The Titans Tower stood in an unusal silence in the San Fracisco Bay. It had been two days since a handful of young heroes had vanished from the sight of the world. Until...
[glow=red,2,300]>BOOM!<[/glow]
The Super-Cycle flew down an landed on the front step of the Tower as it had many times before. Yet this time there was a new feel of tension in the air. >See Time Tour for details...<
Robin was the first to get out of the cycle, in his arms holding the body of the young meta-human Champion. Alot of things had happened to the Titans recently, and to Robin himself. He had taken sometime to think over recent events and turned back to the others.
"I'm leaving the Titans," he said to them, which was followed by shocked stares and a long silence.
"Not permanently, just for a little while. In light of what has happened, I think it would be best if I took some time to myself. I'm sure you all understand."
"And don't worry, Lantern," he said to TL. "I'll still contact the Green Lanterns for a mentor for you."
"So in my absences, I'm going to leave Falcon and Wonder Girl in charge of the team." He looked down at the body of Champion and back at the faces of his shocked teammates.
"I'll still be there, if you guys need me, but until then..." he let the sentence hang in the air and then turn around, entering the Tower. Once he had contacted Oracle about Champion's death, he would head back to Gotham.

Falcon was the next to get out of the super-cycle. If she knew Robin, he was probably blaming hisself for the deatho f Champion. Champ was a good kid, a toal twit at times, but good. He didn't deserve to die like this....but it wasn't Tim's fault.
She watched him leave, contemplating going after him to comfort him or leave him some time to work this out himself, give him some space. She was just as confused as he was after their last time trip...truth was, she needed time to herself as well.
No, right now it would be best to get back to Tampa and deal with getting tranfered back to Gotham and spend some time by herself trying to sort all of this out. She was still in a bit of a shock after the events that they saw...Truth was though, she didn't know how she was going to get back from Calfornia to Florida.

"All right Tim," Oracle said to Robin as she looked at him with concern over a computer-com-link. "The body had been teleported to bottom of the lake, and as far as the local athorities know, Adam >Forgot Last Name< died because of gang violence."
"Thank Barb," Tim replied half-heartidly.
"Robin... Tim... Are you okay? I mean from what you told me, there was nothing that you could have done to save Champion. You shouldn't blame yourself..."
Tim didn't reply, but nodded to her.
"That isn't the only thing is it?" she said uneasily. After years of being around Batman and Nightwing, she knew when one of the Bat-boys was hiding something.
"Nothing." he said a little to quickly.
"Tim..." Babs began.
"Look, I'll talk to you later okay?" Before Barbara could respond, Tim severed the link and left the computer room, and headed down towards the teleporter room. He get back home, and try to spend as much time as Timothy Drake as he had left.

Tl got out of the super cycle but instead of using his ring to float down he hoped out looking at the ring. "Uhm...robin falcon? is it a good or a bad thing when a spark...thing...hits the ring from the portal?" He asked then a pain shot through his head and he staggered nearly falling to the ground.
he saw something in his mind. The image of a man dressed in black it looked like he was made of stone sitting on a thrown and pits belching fire all around him.
"Have you got him yet?" the figure said just before tl lost the image

'if you feel like you need to talk my grandfather is pretty good at that. In case you forgot the address of the dojo (written here) and no im not coming on to you. but i would have quite if you hadnt talked to me so its only fair.' -Shinobi
He then turned to tl "are you alright?" he asked with concern he just watched one teammate die sure he didnt get along with champion but still...

Robin entered the Teleporter room and set up the program to teleport him to the Batcave. Once he had done so the code would be automatically altered, keeping anyone from accessing the same code and teleporting to the Batcave.
Stepping onto the teleporter ring, he was just about in engage the teleporter when he relized that something was in his belt. He reached down a pulled out a small piece of paper written in Shinobi's handwritting.
After reading it, he gave a small laugh. It was good to know that his friends would back him up. Too bad that sort of thing might not last in the coming months...
Rachel would most likely scold him for being so pesimistic, but he couldn't help it. Something bad was going to happen, and it was going to cost him any sort of happiness he could have.
"Computer," he said placing the note back in his belt. "Engage." The teleporter hummed to life, and he vanished in a pool of light as his molecules were taken apart and sent to the teleporter in the secret base of the Batman known as Bat-Cave.
>>Continues for Robin in "Gotham City" under "Date with Fate"<<

Suddenly there was a flash of light inside the main entrance and the Titans saw someone they would expect, 'cause well he died. IMPULSE.
"HEY YOU GUYS!!!!!"

Tl stood up and shook his head looking at his ring. "Wow...hey...does anyone know some huge guy looks like he's made of stone...wears black...surrounded by pits spewing fire..." He asked getting more impressions from his ring. "hes name i think...starts with a 'd'...dark...something...what im seeing is either real or...that last warp messed with my head..."

"Oyyyy." She brought a hand up to her head. "To tell you the truth, Impulse. I feel like I just got OUT of an episode of Days of our lives." She then blinked with realization. "Waitaminute...Aren't you supposed to be dead?" She knew it. Nobody ever stays dead in comics. Well, except for a few exceptions--but she didn't want to think about that right now.
