TITANS ! CHRISTMAS TROUBLE !!

 

 

Chapter 2 : And Christmas is saved !

 

 

In a desolate plains, in the night, a gloomy dark carnival was located there. Suddenly, a car arrived there. Several dolls came out, carrying Starfire and Raven, bound and gagged. Psycho Clown was also there, and escorted them inside the carnival. They went into a theatre. Both girls were forced to sit down on the bench in front of the screen.

 

 

PC : And now, for some little opening show here !

 

 

Psycho Clown pressed a button on a remote control. And the screen displayed the Christmas tree inside the Titans Tower, complete with the packaged presents. Suddenly, most of the packages were torn from the inside, and an even more advanced puppets, armed with lots of weapons, came out from it, and started wreaking havoc in the Tower.

 

 

PC : Ahahahaha !!! The Titans will never see it coming ! Maybe soon they'll die while having a nice dream ! AHAHAHAHA !!

Raven : Grrrmmmphh...

Starfire : Mmmmmpphh !! Mmmmmppphh !

 

 

Back to Titans Tower, an explosion occurred inside, waking Robin, Beast Boy and Cyborg from their sleep. They quickly got out of their rooms and gathered.

 

 

Beast Boy : Dude, did you hear that sound ?

Robin : Sounds like an explosion...

Cyborg : It's coming from the hall !

 

 

The boys rushed to the hall, and found out the advanced puppets destroying the hall.

 

 

Beast Boy : Aaahh !! What the heck are those !?

Cyborg : Crud. It also destroyed the Christmas Tree !

Robin : Whatever they are, they mean trouble... Titans, GO !!

 

 

Robin and Cyborg leapt to the advanced puppets and destroyed most of them, using Robin's gadgets and Cyborg's sonic blasts. Beast Boy also joined the fray by turning into a gorilla and smashed the advanced puppets. After quite some time, finally, the puppets were driven off.

 

 

Beast Boy : Question. Who sent them ?

Cyborg : I'll try scanning some of them, then.

 

 

Cyborg quickly took one of the destroyed puppets and took it to the lab, trying to search for its origin. And...

 

 

Cyborg : Bingo !

Robin : Found something ?

Cyborg : Some weirdo called Psycho Clown made them... his 'factory' seems to be located in the north section of Jump City. The only hint is that it's somewhere in a desolate plains.

Robin : Psycho Clown...

Beast Boy : Hey, I think these puppets look a bit familiar !

Cyborg : Me too. Remember when our souls were trapped inside puppets by some weirdo named Puppet Master ?

Beast Boy : Yea, then Starfire and Raven saved us. If you ask me, these puppets we just trashed looks familiar...

Cyborg : But it seems more advanced...

Robin : True... they looked like that Puppet Master... Now I know !

Beast Boy & Cyborg : What !?

Robin : This Psycho Clown is the one responsible behind the disappearance of Starfire and Raven ! Let's move out !!

 

 

Wasting no time, Robin, Beast Boy and Cyborg rushed to the north section of Jump City, to find the desolate plains, and the dark carnival. All of them remembered the times when Starfire and Raven defeated Puppet Master and saved them. Maybe now it is time to show gratitude, and save the girls from Puppet Master's mastermind, Psycho Clown... And finally they arrived on the carnival. Their greetings weren't that welcome... they were greeted by several angry puppets.

 

 

Cyborg : Geez, they really wanna take it rough, eh ?

Beast Boy : Whatever. Now let's rock !

 

 

The boys then busted through the carnival, defeating every puppets that barred their way. Eventually, they came to a big pool with a bridge above it. Alligators were located inside the pool, and some more puppets were spinning a certain wheel. There's someone bound and gagged and suspended above the pool, slowly being dropped to the pool... and that person was Raven.

 

 

Raven : Mmmmmpphhh...

Beast Boy : Dude ! Isn't that Raven !?

Robin : Help is on the way, Raven ! ...

 

 

Robin was about to go save Raven, but he received a telepathy.

 

 

Raven : (Stop that, Robin !!)

Robin : Wha !?

Cyborg : Hey, what are you waiting for !?

Robin : ... Looks like a telepathic message from Raven...

Raven : (Go help Starfire. She's in a big trouble now !)

Robin : ... Cyborg, Beast Boy... I'll go find and save Starfire... I leave Raven to you guys !

Cyborg : *thumbs up*

Beast Boy : Sure thing, dude !

 

 

Robin then separated with his friends. In the same time, the puppet noticed Cyborg and Beast Boy running through them. They prepared for battle, but only Cyborg took them on. In the same time, Beast Boy leapt to the pool and turned into an electric eel. Then, he electrocuted all the alligators, until they were unconscious. In the same time, one last puppet threw its knife, cutting the rope that hung Raven, dropping her to the pool.

 

 

Raven : Mmmmmpphh !!

Cyborg : Gotcha covered, Raven ! *punches the puppet to the water*

 

 

Cyborg then made a leap and grabbed Raven. Luckily, he leapt far enough, so they didn't fall to the pool. As Cyborg untied Raven, Beast Boy returned to the surface and returned to his normal form.

 

 

Raven : ... Thanks.

Cyborg : No prob. What are friends for if not to help each other, eh ?

Beast Boy : But, Raven... how come you didn't cast anything before you're... uh... gagged ?

Raven : ... Because of this darn tape...

 

 

Raven then took the tape that was stuck behind her neck. And then, she put on her hood again, and gathered several powers of darkness.

 

 

Raven : Much better now... Let's go get Robin and Starfire now.

 

 

The three of them then left the pool area...

 

 

In the same time, in a circus tent, Starfire, still bound and gagged, was kneeling in the center of the tent. In front of her was a ferocious tiger, and Psycho Clown as its tamer.

 

 

PC : The end is near, Starfire !! This tiger will bring your DOOM !! Munch'er up !! AHAHAHA !! *whip*

Tiger : GRRROOOWWLL !!

Starfire : MMMMMMMMMMPPPPPPPHHH !!!

 

 

The tiger leapt, trying to pounce on Starfire. She closed her eyes in horror, thinking that the end is near. However, just when the tiger was about one inch away from her, it stopped... And it fell into a slumber.

 

 

PC : What !?

???? : Hey...

 

 

Psycho Clown looked around, trying to find out who the culprit was, and suddenly, he was kicked from behind. It was... Robin !

 

 

Starfire : Mmmphh !

Robin : Pick someone else on your size... like me !

PC : What !? You... You're Robin !

Robin : Well, what do ya expect ?

PC : I thought you're... DUCK !! AHAHAHA !!

Robin : We'll just see if you can mock me after I beat you to a pulp !!

 

 

Robin then prepared his staff and he fought Psycho Clown. Both were even, but eventually Psycho Clown managed to overwhelm him and threw him to the ground.

 

 

PC : Ahahaha !! Yea right, maybe you ought to change your name to Duck ! Or even better, Goose !

Robin : Ugh... Starfire...

Starfire : Mmmmmpphh...

Robin : You fought hard in order to save me from Puppet Master... And this is how I will repay you...

Starfire : Mmmph !

PC : Now blabber until you die !! *attacks again*

Robin : ... By saving you from the master of Puppet Master !!

 

 

Psycho Clown tried to deliver a strong punch to Robin's face. But, he dodged and delivered a kick to his chin. Soon, it's Robin's turn to overwhelm Psycho Clown, and eventually he brought him down.

 

 

PC : Crap ! Crap ! Crap !!

Robin : Your apprentince might not make it to the prison. But I assure you... you will !

PC : ....

 

 

Robin then turned into Starfire and untied her, removing her gag.

 

 

Robin : You're safe now, Star.

Starfire : Robin...

Robin : And now we're even. You saved me, and now I save you.

Starfire : Thank you !!

 

 

Starfire then happily hugged Robin, very tightly that Robin had trouble to breathe.

 

 

Starfire : Thank you for your timely rescue, Robin ! I have wondered that I might die, but you really saved me !

Robin : *gasp* It's... OK, Star... Now can you *gasp* release me a bit... *gasp* Can't... *cough* breathe...

Starfire : Thank you very very very much. Now to express my gratitude, I'd like to recite... *gasp!*

Robin : What is it ?

Starfire : Robin ! He's getting away !

 

 

Starfire saw Psycho Clown trying to run away from Robin.

 

 

PC : Heheh ! You'll never catch me !

???? : Azarath Methereon ZINTHOS !!

PC : What the !?

 

 

Psycho Clown was suddenly covered with black energies. It appeared that Raven, Cyborg, Beast Boy made it to the circus.

 

 

Raven : You will pay for all your crimes... in prison.

Cyborg : Maybe that could be your new circus !

PC : Damn you !!

Robin : Good job, Titans.

Beast Boy : Yeah !

Starfire : Come, friends. Let us go home !

 

 

After sending Psycho Clown to the prison, the Titans returned to Titans Tower, only to find the tower in mess.

 

 

Starfire : Oh my...! This looks... so messy !

Raven : Don't worry. We can clean it up.

Cyborg : And we still have one day before Christmas Eve.

Beast Boy : *yawn*

Robin : We should get some rest now. Tomorrow, let's clean up the tower and prepare for Christmas !

 

 

Then, the Titans went to their beds. In the next morning, they worked again to clean up the Tower, as well as preparing for Christmas. They had to let go of some of their best toys to be the new packages. And finally, Christmas Eve came. A lot of young people came to the Titans Tower to celebrate Christmas. As Cyborg and Beast Boy brought the presents to the other visitors, Robin and Starfire watched from behind.

 

 

Starfire : This is... very incredible. Everyone are happy... This has got to be... the best Christmas party, ever !

Robin : Yeah... I agree, Star.

Starfire : Say, Robin... Should we say it ?

Robin : That ? But to who ?

Starfire : I will call the others first...

 

 

Starfire then went away for awhile, and soon she returned with Cyborg, Raven and Beast Boy.

 

 

Robin : Okay, Starfire, to whom should we say that ?

Starfire : To the readers of course !

Robin : Reader who ?

Cyborg : The reader of this fic ! And also the fans of Teen Titans throughout the world !

Robin : Oh ! I got it ! Titans, assemble !

 

 

All the Titans stood in line, facing the front.

 

 

Robin : To all who's reading this fic... and to all Teen Titans fans in this world, thank you for reading this fic. And least but not least, we, the Teen Titans would like to say...

All Teen Titans : MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR !!! *only Raven says that in a low voice*
