"The small bird flies in the blue sky. The ocean reflects the blue of the sky. The blue reflection is the ocean of the sky. The ocean of the sky cries blue tears. And the small bird flies among the blue tears."- Li'l Bird Li'l Bird Colorful Colors
In the dark night against the gray sky, there was a figure with a feminine build standing at the ledge of a coliseum, with a cannon held on her left arm. Her eyes were a bright blue, with a circular design in each of them.
On the other side of the coliseum was another girl, but her eyes were a blazing green with the same circular patterns and had two giant skulls next to her. She held a menacing scythe in her hand.
The two girls both shared a glance. The one with the blue eyes closed her eyes. And when she opened them, her left eye shot blue flames. Then, the two girls charged at each other. Dead Scythe vs. *rock Cannon.
Mato ran quickly to the place her and Yomi used to meet. She hoped she would find her friend there. "Please, Yomi-chan, please be there!"
As she reached the pavilion, panting from lack of breath, she found nothing, much to her disappointment. It was empty. Mato gripped the railing, and collapsed, panting heavily. The girl tried so hard not to let tears spill.
Suddenly, something caught Mato's eyes. In a patch of grass, there was a shimmer of blue. She ran towards it, and found that it was the blue star phone charm she gave to Yomi. Mato felt a lump in her throat. She folded her hands. "Where are you, Yomi?" she asked as she felt tears filling her blue eyes. She held her hands over her chest. "Where are you?"
Then, all of the sudden, Mato saw that the charm was glowing. She gasped. What was happening? The blue light surrounded her. And above her was a shining star. Then, everything was white.
Mato slowly opened her eyes. Then she gasped. The girl found herself in a place with a cloudy blue sky and stars. "Where…is this?" she asked.
Mato walked and looked around for something and someone, with Yomi's charm still in her hands. The charm began to glow again.
"Do you want to save her?" a voice asked her. Mato looked at the charm and then looked around to find the speaker. She looked up and gasped. She found a girl that looked very much like her, only altered and a little older.
This girl had pale skin, and had two long ponytails; one was shorter than the other. She was wearing a black bikini top under a long black-blue jacket with white stripes on each sleeves and a white star on her left side of the chest and back. She wore black-blue shorts with two belts crisscrossed, gloves, a belt neck choker, and black knee-high boots. Also, the mysterious girl's eyes were bright blue, with a circular pattern.
"You care very much about her," the girl continued, "And she cares very much about you."
"You mean Yomi?" Mato asked hopefully. "Where is she?" But the girl just said nothing.
"I don't want to save her!" Mato answered, "I want to walk with her again! I want to laugh with her again! I want to see Yomi again, right now!" A blue energy surrounded Mato.
"I see," the girl answered, as she floated down. When the two were face to face, Mato asked, "Who are you?"
The girl paused.
"Who…Who are you?" Mato asked again, closing her eyes. Then the girl closed her own eyes. "I am…"
The two girls then merged together.
"I am…"
Then the combined form opened her eyes. Blue flames were shooting out of her left eye.
"Black Rock Shooter."
"Hey, Mato! You should get ready for school," yelled Mato's roommate, Nana. Mato sighed with tiredness, and covered herself with her blanket. Then, she stretched, and got off the bed.
Even though it was about a month and a week, Mato was still a little homesick. However, she felt excited to be living in America. She was a transfer student to a high school in Jump City, California. Her mother and brother were worried about her living without them, but they were proud of her. And thanks to Nana, she learned how to speak English.
"Oh, if only Yomi could see me now," Mato said to herself. Then she smiled and got ready for school.
Also, it was been a month and a week ever since Black Rock Shooter, her other self, merged with her. Mato found out that there were other selves that fight each other and endure their human counterparts' pain in the real life.
After Mato took a quick shower, brushed her teeth, and dressed up for school, she headed to the door.
"Oi, Mato! Don't you want breakfast?" Nana asked her.
"Ah, no, I'm fine," Mato assured her cheerfully. She is wearing a white t-shirt with a blue star, blue jeans and black Converse shoes. She grabbed her dark blue hoodie and book bag.
"Fine, then you should wait for me," Nana said, grabbing a piece of toast and grabbing her book bag.
The two girls ran to the bus stop. After riding for about ten minutes, they got off and entered the high school. The bell rang and Mato waved Stella goodbye after they both went to their classes. Mato went inside her first period room, and rested her head on her desk.
"Hey, Mato, how's it going?" a cocky voice said next to her. Mato couldn't help but grin. It was her friend, Jason. He had sleek black hair, and blue eyes. Sometimes, he reminded Mato of Yomi, except he was male and was more outgoing. Also, he was quite the trouble maker.
Often, Nana would tease her and say that Mato and Jason were boyfriends and girlfriends. That got Mato blushing. Also, it got her into the habit of calling Jason "Jason-kun".
"Eh, nothing much," Mato answered.
"Oh, great, here comes Kitten," Jason groaned, making a silent gagging noise, "And her creepy boyfriend."
Mato buried her head in her arms and groaned.
Kitten, your average blonde drama queen, was one of the worst people in this school. A lot of people don't like her, but there were some girls forced to be her friends that way they don't get picked on themselves. And her boyfriend, Fang, was what disturbed Mato the most. He had a spider's head for Kami's sake!
Much to Mato's exasperation, Kitten ranted to her friends, who looked as if they wanted to disappear. Mato rolled her eyes. Then the teacher came in and told everyone to settle down.
Looking outside the window, Mato couldn't help but feel like something might happen. Something strange and life-changing.
After high school, Mato headed towards the bus stop, with Jason at her tail. Mato was busy reading her favorite book, "Li'l Bird Li'l Bird Colorful Colors".
"Are you still reading that kids' book?" Jason asked, unimpressed. Mato blushed.
"Hey, it's a really good book!" she argued, "Plus, I'm not too sure many kids would actually like it. The bird dies in the end."
"Okay, it's pretty morbid, so what?"
"C'mon, Jason, cut me some slack. I have a bus to catch," Mato pleaded as she put the book in her bag. Then, Jason snatched Yomi's cellphone charm from Mato.
"Finders, keepers!" he said. Mato quickly ran to him.
"Hey, give that back!" she yelled. They kept running until they stopped at a park, almost barren. Jason held the charm above his head.
"Heh, come and get it, squirt," he taunted playfully. Mato tried to grab the charm, but couldn't.
"Damn his tallness," Mato cursed to herself.
"Come on, Jason-kun, quit playing around," she pleaded.
"What's the magic word?" Jason taunted once more. That definitely lit Mato's fuse.
"Jason, give it back now, or I'll kill you," Mato growled, her eyes narrowing and her face twisted in anger. Jason laughed nervously. Suddenly, Mato gasped.
"Oh, I'm so sorry; I don't know what got into me," Mato quickly apologized. It scared her, feeling some kind of killing instinct. What has gotten into her? Was it Black Rock Shooter? No, it couldn't be. BRS was more bent on putting people out of their misery.
"No, I should be the one apologizing. I didn't know it was so important to you," Jason said, handing Mato the charm. "In fact, what's the big deal about a trinket?"
"Well, it belonged to a friend of mine, and…this is all that's left of her with me," Mato explained to him.
"Oh, I'm sorry," Jason said, feeling a bit guilty.
"Oh, no, it's fine. I mean, we may be separated, but we still keep in touch with each other," Mato replied cheerfully. "She gave me her charm and I gave her mine, a bird."
"You guys must be really close, huh?" Jason said as we both walked along a path.
"Hai," I answered.
"So, can you tell me how, you know, you two met?"
"Well, it all started when it was the beginning of high school. During orientation, I saw a girl. Her name was Yomi Takanashi. I decided I should be friends with her. And it worked! We hang out with each other a lot, and we're both in the sports clubs. I was in basketball, and she was in volleyball. She also participates in the art club. She was pretty good," Mato explained to him.
Jason chuckled.
"But then, during the second year, we were in different homerooms and Yomi somehow felt left out after I made friends with Yuu. Then, Yomi vanished. She ran away. But then, the police found her, and everything was good," Mato finished, lying about the police finding Yomi. The truth was that she was possessed by Dead Master, Yomi's other self, representing her jealousy. Black Rock Shooter then fought Dead Master and freed Yomi.
Jason then placed his hand on Mato's shoulder, making the black-haired girl blush.
"Oh, I'm late for curfew!" Mato explained as she looked at her watch. "Ah, I'll catch you later, Jason-kun!" Mato said as she ran.
"Okay, see ya tomorrow!" he called back. Mato smiled as she ran towards the bus stop. Looks like she owes Nana a lot of explaining to do.
As Mato kept running down the street in the city, suddenly, she saw something blaze in the sky.
"Huh? A comet?" she asked herself. But this wasn't like any other comet. It left a green trail. Her eyes widened as the comet was dangerously close to impact. Then, she saw a green explosion.
"Rock, what do you think that was? Dead Master?" she asked her other self.
"No, the energy doesn't even match hers, and it's definitely not possible for her to escape the Otherworld," a voice, that sounds like hers but serious, explained.
"Well, we should still check it out. Who knows what danger it might cause," Mato said as she ran towards the impact.
She saw a lot of people crowded around a huge hole on the ground. Then, the smoke cleared and revealed a beautiful girl, with orange skin, red hair, light armor on, and some sort of bonds covering her hands. She had glowing jade-green eyes. Mato can feel BRS tensing. This girl was definitely not human. She suddenly began talking in a strange language, and attacked the area.
"What should we do?" Mato asked Rock.
"Just like what I do when it comes to an enemy: fight," BRS responded. Mato nodded, and she headed towards an alleyway where there was thankfully no one.
Mato stood still, and closed her eyes, blue energy surrounding her. Then, there was a white explosion. Mato was then transformed, wearing a long dark blue jacket, black bikini top, dark shorts, knee-high boots, gloves, and her ponytails were longer. The innocence in her blue eyes was replaced with a look of bravery, ready for war. Then blue flames shot out of her left eye.
"Now, let's find that girl."
Meanwhile, the alien girl was going berserk. She punched away cars, telephone booths, stone benches, and light poles. She was strong.
The onlookers on a balcony of a pizza parlor were nervous. Then, the alien girl headed toward the beam and smashed it with her bound hands. "I must get these cuffs off! I'm not going back to those monsters!"
And before she could deliver the final blow, a sound of a blade sliced through the air. A Bird-a-rang hit the alien girl in the face, her facemask thankfully protecting her, yet making her stagger to the left. She turned and saw her attacker, a teenage boy with spiky black hair, a black mask covering his face, a black cape, steel-toed boots, a red shirt, green pants and gloves, and a utility belt. It was no other than the Boy Wonder himself: Robin.
"Who are you?" Robin demanded, getting into a battle stance. The alien girl only responded by lunging at him and tried to smash him, only hitting the cement. Robin ducked to safety. He ducked as she tried to smash him again. She swung her arms at the Boy Wonder, but missed. Meanwhile, a girl in a blue cloak and violet eyes was watching them.
Robin couldn't believe his eyes as he saw the girl lifting a car with her foot, and she threw it at him. He ducked.
"Hmm, stronger than she looks," he said to himself. But he hasn't noticed it when the girl finally got the chance to punch him, sending him skidding across the blacktop. He groaned. Then, he ducked as the alien tried to attack him. He took out his bo staff, and delivered a blow to the alien, sending her crashing into a car. But, his bo staff shattered. "Not good," he said to himself. He saw the girl get up, smirking while cracking her neck, and said, "Zota."
Before she could attack Robin, he saw a goat hit her. The goat then changed into a kid, with green skin, a weird looking mask, and a purple and black suit.
"Ex Doom Patrol Beast Boy, sir! How can I help?" the kid said, with a slight squeaky voice. "Wowzers you're Robin aren't you sir?" the kid said, realizing he was talking to the famous Batman's sidekick. Robin tensed.
"Well you can start by not calling me 'sir'," Robin shot back, irritation in his voice. But the green skinned kid didn't seem to notice it.
"Well, let me just want to say that it's a great honor to be…" he started, but was cut off by Robin.
"Beast Boy, is it?"
"Yes, sir?" Beast Boy asked. Robin pointed to the girl getting up. With her strength, she picked up a bus and threw it at them. The two ducked. Suddenly, instead of the crashing of metal and flames, there was a figure that stopped the impact, using his own strength to catch the bus. He threw it to the right. The guy had a gray hoodie with the hood covering his face, and a strange red eye glowing in his left socket.
"Yo! Who's here messing up my neighborhood?" he yelled.
"She started it," Beast Boy reported.
The girl slammed her fist to the ground, letting the outer shell of the cuffs break free, revealing her hands. She shot green energy at them. They all managed to get themselves not killed, and ran like hell.
The alien still continued to shoot the energy bolts from her hands, until, a blue energy from above stopped her, sending her staggering back.
"What?" Robin started. He looked up. On top of a building was a girl, with a long jacket, and a deadly looking cannon on her left arm.
Enraged, the girl shot her bolts to the mysterious girl. The girl with the cannon jumped off, and fired her cannon at the alien.
Robin peaked from behind the bus, and had a closer look at the girl as she landed on the ground smoothly. She had a black jacket with a white star on the back, black boots, shorts, and bikini top, and gloves.
The alien sent a blow to the other girl, sending her sliding. The alien girl shot a barrage of bolts at the girl. And when the dust cleared, Robin saw that the girl used the cannon to shield herself, and both girls were panting.
"Psst! Over here!" Beast Boy whispered to the girl. She quickly ran behind the bus with the three other boys. The girl puffed.
"The girl's going to wreck the whole city," the African male muttered.
"I won't let her; I'm not losing this fight!" Robin growled as he cracked his knuckles. He saw the blue eyed girl look behind the bus.
"She's exhausted. Now is the time to strike," she said in monotone.
"Hey, who put you in charge?" the African teen angrily asked.
"I'm trying to prevent everyone and myself from getting killed," the girl responded, not affected by the teen's voice, "Now go!"
They all headed to the alien girl, until they were stopped by a black force field that took the shape of a raven. They were all surprised.
"Maybe fighting isn't the answer," the group heard another monotone voice. They saw a girl with pale skin, blue cloak with a red jewel, blue boots, and purple eyes. Then, the field vanished. Robin turned and saw the alien girl's hands sizzling.
"Stand down!" he ordered.
"What, you think you're the boss or something?" the African male said.
"Just give me a chance!" Robin said. And before the muscular teen could do anything, the blue-eyed girl stopped him by putting her cannon in front of him, blocking the way.
"Wait. Let's see if this works," she said. Then he nodded reluctantly.
Robin walked towards the girl, but she held her hands in front of her with green energy, beckoning Robin to stay away.
"Easy. My name is Robin. I don't want to hurt you, I just want to help," Robin told the hostile girl while reaching in his utility belt. But she responded something in alien. Then Robin held up a lock pick.
"It's okay," he said, smiling.
Beast Boy saw the blue eyed girl lower her cannon and in a blue flash, it disappeared. Beast Boy and the other male blinked at astonishment. How can she do that?
Robin then fiddled with the lock on the alien's cuffs. Then, the cuffs clanked on the floor. The girl with the cannon sighed with relief.
"There now, maybe we can be…Mph!" Robin exclaimed as the girl pulled him and kissed him. He blushed.
Beast Boy and the guy in the gray hoodie had their jaws to the ground. The girl with the blue eyes raised an eyebrow.
Then, the alien girl pushed Robin to the ground. "If you wish not to be destroyed, you will leave me alone!" she demanded in English. Then she flew off.
"So, I'm Beast Boy. Who are you?" Beast Boy asked. But no one seemed to notice.
"Well, whoever she was, the girl sure knows how to make an impression!" the African teen said as he observed the damage.
"True, but it wasn't intended," the blue eyed girl said. Robin was confused. "What do you mean?"
"I mean that the girl was scared, isn't it obvious?" she answered. But Robin seemed unconvinced.
"Didn't look like she was scared."
"Well, I think we made a pretty good impression," Beast Boy said, smiling. "She's gone, the cities safe, so mission accomplished, right sir?"
Robin looked at him in irritation, "Seriously, stop calling me that."
"Roger!" Beast Boy saluted.
"Looks like we're done here, I appreciate the help," Robin said as he walked away.
"You're going to track down the alien?" the girl in the blue cloak asked.
"To find out if she's a threat," Robin responded.
"More like find out if she's gonna give him another kiss," the hooded teen muttered.
"Hey, sir-I-I mean, Robin! Do you maybe…?" Beast Boy started.
"Sorry, I just went solo. I'm not really looking to join a team," Robin said.
"Need a sidekick?" the changeling finished. Then, he saw the others departing. The girl with the cannon pulled up her hood.
"You guys wanna go out for pizza!?" Beast Boy asked, desperately not wanting to be alone. The girl in black shook her head.
"I shouldn't," the other girl with the blue cloak said.
Then, Beast Boy headed to the last teen. "Just you and me then, huh?" he said to him. The other teen didn't respond. "Cool! I haven't really had anyone to hang out with since I quit the Doom Patrol. This is going to be fun! Can we play video games-unh!" Beast Boy exclaimed as he bumped into the guy.
The guy pulled off his hood, revealing cybernetic parts covering half of his face.
The girl with the black hood stopped and turned around, interest lighting her eyes.
"There, take a good long look! I had an accident and now I'm a monster alright? A Cyborg!" the cyborg said angrily. "You look at me good too, girl!" he yelled at the mysterious blue-eyed girl. She was unfazed by the hostility in his voice and walked towards him.
"Cyborg? Coooool! You're like Robot man 2.0," Beast Boy commented, as if he never heard the hostility in the cyborg's voice.
"You're a weird little dude you know that?" Cyborg told him. But Beast Boy laughed.
"You called me dude! So see ya later, right Dude? Dude?" the green changeling asked. The girl with the ringed blue eyes walked to the cyborg.
"Go away, I'm a monster," he muttered.
"You're wrong. You're not a monster. Besides, I've seen other people like you, and it doesn't make a difference, as long as you have spirit," she told him. Cyborg looked at her. "Y-You really think so?"
She nodded. Suddenly, she heard Beast Boy yell, "Dude!"
The two turned around and saw a shadow loom over Beast Boy. They saw a spaceship. The girl narrowed her blue eyes.
"Looks like space girl has friends," Cyborg stated.
"Or enemies," Robin said walking to the three. Then they were joined by the purple-eyes girl. There was a tower on a small island, and it shot a blue energy. It showed a hologram of a strange alien creature.
"People of Earth," The voice was scratchy, "We come to your planet hunting an escaped prisoner, a very dangerous prisoner! Do not interfere and we will leave your city in only minimal damage, but if any of you assist her then your destruction shall be absolute!"
"That's a big ship," Cyborg commented.
"And those are some scary looking aliens!" Beast Boy joined as he saw hordes of aliens coming out of the tower.
"They told us not to interfere!" The girl in the blue cloak said, stopping the cannon girl from making a move.
"Well, we can't just stand here. They're only going to cause more damage to find that alien girl," the blue-eyed girl said.
"I agree with you," Robin said to her.
"You're still going after her aren't you?" the cyborg asked. Robin nodded.
"Can we come to?" Beast Boy begged.
"I suppose I could team up just this once," Robin responded with a smirk. Then the group walked off. But they were forgetting something. The girl with the black jacket turned, and saw the other girl look at the ground.
"You coming?" she asked her.
The girl looked at the black-clad girl. "I-I'm not the hero type. Trust me if you knew what I really was you wouldn't want me around," she said, turning. But Robin placed a gloved hand on her shoulder.
"I know enough," he smiled. The hooded girl smiled back.
"So, I guess we should introduce ourselves," Beast Boy said. "You know, me, I'm Beast Boy."
"I'm Robin."
"Well, ya'll can call me Cyborg."
"I'm Raven."
"And you?" Robin asked the last teen.
"My name is Black Rock Shooter," the girl answered.
"Black Rock Shooter? Cool!" Beast Boy complimented, "But it's too long, so I'll call you Rock." BRS smiled, which was quite rare, as she pulled down her hood.
Meanwhile, the aliens were trashing the place, searching every building and car for the alien girl. But they haven't noticed the five teenagers hiding behind a wall.
"Alright," Robin started, "We need some way to track-"
"She's near," Raven said. The other four gave confused looks. Raven sweat-dropped. "I can sense things," she explained.
"I'll see if I can pick up her scent," Beast Boy volunteered. He changed into a green bloodhound and began sniffing the ground.
"I can scout ahead if you want me to," Rock volunteered.
"No. I can't risk getting you seen," Robin said. Black Rock Shooter nodded.
"There's a Sonic Analyzer built into my arm. So if she's around, I'll hear it," Cyborg said.
"Good," Robin said.
"I got her trail!" Beast Boy told them.
"And I can hear her heartbeat," Cyborg said.
Then, they all followed Beast Boy as he led the way. They stopped at a video store, where a big hole was blown.
"Now, what could that girl possibly would want from a local video store?" Black Rock Shooter pondered. Robin shrugged.
"Well, it's definitely not for DVDs," Beast Boy said. They went in, only to find the alien girl ravenously eating popcorn and candy, some with wrappers. Black Rock Shooter deadpanned.
"Uh, those taste better without the wrappers," Beast Boy told her. The alien wiped her mouth while dropping the half empty popcorn bowl, and turned around and snarled. Her hands glowing with green energy. Everyone flinched while Black Rock Shooter got into a battle stance.
"It's alright, we're friends, remember?" Robin asked her, trying to calm her down.
"Friends? Why? For what purpose did you free me?" the alien asked as she walked toward the five.
"Just…trying to be nice," Robin nervously answered.
"'Nice'. We do not have this word on my planet; the closest is Rutha, weak!" the girl snarled. BRS growled and took a step towards her until Robin stopped her.
"Well around here nice means nice and if you want us to keep being nice then you better tell us why the Lizard King took you prisoner," Cyborg told her. The alien's energy bolts on her hands powered down.
"Not prisoner, I am prize. The Gordanians delivered me to the citadel to live out my days as their servant," the alien explained, with sadness in her voice. Black Rock Shooter didn't miss that and she calmed down.
"And the citadels are?" asked Raven.
"Not nice," the girl said.
"Then you're not going with them, not if I have anything to say about it," Robin said.
"Um, don't you mean 'we'?" Beast Boy asked. Suddenly, they were pushed by a force as the wall blew up, revealing a horde of Gordanians.
"Seize her!" a Gordanian ordered. Both the teens and the alien army charged at each other. Black Rock Shooter summed her *rock Cannon and began firing at the Gordanians. One of the aliens lunged at her, but she swiftly jumped over the alien, and shot him on the back with the cannon. A Gordanian plunged his spear at her, but BRS blocked it with her cannon. Suddenly, she heard a crash and saw that the alien girl was on the ground, a Gordanian over her.
"Robin!" BRS shouted. Robin noticed and threw an enemy at the alien cornering the alien girl.
Black Rock Shooter then summoned her Black Blade, a black katana, and stabbed the Gordanian.
After a few minutes, the six teens were victorious, the other remaining aliens retreating.
The alien girl spoke up, "I believe your expression is 'Thanks'."
"Aw, man, my suit," Cyborg groaned.
"Mendokuse for you," Black Rock Shooter told him. Cyborg looked confused. Rock sighed. "It means 'how troublesome'."
"So? You look way cooler without it," Beast Boy told him.
"Yeah, like I'm taking fashion advice from the kid in the goofy mask!" Cyborg retorted.
"Goofy?" But my mask is cool, isn't it, Raven?" Beast Boy whined. BRS, Cyborg, and Raven shook their heads no.
"But what about my Secret Identity?" he wailed.
"What 'secret identity', you're green," Raven said.
Beast Boy stammered, and then he took off his mask.
"This isn't over. Now that we interfered…" Robin said.
"Trogaar will strike harder," the alien girl finished. "It is only a matter of—"
"Fools! The Earth scum were warned. Your insolence will be punished! Your city shall be destroyed!" the Gordanian leader rasped through the hologram. Then the image disappeared and a ship was looming over the city. People were panicking.
Raven groaned. "Great," she muttered.
"So, after trashing the pizza place and a pretty good pizza store, we now managed to make a giant space gecko mad enough to vaporize our entire town?" Beast Boy asked.
"Go team," Cyborg sarcastically said.
"All the fault is yours! I commanded that you leave me alone but you insisted on the being nice!" the girl yelled at Robin
"My fault?" Robin shouted back, "You blast me, you kiss me, but you never stop to mention that they had a gigantic particle weapon?" The two looked at each other, flashing lightning at each glance, as the continued arguing.
"Dude! I can't believe you talked me into this!" beast Boy yelled at Cyborg.
"Say what!?" Cyborg retorted. Then everyone was yelling at each other, except for Black Rock Shooter and Raven.
BRS did nothing but look on while the group argued.
"QUIET!" Everyone stopped and looked at the dark girl, Raven. "Hi," she said.
"She's right, arguing won't help solve the whole thing," BRS said. Then, Robin sighed.
"Look, it doesn't matter how we got into this mess. We're in it and we'll get out of it…together," Robin finished, with everyone responding with a smile.
Robin smirked. "Come on, we got a city to save."
Then, Raven used her dark energy to teleport everyone into the ship. Beast Boy shivered, "That dark energy stuff gives me the-uh," Beast Boy stammered as Raven stared at him. "I mean, it's cool!" Suddenly, Black Rock Shooter comically grabbed his lips. "Shh! Be quiet, or they'll hear us!" she hissed as she let go.
"We have to get to the firing controls. There isn't that much time," Robin whispered. Everyone followed him. Black Rock Shooter and Cyborg noticed that Raven was staying behind.
"Mind telling us why you're always by yourself?" BRS asked.
"You heard the kid. I don't exactly fit in," Raven replied.
"Beast Boy's green, I'm half metal, Rock can summon weapons out of nowhere, and that girl with Robin is a space girl," Cyborg smiled as he placed his hand on Raven's shoulder. "You fit in just fine." The three followed the others.
"I bring you apology," the alien girl said to Robin.
"Don't worry about it. I'm sorry that I yelled to," Robin replied.
"And again you are nice. On my world only my Knorfka has showed me this much kindness!"
"Well things are different here," Robin said, flashing her a smile. The girl blushed.
"Uh, guys? I think that they know we're here!" Beast Boy said, pointing to a group of Gordanians.
"Kuso!" BRS cursed. She held out her left hand and summoned her cannon. The rest got into battle stances.
Meanwhile, in the pilot room of the ship, a group of aliens were preparing the weapon.
"Lord Trogaar the weapon has reached full power!" One of them said.
"Then begin the firing sequence!" Trogaar ordered. "The Earth shall learn that it takes more than six juvenile heroes to defy the mighty Lord Trogaar!" He said smugly.
Suddenly, the wall blew open thanks to Black Rock Shooter, revealing the six teens. "We're not six heroes, we're one team!" Robin replied.
Trogaar roared, and the teens battled the aliens. Robin kicked one of them in the face, Cyborg slammed his fists down and smacked away some aliens, Beast Boy turned into a kangaroo and kicked away some aliens, and the alien girl used her brute strength. Black Rock Shooter fired at the aliens, and sent a blow to a couple of the aliens with rock Cannon.
Trogaar punched Beast Boy into a wall, and was about to kill him, until thankfully, Raven saved him and used her dark energy as shields from Trogaar's blows. But Trogaar broke through them. Then, Robin jumped on him.
"Beast Boy! Raven-san! Are you two okay?" Black Rock Shooter asked them as she was busy fighting the Gordanians.
"Yeah, we're fine," Beast Boy assured her.
Trogaar threw Robin off, but the Boy Wonder sent a couple of blows to the Gordanian leader, until Trogaar caught him and threw him against the wall.
The alien girl saw this. "Robin!" she cried.
Trogaar headed to the girl, but she threw energy blasts at him, until he grabbed her and slammed her into the ground. Cyborg rushed in to help, and they both gave Trogaar an uppercut. However, Trogaar punched Cyborg in the gut and the girl in the face, and his final blow sent them slamming against the wall next to Robin. Cyborg's right arm shifted.
"Can you rewire that into some sort of weapon?" Robin asked.
"I can try," Cyborg answered.
BRS ran to them. "You guys alright?" she puffed. Robin was about to answer, until…
"Gah!" Black Rock Shooter shrieked in pain. Robin's masked eyes widened.
"Rock, no!" he cried. The Gordanian leader stabbed Rock with a staff through her midriff. And most strange of all, instead of red, BRS's blood was blue. Black Rock Shooter staggered, and then she fell.
Robin looked down at her corpse with horror in his eyes. "No, this can't be happening," he whispered. The alien girl gasped with shock. Cyborg was speechless. Raven growled with fury.
"Get away from my friends! Azarath Metrion Zinthos!" she cried. Then, part of the ship blew up, sending it crashing into the water.
After the impact, Trogaar got up and stepped towards Beast Boy and Raven, his claws sharpening.
"Oh, and I forgot to mention: I'm not that easy to kill," a familiar voice spoke behind him. Trogaar turned, and horror flooded into his eyes.
"What? But I thought I killed you!" he bellowed with fury.
"Rock! You're…alive?" Robin asked. He could hardly believe it. In front of them, standing behind the Gordanian leader, was Black Rock Shooter. Her stomach was free from the staff, but was mortally bleeding, yet it seems to her it was nothing.
"Obviously," BRS said with monotone. She closed her eyes. And when she opened them, her left eye shot blue flames.
Black Rock Shooter held out her left arm, blue energy and metal parts surrounding it. Then, her cannon appeared. She slapped with her cannon heavily on the leader's back, nearly enough to crack a human's spine. Then, she used her cannon to lift the alien in the air, and he landed on his back on the tip of her cannon as she held her cannon in the air. BRS fired, and then the Gordanian leader landed on the ground painfully.
Infuriated, Trogaar slammed his fist into the ground, sending BRS skidding across the floor, but she pounded her cannon to the ground, stopping her and leaving a gash on the floor. Trogaar punched BRS away, but as she was flying to the wall, she fired her cannon, hitting the alien leader. Black Rock Shooter landed on the wall and jumped off, and she turned her cannon into a huge sword. She sent a vertical blow to the Gordanian leader. He blocked, but it wasn't enough. She kicked him in the gut, and she used a horizontal blow, sending him crashing into the wall. BRS jumped over him, but he grabbed her ankle and slammed her into the ground. She got up, and dodged quickly from the blow Trogaar gave. She fired her cannon at him, and then she bashed her lance on his head as she jumped towards him, stunning him. Trogaar staggered back. The rest of the teens stared in awe. Black Rock Shooter landed smoothly and stood over him, victorious.
Then, the flames on Black Rock Shooter's left eye died down, and her cannon lance disappeared.
"Dude, that was amazing!" Beast Boy told her. BRS turned and gave a weak smile. Trogaar got up and was about to attack, until a flash of blue hit him on the back and he staggered, finally defeated. It was Cyborg, whose hand turned into a cannon.
"Alright, I'm only gonna say this once," he started, "Boo-yah," he finished smiling. BRS smiled back.
"Rock…that was amazing," Robin complimented.
BRS shrugged. "It's just what I do best."
"But, how did you… you know, came back alive?" he asked her.
BRS paused. "Well, like I said: I'm not that easy to kill."
"That's not the answer I wanted."
"You have your secrets, I have mine." Robin scowled slightly, but said nothing. Then he smiled and placed a hand on her shoulder. Black Rock Shooter tensed. She never had anybody else embrace her before. Then she smiled back.
After getting out of the ship, everyone was on the island off the coast of Jump City.
"That's quite a view," Raven complimented as everyone watched the sun rise.
"Someone ought to build a house out here," Cyborg replied.
Beast Boy laughed, "Yeah if you like sunshine and the beach!" He then elbowed Raven.
Raven gave a small laugh, "You know you're kind of funny," she told him.
Beast Boy gasped as his eyes dazzled. "You think I'm funny? Ooh, dude, I know some jokes!" Raven suddenly shuddered. BRS gave a small chuckle. "Okay, Beast Boy, I think you're scaring her." Beast Boy gave a toothy grin.
"Please, I look nice?" everyone heard the alien girl say. They turned and saw her. She was wearing only a purple top showing her midriff, a purple miniskirt, purple boots that reached to her thighs, and silver armor gloves. The facemask was gone.
Robin walked up and said, "I…still don't know your name."
"In your language it would be Star…Fire."
"Welcome to Earth, Starfire," Robin greeted.
"I thank you all for your bravery and help, and I wish to ask permission to remain here where the people are most strange but also most…kind," Starfire replied, smiling. She and Robin blushed.
"You don't need our permission," Raven told her.
"But if you want our friendship, you got it," Robin said.
"I guess we all could use some new friends," Cyborg said.
"Besides I think we made a pretty good team!" commented Beast Boy.
Robin took something out. "I thought we might want to keep in touch so Cyborg and I designed these!" Robin said as he held out four round devices. Each took one, except for Robin and Cyborg.
"Made them from my own circuits," Cyborg said proudly.
"So if there's trouble, you know who to call," Robin told everyone. BRS blushed.
"You know, from where I came from, there were no friends. It was just each person for themselves," she stated as she continued looking at the sunset.
"Well, you have friends now," Robin replied, smiling.
"And you're right: we do make a good team." BRS responded.
"Maybe we should come up with a team name?" Beast Boy suggested. Robin looked at him.
"Well, what do you have in mind?" Rock asked.
"Uh, um…" Beast Boy started, "You noticed we're all teens, right?" Everyone nodded.
"Hmm, Teen Heroes won't work," BRS said.
"Well, how about the Teen Titans?" Beast Boy beamed. Everyone nodded in agreement.
"Very well, Teen Titans it is," Robin smiled.
"Alright! Who wants some pizza?" Cyborg asked enthusiastically. Everyone agreed, even Raven. Black Rock Shooter felt a warm spot in her heart for the first time.
So this is what happiness was.
Like I said earlier, I do not own Black Rock Shooter or Teen Titans, only this fic. Also, please, please, please review.
