Taken Ch 1
Disclaimer – I do not own the Teen Titans, nor do I intend to profit from them. I OWN NOTHING! I own the breed of aliens though. Completely imagined with no influence other than my own mind.
It was 1:41 pm and the Titans were enjoying a nice day free of crime.
Beast Boy burst into the main room carrying a box that looked like a large pizza box, but he held it vertically.
"Dudes! Check out what I just bought!" he shouted excitedly.
"Here we go," Raven, who was on the couch reading, muttered.
Beast Boy ran to the center of the room and excitedly took out a plastic "Lazy Susan" turntable. He promptly turned into a small green cat and spun himself on it. The cat meowed rapidly, something that sounded like his trademark laugh.
The rest of the team just looked at the green spinning feline that they called their teammate.
"Uh, how much did you pay for that thing?" Cyborg asked with arched eyebrows.
Beast Boy reverted back to his human formed and started laughing really hard.
"Two bucks at a garage sale! Great buy huh?"
"Beast Boy," Robin said skeptically, "why do you need a 'Lazy Susan'? Our table's big enough and we can all reach the food. Well come to think of it, I don't know if we want to put food, even on plates, on a turntable that a green cat has spun itself on."
"What does that have to do with anything?" Beast Boy asked, oblivious to the plastic table's purpose.
"You don't know what it's for, do you," a deadpan Raven asked.
Beast Boy shook his head no.
"Idiot…" She walked out carrying her book and a fresh cup of chrysanthemum tea.
"I just thought it would be fun to spin on!" he cheerily announced, a big grin overtaking his face.
Starfire walked into the room carrying her pet, Silkie.
"Some Zorca berries, my little bumgorf?" she offered. Silkie made a gurgling noise and Starfire popped a Zorca berry in its little mouth. She giggled as she watched the worm chew happily as a little purple and pink surrounded its mouth.
Suddenly, Raven looked up from her book to see a purple streak zap across the bright blue sky. Following it was a bulky black ship.
"Looks like we've got trouble. Titans, follow that streak!" Robin ordered.
Raven opened a large portal beneath the team while Starfire quickly pushed Silkie away. The empathy rapidly transferred the Titans onto the roof.
Once there, Cyborg spotted the purple streak fly right about the Tower. The wind from the object's speed was incredibly powerful and the sound of the ship following it was fantastic. The ship started shooting lasers at the purple object, the final shot hitting it. The Titans heard a noise. A grunt. A human had been hit. Or rather, an alien.
The alien crashed into the nearest building, thoroughly smashing diagonally through five stories before it reemerged on the other side and created a giant crater in the middle of the street.
The team rushed over to examine the premises. They began to approach the alien, waving the smoke away. Three burly aliens with extremely grotesque faces stopped them.
"DO NOT APPROACH THE ALIEN." Even its gurgling voice was disgusting to listen to.
"Or what," a brave Robin stood.
"We will kill you, along with this alien."
A startled Raven gasped lightly as she felt her cloak being taken off her body. She tensed up and whipped around to see Starfire, wrapped up in her royal blue cloak with the hood up.
"Robin." Starfire reached out and lightly touched his shoulder. "Do not interfere."
"The human girl is right. Stay out of our way, humans," the tallest of the three aliens commanded.
Beast Boy began to speak. "Star? Oh she's not-Ow!"
Starfire had clearly stomped on his foot.
"Steer clear of us, Earthlings," the probably second in command alien said.
The shortest and fattest of the three headed over to the crater. The other two followed, but first turned to glare at the team with deathly stares.
The tallest and commander hoisted the victim up from the deep hole and cuffed it with a black gooey substance. The Titans simply stood there, mainly because Starfire kept pulling back anyone who attempted to go near them.
Starfire explained to the team why she had so completely covered herself and was so insistent about keeping distance.
"Those are the extremely vicious Victarran breed aliens! They are the cannibalistic type."
"So…" a disconcerted Beast Boy asked.
"They feed regularly on other aliens. They like to chop them up and eat them for dessert! They are highly feared on my planet."
"Why don't they like us? We're aliens to them," Cyborg noticed.
"Although what you say is true, they barely venture to Earth themselves due to our hot climate. They do not like the 'Global Warming' occurring here," Starfire explained, still hugging Raven's cloak around her body as if it gave her life.
"Sucks for that alien they've caught," Beast Boy joked.
The first in command alien turned and faced the team, slowly revealing the captive alien. It was nearly unconscious.
Raven saw it first. "Make that the Tamaranian they've caught."
Starfire gasped and nearly dropped Raven's cloak.
"Blackfire!"
Author's Note – I kinda rushed into this new idea because I had nothing better to do, but this idea feels like my first ever fan fiction because it's so undeveloped. I'd like ideas about how to progress in this story, after the second chapter. Also, this will probably be a very short story. I decided not to make it a one-shot because many people hate those for some odd reason, sometimes including me, but this one won't be one. Also I, as of now, AM TAKING BETA READER REQUESTS! :D! If you want me to read your story and edit, critique, the works, please feel free to message me and we'll talk. I'm kind of new to that docx thing too so I'll need some pointers, but I'll be okay editing wise. Thanks for reading this long note and proceed with the story!
