DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN THE TEEN TITANS.
Here is the next chapter. I have another note at the end expressing some random thoughts. :) Hope you enjoy.
Looking around them, they could hardly believe they were standing in the place where it all started. The building that had been destroyed during battle now stood resurrected. For Starfire it brought back physically painful memories, for the others the beginning of the end. They had arrived in the newly repaired T-Car, something Cyborg had been working on for the past 10 years. With their new car came new outfits. Cyborg looked the same but he had been able to make a device that created an illusion to the naked eye, making him look completely human. Rather than her leotard, Raven wore an all black suit with royal blue knee-high boots and a blue cape (very similar to her attire as a teen). Her black shirt showed majority of her mid-drift accept for a small piece of the shirt that crossed her stomach. Her hair was now past her shoulders and layered. Starfire's hair was about the same length but about twice as thick and the color was a deep red. She stayed with the skirt and went for knee-high purple boots. Her shirt was long sleeved and tied around the neck (also purple) but showed both her mid-drift and her shoulders, and had a black V-shaped stripe starting in right-hand sleeve and moving down left. Gar, who had also been able to hide his natural green skin, wore a completely black suit with black converse.
It was still hard to believe that they were standing back at the beginning. It wasn't surprising that the door was still located in the same place but it took a while before they were prepared to opened it and venture in.
Carefully, they walked into the building, quietly closing the doors behind them. The inside looked the same as it did that fateful day. Large cargo boxes stood everywhere and the Titans felt as if shadows were lurking around every bend. They carefully made their way to the center of the building, hoping that some light would be shed on their current situation. Once there they looked at the only light source in the entire building.
"Scanners aren't picking up anything."
The whoosh of a foreign object put all the Titans on their guard. The object hit the light, causing it to swing before lodging itself in the concrete floor. Starfire picked it up and showed it to the others.
"It's the same shape as Robin's." Raven said
"Yea, and it's the same size." Beast Boy said.
"But it is not the same color." Starfire said.
"That is very true. Well, done Starfire." The eerie deep voice came from above. A figure jumped down to the floor staying in the shadows.
"Hey, man, we do not want a fight. Just tell us who you are." Cyborg demanded.
"We already know who it is," Starfire stated, "Robin?"
"Robin? Is it really you man?" Cyborg intently asked.
The figure slowly made his way into the light. What the Titans saw was a shock and a joy at the same time. They saw a man wearing an all black suit with a blue bird across his chest, short black spiked hair, and a mask covering his eyes.
"Well, I haven't gone by that name in a long time. I'm known as Nightwing." he stated with a smile.
Ok, so, now that I am looking back it might have made sense to put Ch 7 & 8 together. That way it would have been longer and Ch 7 wouldn't seem to be pointless. Let me know what you think, b/c the more I think about it the more it kinda makes sense.
Oh, and what do you think about our mystery person. I am curious to know whether you thought it was him or not. Please, PLEASE REVIEW!!!
