TEEN TITANS : Power Surge
"Titans go!" Robin yelled. The Titans were in battle against the Dark Samurai. Dark Samurai pulled out his swords and charged. Cyborg blasted him with his cannon; Beast-Boy transformed into a T-Rex and whacked him with his tail. Dark Samurai went flying back but got right back up. "You can't defeat darkness!" Dark Samurai yelled.
"Wanna bet?" Terra said forcing a wave of concrete at him. Dark Samurai jumped onto the wave and ricocheted of it. Raven and Starfire flew in from behind and grabbed him. Dark Samurai swirled his swords to ward them off. A person was standing in an alley watching the Titans. Robin jumped at Dark Samurai and kicked his swords away. Starfire and Raven came in and grabbed him again. As soon as they grabbed him, he vanished. Dark Samurai reappeared right in front of Robin and Terra. Just then, his swords vanished and reappeared in his hands.
"This is hopeless." Beast-Boy said. "Maybe not" Raven told him. Dark Samurai shot chains of dark energy form the tips of his swords and wrapped all the Titans up. "Ha! I told you couldn't defeat me!" Dark Samurai laughed. "Maybe they can't." the stranger from the alley said, "But maybe I can!" The stranger shot wave of bright yellow energy from his hands and shocked Dark Samurai. The samurai collapsed and lay on the ground, unmoving.
The Titans got back up from the chains to see the stranger retreating back into the alley. "Wait!" Starfire yelled as they all started to chase him. Terra looked back at Dark Samurai, made rock surround him and left to chase the stranger as well. The stranger turned a lot of corners until he got to a ladder on the side of a building. He climbed up and went into a window. The Titans followed him into the window. "Please, do not fear us." Starfire explained, "We only wish to thank you."
"Oh…well, your welcome." The stranger said. "Hey, why don't you come back to Titans Tower with us?" Robin suggested. "Sure, I guess." The stranger replied.
Later…
"Thanks again for helping us." Robin said. "No problem." The stranger replied. "So what's your name?" Beast-Boy asked. The stranger had been wearing a raggedy old poncho so none of the Titans had seen his face. "Oh sure." The stranger said as he took off his poncho,"The name's Shockwave."
Shockwave was about 5 feet tall. He wore a dark blue tank top with a white t-shirt under it. Tan shorts and black shoes. His tank top had a lightning bolt symbol on it. His hair was brown and a mess and he had goggles similar to Terra's on his forehead. He had strange gloves on, more like long wristbands.
"Shockwave eh?" Cyborg said. "What's your power?" "Well, I blast out electricity from my hands, can control all electric devices and make a great generator!" Shockwave explained. "Well, you put on quite a show out there." Robin said, "How'd you like to be part of the team?" Shockwave stood there and looked at his shoes. "I don't know…" he said finally,"Every time I've tried to join a team, something goes wrong and I havta leave." "Maybe this'll be different." Raven said, taking down her hood. Shockwave looked at Raven and went into a warm gaze. He thought she was beautiful. "I thought you were quite good. "She told him. "Well, maybe this time, I'll make an exception." Shockwave said. "Cool." Cyborg said, "Here, catch!" He tossed Shockwave a communicator. Shockwave made a giant arm out of lightning and grabbed it. "Thanks." Shockwave was now a Teen Titan.
Raven sat on the roof and meditated. The fall sun gleamed across her face. Shockwave walked out the door to the roof and spotted Raven. He walked over and sat next to her. "Mind if I join ya?" Shockwave asked. Raven shook her head. The two meditated for a while. Beast-Boy came rushing out the door with Cyborg chasing after him with a chicken leg. "Aaaaahhh! Get it away!" Beast-Boy yelled, running right into Shockwave. The crash caused Shockwave to fall of the tower. "Aaaaaaaaahhhh!" Shockwave yelled as he fell. Raven's eyes bolted open and she took off after him. Raven grabbed Shockwave's arm and pulled him back up to the roof. "You Ok?" Raven asked when they got back up. "Yeah, thanks" Shockwave said as he hugged Raven. Raven's face went completely red. Shockwave blushed and let go. "Oh, sorry." He laughed. "That's Ok." Raven said as she went back inside. Shockwave sighed and went back inside with Beast-Boy and Cyborg.
Shockwave went back up to the roof after dinner. He watched the sun going down. He hadn't noticed that Terra had walked up and sat down. "Sup?" Terra asked. "Huh?" Shockwave said, "Oh nothing." "Yeah, right." Terra said, "I can tell when things are on people's minds." Shockwave sighed. "Really, it's nothing." "All right." Terra said. She got up and went back inside. Shockwave fell back and lied staring at the sky. He had a lot on his mind. After a while, he finally got up and went to bed.
Slade's Base
"So, the Titans have another member." Slade said, "Well, that shouldn't be much of a problem should it." Slade was talking to a new associate, hiding in the shadows. "No sir" the person said. "Good, now get going." Slade demanded. The person slid off.
Beast-Boy yawned as he got up off the couch the next morning. "Aw man!" Beast-Boy yelled, "I got gum in my hair!" Terra walked into the living room. "What's wrong BB?" she asked. Beast-Boy pointed to his hair and Terra laughed. "Hold on, I'll help you. She got out some scissors and told him to sit down. Terra began to cut the gum out. Robin and Cyborg came walking into the room. "Anyone seen Shockwave?" Robin asked. Terra pointed to the ceiling. Robin looked up to find Shockwave fixing wires in a light. "Um, Shockwave, what are you doing?" Robin asked. "Just fixing some stuff." Shockwave replied, "I still have the video transmission, the fridge and the CD Player to fix." Everyone was confused. "Ok…you do that." Robin told him and went over to see Terra and Beast-Boy's problem. Cyborg was getting frustrated with the microwave. "C'mon! All I want to do is make a breakfast burrito!" Shockwave looked. "Hold on." He told Cyborg. Shockwave put his hand out and zapped the microwave. It instantly started cooking the burrito. "All right! Thanks!" Cyborg yelled. Shockwave nodded and went back to his work.
Raven and Starfire walked in. They sat down at the table and started talking with Terra. Shockwave looked down at Raven. Raven seemed to notice he was watching her so she looked back up at him. Shockwave blushed, quickly turned his head and continues sparking wires. Raven gave a small smile and went back to talking. Cyborg came to the table with breakfast. "Yeah! My hair is gum-free!" Beast-Boy yelled as he started to sprint across the room. Everyone laughed. "C'mon down Shockwave." Cyborg said. Shockwave made a lighting arm and grabbed his plate. He made an electric plate to sit the plate on. "Hey, Shockwave. I don't remember us hiring you as our maid." Beast-Boy said. Shockwave turned his head. "It's what I do." He turned his head back and continued working and eating a waffle. "Weird kid." Terra said. "Why does Shockwave feel he needs to all our chores?" Starfire asked. "He's just shy." Raven explained, "He thinks if he does things for us, we won't kick him out." Robin looked up at the working little kid. "Like we'd kick him out anyway." Everyone nodded and ate breakfast.
The alarm went off. "Titans! Let's go!" Robin said. All the Titans ran out the door. They arrived downtown, in front of a bank. A blast cam from the wall and very weird looking person stepped out. He was wearing ripped jeans and a ripped t-shirt but what was really strange was his hands. Instead of hands, he had bulky machines with one dig drill on the ends. "Oh-no." Shockwave said. Beast-Boy looked back at him. "You know this guy?" he asked. "Unfortunately." Shockwave replied. The boy stepped forth. "The Teen Titans." He said,"I've been looking for you!" He smirked. "For those who don't know me." He gave Shockwave a dirty look, "The name's Sidewinder!"
"Like we care." Shockwave said. He conjured lightning cards and threw them at Sidewinder. Sidewinder jumped them and drilled into the ground. "Where'd he go?" Starfire asked. Just then, Sidewinder drilled out of the ground and smashed into Starfire. "Starfire!" Robin yelled. He scowled and charged at Sidewinder. Sidewinder shot two drill missiles at Robin. Robin got out of the way before the missiles hit. Sidewinders drills reset. Sidewinder began blasting randomly at everyone. Beast-Boy turned into a spider and snuck up on him. He then turned into a boa and constricted Sidewinder. "Terra, now!" Beast-Boy yelled. Terra began having chunks of earth mold around Sidewinder. "Foolish girl!" Sidewinder laughed, "Earth is my element!"
He blasted out of the rock cocoon and rammed into Terra and throwing Beast-Boy into a wall. Starfire sent a rain of starbolts at sidewinder. He obviously was hurt by the blasts. Cyborg sent a sonic blast at the smoldering smoke cloud fro good measure. The smoke continued to billow. Then, Sidewinder rocketed out of the dust and swiped Cyborg and Starfire and shoved them into another wall. Robin threw disks at him but Sidewinder turned around and drilled through them as they cam. He charged at Robin and smacked him upside the head. The only remaining Titans were Shockwave and Raven. Sidewinder shot two missiles toward Raven. "Asaroth Meitrone Synthos!" Raven yelled and made the missiles explode. Sidewinder smirked.
He then let open fire on Raven. Raven was stopping them as fast as she could but she wasn't fast enough. Missiles blasted her and she started to fall from the air. "Raven!" Shockwave yelled. He ran and caught her, right before she hit the ground. "Raven..you ok?" Shockwave asked. "Yeah, get Sidewinder." Raven replied weakly. Shockwave made a face of hatred. His eyes blazing. Shockwave set Raven on the ground near Starfire. "Sidewinder!" Shockwave yelled, "It's just me and you now. Bring it!" Sidewinder again let open fire on him. Shockwave ran right into the missiles but started jumping from one to another. He finally got to Sidewinder. Shockwave let blasts from his hands hack away at Sidewinder. No matter how long Shockwave kept blasting, Sidewinder kept blocking all his attacks. Shockwave fell to his knees, feeling tired. "Getting tired?" Sidewinder laughed. Shockwave panted and looked back at his friends. Smashed into walls, lying weak on the ground. He looked around for something that might help him. Then, he spotted it
A fire highdrent. Sidewinder was standing there, just watching him. Shockwave smirked. He got up and put his hand out to the side. "What do you think you're doing?" Sidewinder asked. Shockwave let a blast hit the highdrent. It exploded and gallon after gallon of water sprayed at Sidewinder. "Quit it!" Sidewinder yelled, "Stop!" Shockwave finally made the water stop. "Ya know Sidewinder, your drills kinda help me out right now." Shockwave said, "Now that you're waterlogged, you're just a giant lightning rod." Sidewinder looked at his drenched body. He growled. Shockwave put his fist into the air. It started to glow a very bright yellow. Then it looked like he punched the air, but he let the energy go. A giant blast of energy hit Sidewinder's drills. Sidewinder shook violently as he was being electrified. An explosion went off because of all the energy. Sidewinder lied on the ground, in a smoking cloud. Shockwave decided to worry bout him later but to go see how his friends were.
Shockwave went back to Raven and sat her up. "You beat him" Raven said. "Yep." Shockwave replied. He decided to hold her in his arms till she felt she could get up. Shockwave was just relieved no one was greatly hurt, especially Raven.
