A/N: I don't own the Teen Titans but this idea is all mine. I do own Tara and the over Characters you won't recinguze in the future chapters. This is yet another revision and hopefully the las time I do it to this story. If you've seen my other versions and are still with me I am sorry I just think of ways to make this better. So please bear with me. I think this is the last time I'll redo this.
Chapter 1: SistersThe Titans were relaxing; it had been quiet almost all day. It had actually been a quiet week fir them. Raven was reading, Robin and Starfire were watching Cyborg beat Beast Boy, play Mario karts. The alarm went off and was followed by a collective groan from four Titans. Raven kept quiet as she placed her book down.
"Trouble," Robin said as he walked over to the computer.
"Who is it?" Cyborg asked.
"Doesn't say but let's go," Robin said as he took off out the door. The others followed closely behind him.
'Why do I have a bad feeling about this?' Raven thought. She was the last one out the door.
The Titans arrived at the jewelry store where they saw a girl with waist length blond hair, amber eyes; she was wearing a plain navy blue sweater, and a pair of brown capri pants, with a belt with many pouches.
'Terra,' Beast Boy thought, his eye lit up for a second, but he realized it wasn't her when he saw her eyes. He felt his heart shatter again.
"So you're the Titans?" The girl asked as she turned around to face them.
"Who are you," Robin demanded.
"I was expecting you guys to be different," the girl said ignoring Robin's comment, "This should be fun."
"Titans go!" Robin yelled, as he and the other Titans attacked. The girl jumped up onto the counter and smirked. Her eyes started to glow a dark blue.
'What is she doing?" Robin thought. He looked to his side only to be hit by something green. He was knocked to the ground as beast Boy attacked him. It took him a second to realized what was happening and another to get out from under the green changeling.
"Beast Boy what are you doing?" Robin yelled as he backed away from him. Beast Boy growled and attacked Starfire. "Beast Boy stop," Robin yelled as he lunged at the lion. He and Cyborg started to wrestle Beast Boy.
"He won't listen to you," the girl said. She was sitting on the counter now she seemed bored. She had her chin resting in her left hand, and was looking at her nails on her other hand.
"Who are you," Raven asked. She tried to go forward but there was a barrier between her and the girl. She seemed familiar like she knew this girl from somewhere along time ago. She had no idea why this girl was familiar other than the obvious that she looked almost exactly like Terra. Raven, using her powers, broke through the barrier.
"Rachel," the girl said, in disbelief, her composure fell, and she let her guard down. Beast boy stopped growling at Robin, Starfire, and Cyborg.
Raven's eyes went wide in shock, "Tara."
The girl nodded, Raven smiled, and the barrier Tara had put up fell. Raven mentally slapped herself. How could she be so dumb.
"Raven what are you doing?" Robin asked confused.
"What happened?" Beast Boy asked confused.
"Why aren't you finishing her?" Cyborg asked.
"Uh…guys this is my sister, Tara," Raven said.
"You have a sister," Beast Boy said his eyes wide in shock.
"Why were you robbing this place?" Robin asked. If Raven could trust her he could. He just wanted an answer as to why she was doing this.
"Oh…" Tara said.
"Yeah why?" Raven asked, her younger sister.
"I-I" Tara stammered. The look Raven was giving her made her uncomfortable, she didn't know why but it did. "I-I gotta go," She said and she ran from the building, leaving the Titans confused. She couldnt tell Raven why. She knew Raven would hate her if she knew the truth. Raven then ran after her.
"Somebody wanna tell me what just happened?" Beast Boy asked.
Raven followed Tara, "Tara what's wrong?"
Tara stopped running and turned to face her sister, "You weren't supposed to be here," Tara said, "He said you were dead," she said.
"What do you mean?" Raven asked confused by her sister's sudden outburst.
"He told me they destroyed you," Tara said tears stung her eyes. She refused to cry for it was a sign of weakness. It didn't matter that raven was her sister she was going to show her weakness.
"Who?" Raven asked confused.
"Slade," Tara said looking at the ground. She bit her upper lip and waited for Raven to get mad at her. She knew Slade must be a bad guy if he lied about Raven being dead.
"Slade," Raven repeated.
"Yes he told me you were gone because of the titans," Tara said.
"You believed him," Raven said.
"I didn't know who he was or anything about him, Rae I'm sorry I didn't know," Tara said. Her tears finally fell. She couldn't help it she was weak she always had been. Compared to Raven she was weak. She adkired Raven and her ability to keep her emotion in check even thogh she didnt really have a choice. She turned to leave. Raven put a hand on her shoulder and stopped her.
"Wait Tara where are you going?" Raven asked.
"I'm leaving you probably don't even trust me," Tara said.
"I don't sense that you're evil," Raven said in a monotone, and she shrugged.
"Y-you trust me?" Tara asked surprised.
"Yea," Raven said.
"Why?" Tara asked. She was confused she obviously had been working for the Titans enemy and Raven trusted her. She knew her sister had big trust issues. She hadn't expected this.
"Like I said I don't sense any evil around you," Raven said.
Tara smiled and hugged Raven, "Thanks Rae."
"You're hugging me," Raven said, rolling her eyes, "So Tara what about the others?"
"Oh them, well we got separated on our way to earth," Tara said, "So now what? What will you friends say?" she said hurriedly. She didn't want them to know what she had done, or who she had worked for.
"Come on you can stay at the tower with us," Raven said. "And we'll come up with something," she added. Tara smiled and the two girls headed back to David's Jeweler, where the titans were.
"Is everything ok?" Robin asked.
"Yeah," Raven said.
"So Tara where are you staying," Beast Boy asked.
"Oh nowhere," Tara said truthfully.
"You can stay with us," Robin suggested.
"Uh…Ok," Tara said.
"Greetings where did you come from, what is your favorite color, and do you wish to be my friend?" Starfire asked.
"Uh…Azerath, purple, and sure," Tara said slowly.
"Glorious," Starfire said as she gave Tara a bone-crushing hug.
"Need…Air." Tara gasped.
"Oh sorry," Starfire said as she let go of Tara.
"Tara this is Robin the leader, you've met Starfire, and the big metal guy is Cyborg and…" Raven said as she said she pointed to each member of the team, "And the grass stain is Beast Boy," she finished in a bored tone
"Nice to meet you all," Tara said.
"Hi," Robin held out his hand, Tara shook it.
"So Tara if you're Raven's sister why don't you look like her," Beast Boy asked.
"Well I don't know but..." Tara said but Rave elbowed her in the stomach, "ow what was that for?" Raven glared at her, "Oh you didn't tell them about the others did you?" Tara said.
"What others?" Robin asked.
"It's nothing forget I even brought it up," Tara said smiling.
