"Letters" - First Impressions.

Disclaimer: I don't own the Titans nor do i own anyone that is originally from the show. Chris, Kat, and Tucker however are my own creations.

Chris sat on his bed starring at the papers. He was supposed to be doing homework but his mind was elsewhere. He just couldn't concentrate. The papers in his hand were black with gold trim. They had golden letters on them written in an exotic handwriting. The were from Raven Roth. A girl that was famous. He cherished the letters like the golden pen writing was made from the pure mineral. He was so excited. He had gotten the second this morning.

"Chris,

I will be there by 12:00

Raven Roth."

Was all the note had to say. It had appeared out of nowhere. Chris assumed it was with her power. He was waiting to see her. He had posters of all the Teen Titans on his wall. They were like idols now. Chris had dreamed, like most kids, of having powers at a young age. No one had ever expected it to happen ever though. He had recently acquired himself powers. He could shoot green bolts from his body that most didn't even see. Raven was coming to discuss the power with him.

He breathed in the sweet Saturday air. It was a beautiful day. Sun in the sky, No clouds. The type where the young kids ran around playing their little games. Chris smiled seeing a few kids running around outside his window. He looked over at his clock. "11:30." Resonated from his mouth with a sound of slight sadness. he had just checked it at 11:29 and 11:28 before that. His eyes traveled up the one visible pale leg behind the clock.

It molded into a blueish purple cloak. It was of a girl about Chris' age. She was stepping forward and had one arm out. Her face was hidden mostly in black. You could see lavender eyes and her mouth. The one arm that protruded from the cloak was covered in a black orb of energy. It had a long black sleeve sliding up it. The end of the sleeve was actually armor that shielded part of the girls hand. The cuff was purple and below her wrist.

He heard a knock at the door of his room. "Yes?" He asked. He had been staring at the poster for 15 minutes examining it. He was mostly in thought seeing through the slab of paper. He looked to the door waiting for the answer.

"Chris a girl is here to see you. She says she knows you but I've never seen her before. What should I do?" He heard his mothers voice through the door. He panicked slightly. He hadn't expected her so quickly. He shoved his homework in his bag.

"Send her up." He didn't hear footsteps for awhile and then smiled. He waited watching the door intently for any sign of movement. His heart was beating quickly. It stopped after a little while. No one came. He looked at the clock. Fifteen more minutes had passed and no one had come. What was going on? He was getting ready to investigate when he heard the handle turn. The door opened slowly and a girl peaked around the corner. Chris stared at her.

Her skin was rather pale. She was in jeans and a pink shirt. He blinked looking her over. Her eyes were a strange shade of purple. He lips highlighted by a light shade of lipstick. Even a little bit of light eye shadow. Chris was confused at who this was. Then he saw the hair. It was long and in a pony tail but he would know that shade of lavender hair anywhere. He blinked a few times. "Raven?" The girl smiled lightly and scratched at the pink sweater.

"Yes it's me. I am trying to not draw attention to myself. Now we are going ok? I had to talk to your mom. She said it was fine. You'll be living with me for a few weeks. Training." She walked forward. and grabbed his hand. He blinked and gulped feeling himself blush slightly. He had kinda liked her for awhile. A black shadow swooped them up. Everything around them was outlined in white. The outlines wavered till they became static against the black. Then they wavered into new shapes. The veil of black left them and he was in a new room. "This will be your room. You are henceforth being tested to become a Titan. Star was excited about the new friend and made you an outfit." She pointed to some clothes on the dresser. "I would suggest avoiding everything star makes though. Your T-comm is by the clothes. Robin has a message for you taped on it. Now excuse me as I change. If you peek your dead."

He blinked as she left. The thought hadn't even crossed his mind till she said something. He decided to read the message to occupy his time. He grabbed the T-comm and opened it. The item was like a compact. But instead of make up it had buttons. A little screen popped up. He pressed an icon of the screen that was labeled 'Messages.' He then clicked the first one. "Now running message. 'Welcome to the Titans.' By all the Titans." A few of the people popped up on the screen. "Welcome to the Teen Titans friend. I hope you like the traditional 'Friendship Stew' I made you." It was of course Starfire.

"Star how many times must we tell you to stop cooking. No one likes Tamaranian food, not even the Tamaranians." Beast Boy spoke up. Chris knew the four on the screen by heart. Starfire was from Tamaran. A planet somewhere far away. She was rather ditsy from her lack of knowledge. She kinda scared him. She had a nice body though. Everyone noticed that about her. It was also common knowledge that no one saw her body. Robin an her were an item and thought they hid it well. So she was massively forbidden grounds.

Beast Boy was a strange one as well. To start of he was green and furry. Also he had fangs. Most of all he was a vegetarian. For good reason too. He became animals. If he ate anything that was alive it would be like cannibalism. HE has been most the animals on the earth. Heck he has even been a T-Rex. "Guys hush we got to get back to the message." It was Robin.

Most called this on Boy Wonder. The title made sense. He looked like his was a nerd at first site. He was pretty small. However he was really built well. His body didn't show it but he can roll a fight with a giant 12' man made of rock. He was a master of many fighting styles and he played to win. He was quite an amazing kid. "Anyway were are here to tell you about your training. You will train with Raven till it is fit that you can control you power. Then I will train you on fighting." A big man woke up from the corner.

"We started yet?" It was Cyborg. He was part machine and part man. One of his arms could become a cannon that shot a big blue sonic beam. He did most the technical stuff actually. He was part machine himself so why shouldn't he make more machines? It was actually rumored that he made the machine part of himself.

"Yes Cy we did but it's pretty much over. You might as well go back to..." The message stopped while Robin was still talking. Chris switched to the next message. "Now running message. 'About your power.' By Robin." The message started. "Ok Chris. Batman, Cyborg, Raven, and I have been discussing your power. We have come to the conclusion that it is condensed emotions. Pure emotional energy. It makes no sense to me either. But Raven and Batman said it made perfect sense. Anyway you could see it because of course You know your emotions. Kat as you call her is probably just in tune with the feelings of those around her. The bully Tucker, As most know bullies just like the look of fear in the victims eyes. If they know fear they may know all emotions. That is just an idea though. It could be anything." The message ended and Chris looked up to see raven sitting on what was to be his bed.

"Ok well time to practice." She said not smiling. She was in her normal attire again. The girl stood leaving the room. Chris followed. He wasn't suited to train right now. At least not to him. He was wearing baggy pants that looked punk. They were black and green his favorite colors. Metal hung from them in random places. His shirt was black. Sneakers shot out from under the cuffs of the edges of his pant. His green eyes shot at her. He tightened his belt and walked with her. They made it too a field. "Ok here we fight. First though show me your power."

He blinked. He searched himself to find it but nothing happened. "Well?" He searched and tried again. Nothing. "I'm waiting." He said an impatient mocking tone. He searched again alittle angrier. He found something but couldn't connect it. "Just as I thought a waste of my time. Another wannabe pretending he had powers to meet one of us." He was getting angrier. He felt a barrier burst power flooding into him. He memorized the spot deep down where it came from to get to it later. "Show me something now or I'm leaving ok." He opened his eyes and they were a more vibrant green then before. He kicked along the ground.

A line of green followed his foot and shot off in in the shape of a small ball. Wind shot up around it sending dust into the air. Raven smiled. "Thought getting you angry would help." He blinked at her.

"What?" He calmed for a second then got angry. "You meant to make me angry!" He swung at her a bolt of energy flying. She encased it in energy mouthing her chant. She then threw the off to the side. His anger was unarmed. "You... You can see it?" She laughed.

"Of course I control my emotions. I see it brightly. It almost hurts my eyes. Your hair looks pretty interesting though." She smirked. "Now remember the origin of the power and tap into it. I will teach you to control emotions later first is to controlling it." He blinked.

"Ok..." He thought back to the spot. The well of energy in his chest. Right behind his heart. "I have found and memorized it." Raven smiled.

"Ok now create a sphere." He concentrated. Nothing. He thrust an open hand at the wall. A sphere flew at it. "Stop it!" He concentrated and the sphere slowed. It stopped right before the wall. "that's a good start. I need you to be able to create one without chucking it though. Try again." He blinked and thought of the other one being gone. It dissolved. He then tried to create another. It didn't work. He snapped and a really small sphere spun in the air. he concentrated on it throwing more energy on it making it grow. "Good." HE kept making it grow then tried to stop. It kept growing. It became enveloped in black. His connection with it ceased. Raven crushed it into nothingness. "Well at least you have potential. Let's go back in and get some lunch. You like pizza?" He blinked and walked with her.

"Raven its common knowledge you hate pizza." He looked at her. She smiled her small half smile.

"No it's common knowledge i don't like tofu. It's a rumor that i don't like pizza. I just don't like it around the others. B.B. and Cy start fighting over it." He blinked and got to the living room sitting. "You gotta call. I don't care what type you get. As long as it has no tofu or pineapple." She tossed him a piece of paper. "There's the number."

He called and ordered Pepperoni and Sausage. The pizza was delivered soon. They had sat in silence. She didn't want to read. He didn't want to sound stupid around someone famous. The ate in silence to. Afterwords they sat in silence till Chris finally broke the silence. "So you reading The Hitchhikers Guide to The Galaxy? I didn't know you liked Sci-Fi. I would expect Edgar Allen Poe or someone like that." Raven looked up at him.

"I'm gonna tell you what I told B.B. when he caught me with Star Wars books. If you know whats good for you you still don't know I like Sci-Fi. It's a little secret liking of mine. B.B. got me interested." She glared. "Now again. You didn't see or hear anything about me liking Sci-Fi."
