The five Titans gathered in the living room, it was now late at night, and I had apparently gone to bed.
"Alright Titans," Robin started, "We should get straight to the point, what do you all think of Chris, not to mention his background story."
Cyborg started, "I still have a hard time believing that story of his."
"Well," Robin replied, "There are only three options relating to that story. He's either crazy, lying, or telling the truth. Just from being around him today, we can all tell quite well that he's not insane."
Raven added in, "During his story, I was trying to sense his sincerity, he was perfectly sincere. So that rules out him lying."
"That means…he must have been telling the truth," observed Beast Boy.
"Well, that still is kinda hard to stomach," said Cyborg.
Raven looked straight at him, "I am from another dimension, You are more robot than man, Starfire is from another planet, and Beast Boy is a shapeshifter, isn't that also 'hard to stomach'?"
"I see your point," said Robin.
"I believe that he is nice, and kind, and strong, and would make a good addition to the team," stated Starfire, her mind clearly made up.
"I agree," said Cyborg, "If nothing else, his combat abilities could serve this team well. Not to mention the training that he's supposedly been through."
"He seems more settled than most people that I have met," said Raven, "I actually wouldn't mind him being around."
"Dude, he may be quiet and controlled now," said Beast Boy, "but he won't be when I'm done with him."
"Yeah," commented Cyborg with a smirk, "that worked wonderfully with Raven didn't it?"
Beast Boy tried to think of a comeback, but couldn't, so he just sat and sulked.
"Back to the decision," said Robin, "I'm for him joining, after all, with as good as he seems to be, I'd much rather have him fighting with us than against us. So let's just set it to a vote, but remember it has to be unanimous to get him in. Any against?" silence, "Ok, so who's for it?"
Robin was answered by four "Aye's" which he added his own to. "So it's settled then, we let him in on a…probationary basis, no codes, no passwords, no in depth info, agreed?"
"Agreed," was the answer received from the entire crew.
Hidden deep within the shadows outside the door, a single silent figure walked through the halls. Assuming the rest of the Titans to be asleep, I had figured it was ok to get up and wander. This was a side effect of the mako overdose I had received. Since mako is condensed lifestream, which is the energy of life, I contained a massive amount of life energy. The energy kept me awake, and caused me to wander even in the darkest night. I didn't need to sleep, and the rare times I did were simply to pass time.
As I strolled past the door to the main room, I heard the Titans inside. I only heard one word, "Agreed."
Deciding this to be a private meeting, I continued on my way, exploring the tower. By morning I planned to have covered the entire complex. I'd decided to not bother wasting this time with sleep until I'd explored not only the tower, but also the entire city and its surrounding area.
I heard the sound of the five Titans splitting up, and I was between them and their rooms, I didn't want them to know that I was out and about; they might think I was eavesdropping. Ducking back into a corner, I cast darkness around myself so I was completely hidden from view.
The Titans passed by my hiding place without so much as a thought that there was someone hiding inside there. After they were gone, I dispelled the darkness and slipped out of my corner to continue exploring.
