The time has come for Raizen to meet The Team! And the results are in for the poll and I was surprised. When I first put up the poll, Hawkgirl was in the lead. After I put up the previous Author's Note, Supergirl took the lead. And now, in the lead is Zatanna winning by one point! Guess that people want Zatanna to win.

Now that that's out of the way, let's us start this chapter!

Chapter 4

It was already morning of June 11 when The Team was resting back at Mount Justice. Everyone was fast asleep and they were all still tired from the mission with Metallo. It has been hard for them to keep focus since Metallo almost tried to kill them. But if it weren't for the mysterious person, then none of them would be alive. Even though Superboy had suffered sever burns from the Kryptonite blast, he still manage to live and was making a speedy recover. But despite that, no one could get the image of the mysterious boy out of their minds. They wanted to know who he was and why he saved them.

Miss Martian was the first to get up from her bed and she stretched her arms. When she looks at the time, it was already 8 in the morning. Figuring that the others might get up soon, she gets up, changes into her civilian clothes and makes her way to the kitchen to make some breakfast. But once she got there, she heard the refrigerator open. When Miss Martian walks over and see the refrigerator open while the door covering the person who opens it, she thought it might be Kid Flash looking for something to eat.

Miss Martian silently laughed and said "Relax Wally, I am going to make breakfast right now. You will just have to wait like the others."

But when the refrigerator door closed, her eyes widen and started to take a few steps back. For it wasn't Kid Flash she was talking to, but instead, it was Raizen! The Saiyan looks at her and said "Who's Wally?"

Lost for words, Miss Martian manages to say "It's…It's you! The one who defeated Metallo!"

Raizen said "Was that the machine I battled the other day? It is strange that you fight someone one day and the next you forget who they are called. I need to remember that."

"Forget that!" Miss Martian cried, "Why are you here?! In fact, how did you get in the base?!"

Just down the hallway, Artemis and Kid Flash, who were dressed in their civilian clothes, had just awoken and were making their way to the kitchen. When they heard Miss Martian's voice, Artemis said "Megan, who are you talking to?"

"Yeah," Kid Flash said, "We could hear you all the way from…"

When they were near her, they saw Raizen and Kid Flash yelled "Holy crap! It's that guy!"

Artemis' eyes widen and said "How did he get in?!"

Kid Flash then readied himself and said "I got him."

With that, Kid Flash used his Superspeed to run up to Raizen, hoping to punch him. But when he got there, he was already gone!

"What the-?!" Kid Flash shouted, "Where did he go?!"

"My, My, My," a voice behind Artemis and Miss Martian said, "You have a nice place here."

When the two young female heroes turned around, they say Raizen sitting down in one of the couches. Raizen smiled and said "I wish I had all this stuff back home."

Stunned on how fast Raizen moved, Kid Flash said "Dude, how did you get there so fast?!"

Raizen replied "The better question is: Why are you so slow?"

As Kid Flash's face turned red, the rest of The Team heard the commotion and everyone arrived at the kitchen. Once everyone was there, Rocket was the first to say "What's going on here? Why is everyone screaming?"

Artemis looks at everyone and said "Remember that guy who saved us from Metallo? Well…he's here!"

When Artemis points at Raizen, who was sitting down, everyone's eyes widen and Zatanna said in a surprised way "Oh my god! Is that him?!"

Rocket then said "Why is he here?"

Raizen looks back and said "Greetings everyone, how are you doing?"

Superboy then said in a demanding way "Don't change the subject. Why are you here?"

Just then, a voice said "Good, glad that you are all awake."

When The Team turns around, they saw both Wonder Woman and Batman walking towards them. Once they were near them, Robin said "Batman, it's that guy who fought Metallo! He somehow sneaked into the base!"

Batman shook his head and said "He didn't sneak into the base, we allowed him in."

As The Team gave off a confused looks, Batman sighed in frustration and said "Team…meet your new teammate."

After a brief moment of silence, The Team shouted "WHAT?!"

Aqualad then said "Batman…how is this possible?"

Batman replied "Wonder Woman here encountered him when he fought against Ares, the God of War."

"Ares?" Zatanna asked, "As in THE Ares? As in a real-live god?!"

Wonder Woman replied "I am as surprised as you are when Raizen defeated Ares with ease."

"I'm sorry," Kid Flash said, "Who is this Raisin guy?"

Irritated on what Kid Flash said, Raizen got up, faced them and said "The name's Raizen."

"Whatever," Kid Flash said.

As Raizen rolled his eyes, Artemis said "What a minute, how did you convince this guy to join our team?"

Batman replied "I didn't. When I first saw him, I wanted to obtain as much information from him and have him under League's surveillance."

Superboy then said "What happen?"

Wonder Woman replied "I talked to Raizen and the two of us came up with an agreement. As Raizen is willing give us the information he knows, he will stay here until further notice."

As everyone's mouth drops, Wonder Woman then said "And furthermore, as Raizen will stay here, he will also accompany you in your missions."

Everyone moan in frustration while Raizen said "You are aware that I am here?"

After a moment of silence, Batman said "We will take our leave now."

Robin looks at him and said "Why?"

Batman replied "It appears that Raizen here arrive Earth in his ship. And thanks to Wonder Woman's 'agreement', he gave us the coordinates to find it and allow us to analyze it."

Miss Martian then said "So he is an alien."

"Exactly," Wonder Woman said, "We will be on our way. In the meantime, introduce yourselves and make him feel like home."

With that, Batman and Wonder Woman left The Team with their new member. Once they were out of sight, Batman groan and said "I have a bad feeling about this. It is a mistake to let him join The Team without my approval."

Wonder Woman looks at him and said "Trust me, we both made a warrior's agreement. So long as we hold our end of our deal, he will be on his good side."

As Batman growled, Wonder Woman said "Relax, there is nothing to worry about."

Back with The Team, everyone was in the living room while Raizen was in the kitchen looking for some food. While he was looking in the cabinets, Superboy said in their telepathic link "Look at him, how did The League let him into our team?"

"Yeah," Kid Flash said, "I mean look at him! His hair is so freaking long, he has an attitude problem and we don't know anything about him!"

Miss Martian then said "Hold up, let's look at the fact here. He did save us from Metallo."

Robin said "Yeah, but did you see him? He just took blow after blow from Metallo and he still was standing like nothing happen. I mean, he could be Superman 2.0!"

As Superboy gave Robin a provoked look, Aqualad said "But we should keep an open eye on him. Who knows what he is capable of."

When they all look back at Raizen, he was carrying three uncooked hams in his arms while he was holding the last one with his tail. Artemis then said in a disgusted way "Okay, it is so creepy to see him actually use tail like that! I mean, it's gross!"

Zatanna then said "And far from that, it is impossible for someone to have a tail."

Rocket said "But you do know what Batman said about him being an alien. His appearance is different from normal people."

All of a sudden, Raizen then said "Are all of you talking in your minds?"

Alerted, when The Team looks at Raizen, who was putting the food on the table, he said "I have encountered people who can talked with their minds and you are all standing there looking at me with a look that says 'I don't trust him'."

As everyone's eyes widen, Raizen laughed and said "Yeah…I figure you were all talking about that."

He then shrugs and said "Not that I care anyways. We Saiyans aren't the most trustworthy people to get along with."

Miss Martian decides to say "Well…we kind of are having a conversation, but it wasn't about you."

The Team knew that part was a lie. But it was enough to convince Raizen as he said "Whatever you say."

Miss Martian then looks at the others and said in their telepathic links "We should introduce ourselves. We don't want make him feel neglected. And we do owe him for saving us."

As everyone mentally sigh, Superboy said "Fine."

When The Team looks at Raizen, who was eating the hams raw, Miss Martian was the first to say "Well…if you are going to be part of the team, let us introduce ourselves. My name is M'gann M'orzz; however, you can call me Megan. But in the team, I am Miss Martian."

Superboy then said "The name is Superboy."

Kid Flash said "I am Kid Flash, the fastest kid in the world."

Raizen rolled his eyes and whispered "More like second fastest."

Hearing Kid Flash grit his teeth, Zatanna said "I am Zatanna Zatara."

Aqualad then said "I am Aqualad, but my friends call me Kaldur."

"I am Artemis," Artemis said.

Robin then said "I am Robin, Boy Wonder."

Finally, Rocket said "And I am the Rocket!"

"I suppose this is where I say 'nice to meet you' and introduce myself," Raizen said, "Very well. My name is Raizen, I am a Saiyan from the Planet Vegeta."

"Saiyan?" Miss Martian said, "Never hear of them."

Raizen nodded his head and said "That is what Diana said when we first met."

"Diana?" Rocket asked, "Who is she?"

Raizen replied "I believe you call her this 'Wonder Woman'."

"What?!" Kid Flash cried, "You barely met her and you already know her secret identity?! What the hell?!"

Raising an eyebrow, Raizen looks at everyone and Artemis said "Don't mind him, he is always like that."

"Very well," Raizen said as he finished one of the hams and continues eating another.

Disgusted by Raizen's appetite, Superboy said "Why are you eating those hams raw?"

"And better yet," Zatanna said, "How can you manage to eat that and still be hungry for more?"

Raizen replied "It is a way for me to recharge my powers."

As everyone gave off a confuse look, Raizen said "My powers burn a lot of energy and the only way for me to regain some of that back, I have to devour a large amount of food to keep my powers charged."

"Geez!" Robin said, "You must have high metabolism then. You could eat more than KF."

In matter of minutes, Raizen finishes all four hams. As he let out a sigh of satisfaction, everyone's mouth dropped and Aqualad said "I have never seen anyone devour more than you."

Raizen smiled and said "You should have been there when the Amazons hosted a feast for me for defeating Ares, the one who claims to be a god. It was paradise."

"Are you kidding me?!" Kid Flash whined, "What more can you do?!"

Wanting to change the subject, Rocket said "I am curious, how did you find us? You barely arrived on Earth and appeared out of nowhere and saved us from Metallo."

At that moment, Raizen taps the device on his left ear and said "I use this device called a Scouter. It allows me to locate and detect any form of energy anywhere in the planet. It can also allow me to track down any worthy opponent to fight against."

"Is fighting always on your mind?" Miss Martian asked.

Raizen replied "I am a warrior who seeks battle. It's the way of the Saiyan."

"There he goes again with the Saiyan," Superboy said, "Just who are they?"

Raizen replied "The Saiyans are a race of proud warriors who have proven their strength. We are both feared and respected throughout the galaxy. We travel planet from planet to find worthy adversaries."

"You just go into random planets and start beating people up?" Artemis said, "That is not cool. What if the people are weak? Do you beat them up?"

Raizen shook his head and said "No, we live by a strict code of honor. We are to never attack the weak and fight those of equal strength of greater. It is through that we Saiyans become stronger both physically and mentally."

Thinking about that, Aqualad said "But what if the person who is weaker than you challenges you, then what?"

Raizen replied "Then we accept the challenge. It will be shameful not to accept it."

"Damn," Robin said, "That is hardcore commitment right there."

Wanting to talk about something else, Raizen said "So…what is it that you do on this planet?"

Miss Martian replied "Well we are on our summer vacation. We just hang around and have fun before The League gives us a mission."

"That's it?" Raizen asked, "Don't you all train yourselves?"

Zatanna replied "We have some of the League members help us train."

Walking around the kitchen and into the living room, Raizen said "So…is this like you place of operation?"

Robin replied "It is. Even though this place is our base, some of us live here."

Raizen looks at him and said "Who lives here?"

Zatanna replied "Just me, Megan and Superboy. Everyone else lives with their families."

"I see," Raizen said, "What else is there?"

At that moment, Rocket just rushed up to him, wrapped her arms around Raizen's left arm and said "Why don't we show you around?"

She then starts walking him towards one of the hallways while The Team gave her a questioning look. Zatanna then said "Is it me or is Rocket already making a move on the new guy?"

Superboy replied "I don't trust that guy."

Everyone looks at him and Aqualad said "But he did save us. We at least owe him that."

Kid Flash then said "Yeah…but the thing is-"

Artemis finished by saying "There is no way I am going to work with that guy! I mean…did you see how he disrespected Superman and just left like none of us were there! How can we work with a guy if they don't have our backs?!"

Robin then said "That's why we have to show him we can trust him. Obviously that this guy will have our backs if he can trust us."

As Superboy huffed, Zatanna said "Let's just focus on getting to know him. If we can understand him better, then we can have a better understanding about why he is like that."

After a moment of thinking, everyone nodded as they made their way to the hallway to find Raizen and Rocket. Uncertain on whether or not to trust Raizen, only time will tell for The Team and Raizen to truly trust each other.

There you have it, The Team's first reaction to Raizen! I know there is a bit of a conflict, that all that will change later on. And yes, the name Raizen is a Saiyan name for Raisin! When kurokitsune17 gave me that name, I thought to myself and said 'Oh, it's raisin!'. So expect some name calling from Kid Flash later on. Hope you enjoy this chapter and I will be back for more!
