A slender, delicately structured hand firmly covered his mouth from behind. Someone's breath stirred the hair just above his ear. "Shh... We are not nice people, little boy, and we are very, very bored. It would be in your best interests to stay nice and quiet, so that we don't reconsider..." Something that was horribly like some sort of a tongue, except much thinner, briefly brushed against his cheek. "...Playing."

 Warp became very still as a chill slid down his back. Well, more so than before. He was sure that his captor wasn't human at this point, and he wasn't willing to try it's patience. He couldn't move...couldn't use his powers...he didn't have any kind of upper hand. The only thing he could do was as the thing said.

The hand withdrew, followed by the breathing by his face, and a wicked little chuckle cut through the silence. "Gooood." The thing drew the word out far more than was necessary.

Warp tried to relax as much as he could, despite the chill that was running down his back. Whatever this thing was, he officially didn't like it. And why was it waiting for Shadow? Everything about this screamed trap, and he felt completely helpless to do anything. THIS he wasn't used to. He was always able to undo things.
But...Roxanne was smart, right? She'd be alright. She'd be...she'd be safe without his help.

 ENTER from SANCTUM SANCTORUM A small shadow swirled around on the ground, and soon Shadow Spider emerged from it. Alone. She glanced around a moment, and found herself on what must have been an island. Turning, she found that the shadow she had come from was wrapped around a small memorial and flowers. Behind that, was an enormous pile of charred and twisted metal and brick. Other than that, there was nothing here. What was...why did he bring her here? Where would Warp be... She felt her heart skip a beat as a horrible thought crossed her mind. He wasn't UNDER all of that was he? That thing didn't...he, he couldn't be pinned under... Forcing herself to remain calm, and doing everything in her power not to blast a web of shadows through the wreckage to find him, Roxanne forced herself to focus on the memorial. Alright....the date was much later than when the thing took Warp. Alright. Then it was likely he wasn't pinned under anything. Relaxing ever so slightly, she glanced back around at the island. Alright...she was on an island. Getting over here by shadow was allowable, right? It was the easiest way to get over here. So then, now what? Search the island by foot? Try to dig her way around the rubble?

The creature cocked its head briefly to one side, listening carefully. "About time," it hissed. Well, there was nothing to stop it from going to find Riku, now. "So... this has been fun. We hope you don't judge psycho-alien-symbiote people solely by your experience here today. Goodbye!" She patted him lightly on the top of the head... and then she was just... gone.

After a few moments of walking around on the island, Shaddow suddenly stopped in her tracks as something caught her eye on the ground. A shadow moved, and she wasn't the one causing it. It clicked a second later and she relaxed. She REALLY wasn't used to someone else using shadow manipulation. Reaper soon stood in front of her, looking...a tad uncomfortable. "I'd say it's safe to toss the rules out the window now." he said casually. He had kept himself in the city not far from the island while Shadow was on it. There were three heartbeats when she first go there, then there was only hers and one other. As quickly as the third had vanished, it wasn't hard to guess who it was, given what he knew about the woman's new playmate. The Blood had taken over her completely apparently. As much as he hated to say it, he wasn't willing to be on the island while the thing was around. Dealing with girls was one thing. Another Blood being was another. Though...he still had his green form to work with. Suppose he still had some edge. Shadow looked at him a moment, then relaxed and closed her eyes. She let her mind weave through every crevice there was on the island. Soon she came to an area she couldn't penetrate with the shadow. Given where it was at, there was no way light could reach that area of the ruins. Very urgently, she slipped into another shadow and disappeared. /// *snap* Ah, I need to find where I put Riku at. ///

It took only a matter of seconds for Roxanne to reach the large hollow area where Warp was being kept. She slid through her shadows up to the line where the harsh light met the darkness, and sprung out of the darkness and into the light. She took a total of two steps and stopped in her tracks as her eyes rested on Warp. He was chained tightly, and had something attached to his arm. Every ounce of her wanted to rush over to him, but the logical part of her protested that this could still be a trap. That something could be rigged somehow. Warp turned his head as best he could to look at whoever had come into his line of sight, but he couldn't make out who it was. His eyes still weren't focusing right under this light. She stood there for a long minute or so, then cautiously made her way towards Warp. Satisfied that nothing had happened, and that nothing was going to happen, she carefully moved close to him to check his condition. Once she was close enough, Warp's eyes finally managed to find their focus. Recognition washed over his face, and a faint smile curved around his mouth. "You...alright?" Warp mumbled. "Don't you worry about me." Shadow said simply, her eyes scanning his chains and the drip in his arm. "You're the one who needs to be asked that. Are you hurt? How long have you been awake?"
"Not long." he replied. "Someone...was here just a minute or two ago. Was waiting for you. They left. Morphine drip in my arm.""I see that." she replied. His chains were too well done. She couldn't find a way to undo them. "I'm going to cut the power, and it's going to get rather dark, alright?""Right." he replied. Shadow glanced over at the chains a moment, then placed her arms around Warp so that she'd have a hold of him when she used her shadow powers. Easiest thing to do would be to get her shadows around them and she'd be able to cut the chains and teleport them in one swoop. "Glad you're alright." he said quietly. Roxanne's features fell into something close to guilt. "Me too..." she replied back.

Suddenly the lights were cut and the room became extremely dark. Roxanne wrapped her shadows around the both of them, and solidified what was touching the chains and drug into something of a vice grip. The chains snapped audibly and slipped away from Warp. Roxanne held onto Warp and allowed the darkness to engulf the both of them. She wasn't sticking around long enough to let anything else happen. Reaper should be gone by now anyway.

((Enter from DC universe to Jump City/Titan's Tower)) Gar found himself in Jump City suddenly after he had just seen the titan's. Almost in a state of hangover laying on a dock.
"What happened to me?"
He said to himself, he was on the south end of Jump City near some abandoned warehouses. He got up slowly trying to shake off the feeling he had. He began walking when he pulled his communicator out of his pocket to check it. It had been cracked but in a usable condition. He put it back preparing to head to the tower. He turned into a peregrine falcon as he jumped into the air and he soared towards Titan's tower. Regardless of whether he saw it or not he kept heading towards the Tower worried that something might have happened.
Once he reached the tower he turned back into a human landing softly on his feet. He took a step back in horror as the place he and his fellow titan's lived was now nothing but rubble.
"What happened to the Titan's?!"
He pulled out his communicator again now trying to call anyone but his signal would not go through. He thought that they must be too far away so he placed it back onto his belt. He decided to scavenge to see if he could get to the Titan's tower main frame and get information to download or possibly see if anyone was in the lower levels of the Tower if they had not collapsed. He transformed into a bloodhound quickly getting to work trying to find anything he could use to figure this situation out.

 Nothing. At least that was what 'Kon-el' had been experiencing for the past several months. Superboy lay in the middle of the giant scraps of twisted metal and concrete, where San Fransisco's Titans Tower had once stood. There were levels of 'Tower' piled ontop of him... even if the wreckage was scoured, it would take someone with extraordinary senses to find him.
The rate of his heart beat was next to nothing as well. With depleted body heat, lack of sunlight for energy absorption and slow blood flow, Conner's condition was to a point where he would need outside help if he ever were to break out of his coma.(...in this case, I don't think Gar's activities will draw any attention... and do we have anyone on the west coast from Marvel? ei Iron Man, X-men...)

Gar caught the scent of someone he knew. Possibly someone's room but how was it possible. He transformed into an African elephant and lunged forward tossing aside debris of the tower with his tusks. He groaned with every toss of metal and concrete as they scraped against his tusks and trunk.
Finally after long digging he found Conner who had been buried under the debris. He transformed into a human again standing next to Conner checking to see if he was alright.
"Kon, Super Boy can you hear me?"
His pleas got no reaction from his unconscious friend. He found that his heart barely beat if at all, but he was warm enough, his blood flow still existed in some small form as to indicate that he was still alive. Gar looked around quickly to find a place where he could help. Before he caught his scent he had found where the stairs to the base levels were and he ran over there finding a hole big enough to pull the two of them through. He first crawled in there and down around a corner to see if the stairs continued.
"It's decided."
He went back up and retrieved Kon and went back down the small gap of rubble and down stairs to a bunker like room where he quickly hooked con up to an iv and a sun lamp. Gar knew Kon very well, and knew that under that rubble he needed a massive amount of the suns energy, plus liquids and nutrients to come back from his coma like state.
"Everything is going to be alright Kon."
After he set Kon up he took a look around finding food, medical supplies, bedding and clothes in the underground parts of the tower that still remained for the most part intact. He hooked up a backup power supply to the room to keep the power going now that it was started as well. He then went back to the room where Kon was and rebooted the computers opened up the files that remained in the database through the computer in that room.

(Thanks Sapphire. Okay, so Maho and I are doing a time skip, since we're not tied to anything else in particular. This is after at least a few days...) A small cough emanated from his throat. With a slow turn of the head, Kon's eyelids parted just enough to where his blue eyes peered into the room. At first, he mistook the bright warm light above him as the actual sun... but it wasn't bright enough. Opening his eyes just a bit more, Conner recognized the object as a sun lamp. The next thing he could tell was that he was alone in the Tower's bunker.
Superboy could feel the IVs on his arm, and he was very tempted to strip them off all together... he never liked those kinds of things... at the same time, it didn't feel like he had enough strength to do just that. He hated feeling so vulnerable. Kon's head turned so that the bottom of a stairwell was in his sights... a small and cool draft entered in from that opening, which partly confused Conner. He could hear the coast's waves, and footsteps that were growing louder...

Gar came inside once more to check on Kon's condition. He hoped that he would be okay, he neared the door of the room and peered around the corner before he entered. He walked up to the bed and found that Kon was awake.
"Kon, you're doing much better I see. Well since you were buried in the rubble of this tower for a month or so."
He said his voice was confident and cheerful almost. He changed the IV for Kon while he talked.
"Glad you're coming to, I haven't been able to contact any of the Titan's in over 24 hours, and the Towers data seems to have a bug since it keeps referring to a merge that no data could be found. Several months of data are missing between what happened and the present it wasn't very specific."
