♥ It's been a long, long time. ♥
I'm dedicating this chapter to Melanie, also known as iluvrobbie, because if it weren't for her I wouldn't have figured out how to post this or had the initiative to type and post this. So this one goes to you Mel!

Chapter 1 Who was that?
------------------------------------
"Starfire!" shouted Robin, the concern for her in his voice evident as she fell to the ground. He tried to get there to catch her but couldn't, then tried to see if she was alright but the Hive Five were just too strong and right now they couldn't beat them. They had surprise attacked the Titans and weakened them considerably before they were able to start fighting back. They were losing the battle and there was no one to call for backup that would get there in time and obviously the Hive Five weren't about to let them escape.
Suddenly, a girl superhero (A/N: Of course she's a superhero! No normal girl would jump into the middle of a battle between the titans and someone while the titans were getting beat) comes from out of nowhere and threw several smoke bombs. During the confusion the Hive Five were experiencing between wondering who she was, where she came from, and how they were going to get through the smokescreen cover, the Titans were able to get away with the help of the mysterious girl.
Back at the tower they had a chance to meet the girl. She was wearing a black long-sleeved top with gloves, a short black skirt similar to Starfire's, and black, just below the knee, boots. Her black top had a yellow oval with a black sparrow form in it. (A/N: The oval thing looks a bit similar to the oval with the raven in it, in above the tunnel path thingy in Prophecy when the Titans were finding their way through that old library or whatever. You guys get the picture.) And her straight, jet-black hair was pulled into a high ponytail in back.
As she took off her mask, revealing deep dark blue eyes that looked, somehow, thoughtful, and pulled her hair down, showing that it went to her mid-back, when down, she said, "Hey. The name's Roxy, also known as Sparrow."
"Hello new friend!" squealed Starfire, giving one of her famous bone-crushing hugs. "I offer you much gratitude for helping us."
"Just helping out. That's what superheroes do," she said as she shrugged it off.
"Can I talk to you alone, uh, Roxy, was it?" Robin asked, not noticing the momentary look of jealousy on Starfire's face, which she hid immediately.
"Sure," Roxy said coolly, as they went into another room, leaving the other titans very curious, and one a tad bit jealous.
Robin asked Sparrow about her past, where she came from and her family. As she answered his questions, his suspicions were confirmed. He knew Roxy. Not as Sparrow, just Roxy. It was very long time ago but he was positive.
Meanwhile, the other titans were wondering why Robin wanted to talk to Sparrow alone. What was up with him? He hadn't been acting quite normal since she took her mask off. They shrugged it off as something they would be told about soon enough, just a new member interview or something like that. They were too exhausted and sore from the fight to think about it long before they went to bed.
Soon after the other titans had gone to bed Robin finished talking with Roxy and showed Roxy a room where she could stay and crash for the night, maybe longer if she joined the titans. Robin went to his room and started thinking. He didn't go to sleep until hours later when it was from pure exhaustion and he couldn't stay awake at all.
When Roxy went to bed she felt strangely at home. She immediately took a very quick shower, changed into some pjs that were in a bag she had brought with her and went to bed. She fell right asleep and slept soundly though the rest of the night, forgetting to write about the days events in her diary.

Oooohhh! A cliffie! How does Robin know Roxy? Where does she come from? That's for me to know and you to find out when I write about it. Please be kind because this is my first fic. I know this chapter is short and all but I promise that I will work hard to make the next chapter longer. I just can't type much because I have a hurt wrist at the moment and I can only type so much at once because of school, homework and such. No flames please. And there will probably be a bit of Rob/Star, Rae/BB, Cy/Bee, but the main thing will be Rxy and another character I'm putting in that isn't quite original but his role and a lot about him is of my own creation. Well, you'll see what I mean eventually.
