The Fourth Chapter, I hope I get this out quickly after the last one
Here's something to keep in mind, Don't worry about an effect,
Only Michael and Taylor actually remembers a different life.
There are more "souls" that's replaced people or in one case,
is a copy of a person, Power Girl being a copy of Supergirl.
These souls are rare, and aren't like Raven thou, all others are from
Fictional works themselves, the reason this is important thou
is because the souls themselves will be important later, and have coloured
the life now, Like Luthor's being a helpful man instead of villain
TL,DR: a few people were BORN with other souls,
that has no clue they've lived before
Here is the chapter! Have fun!
It's still

Raven POV
Well, The Terror Twins doesn't look much like their original selves, so I'm no longer scared that this is a kind of Crossover world, but I'm still confused, there's no Young Justice stuff, I even checked if Superboy exists, and found out that Luthor is a much nicer guy here than I thought he'd be
"STAND STILL!" Tommy Terror screams as he tried to hit me with a lamppost again
"why would I stop moving when you are trying to hit me?" I ask with a deadpan stare
Tommy let's out a guttural scream of rage and jump straight at me before being hit by a green ram flying into his face, knocking him out.
{Wait, what?}
Tommy Terror is lying on his back on the ground, completely knocked out from being hit by Beast Boy's Ram Horns, while Beast Boy himself is stumbling around dazed.
Tuppence is currently grappling with Starfire, neither getting much purchase against each other, while Cyborg is trying to aim with his sonic cannon, Robin throwing batarangs to keep Tuppence from gaining the upper hand
{I thought the Terror Twins was invulnerable, yet here they are more "boosted human" than Kryptonian Lite's}
Power Girl is actually looking much more in her element, and she picks up Tommy and puts the lamppost around his hands, like make-shift cuffs
"I thought they'd put up a bigger fight with such a name as Terror Twins" Power Girl says softly to herself, and I realise she was worried about that fact until she saw Tommy go down
"Names can be deceiving" I say, before giving a small scoff sound "Neither me nor Robin are birds"
Power Girl gives of a small giggle at this, and looks shocked at herself for it before quickly schooling her face into a 'All business' type smile
"So" I say "fighting villains is more comfortable to you than meeting a group of heroes?"
"Heroes have burnt me before" she mutters before looking directly at me
"There's a story there" I say, before turning towards Beast Boy
"Don't say it"
Beast Boy, who had just opened his mouth, for an obvious 'Ramming speed', shuts it again, muttering how unfair it is that I am a telepath
I honestly didn't read his mind, it was just that obvious, since he even still have the ram-horns,
didn't know he could do partial transformations, maybe that's another change from the show?
Tuppence finally falls down, and gets cuffed by Robin, so we make it over to the rest of the team, dragging Tommy with us, who's now awake, cursing us and struggling to get out of his lamppost-cuffs
"Freakin' teenage-heroes, let me and my sister go, or I'll knock your teeth out!"
{Well, that is a southern accent, barely, I think he's faking it}
Tuppence just glares at Starfire and Cyborg, before noticing me
"Who's the girl that looks like she's got covered in ash?" she says, grinning at me as if she somehow beaten me in something "Skinny, gray with a blue leotard, she looks dumber than a donkey" and I get an itch to punch her…
Power Girl steps forward and glares at Tuppence "You've been captured and think it's okay to insult your captors?" I get a small sense that Power Girl's just trying to play a part here, that she's not actually angry at Tuppence "I'm pretty sure the law says you have the right to remain silent, use it"
Both Tuppence and Robin gets a gobsmacked look at her words, Starfire looks confused, Tommy, Beast Boy and Cyborg looks at Power Girl with respect, and to the rest of the world, I look bored, however inside I'm screaming because something ticked in my brain
{She is forcing herself to seem like a badass hero because she's actually scared! She has been in super powered fights before and hates it! This girl has been fighting before, so she's not a Kara Zor-El who's recently arrived on earth, but rather a fighter}
After leaving the Terror Twins to the Jump Police Department, we all went for pizza, and sit on the balcony of the pizza parlour, whose owner is glaring at Starfire.
"I think he's still upset you broke the pillars before"
Robin smiles at Starfire, before shrugging "He did get reimbursed for the destruction thou, just like the rest of the city"
Beast Boy and Power Girl are eating a vegetarian pizza, Cyborg and I are sharing a kebab pizza
and I don't know the name of the one Robin and Star are sharing…
I look at Power Girl again and try to figure out what version of Power Girl/Super Girl she is
{She's not from an Injustice world, since she was uncomfortable with Captain Marvel just as much as anything else, she's STILL uncomfortable being around the rest of us, meaning she's not a Justice League member Version either…}
Cyborg taps on my shoulder
"Yo, Raven, aren't you hungry? You've only eaten one slice so far?"
I try to figure out a Raven-like answer before just saying whatever I can
"I'm not very hungry, but I'll take a slice more"
"Good, you shouldn't starve yourself you know" Cyborg says, before turning back to Robin, discussing security for the Titan tower.
{…. This is hell isn't it? Is he actually flirting with me and worried about my health? Or just one of the two? And why do I want it to be both?!}
Falling in love when you have become someone else is not fun…

I know this is a short chapter, just like the previous one, I also know both new chapters are very different from earlier ones, and I'm sorry, again, Amateur Writer, if someone wants to help me write, by suggesting changes here and there, and read my drafts when they are made, so they can work as a secondary veto (like I do for myself removing the more violent drafts that I myself don't like)
and Beta Reader, I'd like one
Simply put: If you want to be my Editor, PM me!
I know I suck at writing, so I need one!
About reborn souls: I've read many Self Inserts and OC dropin stories, I felt like making this one have a sense of "There is more to it than that" and therefore tried to figure out a way to make it diffrent
my decision: Add souls that "suffered" and make their new life a "reward"
For Example: Lex Luthor has the soul of Bioshock's Jack Ryan
Jack Ryan in this case is a savior, and has therefore been rewarded by being born into Lex Luthor, while Jack doesn't remember Rapture or any of those adventures, he's still the kind hearted man he was after Bioshocks Ending.
It's all only important for the "episode" The End, where these few souls will be aiding the team
so it's not for several dozen chapters more
