A/N: Chapter one! Whee:D I've had this done for a while now, I just wasn't sure if I should use it though. Anyway, enjoy!
Disclaimer: I own "Zinthos" and the unknown characters she mentions. Not the Teen Titans. If I did...hell, it'd be cooler and come on more often. XD

Chapter One (Pt. I): $70r13$ stories
(...trans-i-s-on be--n...)
My name is Zinthos Ar-&-lla Miriam -($-n. My parents are the former Teen Titans, (data corruption...data stream recovered: begin) born into turbulent times between Freaks and Humans. You're probably confused 4$ t0 w#47 1 m34n by Freak. It's kind 0f l1k3 th3 difference between a tiger and a lion: they're both cats, but still different species. Humans are Homo sapiens and Freaks are Homo (sapiens) superus; in layman's terms: mutant$ or met4-humans.
I was also born into two depressing agreements. The first being my inheritance of my mother's abdicated thrown, the second being my engagement to an Aviarian. My parents did the best they could to keep me out of those agreements, but the government that appointed them was stronger than they thought. 1 was pinned to these agreements whether I wanted them or not. 4! 7#3y c0u!d do w4s wait for me to c0m3 0f age 4nd refu$e.
H0p3 I'd r3fu$3 anyway.
But the worst thing happened before 1 could. 3 years before I was born, the entire state of California was disconnected from the United States western coast. For five full hours, the state of California was known as the island of California. 7his happened because Freak lost its temper with the Teen Titans and decided that if it couldn't have what it wanted from them, the Titans couldn't have anything either. The Freak split the California fault line and then tried to sink the island, resulting in only solution.
The Titans killed said Freak (data stream pending...data stream loaded: begin)
My mother and father reattached the state. How they did that is another story, but in saving the island new mountain ridges sprung up, isolating the devastated area. California suffered hard for seventeen months, the uncharted and new mountains on the boarder were treacherous to those who tried to cross them, so air aid was the only option left.
00000000011111000011000100 a month after that devastation, a repeat of 9/11(almost 40 years before) occurred in Alexandria, Virginia, then in Richmond, then in Bethesda, Maryland; Arlington, Prince 000011110000001000(data infection...data cleansed: begin)00020000001000110George's County and Fairfax, Virginia. It continued until the entire area surrounding Washington, DC was nothing but chaos. Air traffic was shut down for ten months, bringing the United Stated to a screeching and horrifying halt before shoving the world into the most demanding time yet: awareness.

A/N: Yes, my friends, chapter one, part one. :D I feel evil today. After all, I just turned sixteen yesterday (May 26th) so I'm happy with myself. Anyway, excuse the shortness, but I realized that if I didn't do something to this chapter (all the numbers and stuff, or L33t for ya'll) then I'd be giving away WAY too much info then I wanted to. Plus, this was originally my first pitch for this chapter (except for it being a part one) which makes things easier for me.Now, before you continue, I have ONE last thing to say: OOC-ness galore! Why? Because if I don't, the story makes NO sense. Enjoy! R&R please!
A/N2: Evil server. It won't let me upload stuff! Oruse symbols!Well, at least it works now. Enjoy!
