At the football field...
"Whoa.. You clones can't like...go to the auditorium." Evil Stoner Teddy said. Wally and the others were geared up to hit the auditorium via the tunnels. The plan was a simple shake and bake, hit the baddies with overwhelming force and run off with the prize. In this case, the prize was Chris. "The whole school is totally there...killing my buzz. They'll kill you too. Don't like clones."
Evil Billy hopped up and down, "I want to kill them! With a spell! WITH A SPELL!" With that, Hero Teddy marched up and bonked Evil Billy on the head. Evil Billy slumped to the ground, unconscious. Everyone stared at Hero Teddy who looked embarrassed.
"He was annoying me."
Wally shook his head. Stoner Teddy was right. If they hit the auditorium in force, they would get killed. Cassie was a bruiser but Teddy wasn't nearly as strong as her. They needed a Superboy or something. He'd have to rethink the plan.
"Ok, Titans," Wally took a knee. Billy and Teddy grimaced at the name. When Chris led they could be the Young Avengers but since he was in charge they would be the Teen Titans. "New plan. Uncle Barry told me the best place to Chris back home is the weakest boundry between our universes...the place the first breach occurred. Everyone needs to head to Dr. Richards's lab here and secure it. I'll ninja Chris out and the baddies will be none the wiser."
"I want to help get Chris! I'm so worried about him!" Cassie protested.
"Cassie, you have no stealth abilities. If I need a wrecking ball, you'd be first in but I can snatch Chris and be out faster than he can blink." Unless he's on stage and everyone is staring at him or something, Wally thought. Nah...he was just boring trouble. "Secure the lab. And, um, tie up Stoner Teddy here."
"Dude...harsh."

Inside the auditorium...
Wally facepalmed so hard. He was peeking from behind the curtains onstage, looking at Hero Powell standing there as Evil Powell and Evil Cassie screamed at each other. How was he going to get Chris out with everyone riveted to the drama onstage?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chris looked around nervously. How the hell was he going to get out here without people noticing? His eyes roamed around and settled on Wally's face peeking at him. A Wally without a goatee. His Wally! A rescue! Wally was mouthing something at him....a distraction? They needed a distraction. Well, if I had that I wouldn't be here, Chris thought.
Short of the evil Kryptonians returning to wreak havoc, Chris thought nothing would distract the crowd as they stared at Evil Powell and Evil Cassie arguing. The Kryptonians....everyone said they disappeared. Not killed, just gone. If he was half of an evil couple looking to take over, it would be smarter to keep the Kryptonians prisoner in case you needed them for something. That meant green K and good hiding place. A hiding place that evil Powell and Cassie knew about...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wally stood outside of Logan's hidden cabin. Chris had mouthed 'cabin' at him over and over again. Hopefully, something here would help him. The speedster stepped inside. The light from the door revealed two figures chained to the floor with green rocks in front of them. It was a goateed Clark and goateed Karen! Evil Clark struggled to look up.
"West...free us...must get revenge...Sandsmark and Powell."
Wally grinned and reached for the kryptonite.

Inside the auditorium...
Evil Chris glowered at his ex. He was about to call for a vote. This pointless bickering had gone on long enough and she must admit he now had the upper hand. Nothing would stand in his way now.
"Point of order," Evil Chris shouted. "I demand that the student body star-"
The roof of the building suddenly imploded. Wreckage rained down on the crowd. The slow or the weak were crushed. Evil Cassie and Chris looked up to see their nightmares come true. Ultraboy and Ultragirl had escaped the cabin and they were PISSED. Evil Chris turned to the boy he thought of as "Razor."
"Perhaps together we can-" In a blur of scarlet, "Razor" disappeared before his eyes. He screamed in terror as Ultraboy reached for him.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Outside Evil Dr. Richards lab...
"Thanks, dude. You're a lifesaver," Chris gave Wally a manly one armed hug,
"No problem, bro. You came for me in time. Least I could do." Wally led Chris threw the door and his jaw dropped. The room was TRASHED. Every piece of machinery was destroyed. Chris, of course, didn't see this. He just rushed over to Cassie and then they were making out of course. Wally rolled his eyes. Yea, he never got tired of seeing that.
"Guys? Why did you trash everything," Wally asked.
"That was my idea!" Dani was practically hopping from foot to foot. "So the evil Reed Richards can't use anything here to try and track us to our home dimension!"
"Huh. Good idea. Okay, everyone gather around. The device they gave me to return us home has a small range." The kids all huddled around Wally and he pushed the button that would return them home. They screamed as they were sucked back into their own universe.

The following week rushed past in a blur. Classes gave tests, his friends went about in their endless social loops, and Teddy did his homework and practiced for his sports. Things were relatively, well, normal. It was strange, but a relief.
And so, if things appeared to be normal, he supposed that he should do normal things, like..maybe ...go on a date. Or at least a hang out. With someone he kind of liked.
This was what brought Teddy to stand outside of Billy's door, hesitant to knock. What if Billy was there? What if he wasn't? What did he say? What should he do? Should he make it a date, or just hanging out? What was the difference?
Wussing out, Teddy scribbled a hasty note on the whiteboard attached to their door.
B-
Let me know if you want to hang out.
-Teddy
Pulling out his cell phone, Teddy texted Chris.
Hey bro. Can we meet up? I need advice on girls.
Ok, so girls wasn't quite right, but it was close enough.

*After being pulled out an universe full of goateed nutbars, one did not want to have a party. Chris had gone to Blackhawk's anyway but fell asleep at the bar halfway through the night.
It had been a busy week with classes, ball games, and working at the library. In fact, he was at the library when Teddy's text came in.*
Girl advice? Teddy wants to date girls?
*Whatever. Teddy could date whoever he wanted. What impressed Chris more was that Teddy was coming to him. Finally, someone recognized his smoothness with the ladies! Wally West was the supposed ladies man with all his dates but Chris had snagged the elusive Captain of the Cheerleading Squad!*
Damn I'm smooth!
*Chris shot Teddy a text back to meet him at the library. He would finally get to start up the business he had been mulling over. Grabbing his laptop, Chris setup at a table for his presentation.*

Teddy frowned. The library? How was he supposed to talk there? You were supposed to be quiet in libraries. Regardless, he headed over, glancing once over his shoulder at Billy's door before turning around the corner to lose it from his vision.
k
Teddy wondered if he should have opted for Wally, but Chris seemed like the more approachable candidate. Plus, he was still sore about the whole 'Teen Titans' thing.
Stepping into the library, he noted the silence, the noses tucked away in books, and then he saw Chris, frantically waving him over. He waved, sitting down at his table. "So...," he began, "Uh. Dating."

*Chris spins his laptop around to face Teddy. The words 'The Christopher Powell Foundation For Getting You Some Action' fill the screen.*
Yes, dating. We here at The Christopher Powell Foundation For Getting You Some Action know you have a lot of choices in dating and dating advice services and we thank you for choosing us.
*He cleared his throat.*
Now, you may be wondering what The Christopher Powell Foundation For Getting You Some Action can do for you. Simple...we teach you to find the right lady and get you some action.

But don't just believe me, listen to this testimonial.
*Chris punched a button on his laptop and a video of him played.*
I used to stare through the window of the gym at the cheerleaders. I never thought I could date one. Now, with the help of The Christopher Powell Foundation For Getting You Some Action, I'm dating the head cheerleader at Hero High! And we're in love! Thank you, The Christopher Powell Foundation For Getting You Some Action!
*Chris shuts the laptop and sits down opposite of Teddy.*

Teddy blinked, baffled by the absolute narcissism that Chris seemed to possess.
"I...uh...I just wanted to pick your brain and see what you knew about Billy. I mean, I don't know him that well, and then we dated. Now we're not, and ...I'm not sure how to read him. Ever. I ...kind of want to give him another shot, but ...I don't know..what he's really like at all.
"I've seen a whole lot of Billys, Which one is the real one?"
Teddy frowned, wiping at an inky spot on the table with his fingertip. It didn't go away, and it only left him with a smear of black residue on the pad of his finger.

*Chris blinked.*
Billy? You said you wanted to know about girls. Hm...I guess this will work with him too.
*He cleared his throat.*
So, if there is one thing I have learned it's that deception will kill any relationship. You can't lie to her...I mean Billy...or youself, it never works out in the end. The problem of the multiple Billys is that he's always trying to be what he thinks someone else wants. He deceives himself into thinking that's what will work best because he wants you.
And he's so consumed with getting what he wants, which is you, that he probably he doesn't even realize how he's acting. My guess is he's thinking, "I'm doing everything you want so why won't you love me!!!" Kinda makes it all about him, right?
The problem here is to make Billy see his self-deceptions. He won't think he's doing anything wrong. If anything, he'll think he's being great and won't understand why you won't love him...making it all about him again. You just need to sit him down alone somewhere. None of us around, no hijinks or adventures, and for God's sake, no hanky panky. You sit him down and explain this all to him and that you just want him to be himself, not who he thinks you want.
*Chris beamed. He was really good at this!*

"Oh for the love of--!!" stressed She grabs her small computer form the room and goes to where Tommy and The Dweeb were sitting. For whatever reason she still didn't care that Tommy was not Teddy's name.
She could hear those idiots form miles away, didn't they know this was a library?!
"No talking!" She hissed at them, then sat with them, totally annoyed.
Karen's train of thought was officially derailed and she was just in the middle of writing her steamy love stories. It was at the part the green fiery jungle babe, saves the devilishly handsome blond, long haired, rich, pretty boy from the swamps and they were Just about to...
"Uhg! Are you two talking about love advice? Well who better to ask then me!? I'm a master at long distance relationships and those are the hardest to have."
Se pushed Powell's computer away and folded her hands in front of her.
"Tommy! You can't seriously be listening to this Dr. Phill crap? I mean since when did this dweeb get his degree in... well anything? Lets be real here. What you and your ex-girl friend are looking for is not some shrinking by a guy who got lucky with a girl who's desperate for attention and know's he's the safest bet at this school. Anyone else would have kicked her to the curb a long time ago for the crap she pulled."
She shrugs, Compleatly missing the point where Billy was male not female and simply not caring either way. Her advice was universal. And most important, better then Powell's.
"What you need is some hard hitting action. You wanna get to know him? That's what dating is for! To get to know people. Or Re-know them in this case. DAting is not a life long commitment. No one dose that anymore! You're free to date all the girls at the school but I think Wally and Dani you you beet there so I can see you going back for seconds with this Billy chick. Here's what you do. You walk right up to her. Grab her by the shoulders and plant a kiss so good that it will knock her socks off! Observe."
She turns to Powell, still in her romance novel mood, and not thinking clearly.
She firmly, yet gently grabs Powell by both shoulders leaning them both in and presses her lips to his. It was a quick kiss, to the point, but not with out it's own hints of passion.
She then lets go of him and puts him back on his chair. As if nothing at all had happened.
"See? No one can so no to THAT!"

Tommy?
He wasn't Tommy. "I'm--I'm Teddy."
Not that it mattered what his real name was. She was going to talk right over him anyway. She was going to talk right over Chris too. Hell, she was even going to kiss Chris, as if kissing would solve all of their problems.
"I think kissing Billy wouldn't get me anywhere since schmoozy make-outs seem to be his escape mechanism to avoid ...actually...being a couple."

*Chris fell backwards off of his chair and scuttled backwards.*
Karen! What is wrong with you!? This, this is serious business we're trying to conduct here. Go away. Find someone else to practice your kissing on. I'm taken!
*What the hell was that all about? One day she screams about staring at her chest, the next day she's trying to head to Makeout City with you.*
Teddy, ignore her. Just listen to what I said.

"So...what is he like around you guys? I want to know how he acts differently around me."
Teddy shifted nervously in his seat, looking at Karen, wondering if she would attack again.

"Oh get a grip, that was done solely for demonstration's purpose! As if i'd ever really kiss you?! HA! Don't make me laugh."
Karen rolled her eye, but didn't make eye contact with Powell. Instead focusing on Teddy? His name was Teddy? Like Teddy Bear.. Heh. Poor kid.
"Don't worry Teddy, I wont leave you with him. He'll just mess up your love life. When it comes to this kinda thing I'm the expert."

What kind of thing? Dating? Making out with guys without any permission? Being forceful and all up in his face?
Teddy shifted uncomfortably, running his hands through his hair. "Uh...ok?"
