''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6438013/1/A_Shadow_of_the_Titans A Shadow of the Titans]]'' is a {{Crossover}} between ''WesternAnimation/JackieChanAdventures'' and ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'' by [[http://www.fanfiction.net/u/1645311/Eduard_Kassel Eduard Kassel]].
Following an [[NoodleIncident offscreen]] battle with a demon, Jade is accidentally banished along with it, ending up in some sort of pocket dimension. While there, she is confronted by a mysterious being (whom WordOfGod names "The Cackler"), who offers up a [[CrypticConversation cryptic]] monologue before [[BalefulPolymorph forcibly transforming]] Jade into her Shadowkhan form. He then tosses her into [[AlternateUniverse another universe]] -- specifically, the universe of ''Teen Titans'', where a series of events soon sees Jade forcibly drafted into [[AcademyOfEvil the HIVE]]. Now, under the identity of Zhu Chan, Jade must play the role of supervillain while searching for a way to return home, and also dealing with the Titans, who -- due to unfortunate circumstances - end up viewing her as just another criminal to be defeated.
First part in a planned trilogy.
!!This story contains examples of:
* AcademyOfEvil: The HIVE. Jade is actually surprised at how much like a regular school it is.
* AlternateUniverse: The Titans universe is this to the JCA universe. The point is hammered home when Jade realizes the Jump City is the counterpart to San Francisco, with Titans Tower revealed to be where Alcatraz is supposed to be.
* AnotherDimension: The pocket dimension Jade ends up in in the prologue -- it consists solely of a small island floating in a multicolored void.
* AxCrazy: Gadjo, all the way.
** Mumbo is compared by Robin to TheJoker as an unpredictable force of ChaoticEvil.
** The adult Jade who appears in the "Destiny" interlude has shades of this, especially if you've read the [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6313351/1/When_I_Grow_Up oneshot]] she originally showed up in.
* BadGuyBar: The HIVE has one (apparently, being villains, they don't care much about age limits).
* BalefulPolymorph: The Cackler forcibly transforms Jade back into her Shadowkhan form (although she still has her normal mindset).
** She also gets turned into a monkey by Mumbo (to serve as her assistant), but that is undone rather quickly.
* BerserkButton: Jade suddenly seems to have a whole bunch of them. Her transformation and the stress of her situation seems to have given her a seriously short fuse. Naturally, this doesn't help her situation with the Titans any.
** Zombies appear to be one for Gadjo.
* BigBad: Brother Blood seems to fulfilling this role for the time being.
** BiggerBad: The Cackler, possibly. It's not very clear at this point.
* BloodKnight: Gadjo enjoys nothing more than a good fight.
* TheBrute: Mammoth and Gadjo. Also Susano, to an extant. And while we haven't seen much of Machete, from what little we have seen, she appears to be a rare female example.
* ClingyMacGuffin: Jade had the Rooster, Dragon, and Pig talismans on her when she was sent across dimensions, and after the Cackler's interference, they end up fused into her body.
* ClothingDamage: During Jade's first fight with the Titans, Robin hits one of the Talismans (presumably the Dragon), which causes an explosive release of energy that -- among other things -- fries most of her clothes.
* ComboPlatterPowers: In addition to the [[CastingAShadow shadow powers]] that come with being a Shadowkhan, Jade also has the [[PlayingWithFire Dragon]], [[EyeBeams Pig]] and [[PowerFloats Roo]][[MindOverMatter ster]] talismans at her disposal 24/7.
* ContinuityNod: When Jade realizes she's been accidentally banished in the process of banishing a demon, she's upset that it's happened ''again'', a reference to the time she was banished to the Netherworld along with Bai Tza.
** She's also not happy when she gets turned into a monkey by Mumbo, remembering the last time it happened (the original Monkey talisman episode).
* {{Crossover}}: Obviously. But in addition to crossing over JCA and TT, it also partially crosses over with another story by the same author -- the evil adult Jade who appears in the "[[MindScrew Destiny]]" interlude is (or is based on) the {{Cult}}-leading adult version of Jade who appeared in the oneshot "[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6313351/1/When_I_Grow_Up When I Grow Up]]".
* CuttingTheKnot: During one Physical Feats class, Jade is presented with the task of traversing a DeathTrap-ridden obstacle course and ringing a bell. Upon noticing that the course is circular, she just turns around and rings the bell that's a few feet behind her.
-->'''HIVE student''': Can she do that?
* DarkIsNotEvil[=/=]LightIsNotGood: Jade's villain persona (a Shadowkhan dressed in black and blue) is contrasted with Brother Blood, who wears gold and white (Jinx comments at one point that rather than the traditional light and purity, Blood's colors seem to represent greed and death).
** The two adult Jades who appear in the MindScrew-y "Destiny" interlude are a similar contrast. The good (or at least, non-psychotic) Jade is likewise a Shadowkhan in all black, while the outright villainous Jade wears white.
* TheDreaded: Gadjo has quickly earned this reputation among the other HIVE students -- they're all scared stiff of him.
* ElaborateUndergroundBase: The HIVE. Jade compares it to Section 13, stating that it has a better aesthetic appeal.
* EnemyCivilWar: At the beginning of the story, the HIVE is recovering from one, wherein Blood overthrew the previous Headmistress and ended up having to wipe out the Russian branch of the HIVE.
* EnemyMine: Jinx briefly teams up with the Titans after he captures both Jade and Starfire and forces them to be his "assistants". Jinx describes it as "sharing a mutual problem", and as soon as Mumbo is defeated she grabs Jade and runs off.
** The possible BadFuture glimpsed in the "[[MindScrew Destiny]]" interlude has another apparent example: [[spoiler: whatever "[[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast Omega]]" is, it's so bad that the Demon Sorcerers and the Eight Immortals (or a version of them, anyway) team up with each other and Good!Jade to stop Evil!Jade from releasing it]].
* EvilCostumeSwitch: Naturally, Jade is forced to take on a new outfit when she's recruited by the HIVE (and after the above mentioned ClothingDamage, it becomes necessary). She ends up with a mildly complex ensemble composed of a cloak over a robe over a karate gi, selling the fact that she's a magic user who can also fight hand-to-hand.
* EvilForeigner: Gadjo appears to be a Romany.
* FantasticRacism: Much like [[FanFic/JewelOfDarkness another story]] by the same author, there's a lot of subtle (and not so subtle) hate directed towards Metas and other non-humans. This ends up contributing to Jade being pushed towards the HIVE.
** Played for laughs when Jade accuses Beast Boy of doing racist profiling after he comments that she and Mumbo have a lot in common (them both being blue-skinned magic users).
** Susano appears to hate Jade based slowly on him being partially divine and her being part Oni.
** And Gadjo seems to ''really'' hate zombies.
* GratuitousJapanese: Jade tends to slip into this when under duress. Presumably, this is due to the influence of her Shadowkhan side, seeing as she herself is Chinese.
* GrievousHarmWithABody: When the Titans are watching footage of Gadjo fighting zombies, it mentioned at one point that he's apparently "whaling on zombies ''with'' a zombie".
* HeroWithBadPublicity: Due to her short temper during her interactions with the Titans and the random JerkAss civilians of Jump City, Jade ends up being labeled a public threat. And matters aren't helped any by her having to pretend to be a villain so that the HIVE doesn't kill her.
* HumanoidAbomination: The Cackler has shades of this.
* InsaneTrollLogic: Gadjo's "explanation" for how romantic relationship "really" work, which basically boils down to women using sex to force men to take out the garbage so civilization doesn't collapse. When he gives this speech to the Titans, they are all left dumbfounded... except Beast Boy, to whom it somehow makes sense!
* MacheteMayhem: The [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin aptly-named]] villain Machete (Gadjo's partner).
* MagicVersusScience: Gizmo and Jade seem to be quickly developing a rivalry based on this (the fact that they hate each other and are forced to share a lab space doesn't help).
* MindScrew: The interlude chapter "Destiny" features two adult versions of Jade -- one evil and one good (apparently) -- fighting each other. It borders on being a BLAMEpisode, except it's implied that it actually will be important later on.
* NoodleIncident: At one point, Jade is sentenced to detention in the [[IDontLikeTheSoundOfThatPlace ominously-named]] "Pit". The narration then cuts to the following morning, with stating that it was no big deal.
** The Titans view footage of Gadjo fighting zombies, but we only read their reactions to what they see and a few of his lines. We don't actually get to see what he did.
* {{Original Character}}s: Gadjo, Machete, Susano
* ShipperOnDeck: Gadjo ships Robin and Raven, since it fits his InsaneTrollLogic for romance.
* ShoutOut:
** Jade makes a few references to DC characters via {{Captain Ersatz}}es (to avoid any complications.
** Gadjo complains at one point that [[WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy the air dryers in bathrooms don't dry completely]].
** Gizmo at one point mockingly tells Jade to conjure up [[TheWizardOfOz flying monkeys]].
** A flashback to Jade fighting another student in an arena for a private lab space is highly based on a similar scene in ''WesternAnimation/InvaderZim''.
** There are quite a few references to ''TheTick'' (the author's a big fan, evidentally).
* StealthHiBye: Jade, naturally, now with the added help of her ability to hide in shadows.
** She actually ends up on the receiving end herself a few times, usually from Gadjo and Jinx.
* TwoAliasesOneCharacter: Jade takes on the name Zhu Chan ("Bad Omen") as her villain persona. Notably, this is the only name any character in the ''Titans'' universe know her by, and most seem to think its her real one. Meanwhile, the narration switches back and forth on which to refer to her as, depending on the situation.
* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: There's an odd variation here, in that Jade was apparently traumatized by the experience the last time she was turned into the monkey, so she's understandably freaked out when it happens again.
* WorthyOpponent: Gadjo apparently views Jade as one, and she can't decide whether that means he wants to be her friend or if he wants to kill her.
Following an [[NoodleIncident offscreen]] battle with a demon, Jade is accidentally banished along with it, ending up in some sort of pocket dimension. While there, she is confronted by a mysterious being (whom WordOfGod names "The Cackler"), who offers up a [[CrypticConversation cryptic]] monologue before [[BalefulPolymorph forcibly transforming]] Jade into her Shadowkhan form. He then tosses her into [[AlternateUniverse another universe]] -- specifically, the universe of ''Teen Titans'', where a series of events soon sees Jade forcibly drafted into [[AcademyOfEvil the HIVE]]. Now, under the identity of Zhu Chan, Jade must play the role of supervillain while searching for a way to return home, and also dealing with the Titans, who -- due to unfortunate circumstances - end up viewing her as just another criminal to be defeated.
First part in a planned trilogy.
!!This story contains examples of:
* AcademyOfEvil: The HIVE. Jade is actually surprised at how much like a regular school it is.
* AlternateUniverse: The Titans universe is this to the JCA universe. The point is hammered home when Jade realizes the Jump City is the counterpart to San Francisco, with Titans Tower revealed to be where Alcatraz is supposed to be.
* AnotherDimension: The pocket dimension Jade ends up in in the prologue -- it consists solely of a small island floating in a multicolored void.
* AxCrazy: Gadjo, all the way.
** Mumbo is compared by Robin to TheJoker as an unpredictable force of ChaoticEvil.
** The adult Jade who appears in the "Destiny" interlude has shades of this, especially if you've read the [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6313351/1/When_I_Grow_Up oneshot]] she originally showed up in.
* BadGuyBar: The HIVE has one (apparently, being villains, they don't care much about age limits).
* BalefulPolymorph: The Cackler forcibly transforms Jade back into her Shadowkhan form (although she still has her normal mindset).
** She also gets turned into a monkey by Mumbo (to serve as her assistant), but that is undone rather quickly.
* BerserkButton: Jade suddenly seems to have a whole bunch of them. Her transformation and the stress of her situation seems to have given her a seriously short fuse. Naturally, this doesn't help her situation with the Titans any.
** Zombies appear to be one for Gadjo.
* BigBad: Brother Blood seems to fulfilling this role for the time being.
** BiggerBad: The Cackler, possibly. It's not very clear at this point.
* BloodKnight: Gadjo enjoys nothing more than a good fight.
* TheBrute: Mammoth and Gadjo. Also Susano, to an extant. And while we haven't seen much of Machete, from what little we have seen, she appears to be a rare female example.
* ClingyMacGuffin: Jade had the Rooster, Dragon, and Pig talismans on her when she was sent across dimensions, and after the Cackler's interference, they end up fused into her body.
* ClothingDamage: During Jade's first fight with the Titans, Robin hits one of the Talismans (presumably the Dragon), which causes an explosive release of energy that -- among other things -- fries most of her clothes.
* ComboPlatterPowers: In addition to the [[CastingAShadow shadow powers]] that come with being a Shadowkhan, Jade also has the [[PlayingWithFire Dragon]], [[EyeBeams Pig]] and [[PowerFloats Roo]][[MindOverMatter ster]] talismans at her disposal 24/7.
* ContinuityNod: When Jade realizes she's been accidentally banished in the process of banishing a demon, she's upset that it's happened ''again'', a reference to the time she was banished to the Netherworld along with Bai Tza.
** She's also not happy when she gets turned into a monkey by Mumbo, remembering the last time it happened (the original Monkey talisman episode).
* {{Crossover}}: Obviously. But in addition to crossing over JCA and TT, it also partially crosses over with another story by the same author -- the evil adult Jade who appears in the "[[MindScrew Destiny]]" interlude is (or is based on) the {{Cult}}-leading adult version of Jade who appeared in the oneshot "[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6313351/1/When_I_Grow_Up When I Grow Up]]".
* CuttingTheKnot: During one Physical Feats class, Jade is presented with the task of traversing a DeathTrap-ridden obstacle course and ringing a bell. Upon noticing that the course is circular, she just turns around and rings the bell that's a few feet behind her.
-->'''HIVE student''': Can she do that?
* DarkIsNotEvil[=/=]LightIsNotGood: Jade's villain persona (a Shadowkhan dressed in black and blue) is contrasted with Brother Blood, who wears gold and white (Jinx comments at one point that rather than the traditional light and purity, Blood's colors seem to represent greed and death).
** The two adult Jades who appear in the MindScrew-y "Destiny" interlude are a similar contrast. The good (or at least, non-psychotic) Jade is likewise a Shadowkhan in all black, while the outright villainous Jade wears white.
