>>100128282With your as basis, I feel like it could be a really fascinating 12-36 Issue run.
With this AU, I have an idea of a basic story.
Robin is kept on the team with threat of the nanobots. Eventually, he is joined by Terra and Jinx, the former as a second apprentice, the second as hired help.
Red X has shown up, to Robin's surprise and horror. At first he thinks that it is Slade's attempt of fucking with him. However, it turns out that Slade seemingly has no idea who it is although he is interested.
Slade genuinely has no idea who it is. I'd probably have it either by Grant or JasonMeanwhile, the Titans are still effective heroes against anyone but Robin and Slade's new team. However, Raven has been cutting herself off from the team ever since Robin's 'betrayal'. Eventually, this leads to her going "full demon" against Robin and his team, allowing Trigon to possess her. Teaming up, the Titans and Robin's team stop her. Terra, under the orders of Slade capture Raven however, and Slade uses a pendulum to take control of Raven's soul. This along with Raven's loosened morals due to her transformation cause her to join the team.
Slade eventually hires Red X onto the team, both out of curosity and a desire to screw with Robin. Together these five young criminals are Team Defiance.
Meanwhile, a secretive individual
Adeline organizes a team for Speedy, now called Arsenal. This team is composed of Damage, Ravager, Supergirl and Kid Flash.
There are two driving plots of the series. The first being the series are the Cat and Mouse game played between Robin and Slade as the latter tries to break the former while the former tries to defeat the latter. This leads to Robin going down a darker path.
For example, he willingly stays on Defiance even after his friends get rid of the nanobots in the hope he will find a way to destroy Slade and wound Ravager to see how Slade reacts..
