Hey everyone! Here we go, the final Year 1 chapter! We're gonna be starting Year 2 soon!
... and now I have to admit I fucked up. This was supposed to be THE FIRST chapter of the arc. But I... well... misplaced it. *laughs nervously*
Oh well, time for us to see what James and his girls are up to!
James' Harem
Chapter 34: James and the Girls Year 1
James yawned as he awoke in a comfy hotel bed "Hmm..." He snuggled into his quilt as he moved upwards. He smiled, feeling a few bodies hugging him close. To his sides, were: Koriand'r, Komand'r, Jinx, Karen and Terra; also known as: Starfire, Blackfire, Jinx, Bumblebee and Terra. Yes two of them use their actual names, but who cares. Kori and Komand'r where sleeping in his bed while Karen and Jinx where sharing another with Terra having one by herself. James leant in and kissed both Kori and Kom on their foreheads tenderly. "Morning." He whispered gently
"Good morning, beloved James." Kori whispered in pure love as she looked up at him
"Hey..." James smiled, feeling his heart lighten when she said that
"Hmmm... I love waking up like this." Kom smiled, giving his chest a single loving kiss
"Morning." James answered, humming a little bit. He enjoyed being like this
"Did you have a nice dream?" Kori asked
"A real nice one." He smiled and nodded
"Hmm...Are we waking up?" Jinx asked as she mumbled awake
"Seems like it." Karen yawned
"Urgh...turn the alarm clocks off please..." Terra yawned
"There isn't one." James chuckled
"Oh...Okay..." Terra frowned, holding her head.
"Told you not to drink that wine." Jinx teased
"You drunk just as much as me..." Terra groaned "This content must be higher than back home."
"But Terra, you are the shortest of us and the slimmest." James informed "... Well, Jinx is thinner. But she has magic. And I think some form of alien ancestry. Anyway, because of you being so short and thin you have the lowest possible blood alcohol level. You get drunk easier than the rest of us."
"I...Can't argue with that." Terra admitted
"Plus James is a living ice cube, so he is fine." Karen smiled
"...I'm not sure to feel insulted or complimented." James commented
"It's a compliment." Karen responded
"Ah...Anyone for breakfast?" James asked
"I would love to partake in the breakfast." Kori raised her hand
"Yeah, sounds good to me." Kom added
"Well, we better get changed." James nodded as he got out of bed, gathered his cloths and went into the bathroom to get changed
"Hmm..." Karen hummed as she saw James enter the bathroom
"What're you thinking?" Jinx asked
"Just admiring James' cute butt." Karen teased
"Preach it sister." Blackfire joked
"James' front is quite cute." Starfire added
"No, it's hot!" Jinx smirked, giving a wolf whistle
"ACHOO!" James sneezed in the bathroom.
"Bless you!" They all called, Terra looking embarrassed
"Oh, sorry Terra." Kori apologized
"It...It's nothing." Terra frowned as she held herself with her quilt "I knew I'd see stuff like that when I spent time with you."
"Yeah, we ARE kinda rambunctious." Blackfire admitted
"But we haven't had sex since we started our world tour." Jinx added
"Unfortunately. I've never slept with him." Bumblebee pouted
"Well...Maybe we'll change that later." Blackfire smiled
"Maybe." Karen smiled slightly
*in the bathroom*
'Oh man...What a morning.' He thought 'Just like every morning.' He enjoyed his life currently; it was so peaceful and enjoyable "Alright..." he whispered as he stepped into the shower. He enjoyed the warm water, sighing happily 'It's not the Tower...But it feels great.' He thought. He sighed happily. He couldn't wait. And right now, he was going on tour around the world...He didn't expect this to happen all this early in his life. He soon dried and got dressed, walking out of the bathroom to see the girls where the same "Hey. Ready for breakfast?" James asked kindly
"Where is the next stop on our world tour?" Jinx asked as the group went down to the hotel restaurant for breakfast
"I think its Paris. Though we've got Manchester first." James answered
"We have yet to enjoy England yet." Starfire reminded
"I want to see London." Terra nodded
"Yeah, I'd like to meet this Mr Big Ben." Kori added
"I'm looking forward to see King's Cross Station." Karen added
"Okay. We will spend some time in London and head to Paris in a few days." James nodded. The girls smiled at that and began to plan out their day after breakfast. They enjoyed their breakfast, making a few jokes about the food in Britain, before they got ready "Alright, ready to head out now?" James asked kindly
"Ready." Terra nodded
The group smiled and left the hotel, heading out to the London atmosphere. People looked at them, amazed at seeing real super heroes 'Kinda feels like we're celebrities.' Karen smiled
"Feels like home." James admitted
"Yeah, I bet it does for you." Blackfire smiled and hugged his arm. They had been traveling for nearly three weeks now and they were enjoying it...For the most part. Things were a little shaky to begin with, but they were now in the fun part.
"This is nice weather at least." Kori smiled, taking a second to fly high and do a flip before she returned the ground
"Yeah...I don't know why people say it rains here all the time." James commented. He was glad he got Kori, Kom and Jinx to wear shorts under their skirts so they didn't flash anyone when they flew/danced, he didn't want perverts getting free shows from the women he loved
"So, where first? Tower of London or Piccadilly?" Jinx asked
"Ooooh! What about the shopping!" Kori smiled
"Oh yeah! I want to see what this place calls 'fashion'." Kom agreed. The other girls looked worried. They did enjoy a good shopping spree but... Kori was a bit exited by it
"So...Shopping, first?" James asked
"Sure." Jinx sighed
"Oh, joyous!" Kori leaped into the air and cheered
*time skip*
"Ooh...These are comfortable." Kori smiled as she lifted herself off the ground. She was wearing a purple sleeveless dress that went to her knees
"Looking good sis." Komand'r smiled, commenting kindly. The others all agreed, James sighed with several bags already around him
"Oh...I'm gonna need some extra arms." He commented. He smiled at that idea, messing with his Ultimatrix 'Let's see...' He thought as he cycled through his aliens...Until he found the one he thought would help. He transformed into a hulking silver-skinned, four-armed alien. He was wearing dark yellow and silver trousers and black boots. His hands were covered in black, fingerless gloves and his torso was covered in a yellow and black bulky vest "Ah...There we go." He smiled, picking up the bags with ease "Easy." He joked
"Wow, that one's new." Karen commented
"Yeah." James agreed. It didn't help that James' transformation was getting some looks. Though it was more in awe than fear... And cue Jinx walking out in nothing but a black and purple lacy bra and panties
"Well? What do you think?" She smirked at James
James' eyes almost popped out of his head and he was having a small nosebleed. "... Wow..."
"Yeah? Not TOO sexy?" Jinx spun around and showed off her body
"What IS 'too sexy'?" Karen blinked
"True." Jinx giggled as she bent back into the changing rooms.
'My brain...Is gone...' James thought with a blank staring look on his face. That was when the news turned on
"A robbery and hostage situation on the high street has occurred." The newswoman spoke
"Girls! We gotta go!" James said, pulling out money and throwing it at the cashier before they all took off running with Jinx having pulled her dress back on
"H-Hey!" The cashier called out as they left. He sighed and collected the money "Bloody heroes." He whispered
*Time skip*
The group were now at the bank, where the robbers were still holed up by a girl... A strange girl. Standing there was a girl with silver/light grey skin similar to Raven and spiked, black hair with red bangs. Her dress is black up until her waist, where she has a red skirt with black stripes. She was also wearing a long, black sleeves and black boots with a bit of red colouring on the bottom. She had a small red 'A' tattoo on her chest/collarbone area, between her C-cup breasts. She had crimson red eyes with black pupils and her lips where painted black
"What the? Who's that?" Kom asked
"Raven?" Jinx blinked
"Looks like her, but it isn't." James answered "In skin colour only... And the love of dark colours."
"And stay down you buggers." The girl said in a strange mix of a British and New Zealand accent, the girl generating red energy that pinned the crooks to the wall in binds of... Well... Energy
"Hey!" Kom called out
"Huh? ... Oh bloody hell! The Teen Titans! This is bloody awesome!" The girl gasped and grinned
"Err...Sorry; who're you?" Karen asked, trying to place this girl.
"I'm Argent, love!" She smiled
"Your name is 'Argent Love'?" James asked scratching his head
"... No. Love is just a British phrase." She frowned
"Oh..." The others answered. "Your name's 'Argent'."
"Yes." She nodded with a slight sigh before smiling "It is an honour to meet you! I mean... You're the Titans!"
"Nice-" James spoke before transforming back to normal. "To be met."
"Gah!" She gasped and jumped back
"Oh, sorry. Matrix transformation." James admitted
"Matrix?"
"Maybe we should go somewhere else?" Kom suggested
"Yeah, good point." Jinx nodded. "Come on."
"Okay!"Argent nodded, the police handcuffing the robbers as she followed the Titans
"Bloody heroes..." The robbers groaned
*time skip*
"So, you're a fan of ours...Being a potential hero yourself?" James asked
"Yes." Argent answered "I don't know where my powers came from, they just appeared one day. You Titans inspired me"
They were in Argent's home, a penthouse place that was VERY big
"Well...Can't say that you're not well off." Jinx commented as she saw the stuff she owned
"My mother is rich." She shrugged
"Fair enough." Karen answered
"Wow...This is a big wardrobe." Kori spoke "So many cloths!" She said with stars in her eyes
"Yeah...You've got quite the selection, Argent." Kom added
"You can have them. I don't wear them." She shrugged
"THANK YOU!" Kori smiled, entering the wardrobe and looked through them
"More cloths." James groaned
"Need a hand lifting them?" Argent offered, while smiling
"Sure." James nodded
"So...Just asking, what're your powers? I'm only asking cause of what we saw earlier." Jinx asked
"I can... Well... This." She shrugged as red energy shot from her hand and morphed into many different items
"Whoa!" the group gasped at that, seeing this skill.
"Construct powers, basically." She nodded
"So like the Green Lanterns." Karen spoke.
"Something like that." Argent answered "But I can make it stronger. They tend to turn from red to white when I use more power."
The group nodded at that, understanding her power...Then Kori came out wearing a mismatch of clothes "Tada!" She laughed
"Kori...What are you wearing?" Karen deadpanned
"Do you not like it?" Kori asked
"You look like a nine-year-old's toy that she put random clothes on it." Jinx answered
"Is that not good?" She asked
"Hang on. Let me help with that." Kom sighed, bringing her sister back to the wardrobe to change her clothes
"That girl." James sighed
"Is she normally like this?" Argent asked
"Yes." They all nodded
"But she's normally harmless if it's not fighting or fashion." Terra answered
"And I love her." James smiled
"Oh...So aside from you and Kori...Are you all friends?" Argent asked
"More than that." They all smiled, hugging James. Well, all but one
"I'm just their friend." Terra pointed out
"...Wow..." Argent blinked in awe and shock.
"Yeah...It...It's not a huge weird thing..." James chuckled lightly "... Okay, it kinda is but I love them and that's all I care about."
"Wow, that...that sounds different. I gotta say," Argent commented
"Yeah." James nodded
"So, you're a fan? Want some pointers or do you want to join our team?" Komand'r asked
"I... I could join?!" She gasped happily
"Yeah. You've got potential." Jinx added
Argent's eyes widened in excitement, almost bouncing for joy "YESYESYES!"
"Just need a quick training round to check; if that's alright." James added... And she tackled them, hugging them tightly
"Thankyouthankyouthankyou!" Argent cheered
"Ack! N-No problem..." James struggled to speak
*time skip*
"Okay. Are you ready?" James spoke, readying himself for this training brawl
"Yes." Argent nodded "Oh! And my real name is Toni, if you need to know."
"Alright, Toni." James nodded and used his matrix, transforming into an alien that wouldn't be too large for this fight. In a flash of light, which died down, he was a vine like creature. His pods were like yellow blooming flowers, the arms and legs looked like entwined vines with thorns. His chest and head were almost like bark with a yellow-brown tinge to them.
"Another new one." Jinx blinked
"Yeah...Must be some form of sentient plant. Much like Swamp Thing." Karen added
"Yep, my dad called them WildVine's." He nodded
"Then this is...'Ultimate Wildvine'?" Kom asked
"More or less." James answered "But that's what my dad would call it. Not me." He explained "Well then Argent, let's go." He said seriously
"Alright." Argent nodded, her hands glowing with the energy constructs to look like short blades. She held the glowing red blades and charged
James growled and raced at her; Argent swiped at him, James leapt above her smoothly dodging the blade and getting behind her. His tendrils which where his feet quickly got to work, wrapping up Argent as he was dodging
"Hey! Grr! HA!" Argent was wrapped up before cutting up the vines so that she was free "Not into that tentacle stuff mate." She scoffed as she landed, spinning her blades before she threw her arms forward. The blades flew through the air like bullets, morphing into massive boulders
"Oh boy." James spoke as he was hit by the boulders.
"James!" The girls gasped as James was squashed against a wall
"Uh oh..." Argent flinched in worry, thinking that she overdid it but then, the boulders dissipated and revealed the squashed plant that was James...Which reformed to a solid form. "WHOA! That was close!"
He panted and laughed "You know... For some reason I want to call this form 'Groot'. Don't know why, just feels right." He shrugged
"...Yes. Groot sounds great." Jinx agreed
"In Tamaranean 'Groot' means 'Old Wood'." Kori smiled
"THAT sounds kinky." Komand'r laughed
"Really? That name has a universal translation?" James asked
"Lots of words do." Argent said without thinking, where she froze as if in horror
"Huh...Makes sense. Want to continue?" 'Groot' asked but everyone noticed the way she froze, like she was hiding something, but they didn't say anything
"Toni...Do you still want to fight or do you want to leave it for today?" Groot asked
"No, I can still go." She assured, calming down
"Alright." James readied himself to fight.
*time skip*
The group were now resting in the hotel they were staying at...and they were having a drink. All of them with a smile, except for Terra and Argent "Still too young for another month." Argent explained
"Really? But...You look more mature than you said." Terra spoke
"I'm 20." She shrugged "Not quite 21. Can't buy from a bar. Besides, alcohol makes my powers weird."
"Smart thinking." James spoke, drinking a light drink.
"James is a flirty drunk." Jinx winked
"I...Hmm." James blushed, shutting up before he made a spectacle of himself
"He says the most flirtatious things." Kori added
"And the sweetest." Karen sighed dreamily
"Like what?" Argent asked
"Oh, mother...Kill me now...!" James sunk into his drink.
"How I am as beautiful as a star and how, if he was still a baby, he would eat me all up." Blackfire smirked "His species eats suns as babies." she added as clarification
"Or how magically amazing I was, how he was lucky to meet me." Jinx continued. "I'm a luck manipulator."
"Oh...!" James covered his face in embarrassment.
"Or how I was his Queen Bee and how he wanted to worship me." Karen winked
"He... Said I was a beautiful jewel." Terra blushed, and since she wasn't dating James that just pointed out how much of a flirty drunk James was
"Oh...Just bury me now...!" James blushed under his arms and hands
"... Oh..." Argent blushed
"You love it. Cause we love you." Jinx kissed his cheek
James smiled lightly but he was still blushing brightly "Yeah yeah." he grumbled
"So...how did you all meet?" Argent asked randomly
James smiled, telling the story of how the Titans came to be "... And that's it." He finished
"Wow...that...that's amazing." Argent whispered in amazement
"Yeah." James and Kori smiled
"So...do you keep in contact with the others or...?" Argent asked
"No." James admitted "Because we need to wait until the team comes back together."
"Oh, alright..." Argent answered
"But...I'm sure the others would like to get to know you." Kori spoke in a friendly fashion
"Agreed." James nodded, pulling out a Titan Communicator
"Is...Is that?" Argent asked in awe
"Yep. A Titan Communicator." James answered
"Take it." Karen nodded
"Really?" Argent's hand shook as she saw the communicator, being given it. She took the small yelled device and hugged it against her chest, smiling
"Welcome to the Titans, Argent." Karen commented
"Thank you." She smiled
Terra looked at Argent and smiled lightly...though, she thought of her as either as a friend...or maybe another harem rival. She really hoped it was the former. She loved James, wishing he would let her join his relationship but she didn't want to be rude and she was too shy to ask. She hummed silently to herself and looked away, though subtly. Argent blinked and looked away, thinking it wasn't her business "So... what do we do now?" Argent asked
"Dunno. We just hang out?" Kom suggested. Everyone nodded in agreement at that
"Hey Argent." James said suddenly "You looked worried when you mentioned alien language earlier."
"Y-You noticed that?" Argent asked
"Yeah." James nodded
"Tell us, we won't judge." Kori spoke kindly
"I... I'm half alien." She admitted, looking down
The group didn't seem phased by this. In fact, they just remained quiet until James answered. "So am I."
"I was made to be a sleeper agent to take over the world." Argent continued
"We're former HIVE agents who were tasked to take down the Titans." Jinx spoke, pointing to herself and Karen
"My name means Silver Death." she said simply
"Oh..." the group answered, flinching lightly
James put his hand on her bare shoulder gently, smiling "It's alright, Toni." James reassured her.
"Thank you." She smiled, kissing his cheek "I'll see you all tomorrow." She nodded, walking away
"Yeah...S-See you tomorrow." James answered, blinking in shock. He rubbed his cheek lightly, blushing
"...Do we need to worry about another potential lover to the group?" Kom teased her future husband
"Kom." He sighed
"I'm only teasing." Kom frowned lightly
"I guess." James nodded
"It was not a nice teasing, sister." Kori added
"I know, I know..." Kom sighed while crossing her arms
"Yeah." Terra blushed
*time skip*
The group were now headed for the ships, headed for France; it was time for them to head off "Bye Argent." James waved
"Bye everyone. Don't be strangers." Argent waved back... Before she flew over, pulling James into a kiss
"HMM?" James hummed in shock, along with the other girls who got glistening eyed
"Come visit me before you all go and reform the Titans. I wanna meet the rest of the team, okay Luv?" She smiled, flying away and waving as she ship left
"I...Buh...Wha...Huh?" James blinked in shock as he idly waved
The others chuckled with smiles
