I know I said I would still update without reviews, but I still like to get them.

I will be able to develop Dalia a lot more in this chapter. The last chapter focused around the fight.

I do not own Danny Phantom or Teen Titans

Chapter 4: Haunting of Titan's Tower part 2

"Thanks for the help." Robin said as he turned to leave. Only to pause a moment later with that contemplative look back on his face.

"What?' Dalia asked when he paused.

"What are your doing for the next hour or two?" Robin asked.

"Nothin much, but I don't think now's the best time to be asking for a date" Dalia said with a cheeky smile.

"T-That's not what I was going to ask." Robin stuttered. He quickly composed himself " I was wondering if you'd like to come back to the Tower with me. I know someone who might be able to help you with that power of yours."

Dalia chewed the inside of her lip as she thought it over. On one hand she needed to get to the store and get home before her parents started to worry. On the other this was an opportunity to control her power. Control meant she wouldn't be falling into janitor closets any more. That sounded real good.

"All Right. Your on." Dalia replied a bit more serious than before.

Dalia fell into step next to the boy wonder easily as they walked down the path. The fowl smelling water burned her nose. As they moved away from the gaping hole above them the tunnel began to get darker till she could barely see where she was going. The soft drip of water could be heard.

Then it was like someone toured a switch on. The stench of the water became almost unbearable, and the area seemed to be brighter. That soft drip now seemed to be pounding against her head along with every other sound in the vicinity. Dalia swayed on her feet and grabbed at her head. She stopped walking and crouched down and put her head between her knees.

"Are you all right." Robin asked.

"Maybe. Give me a sec." Dalia said with her eyes screwed closed as she tried to will the sounds and smells away.

Slowly the sound became quieter and the smell less potent. With an experimental opening of one of her eyes she saw that the room was less bright. Everything was still sharper than they where before the weird assault on her senses but now they where bearable.

"You ok?" Robin asked again.

"Me. Oh I'm fine" Dalia said with an uncomfortable chuckle.

Robin gave her an appraising look. Then after giving her a cut nod they pressed on.

"Then the teen titans are finished." Beastboy said as he looked across the water at their hijacked tower.

"Not yet" Robin's voice sounded from behind them. The four titans turned to see their fearless leader standing on a small hill. A lone beam of light shone on him. The wind moved his cape and ruffled his hair. He stood in a standard cool hero pose with his arms crossed.

"not if I can help it." he finished.

Dalia couldn't resist.

"All the cheese in the world couldn't compare to this." she said with a snicker.

That brought the Titans attention to her. Now that the other four teen's eyes where on her she regretted speaking up.

"Uh Robin who's this?" Cyborg asked.

Robin slid down the small hill to his team with Dalia following fight behind and answered "This is Dalia Rays. She helped me out when I was trapped in the sewer. From what I can tell she's a meta human who just came into her powers. Figured we could help her out."

A bright smile lit Starfire's face and she pulled Dalia into a bone crushing hug.

"Greetings new friend Dalia. I am most grateful that you have helped Robin from the place of the bad smelling water." She said.

"Human…contact…crushing." Dalia chocked out as she tried to pull away from the hug only to pull herself right through Starfire's arms. Dalia glared at Starfire.

"Dude. How did you do that?" Beastboy said amazed.

"We can discuss her powers later. Right now we need to get the tower back."

Inside the newly modified Titans Tower the three HIVE students where making themselves at home.

"Higher…a little to the left….a little more." Gizmo directed two small droids that held Cyborg's missing arm above the door. "Perfect."

"Slade is gunna have kittens when he hears we whipped the titans and took their stinking tower." the little genius said.

"Not to mention Robin's favorite fashion statement." Jinx added as she showed off Robins belt that was around her waist. Then she held up one of Raven's cloaks "Ugh but that's the only thing fashionable around here."

"Tell me about it. All there food is way out of date." Mammoth said as he ate a burger with strange blue fuzz on it.

"You think that stuffs rotten. Wait till you see there music." Gizmo complained as he began go through the Titan's Cds.

Suddenly red lights started to flash as a loud siren sounded. The HIVE looked around to find Dalia leaning next to one of the many control panels. A smirk was on her face.

"Who are you? How did you get in here?" Jinx demanded.

"Hmmm tell that bad guys what they want to know or ignore them all together." Dalia sarcastically asked herself. "Sorry but I'm gunna go with ignoring you."

Jinx growled "HIVE attack!"

"Please let this work Raven" Dalia thought to herself.

About an hour earlier

Raven and Dalia sat a little ways away from the others. They where all still at the beach that the other titans washed up on. Robin, Cyborg, Starfire, and Beastboy where making a plan to get back the tower. Raven had a different task.

"Tell me what you feel when you use your powers." Raven said.

"I've only ever used it once before on purpose. All I remember feeling is the need to get to Robin. The debris was in the way, and I just went through it. Why?" Dalia answered.

After a moment of thought Raven responded with "It sounds to me like your power responds to your needs and wants. You wanted to get to Robin so your powers let you."

"So it does as I want. That means I can just will it to work. Then what about all the times it acted up on it's own?" Dalia asked confused.

"For most people powers are like any other natural ability. The more you work it the more control you have." Raven answered. "You just need to work at it more."

Present

Gizmo was the first to attack. A small gun came out of his backpack and shot a yellow laser at Dalia. She sucked in a deep breath and held onto it as the beam approached her.

"Nothing can touch me." Dalia though as she tried to assure herself.

That numb tingly feeling was back. But this time it consumed her entire body. The yellow laser went right through her. Excitement blossomed in her chest. She did it. For the first time ever she controlled her power from start to finish.

"What the?" Gizmo said confused.

"Oh right I'm still in here with them" Dalia thought. Panic set in again but not as much as before. " Just stick to the plan."

She smirked at them and began to walk to the door on the other side of the HIVE. Jinx sent a pink hex at the light above Dalia and made glass and sparks fall around her. Both were unable to touch her. Mammoth charged at her and ran straight on through her. Dalia stopped in front of the door to the hall as the three villains surrounded her.

Suddenly Cyborg's mounted arm shot out several cables that wrapped around Gizmo. Two rockets sprouted on the sides of the arm. It shot into the air and up into the ventilation system, taking Gizmo with it. A large clawed black had came down from above. It swiftly grabbed Jinx and pulled her up into the ceiling. Finally the doors behind Dalia opened. Mammoth looked over at her. She gave a small wave goodbye and a bright green starbolt hit Mammoth in the back sending him through Dalia and the doors.

From there it was all down hill for the HIVE students.

Jinx, Gizmo, and Mammoth where brought to the roof and landed in a heap. Dazed and confused would have summed up how they felt quit nicely. The crash sent Robin's belt flying through the air straight into the hands of the boy wonder himself.

"Sorry to interrupt the victory celebration, but like I said this isn't over." Robin said.

"It's just getting started." Cyborg added.

Jinx glared at the Titans and said "Attack pattern Alpha."

Jinx threw pink hexes at the team, scattering them. Mammoth charged a Beastboy and threw a punch. The boy shifted into a bird, avoiding the vicious attack that broke apart the ground beneath him. Jinx vaulted over Cyborg and cast hexes at him in mid air. Starfire flew in and chased the pink haired girl away from Cyborg. Cyborg left himself obviously open and Gizmo jumped onto his back.

"Hey robo wimp. Fell like getting hacked?" Gizmo chuckled.

"Nope, how bout you? Robin now!" Cyborg said..

Robin threw a small device that latched onto Gizmo's backpack. The small device sent a electrical charge threw the pack, short circuiting it and electrocuting Gizmo. Gizmo started yelling for someone to get the thing off when the device made the rockets on the back pack activate, launching the kid into the air.

A little ways away Jinx was being chased across the roof by Starfire's green star bolts. She dogged each one with an array of acrobatic feats. Jinx landed under the metal structure used to make the large T shaped tower look like a H. Starfire pulled up away from her attempts to hit Jinx.

"Beastboy go!" the red head called out.

Beastboy jumped from a metal beam above the two girls and shifted into a small monkey. He grabbed onto Jinx's face and held on for dear life. In an attempt to get the boy off of her Jinx let out many hexes from her hands. Eventually the girl grabbed onto Beastboy and pulled him off her face and threw him away from her.

"Your luck just ran out." Beastboy said once he landed and shifted back into his human form.

A confused look crossed Jinx's face, but that confusion quickly vanished when ominous creaking sounds could he heard from the metal structure that surrounded her. All the metal began to break apart and corrode rapidly as it began to fall on top of her.

Mammoth was not fairing much better as her tried to hit Raven with one of his massive fists only for her to fly up out of his reach and land behind him. As the gargantuan man tried to regain his balance Cyborg came from the side and practically side tackled the man. Mammoth went skidding across the roof until he came to a stop. With a groan he lifted his head and was meet with Beastboy in the form of a t rex. With a girly scream he attempted to run from the dinosaur but was hit with a powerful blast from Starfire. Finally with one last kick from Robin Mammoth was knocked back into what remained of his team mates.

"Cram it, I'm calling Slade." Gizmo groaned out.

Robin grabbed Gizmo and held him up to his face.

"Who is Slade."

Again I love reviews but their not mandatory. I really want to know your thoughts.

I'm trying to ease Dalia in a little bit at a time. I don't want to just throw an OC in your face. I think that that is one of the things that make OCs so bad. People just shove a character in your face and expect you to care about her more than the characters that have already been established.

I'd also like to add that there will be no romance between Dalia and other established characters. I might put a little romance in with another OC but there wont be a lot.
