Rise of Dark Angel
I'm doing these chapters as fast as poss. Minor writers block.
Disclaimer: I don't own Teen Titans. I do own Ollie/ Dark Angel. You know the drill.
Warning: Robxrae and OllieXSpeedy. Don't like. Don't read.
Just friends?
Raven was standing at the kettle, thinking. "I'm sorry about what happened, Raven." Ollie said, walking over to her friend.
Raven shook her head. "It wasn't your fault. I think we've found out what Jinx's hex did."
"Is that what you think it is?" Ollie asked, a little stunned.
"Yes. She knows how to bring out the worst in people." Raven explained. She rested a hand on Ollie's shoulder. "Don't worry." She said softly.
"One more thing." Ollie said before they walked into the living room. "Who is that guy? And does he have a girlfriend?" She asked with a smile.
Raven smiled and shook her head. "His name is Speedy and he's very similar to your brother. Both very cocky." Raven turned to her friend. "As for if he has a girlfriend, I wouldn't know. Why don't you just read his mind?"
"Oh yeah." Ollie said. "Hahahaha. I'm dumb some times." Ollie frowned. "That's strange. I can't get into his mind."
Raven rolled her eyes. "Well you'll just have to find out the old way then."
Ollie smiled. "Yeah. I'll ask Robin." Raven rolled her eyes again.
'That's the good thing about masks.' Speedy thought. 'No one can tell where your looking.' His eyes on Ollie as she walked from the kitchen. "Okay. So can you explain now?" he asked turning to Robin.
"We heard reports about Ollie. A girl with wings. We wanted to check it out, you know, see what she could do. We also found out that her name wasn't really Parklands, it was Grayson." Robin paused for effect. "We soon figured out that we were twins. That's it really."
Speedy was thinking for a minute. "So what can you do?" he asked Ollie.
She shot a glance at Raven. 'I'm a black belt in karate, brown belt in jujitsu. I fight with bo, jo, nunchucks, and samari sword. I'm an empath, telepath and I know a bit of hypnotism." She smiled at Speedy's slack jaw.
"Wow." Was all he could say.
"So do you want to stay here for a bit?" Robin asked.
"If you guys don't mind." He replied. "I'd like to stick around for a bit. Train and stuff."
Robin grinned. "Cool. You can stay in my room. You don't want to even try the guest bedroom."
All the Titans had gone to their bedrooms, but Speedy and Robin,were still talking in Robins room.
"So what's the deal with Ollie?" Speedy asked as soon as he and Robin were alone. "Has she got a boyfriend."
Robin laughed. "No she doesn't. I could tell you liked her."
Speedy wrinkled his nose. "How? I was very discreet."
"Yeah. Whatever. I could tell because of the way your jaw dropped and you started looking like a gormless idiot when she stepped out of the car." Robin pointed out.
Speedy blushed. "Just means I know a babe when I see one."
"Careful Speedy." Robin warned. 'That's my sister you're talking about."
"I know. I know. I'll be careful. But how do I get her to like me?" He asked.
Robin thought for a moment. "Hmmm. If you beat her in a sparring match you'll have her respect. I didn't beat her in a sparring match, though, so I doubt you will."
"Pft. That's cause you're a weakling, Boy Wonder." Speedy shot back.
"Oh yeah? Is that why I beat you in the tournament?" Robin asked.
"Anyway..." Said Speedy, trying to back on the subject of Ollie. "What other stuff does she like?"
"Music. Don't ever criticize her musical choices. She'll kill you. She likes Green Day, Linkin Park, Sum 41etc." Robin advised. "I don't know why you're asking me though. Raven knows more about her than me."
"Maybe I'll ask her in the morning." Speedy mused, leaning back on his arms.

"Ollie?" Speedy asked a yawning Dark Angel.
"Y-y-yeah?" She replied.
Speedy cleared his throat. " I need to do some training and I was wondering if you'd help me?"
Ollie smiled. "Yeah. That would be okay. Not too rough though. I put a lot into kicking Robins ass yesterday. I'm a bit sore."
Speedy breathed a sigh of relief. "Shall we meet in the training room at 1o'clock?"
Ollie just nodded as she stifled another yawn. He'd pounced as she was walking to the bathroom. Not a pretty sight. After getting out of the bathroom, she lurched downstairs.
Raven followed her. They both groaned in unison as they reached the kitchen. Beast Boy was playing the 'Grease' theme CD. Ollie walked boldly over to the CD player, pressed stop and shoved a CD from her discman into the CD player. Loud guitar flooded out of the speakers as a wonderful little ditty called 'All the small things.' by Sum 41.
Raven and Ollie sighed with relief. "Hey! Dude what you do with my music?" Beast Boy asked indignantly.
"Changed it to something you can listen to without wincing in pain." Raven said coldly.
Beast Boy, not thinking that was an acceptable answer, stalked off to make some tofu eggs.
Ollie shook her head and walked into the kitchen. Who needs cooked food in the morning when you've got honey nut cornflakes?(Yummy!)
"So what are you doing today?" Raven asked Ollie.
Ollie shrugged. "Speedy asked me to help him train, but that's at 1:00." She turned towards Raven, who was huddled over her cup of tea. "Why do you want to know?"
A slight pink tint added itself to Ravens normally pale skin. "I was wondering if you could help me get ready for tonight." She said quietly.
"What's happening to- oh. I remember. Sure, you need the help." She teased.
Raven looked up fast, but seeing Ollie was joking, just smiled.
Unusually, the red light went off on the Titans communicators (A/N: Ollie's is on her sword, which she keeps with her at all times.)
Raven, Ollie and Starfire walked up to the roof.
Speedy was bemused. "Why are they going up there?" He asked Robin.
Robin wrinkled his nose in annoyance. "They can all fly."
Speedy laughed. "Funny that. How all the girls can fly, without changing," he added for Beast Boy's sake, "and yet none of us can."
Beast Boy folded his arms, still sulking. "Yeah. Hilarious."

The girls arrived outside an old run down apartment building. Ollie and raven both scanned the building. "Fourth floor." Ollie said after a moment of concentrating.
They went straight up, not waiting for the guys. Raven touched a finger to her lips. Ollie unsheathed her sword and Starfire readied her starbolts. Raven opened the door to find a man hunched over a young girl. He had fangs.
Raven and Starfire were both in shock, so Ollie flung her sword at the attackers head, just as he turned around. His headed rolled on the floor, blood everywhere.
Starfire had run out of the building. 'That girl has got such a weak stomach.' Raven thought snidely.
"Hello? Hello? Wake up!" Ollie shouted, trying to wake the girl. Finally she figured shaking wasn't going to work, so she slapped her around the face.
"Owwww. The girl moaned. "What did you do that for?"
"If it wasn't for us you'd be dead." Raven told her gesturing to the dead vampire on the floor.
The girl let out a scream of frustration. "Not those damn vampires again!" She shouted.
"Again?" Ollie asked, unbelieving. "Wait lets get you out of here."
"Can I put some pants on?" The girl asked.
Ollie laughed and nodded.
The girl quickly put on some jeans and shoved stuff into a bag. "I'm going to have to move again now." She huffed.
"I think that's the least of your worries at the moment." Ollie said wryly. "What's your name anyway?" She asked.
"Um." The girl said, thinking. "Just call me Brains."
"Brains?" Raven and Ollie asked in unison.
Brains smiled. "I had an I.Q. Of 180 when I was three."

By the time the guys reached the seedy little apartment, Star, Brains, raven and Ollie were all stood on the curb waiting.
Robin was incredulous. "You've finished already?"
Ollie nodded. "You can go upstairs and see for yourself. Fourth floor. Vampire. I cut his head off." The guys stared. "That's the only thing you can do with vampires. They don't die any other way. He was gonna take a bit out of, ahem, Brains here."
"Brains?" Beast Boy asked. "Dude, your name can't be Brains."
Brains sighed and folded her arms. "I have an I.Q. Of 200."
"We should get back to the Tower." Robin said quickly. "I have some research to do."
"Me and Brains will go in the car. I'm not leaving the poor girl alone with you four." Ollie said flashing a grin at Speedy, who blushed.
"Okay. See you back at the Tower."
What do you think of Brains? Tell me honestly. Lots of fluff.
