Chapter 1 new beginning:
At 17 Beast boy had grown quite nicely. tall, chiseled muscles, and more knowledgeable. But the thing was, beast boy had enough of his team. And his I don't give a shit meter was almost full. his teammates didn't respect his opinions, overlooked him for missions and looked down on him as well. they all thought they were picking up his slack,
(Beast boy's pov)
they almost thought of me as a burden. I heard them talking one night obviously without me like always. It was mostly robin he seemed to dislike me, raven was second witch hurt, I liked her and we did use to be close. starfire and cyborg were the least mean but even they would shit on me.
raven and robin would gang up on me she always agreed with him and I knew why, I know her secret she has a thing for robin. I seen her notes once by mistake she wrote about how good he is at everything, and how fearless he is, how she wanted to kiss him and how she was Jealous of starfire for having him. and I think he knew of her feelings and would use it to his advantage. because he knows she will always side with him, all he has to do is give her a compliment and that hurt, I thought we were at least friends.
But it didn't matter because I was on my way out anyways. I was indeed slacking and it's because I didn't wanna be a teen titan anymore, so I decided to fuck off, I was done with this boot leg team and now here I was on the couch thinking about what to do. but I didn't know where to go, I did have some money saved up, but where to go and what to do? I asked myself
I wanted To do something that I'd like to do. the TV was on and there was a recruitment commercial on, this one was for the Navy and I just caught the end of it.

Yeah….I had always wanted to join up since I was a kid. I mean who hadn't played army men at least once in there life. And I always thought a certain group was so awesome, and so I know exactly where I want to go, I smirk to myself why not be the best no reason to half ass it.
So with that I head out to town and down to the local recruitment office. deciding not to wear a disguise because I wanted to be myself. I walk in and am greeted by the aid who recognises me.
"Good morning sir how can I help you today?"
