Time to introduce to a member to The Team! This chapter will have less action than the other ones, but you will have some laughs.
Chapter 7
"First Raizen now this?" Batman asked as he was talking to Wonder Woman, "Just how many sidekicks do you plan on bringing in?"
"First off," Wonder Woman said, "Raizen was necessary because you said that you want answers from him, which he did as part of our agreement. And second, I don't have any sidekicks. I made a promise to them to join The Team."
As Batman looks at the figure next to her, he sighs and said "Very well. I can't believe this is happening twice."
It is the 4th of July as The Team were relaxing while Raizen was sleeping. Despite being on The Team for a short while, some of the team members don't trust him yet. The only members who are starting to trust him are Miss Martian, Robin and Rocket. Even though Aqualad and Zatanna feel comfortable with the new member, but still need time to trust him more. Only Kid Flash, Artemis and Superboy are the only ones who have no trust for the young Saiyan. Only time will tell when the whole team will trust Raizen.
But today is going to be different for the whole team. As everyone was in the living room, except for Raizen, watching tv, the computer said "Recognize: Wonder Woman."
Hearing Wonder Woman's name, The Team got up and Kid Flash said "Dude, why is Wonder Woman here?"
Aqualad then said "We should find out."
After he said that, everyone made their way to the briefing room. Once they were there, they saw Wonder Woman standing there. Just as they got there, Wonder Woman started to press the buttons on the console and the computer said "Accepted."
When the Zeta Tube lit up, the computer said "Recognize: Wonder Girl."
Everyone's eyes widen when they heard that. For them to have a new member already, that was something. All of a sudden, a figure appeared from the Zeta Tube: it was none other than Donna Troy. She was wearing a one-piece, sleeveless black uniform that was well-fitted to her body, silver boots, a silver belt with a silver lasso on the side and silver braces. And on her chest, there was a silver 'W'.
As the female heroes smiled at the new member being another female, the guys couldn't help but let their jaws hit the floor when they witness Donna's beauty. Their thoughts were interrupted when Wonder Woman said "Team, I would like for you all to meet my sister, Donna Troy."
Donna took a bow and said "Nice to meet you all. You may call me Wonder Girl."
"Whoa, Whoa, Whoa!" Kid Flash said, "You have a sister?!"
Wonder Woman laughed and said "She is my sister alright. We are both Amazons."
She then said "I have agreed to let her join The Team. So make her feel like home. I have to return to the Watchtower."
With that, Wonder Woman turns to the Zeta Tube and teleported back to the Watchtower, leaving Donna with The Team. Excited with a new team member, Robin said "Nice to meet you, Wonder Girl. I am Robin."
He starts pointing at the others and said "And that is Aqualad, Kid Flash, Miss Martian, Artemis, Zatanna, Rocket and Superboy."
"There is one more member," Artemis said, "But he is asleep."
Donna smiled and said "I am glad that I am part of this. I have always wanted to see the world of man."
"Well," Superboy said, "We hope you like it."
Miss Martian then said "Hello Megan, you should join us in our get together."
Donna raised an eyebrow and said "Megan? My name isn't Megan."
Zatanna shook her head and said "That is her name and catch phrase. You'll get use to it."
"Come on, girl," Rocket said, "Let's go show you around."
As they were walking around, Donna said "You said that there was another member. Who are they?"
Superboy growled and said "He is still asleep."
Once they reached the dinning room, Aqualad said "This is where we normally hang out before we depart on our missions."
When Donna nodded, down the hallway, Raizen was walking wearing only his undersuit. His tail was lazily hanging out and his rubbed his eyes. As he yawned, everyone heard him just as he entered the dining room. The moment Donna saw Raizen, her eyes widen. After a moment of silence, Raizen said "What is going on? Who is she?"
"Dude," Kid Flash said, "She is part of the team now."
As Raizen looks at Donna, he said "So…already finding a replacement I see."
"Replacement?" Robin said, "No, she is a new member."
Donna then said "I for one am very grateful to meet you."
Everyone looks at her and said "What?!"
"How did you know him?" Artemis asked.
Donna replied "He was the one who saved Themyscira from Ares."
Raizen remembered and said "I remember now, you were there when I fought him."
"I was," Donna said, "And may I say that you have impressive fighting techniques."
"Thanks," Raizen said as he looks at The Team, "At least SOMEONE appreciates my abilities."
"Oh boo hoo," Superboy said, "Not everyone's perfect."
Donna then said "I especially was amazed when you turned into a giant ape to defeat Ares. I have never witness anything like that."
"Hold up," Robin said, "Say that again? Did you say he can turn into a giant ape?"
Zatanna then said "Oh yeah, Raizen told me about that. It only happens when there is a full moon."
Confused, Donna said "But there wasn't any full moon when he fought against Ares."
Raizen then said "But I used a technique that can amplify the same amount of energy from a full moon. Most Saiyans have learned this technique in case we want to use our Great Ape Form."
"So, you can turn into King Kong?" Rocket asked, "That is awesome."
Miss Martian then said "What else can you do?"
Raizen smiled and said "You will have to find that out later."
Aqualad coughed up and said "Raizen, this is Wonder Girl. Wonder Woman brought her in just a while ago."
As Raizen walks up to Donna, he sticks out his right hand and said "Well…welcome to the team, I suppose."
When Donna grabbed his hand and shakes it, Raizen said "Just hope that everyone is nicer to you. When I first joined this team, some of them were a bit…uncertain of me."
"Oh my god!" Artemis cried, "Are you seriously going there?!"
When Donna and Raizen departed, the Saiyan looks at Artemis and said "You don't like me, so why do I care?"
As Artemis growled at him, Donna said "Anyways, what kind of missions do we take for The League?"
Aqualad replied "We mostly take on infiltration missions, stealth operations, and rarely team up with the Justice League for bigger missions."
When Donna gave off a disappointment look, she said "Is that all we get? I am an Amazon, I want to battle foes like my sister."
"Welcome to the club, sister," Rocket said.
Miss Martian said "If you want to prove yourself, you start here and work yourself up."
As Donna sighed in frustration, Raizen said "If it makes you feel better, I felt exactly the same way when I first joined this team."
When everyone looks at him, Raizen said "My whole life I was expected to be the best in battle. I push myself to the limit and beyond to become stronger than my fellow brethren. And for me to be part of a team that lacks the chance to improve my skills is disappointing."
Hearing Raizen saying that, The Team gave him a hurt look. But their expressions changed when Raizen said "However, when I joined this team, I felt relaxed for the first time. Sure some of the members here are spoiled brats, some will have your back when you need help."
As Donna was uncertain, Raizen said "My father taught me an important lesson: that is to be patient. Don't worry, you will prove yourself when given the chance."
Hearing Raizen say that, Donna smiled at him. Deciding to lighten things up, Miss Martian said "How about we all go out to the beach? We are going to cook up some hot dogs and burgers."
Raizen's tail sticks straight up and said in an excited way "I'll get the stuff ready and go ahead!"
With that, Raizen rushed to the refrigerator and started to grab everything. Once that happened, Raizen made his way to the beach. As Donna gave off a confused look, Artemis looks at her and said "You'll get use to that. Come on, let's go and have some fun."
Donna looks at her and said "Fun?"
Rocket said "Girl, we are going to show you a good time."
After a few minutes of everyone changing into their bathing suits, The Team was on the beach enjoying the sunshine. Since Donna didn't have a bathing suit, Zatanna allowed her to borrow one: it was a one-piece suit that was black and was well-fitted to her body, revealing her curves. All the guys can't help but drop their mouths, despite having their girlfriends having a jealous looks on their faces. But Raizen was the only one who couldn't keep his eyes off of her. The sheer beauty that Donna was giving off was almost blinding to Raizen's eyes.
His thoughts were interrupted when Rocket snapped her fingers in front of his face and said "You okay there?"
Raizen softly shook his head and said "Fine, I'm fine."
Looking back and forth between him and Donna, Rocket smirked and said "Ohh! Someone's got a crush on someone."
As Raizen raised an eyebrow, Rocket said "Have a connection? Found their soul mate? Discovered their other half?"
Raizen continues to give her the confused look as Rocket said "Seriously, not getting the hints?"
When Raizen shook his head, Rocket said "You like the new girl, do you?"
Eyes widen, Raizen said "What? Why would I like her?"
Rocket replied "I saw you drooling like the others."
Raizen huffed and said "No I wasn't."
Rocket laughed and said "Don't think what you don't know."
While the two of them were talking, Donna was talking to the others and Robin said to her "So Donna, what kind of powers do you have?"
Kid Flash then said "You have the same powers as Wonder Woman?"
Donna replied "Yes, I do. But the difference is my lasso."
As she took out her lasso, that was on her side the whole time, she said "My sister has the Lasso of Truth while I posses the Lasso of Persuasion."
Artemis raised an eyebrow and said "Isn't that the same?"
Donna shook her head and said "No, mine had the ability to control anyone within its grasp."
"Whoa," Zatanna said, "You can control anyone?"
Donna shrugged and said "So long as my willpower is greater than theirs."
Robin then said "Can I borrow it for a bit?"
Interested in what he is going to do, Donna said "Sure, just don't do anything rash."
When Donna handed Robin the lasso, he got the end of it and threw it at Kid Flash's arm. Surprised at what Robin did, when Kid Flash saw him, he gave off a devious smile. Robin then said "Why are you hitting yourself?"
Hoping that Kid Flash would hit himself, nothing happened. Kid Flash laughed and said "Ha! It didn't work, you jerk!"
As Robin cursed, Rocket and Raizen regroups with the others and the Saiyan said "What is going on here?"
Robin looks at him and said "I am trying to make KF hit himself using Wonder Girl's lasso. It has the power to control anyone."
Kid Flash said "Too bad that my willpower is greater than yours."
Narrowing his eyes, Raizen said "Let me hold it."
Shrugging, when Robin hands Raizen the lasso and grabs hold of it, the lasso started to glow silver. Kid Flash's eyes widen, gulped and said "Oh no."
Smiling, Raizen said "Why are you hitting yourself?"
At that moment, Kid Flash's left hand was swings across his face! When Kid Flash screamed in pain, everyone laughed. Laughing at this, Raizen said "Why are you hitting yourself?"
Kid Flash then slaps himself with his right hand. This process continues for about a minute until both of Kid Flash's cheeks were bright red. Kid Flash then yelled "Will you stop that?!"
Aqualad then said "As much this is amusing, you have to stop."
Robin pats Raizen and said "I had my laugh, let him go."
Nodding, when Raizen removed the lasso off of Kid Flash, the Speedster said "That is not cool."
When Raizen hands the lasso to Donna, he didn't notice her cheeks blushing. Once that happen, Miss Martian finished the hot dogs and said "Hot Dogs are done."
Hearing that, Kid Flash rushed up to Miss Martian and grabs two of them. All of a sudden, something wrapped around Kid Flash's body. When he looks down, he saw Donna's lasso wrapped around his upper body. But when he looks back, he saw Raizen holding the lasso. Gritting his teeth, Kid Flash knew what was going to happen.
Raizen smiled and said "Will you please hand them over?"
Kid Flash then made his way towards Raizen and hands him the hot dogs. As some of the team laughed, Artemis shook her head and said "Why are you doing that?"
Raizen looks at her and said "You want a try?"
"Tempting as that sounds," Artemis said, "But that is not funny."
After eating one of the hot dogs, Raizen removes the lasso and hands it back to Donna. He then said to her "Sorry about that."
Donna lightly shrugged and said "That's okay."
When she grabs her lasso, their eyes met and where lost into each other's eyes. Raizen couldn't look away while Donna was just standing there blushing. After a brief second, the two of them departed.
Off to the side, Superboy said "What now?"
Miss Martian replied "Let's play a round of volleyball, boys vs. girls!"
The boys stretched their bodies and Robin said "No powers though."
When everyone agreed, Raizen said "I have never played this 'volleyball' before."
Rocket wrapped her arms around his neck and said "We'll show you. Come on."
After a long day of fun activities and having a nice lunch, it was nighttime and The Team was lying on the beach waiting for the main event. Each of the guys was holding their girlfriends in their arms: Robin with Zatanna, Superboy with Miss Martian, Kid Flash with Artemis and Aqualad with Rocket. Only Raizen and Donna were lying on the sand by themselves.
Raizen broke the silence by saying "So…what are we waiting for again?"
Robin looks at him and said "Just sit back and relax. This is always my favorite part."
After a minute of waiting, fireworks started to explode in the sky. Thinking that it was some sort of an attack, Raizen got up and was about to fly until Kid Flash said "Dude, relax. It is part of the show."
When Raizen looks at him, Zatanna said "Those are just fireworks. They are for show."
Relaxing a bit, Raizen sits back down and watches the fireworks. Next to him, Donna said "This is beautiful."
Raizen shrugged and said "I admit this is a fascinating view, but honestly, I have seen better."
Donna looks at him and said "Like what?"
Raizen replied "I have been to planets that have unimaginable beauty, to the point of almost taking your breath away."
"Wow," Donna said, "I have never been outside of Themyscira. And seeing this is the best day I have had so far."
Looking back at the fireworks, Raizen smirks a bit and said "Yeah…I suppose it is mine as well."
Finally lying on his back, Raizen placed his hands over his head and let out a sigh of relief. It is times like these that Raizen is relaxed, for almost all his life, he has never been fully relaxed. That is why he intends to enjoy this day, because later on, life will be a challenge for him.
That is right! Donna Troy AKA Wonder Girl has joined the team! Expect some action from her. As for her outfit, I liked the classic black and silver outfit better than the other one, so I made some changes to her outfit. Hope you enjoyed this chapter!
