Mumbo watched as the girl ran off with the necklace. Her punching would have been nice, but he wouldn’t need her to beat this kid. The glove army simply let her run off before making their way towards the rock where Penumbra had revealed himself. As he talked the gloves started to corner him off at the rock. Unlike Mumbo, who had a brain, they weren’t really affected by the illusions and started in towards him.
Meanwhile, Mumbo was listening to the boy talk while using his hand as a puppet to mock him.
”So far all I’m seeing from you kid is a lot of hocus and not a lot of pocus.”
Taking a note of where the gloves were and the giant rock, Mumbo grinned as he pulled out two normal bombs.
”And if you’re not going to take the stage, I guess I’m just going to have to flush you out,” he said as he threw the bombs towards the rock.
Unfortunately for Penumbra, Mumbo’s greatest fear was to lose his wand and be normal, a fear that wasn’t exactly going to manifest himself when the wand was in his possession and infecting his mind with it’s magic.
As Rose was fleeing the scene, someone else was approaching it. Robin had gotten Penumbra's distress signal and had left the group he was currently with to explain to the police what had happened, and hand over the criminal. That had been a low-key theft they'd apprehended. This distress signal, probably wasn't. The Boy Wonder sped through the streets on his R-Cycle, skidding to a stop outside of the park, and racing the opposite direction of the panicked people.
When the Titan's leader made it to the scene, the ground was covered with slick black stuff he would eventually realize was ink. Mumbo was there, throwing bombs at a rock, and the boy could only assume that was probably where Penumbra was holed up. His hands went for his belt, pulling out a birdarang and launching it towards Mumbo.
"Final act, Mumbo," the Boy Wonder declared, launching another birdarang to hopefully get the magician's attention off Penumbra so the other Titan could escape. "Your next venue is jail." he added, because his author is terrible at coming up with really clever puns most of the time.
In a desperate move, Penumbra vaulted over the rock and ran towards Mumbo. He didn't care if anyone could see him. The bombs were wizzing towards him, and no one was there to h- ROBIN! For the first time in a long while, Penumbra was glad to see Robin. Recently, he'd been slapped in the face, with a pistol, hard, on Robin's account. It was surprising to see him here, not yelling at him. Then again, Penumbra realized his guns were gone so that put a damper on things.
As soon as he noticed Robin, Penumbra skidded on the ink and changed direction for his comrade, sliding to a halt next to him. “I just wanted a regular walk in the park,” he grumbled to Robin, waiting for orders, “but this clown showed up.”
At that moment, Penumbra pulled out a grapple gun cartridge and held one in each hand. If there was going to be a fight, he was going to do it with a new idea in mind. Attack on Titan, don't fail me now!
Well, it was looking it was time to make an exit stage left. Not only was he having to deal with the one Titan, now it seemed that the Boy Wonder decided to crash the show. If he was here it wouldn’t be too long before the other Titans started making their way here.
”Presto Chango!” Mumbo said with a wave of his wand, turning the birdarangs into, well, birds. Specifically doves; always had to go with the classics.
”Sorry Robin, but Mumbo decided to cancel that tour permanently,” he replied, taking a slight bow,”But you have all been such wonderful participants that I’ve decided to leave you a parting gift.”
Mumbo took his hat off and aimed the hole at the Titans. A rumbling could be heard as the hat began to shiver and shake. In seconds a giant firework shot out, Mumbo’s majestic mug right on the front, and headed straight towards the Titans. With the smoke and lights to serve as a distraction and cover, Mumbo made a run for it in the opposite direction.
Robin narrowed his eyes at Mumbo because that was simply the sort of thing to be done in this situation. The Boy Wonder's birdarangs had done no good, wheeling away in the sky now as white doves, and his attention was split as Penumbra tried to tell him something. This was, of course, the moment that the blue magician would strike.
It was usually dangerous to have Mumbo's hat pointed at your person. Robin had nearly been taken out by the thing a few of their clashes in the past, and so it didn't take terribly much brainpower for him to grab for the duelweilding Penumbra as a gigantic flaming rocket came straight for them. The Boy Wonder flung up his flame retardant cape to shield them. Luckily the rocket was more for show then danger, because it didn't explode when it hit the ground. Robin tossed a fire suppression disk at it, as he peered through the remaining smoke to see if their adversary was about to attack.
Like any good magician with a smoke screen, however, Mumbo Jumbo had abracadabrad away. Robin made a noise of clear frustration before turning to his teammate. “Are you hurt?” they would have to catch Mumbo another time. “Do you need a ride?”
Ooc: Robin's just gunna leave once Pen answers, so I consider this thread done. It was a really fun one. Thank you guys. <3

The roleplay takes place after the series end of the original Teen Titans animated show, but does not include the movie Trouble in Tokyo. Since then Robin has been on something of a recruiting spree, and many new young heroes have found themselves a home in Jump City as well as Titan Tower.
