Teen Titans' Evaluation
A/N: Here's the chapter, sorry it's so late!
Robin was secretly a bit afraid for Cyborg. Fire and Ice, aka heat and cold to machines, were deadly. He didn't know if Cyborg's robot body could survive such tests…
"Now we'll have Cyborg up with Fire. Judges remain the same," Superman announced. (Note to all: Fire is going to be fully clothed when her powers are activated in this story)
Cyborg evaluated Fire. All he knew was that she controlled some green fire that allowed her to fly and blast flames. Not much to work with. 'Gotta read up to the League database,' he sent himself a mental note.
Fire flew up into the air and started to blast Cyborg. He reacted by sending 'ice missiles' (similar to the bird-a-rangs Robin uses to freeze people), which were quickly melted down.
She then sent a freezing-flame (yes, she can do that), which totally caught Cyborg off-guard.
'Didn't know she could do that,' he mused to himself, quickly firing back missiles.
He rushed forward to close the distance between them while Fire was distracted with melting the missiles he fired. He punched her, not knowing that Batman had trained her in hand-to-hand combat.
She reacted quickly, dodging to one side and grabbing his fist, slamming him face-down into the ground.
Cyborg shocked her with electricity and used her momentary weakness to punch her in the gut.
Fire changed her clothing to that of an ice hockey goalie's immediately.
'Ow!' Cyborg thought, resisting the urge to massage his fist. 'I didn't know she could do that, either!'
He changed his arm into a sonic cannon to blast her, which she countered with a freeze blast, immobilizing his cannon. Cyborg struck her with the iced fist and the ice shattered on the goalie suit.
Fire changed her clothes back to her normal green costume and then turned her eyes black.
'Wha..?!' Cyborg thought.
Then he was blasted with a strong flame which disabled his system.
"Not entirely bad," Question said "I liked how he shattered the ice on the goalie suit. That was quick thinking. However, I see that you were often surprised and caught off-guard as you didn't really know much about her. Well, I suggest reading such things up, as well as that of villains, so you will be able to organise a better attack if it comes to that."
"Clearly Fire was in control of the whole fight," Vixen said. "But you did react fast, shocking her with electricity. You wanted to fight, and you were on the aggressive side. But, as Question said, you had a poor knowledge of Fire."
"Not much left for me to say," Captain Atom said.
Cyborg did a little better with Ice, as he had heat missiles and he could turn of the cooling in his suit, disabling Ice's powers.
He did even better with Captain Marvel, the main threats to machines gone. He was pretty battered up at the end of the fight, but had managed to stun Captain Marvel a bit, though not enough to turn him back into Billy Batson.
"Improvement is needed," Question said "I see how you made use of heat to disable Ice. As for Captain Marvel, I think you held your ground quite well. You were quite agile, but during the whole fight you hardly threw a punch. I understand Captain Marvel may be tough, but so are villains, so you need to make yourself stronger, if possible,"
"Captain Marvel was beating the crap out of you," Vixen said "You need better strategy to fight back. There were a few moments you could have done that, but you failed to notice the loopholes."
"Worse than I expected," Captain Atom said. "No offense, Captain, but you aren't much different from Mammoth with the power to fly."
"None taken," the Captain replied.
"As Vixen said, there were times when you could've thrown a punch," he continued. "I think you need to work on fighting such villains."
"Thanks for serving as judges," Superman said to the trio.
"It's an honour," Question said, shaking Superman's hand.
"My pleasure," Vixen said.
"Whatever it takes to strengthen the league," Atom said.
The three judges left, and Superman turned to the Titans.
"Now, we will have a self-evaluation session. Let's start with Robin. What did you learn through your fights?"
"Well," Robin answered. "I've become aware that I don't know how to respond to magical attacks. I might have to work with Raven on that one. As for speedsters, I guess I'm not that good with speed too. I'll be working on that. I'll be focusing on these two areas in training."
"How do you feel right now, after the fighting?"
"Relieved, actually," he replied. "Leaguers are powerful, I knew that,"
"So you wanted to impress us?"
"Well…"
"Ok, I get the idea. Moving on. Starfire, how did you find your fights?"
"Oh, they were most exhausting and tiring. I found my fights quite like an alarm clock. They have alerted me that my fighting skills in water are poor. They have also reminded me that I need to think carefully in battle."
"What do you think of Beast Boy's fight?"
"Oh, Friend Beast Boy was absolutely brave and enduring. I see him as a strong warrior."
"Alright. Beast Boy, tell me, how do you think you did in your fight?"
"I was surprised I didn't die," he said truthfully
The others chuckled.
"When I was walking up to the arena, I told myself to do my best. Looks like that worked."
"Who do you think had the most strategy in their fights?"
"Raven," he answered.
Raven raised an eyebrow.
"She used a lot of moves like making a fist out of her shield. She also startled Superman with some martial arts moves, which she unleashed at the best moment. Summoning ants was funny but also clever, she knew you'd be able to blast things like bunnies and gorillas away."
"I see. You've been paying a lot of attention to her fights, right?" Superman teased.
Beast Boy defended himself. "I pay attention to everyone's fights."
"Raven. Who do you think was your toughest opponent?"
"You, of course," Raven replied. "No offense, but Huntress and Canary do not have superior strength or agility. They don't have 'freeze breath' and they cannot shoot lasers out of their eyes. My martial arts were around their level,"
"Exceeding, I think," Cyborg murmured.
"So, I didn't really have that much of a challenge fighting them. But you, Superman, have super strength, super speed, laser-shooting eyes, freeze breath, great endurance, strong defence, and a body which bullets cannot fire through."
"So, what do you think about Robin's fight?"
"I think Robin does need to be exposed to magical attacks, as he hasn't got much experience," she replied. "He is a bit too used to fighting people with martial arts skills and fancy gadgets, and people with strong bodies armed with cannons or guns, but not people with superpowers like speed or magic."
"Cyborg. How do you feel now?"
"Well, I lost, and I lost bad," he said "I'm a bit sad, but happy at the same time. I saw my little sister and best friend do really well, and I'm proud of them."
Beast Boy broke a huge grin.
Raven gave the tiniest of smiles.
"I'm also glad that I've found my faults so that I can improve myself better,"
"What do you think of Starfire's fight with Hawkgirl?"
"Well, they have a similar style, but Hawkgirl has more experience. Starfire is…less careful, and while Hawkgirl is rash, she actually thinks her moves through. I think Hawkgirl wasn't doing her best in the fight, though,"
"Thank you for your time. Now, go back to your rooms, take a shower, and get some sleep. We'll be doing more tomorrow."
A/N: Hope you enjoyed this chapter! Please review, and support my other story, Covert Op. It's an Avengers fanfic, a one-shot of Fury/Widow, because there are only like 2 or 3 stories featuring this couple and I wanted to explore something new. Here's the link: s/9776589/1/Covert-Op
Thanks!
