A Bizzy Bee
A Teen Titans Fan-Fic
Chapter One:
Jump City, Here I Come
I obviously don't own the Teen Titans or DC Comics. Duh!
So. Here's the story behind this fic, if you don't already know. I had the idea for this story a LOOOOONG time ago, so last summer I decided to post a few chapters…okay, ten chapters. They weren't that good, but if you want to check those out they're still on my page. Anyway, I put this project on hold, so I could rewrite them. Give the characters more development. Fix some plot holes. So, here's what I came up with. It's basically setting up the rest of the story, so no actual titans this chapter, but they'll be here in chapter two so make sure to follow this story! Anyway, I'm gonna shut up now, and let you read.
I was running again. From them. The people I had once called my best friends, whom I now called my worst enemies. I don't know how they found me. Or how I ended up in the woods, but I knew they were after me.
They were catching up fast. I could hear her voice behind me. I could feel the blazing heat coming closer and closer. The moon was a searchlight, looking for me. There was a fog around me, every time I breathed in, my eyes threatened to close, but I kept running. I had too.
It went on like this for a while, I couldn't just fly away, it would give away my position. But, as the saying goes, never give away something you can't afford to lose.
My feet pounded hard against the ground.
Thump! Thud!
Thump! Thud!
Thump! Thud!
Then, out of nowhere, I tripped over a tree root, and skidded on the ground. My foot was stuck. I felt like crap. My lungs were still burning, begging for air. The muscles in my legs ached. My hands were raw, from attempting to break my fall. I think my left one was twisted the wrong way.
I heard laughter from behind me. My eyes were tearing up at this point. This was it. I was done for. As the laughter got closer and closer, I remember thinking, "This is the end. It's all over." I tried to pull my foot out from under the root, but it hurt. My hands were almost numb, and I was barely even conscious.
They came from behind me, and I turned to see their faces. Dove opened her mouth to speak, but it wasn't her voice, and what she said made no sense, "Hey kid. Kid, Wake up! This is as far as I'll take you!"
I jolted awake. A man in his twenties was sitting in the drivers side of a Ford pick up truck. He looked slightly annoyed. "You can get out of my truck now."
It took me a moment to remember where I was, but I decided to hold that moment until after I got out of the truck. I opened the passenger side door and exited the Ford. I heard the man mumble some very rude things under his breath, as I watched the red truck drive away.
I looked around and thought about the horrible nightmare I had just experienced. Same one I always had. Great. Could they feel any more real? I had asked myself the same question a billion times.
I sighed as I remembered the events that lead up to this moment. I had been betrayed by my best friends. My team. I left the group. They came after me for revenge. I had to run again. Now I was headed to Jump City. I missed being a hero. I missed having a team.
I wanted to join the Teen Titans. I had heard stories about their leader Robin. He had left Batman, to be on his own, but he formed his own team. I wanted to be apart of it. But after everything I'd been through I had some major trust issues. I'd have to hide my identity. At least for a while. Once I knew I could trust them, I would reveal my actual name and backstory. That is, if my plan worked, and they let me join.
I also knew that they had once let another girl on their team, but things went wrong. After that, Robin was very skeptical when it came to people joining them. Well, they had a lot of honorary titans, but I want to be a part of the main team.
I know it will take time for them to trust me completely, but the same goes for me. When they trust me. I'll trust them. That's the way things are going to work.
Pick-Up-Truck-Guy told me he would take me as far as the Jump City boarders. Even from this distance I could see Titans Tower. A huge T on a small island just off the shore. My wings were buzzing with excitement underneath my shirt.
I guess I haven't really explained my powers yet. My name is Bizzy. When I was a kid, I was attacked by some bees that had been tested on at Star Labs(long story) and a few weeks later I had developed super powers.
I have wings. Insect wings. When their fully extended, they sort of look like dragon fly wings. They make a slight buzzing sound when I fly, but I've gotten good and making sure they stay quiet. I can also shoot black stingers the size of thumb tacks from my fingers and the palm of my hand. I have enhanced senses, I can sense emotions, when a person is around, and if a person is lying or not. I have small antennae, but you can barely see them through my thick black and blonde hair.
Yes, black and blonde. The best way to explain it is, when I got stung by all those bees it altered my genetics. When I woke up, my black hair had vertical blonde stripes. When I say blonde, I mean SERIOUSLY blonde. Like, almost yellow. I used to keep it dyed, but once I joined my first team, I embraced the part of me that had powers. But, I still keep my wings folded behind my back, so people don't stare.
My last power, takes a lot of energy and is pretty useless, so I don't use it a lot. When I concentrate really hard, I can shrink down and turn into a bee. Like I said, it's pretty useless, but it is a power.
My plan is to use my back-ground in cosmetics (another long story) to create a new identity for myself. A wig, some colored contact lenses, baggy clothes, and makeup applied in the right way, will make me look like a regular guy. Yes. I said guy. I know what I'm doing, stop judging.
My alias will be Buzz. My plan is to help them in battle, that way I can show my skills. Hopefully, they'll want to meet me afterward. I'll tell them I just moved here from Star City, and that I'll be seeing them around. From the point I think I can wing it, but I'll be keeping my guard up for sure.
With my backpack around one shoulder I headed toward Jump City. I was determined to be a titan.
I bet I know what you're thinking. So. Much. Better. Anyway R&R! Next chapter will be posted next Saturday!
