This story is for one of my good friends Juliana. We were at lunch one day and she told me she had a dream about trying to feed my peanut butter ( I am extremely allergic to peanut butter). So I told her I was going to write a story about her killing me, to get back at her. This is it, I hope you like my story.

Titans to the rescue?

Emily stepped out into the chilly night air. She had just got finished working a ten hour shift at the resturant. She had gotten some good tips tonight. She started off towards her apartment, walking on the crumbling sidewalk. The buildings loomed above her, tall and foreboding. A cold wind slapped her face making it numb. She put her gloved hands on her cheeks.

I need to get a car. Brrr, its really cold tonight.

She looked up towards the sky. The stars twinkled in the vast dark black sky. She had left the builing behind and was now walking by the Ocean. It smelled salty, she had always loved that smell. It lapped at the rocks making slapping noises. She looked out and saw some boats and barges making their way out to sea.

A blinking light caught her gaze, the titan tower. Whenever she looked at the tower it made her feel safe. The Teen Titans were one of the best crime fighters in the country, if not the best. The tower was in the shape of a T, it had blue lights outlining it.

She saw a red flash in one of the huge glass windows of the tower. The next thing she saw was a pretty girl with red hair and a purple outfit flying out of the tower. Her eyes blazed green, she was carrying a half man, half robot. He had mechanical parts making him a good crime fighter. Behind these two came a cute boy on a motorcycle. He had black spiked hair and a spandex costume withe a red cape. He wore a thin black mask making him very mysterious. Following him was a green pterodactyl and a girl with a blue hooded cape. The cape covered her face but Emily could still see her features. She had striking gray eyes and a jewel on her forehead.

The titans whizzed past Emily and headed back into downtown. Emily watched them until they disappeared from sight.

I wouldn't want to be one of them. I appreciate what they do, but I would never want to be one of them. They are on call day and night, they fight fierce villians. They must get really tired of the hero save the day gig, I would.

She turned a corner and decided to go through a couple alleys so she could get home faster.

I've worked a long day and I don't feel like taking the long way home.

She looked down the alleyway, a cat ran from a trash can into an open door. She hesitated, then relized she was being silly.

Why should I be afraid? All the bad guys are in jail! No one is going to hurt me.

She started off down the alley, it smelled musty and like rotting garbage. She gagged and put a hand over her nose. She kept walking steering clear of the garbage that littered the ground.

Emily...

She whirrled around looking for who had called her name. There was no one there only the cat staring at her with its blue eyes. She turned back around and started walking faster, she was almost to the end of the alley.

Emily... You should have taken the long way home...

Emily screamed and started running. The cat yowled and ran after her. A gust of wind knocked some boxes over. Emily jumped over them. A figure in black jumped down from the roof top, it landed in front of her.

Boo!

Then darkness...
