Hey, people. Crazy Teen Titan fan here with a new story.

Something I scratched up during my layover to St. Louis. Hope you like/dislike or feel some positive/negative emotion for. This is my first TT fanfic, so don't throw rotten tomatoes at your screen... that would be weird for us all.

Humor me!

CHAPTER 1

I ran.

Really, I was amazed that I escaped HIM so easily. My unique ability to create and conduct electricity made me a valuable asset to HIM. After another two whole months of "training," I was finally able to escape the "cell" HE put me in every night. Actually, I didn't even know where I was. It was dark, and I was running on… sand, perhaps? I didn't stop to find out. My waist length, dark brown hair flew behind me as I pushed myself faster.

After about an hour, I stopped and collapsed – panting, heart racing. I guess I fell asleep, because the next time I opened my eyes, I saw the sun shining above a distant mountain. I jumped up, rubbing my eyes and taking in my surroundings. It appeared as though I was on an island. Must be HIS lair… I was on a beach near the water. There was a small channel of water between a larger body of land. Freedom.

I swam across the channel, and started running again. I stopped when I reached civilization. It was what looked to be a park, completely void of life. I sighed, sat at a picnic table, popped off my shoes, and rubbed my sore feet. It appeared to be just before noon by the position of the sun. I held my stomach when it growled loudly. I really need food.

Suddenly, I felt a familiar electric tingle under my skin, signaling something electric was nearby. I quickly shoved on my shoes and jumped up, rubbing my hands together to gather the resting electric charges in my system. Then, I saw them. At least two dozen of HIS clones creeping out of a forest to the east. I raised my hands, and shook my head, scoffing. Why would HE send something I could so easily dispose of?

I stretched my hand towards the advancing clones, and willed an arc of electrical energy to push through my hand. Causing one to freeze in shock, the current strangely did not travel to the next bot, instead, the one simply kept walking as if unaffected. Had HE modified these Robots somehow? A surge suppresser, maybe? Is this why HE let me escape? To try out HIS new bots on me?

Anger surged through me, causing my blood to boil and a greater charge flow to my clenched fists. I tried to shock one again to no avail, but told myself not to panic, as HE would most certainly be watching through one of the clones. Once they reached me, I sprang at one and latched onto its back, sending an incredible voltage through its framework directly. I hopped off as it short-circuited and fell to the ground.

I smiled in satisfaction, but was suddenly grabbed from behind by a remarkable force and slammed into the ground. The breath was knocked from my lungs, and I gasped for air. Now that I knew how to defeat them, I wasn't sure I could do so to each one before they overwhelmed me. Plus, it took an insane amount of energy to generate a high enough change to overload one, let alone twenty.

Just as I finished off the second one, my shoulder was gripped by three pairs of unbelievably strong, metal hands. I was flung through the air, crashing into a swing set and knocking it down.

I blacked out.

R.E.V.I.E.W. Suggestions, thoughts, death threats ALL welcome.
