Disclaimer: I do not own Teen Titans. Or any songs I may or mat not use in the story.

I'll have you know, this is my first story. Well, not really, I've written stories before. Just…not fan fictions. So bear with me here. I like criticism. And my English teacher always helps me with that sort of thing when I ask. Prolly cause I'm like his best student. Which is cool. Cause he's a rad teacher. But yeah, critiques, love, anything. I like reviews.

Light, Love, and Broken Hearts

'I wanna live on the moon, never see a human again, and as the Earth explodes I'll light a candle for my dead best friends…'

Punch. Kick. Repeat. Roundabout. Repeat. Kick. Punch. Roundabout. Repeat. So the endless pattern went on as our heroes began their day. The mysterious boy wonder being the main character in focus here. He was doing his usual training routine, 6AM as always. But today he needed something, so, the radio was on. And playing a bit loudly one might add. Just loud enough to wake the occupant of the room above the training room of course. Don't you just love life's little coincidents?

"Ugh. I swear bird boy is getting it this time." But of course, this had been the third time this week the boy wonder had woken our darkest heroine a half hour early. Raven rolled out of bed, dressing and wandering into her bathroom for a few moments to brush her hair, before walking out of her room. The door making a 'swoosh' sound as it closed behind her. She started towards the training room, a rather glum look on her face.

Robin, oblivious to having woken Raven yet again, just continued with his endless flurry of attacks on the poor defenseless punching bag. This soon flew off its hinge and flew towards the wall, only to be stopped by Raven, err, Raven's powers. And flying back towards the boy wonder, caught by obvious surprise. Seeing as it hit him square in the chest and knocked him back.

"Hey, boy blunder. Keep the radio down. Better yet, break it. Because I don't like being woken up over and over." Came her monotone voice in obvious discontent before heading off to the kitchen for her usual tea before her meditation.

'I don't enjoy this place; my best friends are so mean. I look up to the sky when I am sad cause the planets don't get down on me. I just wanna fall asleep..'

Robin sat blinking on the ground, the punching bag laying on his chest still in obvious confusion of what just happened. "Err…Sorry?" But she was already gone. A lot of good that did. He groaned pushing the punching bag off him and shoving it in a closet, full of discarded punching bags, before heading out towards the kitchen for some breakfast.

'I wanna live on the moon. Never see a human again, and as the Earth explodes, I'll light that candle for my dead best friends.'

As the morning rolled by the other three titans came slowly from their quarters, Beast Boy last as always, before beginning their morning dailies. Like, fighting over breakfast. Which was happening at that moment with Beast Boy and Cyborg of course. Until Cyborg hit Beast Boy over the head with a frying pan after a nasty comment about Bumble Bee. Star Fire was sitting at the table lulling over Robin reading the newspaper, her usual comments and questions filling the air after the breakfast argument was finished of course. Raven was doing her usual meditation on the roof, her cape blowing in the light breeze the swept across the roof on this fine day.

'Mommy! Daddy! No!'

'Run Emily! Run away as fast as you can!'

'No Mommy! I can't leave you and Daddy!'

'Please Emily dear run! We'll be alright just get away. Hurry!'

A small girl, maybe five, with silver hair falling to the middle of her back and very bright and vivid purple eyes with tears flowing freely from them stood with her parents. She took after her mother, having her hair and eyes and general facial features. She was a pale color, soft frail milky white skin covering her entirely, aside from what was covered by the purple night clothes that were on her frame at the moment.

'But Mommy! I can't leave you and Daddy!'

'Go Emily! Get away from us!'

Tears fell freely from all three of the family members, as the father bent down and looked at the young girl, Emily.

'Go on kid. We'll be just fine your mother and I. We'll come and find you first thing. I promise.'

'Pinky swear promise papa?'

'Pinky swear promise. Now go! Hurry!'

He stood back up, looking at his wife as Emily gave a small pout before starting away, walking at first, backwards to watch her beloved parents as she did. But after a few more steps a figure appeared out of nowhere, snatching her up.

'Trying to get away princess? I think not my dear. I came here to kill the entire royal family. No survivors allowed.'

The tears fell quicker now, as she wiggled trying to get away. Her father ran over, trying to get her from the man, to at least save her, but his efforts were futile as another man appeared behind him with a pistol and shot him square in the back of the head. Emily's father fell dead, with a loud scream and wails from her mother. She had a simply shocked look on her face, she didn't understand, she had only turned five that very morning. The tears still streaked down her face freely, a few choked sobs emitting from throat as the man with the gun turned and emptied three rounds into her mother before she fell dead as well.

The man holding her laughed evilly, taking out a dagger. "No gun on the little one. I want to hear her scream." He said, before driving the dagger into her side. She screamed loudly, tears still pouring down her cheeks. He started twisting the dagger around, before pulling it out and driving it into her stomach and dropping the girly to the ground as she fell unconscious, which he assumed her dead and both the men disappeared.

"NO!"

Came the startled yell as a girl woke in a cold sweat, jolting upright from where she lay in a bed in a run down old motel. It was Emily. But a much older version of the young girl. A little over ten years older to be exact. She hadn't changed much at all, she still had her vivid violet eyes, silver hair, and her skin had gotten a bit paler actually. It wasn't quite grey, more like the color of porcelain fresh from its mold. She had on night clothes, even though it was well around ten o'clock now, but she had just woken up. Her pajamas were rather loose fitting pajama pants with and elastic waistband so they stayed up with various sizes of purple skulls covering them and a tight fitting purple tank top that showed a bit of her stomach.

With a soft groan she rolled out of bed and to the bathroom, doing a quick once over, brushing her hair and teeth before walking to her bag that sat on a chair and rummaging through it to find a set of clothes to put on. She pulled out various things from the bag, an old teddy bear, sunglasses, a few books, a make-up bag, and a hat before finally finding a suitable set of clothes for the day.

She wandered into the bathroom and shut the door, after a few minutes she came out with her pajamas under her arm and tossed them to the backpack before finding a mirror and looking at herself, disgusted. She loathed how much she looked like her mother. All it did was bring back awful memories. She put a hand over the silver key hanging around her neck on a thin silver chain, it looked rather old, and of the old style that you saw in fairytales. It never left her neck. She never allowed it. It was all to precious to her.

She shook her head a bit, letting her hair fall in her face and finding the sunglasses she pulled out of the bag earlier and slipping them on. They were the big style ones, with thick purple frames and dark inserts to hide her eyes. She hated those eyes with every fiber of her being. Nothing about them was of any good to her, she said they just reminded her of her mother.

She wore a skirt, not something exactly out of character for her. It was white, with a silver, black, and purple plaid pattern on it so it wouldn't seem quite as plain and fell to about mid-thigh. It might have been shorter should she have been a bit taller. Seeing as she stood a mere 5'4, not exactly tall for a fifteen year old. Her top was a tight fitting corset style top, black in color mostly, with a purple trim around the edges.

"Ugh. I need coffee.." She said, her voice a bit quiet but it sounded as if she had been crying. She hadn't though of course, but she almost always sounded that way.

Emily, or, Spectra as she told people to call her. She never much used her real name. Brought back memories. Spectra looked about the room for the make-up bag she threw from her bag earlier, before floating it to herself as a white force surrounded it. Not quite like Raven's. It had a much more cloudy appearance to it. She pulled an eyeliner pencil from the bag and pulled the sunglasses off for a moment to put a bit of eyeliner under her eye, and mascara on the lashes. She never wore much else. She tucked the items back into the make-up bag and slipped the sunglasses back on before finding her shoes, black leather boots that stopped just below her knees with a few buckles by her ankle. She grabbed a small bag that had her wallet and such in it before heading out of the room and towards the nearest place she could find that served coffee.

The titans alarm started blaring, Robin jumping up quicker than one could imagine and to a computer finding out the disturbance. "Cinderblock. On the corner of Main and Eastern, robbing a bank. Easy enough. Titans Go!" He barked, heading towards the garage and his R-cycle in a flash.

The titans head out accordingly after Robin, Cyborg in the T-Car and Raven, Star fire, and Beast Boy all flying.

They arrived on the scene before to much damage was done, Cinderblock having just smashed open the safe and starting to pull the money.

"Yo! Rack breath! Eat sonic blast!" Cyborg shouted, hopping out of his precious T-car and powering his cannon before firing it at Cinderblock, hitting him square in the back and angering him. Cinderblock turned around, only to take a few star bolts in the face from Star fire and a follow up car to the stomach from Raven after she chanted her usual 'Azarath Metrion Zynthos!'. He stumbled back a bit, narrowing his beady eyes before starting towards the team before having his feet frozen to the ground by Robin's discs and being charged at by Beat Boy in his Rhino form and knocking him to the ground with a grunt.

"Did we get him?" Beast boy asked, changing back to his human form and watching Cinderblock whom was still on his back. "Don't know yet." Cyborg said, his cannon charged and ready to fire.

A few buildings down the way Spectra walked from a coffee shop, her coffee in hand as she looked around for a moment, her eyes landing on the fight in slight awe. She cursed herself slightly for not bringing her sword or bow. But she still had her magic, if things got out of hand she might be able to help, with magic or simple hand-to-hand, she wasn't really sure if they would help much against the brute though.

Robin walked a bit closer to Cinderblock, with Raven and Star floating above, Star's hands glowing and ready to fire and Raven ready at any moment to chant her spell and fire away. Cinderblock shot up, snatching Robin and throwing him down the street a ways, rather fast.

Raven and Star started firing, at his face and upper half mostly, trying to knock him out so that the authorities could deal with him. Cyborg fired a few times, and Beast Boy morphed into a tyrannosaurus rex and started attacking at Cinderblock until he finally went down. At which point the titans remember Robin.

As Robin flew down the street, Spectra cursed under her breath, chanting something as well as a white force appeared behind Robin and catching him like a giant pillow and she raced over before the spell faded and lowered him to the ground. Robin sat blinking for a moment before looking about then at Spectra, confused a bit. "What was that?" He asked, looking around for any trace of what had caught him. "Foreign magic. Don't bother trying to understand it. " She said looking at him plainly as the other titans raced over looking at the two. "Yo, you alright Rob?" Cyborg asked looking at him as well as the rest of the team and doing a quick medical scan. "Yeah, I'm fine. She.. err, used some kind of magic I guess it was and caught me before any damage was done." He said, standing and brushing himself off before walking to Spectra and holding his hand out. "Robin, leader of the Teen Titans. Thanks for catching me." He said coolly, looking at the rest of the team for a moment.
"Spectra. And I've never heard of you, well, the rest of you. Dear Robin here is infamous. Assuming you are the same Robin from Gothem." She said, tilting her head to the side slightly.
"I am. And this is the rest of the team, Raven, Cyborg, Beast Boy, and Star Fire. Raven uses magic as well, but her's seems.. different I guess." Robin stated.

"Okay then. I think I'll be going now. Nice to meet all of you." She said, forcing a weak smile before turning and starting away. Star Fire gasped, grabbing her in one of her famous bone-crushing hugs. "Oh but you cannot leave! You have saved Robin! Your deed cannot go unrewarded! You must come to our home new friend Spectra!" She said cheerily, her ever apparent smile on her face.
Spectra dropped her coffee, struggling to breath for a few moments.
"Star! Let her go she can't breath!" Robin said, noticing as Spectra started to turn a bit blue.
Once Star let go, Spectra gasped for breath, narrowing her eyes slightly at Star before shrugging it off. "Don't do that again." She said flatly. "I'd rather not have another near-death experience."

Robin arched an eyebrow slightly, but shrugged anyways.
Raven stood off in the back of the group. 'A witch. Of.. some sort, she doesn't look like someone from Azarath. Or Tameranean. '
Cyborg walked up to her, holding his hand out as Beast Boy snaked in front of him doing the same. "Yeah! You should totally come back to the tower with us. You can play video games or watch a movie or eat tofu!" He said, grabbing her shoulders and starting to push her towards the tower.
Cy grabbed his shoulder, pulling him back. "You ain't feeding her any damn tofu. She can have meat like any normal person."

Spectra stood blinking oddly, obviously confused by the chatter. 'They're a team?.. You'd think they'd get along a little better..' She thought, watching them. "I don't eat meat. Or Tofu for that matter." She stated, "Thanks for the offer though, but.. I.. have.. err, things to do."

"You're lying." Robin stated, smirking at her.

"How would you know?" She asked, narrowing her eyes.

"Come on. Just come for awhile, I'd like to learn a little more about your magic." He said, watching her. Cyborg and Beast Boy still argued background, seemingly obvious to the rest.
Star looked at her with pleading eyes, and Raven floated up a bit. "I'm heading back. Feel free to join me any time." She said in her usual monotone before flying off.

Spectra sighed heavily. "Fine. But I'm not eating anything either of those two try and feed me." She said, looking back at them for a moment.

Robin let out a short laugh before leaning towards her for a moment and whispering into her ear. "I wouldn't eat anything Star tries to feed you either." He said, grinning slightly and starting towards his R-Cycle. "Can you fly?" Spectra shook her head. He tossed her a helmet. "Get on." He said, she caught it looking at it oddly for a moment before putting it on.
Star Fire gleamed joyously before darting off towards the tower. Cyborg and Beast Boy looked at her, finally dropping their argument. "I do have a car you know, you don't have to ride with the boy wonder there." Cy said, watching her. She shrugged. "Motorcycles are funner though.."

Beast Boy made a slight face. "No way! Mopeds are the best."
Cy shrugged, grabbing Beast boy and starting to the T-Car before getting in with Beast Boy and starting towards the tower.
Spectra laughed slightly, getting on the back of Robin's bike and slipping her arms around him to hold on before he revved the engine and did a wheelie before speeding off to the tower. "You do that again and I will never come to your tower. Ever." She said a bit loudly so he could here, only igniting a laugh from Robin as they headed to the tower.
