Titans Beyond
Episode 26: M'gann M'orzz
Author: Brruundin
Warning, I do not own the Titans or any other DC characters I may use.
Tick, tick, tick, tick goes the clock. 4:27 am. Such an odd time, Miss Martian thinks to herself as she sighs. She can't sleep, her nerves are getting to the best of her. Tomorrow is her first day as a member of the Titans, she's not sure what they're going to think of her or if she's even cut out to be a Titan.
She's nervous, what if they find out... worried that if they ever found out what she truly was, I've never fit in... She tosses and turns at thought of the inevitable. Hopefully I can keep this up, I don't want to let Uncle John down... Miss Martian is clearly referring to Martian Manhunter her uncle from the Planet Mars, and one of the members of the Justice League.
As all these thoughts race through her head, she continues to worry even more. All her life was about just blending and fitting in, but for the first time she was worried. This would be her chance to prove to herself and her uncle that she could in fact become a hero, become some great. She was a quiet girl for the most part, keeping to herself mostly, afraid to let the other Martians know what she really was. When she was approached by her uncle a couple months back about possibly becoming a member of the Titans, he thought it would be beneficial if she had access to Earth Television, so she could become accustomed to Earth culture.
She ended up mostly just watching reruns of an old sitcom called Hello Megan, a show about a teenage girl having fun and solving real life problems. Miss Martian was obsessed with this girl, so much that she wanted to be her, so when she finally came to Earth she took Megan's appearance thought green skin of course. She wanted so badly to fit in with her new friends, like Megan seemed to do with everyone she met. She never really had anyone to be close to before, so she decided this would be the perfect chance to do so.
5:18... I should really try to get some sleep. Miss Martian says while rolling back onto her side, she decides to shut her eyes, Ahhh peace...
Buzz Buzz Buzz. The alarm clock goes while Miss Martian lets out a long moan... Is it time to get up already...
She looks at the clock. 6:30... I guess I could lay her for a minute or two more. We don't have to be ready until 8 anyway... She sighs and closes her eyes, immediately follow by a loud knock.
"Oh, friend Miss Martian, I heard your alarm go off, but you have yet to leave your room, are you in needing of some assistance this morning?" Starfire says cheerfully, right outside her door. Great... A wake-up call, just what I need
"No, I'm fine Starfire, thank you for asking this though" Miss Martian says while straining to get up. I need to get up now, or I'm gonna be late.
"You are very much of welcome friend Miss Martian, however what was that last thing you said?"
What I didn't say anything after that ohhhhh Hello Megan, I need to be careful with my telepathy around the others. Megan thinks to herself being careful not to use telepathy.
"Oh nothing, I was thinking out loud, Sorry!" Miss Martian says finally responding to her question.
"Very well then, I shall continue to leave you be, I shall be seeing you shortly" Starfire says, with another cheerful response.
Miss Martian, then gets out of her bed, looks around, and sighs. Here goes nothing, she thinks to herself and sighs. Well, it's time to get going. She grabs her clothes for the day and heads to the bathroom, after a quick shower she gets dressed and heads to the living room. Nightwing, Robin, Starfire, and Blue Beetle are already there.
"Hey Miss Martian, right? I'm Robin it's nice to meet you." Robin says as soon as she walks in. Miss Martian nods and smiles back, she then looks over at Nightwing and he nods, Blue Beetle lifts his arm a little as a subtle wave.
"Sup, I'm Blue Beetle" He says looking up from food.
Miss Martian then looks for a place to sit, she quickly picks the couch, since its far enough from the others at the table, but close enough to not appear rude.
"Hey new girl, you hungry? I think Starfire made pancakes?" Beast Boy says while appearing from the hallway with Cyborg. "I'm Beast Boy by the way, but you can call me BB" Beast Boy says while taking a sit on the couch next to her.
"Uhhh I'm fine thank you, my names M'gann but my Uncle John asked for everyone to refer to me as Miss Martian for reasons... He has... safety concerns." Miss Martian says, too nervous to eat, she didn't want to throw up everywhere at her first day.
Beast Boy laughs and turns on the TV. He starts flipping to find the morning cartoons.
"Dude they never show anything good anymore, this sucks..." Beast Boy turns in a cat and rolls around on the couch. Miss Martian giggles.
"I can shift my appearance as well, but I never think about turning into earth creatures."
"Haha well it's kind of my specialty it's just what I do" Beast Boy says, now back as his normal self.
The other Titans slowly all gather around. Nightwing then instructs the new members to follow him outside to begin training, Miss Martian was so nervous, what if I fail, what if im not good. Oh no, ugh I just need to relax and remember it'll be okay like Uncle John said, I mean how bad can it actually be, she says to herself, looking towards the bright side. The sun was shining, there were blue skies, it was going to be a great day, and she was looking forward to getting to know everyone. She trusted herself, and that's all she really needed.
A/N Well that wraps up this episode/chapter. So, I've decided I'm going to do quick back stories on the four new characters, so we get a feel for how they're going to fit in. They're going to take place at various points in the first couple days of them arriving at Titan Tower, so it's not all the same sort of point of view. After that I'll dive back into the Original members, as well as Titans East and the new Hive Five. As always, I look forward to feedback and reviews, if you have questions, concerns, comments, or feedback, on this or any of the chapters I'd love to read them. As always, enjoy! :)
