Yay! Chapter! I...have nothing else to say. Okay, you can read it now.
------------------------
Starfire yawned as she sat up. It had been a relaxing night. She owned a double bed, so she had shared with Fade, but Fade was nowhere to be seen. Starfire got up and got ready, and then wandered down the hall to see Raven coming out of her room.
"Raven! Good morning! Is Midnight still asleep?" Starfire asked. Raven nodded.
"Yeah, I think she'll be up soon though." Raven replied. Raven also had a double bed, so Midnight had shared with her as well. The two girls went out to the kitchen to find Fade already eating breakfast.
"Oh! Good morning Fade! I trust your sleep was pleasant?" Starfire greeted happily.
"It was fine." Fade replied. Raven began making herbal tea and Starfire began to cook a breakfast meal from Tameran. Midnight walked into the kitchen.
"Good morning everyone! Hey, are you making tea, mom? Can I have some?" Midnight inquired. Raven gave her a small smile.
"Sure."
But, the boys (and Fiery) were still asleep. But, Robin was just waking up. He sat up to see Fiery sitting in the hammock that had been brought into his room specifically for her to sleep in. She was watching him with a grin on her face.
"Morning dad! Shall we go get some breakfast! I heard mom get up a few minutes ago, so I wanna get a traditional Tameranian meal!" Fiery exclaimed. Robin got out of bed.
"Ah, sure." Fiery smiled.
"Great! I'm gonna go brush my teeth! You should too!" When they finally got out to breakfast, Fiery went over to eat with Midnight and Fade, leaving Raven, Starfire and Robin to eat together.
But soon enough, Cyborg came out with Metallic, who had also slept in a hammock.
"Good morning!" Metallic said cheerfully.
"Good morning." Everyone replied. So now, everyone was here except for…
"Dude! What is with this kid! He woke me up, and made sure I was all ready and wide awake, and then he just falls asleep in the middle of the hallway!" Beast Boy yelled angrily. He was holding Amp by the arm, but Beast Boy had defiantly dragged him to the kitchen. The future Titans all stared at him for a moment, he was turning a bit blue. Then, they totally freaked out.
"WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL US SOONER?" (Midnight)
"YOU IDIOT!" (Fiery)
"MOVE! LET GO!" (Fade)
"I CAN'T BELIEVE THE MORON FORGOT!" (Metallic)
"Hey! I didn't forget anything!" Beast Boy insisted.
"Not you.HIM!" Metallic yelled.
"Did he even bring it with!" Fade asked.
"He must have! He brings it everywhere!" Midnight insisted.
"What are you talking about?" Beast Boy asked. They all stared at him.
"What's going on?" Robin added. Fade stood up.
"You didn't know?" she asked.
"Didn't know what?" Raven replied.
"I found it!" the all turned to see Metallic holding a small container.
"Uh…sorry." He blushed.
"Gimmie it!" Midnight grabbed it. The titans turned their attention back to Fade.
"Amp has Asthma." She explained.
"He has Asthma, and yet you let him on your team?" Robin inquired.
"Well, he brings his inhaler everywhere, so when he has a hard time breathing, it's usually not a problem. Truthfully, this hasn't happened in a while, but it does happen." Fade continued. They heard coughing. They all turned to see Amp sitting up and quickly regaining his color.
"How do you feel?" Midnight asked. Amp turned to see everyone staring at him.
"Completely humiliated but otherwise fine." He replied. His friends laughed. Beast Boy walked over to Robin.
"That was weird." He whispered. Robin kept his eyes on them.
"Hey, I know you don't like him…but he kind of reminds me of you." He replied.
"What! No way!" Beast Boy argued.
"That's the thing, he's not much like you…but for some reason he reminds me of you." Robin muttered. Beast boy looked at Amp as he chatted with his friends. He wondered how he was anything like him. Fade stood up.
"Well, I'm glad you're feeling better, but…I have work to do." And she left. Starfire watched her leave.
"Um, I shall return shortly." She said before hurrying after her. She found Fade in the room that they were sharing, she was writing in a notebook, probably some plans to catch Junior.
"Fade?" Fade looked up.
"Oh, hey Starfire."
"Fade, are you not worried about your friend?" she asked.
"He's fine, you saw." She replied.
"But…do you not wish to do the 'hanging out' with them?" Fade looked at her and smiled.
"Look, I really like my friends, I just…I don't fit in with them." She mumbled. Starfire sat down next to her.
"But, your friends seemed so unhappy when you left." She replied. Fade gave her a weak smile.
"Thanks for trying to cheer me up, but…I'm just too different from them. That's why I work all the time, it's an excuse to leave and then they can have fun." She explained sadly.
"Fade, I understand that you feel out of place with your friends, but…truthfully, I believe that they are saddened when you leave." Starfire insisted. Fade sighed.
"Really Starfire, it's okay, I know I don't fit in." she closed her notebook and stood up. She walked over to the door with Starfire following. The door opened to reveal Metallic standing there with his hand raised as if he were about to knock.
"Metallic…what are you doing here?" she asked.
"Well…we were gonna play a game, and we were wondering if you wanted to…well, join in." he replied. Fade grinned.
"Uh, sure, I'll be there in a minute okay?"
"Okay." And he left. Fade turned to Starfire.
"Um…thanks." She said. Starfire smiled.
"It was most enjoyable to help you." She replied. Fade laughed.
"Come on, let's go." Starfire nodded. They walked out to see everybody sitting in the living room, trying to figure out what to do. Fiery looked up.
"Hey! Fade! Mom! Over here!" So, they played some games and talked for a while, and when it was time for lunch, they decided to go out for pizza. Beast Boy walked over to Amp and sat down next to him.
"Quite a bold move for you." Amp said without even looking up. Beast Boy blushed.
"Hey! I'll leave if you keep doing that!" he replied angrily. Amp paused for a second, and then started laughing.
"What?" Beast Boy demanded. Amp turned to him.
"You wouldn't leave." He laughed. Beast Boy couldn't help but smile. Something about this kid…
"Hey…Amp, this morning…"
"When I passed out? You don't have to worry about it, not that I think you actually would but it was my fault…I forgot to take my medication before bed." Beast Boy nodded.
"Yeah, but…I mean, your friends…they said that this happened before, when did it…well, when was the last time this happened?" Amp thought for a moment.
"When I was 13…it was nothing major." He replied. Beast Boy started to eat, and said nothing more about it. But…something told him that Amp wasn't being completely honest. Midnight and Raven walked over and sat down with them.
"Hi dad! Hi Amp! What's up?" Midnight greeted.
"Nothing." Amp replied. Raven raised an eyebrow but said nothing.
"Hey Raven, can I talk to you for a second?" Beast Boy asked.
"Sure, we'll be right back." She said to before walking off with Beast Boy.
"Hey Raven, that kid…he acts kind of weird." Beast Boy announced.
"They all act a little strange, but that is true." Raven agreed.
"I mean, when I ask him things, a lot of times he doesn't give me a real answer and-"
"Have you noticed that he also has a crush on our daughter?" Raven added.
"WHAT!"
"Maybe that's why he doesn't tell you things, because you're her father." She continued. Beast Boy watched Midnight and Amp, but they were just talking.
"Well that squirt better start talking!" he started running over to the table but Raven held him back.
"Beast Boy, I can't believe you're getting so overprotective."
"Dude! That's our daughter!" Beast Boy insisted.
"I suppose, but technically, she doesn't even exist yet, neither of them do." Raven explained. Beast Boy stopped. He turned to her.
"What?" he asked. Raven sighed.
"Never mind." Amp walked over.
"Hey guys, are you coming back or what?"
"We'll be there in a minute." Raven replied. Amp nodded and went back to the table.
"Okay, Beast Boy, don't do anything stupid. I know you know have an intense hatred of Amp, but if you start freaking out at him, I can guarantee that Midnight won't be happy that you're harassing her friend." Raven ordered.
"Whatever." Beast Boy muttered. Raven put her hand on his shoulder and gave him a small smile. Then she walked back to the table. Beast Boy blushed, but followed her to Midnight and Amp.
"Hi mom, hi dad." Midnight greeted happily.
"Hi." Raven replied as she sat down. Beast Boy sat down between Raven and Midnight. Raven sat quietly and ate her pizza, while Midnight and Amp chatted. Beast Boy ate too…but he didn't take his eyes off of Amp.
At the other table, Fiery was enjoying lunch with her parents, Robin and Starfire.
"Hey mom, what's Tameran like?" Fiery asked curiously.
"Oh! It is glorious! Shall I take you there? Sometime soon perhaps?" Starfire replied happily. Fiery grinned.
"Actually, you and dad are taking me this summer, well…the summer of my time." Starfire smiled.
"How wonderful! We shall all have a most magnificent time!" she continued.
"Well…in a few years." Robin added. Fiery nodded.
"Yes, a few years. Of course first you'll have to get together…and have your first kiss…and get married…and have me…and raise me for 12 years and then let me go off to join the titans with occasional visits, and then plan the trip, and then actually go there!" Fiery explained, completely ignoring her parents rapidly growing redder.
"Oh! You wanna see a picture of your wedding?" Fiery offered.
"Huh?" Robin sweat dropped.
"Yes! Please!" Starfire replied happily. Fiery pulled out a picture wallet and flipped to a picture of Starfire and Robin. She handed the wallet to Starfire.
"See, there's you, and there's dad. Oh! And there's Raven, and Beast Boy, and Cyborg! Oh, look! That's Bumblebee!" Fiery pointed to everyone as she said their names.
"It's Galfor!" Starfire beamed as she pointed out her guardien.
"Yep!" Fiery replied, "And that's Batman! Whoo! My Grandpa's rock! One is a super hero of the night, and the other is the ruler of Tameran!" Fiery yelled happily.
"Yes! It is wonderful! Is it not?" Starfire agreed. But…that left Cyborg with Metallic and Fade.
"Could you guys be a little less gross please?" Fade inquired and Cyborg and Metallic shoveled pizza into their mouths.
"Sparky's always like that." They all turned to see Bumblebee.
"Bee? What are you doing here?" Cyborg inquired.
"Jus thought I'd drop by, so, what's the shorties?"
"Robin! Bumblebee's here!" Cyborg called. So…they headed back to the tower. Because, a public restaurant was defiantly not the best place to tell Bumblebee what was going on. So…once they were back to the tower…
"Is anyone gonna tell me what's up with the kids?"
"Hey!" Amp yelled angrily, "We're not kids! We're the Teen Titans!"
"No you're not!" Bumblebee shot back.
"Hey! Let me explain." Cyborg announced. Everyone turned to him. Metallic walked over to Cyborg.
"I can help too." Metallic offered.
"Okay! Why is this kid dressed like me?" Bumblebee inquired. Metallic cocked his head.
"I'm your son."
----------------------
How will Bumblebee react to that? "I'm you're son." Hmm...I think I would freak out. But, let's see how she handles it...in the next chapter.
