I don't own the Teen Titans.
What If?
The stranger
It was early morning in Jump City. The Titans came into the Common room for breakfast. Cyborg was eating waffles and Beast Boy was eating tofu bacon. Starfire was eating who-knows-what-it-is. Raven stuck to her herbal tea. Robin just sat at the table. ''Shouldn't the alarm have gone off by now?'' Beast Boy asked. Right when the words left his mouth, the alarm went off. Cyborg groaned. ''Way to jinx us, Beast Boy'' he said with an angry glare. The Titans went to the location of the problem.
As soon as they got there, they saw a girl that looked almost like Raven. She had both her hands on either side of her head and she had her eyes closed tightly. One side of her head was shaved, and the other side had purple hair that went to her waist. She had a red gem in the middle of her forehead. Sliver hoop earrings hung from both of her ears, and her skin was the same color Raven's was. She wore a dark purple tube top that stopped a little bit beneath her chest and skin tight jeans hugged her legs. She had a dark purple, fabric collar on her neck and a matching one on her left, upper arm. They were both the same shade as her top. Sliver boots showed beneath her jeans.
She stumbled around a bit and objects were floating around her, covered in a black aura that was similar to Raven's. The police were on the opposite side of the Titans. They had their guns aimed at her. A policeman stepped out of a car and he held a mega phone in his hand. He brought to his mouth and said ''Stand down, or we will open fire!'' he said. The girl opened her eyes to look at them. Her eyes were amethyst, and they showed a look of confusion and pain. She wore dark purple eye shadow that was the same shade as her top. Her eyes widened and tears gathered in her eyes. She slowly backed up towards the Titans. She turned around and her mouth went a gap. She brought her one of her hands to cover her mouth.
''You'' she said, her voice barley above a whisper. ''It's you!'' she said, shock evident in her voice. ''Um…Yeah!'' Beast Boy said. ''Um…is it just me…or does she look a lot like… Raven?'' Cyborg asked. ''Who are you?'' Robin asked. ''No! You can't do this!'' she screamed, her hands rising back up to cover her ears. Her eyes squeezed shut again. ''This…isn't…real'' she whispered. ''It's just an illusion'' she told herself. Robin signaled for the police to fall back. They slowly retreated. The rest of the Titans surrounded the mysterious girl. The girl looked up and several tears ran down her face. ''How can it be?'' she asked. The girl looked no older than Raven, either. She looked at all of them. ''Is it really you? The Teen Titans?'' she questioned them slowly.
Her eyes rested on Raven and her eyes widened. ''Um… yes we are'' Raven answered. ''How is it possible?'' the Titans exchanged confused glances. ''Who are you?'' Robin asked. ''My codename is Shadow…'' she started. ''But my real name is Raven'' she finished. The Titans' eyes grew wide. Now it was their turn to ask similar questions. ''How is that possible?'' Starfire asked. ''Wait a second…'' Shadow said. ''It worked?'' she asked, rather confused. ''What worked?'' Raven asked. ''Reality jumping'' she said. ''Wait… you're from a different reality?'' Cyborg asked. ''Yes'' Shadow answered.
''Why'' Starfire was cut off as ''Raven''(Shadow) hugged her. Starfire's eyes widened as she looked at the stranger. ''It's so good to see you'' she said. ''All of you'' she said as she went over to Cyborg and hugged him. She did the same to Beast Boy. She stopped at Robin. Her eyes welled with tears. ''Robin!'' she said as she hugged him tightly. She stopped at Raven. ''I'm you, Raven'' Shadow said. Raven looked her up and down. ''I don't think so'' Raven (the real one) said. ''Yeah… I mean… you're both so different'' Cyborg said. '' See? She's actually smiling!" Beast Boy said, pointing to Shadow. Shadow smiled. ''And she's showing skin… and she has on make up!'' Beast Boy said, pointing out more differences. ''I have your powers, though'' Shadow said. She pointed towards a car, and it started to glow black and float in air. They also took notice that the stranger's eyes were glowing white.
She set it down and her eyes turned back to their amethyst color. She turned back to the Titans. ''But why would you want to come here?'' Robin asked. ''I don't want to talk about it now'' she said, her eyes welling with tears. ''Well, you're going to have to, sooner or later'' Raven said. ''Let's go back to the tower'' Robin said. ''You're coming with us'' Robin said, motioning for Shadow to follow them. She nodded and flew into the air, following Starfire, Raven, and Beast Boy. Cyborg rode in the T Car and Robin took to his motorcycle. In Shadow's mind, horrible images flashed before her eyes. She put one hand to her head and closed her eyes. She opened them and hoped to blink the terrible images away. The three Titans that were in the sky took notice, but didn't say anything.
Once they reached the tower, they all walked to the common room. 'It all looks so different' Shadow thought, inspecting her surroundings.
''So, why did you come here?'' Robin asked. ''I came for help'' Shadow said, sadness present in her eyes. ''Why?'' Starfire questioned her. ''My reality has been torn apart and yours is next. I didn't just come for help, I came to give a warning'' she informed them. ''What do you need to warn us about?'' Cyborg asked. Shadow averted her eyes to the floor, before answering ''Your reality is next''.
Cliffhanger! Duh Duh Duh!
