Chapter 2: The Audition
While Katie is having her little situation at her house, the Teen Titans are having their own situation. But this one didn't include a TV commercial. It included the superhero wannabe's who saw the commercial.
"Okay Beastboy," said Robin in a bored tone. "It's your turn to start off the next wannabe-er I mean- 'super hero'.
"Fine," said Beastboy annoyed. He looked down at the clipboard, and then up at the auditioning hero. "Name" He drawled.
"Um, Meat Dude." Said a chubby 15-year-old nervously.
Beastboy scoffed at his pathetic name. "We'll be sure to call you if we ever want a 'dude' with a name that disgraces vegetarians everywhere. Next!" There was silence as "Meat Dude" left the room. "NEXT!" he shouted again.
"Well, I guess we're done here!" said Cyborg standing up. "I told you guys this audition thing was a stupid idea!"
"WAIT!" A voice called. "Wait! I'm here!" A girl ran in the room and skidded to a stop in front of them. She was wearing normal jeans and a normal T-shirt. The only thing that wasn't perfectly normal about here was the fact that she was wearing a pair of brown gloves. But lots of people wore gloves. The Teen Titans just thought it was a fad, or she had some sort of a skin condition.
Cyborg sighed and plopped back down on the sofa. He was really hoping that this nightmare called "auditions" would be over. Robin, however, was leaning over in great interest. This was the only person who hadn't come in dressed up in a funky costume.
"Okay," said Robin. "Name, age, and powers please." He didn't sound bored anymore, but quite interested.
The girl took a deep breath. "My name is Shadow, I'm 15, I can walk through any solid object except Titanium Sulfrite, and if I touch someone with my bare skin, I can either knock them out cold, or read all of their thoughts." She took another deep breath and looked up at the Teen Titans for their answer.
"You're the only person today to actually have some sort of powers." Raven said.
"Really?" She sounded surprised.
Starfire stood up. "Can you show us your powers? We would love to see them!"
All of a sudden Shadow fell through the floor, and came back up a few seconds later and was floating in midair. They were all staring at her like, 'You can FLY too??'
It was Robins turn to stand up now. "Well, seeing as no one else was this impressive- well, actually, not impressive at all- we want to see you here at noon tomorrow for your first test. There will be five tests in all."
Shadow looked relieved and happy. "Thanks. I'll be here." And with that, Shadow walked out of the room without another word, leaving the Teen Titans with their mouths hanging open in awe.
