So this is my first ever fanfic, I hope you guys like it. I'm working on the second and third chapter right now so hang in there. Review if you like it...or dislike it. I want to make it better!
*Disclaimer* I do not own the Teen Titans, the characters, or any of their stuff (Well...I have a T-shirt :P).
The titans looked at one another, it was rare to have a member of the Justice League visit let alone Robin's former mentor. Batman stood a good foot and a half taller than Cyborg, his presence made the group nervous. What was going on? And who was his cloaked companion?
"Titans," Batman cleared his throat and spoke, "it is not my will to force anything upon you, I know of your past troubles with adding new members to your group."
No one turned to look at Beast Boy but they knew he was saddened, Terra was never coming back and she didn't want to have anything to do with them.
"I do not think we understand?" Starfire replied.
"Meet Enzi," Batman replied motioning to his companion, "Enzi is...well very special to the Justice League. We need a safe place for her to stay and as she is a teen we thought it would be wise to put her among her peers."
The cloaked figure stepped into the light beside Batman. He nodded slightly and she removed the hood. Her golden curls lay perfectly arranged about her face and her gray-ish green eyes seemed welcoming yet shy. She didn't speak but stood there waiting for a decision to be made.
"Excuse us to talk it over," Robin said curtly. The titans gathered around him in a group huddle.
"I don't know man, she doesn't seem bad or anything but is this really a good idea?" asked Cyborg scratching his head.
"A new friend would be most joyful, it would be a great Snardol Miskeff!" replied Starfire happily.
"If Batman is asking, I don't think we should say no. After all she has his trust," Robin said.
"Fine," replied Raven somewhat reluctantly.
Everyone looked expectantly at Beast Boy, he shrugged, "Whatev's"
"Hooray!" shouted Starfire, running up and catching the girl by surprise. She began a relentless torrent of questions as she usually did when she met someone she wanted to befriend.
"I'll take that as a yes," Batman seemed relieved, "I'm sure you will take care of her."
"What exactly have we gotten ourselves into," asked Robin.
Batman smiled, chuckling, "You'll be fine, just look after her."
Then the "Caped Crusader" was off. Robin turned his attention to Enzi, she seemed normal, not like a super natural being at all. But then again, he looked normal too without his mask and suit.
"Do you prefer colors of purple over the blue colors? Where do you come from? Is your super power indeed very powerful? Do you know the Batman well? Would you like to see my room!" Starfire's questions were relentless.
"Uh...I guess blue's better, I can't quite remember where I'm from...let's see, I guess it's powerful. I met Batman 3 years ago, he took me in, I guess I'll see your room sometime or another," Enzi replied trying to keep up.
"That's enough Starfire, you're going to scare her," Robin laughed as Starfire's face turned a bright pink out of embarrassment.
"So, what is your super power," asked Cyborg tossing a piece of popcorn into his mouth.
"I copy and use other people's powers," Enzi replied.
"Cool so like you can become a shape shifter?" asked Beast Boy.
"Yeah, if I met one," replied Enzi as Beast Boy's mouth dropped open in shock, "but since I've never met one I can't now."
"You mean you don't know anything about us?" asked Beast Boy, flopping forlornly on the couch.
"Not really, I don't get out much. The past three years I've spent trying to keep all the powers I had collected under control. It's not easy and if it get's too out of hand well...never mind. So...what do you guys do?" replied Enzi, looking at the floor embarrassedly.
"We do what any super hero does, stop crime," replied Raven, opening one eye as she meditated.
"So then you must notice the city is on fire," Enzi replied pointing out the large windows where smoke was billowing from the skyscrapers.
"What?" the group leapt up and dashed to the window. Robin looked down at his communicator, why hadn't anyone radioed for help? That was strange, but he didn't have time to think about it, "Titans go!" he yelled.
"May I come too?" asked Enzi, her eyes glowing hopefully.
"Come on!" replied Robin.
They dashed out of Titan Tower heading toward the city.
The scene before them was of total destruction, everywhere building were on fire. People ran despairingly through the streets trying to get away from the fire like creatures who attacked.
"Water, get water," Raven shouted.
Cyborg pulled a fire hydrant out of the ground, it gushed everywhere managing to extinguish a few of the flames. Raven pulled water from the ocean and dumped it where she could without injuring civilians.
Suddenly a huge wave splashed down on them, but instead of hitting them it was guided carefully around them. They turned to see Enzi her hands moved skillfully making the waves extinguish fires and take out the attacking fire imps. She smiled, a quirky sort of half grin, "I met Aqua Lad once."
They watched amazed as the fires were diminished and the people unharmed. They could see why Batman had said she was special.
A sort of rumble shook the ground, Enzi lost her balance and fell to the ground. Carefully she kept the water from crushing the city by returning it to the ocean. The fire imps that had survived sprung up once more, hurriedly racing to get at the one who'd extinguished their comrades. And then the earth split, Enzi quickly scooted away from the deep chasm that flames were bursting forth from. And then she was there, Arcis.
"New pal I see," Arcis smirked, "does she know how terrible you people are?" Arcis had just recently shown her face, she controlled fire and her little fire imp minions. Not a huge threat but definitely annoying.
"Leave her alone, Arcis," replied Cyborg blasting his Sonic cannon at her, she dodged skillfully. Timeforthemtogetburned, she thought.
Starfire shot down a fire imp while Raven bathed it in water, Robin dodged another trying to get at Enzi. Enzi seemed somewhat curious, but not unaware of her surroundings. Beast Boy was at her side trying to make an attempt to get close to Arcis in order to drive her away.
Enzi smirked, it was unlike her but she was kind of enjoying Arcis' antics. The thought of a new power also brought a slight grin to her otherwise emotionless face. She hadn't trained herself for three years in a cave to do nothing, she knew what to do.
She pushed Beast Boy aside, flying upwards to grab ahold of Arcis. The girl seemed shocked but not fazed. She quickly dislodged Enzi from her hold on her wrist and sent her falling to the ground. But Enzi had what she needed, gracefully she let a spiraling flame catch her. She had copied Arcis' power.
Her eyes held a new glow, they had a flame like glimmer to them now. Arcis jumped back in surprise, did she just gain my power? she wondered. She skillfully dodged a flame sent her way it curved back like a boomerang barely clipping a piece of her jet black hair.
Beast Boy turned into an elephant getting water and squirting it on the fire imps, Cyborg grunted in pain as one burned part of his human flesh. Robin, Starfire, and Raven weren't having any better luck, they weren't really equipped with weapons to deal with the fire imps.
Enzi couldn't ignore them, with one hand she began her water attack while with the other pursuing Arcis with flames. She could feel some her strength beginning to ebb, no!I have to hold on,I can't get worn out! she worried.
She'd had enough of this little game, it was time to show the Teen Titans what she was really made of. She stopped her pursuit of Arcis, it was useless anyway. Arcis wanted a fight, she'd come right back.
Her eyes glowed a deep purple, a little power she'd picked up from a time traveler. Everything stopped except her, in an instant she put out all the flames and took care of the fire imps. Next she pulled her friends to a safe location on top of a roof. She flew around the city making sure no one was in danger, she didn't have much more time she could feel the fatigue setting in. Last but not least she pulled out a pair of handcuffs Batman had made for her, they were made out of a special rock called Praesent bibendum. It was Latin for power barrier, which was exactly what it was. When a "super being" was chained with these it prohibited them from using their power, so far these were the only handcuffs that did such in the world. Her strength was ebbing, she quickly handcuffed the fire-powered girl and flew her to the titans. That was it. Everything faded to black.
It happened so fast, one second he was battling for his life against a fire imp the next moment he was on top of a building where Arcis was struggling with some odd handcuffs. Robin was confused. He stood in shock for a second until he realized what had happened. Enzi, he thought, if she was this powerful why had Batman left her with them?
The other were also in shock unsure of what had happened. Raven let out a gasp. Robin turned to look the direction she was, Enzi lay crumpled on the ground unconscious.
"That...that...how is she...?" Arcis sat up in awe, her face was that usually held a triumphant smirk was recoiled in fear and a touch of curiosity.
Robin grabbed her arm and pulled her up, "I guess that's for all of us to find out, of course you'll have to wait in jail."
Cyborg picked Enzi up gently and carried her towards Titan Tower, "We'll take her home, you and Raven can escort Arcis to jail."
Robin nodded as he set off with his much weakened prisoner, what was it with this girl? he wondered, was she really all that powerful?
Arcis was almost too dazed to struggle, Does she even have a weakness? she wondered, how will the master like this?
Okay! So that took a while! My hands hurt...but please review. I will try and add more chapters later this week or next!
