Stars 'n' Stripes: Legacy
1: New in Town
The staff at the pizza place on Jump City Plaza were more than used to unusual customers, it was common knowledge that it was a regular haunt for the city's heroes, and they had seen a whole variety of fans, computer geeks and heroes from outside the city grace their tables. The group that sat at table fifteen on the second floor were no exception; five teens, three guys and two girls, anyone would mistake them for the Teen Titans, except that the Titans had paid their cheque and left ten minutes ago. These teens also wore costumes, and any tourists from various cities up and down the country would be guaranteed to recognise at least one of them through their costumes.
The first of the two girls was dark haired, she wore a sleeveless red body suit with a line of bronze stars snaking up her side and a gleaming lasso hang at her belt, the toe of one of her polished black boots bobbed up and down impatiently.
She sat next to a guy who wore a blue outfit, complete with cowl, which was scattered with white stars with it he wore red boots and a matching belt.
Next to him was the second girl, she had white hair and an eye patch over her left eye, she wore a black suit that had silver scales plating her arms and neck, long thigh length orange boots and a matching belt full of gadgets not dissimilar to what Robin would usually carry, strapped to her back were two katanas.
The guy next to her was easily the strangest of the group, he was completely red, had shoulder length greyish hair, two horns, a tail and glowing yellow eyes, he was bare chested and wore black trousers that were torn off below the knee.
Compared to his neighbour the last of the group looked pretty normal, he was dark-skinned and had thick dreadlocks, a silver mask covered his eyes and her wore a black top with a yellow lightning bolt on it, black combat pants and boots, a black and yellow over coat, a copycat version of Robin's utility belt was fastened around his waist and a large circle of metal that looked suspiciously like a manhole cover rested against his seat, and if you looked close enough you'd be able to see the words DARKOTA SEWAGE stamped around the edge.
If anyone got close enough to read these words they'd also be able to hear the heated conversation the five teens were having:
"This must be the lamest date I've ever been on," the dark haired of the two girls complained,
"Don't go pushing this on me Donna," the guy in the blue suit replied,
"Give it up Sy, at this rate we'll never find them," the second girl cut in
"I don't remember him asking you, Rose," the first girl, Donna, snapped
"What the- This again? Ok, Eddie, Virg, you can say that this time I honestly didn't do anything wrong, right?" This time it was Rose who complained,
The red guy looked up from the menu and looked from one girl to the other then to his neighbour, "A bit of help here Virg?"
The guy with dreadlocks yawned widely, "I say we go back to New York and order take out,"
But before the group could act any further on this thought there was a loud crash, a gargling roar and a rallying cry of "Titans Go!" could be heard from below them.
The white haired girl pulled a cowl over her eyes and nose, black on the left and bronze on the right, with only an eye slot in the bronze,
The girl in red took up her lasso and the guy who'd just suggested take out scratched his nose and stood up, on top of his slightly levitating manhole cover.
The red guy grinned, "Take out'll have to wait Virgil,"
The guy in blue nodded in agreement, "Yes, I think we just found the Titans."
