Finally, I can start writing this. I have a cold by the way, so sorry if it's not as good as the 1st chapter. Enjoy.
Blaze stepped into the lobby, his face full of wonder and delight. "Nice place you've got here..." "Yeah, uh, lets head to the living room. I'll introduce you to the other Titans."
They walked through the hallway branching off of the right side of the lobby. Robin still had something on his mind, though. "Well, if you're going to be on this team, what exactly can you do that other people can't?" "I can breathe fire." Robin stopped walking, causing Blaze, who was behind him, to also stop. "How much experience do you have with your power?" inquired Robin seriously. "Oh, gosh. I can't even remember how long. I was born with the ability, so I can use it quite well. Also, when I was only 9 years old, I trained in martial arts, making me a more aerobic person." There was a long pause. Blaze decided to break the ice. "Is there a problem?" "No," said Robin. "I just don't want anyone on the team with little experience with their powers. I used to know a girl who couldn't control her own. It's not a good thing. But, it sounds like you've got plenty of practice with your fire breath, so you'll be fine." Robin began walking again, and Blaze followed silently until they reached the living room.
Robin spoke up to get everyone's attention. "Hey guys! Say hello to Blaze. He may become a member of Teen Titans." Everyone was looking at Blaze now. Raven, wearing her usual "I don't care" look, asked, "So...what makes you so special?" "You mean my power? Fire breath." "Whoa!" exclaimed Beast Boy. "That's awesome!" added Cyborg. Starfire seemed interested in him. "Where do you come from, Blaze?" she asked him. "Nowhere, really," replied Blaze. "I'm just kind of a drifter. My parents died when I was 4, and didn't have any relatives left. I pretty much grew up by myself, with no real place no call home. As for learning martial arts at the age of 9, I would stand outside of a martial arts building and watch people through the window, and pretty much did what they did. Once I learned the basics, I took it upon myself to train more in martial arts. Once I drifted into this city and heard about you guys, I decided to try to join. It would give me a home, and it would let me be around others that are "gifted."
A long silenced followed. "Soooo....." Robin said as he looked over at Blaze. "you've been pretty much roughing it up until now?" "Pretty much," he said, looking at Robin. "Dude, it would be so awesome if you joined the team, wouldn't it guys?" "Certainly!" said Starfire. Cyborg nodded his head. Raven just said, "Whatever."
Robin told him that he was welcome to join, but he'd like to see a demonstration of his abilities first. The team and Blaze headed over to the training gym. Blaze was asked by Robin to destroy all of the targets as fast as he could. As soon as targets emerged from the floor, Blaze went to work. The Titans all stood and watched in amazement as he flipped, punched and kicked, and blew fire. Within 1 minute, all 50 targets were either in pieces or black and crispy.
Blaze was breathing hard as he walked over to the team. "How...did...I...do...?" he managed to say between pants. Robin pulled out a new round communicator out of his pocket, extending it out to Blaze. "Welcome to the team." "Woohoo!!" yelled Cyborg. "Way to go!" "Congrats!" said Beast Boy, shaking Blaze's hand. Even Raven was smiling now. "Good job," she said quietly and clearly. Starfire ran over with a huge smile and gave him an enormous hug. "Welcome, new friend!" she said cheerfully. "Finally, a place I can call home..."
The End of Chapter 2! How was it? Review now! I'm going to bed, hopefully I won't wake up with this cold...Chapter 3 is on the way, so stay tuned.
