The Teen Titans left me out to dry, so I kinda don’t own them. Although I do own Judy. . . So there!


Jenette walked down a hall in their new headquarters. Her heels loudly tapping the cold floor and echoed eerily off the walls. She had a frustrated look with her arms crossed across her chest. She passed many doors and large windows that showed massive rooms with scientists performing procedures on cloning subjects. And as it would seem, Blade and Robin were not the only ones being cloned.

She reached a fork in the hallway and a sign hung near the ceiling read:

Genetic Material And DNA: Left
Operation Frost: Right

She read the last line twice.

“That’s what Richard was talking about.” She headed to the right, “Do they really think we can do something of this stature. The limits are endless but still, to bring back someone as psychotic as Frost, is just that. Psychotic.”

“Do they not realize the power that man once held, when he comes back do they think we will still be in charge? No, he’s going to take over and completely change this whole operation and there won’t be anything we can do about. I’ve got to stop Richard before it’s too late. Because when he comes, genocide is a certainty.” She opened a set of double doors and disappeared behind them.

Robin sat awkwardly in a chair across from Blade, who was glaring at Robin as if he had kidnapped his child. Robin, who felt extremely uncomfortable at the time, had no problem with Blade. Blade, on the other hand, seemed to hate Robin with a passion. They were left alone in a study while Raven went to retrieve the other Titans.

‘Will she please hurry back, I don’t know whether to talk or prepare to fight. This is maddening!’ Robin thought.

Then just say something

‘Like what, what could I possibly say to start a conversation with this guy? I remember this one time, at band camp-’ A grunt from Blade cut off Robin’s mental rant, apparently he was growing bored.

“Uh, so you like the place?” Robin didn’t have to slap himself, it seemed as if J did for him, as he now had a minor headache.

“It’s fine, what happened while I was gone?” He asked, like he was just waiting for Robin to talk. Robin was at first taken aback at his sudden energy, but regained his composure.

“Well, they seemed to have clones ready to fight. One clone, the very first prototype I suppose. He pretended to be you, when we went back to look for you in that underground building. We fell for a trap-”

“Stairs.” Blade said, cutting Robin off. Robin just nodded.

“And he showed up, I knew he wasn’t you because he smelled different, acted different too. But he leaded us out, attacked me and informed us of a large scale attack on my Tower. I ordered the Titans to leave and take care of that while I took care of C-1. That’s what he called himself. I think I defeated him, we ended up in the sewer, a rush of water came through and I escaped before he could so. . . Then, I ended up back here and fought of some remaining clones and it was over. And now we’re here.” Robin finished and Blade just sat there.

He was actually kind of impressed they were able to handle something of that size. And he was a little angry at himself because he wasn’t there to fight too.

“So, why did you disappear? Haven’t seen you since that night in the place. You disappeared and that was that.?” Blade leaned back in his chair.

‘In all actuality, it’s none of his business. But I might just owe him an explanation to why I was gone. Since we seem to have formed a silent partnership.’ Blade leaned forward and crossed his fingers.

“After I had escaped those dogs, by running through that door. I almost fell for the trap on the stairs, but I caught myself. After awhile they closed back and I continued down the stairs. And, then I ran into Richard, he’s a level higher than Jenette in ranking. I may have underestimated him, but he was easily defeated. It would seem as if some unfinished clones came and helped him retreat. Leaving me in a room with no way out. That is until I found a way out near the northern side of the room. It lead to the sewer, I climbed out and had to walk to get my bike. Then headed to my hideout to regroup everything.” Blade sat back in his chair and looked around the room. And that’s when Raven and the rest of the Titans came through the door and down the stairs.

“Hello Blade, been awhile.” Cyborg said, Blade nodded to him.

“I thought you two didn‘t know each other.” Beastboy asked either one.

“Kind of, he saved my life once awhile back. Didn’t think it was a big deal.” He said truthfully.

“Yeah, kinda been friends ever since even though we don’t keep in touch. Then again, he is Blade.” Cyborg told them, Beastboy nodded and looked towards Robin. Who was talking to Raven.

“What we need is bait, something to get them out of hiding.” Raven told Robin, but Blade jumped in.

“Do you know anyone they would love to kill? Or do you have something they need?” Blade asked them, They all put on their thinking caps. Then Starfire jumped up.
“They seem to really want to kill you, friend Robin.” Robin shook his head though.

“Nah, too risky, they already tried that and lost. What we need is someone to get them out of hiding. Someone who knows too much and isn’t a threat to them.” Robin thought.

“Someone like Judy.” Raven said, and they all looked at Beastboy. Who looked like he was up against the idea.


/--/-


Beastboy and Robin stood outside Judy’s door, Robin leaning on the wall by the door with his arms crossed, and Beastboy in front knocking. And after awhile, she opened the door and smiled the instant she saw Beastboy, she grinned from ear to ear.

Until she saw a look of regret on his face. She leaned out the door and looked at Robin, who had his eyes closed. Beastboy sighed and turned to her.

“We, uh, we kinda need you Judy.” Beastboy said.

“A block has come up in our case, we need someone to, bring them out of hiding. We, are too suspicious, but you, they wouldn’t know of. They should have no idea that you live with us, so you can easily attract them without any problems.” Robin told her, Judy looked like she hadn’t heard what Robin had said. She looked at Beastboy, then back at Robin, then back at Beastboy, who shrugged and had a look that showed he was sorry.


/--/-


The Titans, Blade, and Judy waited across the towns most popular vampire club in an alley. Judy was dressed in her sexiest outfit: stilettos, an extremely tight dress that stopped mid-thigh, and jewelry that defined her features. To keep it short, she was to die for. And Judy hated every second of it.

“Tell me why I have to do this.” Judy complained for the umpteenth time. Cyborg was attaching a mini camera and a microphone inside her skirt. Making him blush every time she squirmed.

“So you can finally go back to your own place with safety.” Robin told her.

“You want me to leave.” Judy whispered, hurt at Robin’s words. And Robin, who hadn’t meant that, felt a little stupid.

“That’s not what I said, look Judy, believe it or not, I like you. Since that day in that place, I’ve kinda thought of you as a sister. Uh, you don’t have to leave even when this is over, I just thought you wanted to.” He told her, she smiled at that.

“I’d love to stay Robin, I don’t wanna go anywhere. But I guess I have no choice.” She looked towards the club.

“How do I get in?” She wondered, since she was only 16.

“The age limit for this club are 16 and over, you are 16 aren’t you?” Robin asked her. She shook her head yes.

“So no worries, and take this.” Robin handed her a wad of 100 dollar bills.

“So you don’t have to wait in the line. Just flash it and he’ll let you in.” Cyborg said this time, and she nodded once more. Then she glanced at the club.

‘Bring it on baby.’ She silently thought, determination across her face.


/--/-


Judy walked throughout the club, looking over the surroundings so the Titans and Blade could get a good look of the place. She sat down at the bar to I.D the bartender. Since he seemed to be human, either a Familiar or a hapless man who found a good job.

“Hello lil’ lady, kind of drink would you like? We have all Coke and Pepsi products for the underage.” He asked her while putting away some bottles.

“Can you make me a Shirley Temple?” She asked him, he raised an eyebrow, then nodded. She turned around and looked for anybody worth trying to talk to. Since she was there to attract anyone worth attracting. Then the bartender knocked on the counter and handed her the drink. And that’s when someone came strolling up to her.

“Make that one on me Mike.” He told her, trying to sound cool. He had his hair slicked back and wore casual clothes. He didn’t seem to be a vampire, but the paleness of his skin proved that he was.

Robin, Blade, and everybody else, paid more attention to the screen now. As they were all in strategic positions outside the club. Beastboy though, was a flea hidden within her hair. And he suddenly felt jealous at this guys attitude.

“Hello, and who might you be?” Judy asked, trying to not sound suspicious.

“Joel Tyler, but my friends call me J.T. And your name is?”

“Judy, Judy Mason. You come here a lot?”

“Yep, you got me, I’ma regular. It would seem as if this is your first time.”

“Yeah, my friends thought it was time for me to get social.”

“Oh really, that’s how I ended up here. At first I was new in town and didn’t know anyone. But they forced me to come, now they can’t take me away.”

“Will you get the facts on this guy please! You’re looking for leads, not a boyfriend!” Robin yelled in her ear piece. She rolled her eyes.

“Um, when did you come to Jump City?”

“About a year ago.”

“That was when the Corporation first got here.” Blade told them.

“Ask him what his job is.” Blade told her.

“So, how did you find a job? I kinda don’t have one.”

“Oh, my job was originally stationed somewhere else, but I had to relocate when they did. Which is why I hadn’t known anyone.”

“Where getting somewhere. Judy, you seem to be good at this. Do you think you can get him drunk?” Robin asked her. She nodded quickly.

“So J.T, how old are you?” Judy said while eyeing the bar.

“Old enough to drink, why?”

“I lost my I.D, and I know he won’t get any alcohol without it. As I look young.”

“Yeah, you do. How old are you?”

“Uh, I turned 21 three weeks ago. But I can’t prove it see.”

“No problem. Mike, rounds of the good stuff please.” Mike winked at him, Judy smiled, but she didn’t know how she was going to get him drunk without her drinking herself. Then she remembered Beastboy was stationed in her head.

The bartender passed him an usual colored drink and walked away. Joel poured the drink in their glasses. They clinked them and took a their swigs. Then she looked at her glass.

“This is good! What’s in it!?” She asked, excitement and curiosity getting the best of her.

“Can’t tell, secret.” He poured more for her, instead of himself. She took the shot glass greedily and took another drink. Licked her licks, then downed the bottle.

“Ironic isn’t it.” Cyborg said, Robin chuckled.

“So uh, do you want to leave?” Joel asked her, she hiccupped.

“Eh!? yea, shur les go.” She slapped the bar and stumbled off the stool. And he carried her all the way out the club. He directed her towards the alleyway, though he didn’t know he was being followed. Robin, right on the ledge overhead, the other Titans across the street. And Beastboy, who was ready to pounce on Joel, but remembered if he did he might crush Judy. So he waited impatiently.

“Wait a sec, I’ll just hop over to his head.” His squeaky unheard voice said. And he did, he hopped to the side of Judy’s head, to the side of Joel’s head. Feeling more content because if he tried anything, he’d be the first to act.

“Here, my cars down here.” They walked down the alley, and turned down into a garage. That’s when Robin silently dropped down behind him and knocked him out. Making Judy scream, and then pass out. Beastboy hopped of Joel’s head, and turned back into himself.

“Dude, I wish you woulda warned me before you did that.” Beastboy grumbled.


/--/-


Joel shot up form his unconscious state when Robin tossed a bucket of water on him. He looked around frantically. Then rested his eyes on Robin, Robin smirked then turned around.

“Do what you will.” He said, and walked out the dark room. Recognizable to Robin, because the only light was fixed upon the captive, as he sat chained in a wooded chair. And he left him in silence, his breaths quickened the more he became frightened. Then he heard a footstep. . .then another, Joel hissed towards the unknown person. Then sharply inhaled his breath when he found out who it was.

Blade emerged from the darkness with a Devil-May-Cry smirk. Cracking his knuckles, and chuckling to himself.

“Let’s talk.”


/--/-


Robin and the rest of them, including a drunk Judy, who was now constantly rubbing her head and throwing up over the ledge. They were at the Jump City Pier. When at night, it was the perfect place for any kind of interrogation. Robin had detested it, smelling blood in the air, old and new. He was gonna have to store this place away in his mind, he knew he could fight criminals here. He looked over at Judy, who was being comforted by Beastboy, who was being watched by Starfire.

Robin raised his eyebrow at that.

‘She only used to look like that when she looked at me.’ He mused.

Yeah, well, you’re kinda off limits now. Did you expect her to keep loving, (liking), you?

‘No, I guess not.’ He glanced over at Cyborg, who was standing in the same position as Robin. Leaning on the rail, arms crossed, his head was hanging though, sleep overcame his features.

‘How long has he been in there?’ He looked at his watch, it had only been 10 minutes, but it felt like an eternity. He sighed and looked towards the sky, then an exhale from Raven drew his attention. She was the furthest out on the dock, looking over the sea as the moon shined without reluctance on the water. The light from the moon and the light reflecting from the water bounded upon Raven.

Robin held his breath, she looked so gorgeous, so beautiful. It was no wonder, he had felt a draw to her from before. A breeze swept past her, making her cape rise only slightly. Yet the effect was all the same, she looked as Robin did the day they defeated Trigon.

He began to walk closer to her, even though he felt like he was stalking. His eyes hadn’t left her form, not one inch. He could see her body tense, but it relaxed soon after.

“Hello Love.” Robin whispered in her ear, he wrapped his arms around her, his silent greeting sent a tingle down her spine. He lowered his head to her shoulder, and nibbled on her ear. She cooed and rubbed his arms.

“What are you doing Robin, right here on the pier. Bit kinky don’t you ya think?” She giggled a bit and Robin chuckled.

“I don’t think so. But honestly, I’d take you anywhere anytime Raven, I love you.” He said, she smiled to herself.

“I love you too, Boy Wonder.” Robin chuckled, he moved his mouth to kiss her, and that’s when Blade came out the little shack. Robin growled at the distraction, but they walked over to Blade anyways.

“Whacha get from him?” Cyborg asked. Blade kept walking towards the parking lot. They followed, Robin looked in the shack, but there were scorch marks and a pile of ash on the floor.

“You weren’t supposed to kill’em!” Robin yelled, Blade just snorted.

“Your gonna have to remember I hate vampires.” He stated. He hopped on his bike and sighed.

“Jump City isn’t the only place they plan to release these clones. A worldwide distribution. They plan to hit all the major cities in each major country. They plan for a war. I don’t know about you, but I’ll be ready. I’ll meet up with you in three days. That should give us both time to prepare. I’ll be seein you.” And he revved his engine and took off down the street and out of sight. Leaving the Titans to stand there and contemplate on what to do next.

“Let’s go home.” Robin finally said, they hopped in the T-Car and he hopped on his bike.


/--/-


“So what do we do now?” Cyborg asked Robin. They were sitting at their table, Judy had went to sleep and they too were feeling drowsy.

“We prepare like he told us too. And we might have to enlist aid from the other Titans, as well as superheroes around the world. And let’s hope he’s thinking the same thing.” Robin nodded to them and headed off to his basement with Raven. Cyborg headed off to, leaving Beastboy and Starfire to awkwardly sit next to each other.

He looked at her, then quickly looked towards his hands when she looked at him. She giggled, then stood up to leave. Beastboy felt bad and didn’t know why. He stood up and quickly followed her.

“Uh Star, what’s wrong?” Beastboy walked in front of her, making her stop.

“Nothing, what makes you think something is wrong?” She asked him. Beastboy actually didn’t know why he thought something was wrong. So he chalked it up to his animal instincts.

“Well, you kinda just . . . Left.” He realized he must have sounded like a dumb ass.

“I see no wrong in that. I, am under the impression that you shouldn’t care.” Starfire huffed. Beastboy couldn’t believe it, but he knew why she was mad. He hadn’t showed her any attention while they were out, mission or no mission. When it was her and Robin, he still showed her a little attention. And he basically abandoned her and stayed in Judy’s hair. And even though she did end up getting drunk and sick, he could see the longing in her eyes. And it grew when she saw Robin hugging on Raven. Old feelings do die hard.

“Star, I’m kinda being torn between girls here. I don’t really know what to do.”

“I may be naive, but I do know what’s going on. When Judy is around, you ignore me, when she’s gone, you don’t ignore me. I guess I am just destined to not have a mate. Goodnight Beastboy.” And with that, she walked through the double doors and was gone. Leaving Beastboy feeling extremely stupid.

“Damn it, I seriously can’t catch a break. I need help, would Cyborg really know about relationships. Robin should. He might not want me to bother him though, at least with that.” Beastboy sighed.

“I need, I need . . . I need Dr. Phil.”
