You Only Live Once
Chapter 1: An Innocent Girl
Part 1 of ?
A/N: Hello followers, anons, creepy anons. I'd like to introduce my newest fanfiction called... wait for it... oh fuck it, you can see the title on the top can't you? This story is a crossover between Avatar and Teen Titans, mostly because I love both, if you don't like one of the two then don't read, its not like I'm forcing you to. Now some of you maybe saying, "Autumn, don't you have enough stories already?", well kids, I have this weird thing where I get some great ideas all at once and struggle to focus on them, so, naturally, I'm trying to use that energy and get it out of my system before I flip my shit. Don't worry, this is a multiple chapter and will probably be really long and fun to write with plenty of fight scenes and other characters than Robin to test with, that's right everyone, were ignoring the forth wall, and the seat belt sign as I unlatch my seat belt and jump into testing myself. Be prepared!
!Characters, Elements and Ages are as follows!
Starfire - Kori Anders 15 Avatar
Beast Boy- Garfield Logan 14 Earth
Cyborg - Vince Stone 17 Earth
Robin - Richard Grayson 11 Air (Dick, yeah, I made him really young, sue me)
Raven - Rachel Roth 15 Water (Rae)
Blackfire - Sasha Anders 16 Fire (I don't know if she has a normal name or not in the show/comics)
Slade - General Slade Wilson 37 None Bender
Wintergreen - General Will Wintergreen 63 Water
Batman - Elder Bruce Wayne 36 Air? (I'll explain later)
Kori blinked in confusion as she awoke to the sound of a beautiful bird song, she smiled as she hoped out of her bed and hummed as she opened a window in her room to let the light and fresh air in.
"FUCK!" Her sister Sasha yelled as she pulled the blankets over her head on the bottom bunk. "Kori, I am going to repeat a point I make to you every morning, WERE NOT ALL MORNING PEOPLE, SHUT THE DAMN WINDOW!"
Kori jumped as she slammed the window closed in shock, she knew that her sister was not a morning person, but she should be more happy. It was, after all, Kori's last day in the city of Tamaran. Yes, today was the day that Kori would be given a tribal name by the cities leader and start her journey as the avatar. For the last ten years, the world has had constant battles over differences, land, war, and even family matters. So now, she would have to learn the other elements of the world and gather a party to aid her in her quest to protect the world from danger. It seemed stupid, but it was important for the world, especially since... unexplainable incidents have been occurring at an amazing rate.
Kori smiled as she practically flew down the stairs, she loved her home, it was a city where benders of all sorts lived. She was, of course, already planing on bring her three close friends Vince, Garfield and Rachel for her journey, and planed on bringing more people if she were to meet them. She and Rachel had already mapped out there first destination for training, Kori already knew fire bending, so they'd have to go to find Air bending training first.
Legends within the city told of a man who was the greatest Air bender in the world, Bruce Wayne, or the Bat as many called him. He was told to be not only powerful but courageous, wise and handsome, the best bender of winds in all of the world thus far. However, a rumor that had not been confirmed said that he had been killed in front of his adoptive son who had already lost his own parents in front of him was worrying. No one outside of Gotham knew if it was true or not, but ether way, it was worrying.
Kori shrugged the thoughts off as she practically pranced to the cities temple that would give her a special name or title that was a tradition in her family if they ether were dubbed the Avatar or joined the army. It was not only a huge honor, but it was a massive responsibility for anyone, especially for such an innocent girl who had never even seen a man hit a woman, but she was far from dumb. No, Kori Anders was a very intelligent young woman who was known for her made up Fire bending move that allowed her to fly using the heat in the air as a sort of flying carpet.
"Hey, Kori!" Garfield yelled as he glomped the girl. "I'm so excited for tonight!"
It was not only a tradition in Kori's family for a title to be given to children who became soldiers, so that meant that her companions would also get titles. Being a companion to the avatar was just about as important as being the actual avatar, the companion was linked to the avatar and must protect them from death with there own lives if necessary, making it the same level as being a soldier to earn them a title. Sasha had stayed behind due to her not wanting to go along on some, as she worded it, 'Some shitty adventure game.'
"Hello, Garfield. Are you all ready to leave for the best adventure of our lives?" Kori asked as she held her bags ready.
Garfield was not your typical Earth bender, he was green. When he was younger and living in a totally different continent he went into the woods and was bit by a green flying monkey. His parents just barely saved his life, but not without consequences, now he was not only green (He wasn't before or anything) but he also gained the ability to Earth bend and speak to animals. He immediately turned vegan afterwards and therefore refused to eat meat of any kind. It was hard to believe that he and Vince were best friends.
"Just about, Kori." Vince answered this time as he carried most of the groups bags.
Vince was half steel half human after a freak accident occurred, killing his parents in the blast as they tried to use an illegal substance in an experiment that mostly hit Vince, making him only half human. Thankfully, a local metal/earth bender agreed to fix his body so that he could be normal again, however, the transfusion used magic and caused him to gain Earth bending, due to the fact that he was a none bender before.
"Hey, shouldn't you get Silkie or whatever?" Rachel imputed.
Now Rachel was a sob story in a way, she wasn't all depressing from the beginning... but... being the 'dear daughter' of a war lord isn't exactly a walk in the park. Thankfully, the city was able to put all of that aside and except her, though, her mother died a few years ago from skin cancer. Rachel was a wonderful friend though, she was able to be serious and nice at the same time when needed, an element that was seriously needed that could not be bended. She was also a water bender, making her ideal for the group since they needed a healer anyways.
"Oh yes!" Kori suddenly shouted as she threw her bag on the ground, already running towards where her beautiful dark pink and grey dragon Silkie was sleeping. The dragon was actually massive though, so he leaned on an abandoned building as his nesting grounds. "Garfield, is Silkie ready to go as well?" Kori asked the boy.
Garfield petted the dragon as it let out tiny, quiet growls as its way of communicating. "Yep, hes ready!" The green boy confirmed happily.
"Glorious!" Kori yelled out, English was not her first language, making it hard to understand her sometimes, though, her grasp on English was better then it was when she first learned it when she was four years old.
With that, the group quickly ran to the temple as they followed the quickly growing crowd of citizens as they went to the ceremony.
A/N: So I set the scene for are hero's adventure, please review any suggestions on different characters knowing certain element or just good ideas on where I should go with this story. And for once, robin isn't the main character (GASP). But yeah, please R&R!
