Author's Note: This chapter is dedicated to dragonmaster01, who came up with the plot for it. Of course I take requests! These things are damn hard to come up with. I probably won't get them out right away, however. This story is Beast Boy centered, he gets stuck as a green dog and a girl finds him.
Disclaimer: I don't own the Teen Titans. And technically, I don't own the basic plot to this sucker, either. All borrowed without interest, take that World Bank!
…
"Titans go!"
The five teenaged superheroes of Southern California sprinted into the park, ready to vanquish evil and defend the innocent. Today the evil villain was a man named Magus. He was a short and scrawny 28-year-old who was recognized by the scientific world for his experiments with genetics. The Titans found him standing by a bench tossing crumbled bread to pigeons whilst watching the children play in the square. (AN: ooo… So evil)
Robin stepped in front of him. "You're experiments end today, Magus." The other four Titans stepped closer, surrounding him.
Magus tossed another handful of crumbs at the pigeons, who cooed contently. "Nice little planet you've got here. Shame if something happened to it."
"Teen Titans, attack!"
Beast Boy morphed into a dog and bounded towards Magus. He flew through the air and caught Magus in the chest, shoving him to the ground. Beast Boy let out a growl of triumph before Magus's arm forced a needle into his side. A howl of pain was heard for miles before Beast Boy was tossed to the side as Magus rose to defeat the other titans.
"Raven, get Beast Boy to safety!" The hound was engulfed in a black mist as he floated to the playground nearby.
…
Beast Boy woke up to find himself resting in a sandbox. A little girl with a blue dress and short blonde hair stared at him, her head cocked to the side in playful curiosity. "Hi puppy, I'm Alexa."
Beast Boy raised an eyebrow. 'Who's she calling 'puppy?'' He slowly stood up on all fours, feeling the blunt of the fall. He could tell that he had a large bruise on his left side and the area where Magus injected him was swollen and sore. He took in his surroundings, the sandbox and swings just beyond it, the slide and teeter-totters, the trees and pathways, and all of the children slowly gathering around him.
"Why's his fur green?"
"What's his name?"
"Does he do any tricks?"
Hands jutted out and clutched fistfuls of fur and skin and whiskers. 'Is this really necessary?'
A little boy with sun blonde hair poked Beast Boy's nose. "He's kinda ugly."
''Ugly?' I have my own fan club, you little snot-nosed booger-eating punk!' Beast Boy let out a deep growl that resounded from the back of his throat. Alexa stepped in front of him and pushed the boy into the sandbox. "He's not ugly! He's da cutiest dog here, and his name is… Sparky!"
Beast Boy's eyes enlarged and he stopped registering all of the roaming little hands. ''Sparky?' No way, I'm tired of being a dog, gotta help the Titans.' Beast Boy tried to morph into his human form, abruptly a shock of funny bone hitting proportion ran through his system and he let out a howl of pain. Alexa turned around and hugged his neck. "'S ok, Sparky. You can come home with me."
Beast Boy rolled his eyes.
"Alexa, come here sweety! Time to go home!" Alexa ran towards two adults, a blonde woman and brunette man, both with the same deep brown eyes as their daughter. Beast Boy held back a sigh and trotted behind her.
She stopped in front of them and Beast Boy sat a foot behind her, switching on his cute eyes and pouty lips. The only person they didn't work on was Raven, but even she couldn't turn away forever. "I found a puppy! His name's Sparky, can I keep him?"
Her parents exchanged glances, the mother getting on one knee and touching her daughter's shoulder. "Honey, we don't have time to train another pet."
Alexa's eyes watered, "but mama! He is trained!" She turned to Beast Boy. "Aren't you?"
'You've got to be kidding me.' He stood up and wagged his tail, letting out a deep bark. 'Least my voice changed.'
…
"Time for dinner, Sparky!" Beast Boy rolled over onto his back, staring at the ceiling. His bed was an old blue pillow that was stitched so many times a wolverine could not rip through it. Next to him, on a noticeably newer pillow, was a Welsh terrier. She was barely 15 inches long with a rectangular head and small, beady eyes, and she was obviously also named by the girl, going by the alias 'Skull.' Beast Boy predicted that he could probably eat her in two bites. Vegetarian or not, dog food had to be the most disgusting stuff his tongue had ever tasted. Except for Starfire's crappy pudding of sadness or whatever she called it.
"SPARKY!" Oh yeah, that was his new name. Beast Boy stood up and trotted into the kitchen, his feet scraping on the linoleum floor. Alexa stood by the refrigerator, a dish of dog food between her feet. She stroked Beast Boy on the head, beaming at her new pet. "Good boy."
He looked at the bowl and then back to his new 'owner.' An eyebrow raised in annoyance. 'I am NOT eating that.'
Alexa flicked Beast Boy's nose, startling him. "Sparky! Eat, or you'll starve and die!"
'I'd rather eat Skull.' But, not in the mood to starve, Beast Boy slowly bent his head down and took a few pieces into his mouth. He unhurriedly chewed, thinking about Starfire's pudding.
"Good boy." Alexa passed him and skipped out of the room, humming a made-up tune. Beast Boy smirked and glared at the food. 'Time for another practical joke.'
…
Alexa sat down at the table and bent her head down for evening prayer. Her mother sat to her left, her father to her right, while Beast Boy, aka 'Sparky,' and Skull lay under the small table in hopes of getting to eat some real food.
The prayer was finished and lids were lifted off of the plates, followed by a piercing scream from Alexa.
"DADDY!"
Brown, soggy, smelly, rock-hard dog food, with added meat flavoring, along with two dog biscuits and a pig's ear chew covered her plate. On the side was a glass of toilet water.
The father stood up, scratching his head while his wife comforted Alexa. "What in the…?"
…
Beast Boy trotted into Alexa's room, which quickly engulfed him in stuffed animals and an amazing variety of pink. He hopped onto the bed and turned a few circles before slumping onto the white feather pillow.
Alexa walked in wearing Power Puff pajamas and dragging an old blue pillow behind her. "SPARKY!" She dropped the pillow and pointed at it. "You sleep here! You're pillow!" Beast Boy lifted his head and cocked it to the side, looking baffled. "Now, Sparky!" He slowly stood up on all fours, stretched his back, and jumped onto the pillow. Alexa gave him a pat on the head, "good boy."
Beast Boy watched as she trekked out of the room before jumping on the bed again. He bit a corner of the pillow and flung it over his head before returning to the floor. He captured his blue pillow within his jaws and bounded back onto the bed before laying down.
Alexa returned to find her pillow on the floor next to a blanket with Beast Boy and Skull sleeping blissfully on her bed. A breath was inhaled before- "DADDY!"
…
A ruined couch, eaten television remote, throw-up stain on the living room carpet, and three runaway attempts later Alexa's father was driving around the city posting 'lost dog' signs everywhere. A picture of Beast Boy with said destroyed remote in mouth was in the center, underneath was a short caption reading 'dog found in park, hound, green fur, sharp teeth, demon.'
He pulled out another poster and began plastering it to the side of the Vege-Mart when a teen with a flowing purple cape walked up to him. "Sorry to bother you, sir, but I believe you have my… dog."
He turned to face the speaker and let out a sigh of relief. "Thank God! You're dog has been destroying my life!"
Raven blinked. "Uh… yeah… he has a tendency to do that on occasion."
…
Beast Boy and Skull sprinted to the front door as it opened, waiting to see who had arrived. Alexa's father (AN: I probably should've given that guy a name…) stood in front of the door, Robin and Raven behind him. Beast Boy jumped onto Raven, wagging his tail, before biting Robin in the ankle.
"OW!"
'That's for leaving me in the sandbox!'
The father turned to them and opened the door. "Forgive me for rushing you, but you have to understand…"
Raven held up a hand. "Believe me, I do." The three titans headed for the car, Robin in the driver's seat, Starfire next to him, and Raven in the back. Beast Boy got ready to hop in when Alexa came dashing out of the house.
"SPARKY! I LOVE YOU!" Beast Boy was tacked to the ground in a fierce hug until Alexa was lifted off of him, tears streaming down her face. "SPARKY!!!"
Beast Boy jumped into the car and lay down next to Raven, putting his head on her lap.
She looked down at him, meeting his eyes, and raised an eyebrow. A few seconds passed and Beast Boy wondered if he'd get away with it. "…You're spoiled."
…
Ok, longest chapter to date. I think it has it's strong points and weak points, but overall it balances itself out to average. Or something. Since I've gone over my usual 1000 word mark as is, time for some over-due shout outs to the reviewers.
Dragonmaster01: once again thank you for the idea, I hope it was decent. You have a lot of good ideas floating around in your head, I can tell.
Alys: you are an author that I have put on a pedestal exceedingly higher than myself, I can't wait to read more of your work.
AerinM: you're right, it is spelled onomatopoeia, how the hell did you know that? I think I asked everyone in this house. I'm the youngest, you'd think someone in here is smarter than me.
Holly: I get a lot of ideas from your reviews, actually, and I am proud to see that you're one of the few people that has a healthy amount of randomness to them, too many people follow rules and stuff, what losers.
Leviathan680: I'm not much of a writer, either, but I like to throw towels at people and jump in rings or something… my best advise is to write for yourself, that's what I do.
Ocdsugar: You are bad for my ego, you're review definitely had me soaring for awhile, until my sister popped my bubble. On a different note, I always like Pacey better than Dawson.
