Alright, my first Teen titans fic staring Jericho. First the disclaimer:
Disclaimer: I don't own anything in this fic except for the storyline and the character 'Itsukai'.
There's a slight crossover with Shaman King and D. Gray man since the 'Itsukai' is a shaman and 'Ravi' is an exorcist. If you'vewatched or read D. Gray man, you'll know thebasic powers that they have. I won't reveal anything until I have to.Also, The character Ravi is not mine and from D. Gray man. I always wanted to use him in a fic since he has that fun look to him. His name romanized is "Lavi" but I prefer typing "Ravi"
"What a beautiful day," Ravi cheered as he walked into the main lobby of the titans' tower stretching his arms, "What's for breakfast?" He opened the fridge. A disappointed sigh soon came from his mouth as he saw the empty fridge. Ravi turned around and grabbed a banana, "I guess this is it." He stuck it into his mouth and tore off a soft chunk of banana flesh.
"Hey Ravi," Itsukai called from behind him. She took an apple from the fruit tray and bit into it, "No breakfast?"
"Except for fruit," Ravi replied as he bit into the banana again, "This banana tastes different than the usual ones."
Itsukai nodded, "Same with this apple," She turned to the opening doors. Jericho stepped into the room with his cotton, pale blue pajamas that could probably slip right off of him due to his small frame, "Hey Jericho,"
Jericho turned to both of them and waved. He looked at the fruit they were eating and waved his hands in front of him frantically. He proceeded to talk to them through hand signs.
Ravi blinked a few times as he saw watched his hand signs, "Is this some kind of ninja trick thing from Naruto?"
Itsukai watched his hand movements carefully, "Uh…I caught the words fruit, Styrofoam, and…um…eaten?"
It took them a minute until they realized what Jericho was talking about. They spat out the 'fruit' and threw the rest away.
Jericho turned to the couch where Robin and Cyborg played their video game. He approached them to see Raven sitting beside them reading a small novel and drinking herbal tea. He blushed and ran back to the kitchen area where Ravi and Itsukai laughed at him.
"You'll never get a date with her if you never ask." Itsukai muttered in a sing-song voice.
Jericho turned to her with rage written all over his face. He momentarily forgot about his voiceless problem and ranted at her.
Ravi laughed a bit, "It's like we muted the TV."
Itsukai sighed deeply, "I can't work like this." She grabbed Jericho's chin and pointed his eyes straight at Ravi's. Jericho jumped into Ravi, "You can talk now right?"
"Yeah, even though his vocabulary is very, very small." Jericho who's inside Ravi replied, "I really do like her. I'm just afraid she'll reject me since she is known for her "coldness"."
"Wow, your vocabulary really is dumbed down. It's called "ignorant nature"." Itsukai replied, "Don't worry." She put an arm around his shoulders, "What's the worse she can do besides reject you? If she rejects you, go get another girl."
There was a small pause of silence. Jericho smiled confidently and nodded, "Okay, I'll try it." Itsukai gestured to Raven sitting at the couch reading. Jericho turned around and fell to his knees, "I can't do it."
Itsukai sighed, "If you can do that, at least leave Ravi so I can talk with him. We're going to watch Pirates of the Caribbean 2 this afternoon."
Jericho left Ravi's body and walked back out the lobby. Itsukai and Ravi stood by the kitchen.
"Poor guy," Ravi muttered, "Maybe we should try something to get them together."
Itsukai muttered, "Yeah, maybe," She yawned, "But, we should just stay out of this. Less work for us," They both exited the lobby.
Robin and Cyborg paused their game and turned around.
Robin turned to Cyborg, "Are they aware that we heard every single word?"
Cyborg turned back to the game, "I'm pretty sure that girl was aware." Cyborg turned to Raven, "Did you know?"
"Yep," She replied plainly.
"Hey Cyborg," Robin murmured, "Who are those two anyway?"
Cyborg scratched his head, "The girl said she was a 'shaman' and the boy said he was an 'exorcist'. They claimed they were honorary titans." He turned back to the game, "Oh well,"
"Why would we need an exorcist?" Robin asked, "What does a shaman do?"
"Who knows?"
The day soon passed away as the sky was dyed a soft shade of ginger. Ravi wore a baggy pair of khakis and an ocean coloured shirt that said "Life is like a boat so you're screwed if you sink it". He had his usual headband and eye patch on.
Itsukai walked up to him with her usual blood red ribbons in her hair and black miniskirt. She had a crimson coloured shirt that said "If you can't stand the heat, get out of my way".
Jericho wore a plain white sweater with a pair of tight fitting black jeans.
"What's with the fancy clothes?" Ravi muttered to Jericho, "We're going to watch a movie, not eat at a fancy restaurant."
Itsukai snorted, "Even if we did eat at a fancy restaurant you would dress like that." Itsukai looked in the mirror and fixed her hair ribbons, "Where's your date Jericho?"
Jericho seemed surprise. He blushed a bit and began his hand signs.
Itsukai examined them slowly, "Let see…Oh! Ravi is my 'friend' date. Aren't you going ask Raven out?"
Jericho blushed and turned away.
Ravi smiled, "I am going to enjoy this."
Itsukai mirrored his smiled, "Damn straight."
They both grabbed Jericho's shoulders and pushed him straight into Raven's room. Ravi and Itsukai smiled and waved to him as the doors closed. Jericho slammed on the door with his fists twice before giving up and turning around to face Raven.
Raven stared at him. A small smile lit her lips as she closed her books and stood up, "Is there something you want to ask me?"
Jericho blushed and turned his head. He held his hands together and shook gently. What's the worse that can happen? He swallowed hard before he began his hand sign speech. "Ravi and Itsukai are going to the movies to watch Pirates of the Caribbean 2. Would you like to come with me?"
Raven smiled, "I'd love to." She opened the door and let him out, "Let me change into something more casual first." She closed the door.
Ravi waved his hands in anticipation, "Well?"
Jericho punched his fists into the air in victory. He felt like screaming at the top of his longs on top of titans' tower but then he remembered that he was mute. An alarm suddenly blared as the halls were lit with flashing red light. Raven ran out of the room. She wore a plain, dark blue sweater with a pair of slim plain jeans. She ran down to the titans' lobby.
Itsukai looked up at the flashing lights, "Looks like a titans' emergency. Tough luck for you that Raven's an official titan and she has to go on this kind of stuff."
Ravi placed his hands behind his head, "She dresses as plain as you do."
Jericho ran after her. The two shrugged and ran after Jericho.
Robin held onto his communicator and stared up at the screen, "Trouble, there's a disturbance at the diamond mines just south of here. Titans, go!"
Cyborg, Beast Boy, and Starfire followed as Robin ran out. Raven followed after them with Jericho next to her. She stopped and held him back, "This mission might be too hard for you to handle. You should stay back and guard the tower."
Jericho looked down in disappointment. He looked up and nodded.
Raven smiled and turned around. She stopped as she saw Ravi and Itsukai, "Who are they?" Jericho shrugged, "Oh well, if Robin let you live here I guess its okay." Raven ran out the door.
Jericho walked over to the couch drearily. He sat down with his knees hugged to his chest. Itsukai and Ravi walked up to him.
"She'll go out with you after her mission's done." Ravi muttered.
"It'll all work out." Itsukai replied. She looked at the door and glanced at Jericho, "There's nothing the teen titans can't handle."
The five titans appeared at the scene of the crime. Everything was silent and normal.
Beast Boy looked around, "What gives?" He looked into a small hole, "Besides this hole, there's nothing else that's kind of suspicious."
The ground below them suddenly exploded. Creatures that resembled zombies rush towards them. Many of them had huge claws while others actually held giant machine guns.
"This is new." Cyborg murmured. He shot them done with his sonic cannon. Every part that Cyborg blasted off regenerated quickly, "Uh…okay, what now?"
Robin took out his bow staff and whacked at the zombies swiftly, "Just keep hammering them,"
Starfire rained her starbolts down on them. The zombies weren't affected by her blast in anyway. Starfire screamed as a flying zombie grabbed her and knocked her to the ground, "Robin!"
"Starfire," Robin rushed to help her but he was knocked unconscious by a zombie. He was thrown down the hole along with Starfire when they knocked her unconscious.
Cyborg kept firing his sonic cannon, "Okay, I think it's time to retreat."
"You think?" Beast Boy retorted as he transformed into a crow to fly away.
Raven held up her barriers, "I have a date tonight. I'm not letting these zombies ruin my night out!" She summoned all her magic and pushed them away.
Cyborg turned to her, "What?" A zombie suddenly blindsided him with an overly large scythe. Cyborg screamed as his left leg was completely severed. He was then thrown from the ground and into the hole.
Beast Boy flew to Raven, "We have to get out of here!" Beast Boy then transformed into a gorilla and smashed through the zombies close to him.
Raven felt her barriers weakening, "I can't hold up against these things any longer." She felt a blunt object knock hard against the back of her skull. Beast Boy felt the same impact on his skull. The zombie with the scythe stood in-between both of them.
They were both thrown into the hole after they were confirmed to be unconscious. The zombie with the scythe gestured to the other zombies and they all sunk back into the ground. The zombie with the scythe jumped down the hole.
Jericho felt a sharp pain in his heart as he fell from the couch and onto the ground.
"What's wrong?" Ravi shouted as he halted the movie and bent down to help Jericho, "Jericho? Jericho!"
Jericho fell unconscious to the floor.
Okay, there will be another character mentioned in this fic in D. Gray man. I'll try and change them a little so anyone reading D. Gray man won't be spoiled. Please R & R
