70Hello, people pf ! I don't own Teen Titans. But I do own my OC villains. Even though he's evil, I think that Minus is cool. :) Anyway, here's a new chapter.
Our Mirrored Future
Chapter 20
"Hah!" Robin threw a birdarang, only to have it explode after being hit by a bolt of light.
"Robin, your weapons won't be of any use against Spark," Nightwing called, indicating to the blonde woman attacking them. "Her light is just like an ember of a flame: short-lived, but still burns. They can explode as well. "
Spark smirked. "Aw, Nightwing, you know about my power? I'm touched." He barely had time to flip to the left as she sent a large ball of light sailing toward him.
"What about him, Nightwing?" Beast Boy called, shifting into his human form just long enough to ask the question. When he shifted back, it was into a bear, clawing at the large man in front of him. His handlebar mustache and spandex shorts made him gag, but it also made him wonder if his power was just brute strength or something else.
Nightwing dived to the side, narrowly avoiding another blue ember. "Isn't it obvious? Strength. Not very skilled in martial arts, though…."
Beast Boy landed, sliding from his bird form back to human, and slapped the future leader's hand. "Let's switch then." Without waiting for any consent, he changed into a monkey and charged Spark.
The woman was quick to fling her light balls directly at him, only to gasp when he agilely dodged all of them. He was just about to pounce on her when she lifted her leg to kick and he was forced to flip back. Once in his teenage body, he muttered, "Man, so close." With a glance to his leader, he said, "Yo, Rob. You up for some two on one?"
The boy wonder smirked. "You know it, BB."
Exchanging nothing but a grin, the two teenagers charged at the blonde woman, Beast Boy changed into a cobra snake and Robin gripping his Bo staff. Spark conjured up a storm of blue embers, putting extra effort to make their speed increase. Her eyes widened when Robin disappeared into thin air.
"Hey! Where'd spiky go?" With only one opponent visible, she focused all of her attention on the green changeling. After closing her eyes and building up her energy, she held her hands out in front of her and formed an ember much larger than the others, sending it barreling toward the green cheetah sprinting her way. It zoomed toward him, blinding the boy before exploding in a shower of blue. With a heavy exhale and a bead of sweat rolling down her forehead, the woman smirked. "Not so tough now, are you, mutt?" She laughed as the smoke dispersed. But it quickly transformed into a gasp as Robin appeared above her. "How the-"Her sentence was cut short as the boy wonder brought down his staff, knocking her unconscious.
A green turtle in the middle of the floor poked its head out of its shell. "Hey, dude, how'd you do that?"
Robin smirked and pointed behind him. The shape shifter's eyes went wide.
"Cheshire?" The girl removed her grinning mask to give him a grin of her own.
"Long time no see, Titans." She had gotten taller, face gotten smoother, and her long, deadly hair had grown in length, now held up higher on her head but still able to drag the ground. Her green kimono had been replaced with a light green leotard with one long sleeve and green combat boots.
"Dude, since when can you make other people invisible, too?"
She smiled. "With age come new powers. You should know that, Garfield honey."
He grinned sheepishly, rubbing his head slightly.
"Uh," Nightwing interjected. "I could use some help here!" With a swift knock to the head from behind, their strong opponent was out like a light.
"Wait," Beast Boy announced, looking the woman up and down suspiciously. "Aren't you evil?"
She giggled. "Oh, no, honey. That was in the past. I was undercover with Wally."
Nightwing raised an eyebrow. "Wally's here?"
"Sure am, Nighty." In a flash of red and yellow, there stood an older version of Kid Flash. His hair, although still held in the air by various hair gels, had grown longer. His outfit's sixe had been altered, but otherwise remained the same. "Well not that I'm not happy to be reunited after-what has it been? Two months since we've seen each other? But what're you guys-"His gaze finally trailed to the two past titans. "Oh my god. What did you do now, Rich?"
Nightwing sighed. "That's not the problem right now, Wally. We have to get back to-"
"Raven!" Beast Boy exclaimed, turning to run out of the warehouse. "I have to get back to her." Robin grabbed his arm before he could bolt.
"Hold it, Beast Boy." Ignoring the glare he was receiving, he reached into his utility belt and retracted his communicator. "Titans, come in."
Cyborg's face flicked on the small screen. "What's up, Rob? Did you find them?"
"Yeah, but we're heading back to the tower. You guys should do the same."
The half robot nodded. "Will do. See ya there, man."
The boy wonder closed his communicator and looked to Beast Boy. "If these guys are as good as you think they'll be, we should have back up."
The green changeling nodded hurriedly. "Okay, okay. Can we just go already? My animal instincts are telling me we need to go. Plus, what point will backup be if we're not there to be backed up?" Without waiting for a response, he shifted into a pterodactyl and grabbed both leaders in each claw before flying off. Flash looked to Cheshire, who looked at him expectantly.
"Well, hop on." After dawning her grinning mask, she climbed atop his back and he ran after the trio of heroes.
Yeah, I know. Not very long. But hold on 'til next chapter. Raven and Minus square off. It's gonna be good! I can't wait to write it. But I'd still like to hear your thoughts so REVIEW PLEASE!
