disclaimer- nooo! i forgot this in the first chapter... no, i do not own this show. i will not post this again. the people who own teen titans will not sue me anyway cuz its on a fanfiction site and i'm not even going to bash the titans in this fic, so they wouldn't care. there are much worse writers out there that they would want to track down first, so... yeah. i do not own teen titans.

Chapter One
-
The girl in the wireless cafe gulped down her water as a drunk would down wine or wiskey. She was not reading fanfictions tonight - no, this night she was ranting on a teen titans forum, under the section labeled "Raven." While doing so she mumbled under her breath... something about monotones and smiling...
Around 11:14 she stood up and walked toward the stage, a straight, dark look on her face. She was given the microphone and she didn't sit on the stool provided for the artists who read their poetry, but instead stayed standing.
Beginning in a monotonous voice she stated, "Who here is a fan of teen titans?"
There was not much responce to this. The audience either thought that she was crazy, or that this was part of her poem.
"Well then," she continued, "Who here knows that Raven is in love with Beast Boy, only smiles for a very good reason, and always speaks in a monotone?"
This gathered more interest. Snapping of fingers went through her audience though there were a few boos (probably the RobRave shippers... she thought, twitching)
"Did you ever notice that in the episode which they played last saturday and I think they played it on monday too - the bunny raven one? Well during almost the whole thing Raven spoke without a monotone, there were RobRave moments, though none of them were quite as bad as others have been, and - and - and - ... she friggen SMILED!"
A gasp came from a few people as they realized Winter was right. Snaps echoed all around.
"And one last thing before I leave," she said, still in her monotone, people! "Back to the fact that the RobRave moments in Bunny Raven weren't as bad as others... Someone give me the address to the person who wrote birthmark... Tonight is their reckoning. insert evil laugh here"

The titans made their way to the city; all of them flying except Cyborg who had to be carried by Starfire. (Yes, Robin can now fly. He has that little jetpack thingy from "employee of the month", remember?) The call had come from a downtown part of the city, down where drugs were delt in secret and girls couldn't walk alone for fear of being raped. There was always something wrong going on in this part of the city, the gangs and violence saw sure to that, but the Jump City Police could generally deal with it without the help of their superheroes.
In moments the super teens saw what they were flying to fight. A beam of light from an alley just a few hundred feet from the titans and an explosion sound showed them the location, and soon afterwards they were hovering over what looked like giant blue crabs.
There were three of them, and each of them was shaped like a normal crab that you might eat at a seafood restaurant, though each were different. They were all lined up, though it is hard not to be in such a small alley. The one in front was the smallest, and it used razor sharp claws to hack through whatever it was attacking, the one residing in the middle was the largest, every few moments releasing large amounts of charged energy at the walls around it, and the last one, was not, as you might guess, the medium. No, the last one was almost as small as the first one, and shot lasers at the street, creating havoc.
As the teens landed on a roof and briefly surveyed their enemies, they readied themselves. Before any of them knew it, Robin was once again saying those memorable words that caused them to get off their bums, the best known line in Teen Titans history:
"Titans! GO!"
With this they all began to attack. Cyborg, along with Starfire who had quickly flown him down, took the crab furthest to the back. The half mechanical man quickly burst a shot from his sonic cannon at the crab's left foot with a Cyborg battle cry, causing it to stumble. As it tried to regain its composure Star hit it repeatedly with her starbolts from above, not allowing it to stand again. The blue creature faced its attacker over his head and tried to hit her with its laser, but Cyborg took this oppertunity to hit its exposed underbelly with his cannon.
Robin immediately took on the middle creature, which, at the time, was recharging its power to set off another blast. With one of his little yellow disks hitting it on the top of its head (or what he figured to be the head) he got the attention of the beast. (-note- umm.. I'm sorry but I can't remember the name of those little weapon things i guess...) It could not fight on its own - it relied on storing its power then releasing it - but if it didn't concentrate it could not recharge. Robin pulled out his bo staff and began to sabotage the machine, side by side, part by part. Beast Boy, after a few moments, ran from where he was fighting the first crab as a tricerotops and banged his head into the side of the machine over and over.
Raven and Beast Boy had set to destroy the first one in line.
"Azarath, Metrion, Zinthos," she murmured, her powers picking up a barrel from behind her. It hit the monster from the side, barely fazing it, and she picked up another. While she did this Beast Boy changed from the bird he first was to a lion. He let out a quick roar as he attacked the same place Raven had just seconds before. It began to swing at the changling with its blade arms, and with her new barrel surrounded by black she hit its right arm, breaking it, along with the blade, off.
The green lion quickly morphed into a tricerotops, and charged at the blue mechanical crab from the opposite side. He hit it at its foot and retreated so that it could not swing at him, watching satisfactory as that side of it buckled. At this point Beast Boy noticed that Robin was fighting the middle beast on his own, and quickly charged forward at the other creature.
Dust settling, the Titans saw that they were victorious. Well, most of the Titans. Raven was turned away from her fellow teammates, intent on staring at something in the shadow of the building. When the others noticed this they all, in turn, began to look as well, also seeing what she was. And that thing that they were all seeing was seeing them all back.
The girl steped out of the shadow in a manner not unlike one Slade would use. Slowly, back straight, and eyes strongly staring. she revealed to the Titans what she looked like. Her more pink than yellow strawberry blonde hair was in a single french braid starting at the back of her head and reaching down a few inches below her shoulders, a few wispy pieces blowing here and there. Her eyes were a deep blue and her skin was almost contrastingly tan, though not too dark. She was dressed in a dark red tank top and a gold-silver chrome coloured loose pants.
"Um, hello?" Robin ventured.
She took a deep breath, at which point she closed her eyes, and released it, her eyes still shut. "Hello. Those - monsters - do you know why they were here?"
Raven narrowed her eyes just slightly, watching on.
"No. All we know is that they were creating havoc and we stopped them." As Robin said this the other Titans were still just watching, now unarmed. Beast Boy had turned back into his green human form, Cyborg's cannon had turned back into his mechanical arm, and Starfire now floated between the two barely a foot off the ground.
The girl only breathed for a few moments, and blinked a few times before she responded. "Oh... That's good I suppose." Then she fell over to the right, not moving.
After less than a moment, the Titans rushed forward toward the limp form and Cyborg checked her vital signs.
"Well whoever she is, she's fine," He said, "My only question is why didn't she leave when the battle started?"
Raven was watching, hovering above Cyborg's shoulder, with a grim look on her face. The thought in her mind was, of course, that the girl had really been here to control the robots. She did not say it, though, because it was at this moment that she opened her eyes once more.
"Oh good, you're all here," she said, sitting up, as if they hadn't been there only moments before when she had been awake, "How about I tell you why I'm here? Or maybe I could just show you and let you figure out on your own."
With this she pulled a small remote from her pocket, pressing a large button on its top. The area was engulfed in white light in a second, and the Titans fell, unconscious, to the ground.

note- okay. i finished this chapter. yay! except i'm really really really bad at battle scenes so this chapter wasn't very good. and i left you at what you guys call a "cliffy". muhahahaha! okay, just so everyone understands: because according to my little scenerio thing that is in the beginning of every chapter i only really do any internet/typing wednesday nights at the wireless cafe, i will update every thursday. as much as i love to post for all of you wonderful people a billion times a day, i have to set a pace for myself to make sure that I get everything done and well. If I post the chapters as I do them I will get ahead of myself and make stupid mistakes that will mess up the rest of the story. So the next chapter will be posted on MARCH 10! Make sure that you come on and read it and review my story to deliver a new impetus to my writing. See you next week!
sneaky peaky- "chapter two" The titans are no longer unconcious, and do not remember being so. As a matter of fact, they don't remember anything about their lives as superheroes. Did the mysterious girl in the alley do this to them?
