Prologue

Every 4th of July the ex-titans get together at Titans tower with their kids. Robin, now Nightwing and Starfire had the biggest group, 3. The oldest, a girl named Barbie (really Barbra, after Batgirl) and twins, Bruce (obviously after Batman) and Becky (after no one at all). Beast boy (Changeling honestly he can't be Beast BOY forever) and Terra had a son named Ryan. Raven and Aqualad had a daughter, Darcy, and Cyborg and Bumblebee had built themselves a son they called Bobby.

Cyborg was the one who had stayed in the tower when the others had gone their separate ways. Raven had gone to Steele City with Aqualad. Changeling (still weird) and Terra had gone to Lincoln (not Nebraska, just use your imagination) and Nightwing and Starfire had gone to Gotham to assist and aging Batman. Also as Richard Grayson, he was the vice president of Wayne Industries, poised to take over as CEO when Bruce retired.

Naturally the kids had superpowers, except for Becky, who only seemed to be stronger than your average girl. Her twin brother could shoot star bolts and fly in short, quick, bursts. Their older sister had all of Starfire's powers. Of course all 3 had been trained in martial arts by their father. Ryan could transform into animals, always yellow, and control earth to some extent, basically just move it around. Darcy's telepathy didn't just apply to fish, and she could also use magic, which included telekinesis. Bobby, being a robot had all of Cyborg's features and could also fly with rocket boosters, shrink, and learn and grow.

SO on with the story:

Together again

July 3rd was always a hectic day for the ex-titan now Justice League members. It was the day they all packed themselves and their kids up and headed back to Jump City and the annual titans BBQ.

Robin and Starfire always had the hardest time of it.

"Is that my shirt!?"

"No way, this is totally mine!"

"It is not! Give it back!"

"No!"

"GIRLS!" their father entered the room, finding the girls fighting, Barbie's eyes and hands glowing bright blue and Becky standing her ground.

"Neither of you is taking that shirt." He said. The words were barely out of his mouth when they began to protest.

"But it's my cutest one!" said Barbie.

"And it looks so good on me!" said Becky.

"I don't care!" he said. "I can't believe how much you two fight. You are 15 and 16 years old. It's time to grow up." He turned at left, but as soon as he was out the door, they started in over a swim suit.

He shook his head. "Bruce!" he called down the hall.

"Yeah dad?" came a yell in reply from one of the rooms.

He walked over and stuck his head in the door to find his son playing a video game, with a suitcase sitting empty on his bed.

"Bruce! We're leaving in 20 minutes whether you have clothes or not. Turn off the game and get going." He turned and left. All three of the kids reminded him of Cyborg and Beast boy at various times.

"Richard!" came Starfire's voice. He turned and went into the bedroom.

"Yeah Kori?" he said going to his wife.

"I can hear the girls fighting again." She said sadly. "I hate it when they fight, they remind me so much of…" she sighed.

"I know," he said, putting his arm around her. "But they're teenage girls; it's sort of their job." He paused. "We're lucky they aren't the twins." He added, grinning. She giggled.

"And Bruce?" she asked.

"Hasn't even started yet." She smiled.

"I'll go." She said, and she kissed him on the cheek before floating away.

"Darce, are you sure you don't want anything else?" Aqualad was looking at his daughter's small backpack.

"I don't need anything else." She replied simply. He sighed.

"Like mother like daughter." He said as he closed the trunk of the car. Almost in unison mother and daughter sat, buckled, and turned to look at him. He just stared at them when they both smiled.

"You two are really strange sometimes." He said, a smile also spreading across his face.

Ryan was standing in front of his full length mirror, flexing his muscles and checking himself out. He looked almost exactly like his mother, hair and eyes blonde and blue, just like her. Really the only difference was the slight green tint to his skin.

"Oh yeah, Barbie will totally dig me." He said smugly.

"And who wouldn't?" came a woman's voice from the doorway.

"Mom!" he groaned.

"What, you think just because I'm your mom I don't know what teenage girls like?" Terra asked, entering the room.

"No, I-" he began.

"You don't have to have muscles to impress a girl." She said sitting down on the bed in her usual spot, for she was often in there, talking to her son, as they were so close. Yeah, he was a mama's boy.

"I know, I married your dad."

"Dad's got muscle." He said.

"Yeah, now." They began laughing when none other than Gar Logan walked in.

"Let's get this show on the road." He said. "We are so not gonna be last this year!"

Mother and son rose and headed out after him.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------TT

"BB! What's up man?" said Cyborg, as the Logans walked up onto the roof. (I know his name is different now but it's just way easier to call him BB)

"Cy, dude!" they high fived.

"How's it goin Ter?" Bumblebee said, hugging Terra.

"We the last one's here?" BB asked.

"As usual." Replied Cyborg.

"Ryan!" came a shout from a corner. Bobby and Bruce stood there, beckoning him over.

Though Bobby was full robot, his father had done an excellent job making him as human looking as possible. His metallic "skin" was a shiny brown tint, his eyes, a completely human looking brown. The only real difference, other than being shiny, was the tubes that were still visible, and the robotic joints.

Bruce and his sister were nearly identical. They both had red hair, though his was short and hers was long and flowing. Both also had their mothers startlingly green eyes.

"Hey guys." Ryan said, flipping his slightly shaggy blonde hair out of his sapphire blue eyes.

"Am not!"

"Are too!" The girls fighting voices rang clearly through the air.

"You're sisters are obviously here." Ryan said his hand flying to his hair to mess it up.

"Of course Romeo." Bruce replied. "But I really wish you wouldn't look at them like that." He added, seeing the expression of wanting in Ryan's eyes as he watched the argument, Darcy between them, trying to stop it.

It was easy to see why Barbie had caught the Jr. Changeling's attention. She was the almost spitting image of her father, though obviously more feminine and her eyes had a bit more green added in with the blue. Her long black hair was pulled up in a ponytail and she was wearing denim capris with a white tank top and sneakers.

"Hey girls!" he called across the roof. They stopped arguing and turned around. "Wanna come say hi to your favorite shape shifter?" He grinned at them as Barbie and Darcy floated over and Becky walked, all the while glaring up at her sister.

"Hey Ryan." they chorused.

"But you're the only shape shifter we know other than you're dad, and honestly, I think I like him a little more. He's funnier." Said Barbie, flipping her ponytail over her shoulder.

He looked a little taken aback, but his 1000 kilowatt smile recovered and so did his ego, as he decided she was joking.

"Hey Bruce." Said Darcy shyly.

"Uh, hey." He said. "Again." He added as an awkward afterthought.

The sisters exchanged looks. He really was clueless, and this was one of the few things they agreed on.

"No way man, we are still not eating your nasty Tofu dogs!" Cyborg's voice rang out across the roof.

"Guess that means grubs ready." Said Barbie, leading the way toward the table. Ryan and Bobby hung back, Ryan watching Barbie and Bobby watching him.

"Maybe you can kiss her when the fireworks go off." He said in a teasing tone.

"Shut up." Ryan said. "Though not a bad idea." He said, considering.

"Yeah if you want the Boy Wonder Sr. and Jr. after you." Bobby said, clapping his friend on the back.

"It'll be dark." Said Ryan, still considering. Bobby laughed again.

"C'mon," he said. "Time for your last meal." And they set off for the table.

Ok so that chapter was mostly just background. The real plot starts in the next one, which I hope to have up very soon. I just have to type it. So I hope it's good so far. Like I said, this story is sorta my baby.
