Jade woke up at 6 o'clock again. This time though, she remembered to get a memory. She went on the room and sat pretzel style. She closed her eyes and put her palms facing up, on her knees. The last time I saw Richard. That night when Grog came and took her to Alkia. My last night on Earth, before Alkia. She concentrated on that night. Immediately, the wind blew through. Her hair was flowing all over her. She was too absorbed in her memory to notice a tired Beast Boy observing her.
"Okay, she's doing some sort of meditation. This goes as a check under Raven," Beast Boy said, as he put a tally mark under Raven's name. He then left the roof and went to watch some cartoon on TV.
Jade finished within five minutes. She hated to be reminded of that night, but it was one of her strongest memories, and the most hurtful. She took her hair and brushed it. She got up and went to the common room. There, she got to a computer and put in 'Richard Grayson'. I need to find out where he is. To her dismay, there was almost nothing on him. Where could you be? She decided to try again another day. She just decided to read some news on the computer or serf the net.
"Okay. She's a computer user. That goes under Cyborg," Beast said as he put a tally mark under Cyborg's name. Soon enough, the other Titans woke up and went to do other things in other parts of the Tower. Jade soon left the computer and headed for an empty room with a mirror in it, Beast Boy was closely behind. She sat in front of the mirror and took out her hairbrush and makeup. Jade had a way to keep things hidden until she wanted to use them. It was like she had a secret box. All Jade had to do was to hold the object she wanted to put away, think about it and say "Hashumay."
She brought all of her long, dark hair around to the front of her body and brushed it lightly. Jade took some pride in her hair. She rarely has a bad hair day. Her hair had one long layer, then a light layer on top that was slightly shorter than the long layer. Her hair was usually straight, except for when she wanted it curly or wavy. Jade has the power to change the way she looked. Everything but her eyes. She could make her hair pink, for all she cared. She could make herself short, or fat, or old looking. Of course, besides the eyes, everything was natural. (She would occasionally change her hairstyle though.) Today, Jade wanted to braid her hair, so she did. Her long dark hair stayed on her back; braided.
She then lightly put on some mascara, eyeliner, blush, and lip-gloss. She never wore a lot of makeup, but she thought that the mascara and eyeliner brought some attention to her eyes. Beast Boy brought along Cyborg.
"Okay, she's putting on some makeup and played with her hair," Cyborg said.
"Yeah, and seeing how Raven just… isn't like… that, the tally goes under Starfire. She likes to play with her hair and experiment with earth cosmetics," Beast Boy said.
"'K," Cyborg said. Later that day, they saw Jade working out. She was just doing some strange sword exercise. Then, she did some fighting motions, as if she really was fighting hand to hand with someone.
"This definitely goes under Robin," Cyborg said.
This went on for the next few days. Beast Boy and Cyborg would observe Jade reading, or meditating, or going for a jog, or working out, or playing video games, or cooking, or braiding her hair, or swimming, or watching TV. After her sixth day with the Titans, Cyborg said, "Man! She does everything! She's like, all of us, put together!"
Meanwhile, Jade didn't know anything about Beast Boy and Cyborg's doings. She tried to adapt and act as normal as possible. What she liked best was meditating, fighting, or being alone. That is, alone with Robin. He seemed to always be with her; watching her, training with her, or just talking. He was good company.
