Chapter 1
The Invitation
It was another peaceful day for the Teen Titans in their tower. Robin was at the gym doing combat practice. Cyborg and Beast Boy were playing video games on the sofa in the living room/main ops room while Starfire was in the kitchen nearby preparing her favorite snack, her own personal blend of homemade Tamaranian glorck. Raven meanwhile was in her quarters doing her usual daytime activity, meditation.
Their hours of peace, were suddenly interrupted by a message alert. Robin, Starfire, and the other Titans gathered around the screen, particularly interested in what the message was about. "From where did the message come," Starfire asked Robin. Robin then replied, " It comes from the United States Navy." "Dude! This must be pretty big," Beast Boy added. Raven then added, in her monotonous voice, "Let's see what they have to say." Cyborg then said, "It looks like a live video message from Pearl Harbor in Oahu, Hawaii." "Let's put it on the screen then," Robin replied.
The message was then played on the screen and the image of a US Navy Admiral appeared on it. The Admiral then started to speak, "Hello. I presume you must be the Teen Titans and you are their leader, Robin." "That is correct, sir," Robin courteously replied. The Admiral then continued on, " I am Admiral John Harrison of the United States Navy stationed at Pear Harbor Naval Base. I wish to send this information to you. The Captain of the USS Nimitz, Matthew Levitt, has decided to invite you to attend a live fire training exercise on board the ship in the South Pacific off the coast of the island of Oahu. We would wish to know if you would be interested in attending the exercise. You can take your time to decide." "It'll be just a moment," Robin replied.
After a moment of decision, Robin then replied, "We accept your invitation." The Admiral delighted by the response replied, "Very well then, we will arrange a flight for you." Robin replied, "Thanks for the offer, but we already have our own plane." The Admiral then replied, "Well then see you in a couple of hours whenever you're ready to depart." And that was the start of the adventure that was soon to come for the Teen Titans.
