Title: City of Dragons
Summary: Sequel to Some lost more gained. Amy and the titans are trying to solve Amy's mysterious past…and what's up with Aiden's hair?
Author: Silverflare07
Dedication: To Aiden since we're writing this story together.
Author's notes: Ok this isn't a Mary Sue fic. I personally don't believe in placing any real person from a show with an OC (unless they don't have anybody in the show like Cy) but I'll continue the Raven/OC thing because that was started before. By the way Aiden belongs to Titan6. Amy belongs to both of us. Tir na nOg belongs to the Young Wizards series.
Extra Info: You really should read Some Lost More Gained before you read this. Check out Titan6's profile for it. But incase you decide to be lazy (no shame there!) Here's a brief: The Titan's get a new member, Aiden, who's powers are sort of like Ravens. He and Raven fall in love and the first story ends happily ever after. The second starts after Terra's betrayal. Aiden's powers are going haywire and he's invited his new friend Amy Jade to take Terra's place on the team. The titans, minus Beast Boy, think she's a great teammate. Her powers are to borrow other's powers (it's hard to explain) but in the end Aiden's powers are back under control and he can make a spirit dragon who announces Amy's real name, Amythest Jade. Amy has an unusual connection with the dragon.

Chapter 6The rest of the night past peacefully and gave way to the beginnings of dawn. The sunlight reached through the trees and tickled the faces of the four sleeping occupants.
Aiden blinked and woke up. He stretched and looked around at his sleeping friends.
"You fell asleep on guard duty."
He whipped around to see Amy sitting up and stretching. He blushed and nodded, embarrassed at being caught. "My bad."
She shook her head and laughed. "Yeah your bad." She turned over and shook Beast Boy awake. "Beast Boy wakey wakey!"
He grumbled and swatted her hand away. She grinned. "Fine if that's the way you want it." She held up her right hand and made it intangible then stuck it right through Beast Boy's stomach.
"AH!" He bolted up. "COLD!
She laughed and pulled her hand out. "I had to wake you up somehow."
He shuddered. "That felt so...wrong."
"Of course it did. She just stuck her hand through you." Raven was up too.
"Wait a minute..." Aiden looked confused. "I thought that was ghosts..."
"Ghosts and me." Amy said.
"But...how did you know it was going to be so cold?" Beast Boy asked.
She shrugged. "I didn't. I was just gonna give something a gentle tug. Tell me that wouldn't have woken you up."
"A GENTLE TUG! You could have pulled something important!"
"Fine next time I'll just shove a disco ball up your –"
"Okay guys!" Aiden cut her off. "Let's get going."
Amy smiled and helped Beast Boy stand up. "You da boss!" She saluted.
"You watch to much Kids Next Door." Aiden shook his head.
Her response was to simply stick her tongue out at him.
"Right...can we go now?" Raven asked tapping her foot impatiently.
"Don't we get breakfast?" Beast Boy whined.
"Here." Amy threw him something.
He held up his hand and caught it with ease. "A tofu energy bar! Cool!" He tore open the wrapper and inhaled it.
"Anyone else want one?" Amy held up two other bars.
"No tofu thanks."
"I have Snickers energy bars here not tofu."
"I'll take on." Aiden caught the one he was tossed.
Raven simply used her powers to bring the bar to her. "No can we get going?"

They walked until about lunchtime, the forest growing thinner with every step. Finally they broke through into a clearing. Amy gasped.
It was the remains of what had obviously been an ancient city. There was no grass, almost like it had been burnt to the ground. The few buildings that were left were crumbling to the ground. The lake with a large waterfall however seemed to be fine.
"Whoa...it looks like a war zone..." Aiden' stared with wide eyes.
"I...I think it was." Amy said silently.
"This is something you're parents never told us about."
"Maybe my parents didn't know. Either way we came here for nothing."
"Let's look around a little bit. Maybe we'll find somebody still here." Raven said examining the closet building ruins.
The other nodded. And Aide and Beast Boy head off towards the town. Amy however found her self being pulled towards the lake, and the waterfall. She stepped up to the edge of the lake and found stepping-stones that lead up the waterfall. Pulled by some unknown force, some gut instinct, she slowly made her way towards the waterfall.
"Amy what are you doing?" Beast Boy called out.
She ignored her friends and kept walking. She reached the one that stood directly before the waterfall and reached out to put her hand in the water. But instead of wetting her hand the waterfall slowly parted leaving a small way for a person to enter.
"Whoa..." Raven, Aiden, and Beast Boy watched from shore. Beast Boy jumped on the first stone and followed Amy's path. Behind him Aiden shrugged, grabbed Raven's hand and followed.
One by one she let her friends walk through before stepping in herself. As soon as she was on the other side the waterfall came together again with a whoosh! She joined the others at the ledge of the rock they were standing on and gawked.
Below them was a busy city. It was huge and people were coming in and out of buildings. Children were swimming the small pools of water or running around. Some even had a game of ball going on. And sitting above the city was a giant building that looked considerably more important then the others.
"I...I...I think we found it." Amy could hardly speak.
"Yeah. I think we did." Beside her Beast Boy nodded.
"HALT!"
The four friends whipped around to see a guard running towards them. His weapon didn't look to advanced but it looked like it would hurt. He stopped in front of them and glared.
"What business do you have here in Tir na nOg?"
They all spoke at once. The guard raised an eyebrow. "A likely story. Come with me. I'm taking you to see our leader he'll know what to do with you."
He jabbed his spear at them and they obeyed and quickly walked down the stone path, closely followed by the guard. After a few minutes of walking Amy noticed where they were headed. They were going to the important looking building that sat high above the others.
She gulped...they were in for it now.
