"HERE I AM! ROCKEN' LIKE A HURRACANE!" I just did that so I could get in the mood for this next story. It's an AU and it's basically what it would be like if the Titans were a rock band and competing in the Battle of the Bands contest. There's gonna be a lot of chapters. RobxStar, BBxRea, CyxBee. P.S. I've never actually been to a Battle of the Band's contest, so sorry if it's not exactly like the real thing.

Disclaimer: I don't own the Titans, but I do own the songs the sing in the contests.

Battle of the Bands: Titan's style.

Chapter One: Surprise!

"Is everyone here?" asked Richard Grayson for the umpteenth time.

"Yes, dude, we're all here," said Garfield Logan, exasperatedly.

"No, we're not," said Rachel Roth. "Kori isn't here."

"Yeah," said Victor Stone, "where is Star?"

"I don't know," said Dick, pacing. "She said she'd be here."

"Ah, come on, Robin," said Gar, kicking back. "You know Starfire. She's probably doing her hair or something." As he spoke, Kori Anders walked through the door.

"Sorry I'm late," she said, sitting down. "I had to help Galfor before I left. Did I miss Dick's big 'surprise'?"

"No," said Rach, "you're just in time for the big finally."

"Ok, guys, come on," said Dick. And he lead his friends to the garage were they practiced. The lights were off.

"Um," said Kori, "why are the lights off?" Just then, Dick turned them on. The group of friends gasped.

In the middle of the room lay beautiful and new instruments.

There was a set of lime green drums with a black and yellow "T" on the front, a non-photo blue key board, and indigo electric bass guitar, and an orange tambourine and bongo drums, trimmed with pastel purple. The group went to their new instruments.

"Wow," said Gar, examining the drums. "This is so awesome!"

"Tell me about it!" said Vic, exploring the keyboard. "This thing's got a hundred different settings!"

"Oh, Dick!" said Kori, giving Richard a bone-crushing hug after looking at the bongos. "This is wonderful!"

"Yeah," said Rach, trying on the indigo guitar. "What did we do to deserve this?"

"Here," said Dick, pulling out a peace of paper. "Check it out." And he showed the flyer to the rest of them. It read:

Battle of the Bands

Think you got what it takes to be a rock star?

Come try your skills at Jump City's Battle of the Bands contest

May 7th, 2005 at Jump City's Community Theater.

The winners will compete again in Gotham City on May 19th

The Grand prize is $10,000.

"That is why you have new instruments," he said, smiling at their astonished looks.

"No way," said Gar, taking the sheet. "How did you score us a spot in this!"

"Well, it helps when you're adopted by the richest person in Jump City," he said with a grin.

"We're actually competing!" said an excited Victor.

"Yep"

"Wait," said Rachel. " 'May 7th' , that's in a week!"

"Which means we had better start practicing," said Dick. Then he got his own scarlet guitar and plugged it in. The rest followed suit. Then they played "Smoke on the Water" and practiced their songs until it was time for the band to leave.

They took their instruments (except for Garfield's drums, which he would pick up the next day) and said their goodbyes.

Even though it was 11:30 pm, Dick wasn't that tired. He was to excited to be tired. They were actually going to play in the Battle of the Bands! He felt his chest swell with pride as sleep slowly claimed him as its victim.

: )Well? What do ya think? Please tell me! Oh, and no one has powers, and Dick is not the Boy Wonder in disguise. I'll explain every one's back story in the next chapters. And Terra's in this one, too. 'Till my next chapter!

Luv ya
