Chapter one: Another new teammate?
(A/N: Hey there readers! This is my first time posting a fanfic on here and hope y'all have fun reading it)
The Teen Titans sat on the couch. Raven as usual was reading a book, Starfire was petting silky, Beast Boy was in the form of a dog curled on the sofa fast asleep and Cyborg was trying to convince the rest of the team to let him make a heavy meat based meal for dinner as it was his turn. Raven shuddered and said "no", Starfire shook her head.
"Come on! But I cooked this morning and you guys were fine," Cyborg defended.
"Pop tarts don't exactly count as cooking, Cyborg," Raven stated.
"Yes. They were of the ready and you just had to put it in the microwave," Starfire said.
"What's wrong with my cooking?!" Cyborg queried.
Raven sighed, "it's fine but you use too much grease in your meat preparations and it upsets our stomach."
Cyborg wanted to retort but he felt she was right so all the words of defense died on his tongue.
He sighed deeply, "why did no one say anything?"
"We did not wish to do the hurting of the feelings," Starfire stated and Cyborg slunked down into the chair.
Then all of a sudden a red, yellow and green canister appeared out of nowhere and exploded revealing Robin in front of them. Raven rolled her eyes.
The loud noise had woken up beast Boy who whimpered in fright.
"Titans!" Robin called.
"What do you want now, Mr traffic light?" Cyborg asked. "I will ignore that," Robin stated.
"Whoa! Traffic light! I can't unsee it now," Raven said piping up.
"Yes, with the red, yellow and the green," Starfire stated giggling.
"I DO NOT LOOK LIKE A TRAFFIC LIGHT!" Robin burst out, "now Titans, in light of Bumble bee abandoning us, a new slot has opened up on the Teen Titans."
"What?"
"Huh?"
"There was not the slot to begin with," Starfire stated.
"Yeah we weren't looking for any new members when Bumble bee joined us," Cyborg said.
"And she barely lasted six episodes... I mean months," Raven added.
"Like a TV show trying to get higher ratings by adding a new character so the fans don't get bored," Cyborg said.
"I'M THE TEAM LEADER, ME! I GET TO DECIDE WHEN SLOTS OPEN!" Robin snapped again.
"Fine, who's this super hero anyway? Don't we at least get to interview this person first?" Raven asked.
"Yes, she should be here soon," Robin said, looking at his watch.
"A girl?! Dude, don't we have enough girls on this team?" Cyborg let out.
"Wow"
"The what?"
"There's three of you and two of us, another girl will balance us out," Raven said.
"Like it was when the friend Bumble bee was with us," Starfire added.
"Exactly," Cyborg said sarcastically.
Raven scowled and snapped her fingers. A black fist formed above Cyborg and punched him down.
Robin's watch beeped, "she's here. Remember to make a good first impression."
"Whatever bro, let's goes meets her," Beast Boy finally spoke up.
Outside, a girl of about 16years dressed in a black turtle neck top, tie dye high waisted sweatpants and black ankle boots was waiting. She had her black, long hair in an updo ponytail. She was light skinned black in complexion.
She was beginning to have second thoughts about joining them. They might be super heroes but they were also notorious assholes. Bumble bee had left cause of their disgusting attitudes.
Just as she was about to turn and go back the way she came, the Teen Titans came out of the tower. She pepped up immediately.
"I'm Robin, leader of the Teen Titans," Robin introduced, placing emphasis on the word "leader" causing Raven to roll her eyes and the others to groan slightly.
"These are my teammates..."
"Beast Boy"
"Hey there mama"
"Raven"
"Hi"
"Cyborg"
"Hey yo!"
"And finally..."
"I am the delighted to meet of the..." she cut in.
"Starfire," Robin seethed.
Starfire coughed awkwardly, "I am the sorry."
"Oh I'm Crystal," the new girl answered.
"So what can you do?" Raven asked.
"Yeah! Show us your powers!" Cyborg piped up as Robin facepalmed.
They saw a bright light shine and Crystal had transformed into her super hero outfit.
It consisted of a purple long-sleeved jump suit with a silver belly belt and silver sequined ankle boots.
"I have hydrokinesis," she stated as she moved and the sea around the tower moved on her whim. The Titans watched as she placed a palm on the water and half the sea froze then she released her hand and it melted.
They also watched as she formed ice crystals, pointy and deadly and threw them at specific targets and they made their mark.
"Also I can do my hydrokinesis from the water in the air if there's no water nearby," she informed.
"There's something you're not telling us, isn't it?" Robin queried.
Crystal was startled.
"Well, as there's water in the blood and in the human body, I can control human beings and creatures with water in them. I only use it as a defense mechanism or as a last resort or when I'm extremely angry and I lose control. Also I can't use my powers during a lunar eclipse," she divulged.
The Titans seemed rather frightened with her ability to control human beings and were on the verge of refusing her. "I also have fashion magic," she said desperately, sensing their feelings.
Robin raised an eyebrow. They watched her moved her arms rhythmically. A bright light emanated from them.
When the light faded, they looked down and their outfits had changed.
Robin was now in a black tuxedo with matching trousers and shoes. Cyborg was in a black blazer with dark blue jeans and white sneakers. Beast Boy was in a tie dye hoodie similar to the sweatpants she had been wearing earlier.
Raven was wearing a black flared dress with slim straps that stopped at her knees and purple heels. Starfire was in a pink button down blouse and black jeans with nude platform heels.
"I can also change your hairstyles if you want me to," Crystal stated.
"You're in!" the Titans stated collectively and she jumped excitedly.
The Titans gave her a tour of the grounds and the tower. The last stop was at her room.
"This was bumble bee's old room but you can remodel it as you want to," Cyborg said excitedly.
She smiled. 'Maybe they aren't so bad after all,' she thought.
"But there's something we must tell you before you settle in," Robin said with a sad sigh.
Starfire sighed too, "the yes." "What's wrong?" Crystal asked.
"Well, we know you are friends with Bumble Bee and she must've told you about how horrible we are. As much as I want to deny it but she's right. We're monster roommates," Robin informed, obviously ashamed.
"We are the garbage people with no respect of the personal space and are the socially awkward," Starfire added. The others looked on sadly.
"Guys you really don't have to worry about me, I was part of Teen Titans north. You may not be familiar with them but if I survived them, I'm sure I'll be fine," Crystal said with a smile.
"Wow I'm glads you're excited to join us Mama!" Beast Boy said.
"Oh the joy!" Starfire piped up.
"You know what, just for your attitude to this and even wanting to join us in the first place, we'll try to change, for you," Robin stated.
"Wow thanks, I guess I'll settle down now," Crystal said and entered the room.
"Did you clean the room?" Robin asked. "No I thought you did," Cyborg answered.
"Oh no," they chorused in horrified whispers.
As if on cue, they heard Crystal's horrified screams that had them flying backwards. "What the fuck is this?" they heard her curse from behind the door.
"They're having a guest and they didn't think to clean the fucking room! Cyborg was saying 'remodel' as though it was in any state at all! It's not their fault though, I would've joined the justice league but no... 'You're too young!' Shit, shit, shit! Bumble bee was right- Mr Traffic light, tin can, syntax deficit grass stain, bad grammar alien princess and fake goth girl are the motherfucking worst!" she ranted and they listened from outside her door in horror.
After awhile the ranting and cursing stopped and they heard her breathe a sigh of relief. It seemed like she was coming towards the door and Raven teleported them to the living room.
However, instead of opening the door and walking out, Crystal seemed to teleport into the hallway. "Settled down so fast?" Robin asked, fidgety when she walked into the living room.
She looked at him in the eyes then ignored him and walked into the kitchen. "Well that was rude," Beast Boy said when she was out of ear shot.
Cyborg: Well I don't blame her. We gave her a filthy room to sleep in.
Robin: And she seems like a neat freak.
Raven: A neat freak on the Teen Titans? She'll be out by next episode... I mean week.
The crime alert sounded just then. Crystal came out of the kitchen munching on an apple just as Robin sat at the controls.
"It's Brother Blood. He and his army of robots are destroying the city," Robin said.
"TITANS GO!"
They arrived at the city square where the robots had just destroyed City Hall. The citizens ran helter skelter.
"Titans... I see you've gotten a new member. How long before she ups and leaves you too?" Brother Blood asked.
"What are you up to this time, you maniac?!" Robin returned.
"Well I got sick of small scale plans and decided to go big or go home. I created this robot army for world domination. First jump city, then the world!" Brother blood announced.
"Not on our watch. Raven, Beast Boy get the people to safety. Starfire, Cyborg, Crystal, you're with me. TITANS GO!" Robin ordered.
Robin threw a couple of birdarangs at the robots and they exploded. Starfire shot a volley of her green bolts at them, Cyborg used his sonic canon against the robots. Crystal was using her ice crystals to cut through the bots.
"Silly Titans, you can't stop me," Brother blood laughed then snapped his fingers. More robots appeared. "Oh hell no! They're too many!" Cyborg stated. "Yes, we cannot do the holding back of them for the much of the longer!" Starfire yelled.
"What if we take out the source?!" Crystal asked as she froze the robots. "Brother Blood's bot! You're a genius," Robin said. "Cover me, I'm going in," he stated.
Beast Boy and Raven arrived just then but were quickly surrounded by robots. "Azarath Metrion Zinthos!" Raven said her mantra and the robots surrounding her and Beast Boy were destroyed.
Beast Boy then transformed into a bull and pummeled through the bots. Robin was having difficulty getting to Brother blood's bot, "Crystal, create a path for me." She flew up and created little ice glaciers for Robin to jump on in order to get to Brother blood.
Crystal was suddenly pulled out of her position by a couple of bots. Beast Boy rampaged through them, saving her. Then he transformed into a gorilla and caught her so she wouldn't hit the ground.
"You good, mama?" he asked as he put her down and continued fighting the robots. She nodded and did same.
"Oh no, Robin needs help!" Raven yelled out. Brother Blood had captured him with his bot and he was struggling to get out of the grip of the robot.
"Beast Boy, throw me!" Crystal said and he threw her over to the bot. She used her powers to create a sword. When she got there, she used the sword to cut the robot from the top to bottom before landing.
Nothing happened at first then the robot fell apart. One by one the other bots followed. Robin handcuffed Brother blood as the latter stood up from the rubble cursing. He broke the cuffs and tapped a remote. A helicopter came and picked him up.
"I'll get you for this, Titans! I'll be back!" he yelled and the helicopter carried him away.
Back at the tower*
Robin- I can't believe we did it!
Cyborg- Booyah!
Beast Boy- That's what's up my peeps.
Robin turned to Crystal, "you were really amazing out there today." She shrugged and gave a small smile, "thanks."
"Look, we're sorry about the room," Cyborg said, touching her shoulder.
"It's OK, I fixed it," she said, "but my room is off limits."
"Understood," the rest chorused.
"What's for dinner? I'm starving," Beast Boy asked.
"I'll order a pizza," Robin said and the others celebrated.
"Welcome to the Teen Titans, friend Crystal," Starfire said and hugged her. "Can't breathe," Crystal said and the alien princess apologized with a giggle. They all laughed heartily.
