"DUDE!! This table's huge!!!" Beast Boy exclaimed when he sat down next to Terra, and across from Iris. Terra looked across the table at a newly healed Stella, smirking, and they giggled silently at Beast Boy's facination at the size of their table.
Krys sat down on the other side of BB, and Robin sat next to her, across from Krysta, Raven, Starfire and Cyborg. Brian and tristan sat at the ends of the table.
"What're we having?" Cyborg said, his stomach growling furiously.
"Spaghetti. Meat sauce and non meat sauce and meatballs…." Krys said, staring at the table, slightly slumped in her chair. Her wounds had been healed, but she had cracked her back and had a bit of bad posture now, but that'd go away in a while.
Krys served the food and everybody ate and talked for about 15 minutes. After that, Stella and Terra cleard the table, and Robin brought up his proposition.
"How would you mind if we stayed here for a while? If you went on tour, you'd have us as security guards, and it's be beneficial for both of us. We'd find Slade eventually, and you'd be protected from him. Your family would be safer. If he himself comes, you'd have no chance on your own." Robin said. "What do you think? We'd team up almost. We can have some other people monitor the city while we're gone, it'd be no problem."
Brian looked at Krys, who nodded at Tristan.
"Okay. You can stay here, we have plenty of rooms. Some might suit your tastes….Raven might enjoy being in the room next to Iris, her and all her dark ways." Brian smirked.
"So I see." Raven said, half amused.
"Just
don't wake me up during the day…..I bite…." She smirked back
at Brian.
"Yes Iris, we all know…." Brian said, as if he was
hearing an old joke for the 5000th time, rolling his eyes
"All know what?" Robin said.
"Aha! We have to tell you about ourselves! Can I go first????!!!?!?!!?!?!??" Stella perked up a sizable amount.
"Sure, whatever…." Krysta said.
"I'm Stella, I control wind and air and water, and I'm getting on to fire… just like Terra…." She said. "I'm 17, Terra's twin, and I play the electric violin and keyboard." Stella looked exactly like terra, minus clothes and eyes, hers were green.
"I'm Krysta, I'm 13, I don't know what I control, but I'm an empath, and I can play the keyboard and guitar and I sing…sometimes…" Krysta had brown hair, and there were blonde highlights in it. Her eyes were a sparkling blue.
"Don't we all????" Terra burst out laughing.
"Yeah, but I'm the prettiest singer…I have the loveliest voice…" She retorted.
"You keep thinking that Krysta, you keep thinking that….." Stella smirked.
The TT watched as the rest of the Family introduced themselves.
'So this is why Slade wants them. For there powers. I wonder…' Robin thought.
"Have any of you guys ever had an attemp at kidnapping you?" Robin asked.
"Um….Yeah.,.Everybody has, except Iris, has been, but he's been sending attempts for krysta a lot. He figures she must have a special power because we all have ours, I guess." Krys said, kind of uncomfortably.
"Sorry if it was an od subject, I was just curious." Robin said. "Continue."
"I control…..death. The night, basically. And stars. They're cool….. I'm Kali. I'm 16, I play guitar, keyboard, and drums." Kali said. She had obviously dyed black hair with red tips. Her eyes were an amazing mixture of blue and green, with flecks of black. She was about 5"1' or so.
"I'm 'the twin'. My name is Keri. I have the same powers of Kali, except it's angelic-" Keri got cut off.
"You sure don't act that way." Tristan snorted.
"almost." Keri finished her sentence, glaring daggers at tristan. "We're 'fallen angels' per say…..I'm 16 too." Keri said. Her hair was brown, with metallic blue streaks, and her eyes were a beautiful shade of blue.
"I am Brian. I'm a cat demon. Only half. So is krys, but she's got more power than me." Brian said. His hair was brown, with a few small blonde streaks, and he too had blue eyes. "I'm 21. I play electric guitar and normal guitar, and drums for the band Apocolypse Yesterday."
"I am Krys, as you all already know. I am 20, and I am the singer of Apocolypse Yesterday. I am half cat-demon, yes, and I can change into every kind of cat there is. Well, every species. But not house cats. Then I'm a tabby…." Krys had blue eyes, and brown streaked blonde hair. "I sing for the band Apocolypse Yesterday, and I play keyboard. Sometimes."
"Dude. Your family…is unique…..really really unique. It's like, perfect." Cyborg stuttered out.
"You all forgot about me and Tristan." Iris said from her chair.
"Oh we are sorry um, friend, um, Iris. Please. Tell us about your and Tristan's history." Starfire said.
"I am Iris. I bite. Period." Iris said exanimatedly.
"Ignore her, she's a little grumpy." Tristan looked at Brian.
"What?!? I only put her back to bed!! She was the one who woke up!!!!"
Brian said, defending himself.
"Anyways, Iris is a little grumpy when she is in her day of sleep, which is today, which is Sunday. She sleeps Sundays, only Sundays." Tristan said. "I sleep Sundays too, but don't need to anymore.."
The teent titans were not getting the point.
"Oh, Tristan, get off it. You where just gonna wake me up anyways, like you always do, so I can contribute to the camera diary, even if I am flipping out trying to kill you….." Iris said irritatedly snapping at him.
"Hey I get lonely
"Okay, cool it you two. Tristan is 18, he plays the drums for the band, and he controls fire. He's also a vampire too.. Iris is, indeed a vampire, if that was what you all were thinking. She is 17, and sings and plays the electric violin."
"Okay, so, I'm sleeping in the same house as a vampire?" Beast Boy said, slightly scared.
"Two of em'" Tristan smiled, showing teeth.
"An egg-nog spiking vampire." Iris said, flashing her teeth at him.
"She spiked the eggnog last year at some random party. But she didn't use alchol, it was wine, which still is alchol, and one time she used fruit juice and beer and everybody ws having allergic reactions and stuff out of nowhere." Krysta babbled.
Everybody sat silenced when she stopped.
"You done?" Krys asked, almost non-joking monotone sarcatsic voice.
Krysta nodded her head, apparently pleased with herself.
"Okay. Go take some meds. The blue ones, okay?" Krys said.
Krysta nodded her head again and skipped into the kitchen.
"So. You guys going on tour anywhere soon?" Robin asked.
"What is this 'tour' you speak of them going on Robin. Are they taking a tour of the zoo? Are we to go with them?" Starfire asked curiously.
"Star, a tour like a music tour. They go on tour to place music places at shows."
Beast Boy explained.
"They play music to animals?" Starfire wrinkled her nose at the odd thought.
"No star, we play music at concerts at theaters and places. Sometimes cafes, and civic centers. We get paid money from tickets." Brian went on about how you get profits from paying to rent a center to play a concert at and charging for tickets.
"oh. I am no longer confused. Please, continue your previous conversation you were having." Starfire silenced herself.
"We're getting a confirmation letter in the mail soon. We're trying to hook up with another band like, I dunno….the current one is Modest Mouse, they're really nice, but I dunno. They've got a busy schedule. But so do we. We're going on a tour by ourselves, during the summer, when everybody's out of school." Brian said.
"Ugh school. We have to go back tomorrow." Terra said, slumping in her chair and putting her head on the table.
"Why don't you bring the Titans Terra. I'm sure they'd like to go." Krys said.
"Would you guys come? I'd really like that. But I have my job after school, I don't think you'd like to come to that." Terra said.
"Where do you work?" Robin said. He was proud of Terra. She seemed to have a grip on life.
"I, um, work at a mall. At a store." Terra said.
"Oh, that's informative." Raven said, rolling her eyes.
"Okay Okay. I was gonna take you guys there anyways, when I wasn't working. I work at a certain section of the mall, with all these really cool shops, first I work at the silver dragon, a really cool wiccan shop, then at a café next to it called Blue Crystal. It's cool, and they play alternative rock in the background. It's cool because eveyr single one of my family members works in a shop in that part of the mall. Except for one place, a bookshop, that Krysta has a reserved spot in. Iris works at Hot Topic, and we get discounts." Terra said, and then got up. "I'm tired, and it's eleven, and I have to wlak tomorrow. If you guys are coming tomorrow, tell Brian, he'll have somebody wake you up tomorrow morning, somebody near you." Terra walked away, and turned a corner walking to her room.
Beast Boy watched her go and got up and followed her silently as a bug. He followed her to her room, well the room that she shared with her four twin sisters, Keri and Kali, and her and Stella. She went in, and Beast Boy tranformed back. 'Now I know where to go.' He thought, and walked down the hallway, hoping he'd remember.
The Titans got assigned rooms, and they went to them. The Aremias lent the Titans clothes, and they found that they found their tastes to be satisfied. Now out of their clothes, they thought of this as a great way to relax almost. To hang out with other teens, with powers too, felt great. It was funny too. Things happened when powers were out of control, all caught on tape.
"I still want to see the video diary tapes you have. Is that okay?" Robin said, as Tristan opened the door to Robin's temporary room.
"Yep Sure. No problem. Now, about your room…"
Beast Boy walked to hallways to Terra's room. It was about 11:20, and he heard laughter and a tv, so the girls were still obviously up. He knocked on the door and gulped, hoping his plan wouldn't backfire. Stella answered the door laughing, and then smiled misheviously.
"Hey terra, guess who's here?" Stella said.
"Who? Ugh, don't do that again Stella." Terra came to the door and stepped out of her bedroom in her pjs, which were some blue flare sweatpant material pants and a t-shirt.
"Hey Beast Boy what's up?" Terra said, a smile on her face.
The girls in the bedroom were quiet, obviously listening to their conversation. Beast Boy shrugged this off. If he was going to ask her out in the futue, in public, people would be listening too so he should get used to it, he guessed.
"Hey. I was wondering if you wanted to go somewhere on, maybe, Friday? We could go get a pizza or something."
Beast Boy said.
"Sure! I'd like that. Um, you could meet me at my job, there's a pizza place in the mall that's really good. It even has a veggie pizza." Terra said, smiling.
"Cool. That'd work." Beast Boy said. 'kiss her, you know you want to.
Shut up!'
"Yeah, okay. good night, BB." Terra said, and gave him a kiss on the cheek. 'I hope he wanted that. I did.' She blushed and went to touch the door handle, but beast boy caught her hand.
He gently pressed her against the wall and kissed her. Terra slowly melted into the kiss, and when Beast Boy moved back she was blushing. "Good night, Terra." He said.
Terra smiled prettily, and went into her room and closed the door. Inside her room, she leaned and lsid down against the door, flushed, and then realized she had sisters, who were staring intently at her. Stella rased an eyebrow.
"Ecstacy?" She said, smirking.
"Ecstacy" Terra said, and was pig piled to spill the goods.
