Chapter 4: Origins Exposed

Turmoil ran through the ocean as two males fought against one another. There were visible cuts on both fighters.

Awhile later….

Water rose up as a young boy wandered onto the sand.

"Aqualad, Where do you think you are going?" Aquaman tried to catch up to the boy.

"I'm tired of that prophecy. You tried to kill me over something regarding your son." Aqualad snapped back.

"You know it wasn't like that at all!" Aquaman defended himself in case Aqualad would fight back.

Aqualad swung his arm in front to show a cut as big as his forearm to Aquaman.

"Well, what do you call this?"

"It happened because you put your arms out into my attack to protect-" Aquaman was cut off.

"Attack against me?! Your own sidekick?" Aqualad started to walk away.

"But… Aqualad….. GARTH… Wait!" Aquaman was too late though. The boy had already ran ahead and was out of sight.

Later in the day….

Garth ran up the sand, digging his calf high boots into the yellow sand, he only stopped to pick up a random pair of shorts. There was no way he would run around land in his current state.

Slipping on the grey cargo shorts, he looked around nervously and walked into the center of the city. He didn't know what city it was but there was a giant pizza place.

He didn't like this so he went on until it was getting late and he past a shop. Walking slowly as he curiously looked at a store with a weird disk.

Jump City Music Store

He was about to continue but he heard the door open and he turned in time to see a red haired boy around his age enter.

Following the boy with his purple eyes, he saw the boy walk to the side where some weird contraptions were stationed.

He watched as the boy pulled them on and pressed a red button, he bobbed his head and moved his lips to whatever he was listening.

Garth was hypnotized, this landboy had such a tense body before he walked in.

What could he possibly be listening to that has him so relaxed?

If he was curious before then he was beyond curiosity now.

Mustering up the courage, he took a deep breathe and walked in, hearing the door 'ding' at his entry, he jumped.

Scolding himself for being such a scaredy cat, he walked to the red head and grabbed another one of the strange object.

Furrowing his brows, he felt eyes on him and looked up to meet amused moss green eyes, Garth's breath hitched and he blushed, thoroughly embarrassed that he didn't know how to use the thing.

"You put those over you ears." he heard the other boy tell him.

"Thank You…" He spoke, feeling his heart flutter at the advise.

Putting them on, he began to hear a melodic voice, it was so passionate…...so incredibly emotional….

Say yeah (yeah!)

Let's be alone together (yeah)

We could stay young forever (yeah)

Scream it from the top of your lungs, lungs, lungs

Say yeah (yeah!)

He started humming, closing his eyes as he heard the sound of the man in the contraption.

You cut me off, I lost my track

It's not my fault, I'm a maniac

It's not funny anymore, no it's not

Opening his eyes, smiled blissfully at the boy who helped him, staring into the mossy orbs, he felt lightheaded.

My heart is like a stallion

They love it more when it's broke in

Do you wanna feel beautiful?

Do you wanna? Yeah!

He watched as the boy smiled back, a slight pink hue crossing his freckled cheeks and as the sound came to an end, he felt saddened that he could not be with this nice fellow for much longer.

They both took off their own head gear and the red haired boy introduced himself.

"Hey, I'm Roy."

"..I'm Garth.." he replied shyly.

And Roy grinned.

Present day….

Reaching the gym doors, Garth pulled open the doors slightly to see Roy loading another arrow on his bow.

Garth took a deep breath in and thought to himself.

It has been four years since we met in that music store. To think it was two years ago that we started being together. I've known him for so long... what could possibly be bothering him?

See you in the next chapter!
