A-N: okay people. This story is what I have seen based off the TV series. I don't know much about their past. So I will be making it up. There is no Terra. I'm just pretending she never came back. Okay, I believe I'm done.
Chp1. New Members ahoy!
It was a day like any other day in the titan tower. Star was mixing up some concoction in the kitchen. Robin was channel surfing. Raven was in her room meditating, and Beast boy and Cyborg had went into town for groceries.
'Hmm hmm hope my friends like the pudding of cheerfulness? Now where is the mustard?' Starfire thought to herself happily.
"HEY GUYS! COME AND LOOK AT WHAT WE FOUND." Loud voices yelled from the living room.
Putting down her bubbling blue bowl of terror Starfire left the kitchen to investigate.
"What was that?" Robin asked not looking from the TV.
"Our friends have returned and have brought something for us to look at." Starfire said all cheery.
"Uh...okay...I'll be right there." He said continuing to flip through channels.
"Dude we are right here behind you!" Beast Boy said as he and Cyborg stood behind the couch facing Starfire.
"Oh...okay then that's quite enough TV." Standing up, Robin stretched before joining Starfire on the other side.
"So what's up guys, what is it that you had to show us?"
"Should we not wait for Raven?" Starfire inquired.
"Nahh...she's meditating she won't be down for an hour or so." Robin replied calmly before focusing his attention back to the broadly grinning Cyborg and Beastboy. "Now, what did you two find instead of bringing the groceries?"
"Well now don't get excited, but tah dah!" after Cyborg finished speaking, both he and Beastboy stepped to the side to reveal a slightly burly teenage boy.
The boy was taller than Beastboy, but shorter than Cyborg. He had long curly hair with long bangs that lay across his eyes. His hair was blue with lime green colored eyes. He was wearing a long sleeved blue shirt that stuck well to his muscled form, with a pair of black jeans.
"Hello there Titans my name is Naten." he said in some weird accent that none of them had heard before.
"You guys found a boy, oh how wonderful." Starfire yipped.
"What's with the boy?" Robin asked curiously.
"It's not him...well it is him, but not just him. It's what he can do." Beastboy exclaimed.
"Well what can he do?" Robin.
That's what all three boys seemed to be waiting on, for all of their faces split into mischievous excited looks.
"Well it's a good thing you asked. Cyborg?" Beastboy started as he indicated towards Cyborg.
"Yes why thank you BB. Now Robin, Starfire, Stand back and wait for a demonstration. Naten, you ready?" Cyborg said grinning like crazy.
"Ready as I'll ever be." He said almost lazily. And without warning, Cyborg blasted his sonic cannon (?) at Naten.
"OH MY GOD CYBORG WHAT HAVE YO...whoa!" Robin had started ranting but stood in awe as he saw Naten still standing there unscratched.
"He's Indestructo-Boy. We found him when Cyborg dumped a brick truck filled with whip cream on him. Don't ask."
"So can we keep him? We'll take good care of him. We promise."
"I only have one thing to say. Naten...welcome to the team."
"Why, thank you Robin." He said grinning as he shook hands with the boy wonder.
"But before you become an official member we'll have to see what you're like in the field."
"Okay no prob." He said grinning, before being attacked by the orange alien.
"OH JOY! MORE FRIENDS TOO SHARE IN THE EATING OF THE PUDDING OF CHEERFULNESS."
"Oh no thank you Star, but me and the guys ate in town before coming here." Naten lied, having already been warned about the antics of the little alien.
"Oh that's okay." She said sounding a little disheartened before perking up again. "That leaves more for Raven, I, and Robin." At this, the Boy Wonder paled and began to feel sick.
"No thanks Star but I'll just drink my herbal tea." A monotone voice said from a black hole that appeared in the ceiling.
"Aw. Here comes our little princess of darkness, Raven." Cyborg whispered into Naten's ear, as he looked spellbound at the hole.
Naten watched as a girl around his age fell through the hole only to land on her feet. Her skin was a light gray, but hey, he'd seen weirder, besides Beastboy was green, and Starfire was orange. She had short purple hair, and big beautiful purple eyes.
She had a jewel on her forehead. But what he noticed most of all was her figure. 'Nice legs.' He thought as a sly grin crept across his face.
Walking up to her seductive looking self, he wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her into a low dip.
"Oh Naten you animal." She giggled.
Not wanting to prove her wrong, he growled, sending her into another fit of giggles. "Kiss me Naten," she said lustily.
"That's what I was born to do baby." He said in a deep Barry White voice.
But before their lips could touch, Raven slipped her fingers onto his mouth and said, "DUDE!"
"Uhh...is he alright?" Raven asked just as confused as everyone else.
"I'm not sure, is he guys." Robin asked quizzically.
"How are we supposed to know we just met him?" Cyborg said as he began to shake the staring Naten, who was beginning to drool.
"Dude he just like zoned out or something." Beastboy said waving his hand in front of Naten's face.
"Hello? Friend Naten? Are you in there?" Starfire asked as she began to poke him.
"Riiight. Well it's good to see we have a genius on the team now." She said sarcastically as she began to fix the pot up for her tea.
Now everyone was looking at Naten again, who, still stared at the spot Raven had been in and began to drool.
"So uhh...what do we do about him?" Robin asked his eyebrow rose at the sight of him.
"Uhh...how about leave him here, and go get the groceries we forgot." Beastboy said aloud.
"..."
"Sounds good to me." Robin shrugged
"Okay." Beastboy said agreeing to his own suggestion.
"I'm driving." Cyborg said matter of factly.
"How about we get a pizza while we're out?" Robin suggested.
"Oh joy can we go to the place of shop and mall?" Starfire squealed excitedly
"Sure why not? You coming Rae?" Cyborg asked staring at Raven.
"No you go ahead I'll rather much stay here and watch the drool monkey." Raven said as she placed the teabag in the pot.
"Umm...okay want us to bring you something back?" Cyborg said scratching his chin.
"Ice Cream and cookies." She said simply.
"Ice cream and cookies?" Beastboy said unbelievingly.
"That's what I said."
"That's so unlike you Raven." Starfire said with a little concern in her voice.
"Yeah it's kind of weird hearing that from you." Robin said, putting in his two cents.
"I have a sweet tooth okay." She told them turning away from them as she got a cup from the cupboard.
"Alright then people let's move out." Cyborg yelled over their heads.
Raven watched as they all walked out the door, and as it slammed shut Naten fell to the ground.
"Yeah. Real genius." And with that said, Raven left the room, all the while sipping on her tea.
>>>>>>A while later. Not long. Just maybe a few minutes. >>>>>>>>>
"Ugh!" Naten groaned as he came back to reality. Realizing he was on the floor, he pulled himself up.
"Where did everybody go?" he asked himself aloud.
"Ah. I see you've awakened. Was beginning to think you'd died on us." A monotone voice said behind him. Turning around he saw her. Raven, standing a few feet away from the staircase, staring at him with a book in hand.
"Hi." He tried to say, but it came out in a high-pitched squeak. At this Raven raised an eyebrow. Clearing his throat, he tried again. "Ahem...I mean hi. I don't believe we've been properly introduced." He said regaining some of his cool.
Going over to her, he held out his hand. "Hi, I'm Naten."
Steady looking him in the face she just simply said: "Raven" then walked around him, heading for her favorite chair in the living room.
Not a least bit discouraged he hurried up, stood in front of her, grabbed her upper arms making her drop her book in surprise, and leaned over her, for he was taller, with waggling eyebrows. "You know, where I'm from, we greet each other with a kiss, so how bout it."
Raven's eyes widened, then she grew angry.
'Oh how cool, her eyes are glowing white.' He thought. Then all hell broke loose.
>>>>>>>>>>>>The Gang has made it home>>>>>>>>>>>>
"Is too."
"Is not."
"Is too."
"Is not."
"Is too"
"Is not."
"Dude shaving cream is too so much thicker than whip cream."
"See that's where you're wrong BB. Whip cream is thicker than shaving cream. It's a known written fact."
"Dude, written where?"
"In the Book of Known Written Facts."
"So Robin tell me again, how this conversation of pickles and hot sauce, came to the talking of the thickness of shaving cream and whipping cream."
"Uhhhhh...?" Robin couldn't say anything he was stumped as to why their living room looked like a war zone and why Raven was sitting in her untouched chair reading a book as if everything looked normal.
"Dude what happened here?" Beastboy asked as they all looked around.
There were things up-turned. Scorch marks here and there. Things broken things exploded. Things hanging on threads. Things just hanging. Lights blinking. Lights blowed out and absolutely no sight of Naten.
"Uhh...Rae, did you kill Nate." Cyborg asked casually.
"No." Raven said dully from behind her book.
"So...where is he?" Robin asked.
Not bothering to answer them, she just pointed up. And slowly, they all looked up to the ceiling, and their jaws dropped. For on the ceiling, wiggling around with muffled screams was a cocoon of Raven's Dark energy.
Just as slowly as they looked up, they looked back down at Raven.
"In the cocoon?" Cyborg asked.
"Yep."
"Is he okay?" Robin asked this time.
"Nope."
"Uhh, Raven..."Beastboy started.
"Why is friend Naten in a cocoon?" Starfire finished for him.
Finally, lowering her book she stood up and looked at them with angry eyes. "He just doesn't know when to quit." with that said and done, she began to leave, and as she walked under the cocoon Robin stopped her.
"Uhh...Raven are you gonna...you know...let him go?"
Turning around Raven sighed then rolled her eyes. "Fine."
"Ahhhhhh!" Naten Screamed as he fell to the ground at Raven's feet. "THE LIGHT! OH THE LIGHT! IT WAS SO DARK, BUT NOW I SEE THE LIGHT!" As he screamed this, he pulled himself up weakly, and now lent on Raven's shoulder for support as he rambled on eccentrically. "OH GOD, IT WAS HORIBLE IN THERE! THE DARKNESS...THE DARKNESS! AHHHHHHH! Oh hi you're back."
"Uhhh...yeah." Robin said just as confused as everyone else.
"You know Raven, even though you tried to blow me up, threw things at me, threw me into things, and locked me away in the Cocoon of Doom... I forgive you."
Raven just stared straight ahead at the others as he said this, arms crossed and an annoyed look on her face.
After saying that he forgave her, Naten hugged Raven and lifted her into the air. Raven still just stared ahead.
The others watched speechless as Raven stared at them, they watched speechless as Naten hugged her, they watched speechless as Raven's eyes glowed white, and they watched speechless as she blasted him away into a pile of over-turned chairs.
Breathing heavily Raven stared at him angrily then turned to the others. "He. Doesn't. Know. When. To. Stop...is that my ice cream and cookies." She asked looking at the bag Cyborg held.
He just nodded then held it out to her. Taking it away from him she looked inside, then closed it, held it to her chest, then sighed a contented sigh.
Turning to leave, a spoon glowed black, and levitated after her, as she went up the stairs.
The remaining titan's heads turned as the pile of chairs parted to reveal Naten. Rubbing his head, he looked up the stairs where Raven had disappeared and smiled. "Yeah...she wants me."
Just as he said that, a glowing black pot flew at him, hitting him in the head and knocking him out
"Well this should prove to be interesting." Robin said more to himself than the others.
And as part of the ceiling crashed to the floor, the others agreed readily.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Later. Not later, right quick. But a while later. And not a while later like going to the store and coming right back. I mean a while later like some birthdays could have passed later. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Everyone was busy doing something.
Cyborg and Beastboy were playing video games. Starfire was excitingly watching them. Robin was training in the gym. Naten was sitting in Raven's favorite armchair strumming on his guitar. And Raven was off upstairs doing whatever Raven does alone.
"Arghhhhhh!" an angry screamed sounded out from upstairs, causing everyone to stop what they were doing.
Not soon after Raven appeared at the foot of the stairs fuming and cloakless.
"Where are they?"
"What are you looking Raye?" Cyborg asked as they all stood up from there sitting positions.
Calming herself down, Raven answered back in her usual drone voice. "My cloaks. I can't find any of them. Have you seen them?"
"Nope can't say that I have." Cyborg answered her shaking his head.
"No luck here Rae?" Beastboy said raising his arms in the air. "Besides I'm not allowed in your room, remember?"
"I am sorry friend Raven, but I have not seen your...um...cloaks." Starfire apologized.
All eyes turned towards Nate, who had not stopped strumming his guitar.
Rolling her eyes, Raven sighed. "Nate have you seen my cloaks?"
"Why are you asking me? Why not ask Robin? Maybe he stole your cloaks. Why do I have to be the one to steal them?" he asked never looking up from his guitar.
"Just. Answer. The. Question." Raven growled.
"No. I have not seen your horrible, heavier-than-they-look, purple, hide-body parts-I-want-to-see cloaks."
Everyone stared knowingly at him.
"They're in your room aren't they?" Raven confirmed. And without waiting for an answer, she began to leave.
Turning around her eyes widened momentarily as she found Naten standing centimeters from her.
"They may be in there. They may be getting washed. Or they may have accidentally snuck out of your room, took a bath in gasoline, and committed suicide by jumping into the furnace. But you'll never know. Unless you show me some form of affection."
"Fine" she sighed causing everyone to face fault and Nate to go dreamy eyed. "I'll just go with out a cloak", and with that said she tossed Nate out of her way over her head, and then went up the stairs.
Getting to his feet, Nate yelled up the stairs. "That's okay I still win! You will never fine your cloaks! Muahahahah!"
"Dude your whacked!" Beastboy yelled to the clueless Nate.
"What are you talking about? That's the future mother of my kids."
"You should not push so hard to gain Raven's heart. You should get her to like you before letting her have your kids. Which I do not understand why you want to give your kids away to Raven in the future. Do you not like your kids?"
"Star, I don't have kids."
"But did you not just say..."
"You know what forget it. Just shhh...be quiet."
"Alright but I am still confused."
"Shhhh."
"You know what man; just leave Raven alone okay before you get hurt." Cyborg whispered to him as he walked passed.
"Raven wouldn't try to hurt me."
"I wasn't talking about Raven."
Well that's the end of my first chapter. The number of reviews I get for chapter one will determine whether I continue with the story or not.
