Hey guys, I'm back! Hope you had an awesome holiday. I did. Can't wait for the New Year! To say goodbye to an old year and say hello the new one. Well, time to say hello to a new chapter. Please enjoy!

Chapter 2: Terra

"And the time is…one minute, thirty five seconds!" Danny announced as Robin reached the finish line. "That's your best record yet, Rob."

The Teen Titans were currently in the desert near the city, training on a rock terrain. Danny decided to train the Titans endurance, using the intense heat of the sun and the rocky obstacles. Danny also added that no one should use their powers. And to make things more interesting, the slowest one will clean the tower for a week.

Beastboy was a little nervous, since he currently has the longest time to finish the obstacle. Cyborg had a smug look on his face, seeing no one beat his one-minute record, yet.

Robin took a deep breath as he wiped the sweat off his head. As Robin went to stand with the others, Danny threw the stopwatch to Cyborg and started stretching.

"Get ready, Cy," Danny said as he stood in the starting line, grinning. "You're about to lose, again."

"Dream on, Spooks," Cyborg said as he readied the stopwatch.

Starfire stood beside the starting line and raised her hand.

"Your marks under you, set to get…go!" she exclaimed as she waved her hand.

Danny started running through the sandy terrain. But as he was about to climb the rocky mountain, they heard someone shouting. Danny immediately stopped running as everyone looked at the source of the scream.

"What was that?" Beastboy said as his ears perked up.

"Only one way to find out," Danny said, forgetting about the obstacle course. "Titans, go!"

Everyone dashed towards the trouble. Once they reached the place, they saw a blond girl running away a giant scorpion. They watched as the girl ran towards a rocky mountain, completely trapped.

"Titans, a-!" Danny exclaimed when the mystery girl suddenly raised her hands, which started glowing yellow.

"What the?" Robin said as they watched the scene in front of them.

The ground suddenly shook violently as the girl screamed, her hands glowing brightly. The Titans watched with awe as the rocky mountain started shifting. The girl made a pillar from where she was standing to get away from the scorpion, which was staring at the moving mountain. Before it could react, the girl clasped her hands together. Before the scorpion could react, part of the mountain fell on it, burying it.

"She was not in trouble," Starfire said as the girl wiped the sweat off her face.

"She was leading it into a trap," Raven said, looking at the place where the scorpion was buried.

"Question is…" Cyborg said with an interest look.

"Who is she?" Robin said with a slight blush in his face.

Raven noticed the blush and immediately felt irritated. She glared at the Wonder Boy, who looked at her.

"…What?" Robin asked with a confused expression.

Danny snorted as he watched Raven turned away from him. They walked towards the girl, who climbed down the pillar she made. When she saw them walking towards her, she looked excited.

"Hi," Danny said as he walked towards her, offering a handshake. "I'm Danny Phantom. We're-"

"The Teen Titans!" the girl exclaimed as she turned the handshake into a fist bump. "I heard all about you guys, you rock! I'm Terra, a fellow hero."

She walked towards the Titans, looking at each of them.

"You're Starfire, Raven, Cyborg, Beastboy," Terra said pointing at them. "And you're-"

"Robin," Robin said with a nervous smile. "The only Titan without a power."

He leaned on something, and immediately jumped away, since he leaned on a cactus. Terra laughed as Cyborg and Beastboy removed the needles from Robin's back.

"I didn't know you were so funny," she said, gasping for air.

"Well, I'm not all serious," Robin said, holding back the tears.

"Yes you are," Beastboy said. "I'm the funny one here."

"No you're not," Danny said. "I'm the funny one. You're the not-so funny one."

Beastboy glared at Danny as Raven gave Robin an annoyed look with a slight look of jealousy. Starfire floated towards Terra with a curious expression.

"May I asked a few questions, stranger?" she asked.

"Sure," Terra said with a grin.

"Wheredoyoucomefrom? Howdidyougethere? Whatisyourfavoritecolor? Willyoubemyfriend?" Starfire asked with one breath as she leaned a little bit closer to Terra, who backed away slightly.

"Uh…Earth, walked, red…and sure?" Terra replied.

She soon regretted her answer as Starfire squealed in delight as she gave her one of her famous bone-crushing hugs.

"It is wondrous to meet you, new friend!" she shrieked as Terra slowly turned blue.

"How's it going?" Terra grunted as she slowly losses consciousness.

"Uh Star…" Danny said as he noticed Terra turning purple. "She can't breath."

Starfire immediately released her. As Terra gasped for air, Robin quickly made her way towards her.

"So, what's a girl like you doing here?" he asked once Terra's face returned to normal.

"I go where the wind takes me," Terra replied simply like it was just like talking a walk. "You know, see new places, meet new people, beat up a few bad guys here and there."

"Cool!" Beastboy exclaimed.

"Awesome," Robin said with a grin.

"Fascinating!" Starfire agreed.

"Aright!" Cyborg exclaimed.

Raven and Danny shared a questioning glance with each other as they rephrased what she just said.

"So…you don't have a home?" Danny asked.

"The Earth is my home," Terra said, gesturing at the land in front of her. "I've been crashing in a cave on the other side of the hill."

"Unacceptable!" the alien exclaimed, surprising the blond girl. "I cannot permit my new friend to slumber in a lonely cave of darkness!"

"…I have a flashlight…"

"You will stay with us!" Starfire declared in a tone that leaves no room for argument as she grabbed Terra's arm.

"Really," Terra said, trying to fight a losing battle. "I'm fine…"

"Come on, we have plenty of room," Cyborg said as he helped Starfire pushed Terra.

"It's be fun, dude!" Beastboy said excitedly.

"C'mon Terra," Robin said with a grin. "You'd like it in the Tower."

"Well…maybe I could stay one night," Terra said with a chuckle.

The four Titans cheered as they began to drag Terra towards the direction of the Tower. Danny and Raven were starring at Terra with a calculative expression. Danny then turned towards the pillar Terra made and walked towards it.

"You feeling okay?" Raven asked as Danny studied the pillar.

"Just fine," Danny replied, still looking at the pillar. "You guys go on ahead. I'm gonna do some stretching."

Raven nodded and floated towards the others. She knew Danny like the back of her hand, so she knew something was up. She decided to keep a close eye on their new friend. Danny tapped the pillar with his foot. He narrowed his eyes a bit at the pillar.

"Seems like our new friend has some secrets," he said as he turned around and walked away. "Let's see how important these secrets are."

As he said that, the pillar crumbled away, turning into a pile of sand and rocks.

Titan's Tower…

The Titans looked at their now mudded bathroom. A now clean Terra wrapped in a bathrobe and a towel on her head stood next to them, looking a little sheepish.

"Sorry about that," she laughed.

Terra then walked towards the living room with the Titans behind her. They stopped in front of the door as Terra used their sink to wash her clothes, putting the clothes on a clothesline to dry.

Starfire suddenly appeared next to Terra, carrying one of her home planet's cooking; yellow jelly with tentacles.

"Would you like some of my home planet's cooking?" she asked as she handed a spoon to Terra.

The others, except Danny, ran towards Terra, trying to stop her. He never understood what was wrong with Starfire's cooking. It tasted great to him. Terra took the spoon and took a spoonful of the jelly before the others could stop her.

"Hm…tastes like ice cream flavored sushi," Terra said as she started eating. "Can I have more?"

Starfire squealed in delight as she ran to get more jelly. Everyone but Danny stared at Terra with a shock expression as she devoured the yellow jelly ravenously. After finishing the fifth bowl, Terra walked towards their sofa, put on some earphones and sat down. The second she sat down, she yawned and immediately closed her eyes, snoring soundly.

"She seems…comfortable," Raven said with a hint of disappointment.

"Wonder how long she had a decent place to crash," Beastboy wondered sadly.

"She needs more than a place to crash," Danny said, looking at his team.

"She needs a home," Starfire finished.

"Then why not our home?" Robin suggested with a slight grin. "She could stay with us."

"Yes!" Starfire exclaimed quietly so she wouldn't wake their visitor.

"I don't know…" Raven said reluctantly.

"She could make an excellent member of the team," Cyborg argued.

"First, we have to see what she can do," Danny said, looking at Terra's sleeping form. "Until then, we just let her sleep. Now only one question remains."

"What's that?" Beastboy asked.

"Who's gonna clean the mess?" Danny asked.

"Obviously the one with the worst time," Cyborg said with a wicked grin.

"Why me!?"

"Not you, B.B.," Cyborg said, shushing him. "I meant Danny."

"You say huh now?" Danny demanded.

"Look at your time," Cyborg said, handing the stopwatch to Danny.

The halfa took the watch and looked at it. His eyes widened when he saw the time.

"Ten minutes!" Danny exclaimed so loudly, but Starfire quickly covered his mouth. "Did you even stopped the watch when we saved her?" he demanded once Starfire removed her hand.

"A bets a bet, dude," Beastboy with a grin of relief.

"So start cleaning," Cyborg said as he handed a mop and bucket to Danny.

"I am gonna get you back for this," Danny said with a glare as he walked towards the defiled bathroom.

Robin chuckled as he watched the halfa walked towards the bathroom. He then turned and saw Raven glaring at him.

"What?" Robin asked with a confused look.

"Nothing," Raven said with a slight angry tone.

She calmly walked towards the door, but not before Robin suddenly slipped, hitting face first on the floor.

"What was that about?" Beastboy asked as Raven exited the living room, the doors closing with a swish!

Later…

Terra stretched as she stood from the sofa. That was the best sleep she had in ages. She walked towards the large windows and looked at the amazing view.

"Great view, right," a voice said, startling her.

Terra turned around and saw Danny Phantom wiping the dishes. He looked exhausted as he put the dish away.

"I am beat," Danny said as he stretched his arms. He then walked towards the fridge and pulled out a bottle of water. "Want something to drink."

"Nah, I'm good," Terra said, declining politely.

Danny shrugged and drank the bottle. He walked towards Terra and stared out the window. The two just stood there, looking at the view.

"The views better with the sun is rising," Danny said after minutes of silence.

"Can't wait to see it," Terra said, not knowing where this is going.

"By the way, we're gonna have a little obstacle course tomorrow," Danny said as he threw the bottle, shooting it in the trash. "So you better get ready."

"O-okay," Terra stammered nervously.

"Well, I'll see you tomorrow," Danny said with a wave on his hand as he walked towards the door. "Get a good night rest."

Terra looked down a bit as she watched Danny walked away. He suddenly stopped and slightly turn his head.

"By the way, Terra," he said. "The Teen Titans aren't just a team of superheroes, we're also a family. And there will always be a place the Titans."

He gave her a small smile before he exited the door, leaving a slightly stump Terra alone. She looked down with a sad expression as she turned to the view outside.

"…A family…" she whispered to herself. She suddenly started when the doors opened again. She turned and saw Robin entering the room, carrying a blanket.

"Oh. Uh…hey," he said with a nervous grin. "I thought you might like a blanket. Did I wake you?"

"Nah," Terra said with a smile. "Just enjoying the view."

The two just stood there, feeling suddenly awkward.

"So…wanna take a stroll?" Robin suggested.

"Uh…sure, why not?" Terra replied.

Robin led Terra outside the Tower, walking on the bay. The two then sat on a large rock and stared out the ocean, telling stories.

"Awesome," Robin said after Terra told him a story about how she fought giant Komodo dragon. "So, you travel a lot?"

"Yup," Terra said as she picked up a random rock and threw it toward the water. "I've almost been everywhere."

"I use to travel a lot," Robin said, looking up. "Back when…I used to live in the circus…good times."

"You're a circus boy?" Terra said, giggling a bit.

Robin stuck his tongue at Terra. She stuck her tongue back at him. Soon, the two were making funny faces at each other. The two laughed with Terra as the winner.

"…I can't stay here," Terra suddenly said, looking down. "I don't belong here."

"Yes you do," Robin said, looking at Terra. "You'll love it here."

"No, I really can't stay here," Terra said sadly. "I…"

"What is it?" Robin asked. "You can tell me."

"I…I can't control my powers," Terra admitted, looking away.

"What?" Robin said with wide eyes. "But…this morning…"

"I was just pretending," Terra said, hiding her face on her knees. "The truth is…I can't control my powers. Every time I used them, I ended up destroying things. That's why I can't stay here. I'll only cause trouble."

"We'll help you," Robin said as he put a hand on her shoulder.

"No!" Terra exclaimed. "I can't let the others know. If they found out…promise me you won't tell!"

Robin looked at Terra, her eyes filled with fear. After a moment of hesitation, he nodded. Terra smiled, looking relieved.

"Thank you," Terra said as she suddenly hugged Robin, causing him to go cherry red.

"N-n-n-n-no problem," Robin stammered.

Unaware by them, Raven was watching them in the shadows, feeling angry for some reason. As she was about to teleport to her room, the rocks next to her cracked, turning into rubble.

The Next Day…

"All right!" Cyborg exclaimed, finishing the obstacle course in no time flat as the others cheered. "Best record in the entire course!"

"Of course it is," Raven said as she and Danny maintained the obstacle course. "You're the first one to do the course."

Danny snorted a bit as Cyborg glared at Raven. He then turned his attention to their visitor.

"Time to show your stuff, Terra," Danny said.

Terra suddenly looked nervous. She nodded and walked towards the finish line, putting on her goggles. Robin noticed her nervousness and decided to give some advice.

"You'll do well, Terra," he said with a grin. "Besides, we're not in the city. So if you mess up, no one will get hurt…" he noticed the look Terra was giving him. "…And I'll shut up now."

Robin walked back to the others as Terra took a deep breath to calm herself. Danny activated the countdown. The others who weren't maintaining the course started cheering for Terra.

"Do not lose control," Terra muttered to herself. "Don't lose control."

The countdown reached zero and blasters suddenly appeared in front of her. Terra clenched her fists, causing it to glow yellow. Just as the blasters hit her, a wall appeared in front of her, blocking the blasters. The wall then suddenly flew towards the blasters, destroying it.

Before she could enjoy her small victory, blasters appeared around her. Terra quickly reacted by creating a pillar to avoid the blasters. The pillar then fell on the blasters, destroying it. Terra was safely floating on a rock, clinging on it for dear life.

She suddenly panicked when giant metal fists appeared from the ground, blocking her way. She clung on the boulder for dear life as she avoided the fists. One fist managed to hit her, breaking the rock. Terra quickly raised her hand, trying to summon another rock.

Luckily, one large rock flew towards her. She managed to cling on it before she hit the ground. She sighed in relief, which turned into a scream as she flew towards some rocky cliffs. She grabbed the edge of the rock and pulled it sideways, causing it to swerve.

She then flew towards a set of giant hurdles. She jumped off the rocks and made a bridge to pass the hurdles, breaking it in the process.

"We're gonna need a new obstacle course," Raven commented to Danny, who activated another obstacle.

Terra screamed as a long hole appeared in front of her. Terra jumped of her bridge and used her power to summon small rocks, using them as platforms. She jumped from rock to rock when she accidentally slipped. Terra hands glowed brightly as she fell towards the hole.

Two small rocks flew towards her and she grabbed them. She sighed in relief as the rocks started floating towards the end of the hole. Terra let go of the small rocks and used her powers to control a bigger rock. She landed on the rock and started flying towards the finish line.

Suddenly, disk throwers appeared in front of her. Acting quickly, she used the rock as a shield, blocking the disks. With a wave of her hand, Terra threw a barrage of rocks at the disks, blocking it. One of the disks then hit the rock, causing it to explode.

Terra flew towards the finish line and landed on her feet, stumbling a bit. She looked up and saw everyone staring at her. She quickly straightened up with her arms in the air like she planned to land like that. Robin, Cyborg, Beastboy and Starfire cheered as Terra walked towards them.

"Booyah!" Cyborg exclaimed.

"Glorious!" Starfire cheered.

"You're the man!" Beastboy exclaimed. "I mean…you're not a man…good job!"

"See? You did alright," Robin said with a grin.

Terra smiled widely, a little embarrassed by the compliments her new friends were giving her. She didn't notice the looks Danny and Raven were giving her.

Later…

The Titans were in their living room, sharing jokes and eating pizza. Terra was laughing along with them, enjoying the pizza and the company. For the first time, she felt welcomed.

"Thanks for everything, you guys," she said with a smile. "I've never felt like this before."

"Hey, we're glad we met you," Robin said as he tried to lean on the table, only to slipped when he leaned on a slice of pizza.

"I'm not cleaning that," Raven said as she calmly ate her pizza. Danny groaned, seeing he still has six days of cleaning.

"By the way, Terra," Danny said as he drank some cola. "Can I speak with you in the training room. Alone."

"Uh…sure," Terra said with a surprised look.

She stood up and followed Danny through the door. Everyone except Raven was looking at them with a mixture of confusion and surprise.

Danny and Terra were in the training room, alone. Terra was a little confused as Danny was face away from her.

"…What do you want to talk about?" Terra asked, feeling uncomfortable with the silence.

"I know your secret," Danny said, turning to look at Terra who had a shock expression on her face.

"What!" Terra exclaimed with a panic tone. "H-h-h-how did you…he told you, didn't he!"

Terra was fuming mad, thinking that Robin told him about her secret. She stormed towards the door when Danny suddenly blocked her way.

"No one told me," he said, trying to calm Terra down. "I figured it out. I was trained by the World's Greatest Detective."

"So I guess you want me to leave," Terra said, looking down.

"Actually, I want the opposite," Danny said, causing Terra to look up. "I want you to stay here and I'll be training you to use your powers."

"W-what?" Terra said, surprised.

"I know how it feels like to be confused," Danny said as he made a small green orb. "To feel afraid by having something you can't control. So I want to help you."

"…But how can you help me?"

"C'mon, Terra," Danny said with a smirk as the orb disappeared. "You didn't really think I was able to use my powers the first day I had them. In fact, my pants fell down in front of an entire crowd. Don't ask."

"…Can you really help me?" Terra asked, her eyes pleading.

"Of course, that's what friends are for," Danny said with a smile.

Terra smiled and gave him a small hug, which Danny returned. Terra then released the hug and gave Danny a grateful smile.

"Let's go back to the others," Danny said. Terra nodded and was about to pass by Danny when he suddenly stopped her. "But first, welcome the team."

He held out a small, yellow device with a T in the middle. Terra looked at it with wide eyes as she took the communicator. She looked at Danny and tried to say something, but the words were caught in her throat.

"You're welcome," Danny said as he patted her head. "Now c'mon before they finished all the pizza."

Terra watched as Danny exited the room before turning to her new communicator. She hugged the device, feeling like she finally has a home.

And that's how Terra joined the Teen Titans. Now I know that you guys are a little surprise by Robin's sudden crush, but he's a teenager, and we know teenagers develop crushes. Don't worry, I'm still supporting for RobXRae, I just wanted to add a little drama. Anyway, time to reply!
