Chapter 2: My name is Nightfire.

The night was crisp in Jump City as wind blew calmly and air smelled pleasant. Standing on a small island around the busy city is Titans Tower. Inside the Tower are the greatest teenage superheroes of them all, The Teen Titans. The leader Robin is martial arts expert and a very talented person. Starfire, an alien from Tamaran. Though naïve and gentle, she is quite strong and can fire star bolts from her hands and beams from her eyes. Cyborg, the half man, half robot hybrid that has incredible strength and shoots out his sonic cannon and other unique weapons and utilities. Raven, a dark mysterious Goth who can levitate objects, form shields, and use dark magic. Beast Boy, the comedic changeling, who can shape into any animal he can think off, even extinct ones. The next member of the Titans is Terra, a blonde girl who can move rock with her earth powers. And LM, trained by Neo, he can bend the rules of reality, can fire with any weapon he carries, and is a risk taker. Heading back to the story, the team was at the common room just relaxing with nothing else to do. Cyborg, Beast Boy, and LM sat at the rounded couch watching WWE, Raven was at her usual spot reading another one of her old musty books, Terra was next to Raven listening to her music on her I-Pod with her feet on the table, and Robin and Starfire were at the small kitchen where Robin offered her a glass of chocolate milk.

Starfire: "So, are you sure this chocolate milk is real good?"

Robin: "Of course Star. I remembered my mom giving me chocolate milk when I was young and it tastes great. Go ahead and try it."

Starfire: "I don't know."

Robin: "Starfire, you are on earth. You have drink something besides zorka berry juice and mustard."

Starfire looked at the glass of chocolate milk thought it would be nice to try new things.

Starfire: "O.K. Robin, I'll take your offer."

Starfire pick up the glass and took a sip at the milk. She then realized that it tasted real good so she chugged in all down her throught, making Robin giggles a little. Starfire then put down the empty glass and smiled.

Starfire: "This is the most wondrous thing I have ever tasted."

Starfire looked at Robin and noticed he was still laughing.

Starfire: "Friend, what's so funny?"

Robin: "Don't look now, but I think you got yourself a milk mustache on you face."

Starfire: "A what?"

Robin took out a mirror from his utility belt and gave it to Starfire. She looked at her face and saw the leftover chocolate milk above her upper lip. She slightly giggled on the way she looked and licked the milk over her lip. Robin couldn't help but look at the alien's curiosity, her sweet smile, and her glimmering emerald eyes. Cyborg looked at the two in the kitchen and could tell that Robin's acting soft on Starfire. Back at the kitchen, Starfire looked at Robin and saw his eyes were so mesmerized at her.

Starfire: "Robin, why are you looking at me like that?"

The Boy Wonder snapped out of his trance before Starfire could realize what's he thinking.

Robin: "Nothing. I just thought that you look beautiful today."

Starfire blushed at that comment and then heard Terra's voice coming from the other end.

Terra: "Hey Star, could you come here for just a minute? I want you to listen to this song I downloaded."

Starfire: "Coming friend Terra."

Starfire floated her way to Terra as Robin kept looking at her with lovable eyes, not keeping them away from her body. That was until Cyborg came by and sneaked up next to Robin.

Cyborg: "She does look hot does she?"

Robin got caught off guard and jumped away from Cyborg.

Robin: "Cyborg, you scared me? Shouldn't you be with LM and Beast Boy watching some wrestling?"

Cyborg: "Well I was until I saw you drooling over Star."

Robin: "Uh… What are you talking about?"

Cyborg: "Isn't it obvious? I think you have a crush on Starfire."

Robin's face turned red when he heard that remark and quickly shook it off.

Robin: "What? Me? A crush? No way! Me and Starfire are just friends."

Cyborg: "Oh really? Then what about that time you and Star need to be alone on the Ferris Wheel?"

A sweat drop came down the side of Robin's head.

Robin: "Uh…"

Cyborg: "Or the time when you had a dance with her at the prom?"

Another sweat drop came down his head.

Robin: "Well…"

Cyborg: "Or when you want to see Starfire before she was going to wed the booger creep on Tamaran?"

Robin: "Now that was different!"

Cyborg: "Face the facts bird boy; you're in love with her."

Robin: "So what if I'm in love with Starfire, it doesn't mean that she loves me back."

Cyborg: "Then why don't you tell Star that you love her?"

Robin: "Because I'm afraid that she might have someone else, maybe on Tamaran."

Cyborg: "Then go ahead and talk to her so you can get this over with."

Robin was a little nervous about it, but he has no choice. He's got to know if Starfire loves him. He walked up to the table where the girls were. He saw Star standing up listening to a song Terra downloaded. He sucked it up and decided to ask her the important question.

Robin: "Hey Starfire."

The Tamaranean looked at the Titan leader, in her usual bubbly state.

Starfire: "Yes Robin."

Robin: "Star there is something that wanted to say to you ever since we met and I am a little too embarrassed to say it since you… Well… How should say this? You see, you are special to me and I was wondering… The thing is that you and I… What I'm trying to say is…"

Raven: "Could you please spit it out already? You're ruining my concentration and I'm getting to the best part."

Robin decided to make it clear.

Robin: "The truth is Starfire is that I-"

Suddenly the alarm rang as red lights blinked continuously, interrupting Robin. He quickly headed to the one of the computers and below TV/window to check out what's the problem. The rest of the team approached Robin.

LM: "Great, who in one's mind would interfere in a match between John Cena and JBL?"

Robin kept looking and noticed who's causing trouble.

Robin: "It's Plasmus. He escaped from jail and trespassing in the disposable waste yard in the industrial district. We have to stop him! Let's move it team!"

Quickly everyone left to head to the garage, but Starfire was just standing there. Robin looked back and noticed Starfire not doing anything.

Robin: "Starfire, we have to go! What are you waiting for?"

Starfire: "Robin, I was wondering what were you going to say to me?"

Robin: "We'll talk about it later. Right now, we have a city to save."

Robin immediately left the common area as Starfire flew behind him.

Outside Titans Tower, the mysterious girl floated above it.

Mysterious Girl: "There it is, Titans Tower. I hope the defense systems won't detect me as an intruder."

But just as the girl was about to float down he spotted two cars and a bike leaving the Tower. After close inspection from a far away view, she could tell that it was Robin's R-Cycle, Cyborg's T-Car, and LM's classic Pontiac GTO, driving down to the industrial side of the city.

Mysterious Girl: "Then again, I think I'll make my introductory very special."

She quickly followed the vehicles in the air.

In the disposable waste yard, the place was filled with toxic barrels and flammable materials surrounded by barbwire fences and warning signs keeping people out. But there was one thing that ignored the warnings; it was a purple sludge creature with a huge mouth and multiple green eyes on top of its head. It was chugging down barrels of hazardous materials and toxic waste to make him stronger. It was enjoying itself until and strange smoking ball landed in front of it. The creature dropped the barrel and took a closer look at the ball. Suddenly, it exploded and had a hole in its torso. The creature then looked to see where the ball was fired and saw the Teen Titans in their battling positions with LM pointing his AGL-9 Grenade Launcher.

Robin: "Sorry Plasmus, but the kitchen is closed."

Plasmus took a deep breath and the hole through his body was closed up, making it whole. It then fired sludge blasts at the team.

Robin: "Titans, GO!"

Everyone quickly split up seconds before the sludge made contact to the ground. Robin was jumping on barrel after barrel avoiding the sludge balls. He then took out three exploding disks and threw it at Plasmus, causing an explosion on its arm. Cyborg then fire his sonic cannon connected to his arm and put holes in every part of Plasmus's body.

Cyborg: "Is that all you got Booger Boy?"

Plasmus quickly grabbed Cyborg by extending its arm at him and threw him to Robin. The two made contact with each other and were rolling straight into a stack of barrels, burying them after the crash. Beast Boy, who morphed into a stegosaurus, rammed Plasmus into a dumpster and pinned it there until three of its eyes exploded sending green goo at Beast Boy and sent him sliding at the other end in his human form covered in green ooze. Plasmus healed itself until a grenade flew right past it and exploded close to it. The creature looked at the right and saw LM holding his grenade launcher at the freak. It quickly fired sludge spikes at LM, but he used his focusing ability to dodge them by somersaulting and flipping his way in multiple directions. He quickly hid behind a small line of barrels waiting for the right moment to strike. When Plasmus stopped firing, LM jumped up on top of the barrels and fired his Grenade Launcher at the center of Plasmus. When it connected, it exploded, leaving nothing but sludge strips sticking out. LM slowly approached the exploded creature with his grenade launcher in hand just in case it's still alive. Suddenly, the sludge strips moved by themselves as one of them grabbed LM's grenade launcher, took it out of his hands, and threw it far away from the yard. LM looked at what happened and was infuriated about it.

LM: "Hey! Do you know how much that grenade lau-"

All the strips suddenly grabbed LM by surprised, shutting him up, and threw him straight to the ground. He slowly got up, noticing his clothes were smothered in purple sludge.

LM: "Now this is real gross."

Plasmus put itself together and was laughing about it. But it was interrupted by Starfire shooting multiple star bolts around it. The creature then fired its sludge balls at the alien, but she quickly flew around in different directions avoiding the sludge. As Plasmus was attacking Starfire, Raven levitated behind the creature with her eyes glowing white. She flings her arms around and part of the barbed wire fence was covered by a black aurora and was pulled out from the ground. The fence then wrapped around Plasmus like it was a birthday present.

Raven: "Terra now!"

Terra, who was hiding most of the time, came out from the barrels and raised her glowing yellow hands up in the air. Just like that, multiple stone spikes raised up from the ground, reaching and connecting above Plasmus, making a huge like birdcage to keep the tied up creature inside. Raven landed next to Terra knowing that it's over, or at least they thought. As Plasmus bloated up like a balloon and exploded, ripping the wrapped fence and destroying the stone cage. The blast caused the girls to fly, hitting the wall and covered in purple sludge.

Terra: "And who said the superhero job's neat."

Raven didn't say anything as the rest of the team except Starfire joined them ready to attack. Plasmus slowly approached the team ready to take them down, until another aerial attack of star bolts hit him. Only this time the star bolts were blue, not green. The only thing that was left of Plasmus was a wide purple puddle. Soon the Titans were cheering when Starfire came to the picture, not knowing what happened. The team then looked up and Starfire to congratulate her.

Robin: "Way to go Starfire!"

Beast Boy: "Yeah, who would've thought that you could fire blue star bolts."

Starfire: "Uh… That wasn't me friends."

Robin: "Well then if it wasn't you, then who-"

Mysterious Girl: "It was me!"

Everyone looked up and saw a girl floating to the ground and landed on her feet. The team did a double take and noticed that the girl almost looked like Starfire, except that her hair was jet black and was styled in a ponytail. Her outfit matches Starfire's except it was black with a blue bird on her tank top and little blue birds on top of her stocking sneakers. She also had a utility belt that matches Robin's except it was completely silver and had Warp's time vortex regulator on the buckle. She then looked at the Titans with sunglasses covering her eyes.

Mysterious Girl: "What? You guys looked like you never seen a superhero before."

Suddenly a rumble came from the ground and the place started to shake. It was then that the puddle exploded and Plasmus came back and was real angry. The team was ready to take it down, but the strange girl stopped them.

Mysterious Girl: "You guys take five, I'll handle it from here."

Without thinking, they agreed to let her handle it, just to see how tough this girl is. Plasmus was positioning itself to destroy the girl, and she did a stance of her own.

Mysterious Girl: "All right Freak Show, let's dance."

Plasmus shrieked as it extended its arms to grab the girl. She immediately flew up in the air seconds before it grabbed her. She went above Plasmus and fired it with her arsenal of blue star bolts. Plasmus covered itself from the blasts then fired its sludge balls at her. The girl quickly flew and spun around, avoiding the balls then landed on the ground to take cover behind a couple of barrels. She quickly took two freeze disks form her utility belt and had a small smirk on her face. She jumped out from her hiding place the same time as the creature's arms stretched out to get her. Immediately, she threw the disks at Plasmus's arms and when they connected, its arms freeze completely. Plasmus looked at its frozen arms and was dumbfounded.

Mysterious Girl: "Stay frosty…"

Plasmus was enraged about it and slammed its ice arms to break it to pieces. It then fired its sludge arms at the girl. She quickly jumped, ducked, and dodged to avoid all the blasts. The Titans looked at the action and noticed that the odds aren't good.

LM: "Ah shit, she's in trouble. Better give her backup."

LM took out a P229 Pistol from under his trench coast hurried to save her, but Robin stopped him there.

Robin: "Hold on LM; let's see if he can beat Plasmus by herself. If she's in any real danger, we'll help her."

Plasmus continued its attack on the girl as hid behind more barrels. It then stopped firing, turned around, and approached the Titans, ready to finish them off. The girl was still behind the barrels thinking up another plan.

Mysterious Girl: "Damn it! This thing is tougher then I thought. There's got to be some way in bringing the creep down."

She then looked at the barrels and saw pictures of flames and a warning between the pictures.

Mysterious Girl: "Warning: Flammable Materials."

She quickly had a wicked smile on her face knowing that she had her plan right in front of her. At the other end of the waste yard, Plasmus slowly approached the Titans ready to take them all done.

Robin: "Here it comes team, get ready!"

They all were in their battle stances, ready to attack. But before they had a chance to take the thing out, a flammable barrel was implanted on its back. Plasmus turned around and saw the girl carrying a barrel with her unimaginable strength.

Mysterious Girl: "Hey Plasmus, what about an appetizer before the main course?"

The girl quickly threw the barrel at the creature, hitting it in the front. She threw, tossed, and kicked every barrel next to her to stick it in Pasmus's body. Soon its entire body was covered with flammable barrels. The girl then took out an exploding disk form her utility belt in one hand and charged a blue star bolt with the other.

Mysterious Girl: "Sleep tight you slimy bastard."

She threw the disk at the creature then fired her star bolt. Robin noticed it and wouldn't like the results of it.

Robin: "Raven, shield us now!"

Raven quickly formed a shield around the team. The disk then hit Plasmus at the center and then the blue star bolt hit the disk, causing a humongous explosion with debris and sludge raining down. Once the blast was clear and everything went back to normal, Raven put the shield down. The team quickly approached the center of the blast where they saw a skinny sleeping man that was Plasmus. The team that looked up at the strange girl who was approaching them.

Mysterious Girl: "You know, he was more of a nuisance from my time. Can't believe that he's weak at this time. Took him out too quick."

The team had questioning faces as question marks appeared on top of their heads. They immediately shook it off as Robin talked to the girl.

Robin: "Thanks for helping us stop Plasmus. But we haven't got your name yet."

The girl gave a generous smile as she took off her sunglasses. As she opened her eyes, the team just stared in awe. Her eyes were almost identical to Starfire's except hers was light blue on the outer layer and dark blue around her pupil and have jet-black Tamaranean eyebrows above her eyes.

Mysterious Girl: "My name is Nightfire."
