"So, your from the future, and we're your parents?" Bumblebee asked once everybody sat on their trademark half-circle sofa.
"Ya know, Frio was right. Their parents weren't much older than them when they joined Titans East." Aquatica pointed out.
"Dammit, where's Fiddler when you need her." Black Cat hissed as he tapped a communicator. "Cy said he made these so they could send signals through dimensions."
"I wouldn't mind if her crazy aunts came. They always manage to clean up any trouble we get into." Hornet sighed.
"*censored* ! They don't have any rock! What's wrong with you people?" Speedette swore as she rummaged through their CD collection.
Black Cat walked over to where his sister was, the CD shelves. He bent down, and carefully selected a case. He stood up, he was easily six feet tall, and read the back of the case. He turned to his fuming sister, and said in a polite voice, "Try this one, 'Lette."
Speedette accepted the CD hesitentaly. She placed it in the sterio, and pressed play. A screaming guitar met her ears, and she squealed with delight. "Three Days Grace! They're one of my favorite bands! Thanks Tabs!" Speedette jammed out with an imaginary guitar in her hands. Black Cat smiled pleasently, and silently walked back to the couch to listen to the arguement unfolding there.
"I don't want to listen to this anymore." Bi mumbled to herself. She took a deep breath, and she turned into a lion-like thing with an incredibly large maw that would easily swallow a car whole. An immense roar echoed throughout the common room, and everyone was as silent as a louse (because lice are quieter than mice)*.
"Thank you. Now, are there any relitives on your team?" Bi questioned Black Cat.
"Well, Speedette and I are siblings, and Frio y Calieante are twins."
"Frio y Calieante?"
"Hot 'n' Cold. Menos said they couldn't join the team yet on account of being 'too young'." Aquatica stuck her tongue out at Mas y Menos. Then she added, "Did you guys hear that?"
Bi transformed into a cobra that was easily fifty feet long and ten feet around, and layed on the ground, trying to sence vibrations. "What ever it is, it's big and it's close by." Bi reported after transforming back to her normal state.
Speedette and Speedy strung arrows, Hornet and Bumblebee unsheathed their stingers, Aqualad and Aquatica cecked for water supplies, Mas y Menos grasped hands, and Black Cat lowered into a fighting stance. Things were going to get ugly, fast.
...ssSss...
Thirty years in the Future (for specifics, 2041).
"Where are they?"
"Titans Youth and Tyke Titans are even missing!"
"How is this possible?"
The Titans were gathered at Titans West Tower, wondering where their children went. The only ones who weren't missing were Frio y Calieante, Menos and Melvin's twins; and Fiddler, one of Herald and Di's kids. Frio, a tall, gangly boy with sandy yellow hair, was next to his much smaller sister with flame-colored hair. Calieante was steaming, Why weren't they taken too?
"Fiddler, why don't you and Frio y Calieante go on a search mission and try to find the others?" Nightwing assigned them.
"Why did you choose us, and not my Dad? Or even my Mom and her siblings?" Fiddler questioned.
"Because this will prove if you are able to become a Teen Titan." Nightwing replied in an official-sounding voice.
"Before you send our children away, may we have a word with them?" Herald asked. Di, Menos, and Melvin were behind him.
"You may."
"Fiddler, you may be young, but you are strong. Dance to the tune of your own life-" Herald began.
"And realize that the best path isn't always bathed in light. Embrace the darkness once in a while. Take this with you," Di concluded as she waved her hand, constructed a small shadow beast. "He will protect you in times of need."
"Frio y Caliaente, you need to work together just like Mas and I did. Be safe and we await your swift return." Menos gave his advice to his twins.
"I may not be able to give you a shadow creature, but take these. They will protect you as well as any shadow creature." Melvin handed the twins two items. She handed Frio a silver ring in the shape of a dragon, and Caliaente recieved a silver bracelet about two inches thick with the imprint of a polar bear on it.
"Why did you give us opposite creatures?" Frio asked in a quiet voice.
"I have my reasons." Melvin gave a sly smile.
"You need to start here." Herald gave an envoloupe with a specific dimension, time, even a place along with another envoloupe. "You know what to do."
A lone fiddle played, and Frio y Calieante, along with the fiddler, dissapeared in a flash of darkness.
...ssSss...
"That's amazing, Jericho!" Space exclaimed. She leaned against the rock that Jericho was playing his guitar on.
Jericho nodded a silently, and began strumming another song. A lone chord from a violin sung out, and a tall girl fell at the foot of the rock.
"Ooof!" She said as she got the wind knocked out of her. Gasping for another breath, she asked, "Do you (pant) know (pant) where the (pant, pant) Herald is? (gasp!)"
A small, dog-like creature that fell next to her sat up and shook his head. He opened his blood red eyes and sniffed the air. Nuzzling the girl, who was dressed in a suit much like Herald's, the dog walked towards Space and gave a small bark.
"Herald?" Space called over the Titan communicator. "There's some one here to see you."
"I'll be right there." Herald replied.
...ssSss...
"Owie! Pain!" Caliaente wimpered as she was dropped off. She curled up into a ball and mentally cursed Fiddler. She then got up to survey her surroundings. For a ten year old, she was on the moderatly-short side. And this moderatly-short ten year old wasn't going to take crap from anybody. Expecially from the green teen on the couch. She walked up to the back of the couch and smacked him upside the head. "Have you seen an green girl, a goth guy, a girl dressed as a traffic light, and an alein that is too full of himself?" She demanded in a threatening voice.
Beast Boy had been watching a Young Justice marathon, and never expected to be slapped upside the head by a short kid with a smart mouth. The girl had circulor goggles with a dark tint resting on her forehead, and a yellow and red suit with a flame emblem on her chest. She leaned on her right foot with the corresponding hand on her hip. The thing that disturbed him the most was that she described the main Titans with opposite genders.
"Well?" Her voice raised to a dangerous level, and embers formed in her hand.
"I saw nobody!" Beast Boy shreiked. His hands were placed in front of his face to protect it from the rippling heat radiating from her.
"Ya know, I wouldn't expect them to be so blind." A masculine voice called out.
"Got that right, Robyn." A second feminine voice sassed.
Four teens were standing in the kitchen area of the common room. 'Robyn' looked like Robin, but with longer hair and a more feminine body. The other girl had green skin like himself, but it was two shades lighter and she was about five-foot-two. One of the boys was dressed in a black t-shirt loosely tucked into black jeans and a red belt, and his nose was in a book called, "A Tell Tale Heart" by Edgar Allen Poe. The final member of the group was a taunt fellow that was about five-foot-eight and had a tan, and he was wearing a dark blue shirt with blue jeans.
The green girl was messing around with the stove. "Trufire, can you help me? I can't figure out how to turn on this stove."
"Sure, B.G." Trufire floated over to the green girl and ripped the stove from the wall. He took a closer lok at the buttons and knobs.
"That probly wasn't nessessary." The teen dressed in black commented.
"Hey Caliaente! S'up!" Robyn shouted. She lept over the kitchen island and bounded over to the short girl that attacked him. "Do you know what brought us here?" She gestured, indicating the common room.
"Well, I never expected Dad to be so short." The boy in black commented. He walked towards Beast Boy as Trufire and the green girl argued over how to turn on the detached stove. "My name's Crow, and my mother is- Mmmf!"
Robyn clamped her hand over his mouth. "They don't need to know that. If you tell them, you might not exist." Robyn emphisized the last word.
"Well, when you put it that way-"
"Beast Boy, who are these people?" Robin asked as he stood at the entrance of the common room with Raven, Cyborg, and Starfire behind him.
"Well Da-"
"You need to remember your own advice."
"IT SAYS TO TURN THIS KNOB!"
"BUT YOUR SUPPOSED TO PUSH THE BUTTON FIRST!"
...ssSss...
"AAARG!" Frio screamed as he was dropped off at an Irish Monestery. There are always smoother enteances than landing on your face in a crowd of bald monks.
"Monk Astair! Who's that!" A little boy that reminded him of his sister shouted. He even had a flame emblem imprinted on his chest.
Frio stood up, dusted himself off, and told the crowd, " I'm here looking for the Tyke Titans: Chip, Lyght, and Sound."
"FrIIIIIOOOOOOO!" Three gleeful, childish voices dragged out his name. A small African-American boy, about five; a girl with white hair sticking up, about seven; and a boy that was quite thick around the middle, about three ran up to him.
"Bobby, this is Frio! He came to take us home!" The African-American boy, Chip, cried out.
"Bobby?" Frio asked in a small voice.
"Teether is great at making up games!" The girl with white hair, Lyght, gleefully announced.
"Teether?"
"And Timmy and I have shouting matches! And it's actually hard too!" The thicker boy, Sound, screeched.
"Timmy?"
"Melvin makes the best stories! You need to listen to them! They're almost as good as Mom's!" Lyght tugged at Frio's jeans.
"Melvin? Oh shit."
"What was that word?" Sound asked.
"Ocean! I said ocean." Frio corrected. "Mabey just one story, then I got to call Fiddler to take you guys home."
