Metamorphosis: A New Arrival

Chapter 1: A Stormy night

"Aw Yeah Baby!" trumpeted Cyborg as his virtual robot character picked Beast Boys cybernetic avatar off the ground and broke it in half over its knee. "Dude no fair!" whined the little green changeling "You cheated! We agreed to no Mega Smashes." Cyborg smirked and said "You agreed to no mega smashes. I never said that I did."

Beast Boy balked and said "You sneaky son of a bitch!" as the boys got into a loud argument over the merits of their respective outlooks concerning Cyborgs use of an illegal move (in extremely colorful language and I quote "You're a cheating sack of shit and you know it!" and "Oh yeah well you're just a little asswipe whose too stupid to understand a turn of phrase.") Robin and Starfire entered the den to find Cyborgs hands wrapped tightly around Beast Boys throat in a grip that was slowly turning him purple and eliciting small gasps of air from his constricted throat. "Friend Cyborg," Starfire said in a curious voice "why does friend Beast Boy seem to be turning the color of a Glorpthakian Snikle Fruit Vine?" Cyborg immediately released his vice on Beast Boys throat and dropped him 3 feet to the floor. "Robin! Star! How was your date?" Cyborg asked completely skirting the question.

"It sucked." Intoned Robin "It started raining and we had to leave the park. Then when we tried to find a restaurant to eat at they had all closed down." Cyborg whistled "Bummer man." "Yeah… a real… downer." Gasped Beast Boy as he gulped down air. "Where is friend Raven?" Starfire asked Beast Boy "Are you and she not usually "making the score" at this time of the night?" Beast Boy blushed "Well yeah but…" Cyborg cut in "She found his porno stash that he keeps under his mattress." Robin stifled a guffaw and Starfire simply looked confused. "I do not understand what is "porno" is it some sort of food?" Cyborg, Robin and Beast Boy exchanged looks. "I'm not explaining it to her." Said Cyborg "Me either." Said Beast Boy. They both looked at Robin with devilish grins on their faces.

He blushed and was about to think of some way to evade the question when the proximity alarm blared and warning lights began to flash. "What's going on?!" yelled Robin over the deafening blare of the alarm sirens. "Unauthorized Proximity Entrance!" yelled Cyborg as he flipped open a console on his wrist and pressed a series of small buttons. "Holy shit! Whatever it is just completely demolished our outer defenses!" The alarms stopped blaring on the inside of the tower but continued to scream on the outside and over those they heard the sounds of machine gun fire, explosives, and laser blasts. The Titans then sprung into action and flew down to Cyborgs Garage. There they exited the tower and confronted the source of the disturbance.

Amidst a rising cloud of dust and debris a figure was battling Cyborgs home defense systems and from the looks of things was winning with absolutely zero effort. Even as they watched the intruder, whose face they could not see as it was obscured by a hoodie, ran with incredible speed straight at one of the guard drones, jumped, landed behind it, and then flipped it into the line of fire of a large machine gun. After dispatching the turret with a lunge and a wrench that completely dislodged the turret from the ground he denned to finally notice the Titans. However as he did a drone opened fire at his back. With a flick of his wrist the bullets ceased their deadly progression through the air and fell harmlessly at his feet. He then pivoted and like a movie ninja thrust out his palm and the offending robot exploded. He then turned fully and began walking towards the Titans. They tensed and made ready for battle. Raven having just joined them warmed up her magical powers and lifted several boulders into the air, Beast Boy shifted into the form of a tiger, Robin and Starfire shifted into complimenting battle stances, and Cyborg took aim with his Sonic Cannon. "Don't Shoot." The figure cried, throwing its hands into the air. The Titans were stunned. Never had an enemy asked them not to fight. Through the dust walked a boy of at least 15 with a black hoodie and artfully ripped jeans. "Who are you?" said Starfire as she warmed up her Starbolts. As the boy came into the light that was spilling from the open garage they noticed that he had skin that was paler than Ravens and light pink eyes that squinted in the bright light that the garage was spilling out. "Please my name is Skin and I'm looking to join the Teen Titans."

Notes: Yes Skin is an Albino. His powers are telekinesis, above average speed, super acrobatic, super strength, can create light energy weapons, martial artist (not as good as Robin but still pretty damn good), animal senses, total sense/ memory recall, mass manipulation, And at the cost of being unable to use his other powers he can turn his body into an organic weapon (Read Parasyte the Manga and you will see what I mean).
