Because the Zynothium Ore in the suit's power belt was nearly exhausted, Red X stole a handgun-like scanner which he could use to locate it. Some time later, however, the suit was stolen from the vault by an unknown third-party who intended to use it for his own selfish agenda. Since the Zynothium power core could not be disposed of safely, Robin stored the suit inside a vault in Titans Tower, never to be used again. Robin was back at square one, with one additional step backwards: he had lost the trust of his friends. The plan eventually went awry: Slade revealed his knowledge of Robin's identity, and while Robin managed to retrieve the chips, Slade managed to elude him yet again. However, Robin's haste in trying to get too close somehow exposed his identity to Slade, and in fear that if he told his teammates about his plans, they would not play their parts convincingly, he chose not to tell them. Bent on stopping the threat that the madman presented by any means necessary, Robin approached Professor Chang for the necessary items - particularly Zynothium to use as a power source - to create the Red X suit and, posing as a ruthless master thief, Robin stole several computer chips that Slade was after and offered them with a proposition to forge a partnership between the two. Red X was originally a cover identity that Robin had conceived as part of an attempt to get closer to Slade.
