A/N: Oh my good Gaia, people are reading! Anyway, for the first... ten chapters or so I'll be (trying) to update daily. After that I'll slow it down to a weekly update to give people time to read and leave reviews if they want. My creative muse is standing behind me with a golf club, pummeling me to work on this fic, so that's the whole daily update reason. Anyway, on to the antics of Lucas and the Teen Titans!

Chapter 4: A Sudden Change

Following my quiet answer, each Titan had a different reaction; Robin whipped out his staff and assumed a battle-stance, clear hatred written on his face. Cyborg stiffened and looked at me analytically, but otherwise had no outward reaction. Beast Boy's eyes widened and he moved back a step, fear plastered on his green face. Starfire hovered there, her head cocked to the side, confusion evident in her posture. Raven had the smallest reaction; she did absolutely nothing except continue looking at me with an emotionless gaze.

Robin's obviously had me the most worried, but Beast Boy's hit me the hardest. His was the expression EVERYONE had when they found out about my connection to the deadly half-plant Eco-terrorist supervillain. But seeing it from one of my heroes...made something snap inside of me.

"I AM NOT A MONSTER!"

My fear was totally gone, replaced by hurt and rage. The Titans blinked at me after my outburst. Apparently, they hadn't expected the kid who was quiet and stuttering a second ago to shout loud enough to crack the concrete walls Raven had raised.

Robin reacted before anyone else, but in a way no-one else did. He jumped forward, swinging his staff trying to brain me. The others, except Raven, moved back a step from the explosion of sound, while Raven's eyes widened to the size small soup bowls.

I reacted to Robin by lifting my arm and catching his bo-staff. He looked surprised by the fact I both moved fast enough to not only block his attack, but also to get a good hold on his weapon, and that I wasn't howling in pain, clutching my arm which was without a doubt supposed to be broken.

"IT'S BECAUSE OF PEOPLE LIKE YOU THAT VILLIANS ARE MADE!" As I shouted, vines shot out of my flesh and crawled quickly down Robin's staff, wrapping around his arms and constricting. Fear shot across Robin's face for the first time since I'd seen him.

I lifted the staff, and Robin's bound form with it, until he was dangling in front of me, his feet a couple of feet of the ground.

"YOU AND YOUR BIGOTED BELIEF THAT ANYONE WHO IS LIKE SOMEONE ELSE IS THAT PERSON CREATES SELF-FULFILLING PROPHECIES AND NEW VILLAINS ARE MADE ALL THE TIME, YOU NARROW-MINDED, ARROGANT ASS-HOLE!" I clenched my hand slowly, causing the vines to begin constricting Robin more and more, slowly crushing his entire body. He cried out in pain, and the other Titans jumped into action. Beast Boy changed into a rhino and ran at me, but Honeysuckle quickly sprouted from the ground and wrapped around his entire form, caking itself on thick enough to hold the shapechanger. Cyborg changed his arm into the cannon and aimed it at me, but since he was relatively close, the vines that were wrapped around Robin shot out and latched onto his arm, re-directing the shot to the side so it missed me entirely. Starfire charged up two starbolts and tried to blast me, but a rosebush that was nearby expanded exponentially in a few quick seconds and took the hits. Raven, oddly, just stood there with a strange look on her face, like she was torn between helping her friends and breaking down crying, which seemed odd for the emotionless magus.

I growled lowly, "IS THAT THE BEST YOU'VE GOT? WHY DON'T YOU COME AT ME LIKE YOU WOULD SLADE? OR MY SISTER? HUH? AM I NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU?!"

"AZARATH MITRION ZINTHOS!" Raven suddenly shouted. I braced for a hit, but instead her dark energy wrapped around her team-mates and pulled them away from me. When she turned back to me, I saw compassion in her eyes.

"I'm sorry."

I jerked my head back in surprise. "What?"

Raven lowered her hands, and her eyes slightly, and said, "I'm sorry that people look at you like you're your sister. I know what that's like...to be looked at like you're evil, when you're not."

Robin groaned as he stood up. "Raven, get him! He's..." he grunted in pain and doubled over, clutching his head. "Ugh...he's related...to...a psychopath!" Rage flashed through Raven's eyes as she heard this.

Her voice though, was calm as she responded, "And would you attack Starfire because Blackfire tried to kill us twice?" Robin looked confused and shook his head violently. "Would you attack me because of who my father is?" Robin seemed to slightly connect the dots, though he clutched his head more and nearly screamed in pain.

"No...but...he's...different..." Robin tried to make a point through his groaning, but I stopped that shit real quick. I stepped forward and brought my knee up to his face, which was facing down from his leaning over in pain. I put enough force into it to knock him out for about an hour...and to break his nose.

"T-t-that w-was for b-b-b-breaking m-my n-n-nose. Y-y-y-y-you j-jerk." As Robin fell onto his back, out cold. Raven looked at me in mild surprise.

"Was that needed?"

I shrugged timidly. "P-p-probably not, b-b-but i-it f-f-felt g-g-good." Back to my quiet self... damn it. Raven just smirked a little and went over to the others.

"If I let you go, will you attack..." She looked at me. "Sorry, but we never asked your name."

I shuffled my feet and looked down, wringing my hands. "L-l-lucas..."

Cyborg looked blank for a few seconds, then shook his head. "Ugh... what happened?"

Raven frowned. "You attacked Lucas when he defended himself from Robin."

Beast Boy looked like he still wanted to attack me, but was restraining himself. Starfire looked utterly confused. Cyborg looked like he was fine, just analyzing what had happened.

"I'm picking up a lot of strange pheromones and hormones around here."

"T-t-t-that w-w-would be m-me."

The Titans who were conscious looked at me in confusion.

"I-i'm h-h-h-h-half p-p-p-plant so I p-p-put o-out t-t-those ch-ch-chemicals as a n-n-n-natural d-d-defense..."

"So when you're scared, people attack you, and when you're angry..." Cyborg trailed off.

I nodded slowly. "E-e-everyone b-b-becomes a-a-a-aggressive."

"Then why wasn't Rae affected?" Cyborg queried.

"Because I have near complete control of my emotions because of powers."

"A-a-a-and R-robin w-w-was m-most e-e-effected b-because he's f-f-fought I-ivy before."

"So he is more likely to be influenced by your small scents?" Starfire asked. I squeaked and nodded.

"B-b-b-beast B-b-boy too." this caught everyone off guard.

"What?! Why would I be more controlled?!"

"Because of your nose Beast boy. Your animalistic traits cause your sense of smell to be more focused, therefore, the scents will be more prevailant to you," Raven explained.

Beast Boy just cocked his head and shrugged.

Starfire suddenly cried out. Everyone looked at her. "We must give some form of apology to Lucas for our unprovoked attack!"

Raven just sighed and rubbed her temples, muttering something that sounded like "here we go."

Cyborg, Beast Boy, and Starfire fell int a group huddle, quietly discussing what could be done to apologize to me. I shuffled over to Raven.

"D-does th-th-this kind o-of thin h-h-happen o-o-often?"

She grimaced slightly. "No, but this response to them being wrong happens too much for me."

I nodded in understanding and shuffled away slightly. The others had reached a consensus.

"Dude, how would you like to see the Tower?" Beast Boy asked.

My eyes widened and my mouth dropped open. "I-I-I'd h-h-h-have to a-a-a-ask m-my m-m-m-mom..."

Starfire started jumping for joy. "Then let us go!"

After quickly returning the landscape to normal, we started on our way to my house, Robin slung over Cyborgs' shoulder.

I had no idea what was in store for me.
