Chapter two

The titans had all arrived at the tower and sat around the sofa waiting to find out Jericho's story. Due to the fact not all the titans understood sign language they handed Jericho some paper and a pen. Their plan was to ask questions as he wrote down the answers. Rose started off by asking her newly discovered brother the first question.

Rose: So why did you never mention our father to the other titans before?

Jericho began to write.

"Part of me wanted to but I was afraid of how they would react."

Beast boy: Come on dude you're our friend plus you helped bet the brotherhood of evil. Besides you and Rose aren't the only ones with an evil dad and—ouch!

Beast boy was interrupted by a punch in the arm from Raven who gave him an angry look.

Beast boy: Okay I get it I'll shut up.

Robin: Jericho your our friend but I would appreciate it if you told us more, I have the feeling your holding back.

Jericho gulped not knowing where to begin, soon enough he began to write.

"My mother died shortly after divorcing my father, after that I tried living on the streets to avoid him, but he managed to track me down very quickly. He said he wanted me to use my powers for him and become his apprentice. He forced me to train all day every day. It seemed like no matter how hard I tried I could not get it perfect. I knew I had to get away from him so I came up with a plan. I ran away one night. Naturally he wasn't far behind me. I made look like I was trapped at the edge of a cliff over the ocean. Then I jumped off the cliff and swam to a pipe line which leads me to a creek. I then ran away to the mountains. Also my name wasn't always Jericho. Originally my name was Joseph but I changed it to make sure he wouldn't figure out I was still alive."

The other titans starred at him looking stunned.

Robin: So you faked your own death, changed your name, and went to live as far away as you could so Slade wouldn't find you.

Jericho began to write age.

"I know you must think I'm a coward for going into hiding like that"

Raven: No Jericho we don't.

Starfire: We are not thinking such thoughts at all.

Robin: Trust us we know what Slade is capable of and that he never gives up, You did the right thing.

Cyborg: Plus it took guts to do what you did.

Beast boy: Yeah dude!

Rose: There right Jericho, or should I just start calling you Bro?

Jericho wrote to call him whatever she wanted. He then smiled looking at all his friends. As the day went on the brother and sister spent more time together. Robin even suggested that they spend a few more days in Jump city so they could get to know each other better. The two happily agreed. When it began to get late Rose went on to one of the spare rooms the tower had to change out of her red and black ninja like dress, and get ready for bed. Jericho went on to his own spare room which was right across from Raven's room. He could hear her chanting as she meditated. Her voice was like a lullaby that helped him drift off to sleep.

Early the next morning the titans were awoken by the sound of an alarm. It turned out Mumbo Jumbo was committing crime early this morning. With the help of Jericho and Rose it took no time at all to stop and catch the villain. Little did they all know they were being watched from an underground base.

At that same time in the base, a masked man's fist hits the side of his chair with great force. The masked man spoke to himself. "So the titans have meet Rose, and it turns out that Joseph has been alive all along. This day is just full of surprises." He stared at the monitor that showed Jericho's face thought to himself." This time you're not getting away my boy."

For the next few days the brother and sister spent almost every moment together. They were oblivious to the fact every move they made was monitored. One day Rose went to grab her and Jericho something to eat. Jericho glanced over to see Raven in a book store window. He thought this would be the perfect time to thank her for everything she and the others were doing for him and Rose. After meeting up with Raven in the book store, Raven went to pay for the books she had her heart set on only she ended up tripping on a rug. As she fell backwards Jericho made an attempt to catch her. They both landed on the floor. Raven and Jericho blushed at each other once they realized one of his hands had unintentionally ended up in-between her legs. One of his fingers had brushed up against her lower and more sensitive female area. The other hand was wrapped around her and ended up cupping the bottom of one of her breasts. Stunned they were still for a moment then quickly got to their feet. Jericho ended up apologizing about five times. Raven understood it was an accident so she did not blame him.

When the week was up and the brother and sister got ready to return to Jericho's mountain top home. Yet another alarm went off. The two rushed to the others to see if they needed any help stopping another villain. It turned out it wasn't the city that was in trouble. Titans tower itself was under attack from the outside.

Cyborg was trying his best to put up all the towers defenses; however the main computer began to give him trouble.

Cyborg: Come on not now!

Robin: Cyborg what's going on?

Cyborg: The defense system is crashing looks like we're going to have to fight off whatever is attacking the tower.

Robin: In that case, Teen Titans Go!
