Before they could finish packing up the JSA headquarters, Courtney and Rachel were summoned back to Titan Tower for an urgent mission and since Courtney needed some time away from her father digest what she'd learned, Rachel took her back with ease and they appeared in the debriefing room, where Dick, Kory, Roy, Garfield, Victor, Dawn and Ryan were waiting.

"Welcome back. How was Civic City?" Dick asked as they took their seats.

"I don't want to talk about it right now. What's the mission?" Courtney asked, getting them back on topic.

"Our old friend Gizmo is back in town." Dick said.

"Seriously? You'd think he'd have learned his lesson about coming here considering every time he does, we clean his clock." Garfield said.

"Gizmo might be a genius, but he's a stupid criminal and stupid criminals never learn when to step down and stop swinging. At least in this city." Dick said.

"Where's our intel coming from?" Victor asked.

"An old friend of mine has been tracking him all the way from Freeland. Thunder." Dawn said.

"Isn't Thunder to Black Lightning what Dick is to Batman? The original sidekick who went solo." Roy asked.

"Except Anissa is still a member of Black Lightning's team while I'm an on-call ally to Batman. Anissa's also a former Titan who can't let go of an old grudge against me, despite the fact that it's been five years and both Dawn and Mari have put it behind us." Dick said.

"What did happen with the original Titans? From what I heard, you guys were pretty tight." Roy asked.

"A mission went bad and we lost a teammate." Dick admitted.

"You might as well tell us the full story, since keeping it from us will only end badly in the end." Courtney said, still reeling from what she'd learned about her father and his team.

"It started with him." Dawn said, pointing to the Hawk suit, which was on a display as a memorial.

"Your partner Hawk?" Garfield asked.

"The two of us, Dick, Mari and Anissa, we were the original Titans. It originally started out as Dick and Anissa, the two sidekicks wanting to break out on their own. Robin and Thunder. Then they recruited Mari, Hank and I." Dawn said.

"I actually tried to recruit Kara back in the day too." Dick said.

"Wait, you tried to recruit the leader of the Justice League to join the Titans?" Courtney asked.

"It was back when we were all teenagers when she first landed on Earth. Batman and Superman thought it would be a good idea to introduce us to each other and we became friends. But Kara wasn't ready to put on a cape yet. So I didn't push it. And instead she waited until she could become her own hero away from being Superman's cousin and now she's the leader and founding member of the Justice League." Dick said.

"Anyways, back then, one of our biggest enemies was a psychopath named Brother Blood. We never found out his real identity, but he was one of the biggest threats this city had ever faced. He had a cult of followers that was trying to take over the city and he nearly succeeded. It took everything we had to stop him and even so, it wasn't without paying a price." Dawn said.

"We sent Hawk in to infiltrate Blood's cult. He got us even further than we expected to get. But things went south. Quickly. We managed to cripple Blood's organization, but in the process, Hawk was killed, taking the attack that was meant for me. Blood got away and the Titans were never the same after that." Dick said.

"Dick blamed himself and we eventually fell apart." Dawn said.

"Kind of sounds like what happened to the JSA. They crossed one line and it destroyed them." Courtney said before she could stop herself.

"What happened there?" Garfield asked.

"I'll tell you after we get the mission over with. Speaking of which, let's get back on topic." Courtney said.

"Right. Sorry about that. But anyways, according to Thunder, Gizmo is looking to break into Dayton Labs." Dick said.

"Dayton Labs. That place is pretty cutting edge in terms of biological research and technology. Including biochemical weapons. Who knows what Gizmo is after." Ryan said.

"Well, whatever it is, we're not gonna let him get his hands on it. Titans, suit up and move out. Thunder has agreed to meet us there. And Dawn, you'll be working with her, since you're the only one who I know will get along with her." Dick said and Dawn said.

"You heard the man. Titans, go." Kory said as Rachel used her magic to change into her Raven outfit, Courtney summoned her staff and with a flash of bright light, she was dressed as Stargirl, Kory herself ignited in ball of green fire that replaced her clothes with her Starfire outfit, Garfield transformed into his signature tiger form before changing back to human, now wearing his Beast Boy outfit, Victor just shut down his image inducer to reveal the form of Cyborg while Dawn spoke the word Dove and suddenly she was dressed in her Dove costume while Roy and Dick used the watches their mentors had given them to suit up as Arsenal and Nightwing respectively.

"Titans, let's move out." Nightwing said as they headed for the garage. Well those of them who needed a bike to move did, since Starfire, Raven, Stargirl, Dove and Cyborg could all fly while Beast Boy could do so by turning into a hawk.
