A/N: here I am, All right so I updated. I have to explain something to you
guys before I continue this story is about Mage, not the Teen Titans. So
there is going to be a pretty good amount of time till they come in. Maybe
half of the story will be only with her or only four to five chapters. I
don't know, my characters haven't told me yet. The Teen Titans will come
in, and WILL play a large part in this story. Don't worry.
Disclaimer: I do not own the Teen Titans, or their world or villains. I do own Mage, yet I have no plot to own. &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
I looked up at the clock and realized that it was closing time. Apparently Mrs. McKinley had figured that out also.
She took care of her apron, and she and her husband grabbed their coats. "See you later Amanda dear." She told me kindly. "Would you mind closing up for us?"
"Oh, of course not Mrs., McKinley! You go ahead, everything will be fine here," I said reassuringly, picking up a broom as I spoke.
"All right, thank you," she said gratefully, and she and her husband left. It was five o'clock, and I needed to close shop.
I calmly began to tidy the store; you'd be surprised how much dirt can be collected in a day! I had finished sweeping and was working on dusting the shelves.
Mage! Mage! the stoves exclaimed frantically. The entities call me Mage, they say it is more true to me than Amanda.
I snapped my head around, What is it? I asked, running around to the kitchen.
The loaf in me is burning, the stove told me calmly.
I gave them a glare while taking out the bread, it was perfect. You didn't have to scare me over something as little as BREAD! I admonished grumpily.
I know, it replied, But it was so much fun!
I growled, but didn't argue further, as close as I had come to a heart attack; I still saved the bread. I took the bread, and set it in the shelves, then I put the ready to cook bread in the freezer, to wait for tomorrow.
I finished tidying, and looked at the clock. It was five thirty, with a smile I locked the door with my spare key, and headed to the park.
I enjoyed the walk, the human silence was still novel to me. I decided to listen in on the objects in Jump City. They always tell you best what kind of place their town/city is.
Have you heard about the mugging in Southern Road? a car asked a time meter.
No, what happened? the time meter asked. I was puzzled; normally a city doesn't take notice of human affairs.
Well, the car began, sounding just like an old gossip, Some men came in, blasting people and buildings alike!
Oh no! gasped the meter.
The car obviously pleased with the reaction, continued, Well, just when the old blue building was put in danger the Teen Titans arrived!
The meter gasped, the car continued, Yes, and they saved the people AND the building. Afterwards they helped rebuild all of the damage that had been wreaked.
The meter sniffed, Ah yes, as good as their intentions are, they tend to be sloppy in their work. Many a meter has fallen for the greater good. If a meter could puff out its chest, this one would have.
I continued on my way, everywhere I heard about the Teen Titans, from objects and people alike. It was like they had grafitied their name all over EVERYONES mind!
I walked into Jump City Park, puzzled. Suddenly I brightened; there was the nameless girl. She was sitting by a pool of water, playing with some gold fish. This park was REALLY fancy.
"Hey there!" I called out, walking over cheerfully.
"Hi!" she called back, standing up to greet me.
Immediately it got awkward, it was almost like a first date, know what I mean? I finally decided to break the ice, with a very stupid question.
"What's your name?" I asked suddenly.
She gave me a weird look, and then comprehension dawned. "OH! I am so STUPID! I can't believe I didn't tell you my NAME!" she exclaimed loudly.
I couldn't help but laugh, "Well, I didn't tell you mine either," I pointed out.
She gave me a grin, "Yeah well, you're already stupid," she said nonchalantly.
"Hey!" I exclaimed in fake grumpyness (is that a word).
She gave me a grin; "My name is Kristen."
"Mine is, Amanda," I told her with a grimace, "Isn't it awful?"
Kristen just laughed, "No, I like it."
"It's boring, and dull, and NORMAL," I griped to her.
"Well, what do you think Kristen is," she said with feigned anger.
"Yeah but you make it special," I told her honestly.
"You do the same with Amanda," she told me seriously.
I didn't like being proved wrong, as flattered as I felt, "Yeah, well, I still don't like it," I grumbled. She just laughed.
"What's the Teen Titans?" I asked suddenly.
She looked at me in amazement, "You don't know who the TEEN TITANS are?" she asked, gasping in exaggerated shock.
"Well, no, that's why I asked," I replied slowly.
Kristen just laughed, "I'm just fooling with you, silly! The Teen Titans are the protectors of this city."
"Oh," I breathed, "That explains a lot."
She gave me a puzzled look, "What does that explain?" she asked me.
"Well, everyone I pass is always talking about the Teen Titans, with a capital 'T'!"
She laughed, "Well, there are five of them, Raven, Cyborg, Beast Boy, Starfire, and Robin," she breathed, obviously he was her crush.
I laughed, "What are they like, and why are they your protectors?"
"Well," she began seriously, "They have super powers. Raven is telekinetic, Cyborg is a cyborg, Beast Boy is a little green boy that can change into animals, Starfire is an alien that can fly, shoot starbolts, and wear an impossibly short mini skirt without her father killing her." I couldn't help but laugh at that. "And Robin is an EXTREEMLY cut guy who has cool gadgets and is great at hand to hand fighting."
"So, everyone one but Robin has something other than human about them?" I asked.
"Yup," she replied cheerfully.
And so our friendship began, we became so close it was almost frightening. You would think that we were joined at the hip. We became so close, that I couldn't stand not telling her about the largest part of me, my powers. Finally I realized, why don't I tell her? What is wrong with telling someone I completely trust?
We met at our favorite hang out at the park. It was a river that ran by a willow tree, I told you this place was fancy.
"Kristen," I said suddenly, breaking our companionable silence.
"Mmm hmm," she asked drowsily.
"I need to tell you something I have never told any one, well besides my family."
She rolled over on to her side and looked up at me, waiting.
I paused, and suddenly all my worries and nervousness seemed stupid. "Well, I can talk to the Wind, and anything that isn't human," I told her calmly.
She raised an eyebrow, "Good one, you had me going for a second." She replied in a bored tone.
I decided to demonstrate, the question was, what should I do... I could transform myself, but that always hurt. Me screaming wasn't the best way to introduce my powers. I could, lift something, yeah; I'll do that.
I took a breath and focused on my own inner language. When I had made the transfer, I spoke, Kristen, friend, ally, rise, float on the air.
It took great power on my part, she was heavy and unwilling, but she slowly rose and floated over my head. I wasn't worried, out hang out spot was secluded, no one ever came here.
She gasped, but didn't scream, after a second she uttered one word, "Cool."
I started laughing, and decided to lower her, Kristen, thank you, please lower yourself back to the ground. She softly floated down, the wind rocking her, until she was settled between the roots of a tree.
That was how she came to know of my powers, and she never told anyone. &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
A/N: I am probably going to update the next chapter right now, I hope you don't mind.
Cerberus5550: Yeah, if I was Mage I would use my powers too. She is different form the other Titans though, you'll see why soon. Not in a bad way though, it is actually a good un-angst ridden way. What clothing does Jinx wear, could you give me a paragraph of her talking, and do you thin kshe would be a good combatant for Mage. Does she use words to Jinx? Cause Mage would be able to curse people, so a curse and jinx fighting... Also, any ideas on a new villian?
