Chapter 2~ Surprise, surprise!
Raven sat in the lotus position, chanting and thinking. She was at the bottom of the pool on the roof, surrounded by a bubble of black energy. Azarath, Metrion, Zinthos… Okay, let's see… My cousins are coming to Gotham for some strange reason, and the Tower is going to be on fire sometime. This is all very confusing… It's Thursday, and they said they are coming on Friday. And what is with them saying I have a
'problem'? Just because I can't express emotions as easily as all the others doesn't mean it's a problem! A faint sound of an alarm broke her concentration. Raven flew out of the pool, ready to grab the first fire extinguisher she could find. Instead, she heard The Boy Wonder's voice.
"TITANS! TROUBLE!"
Raven ran to the control room. Everyone was there, looking at the giant screen. Three teens, one with crazy pink hair, a really short one with a spider-like thing on his back, and a huge guy that looked like some hairy prehistoric animal, were causing trouble in the city.
"Looks like the H.I.V.E. has struck again." Robin said, zooming in on the scene. "Alright, then! Titans! Move out!"
*********
"Bwahahahahahaha! Nothing like A fresh batch of turmoil in the morning!" The little annoying H.I.V.E. member named Gizmo laughed.
"Actually, I prefer a fresh cup of kick-ass!" Robin's voice echoed from somewhere the H.I.V.E. students couldn't see.
"A cup of kick-ass? That doesn't even make sen—" Before Gizmo could finish, Robin jumped down and kicked him in the face.
"Honestly, Robin. I think your one-liners are getting lamer and lamer." Said the pink haired one named Jinx. She charged up a disruption wave, and shot it at Robin. Starfire swooped in, and picked up the 4 foot tall one who smelled like cheap hair gel. She dropped him near the others, and flew back. The Tameranian girl stopped right in front of her.
"Please refrain from making fun of Robin's single-lines and destroying the town, as it angers me." Ol Pinky busted up laughing.
"Hahahahaha! What, did we offend your widdle Robbie-poo?" she said in between laughing. Starfire's eyes glowed green and she shot two energy blasts at Jinx, and her hair caught on fire.
"Do not EVER say that! Only the evil feline-like one calls him that!" Jinx started running around in circles, screaming 'My hair! MY HAIR! My beautiful pink hair is on fire!' mixed with a couple choice words mumbled under her breath. Meanwhile, Terra was dealing with Mammoth.
"C'mon, big boy, is that the best you got?" She said, riding a chunk of rock. Mammoth roared, beat his chest, and ran towards her. Terra stopped, and started laughing. The giant was jumping up and down trying to reach her, causing the earth to shake.
"Aw, come on! Jump for it!" she teased. "Huh? Where'd he go?" Mammoth was no longer there. He was on top of a building, holding one of those mini water tower things.
"Heh, heh, heh…" He laughed and threw it.
"Uh-oh!" She said. Using her powers, she lifted up chunks of pavement and deflected the tank.
***
"Azarath, Metrion, Zinthos!" Raven shouted, and sent 10 trashcans flying at Gizmo. He pressed a button, and a little mini robot with a giant magnet on it came whizzing out around the corner, and attracted all the trashcans at it.
"Ha ha! You can't defeat me, ya scuz munchin' phlemball!"
Damn it! Raven thought.
All of a sudden, she heard something whizzing toward her. She turned around and saw a rocket coming straight at her. It was going too fast and she didn't have enough time to use her powers to deflect it back or even move out of the way! Raven put up her arms defensively, bracing for impact. And then, the rocket… stopped. Just stopped. In fact, everything around her was stopped. The other titans as well as the H.I.V.E. members had stopped. The atmosphere, the buildings, everything had kind of a bluish tint, and the air was shimmering, wavy-like. After looking around in front of her in confusion, she stopped and smiled. (Which is kinda rare for Raven. It's a surprise nothing blew up! He he he)
Oswin. Raven turned around, and saw 4 cloaked figures, floating in the air. One with light-blue hair and a long braid draped over his shoulder in a hooded black cloak was out in front, holding out his palm towards the rocket. The boy's eyes were glowing blue, and a little glowing pendant was floating out in front of him. Raven redirected the missile towards Gizmo, and gave an OK signal. The boy put down his arm, and at the same time, his eyes changed back to normal, even though he still had blue eyes. The pendant dropped back onto his chest, the air no longer shimmered and lost its bluish tint.
"Heh heh heh…" Gizmo laughed evilly, unaware of what just happened. When the rocket came zooming towards him, he looked up in surprise, and it exploded right in front of him. After the annoying shrimp was vanquished, the other cloaked figures (who are Raven's cousins for those who haven't figured that out yet) flew off to help the rest of the titans. Raven floated down to the ground and so did Oswin. She pulled off her hood, and then put her hands on her hips.
"Took you long enough." She said.
"Don't be silly! We're a day early!" He laughed, and walked up to give her a hug. She blushed and then said,
"Oswin, stop it! Don't embarrass me in front of my adversaries! Now, come on!" Raven then flew off to find her comrades. Oswin flew after her, calling,
"Well, excuse me for being happy to see you!"
Beast Boy changed into a falcon and flew at Mammoth. Mammoth swung a giant arm at him, and knocked him out of the sky. A rock pillar with Cyborg and Terra on it came at them, and Cyborg shot a sonic blast at him. He caught him off guard, and knocked him off of the building. Or so he thought. Mammoth jumped off the edge of the building he had been holding on to, launching straight for their rock pillar. He jumped too low, and ended up punching the middle of it, crumbling it to pieces. Cyborg and Terra jumped off towards the nearest building. Mammoth, using his ability to never fall to the ground (at least that's what's been happening so far…) swam through the air by grabbing falling rocks, made it to another building and swung up from a pole onto the rooftop. Everyone clapped.
"Amazing!" Terra said sarcastically. Beast Boy held up a sign that read "10.0".
"Uh-oh…" he said, as Mammoth became very enraged. Mammoth jumped to their building (He should be called the amazing flying Buff-Dude instead of Mammoth!). They all separated and ducked out of the way as he came charging at them. Then all of a sudden, he stopped, and began punching the air, wildly. Beast Boy waved his arms.
"Umm… Dude… we're over here… HELLO?!"
Suddenly, a figure with a red cloak and a hood pulled over their head appeared in front of Mammoth. Mammoth lunged for him, and the figure simply pulled back—er, in his case, floated back. He kept going, punching at the stranger, and he kept floating back until the red-cloaked wonder stopped. Mammoth frowned for a second, and then yelled out as the ground beneath him disappeared and he plummeted down to the ground.
"Curse you snacks! CURSE YOU!!!!!" Mammoth yelled.
"Ookay then…" Terra commented. Cyborg walked up to the One who wears strange red clothing.
"Who are you, and what did you DO?" He asked. Raven's cousin replied by taking off his hood and bowing.
"I am Peter, Illusionist of Castle Alkanos. Glad to be of service." Said Peter. Terra appeared next to him suddenly and her eyes got all googly like Starfire and Raven's did when they met Aqua Lad. Beast Boy quickly pulled her away from him, steaming.
"Oh, you must be one of Raven's cousins. I'm Cyborg." Said Cyborg, putting out his hand for him to shake. Peter took Cyborg's hand and shook it.
"Well met, um… Cyborg." He said. Cyborg walked back over to his friends.
"Who is that?" Beast Boy asked.
"That's home-dawg from Albuquerque."
Meanwhile…
Jinx shot dozens of disruption waves at Robin, angrily, while her hair smoked. Robin threw a disk that put up an energy forcefield, blocking her attacks. He ducked behind her and tried to hit her with his Bo(w?) stick. Jinx rolled under his legs and blasted him with a massive wave, sending him flying towards a brick wall. Starfire came towards Jinx, and shot a starbolt at the ground beneath her, exploding chunks right in her face. Jinx's eyes glowed pink and a tree toppled over and came crashing down on Starfire. Suddenly lightning struck the tree and burnt it to a crisp. A girl with short, brown hair in a dark green cloak was floating above and behind it, with both arms extended towards where the tree was. Jinx and Robin were in the middle of intense had-to-hand combat. Another girl, this time with long black hair and two purple braids in a purple cloak flew up behind them. She clapped her hands together and a wave pulsated outwards. Suddenly, a statue of a man on a horse that had been around the corner came galloping up and rammed into Jinx, sending her flying. The statue went back to where it was, the girl clapped her hands again, and it immobilized. She walked up to Robin and shook his hand.
"I'm Claire."
"Hi, I'm Robin." The other girl shook Starfire's hand and introduced herself as Mona. The others came flying, running, and galloping to them.
"Let's go back to the Tower and order some pizza." Robin said.
