I don't own Teen Titans. Never had or will.
It was a beautiful day. Sunshine, a cool breeze, and…
"Ten pounds of ribs! My all-time record!"
Cyborg dug into his huge plate of ribs, while the rest of the Titans just watched. Robin looked at Beast Boy. "Ten bucks he can't finish'em."
"You're on!"
As Cyborg dug into his massive plate of ribs, Raven sighed and retreated to a shady tree to think. Robin and B.B. watched in awe as Cyborg devoured rib after rib, never stopping once for any reason, except to breath. "How can he possibly survive eating those things? It's impossible!" Robin exclaimed. BB just glowered at Cyborg. "Animal eater."
Starfire was walking around, her face lit up in a huge smile as she sucked some mustard through a straw. Robin's eye started to twitch. "Um… Star, what did we say about the mustard thing?"
Starfire stopped, and looked at Robin. "I do not understand why eating this yellow substance is so strange in public, when it tastes so good!"
Robin just stood there, twitching. Cyborg shuddered, and resumed eating his ribs.
"Who wants to play some-"
Suddenly, the air was shattered with the sound of an enormous explosion. The Titans stumbled, and a huge cloud of dust appeared in the air above them. A streak of light shot out of it, and crashed into the ground at an incredible force, plowing through about 30 feet of soil.
As the dust settled, a shape appeared and heaved itself out of the huge trench made a few seconds ago. It was a boy, no older than any of the Titans, with long black hair, a red trench coat, a black shirt and pants, and a sword. The weapon in his hand was like no other- one part of the hilt was an angel wing, the other a bats wing. He got up, his coat rumpled and covered with dirt. His eyes flashed red, as they glared up into the sky at a huge robot. It resembled Cyborg in the fact that it had semi-exposed circuitry all over its body, but the resemblance ended there. The eyes glowed red, and it raised one of its four massive arms, all of which were loaded for bear- and then some.
A hatch opened up, and a missile shot out towards the mysterious youth. He launched into the air, and cleanly sliced the projectile in half before it exploded. Lasers shot out from another arm, and bullets sprayed from a third. The fourth sent the fist out like a huge wreaking ball. In one flash of light, the fist was disconnected from its chain and sailed through the air freely. The youth continued towards the robot, neatly slicing it into pieces while evading all of the missiles, lasers, and bullets.
Except one.
A bullet tore through his shoulder, knocking him back. He fell to the ground, grunting in pain. He grasped the shoulder, trying to stem the flow of blood. But it kept oozing from the wound, having an obvious effect on the stranger. BB winced. "I guess this is when we go help him, right?"
Everyone nodded. "Right." They ran towards the boy, hoping he would be all right. He staggered towards them, then collapsed onto the ground, panting into unconsciousness.
:Back at the Tower:
"Is he going to be all right?"
Raven looked up at Robin. "He'll live. It'll leave a scar, but other than that, he will recover."
The team looked at the kid lying on the medical table. They almost never had to use this area of the tower, but it was there for emergencies. "How are his readings?"
Cyborg looked at the graphs and charts shown on the screens around the room. "Pulse is stable, breathing is normal, but you'd better come take a look at his brainwaves. They're off the scale."
The group huddled around a monitor. The graph was wild, always changing from one point to the next. "I can only guess from this, but he appears to have telekinetic powers."
The crew huddled even closer. "Raven, your arm is in my eye." BB said. "Deal with it."
"This is strange. Why was he running from that robot? You think it could have been because of that power you say he has?"
Cyborg nodded. "Probably. That would make sense to me."
BB turned into a dog, yawned, then changed back."I dunno about you guys, but I'm turning in. I'm beat." Robin nodded. Yeah, it's kinda late. But we need someone to watch over Mr. Mysterious here. And it's not gonna be me."
Starfire spoke. "I will stay and watch over him. I am not tired, so I will stay."
Everyone just shrugged. "Thanks, Star. See you in the morning."
After everyone left, Starfire turned towards the boy and brushed some of the hair away from his eyes. She looked at his face, wondering what could possibly have put this young man in such danger. As she turned away to get a drink, she heard a slight laugh.
"Well, if I didn't know any better, I'd have said I died and went to Heaven."
