Okay guys, this is my first fic, so please go easy on me! *Ducks under the
desk* Reviews are welcome, and any flames will be used to roast my
marshmallows which are very cold and do not taste good unless warmed.
*Looks at marshmallow and eye twitches* That's enough of that. I just wanna
get on with the story before I lose ya! Please R/R!
Setting: It was a cold, dreary day at the HQ of the Teen Titans. The wind was blowing mercilessly, bending the trees to the ground, and the rain was icy cold. About 11:00 in the morning.
A little green shapeshifter stood his ground as he looked out one of the many windows in the tower. He hadn't seen it rain this much in a long time, and he longed to go out and kick some bad-guy butt before the day was over. "This day stinks. I wish it would stop raining." He said with remorse and sadness, no emotion in his voice. "I would make it stop, but my powers are very weak right now." Raven said as she sat on the couch, watching Robin and Cyborg playing a video game.
He sighed. Just ONCE would he like things to go HIS way. "Look BB, you can't make the rain stop, so just stop staring out the window and come play a video game with us." Robin said as he continued to stare at the screen blankly. 'There he goes again...into his own little world.' Raven thought as she rolled her eyes behind their backs. Then Starfire came running in.
"Hello friends! It sure is a nice day outside isn't it?" She had a huge smile on her face which told the others she was completely oblivious to the fact it was raining. Of course, Beast Boy had to point it out to her bluntly. "It's raining Star. How can it be nice?" He turned from the window to the orange Tamaranian who looked at him questioningly. Robin then butted in. "Hey, at least we get to relax for a while. We rarely get to do that." He stopped playing and looked right at Starfire, who went from confused to happy in a matter of...about 3 seconds.
"Robin is right Beast Boy. We get a chance to rest and build up our strength." She stated as he went from a human to a huge cat, curling up under the window. They all sighed. The rain was kind of depressing, and seeing Beast Boy so down about it wasn't helping them at all either. The thunder rolled and lightning flashed, making the power go out.
"Ahhhh! I have gone blind! Someone help me!" a frightened Starfire cried out. The only thing you could hear now was rustling of papers and the movement of feet, and of course the whimpering of Starfire. "Now everyone stay calm...the power just went out is all...now where is my flashlight?" Robin said assuredly, scurrying around to find the flashlight that was once on his belt.
"I found it!" Cyborg said as a bright yellow light flooded the room, making everyone look around. Beast Boy, was under a table, shaking like mad, Starfire was curled up in a ball against the wall, Raven was still sitting where she was previously, not caring about what was going on really, Robin was standing, checking around the room, and Cyborg was busy trying to get the video game to work. "Everyone okay?" Robin asked, flashing the light at every person in the room. "I'm okay." Was heard all around the room, and Robin nodded. "Now that everyone is here and accounted for, let's go and turn on the generator to get some light going on around here. Raven stood up and went over to Beast Boy, who was now back to human, and she lended a hand(A/N: I know this little part is OOC, but bear with me! ^^). "Come on Beast Boy." She tried to say with a hint of emotion. He looked up with fear in his eyes, then slowly crawled out from under the table.
He grabbed her hand to get up, and could feel something inside of him he never felt before. She pulled him up off of the floor and let go, leaving a stunned Beast Boy. He looked down at his green hand, a tingling sensation running throughout his body. He just couldn't understand it. Raven was just as confused about why she helped him...why she had any passion for him. She looked away to the other side of the room at the window he once was at, the lightning relentlessly coming down to earth.
Robin walked around the back of the couch and noticed Starfire mumbling to herself as her eyes were sealed shut with fear. He smirked as he walked over to her and tapped her on the shoulder, making him and her jump. "Is...Is it over?" She asked, her voice still shaky and small. He smiled again. "Yes. It's all over, and the power...well, we need to go and turn on the generator." He tried to reassure her with the best he had, and it seemed to be worked pretty well. She smiled and she sat up, holding her hand out to get a pull-up. He, of course, willingly put out his own. A rush of emotions ran through his body as he gripped onto her hand and pulled her up. Little did he know that she felt the same rush. They both quickly let go and smiled, turning to Cyborg.
"Let's go and find the generator to get these lights back on." Cyborg said as he made his way up the stairs to the top of the tower. They all willingly followed him, looking behind them every so often. "The dark is rather creepy." Starfire whispered lowly as they made their way up another flight of stairs. Raven sighed as she walked beside her alien friend, no phased at all by the pitch dark that seemed to have no end. "It's just the dark. Nothing changes when the lights go out." Raven bluntly pointed out to Starfire, who smiled slightly at her friends 'comforting' words.
Cyborgs' metal feet made a loud echoing sound as they continued their walk through the many hallways of the HQ. "Do you think we'll ever find it?" Beast Boy asked, breaking the uneasy feeling they all had inside of them now. "Of course we'll find it BB. It's on the top of the tower." Cyborg said as Beast Boy ran ahead of him and turned into a wolf, sniffing the ground and checking around every corner. They all fell over(anime style of course). "What are you doing BB!?" Robin screeched as he then turned into a Basset Hound and started sniffing peoples shoes. Beast Boy changed back to normal(A/N: Even though when he's human he's not exactly what you would call normal eh?), and looked at them quizzically. ".....What!?" They all rolled their eyes. "Let's keep going okay?" Cyborg said as they continued making their way to the top.
::Later on::
"We....finally...made....it..." Robin said quite out of breath from running the rest of the way up, impatient to turn the lights back on. The rest eventually caught up, and they headed up one more flight of stairs before they opened a ceiling door to the top of the building. Cyborg was the first up. The sky was an endless black void, lightning streaking it every once in a while, the thunder shaking the ground beneath them. The rain felt like ice pieces as it hit whatever bare skin they had showing at the time. Starfire shivered. "It is so cold." She said, rubbing her arms as the wind blew her hair behind her ears and it flew like a kite behind her. Raven shivered slightly, the wind blowing her hood off.
"We need to hurry and turn it on!" Robin yelled over the roar of the thunder that had just rolled by. They all nodded in agreement as Cyborg went over to the generator with Beast Boy, looking for the infamous switch. Lightning cracked behind them, making them all jump and look out to the horizon. "I sense evil..." Raven said as her eyes narrowed at the storm raging before her(A/N: I don't know if she can sense things or not, but she can in this story...at least this part.). Just then, it went all quiet.
Beast Boy looked even further up, right above his head. The rain, wind, thunder, and lightning had all stopped. "......Strange." Robin observed to his teammates as the ground then started to shake violently. "EARTHQUAKE!" Cyborg yelled as he started dancing around, trying to keep his balance. Just then, over on the other side of town, a huge black bulge appeared. It was taller than all of the buildings. As the sky was once again lit up by the lightning, the all gasped. A huge monster stood before them, it's red slitted eyes piercing into the dark.
"We have a big problem on our hands...." Robin said backing up slightly, his friends following him.
To be continued....
How was it? Please Review and tell me what you think! Remember, flames will be used to roast marshmallows! *Holds up stick with ten marshmallows on it* ^^ I hope this was okay...it didn't sound very good to me, but I guess things never look good to the beholder, especially when you're a perfectionist like me! *Ahem* Sorry. Comments, and suggestions are greatly welcomed!
