Hello anyone who is reading this. This is my first Teen Titans fanfic. Don't freak about any pairings or anything. I wrote it how I wanted it. Criticize me all you want but try to give tips. I wrote it in a sort of third person dealy, as it rotates from person to person. Enjoy the Story. That was the original note. I am reposting the story, mainly because screwed me over and deleted my account. So please read and review, I need reviews again.
"A" is talking. 'A' is thoughts. ""A"" Music lyrics. Got it? Good.
Disclaimer: I do not own Teen Titans.
A New Arrival
Chapter 1: The Arrival
For the Titans it was a fairly routine night. Beast Boy and Cyborg sat on the couch, mashing buttons furiously as they played F-Zero. The two would occasionally shove each other in an attempt to screw up the other player. Cyborg, with his immense weight, had the easy advantage. Meanwhile, Starfire and Robin were sitting on the edge of the couch, talking away. They both were wearing grins and laughing with each other every few minutes. On the other side of the room, Raven was in her own seat, writing in a large notebook quietly, a look of concentration on her face.
Two weeks prior, the Titans had been involved in a very difficult and emotional battle. Terra, supposedly their trustworthy friend, had betrayed them. Slade had managed to create a perfect plan. He taught Terra to use her powers perfectly, as long as she was willing to be his apprentice. Terra agreed, wanting desperately to be in control of her abilities. After helping demolish Titans Tower, Terra completely left the team. Soon after, she came back to fight. She managed to take out every Titan, one by one, and sealed them underground. But the Titans struck back, defeating Terra and the rest of Slade's minions. In the end though, with Slade still attacking, Terra sacrificed herself to stop him. In doing so, she possibly destroyed Slade, and more importantly, she redeemed her image to the Titans.
"Oh yeah! I gotcha now BB!" Cyborg yelled at his green friend as his car zoomed passed Beast Boy's.
The short changeling grinned and raised his finger to a button. Beast Boy grinned devilishly and pressed it. "Not if I can help it!" he yelled as his car launched forward with turbo speed. Cyborg veered in the way, and the two watched as Beast Boy's vehicle plummeted off the edge in a burst of flame.
"No way!" Beast Boy exclaimed as his side of the screen flashed "YOU LOSE!" Cyborg jumped up into the air and started a little jig.
"Who's your daddy!?" He shouted as he finished the dance, jumping in front of Beast Boy.
"I think that you can only win by using cheap moves like that!" Beast Boy retorted.
"That was a fair race! You never win any games against me!" Cyborg shot back and got up into Beast Boy's face.
"DO TOO!"
"DO NOT!"
The two teammates began to wrestle around, Beast Boy in gorilla form to make it easier.
"Why can't they just get along sometimes?" Robin mumbled to himself. He stood up and walked over to the boys rolling on the ground.
"I think you should stop them now, Robin," Starfire suggested. Robin nodded before turning off the game station. Both of the wrestlers froze on the ground.
"What'd you do that for?" Beast Boy yelled at Robin.
"I think that you two should give video games a rest for a little bit," The Boy Wonder suggested.
The gamers mouths dropped open. "You're crazy," Cyborg said.
"It is Friday, how about a movie?" Robin added. Cyborg and Beast Boy calmed down at that.
"As long as it's a comedy," Beast Boy said.
"There is no way we're watching another one of your movies, we watched one last time!" Cyborg said angrily, and the fight started all over again.
Meanwhile, Raven had closed her notebook loudly and stood up. The noise was starting to annoy her. She glanced down at her writing, satisfied that she had finished three new and rather dark poems. She was going out to read them at her favorite poetry place, which was open fairly late.
"How about we let Raven choose?" Robin suggested, remembering that the local goth rarely chose the film.
"Yes! A horror picture would be wonderful on a night like this!" Starfire yelled happily as she glanced outside at the rain. The team looked over where Raven was only to find her seat empty and her book gone.
"I'm going out," came a dry monotone voice from the door. Raven had drawn her hood up and was awaiting the elevator to reach the top floor.
"Friend Raven, do you not wish to join us in the ritual of Friday night movie viewing?" Starfire asked nicely. Raven looked over at her and felt a ping of guilt at the alien's happy grin.
"Maybe another time guys, I'll be back in about an hour or-" She paused at a noise. "Someone's coming..." Raven trailed off.
The elevator had reached the top floor and Raven sensed someone new. The doors opened and she took a few steps back, a mild look of shock on her face. The rest of the Titans grouped around her, looked inside the elevator, and gasped.
So... What'd you think? Like the sort of cliffhanger thing I put there? Hope so. I plan on making the chapters and all much longer after this one. This is just a warm-up, ya know? R/R if you wish to. More reviews, quicker the updates I guess. Just review, I need reviews again because of blasted fanfiction!
Next Chapter: The mysterious stranger influences the Titans to let them stay. But this persons past is unknown and none of the Titans are sure of what to believe. But will they trust the stranger?
Enjoy
