"Well, it could show us what built this robot." he said as he slid down into the large cave. It was amazing, besides the wreckage, it was pretty nice. There was some light down there from constrction workers leaving lamps and such, so he didn't go insane. "This place is pretty cool, come on in!" he shouted up to the Titans.

Alexia jumped and slid. Her snow wings appeared to help her keep balance as she went down.

Serenity hesitated while looking down at the hole.

"Maybe one of us should stay out here to watch for trouble? We're still waiting for the other two anyway." Serenity shouted down at the hole. Honestly, Serenity didn't want to go down the hole, something about it made her back itch.

John arrived back at the scene where it seemed the Titans had destroyed the robot while he was gone. "Brava!" he shouted, clapping. "That bastard got away but it seems like you guys dealt with the robot. Good job newbies," he said as he walked over to the hole. He looked down and saw that Alexia and Sam were already down there. He slid down into the cavernous space and took in his surroundings. It seemed as if this had been under the city for thousands of years.

Armelia just watched as everything was going down. She raised an eyebrow. They were actually really good. So she decided to land on the ground seeing the hole as she turned towards John. "Well. They did... good for their first try." A sigh escaped her mouth as she looked back down at the hole crossing her arms, thinking.

[a00000000000]

"I guess so, maybe the gunman will return, so yeah, you can keep watch." he shouted up to Serenity, whom seemed to be a bit hesitant to go down into the hole. He shrugged and walked about the place. "It looks like it was made by some sort of ancient civilization..." he muttered.

[booksmusicanime]

"It's cool." Alexia said looking around

As Titan came to the spot in which that battle had taken place, he was surprised to find that rather than a titanic battle being fought, there only remained to halves of a beaten machine of some sort. "Huh. Well, I guess my assistance wasn't needed after a-" "You there!", Titan turned his head as he was cut off mid sentence to find himself face to face with a police officer. Titan tensed for a moment, fully prepared to fight, however the police man only pointed to the remains of the machine and a single hero standing in front of a hole, "Did you do this?". Titan cocked his head to the side a bit in confusion, "You're a Teen Titan right? Did you and your team do this?" the officer asked, everything suddenly clicked in Titan's mind, and with the newfound information, a new escape plan was hatched, "Well, not exactly. I guess you could say i'm new to town and was hoping to join the team. I figured i'd check them out in the field first though.". The officer seemed content with the answer he'd received and decided not to press the subject further. As he and the officers converged on the remains of the machine to ensure everything was clear, Titan slowly backed away, then turned and ran as fast as his legs could carry him, which considering his size, was actually surprisingly fast. "Well, at least now I know these guys can fight. I may need to figure out how to take them down if we ever clash..." Titan muttered as he made his way back to the parking lot.

[BlueAjah]

Serenity glanced at a man talking to a police men. She was too far to get a good look at him as he left the area. For some reason he couldn't get off Serenity's mind.

"Guys, I'll be right back.." Serenity muttered as she walked up to the policemen who had talked to the man. "Um, sir. Hi" she smiled at him "I'm one of the Teen Titans, I'm sorry for bothering you. But that man you were talking to you earlier, do you know who he was or what he wanted?" The policemen was a bit shocked that she was talking to him but he quickly answered her questions. Saying he was someone hoping to join to the Titans. Serenity nodded and thought. Why didn't the guy come up and talk to them himself? She wondered if he was lying. She dismissed further thinking and thanked the officer. Quickly she returned the other Titans, still staring at the hole.

[a00000000000]

"Hm?" he muttered as she ran off. When she came back he looked up to her. "What was that all about?" he asked.

[booksmusicanime]

Alexia looked up at Serenity.

[BlueAjah]

"Some guy was talking to a security guard about joining teen titans. Unfortunately he ran off."Serenity answered the teen titan's questions

[a00000000000]

"Maybe he'll come around later." he said, shrugging, then looking back towards the cave. He stepped forward and stepped on a skull. He winced as it broke apart under his shoes. "Watch out for bones..." he said nervously, not wanting to step on anymore as he walked ahead.

[booksmusicanime]

Alexia nodded and she used her wings to lightly fly above the ground so she didn't step on the bones

[Lucius Cypher]

Dominick walked over to the scene of the battle, or what was left of it. From the distance he could see the titan's jumping into the hole where the robot came out of. It looked smashed to bits, but he was fairly certain that he could still salvage it. He just needed to wait for the titan's to leave. Assuming they don't screw up big time, like try to touch something in those ruins that blows apart half the city, he's certain he could come back tomorrow and check the place out for himself. His cellphone alarm went off reminding him that he has to meet his game group in an hour. "Aye, I'd love to stay around and pick at the bones, but I got a meeting. We'll meet again, Titans." Dominick said to no one but himself.

After getting into his car and driving back to his neighborhood, he parked his car at the local gas station; one of his gang friends owned the place and let him hang out there. It's also where he usually goes to transform into Dark Matter, as it's the center-most building related to his work. Once he became Dark Matter, he left the building stealthy to meet up with one of the local gangs. They were just a couple of gang-bangers looking to start a name for themselves. Mostly kids and young adults, between the age of fifteen-to-twenty. They had a lot of themes, some based on race, some based on mutual hate. This one was some sort of feminist girl gang who were looking to get some heat to spread the message that not all girls in gangs are just whores or trophies. Personally, he doesn't care what their agenda is. He had a selection of weapons and he was willing to sell. He met them in a building just a few blocks away from the gas station. Mostly abandoned, but still in a public area; they know that if they tried to double-cross him or fire their weapons in this neighborhood, Dark Matter's own goons would be on them, and they were much more heavily armed and higher numbers. The meeting was to be taken place on the seventh floor of a ten-story building; the own gang was there, twenty-four of them. Soon Dark Matter popped him from the floor, garnering shocked looks from most of the gang, though the leader and her lieutenants already met him. "Welcome ladies. To business than?"

Dark Matter presented the three weapons he had to sell to the gang. First was an H&K UMP45, a Submachine Gun chambered for .45 ACP. A good general warfare weapon for drive-bys, shoot outs, and home defense. He had thirty to sell for 4k, and wound add 2000 rounds of ammo along with it. Next was the Jericho 941 pistol, also chambered for .45 ACP. A solid pistol when you need can't bring your UMP. He had another thirty which he'd sell for 3k, but they'd have to buy their own ammo (Presumably from the first deal). Last was the FR F1; fairly antiquated and not really something you normally see on the market, but for them he's sell them ten for 2k, with 500 rounds of 7.5x54 mm. IN total, 9k for everything. That was a steal.

"And... While it's no business of mines for what you need it for, I know that sometimes you need to bring in the heat. Guns and bullets are good for dealing with mooks, but sometimes you need to take out armor." One last weapon that Dark Matter put on the table was the M72 LAW Rocket Launcher. "I have five of these babies, and about fifty rockets. For another 4k they're yours. What do you say?"

Shortly after getting into his vehicle and removing his helmet and jacket once more, Jacque managed to make it back home much quicker with the traffic having died down as road blocks were removed. The young villain pulled into the drive way of his two story town house, and exited the vehicle with his belongings, stopping to wave hello to one of his neighbors before climbing his stairs, slipping inside and sighing contently as the cooling relief of his air conditioner washed over him. Jacque's home was fairly modest; upon entry one would have the option of either continuing straight, which would lead them to the living room, kitchen, dining room, or the deck. The upper portion of his home sported three bedrooms and two bathrooms, one of which was in the master bedroom. Jacque walked upstairs and entered his room, "Hey Coal, you have a good day buddy?" he asked before tapping a large terrarium next to his bed. The resident of this terrarium hissed loudly, however Jacque ignored it as he walked to the opposite side of the room and opened his closet before pulling out some clothes, a small brown box, tape, and a few pieces of styrofoam.

Less than two minutes later, Jacque was sitting on his bed, dressed now in a pair of faded grey jeans and a purple shirt, the vials for Bane were packaged and ready to be delivered tomorrow, "Alright, time to sit back, relax, a-" *Beep~ Beep~ Beep~* "-aaaand see who's bugging me now. God damn it.". Jacque pulled his phone from his pocket and found yet another text from 'Uncle B.', inquiring as to whether or not his prescription had been picked up. Jacque affirmed his mission success, happy to have served his boss well, however this happiness quickly gave way to mild annoyance as yet another request popped up on his phone, reading; -Good. You've done well picking up my medicine niño, however I still need one more thing from you.-, Jacque re-read this and sighed, he'd of course do whatever it was without question, but that didn't mean his wasn't at least a little annoyed with being asked for things back to back. -Of course Uncle. Anything you need- Jacque replied. The reply he got was actually a rather simple one: he would deliver the vials he'd stolen to a specific location, then pick it back up the next day. -I will send you the address shortly. When you arrive, you are to ask for if they have a specific item and show them this picture-, Jacque had just started to ask what picture Bane was referring to when a picture of a necklace with a flower shaped pendant that appeared to be made of emerald popped up on the screen. "O....k...this is kind of weird." Jacque said to himself before telling Bane he'd get it done and locking his phone. The villain sighed, and lied back on his bed, planning to get it done after a quick nap.

Jack sat cloaked on a roof top a good distance from the display of titans. His rifle gave him the edge when it came to spotting targets from a distance. The rifle was cloaked as well so it wouldn't give away his position. He watched everything unfold and soon saw the teen titans heading into a hole in the ground. He could tell from his surroundings that they had just finished a battle. That gave him another advantage for an attack. He knew the titans may be tired from the previous fight and he still had the element of surprise. He looked for stragglers of the group. "I could probably snag one of them. I'll hit them with a concussion round. Hitting the right spot will knock them out cold for awhile. Then I'll call for a pick up and that's an easy 45 million. The only question now is which one to get rid of first." He mumbled to himself as he began to formulate a plan.

Elsewhere in Jump City

An explosion of lightning and rubble rocked the streets and shook the windows of every building. At the epicenter of all this destruction were two figures, one of them lying in a crater and one floating above with his arms crossed, "Had enough yet Cinderblock?" The massive rock like man simply groaned and attempted to stand only to be blasted by another huge bolt of lightning that once again shook Jump City, "I know you aren't smart enough to know what to do with Plutonium...So who are you taking orders from?" Cinderblock was quick in his movement as he slung a piece of rubble at Golden Thunder who simply batted it away with the back of his hand, "I really don't want to do this Cinderblock..." Golden Thunder raised his hand and a Zeus type lightning bolt appeared in his hand, "TELL ME NOW!!!" Cinderblock started laughing slightly and was shocked when a hole as large as a manhole appeared in his chest, "You fucking idiot..." Golden Thunder lifted him by his neck with ease, "You just had to be brave didn't you? One last chance...Where...is...Your boss?!?"

[BlueAjah]

Something felt off to Serenity, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

"Is everything alright down there?" She called out to the Titans in the hole "Have you found anything?" Serenity was a bit curious as what was down there, but she still didn't think it was a good idea to venitre into the hole.Traps could be anywhere and who knew where the robot had come from. The unknown possibilities were too high for her to go down.

[Psych13]

Jezebel was silent as everyone conversed. She managed to fade away and no one noticed her. She was scanning her surroundings because she had the strangest feeling of being watched. It was kinda unsettling. And then when she came back down to earth her team was jumping into the hole the robot came out of. She sighed before jumping down after them. She managed to hear what they said about the bones and watching their step.

She made it to her tip-toes before she began following after everyone into the very sketchy looking cave. Apparently her mother making her take the human 'ballet classes' was a good thing. She's never tell her mother that of course but the thanks was still there none the less.
