Teen titans is owned by DC and what not. I own it not though I wish I did, it's such a good show with such rich and lovable characters. -
Author's Note:
Yes, I know... only Author's who lack self confidence actually have an Author's Note. Well this sort of a prologue as well.
This fiction is based upon an alternate ending to the Apprentice series that I contemplated. What if Robin never got out of Slade's influence? well, for the sake of a storyline, I fused aspects from further into the series as well as information I have gathered from the comic book series.
If you need to look up information that might confuse you ((which I doubt, because my main focus is the cartoon, anything from comics is pretty much just a bone to throw at the comic fans)) go to:
Great site, i tell ya.
Well Disillusioned is inspired not only from that but also from a french song. Here I have the complete lyrics, french and english. At the beginning of each chapter there will be a quote from the song reflecting or applying an undertone for the following chapter.
And finally, I will address my format. the first part of the chapter is in first person, reflecting the mental state of that character that will be the focus for the chapter. Then after the first person arc, there will be a third person narrative arc, addressing the event of the chapter itself.
The first part is insight.
This is my most involved piece of work, so please, R&R, flames are welcomed. - Constructive Criticism preferred.
The Song:
Kate Ryan DesenchantŽe - French and English Lyrics
Nager dans les eaux troubles Des lendemains Attendre ici la fin Flotter dans lair trop lourd Du presque rien A qui tendre la main
Si je dois tomber de haut Que ma chute soit lente Je nai trouv de repos Que dans lindiffrence Pourtant, je voudrais retrouver linnocence Mais rien na de sens, et rien ne va
Tout est chaos A ct Tous mes idaux : des mots abims.
Je cherche une me, qui Pourra maider Je suis Dune gneration dsenchante, dsenchante
Qui pourrait mempcher De tout entendre Quand la raison seffondre A quel sein se vouer Qui peut prtendre Nous bercer dans son ventre
Si la mort est un mystre La vie na rien de tendre Si le ciel a un enfer Le ciel peut bien mattendre Dis moi,
Dans ces vents contraires comment sy prendre Plus rien na de sens, plus rien ne va.
To swim in troubled waters for days, To wait here for the end. To float in air, too heavy from almost nothing. To whom to reach out a hand?
If I must fall from high, May my fall be gentle. I found rest only in indifference. Still, I would like to find innocence again, But nothing makes sense and nothing goes right.
All is Chaos, On all sides, All my ideals; the words overwhelmed, I look for a soul who is able to help me. I am of a disenchanted generation. Disenchanted.
Who could prevent me from understanding all? When reason collapses, To what womb should we turn to? Who can pretend, To rock us in her womb.
If death is a mystery, Life offers nothing. If the sky has a hell, The heaven can well wait for me. Tell me, In these adverse winds how do you save yourself ? Nothing else makes sense, nothing else goes right.
