"He was a mess when we brought him in. His lung, his stomach, his liver; All shot to hell."

"Shouldn't he be dead?"

"Thats the problem, I just don't get it. It just don't make any sense."

"He wasn't kidding, he is a miracle."

"Plus his arm..........Look at it....General it hasn't done this before. It reminds me when Agent Raven........."

"..........how long has he been like this?"

"About six hours, the anesthetics are about to wear off."

"Leave the room."

"Yes sir."



"Dimitri? Dimitri wake up."

"......ugh.......general?...my...arm"

"Dimitri, theres something I got to tell you."

"Katrina.......General.........she's.......alive."

"I know Dimitri, I know."
 
6 months have passed....



"Hello and welcome to the morning edition of Jump City News Channel 8: The metro area's most trusted news station. Now, for the weather report:"

Cyborg was sitting down watching T.V. as the rest of the team started to get up. Beast Boy stumbled toward the couch and slumped down, trying to gain any last minute of sleep he can get.

"A temprature of 45 degrees will be the high this morning as it gradually gets up to 67 degrees late in the afternoon. Expect partly cloudy skies with a 25% chance of percipitation."

Beast Boy made a desparate grab for the remote to flip it to some music but Cyborg raised it high so he couldn't grab it. Beast boy was in no mood for any conflicts so he quickly admits defeat.

Starfire floated into the room as she hummed happily.

"Good morning to you all." said Starfire.

"Hey," said Cyborg, still fixated with the news.

Beast Boy just mumbled incoherently.

Robin walked in. stretching and yawning.

"Jeez.....Is it morning already?"

"Has been for a while." said Cyborg as he pointed to the clock.

The clock read 10:53 A.M

Robin sighed and sat down next to Beast Boy and elbowed him in his side.

"Wake up. it's about noon."

Beast Boy turned into a snake and slithered under the couch.

Robin just shrugged and watched the news along with Cyborg.

"Tonight will be cloudy with a 60 percent chance of rai..........Wait..............I'm getting some word..........We have breaking news coming in. Armed robbers have seized the Wayne Enterprises building downtown. There are several hostages and city police have asked the citizens for their cooperation by staying away from the building as to not incite any more violence. We'll keep you advised if any development occurs."

Cyborg got up and flipped the couch over to find Beast Boy, still a snake, curled up into a ball.

"Get up B.B. We got work to do."

Beast Boy formed into his usual self and relunctatly got up.

"RAVEN, WE GOT WORK." Yelled Robin as he banged on her door.

Raven walked out of her room, looking slightly annoyed.

"Ugh....why now?"

"Come on, they said there were hostages."

Raven pulled her cloak over her head as she ran out the door.

"Vinny, Get those people in the corner tied up."

"Boss, This is weird." said one of the masked men.

"The police aren't doing nothing."

"What?"

"Look, no S.W.A.T van, no tactical gear, no nothing."

"They're probably waiting for some sort of backup," said the boss. "Hurry, find that safe and blow it up."

"BOSS!!!"

"What is it Vinny?" said the boss.

"THERE'S A RHINO COMING FOR THE DOOR!!!!!"

"WHAT?!?!?!"

A green Rhino busted down the door. The rest of the Titans ran through the door.

Robin threw his Birdowrangs at the bosses hands, making him drop his gun and grabbing his hands in pain.

"SURRENDER NOW!"

At that moment, two little objects dropped through the glass roof over the lobby and hit the ground

Robin looked at them and noticed what was written on them. "FLASH"

A loud burst rang throughout the entire lobby, blinding everyone in the room with intense light.

Suddenly, A helicopter was flying above the lobby ceiling, the letters, "W.S.S." was written on the side. People were rappeling out of the chopper, In full tactical gear wearing masks and helmets.

"This is Special Defense team Gamma, D team has been deployed in the lobby. Are the Snipers in place?"

"Affirmative." said The Voice. "D team, Hostages are in the area, use non-lethals only."

"Copy. This is squad leader Crow: Insertion complete. Proceeding to apprehend the suspects."

"This is Agent Grim. Agent Raven has been spotted."

"What!? She's here!?"

"Yeah, with the rest of the "Teen Titans." She's changed a lot just like you said."

"Keep your eye on the them. Make sure none of them get hurt."

"Affirmative."

When the Titan's finally got back their sight. They saw armed guards all pointing their rifles at the boss of the robbery. The boss just stood there with his hands up, Lasers pointing at his forehead.

"uhh.....You guys win. I surrender." said the boss, wanting to seriously get this whole ordeal over with.

Vinny laid on the floor, still dazed from the flashbang grenade.

Raven recognized the insignia on their patches.

"What are they doing here?"

Cyborg looked at Raven. "YOU KNOW THESE GUYS?!?!?"

"Our entrance was good, theres was better." said Beast Boy, feeling upstaged

Starfire was floating there. "Why are these people pointing large pipes at the enemy?"

Robin just sat there puzzled as to why these men showed up to a simple robbery.

As they arrested the boss and carryed out Vinny, about 4 guards circled around Raven.

"Wow, she looks evil."

"Agent Raven? Remember me?"

"He told me she was different but I never imagined this."

Robin pushed his way into the middle of the circle. "Raven, Who are these people, How do they know you?"

"Because she's family."

Raven recognized that voice immediatly.

"Dimitri?"

Robin looked more puzzled as ever as a guard walked over to him.

He started to take off his helmet and mask to reveal his face.

Raven couldn't believe it. The man who died in her arms six months ago was now in front of her. It was too good to be true.

She ran toward him, pushing the rest out of the way.

She ran and grabbed him. A tear rolling down her face.

"Dimitri......you're alive."

Dimitri grabbed Raven and hugged her.

"I missed you."

The rest of the Titans just watched, having no idea what was going on.

As Robin looked at the face of Dimitri, the memories came rushing back to him.

He remembers that day. he saw Dimitri holding Raven by the neck up against a wall and then running out the window.

Yet right before him he's seeing Raven crying in his arms like as if they were family.

"Who are you?" said Robin.

Dimitri walked up to Robin with Raven. slightly eclipsing him in height.

"I'm Dimitri Krad. I lead this team and saved you the trouble of apprehending these criminals. You should be thanking me."

Despite the name sounding foriegn, Robin noticed he spoke english fluently with an American accent.

Robin still didn't trust him.

Dimitri looked back at Raven.

"I need to ask you a favor."

Raven regained her composure, wiping a tear from her eye.

"Yes, what is it?"

"Can I stay with you for a while?"

"WHAT?!?!" Yelled Robin.

"We need to catch up on a few things."

Raven nodded in agreement.

"......Okay." said Robin, in a somewhat angry tone.

Dimitri walked up to Robin with an out stretched hand

"The W.S.S. sends its regards."

Robin shook hands with Dimitri, gripping his hand really tight.
