Disclaimer: I do not own the Teen Titans, but I think I own the package!
It was a rainy day. The rain outside was pouring down and everything seemed gray. The Teen Titans were inside their tower, bored and trying to kill time. Well, most of them were anyway. Raven was in her room, meditating, to keep her emotions in check. Robin was also in his room, feverishly sorting and digging through his files. Cyborg and Beast Boy were playing videogames while Starfire watched and cheered. They had ordered pizza and were waiting for it to come, if it could survive through the storm.
4 video games and 2 hours later...
D---I---N---G D---O---N---G!
"BooYa! The pizza's here!" shouted Cyborg, as he ran down the hall to the main door.
"Friends! Let us rejoice! The delicious round food you call pizza has arrived to our dwelling at last!" exclaimed Starfire delightedly as she gracefully flew to the main doors as well.
"Dudes! Wait up! Did you order the meatless pizza?" shouted Beast Boy as he quickly changed into a cheetah followed Cyborg and Starfire to the main entrance.
The doorbell sounded throughout the tower through the speaker system. A delivery was here! Raven growled, her eyes flashed and black magic enveloped her speaker, crushing it into dust as it fell. She HATED being disturbed, especially while meditating or reading.
'Ahhh well… I've stopped meditating anyway. Might as well see what in the world would arrive in a day like this. Probably Cy and BB ordered pizza or something.' thought Raven as she walked down the hall to the elevator. The elevator reached the ground floor and Raven walked to the main entrance where she saw everyone else looking like complete idiots just standing in the open doorway, gaping with their mouthes open.
"O-K, will somebody PLEASE tell me WHY you are all looking like dorks and getting soaked in the rain?" asked Raven in her usual monotone voice. In response, the other four titans just made a space for her to look at what was at their front door.
'Weird. That's a little empty-headed even for Beast Boy; but for Robin and Starfire to do that? Something is either serious wrong, amazing, or very, very strange.' Raven thought to herself as she filled in the gap made by the other titans. She carefully looked at what the others were staring at.
At first, the package seemed pretty normal; just a big box with some holes, a rather large envelope and a smaller one. Then it struck her, it was so obvious! Her lower jaw joined her teammates' on the ground. The box was floating in mid-air, inside a sphere of some sort of semi-transparent, glittery purple thing. Surrounding the box, the envelopes were floating as well, in more spheres of the strange substance. She tapped the spheres. They were hard, cool, smooth and seemingly impenetrable.
'What could it be? It would have to be magical…' Raven pondered for a moment,' A force field! But who, why, and how?' Just then the box rattled, and short breathing noises were heard.
'Something in the box is alive! That could be dangerous. What did somebody expect of them? Why would it have come in such horrid weather?' thought Raven. Millions of question swirled around her head. But those would have to wait until later. The important matter was just ahead.
