The Beginning of the Start:
I do not own TT, but I did come up with Spencer – 17 yrs and the New Titan's roster of heroes including: Nightfire – 17yrs (Nightwing and Starfire named combined, yay I is clever), Levitate – 16yrs, Telly – 16yrs, and Vicky Stone (Cyborg and Sarah Simms [Cyborg's love interest in the comic] daughter – 13 yrs). If there are any sort of heroes in relation to other people's stories and such it is not on purpose it is all coincidental. I apologize ahead of time if they have any resemblance of: power, name, relations, personalities, etc. It is all coincidental and accidental if that was the case, and if it is the case, don't go yelling that I took your characters, because I didn't. Thanks and enjoy.
Chapter 1: A Hero Goes to School
"Spencer! You get out of your room this instant!" Spencer rolled his eyes as he lay on his bed, his hands behind his head. He sat himself up and ran his hand through his dark purple hair. Sometimes his mom could get really demanding!
"Yeah OK Mom! I'll be right there!" he shouted back, getting off the bed and pressing the button by his door, sliding it open with a metallic whoosh sound.
He walked down the hallway of his parent's small house toward the newly refurbished kitchen. Due to his Mom's constant emotions causing her to break things, they had to repair the house every so often, but it only really happened when Spencer's dad does something. Just last month his dad painted his usually bright green skin into a much darker greenish-grey and put grey contacts in his eyes. He then proceeded to hide until Spencer's mom returned home with the groceries, jumping out from hiding and yelling about returning from the grave. He remembered how his mom freaked out, her powers exploding all the light bulbs in the house and throwing the stove at him dad. Spencer chuckled at the memory, it took forever to clean that kitchen.
Spencer walked into the kitchen and saw his parents preparing for the day. He looked at the odd couple he called his parents. His mom was standing over the stove cooking a tofu meal for his dad, who was drinking Soy milk as he read the morning news. When you first meet the two, you would never expect them to be in love, much less married. His mother was calm, collected, and dark. Her bluish-purple hair was short and well-kept, staying in stark contrast of her pale skin and with violet eyes always focused and on watch. What Spencer liked most about his mom though, was that she always smelled of lavender. It always made him feel calm and at ease. She was wearing black skinny jeans with a blue top. Once she finished the tofu meal, she set it on the table for Spencer's dad and took a sip of her herbal tea.
Spencer's dad nodded in appreciation and wolfed down his breakfast. Unlike his mom, Spencer's dad was much more cheery, even though his lack of 'normalcy' would probably depress any other man. Though his father wasn't truly a "man." His father had green skin and point ears, which he always claimed to Spencer was how he got his mother, to which she rolls her eyes at, plus the fact that he could turn himself into any animal he pleased, made him even less human. His black hair was always choppy and messy, and he always had a smile on his face, with a look of cheeriness reflected in the sparkling green eyes that Spencer shared with him. He was wearing a white, summer beach shirt made for formal pictures and kakis. He was probably the happiest person anyone ever met. Most people would say that the couple was complete opposites of each other, but Spencer realized that was what made them whole.
Spencer walked up to his mom and gave her a small kiss on the cheek, teasing her for yelling at him to get up earlier. He walked up to the fridge and grabbed some Pop-Tarts. He had picked up his mother's habit of light eating and his father's habit of not eating animals, though he would occasionally have food made from real animals, he probably would never eat any actual meat, though he despised tofu, which put him on a diet of strictly fruits, veggies, and wheat. Though he didn't mind, he was used to it.
"So Spencer… first day of school today? Very exciting." His dad said, throwing the morning paper away. Spencer smiled; he knew his father would never actually read the paper. Spencer just nodded his head and spoke with slight nervousness in his voice.
"Yeah, it seems that way. Luckily Nightfire would be there as well." He said. His mother didn't look up from her cup as she spoke.
"Actually, Robin and Starfire thought it best that she stayed homeschooled." She said. Spencer's jaw went slack with disbelief.
"Are you serious?" he said. "I was planning on her being there. Especially since this is the first day of school since… ever, for the both of us." His mom just nodded as she took another sip of her tea.
"Well remember, Nightfire lives in Gotham. And that's not the…" she racked her brain for the right word. "…nicest neighborhood around, plus don't worry, I'm sure you'll make some new friends." She said. Spencer's dad agreed readily, speaking up in his cheery voice.
"Yeah, and remember." He pointed to himself with both his thumbs and wiggled his eyebrows. "You got my good looks." He laughed again until Spencer's mom promptly smacked him in the back of the head, her eyebrow twitching.
"Garfield Mark Logan! He's going there for school not chicks!" she yelled at her husband, who put his hands up in mock surrender, a large, guilty grin on his face and a sweatdrop forming as he quietly mumbled an apology. Spencer thinly smiled at the whole ordeal; sometimes his parents were too much.
Spencer glanced up at the clock and almost chocked on his Pop-Tart, already it was 7:50. He was going to be late!
Quickly Spencer swallowed the remainder of his Pop-Tart and rushed out the door, waving to his parent's good-bye. He ran through the door and jumped, disappearing into a dark spot on the porch. Spencer smiled to himself as he traveled through the Shadow World, sometimes there were benefits of being a quarter demon. Spencer Logan was the son of the infamous Beast Boy and Raven. With both of their powers combined, he was born as a sort of health medium between their two starkly contrasting powers. He had the speed, strength, dexterity, and reflexes of the world's most dominant animals thanks to his father, though he couldn't change into any of them and he didn't have green skin. He kept his mother's hair, only darker due to his dad, and his father's eyes. His dominant power though, wasn't the fact that he had animal-like reflexes, it was the fact that he could manipulate the shadows. Instead of surrounding objects in dark energy, Spencer was able to manipulate the dark energy in the form of shadows. Because of his ability to manipulate shadows, he was able to transport through any shadow he touched and teleport anywhere there was a shadow; he was also able to create dark energy balls, or "Shadow Balls" as he called them, and fire them at objects. Immediately he appeared behind the school, with five minutes to spare.
Spencer smiled to himself and walked into the office door of the building, he was quickly received by a small, elderly lady at the front desk, typing away some sort of document. Spencer approached the desk and stood awkwardly, shifting the weight of his feet between each other. He coughed.
"Excuse me ma'am? I'm new here. Can you help me?" he was quickly interrupted by a stern whipping sound as the woman's arm pointed to Spencer's left, toward a door marked 'Principal Bowne' Spencer took a deep intake of breath and walked through the door.
