DISCLAIMER: I don't own the Teen Titans; I do own the sandwich I ate this morning though! ^_^
I'd like to thank everyone who reviewed for their support! It was greatly appreciated! And thanks to those of you who pushed me to hurry up! You guys helped too!
And last but not least; I'd like to thank everyone who read but didn't feel like reviewing. You know who you are! I'm actually a very chatty person; but go ahead and review, and then just tell me if you want me to leave you alone!
I'm done now!
ON WITH THE FANFICTION! (that never gets old!)
Brotherhood of Evil HQ…
Everything was falling into place according to plan and the world was at its knees. The various other superheroes of the Justice League were away, doing who knows what. All that the Brain cared to know was that they were millions of light-years away from Earth, entangled in some obscure intergalactic emergency.
As he played chess with Monsieur Mallah, he paused to admire his new collection. His artificial eyes scanned his prizes.
The collection consisted of row upon row of shelves, each lined with frozen superheroes. His gaze fell on the top row, which held his most prized icy statues.
Cyborg, Robin, an empty space, Starfire…
The robotic eyes of the Brain darted back to the empty space between Robin and Starfire, and his eyes glowed red with fury.
"Mallah, my col-lection is in-com-plete."
The oversized gorilla shrugged,
"Well, the wrestler, the mute boy, the horn blowing lad, and the other little twin escaped; but they pose no threat."
"But the sorceress is still at large."
The gorilla grinned as he knocked over the Brain's chess piece.
"The trap has been set for her, and if she does not bleed to death we will capture her soon. She cannot escape."
The Infirmary…
As Robin stood over her, Raven stirred. Cyborg shifted in his chair,
"She's waking up."
Her lilac eyes darted open and rested on Robin, a small sigh of relief escaping her lips,
"I made it."
She sat up slowly, wincing as a wave of vertigo and agony washed over her. Raven glanced around the room, her curious gaze met first with amethyst eyes, identical to her own.
She stared in wonder at an exact copy of herself, then she moved on to Starfire, the alien warrior-princess, who was exactly as she remembered her; and Cyborg, the half-teen half-machine who looked exhausted.
She finally stopped on a green boy in his late teens. He had pointed ears, and, judging from her lower vantage point, he was probably taller than her. His muscular physic was accented by the skin-tight purple and black uniform that he wore.
He smiled widely at her, exposing sharp fangs.
Even though she could have sworn that she had never seen a green person before; something about him seemed very familiar for some reason. It was in the way he smiled, the way his emerald eyes lit up, and the way he just seemed to radiate positivity the way that the sun radiated heat.
Then it all clicked into place.
She gasped as staggering realization hit,
"Gar!"
She then flung herself at him, ignoring the sharp pain that it triggered, and wrapped her arms around his broad chest; burying her face into his shirt, just breathing in the scent of him.
He tensed in surprise at first; but then loosened up as he returned her warm embrace,
"Hey, Rae!"
The purple haired Raven stood leaning against the titanium wall, frozen in shock, as a long forgotten emotion resurfaced. She hadn't felt this emotion since Terra had walked out of their lives so many years ago.
Jealousy…
Okay, I know it was short; but this chapter and the last were originally one chapter. I broke them up so that you wouldn't have to wait so long!
I might do it again with the next one; as I still have a lot of stuff to work out!
It will help a lot to hear your opinions! I know that a lot of you do not review; and you really should.
I just might be more motivated to update sooner! ^_^
Oh, and if any of you haven't been reading 'Collateral Damage'; shame on you! You call yourself a 'FanFiction Reader'!?
Novus also has a very captivating poetry corner!
'The Wild Man's Journey' by TheForceIsStrongWithThisOne is really great too! The plot twists and turns; and it kinda pulls you in, y'know?
And last, but certainly not least; 'Love Hurts' by GlacierBlueRose is a good one too! Lots of BBXRae fluffiness!
If I left a review on your story; but didn't mention it; I'm really sorry!
I don't review unless I like a story; as I don't like to leave unkind words or harsh critique. So I did like it even if I forgot to mention it in here! (I have a very bad memory)
Later Days!
