By now, they have moved close enough to the camera to frame Jinx's face in extreme close-up. From here, cut to a corner of the hall, which is promptly lost under the glare and dust cloud of a large explosion. When the view clears, Raven is levitating chairs and sending them in the HIVE's direction, while Starfire tosses off some starbolts from overhead. Beast Boy tumbles into view and clambers away to make room for Cyborg; tilt up to his head level as he backs up again, firing his cannon.
Cyborg: Split up!
Raven grabs y/n's hand and flies to a landing on the stairs and, after Starfire passes her, projects a couple of nearby fire extinguishers toward Mammoth at the bottom and y/n launches throwing stars. He merely swats them away and charges. Cut to a hall, where Beast Boy runs into view from around a corner and dodges the collapse of several wall panels. Emerging fro the dust and debris as a bobcat, he runs when the view clears, Jinx steps unhurriedly after him-she caused the panels to fall.
Jinx: Here, kitty, kitty. What's the matter? Afraid of a little bad luck?
Cut to inside the gym. Raven, y/n and Starfire burst through the closed doors and slam them shut again. A starbolt is fired against the frame and traced along the doors' outer edges to weld them closed.
y/n: Nice moves.
The two girls then back up a bit and trade a very nervous look, wondering whether the barricade will hold. y/n stands infront of them looking rather heroic in Raven's mind. It proves to be a moot point when the wall behind them blows out, throwing them to the floor. They look back toward it and find Mammoth's head protruding from a fresh hole-he just delivered a mother of a headbutt.
Mammoth: Hello, ladies.
y/n draws two uzis and reins bullets all over Mammoth's face
Cyborg retreats upward as one of Gizmo's long metal legs swings into view near the camera. Cut to a hall in which the runt's spidery shadow advances into view against the far wall, followed by the runt himself. He turns and approaches the camera; cut to inside a door, which opens to admit him. Cyborg peeks out from a corner across the hall, nips over, and peers in carefully after Gizmo. Pull back; he steps in boldly. Except for the light spilling from the hall, the place is completely dark. The blackness becomes total when the door slides shut without warning.
Cyborg: Hey!
A wall of TV screens comes to life, every one showing a close-up of Gizmo's grinning visage.
Gizmo: So, Tin Man, you got a heart under all that outdated crud-ware?
He turns away, but a single giant screen, also showing Gizmo, comes on next to him.
Gizmo: Not telling? Guess I'll have to take you apart and find out!
Tilt up to the ceiling on the end of this. The whiz kid's spider legs carry him into the light from those screens and lower him steadily toward Cyborg, who can only stare in complete shock. Cut to yet another hall; Beast Boy, back in human form, races around the corner and into view. Seeing no one behind him, he stops to catch his breath.
Beast Boy: Lost her.
He is, of course, referring to Jinx, and he has spoken too soon. A couple of her spells pass just over his head, and the camera tilts up to show them hitting the ceiling there. A panel swings loose and cracks him dead in the face. His head rattles on his neck for a moment before he collapses; she walks up behind him.
Jinx: This just isn't your lucky day.
He sits rubbing his head for a second before transforming into a tyrannosaurus rex and roaring with enough force to shake the entire building. Jinx does a few backflips to get out of range, then stops and fixes a glowing stare on him. Around the green reptile, a ring of pink fire flares up briefly and floats toward his head before disappearing. There is a loud crackling from the floor, followed by the collapse of the section on which Beast Boy is standing due to her hex; he drops from sight. Cut to below floor level, the camera pointing up out of the hole, as she walks up to it and smiles. Now we see a storage area of the Tower, with a large circular hatchway in the back wall. This is smashed off its hinges by Cyborg, who emerges into this place unscathed. He is not alone; however; Gizmo comes out of the dust clouds and moves in on him. Cyborg steadily backs up before the advance; one of the metal legs swings at him, but he catches the end in both hands.
