AlienTokusatsuDuelistMangaGeek: I want you to take a step back and think. If it was as obvious as Albedo then WHY would I be hiding it the way I am? Yes the pieces come together to form a picture that LOOKS like Albedo but there are pieces missing and others that do not sit right
Albedo did NOT survive the magic blast
And James is not the kind of character to kill so easily
StrongGuy159: I warned you.
Shooting Star Dragon 3000: Why go Ditto when they have a team?

AUTHORS NOTE

We are going at an unbelievable speed!
We're moving at a lightning pace!
... okay, I'll stop. But if you have not guessed, this chapter's guest stars are The Flash and Impulse!
And yes this Flash is Wally. West is Best.
Now, let's get on with this story! Back in a Flash!
James' Harem 2
Chapter 7: Arriving in a Lightning bolt
We find ourselves back at Titans Tower where most of the team were asleep.
FLASH!
WOSH!
WOSH!
The collective exclamation of the tower was a scream of shock and surprise. The tower shook gently, thunder shooting through the building "What the heck's going on?" Karen asked, worried about everything.
Everyone got up and looked around, seeing the yellow lightning filling the halls. Victor sighed, knowing who and what was happening. "It's-"
"Monty Python's Flying Circus." A disembodied voice spoke from somewhere
CRASH!
*Insert 'We are having technical difficulties' sign*
We apologise for that poor joke/reference. The person who made that joke has been put in the 'Time-Out Corner'.
*Back to reality*
"Hey!" Two figures emerged from the lightning bolts. A man wearing a dark red suit with yellow boots and a lightning bolt on his chest.
Next was a teen wearing a white suit with red down the sides and yellow lightning bolt accents going down his body, separating the red and the white. The top of the suit revealed his brown hair
"I take it these are your speedster friends?" Garfield asked
"Yep." Victor nodded
"Hey Vic." The red clad man nodded, showing he was Wally West
"Whoa, Wally. See you got an upgrade." Victor commented
"Yep, I'm now 'The Flash'." Wally nodded
"Ah~!" A disembodied voice sung from somewhere
*Another 'technical difficulties sign'*
We apologise for that lame joke. The writer for this joke has been put in the naughty corner and has been told 'No more jokes' for the remainder of the day.
*Back in reality*
"Nice to meet you both." James spoke, extending his hand before he yawned lightly "Sorry, late night."
"Been busy with bad guys?" Impulse asked
"Visiting family." James shook his head
"Ah, okay." Wally answered.
"We early for breakfast?" Impulse asked
"Yes." Cass nodded, glaring
"Just...give us a couple of hours." James spoke with a tired sigh.
"HOURS?!" Impulse yelled
"SOME of us can't function at the crack of dawn." Garfield answered, pointing at the clock which showed it was 5AM
"So...two hours. Watch some TV... just let us sleep." Victor answered, raising his hand to indicate the number two. And with that the Titan's returned to their rooms
"...How're we gonna wait for two hours?" Impulse groaned.
"Patience." Wally answered simply
"... That Asian chick was cute." Impulse joked/commented before he disappeared in a flash of Lightning
"Bart! No!" Wally yelled in worry
*Elsewhere*
Cass made several annoyed noises as she jumped into her bed, quickly forming her cacon of quilt and bedding once more. She tried to get to sleep, but with all that had happened it was difficult for her to clock off. She rolled over, still looking like a large black of black with yellow bats all over... And came face to face with that annoying lightning boy
"Hi!" He grinned
PUNCH!
POW!
BANG!
MEOW!
Impulse stumbled out of Cass' room covered in bruises and injuries "I think she likes me." He joked, passing out
*Two hours later*
The Titans were now awake, still annoyed, but they were better rested
James had transformed into his version of XLR8 as to prepare food as fast as possible. James' Kineceleran form had a sleek dark grey body with dark yellow stripes. His helmet was dark grey while the visor was yellow as well. His hands were now four clawed fingers, his tail had arrow-head-like markings for stripes like a long large bee, his feet were clutching small balls and his elbows looked like some sort of organic jet thrusters
"Kinda slow." Impulse commented.
"Shh!" Wally chastised him.
"I can hear you, you know." James spoke as he finished up "I'm surprised you can see/hear me."
"We're speedsters. We have a connection to something called 'The Speed Force'. You may be fast James, but we're some of the fastest beings alive." Wally explained
"This entire SPECIES is all this fast." James commented
"Wow." Bart blinked
"Yeah." James nodded, transforming back. "Not bragging but, it's kinda awesome."
"That was fast." Jason blinked
"We've got guests who've been waiting. No time for messing about." James answered. "Morning."
Cass waved, glaring at Impulse
"Hehe." Impulse chuckled awkwardly as he saw Cass.
"Who wants what?" James asked. Breakfast took a bit but soon everyone was sat down, eating
Wally and Bart had kept to a slow pace since they were among guests...and their metabolism would make them plough through the food in nano-seconds. Although Wally had to stop Bart every few seconds, so he didn't go super speed
"So this twerp is joining my team?" Argent asked
"'Twerp'?" Bart snapped
"Yes, that's what we're thinking." Dick nodded
"No." Wally frowned
"'No'?" Victor asked, looking at Wally.
"No, he's too inexperienced." Wally answered "And you guys can't deal with him."
"Yeah-hey!" Bart frowned.
"Now see..." Argent started only for the alarms to go off
"We're on the clock." Garfield spoke
"Titans, let's go!" Dick spoke
"We got two different problems." Raven read off "Doctor Light is causing problems... While on the other side of town there is... Plasmius, Cinderblock, Mammoth and Gizmo." She listed off, frowning at Plasmius and Cinderblock's names. Her brother's, fellow children of Trigon, turned into mindless monsters by Brother Blood. When incarcerated they could be reverted to their human states, studied and attempted to be cured. When someone breaks them out of prison, when allowed to roam free, they where mindless beasts of destruction
"Sounds like you need help." Wally spoke
"We wouldn't say 'no', but you need to be brought up to speed on these guys." Kom answered
"You guys go take care of the heavy hitters." Argent suggested "My team can take on Doctor Light."
"Alright. Take care, okay?" James responded
"We will, luv." Argent winked, kissing his cheek "Batgirl, Robin, with me!" She called, running off with the two following her
"Alright, coming." Jason groaned, grabbing some toast.
"I'll back them up." Rose nodded and followed
"Are you sure?" Kori asked
"I'm sure. I need some exercise." Rose answered, already out the door
"You, stay here." Wally ordered Impulse
"Oh, what?" Impulse groaned
"For earlier." Wally answered simply "Now stay."
"I-Fine." Bart huffed and sat in his seat.
"Titan's, together." Nightwing called, the group heading out
*With the Teen Titan's*
"So, 'Dr Light' know anything about him?" Jason asked
"From the files, he does what his name suggests." Argent explained
"Manipulated and controls light." Jason nodded
"Crimes include the normal. Assault, robbery, property damage, attempts at murder." She listed off "... And he is a suspected rapist."
Cass didn't like that last bit, she grabbed one of the batarangs she had and clawed at the wall with it.
"Yay, another sicko." Jason rolled his eyes
"Then let's go get him." Argent spoke, gearing up to get ready. The three arrived, seeing carnage between two city streets and a whole lot of money behind him in bags
Cass pointed to Dr Light who was making a run for it.
"I see him. Cass, you and I will take him from the rooftops, Argent-" Jason began to plan when suddenly Doctor Light shot a blast into a mirror next to him, and another blast of light fired from the window next to our three heroes and hit them hard
"Ha! Take that!" Dr Light laughed as he got more of a head start
"... How?" Jason blinked
"Mirrors." Cass groaned, pointing to the windows.
"The reflections, he's using the windows." Argent helped the two up
"But how... It went INTO the mirror, not bounce off it." Jason frowned
A face emerged from the window behind the three, smirking "Howdie." Mirror Master mocked
"The hell're you?" Argent asked in confusion
"Name's 'Mirror Master'. Seeya." The person answered, grabbing both Batgirl and Robin and dragging them INTO the mirror!
"NO!" Argent screamed as she saw her teammates captured by Mirror Master. She shot a blast at the mirror... And it shattered from her attack
"Haha! You can not defeat the ultimate team up of Doctor Light and Mirror Master!" Doctor Light laughed mockingly
"Give me back my team!" Argent called out, trying to go after them. She charged at him, making large red construct fists. He slammed them down, aiming to crush the villain... Who jumped out of the way, her constructs disappearing and being absorbed into Light's hands
"Nice try sweet cheeks." He laughed, blasting her into a window and joining her team
Now, all three Teen Titans were caught in Dr Light's and Mirror Master's trap. They couldn't escape.
"Damn it! We're freaking stuck!" Jason snapped. The three looked around, noticing that it looked like they where in the same street only... Mirrored
Cass couldn't believe it, everything seemed backwards. The words, the buildings, the whole world. And for someone who could not read very well NORMALLY, this was BEYOND freaking her out!
"What the hell is going on?" Argent asked, getting disoriented as she felt her leg being hugged on by Cass.
"Welcome to my world." Mirror Master grinned from every reflective surface
"Come here, you coward!" Jason called out
"Ooh, temper, temper. You don't want me to break a mirror; would you?" Mirror Master asked "After all, the less mirrors, the lower your chance of getting out!"
Cass' eyes widened in shock as Jason reeled back a punch, he didn't want to break anything from hearing that.
"And YOU'RE the only one who can bring us back?" Argent asked
"Yes." He nodded before he waved his arm "Well, there is another way. TEN of the mirrors in town are portals out of this mirror world. But they only let one person out at a time... And these portals will shut in two hours."
"What? That doesn't give us enough time!" Argent snapped, thinking about the size of the City and how many potential locations there would be.
"Really? I didn't know." Mirror Master feigned stupidity. "Better hurry, only an hour fifty-eight remaining."
Doctor Light laughed from outside the world, grinning
"We've got to get going!" Jason ordered, not wanting to get caught in this 'Mirror World' forever.
Cass was shaking lightly, nodding quickly
*With the Titans*
Our old classic heroes where busy fighting, battling these powerful foes "Dang it, I REALLY don't like fighting these guys." James spoke with a frown. It wasn't because he had difficulty fighting them, it was because they were innocent in all this, they were mutated by a sociopathic madman.
"Yeah, these guys are annoying." Victor frowned "But... Where is Gizmo?"
"Here, CumBaskets." An annoying teenage voice laughed. Bursting from the wall was the bold kid, older, in some sort of mech suit
"'CumBaskets'? Really? What're you 5 and 1/2?" Garfield snarled
"He use to call is stuff like 'snot muncher', I think his vocabulary has improved." Jinx joked
"If it ain't the two skank-shits from school. You're hanging with THIS crowd now?" Gizmo asked, bringing up a new mech-improvement on his gadgets
"We have been since BEFORE Blood, moron." Bumblebee scoffed "Or did all of his mind bleaching fuck up your brain?"
"Shut up you slutty ARGH!" Gizmo began to insult before being shot in the face by Cyberian.
"Don't even START with language like that." Cyberian spoke with a serious glare, knowing what Gizmo would say knowing his 'improvement' only for Cyberian to be attacked by massive blasts of red energy "ARGH!"
"Cyberian!" Duela called out, turning to the location of the blast.
"Get here Whore!" He called, thrusting an arm at Duela
Duela ducked, dodging the attack towards her and ran forwards ready to slam her mallet into Gizmo's face "Shut it!" She snapped
Soon the group tried to handle Cinderblock and Plasmius, while Cyberian groaned, getting back up from the attack. He was going to make sure Gizmo WOULD stay down "Vic, don't." James frowned
"I...I'm alright." Cyberian breathed to calm himself down, hearing his teammate bring him back.
*with the Teen Titans*
"How are those guys so fast?" Rose frowned, arriving atop a building. She tried to look around using the communicator she was given to try and find the Teen Titans. Then she saw something from a window "Wait, is that-?" Rose asked herself as she went to the window and saw a pale reflection of Jason, Cass and Argent behind her, but the weren't there. "I-I must be going crazy."
"Esor" Argentcalled from window
"'Esor'? Argent? Is that you?" Rose pressed her hands against the glass. "What happened?"
"Retsam rorrim." Argent answered
"What? I-I don't understand. You're talking gibberish." Rose answered
"Pleh!" Batgirl called in fear
"'Pleh'? 'Pleh'?" Rose wondered, looking behind her, thinking Cass was talking nonsense and seeing if they were really behind her, but they weren't. "Can you write anything?"
Jason frowned and pulled out a Birdarang, carving 'Su pleh!' into the glass. The writing caused Argent to hold Cass closer as she didn't like the sound of the screeching glass, but Rose could now read it.
"'Su pleh', 'Help us'!" Her eye widened in realisation. "Okay, I'll help. Point which way they went and I'll get you out." Rose answered... Then she heard laughter. Grabbing her sword, she readied herself to fight. She was going to find that laughter. Her eyes widened, jumping out of the way of several blasts of light. Rose landed back on her feet, trying to get her bearings.
"Hello, there girl." The laugher spoke "My my, aren't you a little beauty."
"Dr Light, I'm guessing? Spying on me?" Rose asked, using her good eye to check the mirrors
"No, more enjoying the show. NOW I am enjoying the view." He said, licking his lips creepily
"Okay, you're a creep." Rose commented
"And you can't beat me!" He laughed
"Oh yeah? What makes you say that?" Rose asked, using her sword like a mirror to try and get her range.
Doctor Light laughed, light shooting around the area from mirrors
"Shit!" Rose tried to dodge, but she was hit in the sides by the light barrage.
*Titan's Tower*
Bart was bored as all hell, he was flicking playing cards into a flower pot when the alarms started to go off "The hell?" Bart asked, trying to find the 'off button'.. However he hit the 'view' button, showing CCTV of the fight between Rose and Doctor Light which also showed the trapped Robin, Batgirl and Argent "What the-? What am I-Mirror Master!" Bart gasped and realised who Rose was fighting against. Well, who was involved. And seeing that pretty Batgirl in trouble, he took off running Within seconds, Bart was there by Rose's side.
"Impulse? I thought-?" Rose snapped
"Less talk, more saving Batgirl." Impulse answered
"Impulse? YOU'RE here?" A voice called out
"Hey Mirror old pal!" He waves with a smile
Emerging from the mirror was Mirror Master, wearing an orange and green body suit while holding a silver raygun "Great, it's the brat." He sighed
"You KNOW him?" Dr Light asked
"Unfortunately." Mirror Master glared"He is the second Flash's kid... I think."
"Close." Impusle answered and super-sped his way to grab Mirror Master... And ran through a im
"HEY!" Impulse called out in fright, losing his footing an nearly falling over "Whatndid you do?! Lock them in your reflection world?"
"Yep, that's right." Mirror Master answered
"Great." He frowned
*Inside the mirror world*
Argent was using her constructs to test out windows, spreading them out like snakes. "Anything?" Jason asked, trying to find one of the exits.
"None yet and I feel like I've searched half the city!" She frowned
Cass felt like she couldn't do much, she tried helping out but it felt near impossible. She was so scared
"Cass?" Argent looked at her and frowned, going to her to give her a hug
Cass rested against her, shaking
"Oh, Cass..." Argent frowned, hugging her.
'What the hell are we gonna do? We're running out of time!' Jason thought to himself.
"Hey, don't cry Batgirl." Impulse's voice echoed through to them, his voice vibrating "I'll get you out in just a sec!"
"H-How?" Cass asked
"I am vibrating at a frequency so you can hear my voice properly. Now calm down, I'll be back in a Flash." He winked and took off running, leaving a small sonic boom
"Where's he going?" Jason asked
*Outside the Mirror World*
Impulse was running at super speed, putting his hand against every mirror he passed as he ran. In less than ten seconds he had found the right mirror and slipped through into the mirror world
"Anyone for a taxi!" Impulse called out, skidding to a stop in front of the three... And was attacked by Batgirl, who's hands where now swords "Oh snap! Mirror clones!" Impulse gasped, turning tail and ran off, trying to find the real Argent, Batgirl and Robin "Please tell me you guys are the real ones." He joked, the three jumping in shock as they saw him
"Bloody hell, you git!" Jason readied his birdarang at him
"Yeah, you're real." Impulse answered with a nod... and was tackle hugged by Cassandra "Gah! Yeah, good to see the real 'yous' too." Impulse answered.
"You know which portal to get us out?" Argent asked
"Yeah, hold onto me and I'll get us out of here in a Flash." Impulse nodded
"Is that a running thing with you?" She asked
"You mean jokes? Yeah. People get too broody too much. Everyone needs a laugh every now and again." Impulse answered
"I mean the 'in a flash' line." Argent commented
"It's a family thing." Impulse answered, grabbing the three and zoomed out of the Mirror World.
*with Rose*
Ravager gasped in pain as she crashed into a wall, dropping her sword. She clutched her side in pain, Dr Light's attacks were bringing her down "Aww. Looks is I win, pretty girl." He grinned and cupped her chin while creepily licking her cheek.
Rose flinched as she almost gagged at the feeling of this creep licking her.
"How about...we have some fun?" He asked with a malicious glint in his eyes
"Yeah...'Fun'." She glared, slyly gabbing a knife from her belt.
"Oh really?" He grinned, reaching down and cupping her breast through her chainmail suit... And then a knife was stabbed into his shoulder "ARGH! FUCKING WHORE!" He screamed in pain as the knife tore through his flesh and Rose punched him in the nose.
"RARGH!" Rose roared, punching at Dr Light in a vicious rage before she performed a spin kick, her steel toed boot going right into his balls. Dr Light was getting pummeled by Rose, trying to hit her again, but she was making his vision bloody. She was moving fast and quickly, like a trained weapon, clobbering the dirty old man. Dr Light tried to fight back, but the pain he was feeling and the swiftness and strength of Rose's attacks were overpowering him. With one final steel-toed tapped spin kick to his jaw, he was knocked out. She panted as she stood tall above him. Spitting on the ground she panted heavily as she glared at him... and slumped onto the side of the building where she was. She clicked her communicator and tried to speak, panting heavily "Rose... Rose to Titans. Dr Light... Is finished. Waiting for police pick up or whatever crap we are doing." She explained, whipping the saliva from her cheek with a look of disgust, sighing in slight exhaustion
"Way to go Ravager!" James called through with a grin
'James?' She thought with a small smile. "Thanks." She answered
"He secured?" James asked again
"Hang on." Rose answered and stabbed her sword into his cape and right next to his neck, one wrong move, he'd slice an artery. "Is now."
"That's good." James nodded, then the sound of explosions filled the air "Okay... Ow.. that hurt... We will be there to pick him up later. Good job Ravager." And with that he closed the line
"Thanks...James." She smiled as she rested for a moment.
*With the Titans*
Terra grunted, summoning a large wall of stone to block the massive strikes of Mammoth "Mother-! How strong IS this guy?" Terra asked
"I think he can lift around 30 tons?" Jinx shrugged
"Oh good, that's ALL we need!" Terra answered sarcastically.
"How about THIS?" Changeling asked, turning into an elephant and landing on him.
"Grr." Mammoth flinched, doing his best to try and lift the elephant
"Heh." Changeling smiled
"Hey, you CumGuzzlers!" Gizmo yelled only for a birdarang to be lodged into his jetpack "What?" He blinked, his robot suits wings exploding. Gizmo screamed as he fell to the floor, face first and broke his face.
"Nice aim." Harley Quinn smiled, praising her boyfriend.
"Thanks." Nightwing nodded "Now we just got to handle THESE two."
"I hope our little Cassie is doing okay." She giggled
*with the Teen Titan's*
"Crapcrapcrapcrapcrap!" Impulse yelled as he was being chased by Mirror Clones. He jumped out of the escape mirror, the New Teen Titan's with him
"Oh hell... Everyone okay?" Argent groaned as she rolled on her back.
"Yeah... Just gonna throw up..." Robin frowned, leaning against a bin
"What-what are?" Cass panted removing her mask to throw up.
"Mirror Clones. Mirror Master's puppets and REALLY annoying." Impulse answered, rubbing her back
"So we need to go and find Mirror Master to stop him then." Argent answered
"I got it." He grinned
"Alright." Argent nodded and called her team.
"No." Cass frowned at Impulse
"'No'? You worried about me?" Impulse asked, grinning at her and winking "It's fine beautiful, this guy is easy."
"No." She repeated with a frown "Team."
PTOO
"We do this together, or not at all, Speedster." Jason translated, wiping his mouth with his sleeve with a fire in his eyes
"Robin." Cass looked at him with kind eyes and used his hero's name
"Sure." Argent nodded
"Argent? Are you okay? GAH! Hey, watch it!" Kom asked while dodging something.
"Yeah, we're just finishing up. Going to nab Mirror Master and bring him to the cops." Argent answered, remembering she had her communicator on.
"'Mirror Master'? Who's that?" Kom responded
*with the Titans*
"Hello? Hello?" Kom blinked, Argent having ended the call
"What's going on?" James asked
"Argent called, saying something about 'Mirror Master' and then hung up." Kom answered
"Mirror Master?!" Flash snapped/groaned
"Do you know him?" Kom asked, shooting a plasma bolt at Cinderblock.
"One of my villains." Flash frowned
"Is he dangerous?" Kom asked as James went back into the fray to control Plasmius and Cinderblock.. Gizmo and Mammoth were KO'ed by Cyberian's tazer and Changeling's weight
"Can be." Flash shrugged "If they work out his weaknesses, they win."
"What IS his weakness?" Kom asked
*Back with Argent*
Argent summoned a shield, blocking an attack from a barrage of gem shards "Are you guys okay?" Argent asked, holding her shield as best she could
"Yep." Robin nodded
"Impulse, anytime now!" Argent asked
"On it!" Impulse answered through the communicator. He had ran off, 20 miles away. He figured that Mirror Master would be playing it safe. He'd be miles away and in a place where his powers could be fully utilized. So while his new friends held the fake one off, he and Cass where going to fight the real one "Okay Batgirl, bit of a heads up, this guy WILL use mirrors to escape. We've gotta break them so he doesn't do a runner." Impulse spoke
"Specialty." She nodded "You. Wait. I go in. Darkness." There was a confidence in her voice, a proud smirk
"Oh, I LIKE the way you think." Impulse nodded, screeching to a halt as they found where Mirror Master was.
Cass jumped up and slipped through a window of the building. Inside she saw a veritable hall of mirrors, with Mirror Master in the center. But in fact, this place was a Mirror Factory. She pulled out some Batarangs and carefully manuvoured around the room, getting into the best position... Then she unleashed hell
CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK!
Almost at once all the lights of the room where shattered, the room filling with darkness
"Hey! What the hell? What's going on?" Mirror Master called out, trying to find some light source
That was Impulse's que to run in as fast as he could
Within a few seconds, Impulse used his speed to search the darkness with only his lightning as the faint source of light.
Fist to Mirror Masters face
"Oof, argh, dah!" Mirror Master grunted in pain as he was flung from that single punch and rolled into the ground. His helmeted head hit a mirror and shattered it, passing out
"We did it!" Impulse called out. "Great job!"
Batgirl nodded as she started tying him up. As she stood up she saw Impulse with his eyes closed, moving his face towards her... An elbow to the gut and a judo flip later, Impulse was on his back seeing stars and in pain
"Mission over." She said simply, dragging Mirror Master outside
"... she totally digs me." He laughed
*Time skip*
The Titan's and Flash watched as the villains where sent away, smiling, before they went back to the tower "I told you to stay at the tower, Bart." Wally spoke, looking down at him
"Yeah, but-" Bart began
"You disobeyed me and went off to fight Mirror Master and Dr Light." Wally interrupted
"To help-" Bart tried to explain
Wally put his hand on Bart's shoulder. "Good job."
"Listen Wally I... What?!"
"You may have disobeyed me, but you saved Batgirl, Argent and Robin. In my opinion, that deserves praise." Wally answered
"And he deserves to be part of the team." Argent nodded
"As much as I don't want to say it... He saved our asses." Jason answered bitterly. "We would've been in that mirror world forever."
"He good." She nodded
"Looks like it's unanimous." Wally answered with a small chuckle
"Good job Bart." He chuckled
"I-th-thanks." Bart smiled
*In the medical room*
Rose was currently getting stitched up, though she was still creeped out by Dr Light's advances. She shook her head, not letting it bother her as she stitched up the cut on her arm. After what Blood did to her mind, and with how her dad had trained her, she wouldn't let this effect her
"How're you feeling?" James asked as he walked in.
"Fine. Part of me was annoyed I don't use guns." She joked
James smiled with a small chuckle, sitting next to her "You sure you're fine?" He asked gently, feeling empathy for her. as he had been through something similar that scared him for a long time
"I-" Rose began to speak before frowning. "Dr Light creeped me the fuck out."
"Yeah, I've heard some horror stories about that weirdo." James nodded, his hand going ontop of hers
Rose blushed as she let James hold her hand.
They sat there, silently
*? ? ?*
Burning through the sky of Jump City, a long green and purple streak of energy, like a comet scorched the clouds and landed in the middle of the streets. Along with it, a mad laughter
The figure emerged from the crater and stood tall, dark blood red hair, streaked with blackened purple, dark green eyes and burnt orange skin, purple armour with silver metallic guards... and a shining gemstone in the center of its chest.
She had been born as a dark one. As sick, weak.
She was looked down upon
Seen as LESSER!
She found the stone. Used it on her people.
She had killed them all, absorbed them all
All their power. All their life force.
Every day they had to live
Every second they lived under the sun
It was all hers.
She was invincible!
She spoke in her natural language, looking around at this new planet...A whole new planet to have fun on.
An albino humanoid moth with red eyes flew in front of her "Hello there." The humanoid moth spoke, looking at her.
The woman responded in her native language, trying to understand him, but she grabbed him and kissed him... She felt a chill through her body, like she was freezing from the inside out. She pulled back, coughing, before she died
"Well, THAT is unfortunate." The Mothman frowned
"What... Are you?" She coughed
"Well, my dear." The Mothman spoke, transforming into a human with snow-white hair. "THAT is complicated." His feet touched the roof just below them, his arms behind his back
"Who are you then?" The woman asked
"Oh... Just a guy looking to make trouble." he grinned, looking at a high tech red watch that covered the back of his right wrist "Now, tell me, what's your name?"
"My name. Is Koriand'r." The woman answered, looking at his hand
"What does that mean in English?" He asked, shrugging
"It means 'Starfire', in this 'English'." Starfire answered. "But it's not the name I chose."
"And your choice?" He asked almost eagerly
"'Blood-Fire'." The woman answered
