Well people, I have had so muhc time on my hands that I have decided to add another chapter today, it's a treat! Well here is Chapter Five: Shade's Origin. Enjoy!
"We sure are." Robin said smiling "We sure will."
"Ok I bet your tired, Shade, lets go and help the team members here into their rooms and show them around the tower shall we?" Dark looked to Shade, who was inching ever so close to Raven.
"Huh? Oh yeah, lets show them around. Everyone follow us, we will show you to your rooms and then give you a tour of the tower." Shade walked to the door that they had entered through and turned to the left.
They walked down the hallway for what seemed like hours. 'Holy shit, how long is this freaking hallway?' Beast Boy thought to himself. 'It's never going to end.' As he said this, they had finally reached the end of the hallway, and the wing where all the bedrooms were.
"Now, this is the girls room." Shade said, opening a door that revealed a very large room with plenty of space for anything. The room was complete with two king sized beds and a couch right in front of a fireplace.
"Very nice." Raven said, look amazed at the room. 'This is so much better than my room.' She thought to herself. She turned to look at Shade and realized he was looking right at her as well.
"I hope you like it." Shade said in a sweet voice.
"I love it…"Raven said, trailing off.
Everyone was now looking at her in awe, because no one even knew those words were in her vocabulary, let alone her say them in the same sentence.
"Ok guys, come with me." Dark said as he led the boys to a room right across the hall. "This, my friends is your room." Dark said, as he opened the door to reveal the same room as the girls, but this one was different.
"It looks exactly the same." Beast Boy said.
"Does it? Go and look under the TV." Dark said with a large grin on his face.
Beast Boy as he was told and went over to the rather large television and looked below it, gasped and fell backwards. "No way, this, this can't be! There is no way you have this, this is a prototype!" Beast Boy shouted.
Robin and Cyborg went over to where Beast Boy looked down and tears began to well in their eyes.
"You…you have GameStation 3?" I can't believe it, last I heard it was in prototype stage and wasn't even close to being released."
"Well the company asked Shade here to test out the new GameStation and when they had completed the testing, they sent us one before the public even knew, they were even so nice to send us some games as well."
The three Teen Titans sat there in front of the TV almost in tears. They turned and looked at Dark and Shade and their expressions said everything. It was a 'thank you!'
"Ok well we are going to be back in the living room if you need us, and if we need anything, we will be sure to shout. Dinner is at 6 pm, be there or else there will be nothing for you guys. Enjoy yourselves."

Before dinner Raven wondered around the tower a bit to get used to it, and came across Shade's room. He was inside chanting like Raven normally did, but using his own words of "Hesbora, Necrome, Vortis".
Raven looked in and knocked. "Sorry to disturb you, but I couldn't help overhearing that you use magic words like I do. Can you tell me where you learned them?"
"Huh?" Shade said unaware that Raven had entered his room. "Oh hello, yeah sure come on in, and you wanted to know where I learned my words? Ok, I will tell you. Please sit." He said and motioned towards a chair in his room. "When I was a young boy, I always dreamed of being a magician, doing all those tricks. I really liked them, and then I actually figured out that all their tricks were fake and imaginary. It really hurt me; I always believed that they were real. Anyways, one day, I wandered out of the town that I lived in and saw some people doing something in the middle of the forest." Raven was very intrigued and hung on his every word. "So anyway, I went and looked at what they were doing, and then one of them spotted me, and beckoned me to go forward. They showed me what they were doing, it seemed that they were levitating and moving objects with a technique called psycho kinesis. Like I said I had before. They had known I had some abilities in me from the moment they saw me, they could read my mind. So after that, I went back every night and they trained me to control my powers and harness them. And now I stand here before you the person I am now with those abilities."
Raven still just sat there, in awe at his story. "So, can you read minds?" She asked him nervously.
"I can a little bit, but I am not good at it yet. I still have some training to do." Shade admitted.
"It's ok, I want you to try on me, test your powers." Raven said to him.
"No, I couldn't what happened if I screwed up, I could really hurt you." Shade said turning away.
"It's ok, I know when I can't take anymore and I can tell you to stop." Raven said, making Shade to face her again.
"Ok, I will try." Shade said, sitting in front of Raven and placing his hands right beside her beautiful face and began to read her mind.
He began to read her mind and one thought flew out of her head and into his like mad, there was no stopping it. He saw he hatred for her father, the worry of losing her friends and….
Shade gasped and took his hands away from her face.
"What's wrong? What did you see?" Raven asked, concerned.
"Umm never mind." Shade said, blushing as he did so.
Just then an alert sounded and Dark's voice came over the voice box. "Guy's we need all of you down here now! We have a problem."

Everyone gathered in the living room and awaited the briefing.
"So Dark, what's up?" Frosty asked.
"It's Warhead, he's at it again. He's searching for us." Dark replied, with the utmost seriousness. This was going to be a tough battle.
