"Shut up, already!" Raven shrieked as Beast-Boy and Cyborg played their video-games.

It was raining outside and Raven couldn't go to the roof—her favorite spot of the tower—and her room was currently under fixation due to a leak.

"Listen, Rae, once you teach BB, here, how to accept defeat—Booyah!" Cyborg rejoiced his victory by shouting his favorite catch-phrase.

"You have to have done something to the wire-thingies inside the game! You win every time!" whined Beast-Boy. Suddenly, the screen of the Titans' TV changed. Abruptly following, an alarm went off.

"Titans, go!" Robin ordered, racing for his motorcycle. Starfire and Raven flew over the waters surrounding the tower, while Starfire lugged Robin and his 'R-Cycle.' Beast-Boy morphed into a swamp green pterodactyl and carried Cyborg.

"What the…" Robin muttered as the Titans witnessed a dull-blue gorilla, slightly larger than the ones the little green changeling morphed into, fighting an angry Doctor Light. As the blue ape smashed his King-Kong fists onto the road, causing a massive tremor to knock Doctor Light onto his rear, the Titans sprang into action.

Raven sighed as she chanted her spell. "Azarath, metrion, ZINTHOS!"

"Jail, please!" Doctor Light whimpered for the third time. He watched in awe as Raven grew two more eyes, above her own, and expanded in height. Her legs disappeared beneath her cloak as hissing tentacles took place.

"That was too easy." Raven muttered and returned to her normal being. She turned to face the blue-ape, as did the rest of the Titans, as he changed into a normal, human being—apart from the fact that he had dull-blue skin. It was the same shade as Beast-Boy's, but in blue. In fact, Beast-Boy and the outcast looked identical. Of course the outcast was more built and intense, stronger, taller, sexier, hotter and had the sharp tooth protruding on the opposite side of his mouth, but the similarities were notable.

"J-John?" Beast-Boy spitted out the name as if they were unfamiliar and uncomfortable to his tongue.

"Gar?" the teen responded, "Long time no see, little brother!"

"Brother?!" The Titans gasped as they gaped at the two changelings.

"After you changed, I found some doctor who would do the same to me as to you. He said he was checking the genetic-makeup of our family." John explained.

"How'd you find me?" Gar/Beast-Boy whispered.

"Steve and Rita." John answered in an obvious tone.

"Right…" Beast-Boy laughed nervously.

"Who are your friends?" John asked, surveying the Titans.

"I'm Robin." Robin introduced himself, stepping forward.

"You're the kid who hung out with Batman." John mused. Robin seemed to have flinched at the sound of the hero.

"And I, friend John, am Starfire. I am in gratitude towards meeting you." Starfire greeted, only as an alien would.

"Tameranean." John noted.

"I'm Cyborg, this little dude's personal butt-kicker." Cyborg laughed. John smirked and turned at the last Titan remaining unknown, looking her athletic built over. Impressive, hot and hard to get. John scoffed in his mind, enjoying Raven's very being.

"Raven." The cloaked mistress stated with her glaring stare. Wow. Raven thought as she concealed her emotions, tightly. She secretly had always thought Beast-Boy was cute, but John… he was beyond gorgeous.

"I'm John." John gave them a polite, but eerie smile. "I assume you are the Teen Titans… west, of course. How old are you guys? Teens, right?"

"Eighteen." Robin stated.

"I am seventeen Earth-years." Starfire bubbled.

"I'm eighteen… nineteen in a few months." Cyborg offered proudly.

"Seventeen." Raven muttered. Why do I feel so compelled to answer him? So drawn to him, like a magnet? Raven thought as she remained in the shadows.

"I guess I make the cut." John grinned. "Nineteen years old."

"Hmph." Grunted the eighteen-year-old Beast-Boy, already seeing the attraction between John and Raven, his girl.

"So, this is your new family?" John asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Yeah, I guess it is." Beast-Boy answered, annoyed.

The Titans and John as headed back to the tower, the same way they came, with the acception of two pterodactyls. Once inside, Robin interrogated John. Beast-Boy watched and the rest of the Titans watched as John revealed his past.

"What happened to your parents?" Robin asked, pushing John.

"They died, as did yours." John remarked, pissed that Robin would need to know. Robin glared at him, but realized his own mistake.

"I'm done." Robin stated, picking up his papers; which consisited of one hundred fifty questions and answers.

"Beast-Boy, why don't you and John bunk together for the night, you do have a bunk-bed." Robin suggested, leaving Beast-Boy to mumble and storm off.

"What's his problem?" John said, giving them a look that belonged to the face of a model. The remaining Titans all instantly liked John, and watched him trail Beast-Boy.

"So..." John started, laying on the top of the bunk-bed.

"I'm trying to sleep." Beast-Boy muttered.

"Well I'm not. I like that purple girl, Gar. Raven, was it?" John taunted Beast-Boy. Beast-Boy's eyes flickered open and just as he was about to say something, John hopped off the bed and headed out of the room.

"I think I'll go say hi." John laughed as Beast-Boy watched, shocked, as the door closed behind John.
