones."

She then threw Robin at the wall as he cried in pain and fell to the floor as Starfire yelled, "Robin!"

She then furiously flew out of the hole she made when she crashed into the wall and tackled Blackfire before Blackfire kneed her in the stomach and pushed her off. Before Starfire could attack again she was hit by several Psions' laser rifles as she cried in pain, then Blackfire grabbed her and punched her in the face, knocking her out. The unconscious Starfire fell to the floor while Blackfire landed next to her with a triumphant smile as she rested her wrists on her hips. She turned to watch the Psions load Raven, Cyborg, and Beast Boy onto the ship before Blackfire lifted her sister and hung her body over her shoulders.

She started floating toward the ship as she sadistically said, "Don't worry little sister, you'll still have most of your friends to keep you company."

She boarded the spaceship as all the doors closed and it flew away while Robin watched from the floor, feeling dizzy before he finally lost consciousness.

The flashback ended and Robin looked at the others as he explained, "It was Blackfire! She attacked us with Psions! They were behind all of it!"

Val-Yor folded his arms as he condescendingly said, "Sounds like they did a number on you."

Robin glared at him over his shoulder before looking back at the others as he said, "The Psions are the ones who have been taking everyone."

Val-Yor then scoffed, "It took you that long to figure that out? Wow you're behind."

Robin turned and glared at Val-Yor as he angrily said, "You mean you knew this was happening?!"

Little Barda smiled as she said, "Yeah. We intercepted transmissions from her to the Psions about some small invasion."

Powerboy pointed his left thumb at Little Barda while he smiled and added, "We tracked them to your planet and have been monitoring them for a few days now."

Robin glared at them with steam coming out of his ears as he said, "And you didn't warn us about them?!"

Val-Yor had his fists on his sides as he snubbed, "We can handle them ourselves. Besides, they Psions aren't interested in any of you."

Speedy then curiously asked, "What do you mean?"

Val-Yor held his right palm out toward them as he answered, "The Psions are only interested in prime specimens for their experiments. They only wanted your friends with strong and unique powers. They have no use for you powerless kids."

The others glared at him before Robin demanded, "Where are they?!"

Val-Yor showed a blank expression as he answered, "They've setup a temporary base where they've taken all of their captives."

Powerboy pulled out a rectangular device that was a portable computer and it projected a hologram of Earth with red dot somewhere in Canada.

While this was shown Powerboy explained, "It's at these coordinates."

Little Barda smiled as she clinched her fists and eagerly said, "We're going to beat those lousy lizards and catch that Tamaranean thief!"

Robin pointed his right thumb at himself as he seriously declared, "Then we're going too."

Val-Yor sternly glared at them as he said, "No."

Red X also objected as he said, "Yeah sorry kid. Nothing in it for me."

Ravager walked up next to him and gently elbowed him as she smirked flirtatiously and said, "Come on bonehead. If you help us out I might give you a kiss later."

Red X looked at her with a happy look in his eyes as he slyly said, "Now that's a reward I could enjoy."

Cheshire joined Speedy as she flirtatiously said, "And if William Tell is going then I'm in."

Speedy blushed bright red as he stared at her awkwardly, but Val-Yor stubbornly said, "No! You Earth kids are not coming!"

Little Barda folded her arms as she arrogantly said, "Yeah! You guys will just get in our way!"

Powerboy showed a similar expression as he scorned, "Yeah, you guys don't even have any real powers."

Flamebird stepped forward as she proudly said, "We don't need powers."

Val-Yor remained stubborn as he said, "You kids have spunk, I'll give you that, but your tricks and toys will only get you so far."

Robin defiantly pointed at Val-Yor before turning to Herald while he said, "We're going! Whether you like it or not! Herald, get us there!"

He smiled as he held his trumpet and said, "On it!"

He blew his horn and opened a portal to the alien base in a forest in Canada, and everyone stepped through it, including Val-Yor, Powerboy, and Little Barda.

Little Barda and Powerboy were somewhat impressed as Powerboy looked at his device and said, "Wow! I was gonna open up a Boom Tube but this works too."

The portal closed behind them while Val-Yor just let out a groan of annoyance while the others hid behind trees and bushes. They stared at the base, which looked like a high-tech fortress the size of an office building with a round pointed tower in the center. Robin examined the base with high-tech binoculars and spotted dozens of armed Psions patrolling the perimeter.

Robin lowered his binoculars as he commented, "Heavily fortified and highly guarded."

Flamebird leaned closer to him as she asked, "So what's the plan?"

Before Robin could answer Val-Yor pointed at them as he strictly said, "The plan is you all stay out here while Little Barda, Powerboy, and I go in and battle the Psions and their troq. Kids, get ready."

Powerboy smiled eagerly as he clinched his fists, which were glowing with bright pink energy while he floated in the air. Little Barda pulled out two items, in her right hand she held a club-like weapon known as a Mega Rod and in her right hand she held a small red device known as an Aero-disc. The red Aero-disc expanded to the size of a shield with sharp edges, and Little Barda let it float in the air before she stood on it with an eager grin.

She held her Mega Rod in both hands as she enthusiastically said, "Let's beat some Psions!"

Robin was shocked as he angrily said, "You can't just charge in head on! They'll destroy you!"

Val-Yor frowned at Robin before smiling arrogantly and pounding his fist while he pompously said, "You can't we can. The Psions are dangerous but they're no match for our strength!"

Robin desperately warned him, "They've captured our strongest, most powerful members! The three of you are no match for them!"

Val-Yor did not listen as he arrogantly said, "We'll be fine, I've faced worse odds. You all just wait out here and stay out of sight. We'll free your friends and take that troq thief off your hands."

Powerboy smiled as he overconfidently said, "Yeah, you all just relax. We'll handle the hard stuff."

Val-Yor started marching toward the base as Powerboy and Little Barda started to follow until Robin grabbed Little Barda's wrist.

They both looked at Robin who seriously said, "I'll give you two a little warning, Val-Yor may seem like an amazing hero but he's not as great as he thinks he is. Be careful about who you choose as your mentor."

They both glanced at Val-Yor before Powerboy brushed off the warning and said, "You just don't like how he talks about your girlfriend."

Little Barda pulled her arm away from Robin, who folded his arms and said, "Don't say I didn't warn you."

Val-Yor then ordered, "Kids, let's move."

They followed him and left the Titans, but they both showed a bit of unease and reluctance while looking at each other. Unbeknownst to them, Robin had secretly planted a bug on Little Barda's cape while Robin put in an earpiece to listen. Meanwhile, inside the base all of the captured Titans were being held in a giant cellblock, placed in separate cells. Each cell was designed to contain certain Titans, some were more secure than others with more technology than others. Some were restrained by mechanical devices designed for their strength and power, while some were only held by force-field cell doors. They were all desperately trying to escape as they struggled in vain, some could barely move their arms and legs while others desperately pounded their force-field cell doors. The cellblock was tall with different floors as there were bridges and catwalks for all of the cells that had five floors. On the top level were Starfire, Cyborg, Raven, and Beast Boy; Cyborg was strapped to a high-tech table with metal restraints over his legs and upper body. Raven was strapped to a vertical table with high-tech restraints over her hands and feet preventing her from using her powers. In his cell, Beast Boy had a high-tech collar around his neck that he could not pry off as he snarled and angrily pounded his fists against his force-field door. Starfire was the only one not in a cell as she had large mechanical restraints over her hands and feet as she was held in a large floating device. She grunted as she desperately struggled but could not break free or use her starbolts or eyebeams in any way.

She stopped struggling when she looked to see Blackfire come out of a door as she sarcastically said, "Everyone comfy?"

Beast Boy had his hands on his cell door as he joked, "Actually I'd like a soda."

Blackfire smiled coyly as she joked, "Sorry, fresh out."

Starfire glared at her with hatred as she furiously yelled, "You are a clorbag varblernelk!"

Blackfire smiled sadistically as she said, "Don't be rude little sister, we've gathered everyone of value and soon we'll be ready for departure. Your friends will love the Psion home-world."

Starfire shut her eyes as she defiantly yelled, "Your plan shall fail! Robin will come and…"

Blackfire interrupted as she turned around and walked away while she snidely said, "Sorry, your boyfriend's not allowed. We already got all the powerful ones. Your precious Robin stands no chance against us."

Starfire kept glaring at Blackfire as she defiantly said, "You will be amazed by what Robin is truly capable of."

Suddenly they all heard a crash and turned to the door at the end of the cellblock as they crashes, rumbles and explosions. Suddenly the door was broken down and Val-Yor flew in along with Powerboy and Little Barda as they looked around.

Starfire was baffled as she said, "Val-Yor?!"

Blackfire floated with her hands on her hips as she annoyedly said, "Oh great, this guy."

Over a hundred Psions then entered the cellblock with laser rifles as Val-Yor said, "You two handle the Psions, I'll take the troq outcast!"

Powerboy smiled excitedly as he said, "You got it Val!"

Val-Yor flew toward Blackfire with his fists out while Powerboy and Little Barda both started fighting the Psions. Blackfire saw Val-Yor coming and threw a few starbolts at him but he dodged them before tackling her and throwing her at a wall.

He looked at Starfire with a bit of disdain as he said, "It's your lucky day troq, I'm here to free you and your friends."

Blackfire immediately flew back at Val-Yor and punched him in the face, knocking him back, but he recovered and tried to punch her. She dodged it and then he tried to punch her two more times but she dodged both attempts before he shot red lasers from his eyes and blasted her to the floor.

He looked down at her as arrogantly said, "Surrender and I'll go easy on you, older troq."

Blackfire immediately got up and threw a starbolt up at his face, blasting him up into the air, then she savagely punched him in the face twice before performing a dropkick on him. He crashed on the top floor and looked up at her with a bit of surprise as she smiled psychotically at him.

She kept floating while her eyes glowed purple and she said, "I'm not like my little sister, Vernathian!"

She pulled both her hands back and fired a ray of her purple starbolt energy down at Val-Yor, whose eyes widened before he hastily got out of the way.

He and Blackfire kept watching while Starfire amazedly said, "This is quite unexpected."

Raven agreed as she said, "I'll say."

Powerboy flew and swiftly dodged lasers shot at him before punched three Psions and knocked them out promptly. He then held his hands out and fired pink blasts of energy that knocked down a few Psions, then he created a giant hand that swatted a bunch of other Psions away.

The captured Titans watched with amazement as Beast Boy asked, "Who are those guys?"

Cyborg was pleasantly surprised as he honestly said, "I don't know, but if they're here to help us I'm not complaining."

Little Barda flew at some Psions on her large Aero-Disc and swung her Mega Rod at them and knocked them out. She stopped and hovered before flying sideways as she repeatedly fired lasers from the top of her rod and shot Psions on one of the catwalks. She smiled until she saw a bunch of other Psions standing together as they simultaneously fired their laser rifles at her. She immediately landed while a handle came out of her Aero-Disc and she held it up to shield herself from the laser blasts. She successfully blocked their shots before her Mega Rod became like a whip with the parts disconnecting and being held together by powerful glowing cables of energy. She lashed her whip at the Psions and knocked them down before the Mega Rod retracted back to its original shape. She then threw her Aero-Disc like a large frisbee as it hit two Psions in the face and knocked them out before it returned to her.

She held her Aero-Disc as a shield again as she bravely yelled, "Come on! Is that all you got?!"

One Psion suddenly pressed a button and a bunch of automatic defenses came out of the walls and ceiling and aimed at them.

She and Powerboy both showed scared expressions as Beast Boy sympathized, "Been there done that."

Several turrets fired powerful laser blasts at Powerboy and blasted him out of the air as he let out a loud cry of pain. He crashed down next to Little Barda and groaned as he got back on his feet when a bunch of turrets rapidly fired blasts at them. He immediately threw his hands out and created a pink force-field dome over himself and Little Barda to block the blasts. He struggled to maintain it as the blasts were powerful and kept coming and then the Psions all rapidly fired their laser rifles.

Seeing Powerboy struggle, Little Barda immediately became worried as she yelled, "Val-Yor! We need help!"

Powerboy desperately tried to maintain his force-field but they were all too much as it was breached as he cried in exhaustion. He and Little Barda cried in pain as they were bombarded with laser blasts while the Titans watched and gasped in horror. They were knocked and fell to the floor when the Psions surrounded them and prepared to capture them. Meanwhile Val-Yor was still fighting Blackfire by himself when he looked and saw Powerboy and Little Barda get knocked out.

He held his hand out toward them as he cried, "Kids!"

Blackfire immediately punched him and knocked him onto the top floor before she gloated, "Thanks for bringing us these two new specimens. A nice little bonus. I'm sure the Psions will have fun with them back on their world."

Val-Yor immediately clinched his fists as he flew at Blackfire and defiantly yelled, "Not if I can help it troq!"

His eyes glowed red before he shot the lasers from them, but Blackfire countered them with her purple eyebeams. Her eyebeams collided with his and caused a small explosion, then Blackfire flew through the smoke cloud and punched Val-Yor in the face. He stayed in the air as he tried to punch her twice but Blackfire dodged both his fists before kicking him in the stomach. Both her fists glowed purple with her starbolt energy before she rapidly beat Val-Yor with them as he let out loud cries of pain. She came at him but he grabbed her arm and whirled him over his shoulder before throwing her down to the top floor. He flew down at her with his fists out and slammed her through the top floor, but she recovered and held his fists in place as she flew up toward him. They were both in the floating in the air with Val-Yor on top and Blackfire on the bottom as she tried to overpower him. He smiled arrogantly as he appeared to have the upper hand, but she smiled deviously before she used her Nova power.

Her whole body glowed purple and Val-Yor's smile vanished as he began to struggle while she pushed him up and then slammed him into the ceiling. He held his head in pain before Blackfire brutally started beating him as she knocked him around while he let out loud cries of pain. Blackfire viciously punched him in the stomach, kicked him in the face, then rammed him in the stomach with both her fists out. She then finished him as she kicked him and sent him crashing down to the bottom floor before he groaned and desperately tried to get back up. His eyes widened as he saw the Nova Blackfire flying straight down toward him before she crashed into him, causing an explosion of her starbolt energy. Everyone watched in shock as the smoke cleared with Blackfire looking normal and Val-Yor lying on the floor as he groaned in pain before losing consciousness.

Blackfire smiled triumphantly as she folded her arms and gloated, "Beings like you always underestimate Tamaraneans."

A Psion joined her as he curiously asked, "Mam, what shall we do with the prisoners?"

Blackfire pointed her thumb at Powerboy and Little Barda before putting her hands on her hips as she said, "Put these two in holding cells and prepare for launch. Oh, and get rid of this troq."

Some of the Psions placed Little Barda and Powerboy in cells as they got machines ready to contain them, and others started dragging away Val-Yor. Blackfire had a maniacal smile of triumph, unaware of the bug planted on Little Barda's came as it had a red blinking light. Outside, Robin was listening to everything while everyone else was gathered behind him as they still hid in the forest.

He took the earpiece out as he turned to everyone else and urgently explained, "They've been captured."

Red X folded his arms as he pouted and complained, "No surprise there. So I guess we have go in and save them."

Robin was gravely serious as he said, "Yes, and we have an even bigger problem. This base isn't a base, it's a spaceship and they're preparing to takeoff."

Some of the others gasped in shocked as Speedy urgently said, "Then we'd better hurry and think of something!"

Robin spoke hastily as he said, "They're planning to dispose of Val-Yor! We have to save him!"

They all looked at him as they cocked their eyebrows in shock and disbelief as they showed disdain for Val-Yor.

Robin narrowed his eyes as he bitterly said, "I'm not happy about it either, but we need him if we're going to pull this off. Now let's go!"

They all followed him as he ran toward the ship and managed to successfully make it inside without being seen by Psions or the automatic defenses. Once inside they quietly snuck through the hallways without anyone seeing them as they stuck to the shadows. They spotted a couple of Psions dragging an unconscious Val-Yor through the hallway, so Robin made hand signals at the others. Speedy and Cheshire both knocked out the two Psions and dragged Val-Yor to the side, while Hardware flew by and got rid of the Psions. Suddenly they all heard a noise as the entire hallway started shaking and rumbling and they all braced themselves.

The ship then took off and started flying into the sky as Red X annoyedly said, "Houston, we have lift off!"

In the cellblock all the captured Titans desperately tried to escape but could escape any of their cells or restraints.

On the bridge, Blackfire pushed a button as her voice sounded throughout the ship as she said, "Alright little sister, we're on our way. You and your friends enjoy the flight and we'll have you at Maltus in no time."

She laughed maniacally while Robin and the others all glared at the ceiling in spite as Robin had every intention of stopping Blackfire.

Commercial break

Hardware punched Val-Yor in the face and managed to wake him up as he groaned and said, "Oh my head! What happened?"

The others were gathered around him as they hid in a storage room as Robin said, "Blackfire beat you and captured Powerboy and Little Barda."

Val-Yor then remembered and noticed they were in the ship as he angrily asked, "What are you all doing here? I told you all to wait outside!"

Red X folded his arms as he sarcastically remarked, "It was getting nippy."

Ravager then seriously said, "We weren't just going to stand by and do nothing, so we came in after you three got your butts kicked."

Val-Yor then asked, "How'd you all know I lost?"

Robin promptly explained, "I planted a bug on Little Barda before you went in. I heard everything."

Hardware pointed at Val-Yor as he said, "You got your butt kicked so we came in to save you."

Val-Yor then stood up as he stubbornly said, "She just got lucky. We'll see how she does in round 2."

Flamebird went up to Val-Yor as she fiercely said, "No! You had your chance! You tried it your way and failed! Now it's our turn!"

Risk agreed as he exclaimed, "Yeah!"

Val-Yor folded his arms as he stubbornly said, "If I couldn't beat them what makes you kids think you can stop them?"

Jericho walked up to Val-Yor and stared him in the eyes before he possessed him, then he made Val-Yor punch himself in the face, knocking himself to the floor. Jericho left Val-Yor's body as they all looked down at him as he looked somewhat spooked at Jericho.

Val-Yor then admitted, "Okay, that was pretty impressive."

Ravager smiled proudly as she said, "We might not have superstrength, speed, or invulnerability, but we're not powerless."

Val-Yor begrudgingly stood up as he asked, "Fine, what's the plan?"

Robin showed a serious expression as he said, "Their ship launched and is on its way to Maltus, we have to save the others and get out of here fast!"

Val-Yor then cocked an eyebrow as he said, "So you want to takeover the ship and steer it back to Earth?"

Robin shook his head with his arms folded as he said, "No. We need to free the others, destroy this ship, and escape."

Val-Yor dismissed Robin's plan as he said, "That'll never work. There's too many Psions. Even if you free the others they'll be ready to jump before you can fight back."

Robin smiled slyly as he said, "That's where you come in."

Val-Yor was confused as he said, "Me?"

Robin smiled as he pointed at Val-Yor and said, "We need a diversion. You'll draw their attention while we save our friends. Can you fly outside and slow this ship down?"

Val-Yor smiled eagerly as he said, "I think I can handle that."

He immediately took flight and left the storage room as he flew down the hallway and proceeded to an airlock while Robin and the others made their way through the ship. They ambushed a single Psion as Jericho possessed him and smiled at the others as he led the way to the cellblock. Val-Yor was ejected from the airlock as he flew around outside the Psion ship and shot red laser beams from his eyes at the hull. He wasn't doing much damage but he had gained the Psions' attention as started flying toward the bridge of the ship.

One Psion looked at Blackfire and said, "Mam, our ship is under attack."

Val-Yor suddenly flew in front of the bridge's window and looked inside as he yelled, "Hey troq! Come out here and fight me, one on one!"

Blackfire was mildly annoyed as she said, "Val-Yor, he really doesn't know when to quit. Activate the defenses."

Some turrets on the sides of the ship started firing powerful laser blasts at Val-Yor but he flew through space and dodged them. He flew straight at one with his fists out and destroyed it, but then the others kept shooting at him as he narrowly dodged them.

Blackfire smiled arrogantly as she bragged, "If he thinks he's superior to me than he needs a reality check."

Val-Yor kept flying around outside the ship as he shot his eye lasers and destroyed another turret and smiled proudly. However, some Psions manned some laser cannons and tried to shoot him as he narrowly dodged their blasts. Meanwhile, Jericho made it to the cellblock as he looked around and saw all the captured Titans and stopped when he spotted Kole. She looked sad as she had her hands against the force-field of her cell when Jericho walked up to her; since he was in the body of the Psion she did not recognize him.

Kole glared at Jericho as she said, "What do you want space lizard?!"

Jericho glanced around to make sure no one was watching before he smiled sweetly and said, "Maybe dinner and a movie when we get back home."

He winked at her and Kole recognized his eyes and smiled with hope as she said, "Jericho?"

He immediately shushed her before glancing around and said, "We're here to save you. Keep quiet and get ready."

He then placed an explosive device from Robin on the wall between cells and the others saw this and started to get happy.

Powerboy and Little Barda desperately tried to escape their cells until Robin came and Little Barda said, "It's you."

Robin shushed her before glancing around and said, "We're here to help."

Powerboy then sheepishly said, "Guess you were right about Val."

Robin swiped his hand through the air as he said, "That doesn't matter now. We're here to free you and we could use your help getting everyone out of here."

They both nodded before Robin put one explosive device on the wall between their cells and then he stealthily ran off. Red X teleported in front of cells holding the Titans South before he slapped red X-shaped bombs on their cells as they started blinking. He teleported away and hid, then Flamebird planted some explosives on the cells holding Thunder, Lightning, Skitter, Bombshell, and Prysm before swiftly running off. Blank Slate found Shortcut, Gargoyle, Serpenteen, and Blockade and hushed them when they saw him, then Ravager joined him and planted bombs on the walls between their cells. Golden Eagle flew to the cells holding his teammates as he planted his own bombs on their cell doors and flew away. Hardware was hovering in the air near the ceiling of the brig as he kept an eye out for Psions while Bushido, Risk, Speedy, and Cheshire secured most of the exits. Meanwhile on the bridge Blackfire watched monitors as Val-Yor kept narrowly dodging the blasts fired at him.

She smiled arrogantly before growing suspicious and walking out while she said, "Ha! Val-Yor is the inferior one if he really thinks he can beat us like this! Wait something's not right. Val-Yor wouldn't try something this stupid. Keep firing at him, I have something I need to check on."

Back in the cellblock, Robin made his way to the top floor as he smiled at Beast Boy, Cyborg, and Raven before silently hurrying to Starfire.

He then softly said, "Starfire."

She saw him and her face lit up with joy as she whispered, "Robin!"

Cyborg, Raven, and Beast Boy smiled as Beast Boy said, "Sweet!"

Robin wasted no time as he planted two explosives on the walls between Beast Boy, Raven, and Cyborg's cells before hurrying to the device holding Starfire.

Robin then showed a serious expression as he solemnly whispered, "Don't worry. We're getting all of you out of here."

Starfire smiled lovingly as she said, "I knew you would come."

He smiled up at her but then his eyes widened in shock as he heard Blackfire evilly say, "How sweet, you came all this way for your princess."

He turned around to see Blackfire floating right in front of him as she smiled evilly; Robin reached for his utility belt but Blackfire flew and grabbed him before he could do so.

She pinned him against the wall as Starfire cried, "Robin!"

She had him pinned to the wall with her right hand as she arrogantly gloated, "I told you, we only needed the strong ones. But since you're here too I guess the Psions might use you for some of their experiments."

Robin pulled out a handheld detonator as he grinned slyly and said, "Sorry, we're not guinea pigs."

He pushed the button and his bombs blew up, freeing Beast Boy from his cell along with Little Barda as they hurried to help the others.

Blackfire turned and saw this as she was enraged and said, "What?!"

Little Barda grabbed her Mega Rod and Aero-Disc and freed Powerboy from his restraints while Beast Boy managed to free Raven. Once her hands and legs were free she used her black magic to pry the collar off of Beast Boy, then he went to Cyborg and morphed into a bear as he swung his claws and freed him.

He smiled as he happily got up and yelled, "Booyah!"

Red X activated his bombs to open the Titans South's cells as he happily said, "Jailbreak!"

Kole and Gnarrk were also freed as they and Jericho went to free the rest of the Titans North from their restraints. Ravager's bombs also freed some of the other Titans while Golden Eagle's bombs freed the rest of the Titans West. As each Titan was freed they used their respective powers to help the others and freed the members whose cells at not been blown open.

Blackfire angrily pulled out a communication device as she said, "Security to the brig! The prisoners are escaping! Get everyone here, and send in our attack dog!"

While she was distracted Robin kicked Blackfire off of him as he fell to the floor and she stood up and glared at him.

He pulled out a disc and threw it at her, but she leaned to the side and dodged it before gloating, "You missed!"

Robin had a clever smile as he said, "I wasn't aiming for you."

Blackfire curiously turned to see the disc hit Starfire's containment device and shock it with electricity, deactivating it and freeing her. Starfire's fists and eyes glowed green as she flew at Blackfire and tackled her into the wall and started fighting her fiercely. While they fought Psion reinforcements entered the cellblock along with flying security drones as they fired red lasers at the freed Titans. Some of them fought off the drones and Psions while others continued freeing the other captured Titans. Cyborg, Beast Boy, and Raven joined the fight as Cyborg blasted some drones with his right sonic cannon and Raven chopped some in half with flying blades of her black magic. Beast Boy morphed into a rhino and plowed his way through a crowd of Psions while Bushido sliced one's laser rifle in half before kicking him down. The turrets activated and rapidly fired laser blasts at some of the Titans but Hardware activated both his Omni-Cannons and fired blue laser blasts that destroyed some of them. Rocket also used her belt to create an inertia field around herself and some other Titans to shield them form the laser blasts. Blue Beetle hovered in the air as he crafted his plasma cannons over his arms and rapidly fired them at the turrets, destroying several. Speedy shot some of his arrows at some drones before Aqualad ran to his side and knocked out a Psion that tried toa attack him. Skitter webbed a few Psions to a wall before climbing up another wall and webbing up one of the turrets so it couldn't fire. Meanwhile outside, Val-Yor ripped a cannon out of the cockpit and threw it at a turret, causing a huge explosion.

He noticed the cannons weren't firing as much, so he smiled and said, "Looks like the kids are causing the Psions some problems. Might need my help."

In the cellblock, more than half of the Titans had been freed when Hot Spot threw a fireball at a Psion attacking Argent from behind. They both flew and freed Omen, who held her hands out and crossed them as she telekinetically made two drones crash into each other. A bunch of laser blasts were fired at them but Prysm flew in front of them and absorbed the blasts, then she fired rays that destroyed a bunch of turrets and drones. A Psion came at them but Risk came and kicked his weapon out of his hands before punching him with his bionic arm.

He smiled at them as he happily said, "Just like old times, huh guys?"

Argent smiled flirtatiously at Hot Spot as she said, "Yeah. Brings back memories doesn't it Hot Spot?"

He smiled sheepishly as he rubbed the back of his head before they separated and started helping all the others. Powerboy smashed two drones with his fists before creating a giant mallet of his pink energy and destroying one turret. Argent flew beside him and created a giant boomerang of her red energy and threw it out as it destroyed several drones before returning and disappearing. Powerboy was amazed and then smiled eagerly as he kept fighting while Little Barda flew on her Aero-Disc and fired red laser blasts from her Mega Rod. On the top floor Robin watched Starfire fight Blackfire as he waited for a chance to help, as he did not want to jump in and ruin things for Starfire. Blackfire shot her eyebeams at Starfire but she blocked them with a small shield of her starbolt energy, then she shot a ray of her starbolt energy. Blackfire dodged it before flying at Starfire and tackling her as she slammed her into the wall before Starfire headbutted her off. She then flew at her and they locked hands while floating in the air and rotating as they tried to overpower each other.

Robin watched until Val-Yor flew next to him and smiled as he said, "Looks like you kids are having a party here."

He then saw Starfire and Blackfire fighting as they shot their eyebeams while holding each other, causing a small explosion, but it did not blow them apart.

Val-Yor then clinched his fists as he glared and said, "There's that dark princess! I'll teach her to mess with me!"

Robin tried to stop him as he hastily said, "Val-Yor wait!"

He did not listen as he flew at them with his arms out as he approached Blackfire, but she spun around and Val-Yor tackled Starfire by mistake.

They crashed into the wall and got up as Val-Yor rudely said, "You got in my way troq!"

She glared at him as she said, "No! You interfered with me!"

Blackfire smiled tauntingly as she said, "Ha! Nice shot Val-Yor! Looks like your aim is worse than a troq's."

Val-Yor glared at Starfire as he demanded, "Stay out of my way!"

He flew at Blackfire with his fists out and tried to punch her, but she blocked his fist and then kicked him in the stomach. Her eyes and fists glowed purple as she brutally punched him in several spots before slamming both fists against his face. She sent him flying across the cellblock as she smiled evilly, but then Starfire hit her with a starbolt from behind and knocked her to the floor a she cried in pain. Blackfire glared at her as Starfire prepared to attack again, but Blackfire saw Robin and smiled evilly as she fired a ray of her purple starbolt energy at him.

Starfire saw this and flew at him as she cried, "Robin!"

She flew in front of him and took the shot as she was blasted back while Robin watched in horror before holding his arms out to catch her. She crashed into him and they were both blasted off the top floor and went flying across the cellblock together. They were about to hit the bottom floor when Beast Boy turned into a sasquatch and caught them both in his arms.

He set them down before turning human as Cyborg and Raven joined them and Robin said, "Thanks guys."

They all suddenly heard a loud roar and Blackfire smiled evilly as she said, "Looks like our pet is ready for another playdate."

A huge hatch in the floor opened up and the two-headed monster rose up as both heads growled viciously.

Beast Boy couldn't stop staring at it as he said, "Dude! What is that thing?!"

Blackfire smiled evilly as before pointing at them as she said, "Some of the Psions' handiwork. Fusing together DNA from two different beasts they made this. Say hello to Double Header!"

Double Header's green head spewed a lot of slime that made a big puddle on the floor and Robin yelled, "Get clear!"

Everyone cleared the way before Double Header's orange head launched a fireball at the puddle of slime, causing a huge explosion. Double Header roared with both his heads before flapping his wings and taking flight and attacking some of the other Titans. Thunder shot a sonic blast at him and knocked him back, but he recovered and flew at him, swinging his tail at him. Double Header's orange head breathed a stream of fire but Kid Flash ran in front of him and moved his arms in circles at superspeed, causing gusts of wind that blew the fire back. It burned him a little but Double Header shook off the soot before flying down and landing as he slammed the floor with his fists. He caused a tremor that knocked some of the Titans off their feet until he cried in pain as he was hit by Val-Yor's laser eyes.

He smiled as he said, "You may have luck with these kids, but let's see how you handle me!"

He flew at Double Header with his fists out but Double Header spit a glob of slime at him from his green head before his orange head launched a fireball. The glob of slime hit Val-Yor and so did the fireball, causing an explosion that blasted him back and sent him crashing through walls of the ship before he hit the power core.

He damaged the power core and looked at it as it started making a noise and he said, "Well that's not good."

Mas and Menos stood in front of Double Header with Hot and Cold behind them; Mas and Menos joined hands while Hot and Cold fused together into their two-headed form. Mas and Menos ran around Double Header with superspeed, creating a small tornado around him until his orange head breathed fire and they had to run. Hot shot his head vision while Cold breathed his icy breath and they intersected and created a huge fog bank. Double Header could not see when suddenly he was hit by a starbolt, a sonic blast, then a machine encased in Raven's dark energy. He roared in anger as he looked around with both heads until one of Robin's discs came at him and shocked him. Beast Boy charged at Double Header as a T-Rex and slammed his head into both of his and knocked him on his back. He lost consciousness and Beast Boy turned human as his friends joined him with proud smiles and they looked around to see all of the Titans were free as they fought the Psions.

Blackfire was furious as she clinched her fists and exclaimed, "You Titans are about to be crushed!"

She released a shockwave of her purple starbolt energy from her body that blasted back flying Titans near her. Bombshell flew at her but Blackfire kicked her away before shooting her eyebeams at Miss Martian, making cry in agony. Prysm tried to blast her with a ray of energy but Blackfire dodged it before punching her in the face and sending her flying. She threw starbolts at Thunder and Lightning, knocking them both out of the air, then she threw a wave of starbolt energy at the floor. She caused a big explosion that knocked back a bunch of Titans and they all looked at her as she glared furiously with her eyes glowing purple.

Cyborg was shocked as he said, "Blackfire's gone crazy!"

She fired to rays of her starbolt energy out and hit Red Star and Powerboy as she blasted them both into the back walls.

Cyborg then said, "Well crazier."

Val-Yor then flew back in and hastily said, "Sorry to spoil your fun but we have to get out of here! The power core's critical and the ship's gonna blow!"

Suddenly he was hit by a big purple starbolt and Blackfire furiously yelled, "No one is going anywhere!"

She kept throwing starbolts at everyone while they dodged and Starfire seriously said, "We must defeat her now if we are escape!"

Raven blocked one starbolt with a force-field before dropping it as she said, "I'm open to suggestions."

Robin then looked at Starfire as he smiled slyly and said, "Starfire, I think it's time we give Blackfire the Human Birdarang."

He held his hand out toward her and Starfire smiled as she took his hand and carried him as she flew to Blackfire with great speed. She saw them coming but smiled as she prepared to blast them while Robin put an electric brass-knuckles on his other hand while Starfire's freehand glowed green. Blackfire shot a ray of starbolt energy at them but they dodged it as Starfire kept holding onto Robin while flipping him over to where his feet were pointing at Blackfire. Robin then ignited powerful Rocket thrusters in his boots while Starfire flew in the opposite direction, with her hand still glowing green. They kept holding onto each other as Robin's thrusters burned and the two of them spun horizontally through the air as they came flying toward Blackfire. Her eyes stopped glowing purple as she gasped in fright as Robin and Starfire both crashed into her, as Starfire's glowing green hand hit her and Robin shocked her with his electric brass knuckles. She cried in agony before they all hit the floor and Blackfire groaned before losing consciousness while Robin and Starfire stood over her.

The others cheered as Powerboy amazedly said, "Whoa! Awesome move!"

Little Barda happily agreed as she said, "Yeah! Nice teamwork!"

Val-Yor spoiled their fun as he said, "Yes, good job. Now we all have to get out of here!"

Robin smiled confidently as he said, "No problem. Raven, Herald."

They both smiled and nodded as Herald blew his horn and opened a portal in Jump City while Raven encased her friends and Blackfire in her dark energy. She made a giant Raven that flew out of the ship with her and them inside while the others went through Herald's portal. Val-Yor flew out of the ship along with Powerboy, Blue Beetle, Hardware, and Red Star who was glowing red. When they were clear of the Psion ship it exploded and the Titans all arrived safely in Jump City as Herald's portal closed behind them. Raven's giant raven also landed and disappeared while Val-Yor landed with Red Star, Powerboy, Hardware, and Blue Beetle. Blackfire laid unconscious on the street and they had also brought Double Header with them as Cyborg contacted the police.

Starfire lovingly kissed Robin on the lips while Val-Yor cringed, but Starfire smiled as she said, "I thank you for rescuing me Robin. And to the rest of you for your bravery.

The Titans who had previously been captured happily applauded before Val-Yor admitted, "Alright, I have to admit you all did pretty good. I guess not having powers or being strong doesn't make you weak."

Robin then eyed Val-Yor as he pointed his left thumb at Starfire and asked, "What about Starfire?"

Everyone waited as Val-Yor let out a weary sigh and said, "Okay, you're alright, for a Tamaranean. I guess you're not totally useless. I definitely like you better than your troq sister."

Raven looked at Robin and Starfire as she realistically said, "That's probably the best you're gonna get from him."

Robin nodded in agreement and while they all kept talking Red X backed away from the group into the shadows of an alley to make his escape.

He turned around but before he could leave he heard Ravager say, "X?"

He stopped to see her walking toward him as she smiled and said, "Before you make your getaway, there's something I need to give you."

She grabbed him and pulled the bottom of his mask up to reveal his mouth as she kissed him on the lips passionately.

She released him and he pulled his mask back over his mouth and she softly joked, "X marks the spot."

Red X blushed a bit before he said, "See you around Rav."

He teleported away and near another alley, Cheshire dragged Speedy into the darkness while he asked, "What are you doing?"

She took her mask off and smiled sweetly before kissing him on the lips as he blushed bright red before she pulled away from him.

She kept smiling at him while she kindly said, "Next time let's see if you beat a bad guy before I have to come save you."

She put her mask on and climbed up the side of a building until she reached the rooftops and she disappeared into the night. Speedy watched her with a goofy smile on his face before he came back to reality and joined his friends. Sometime later, the police came and they loaded Double Header into a specially armed transport with mechanical restraints. Blackfire was also now awake but Val-Yor apprehended her with mechanical restraints that neutralized all of her powers.

She had a bitter expression as he pushed her into his ship and said, "Come on troq! It's back to Centauri prison for you!"

She bitterly got in and took one last glance at Starfire while she declared, "One day I will make you pay little sister! Then we'll see who the real troq is!"

Val-Yor shoved her into his ship before turning and saying, "Come on Powerboy, Little Barda, it's time to go."

Little Barda folded her arms as she defied, "No."

Val-Yor was baffled as he said, "What?!"

Little Barda did not budge as she said, "We're not going with you. We thought you were the greatest hero ever, but you're just a bad cop."

Powerboy agreed as he glared at Val-Yor before smiling at the Titans while he said, "Yeah! We followed your lead and it got us captured and almost destroyed. But these Titans came through and helped us out! I think we're gonna stay here for a while."

Starfire put her hands together as she happily said, "I gladly welcome you two to our alliance."

Robin gave them both Communicators as he proudly said, "Yeah, now you're both honorary Titans."

They smiled at their Communicators as Little Barda proudly said, "I like the sound of that."

Val-Yor sneered them as he pompously said, "You two do what you want but I think you're wasting your potential."

He went to his ship and they watched him take off before Raven asked, "What are the odds that Blackfire will STAY in prison this time, or that she won't escape Val-Yor before he can get her there?"

Robin smiled with confidence as he folded his arms and said, "Even if she returns we'll be ready for whatever she throws at us. No matter what our powers are, as long as we look out for each other everything will be fine."

Starfire happily took his arm and said, "Very well put Robin."

Credits

Author's note: That's it for this one. It was somewhat similar to a Teen Titans GO Comic issue. I had two ideas for episode that I mixed together, where Blackfire returns and where Robin has to team up with all the nonpowered or low-powered Titans. I also decided to create my own new enforcer as I created Double Header, a two headed monster created by aliens. We'll see him again in future episodes and I'm sure you'll all like what I do with him. We'll also see Val-Yor again, and this time things will be a bit different. I also read about Little Barda and Powerboy online and wanted to put them in this. I made up weapons for Little Barda to use to make her different from Big Barda, the Aero-Disc was my own idea. Please review.
