Author's Note: This is a story I've had niggling at me for a while, particularly after I read a good story by Megaira tittled "Act Your Age" - I do not believe it is finished, but would encourage you all to read it. Its very intriguing and I hope that Megaira would update some time soon.
I have got the plot for this in my head -taps temple- and a couple of chapters written up. I would like to see how this is received before posting the rest. Constructive criticism is appreciated, but I do not wish for flames. Please do not send them. They are pointless and irritate me. Please enjoy!!
Of course, I do not own Teen Titans or any of the additional stuff that goes with it. I am just borrowing them.
SUMMARY: Something went wrong, but no one knows what. Something that turned Beast Boy and Raven into true humans, taking away their powers and abilities. But not only that, it took away their years, and their memories. Now, with Rae and BB as human toddlers, the remaining Titans need to find out what on earth is going on, and set their friends right.
Prologue
"Friends?" Starfire's voice came timidly from the double doors into the main room. Robin and Cyborg looked up from where they were chatting at the table, and over towards where Starfire stood, eyes widening and jaws dropping.
The alien princess stood on the top most step, the doors closed behind her. She was dressed in a pair of casual, low riding jeans with straight legs, her top was a soft baby blue and hugged her figure. Her feet were bare and her hair pulled back in a loose braid. This was normal wear for Starfire, especially if she were planning to visit the "Mall of Shopping" that day. So being said, it was not the young woman's attire that had both Cy and Robin's jaws dropping the ground.
It was the little girl perched casually on her slim hip.
"Ah, Star. Where did you get her?" Cyborg asked slowly, staring at the black haired little girl. Her eyes were a brilliant shade of deep blue, her skin a pale milk colour. Long lashes framed her eyes and a bright smile was fitted onto her round face. The girl's attention flickered to the two titans at the table, but then refocused on something behind Star.
"Um, shouldn't babysitting be a team decision?" Robin asked, looking warily at the child, and then up at Starfire, who flushed and shook her head desperately, shifting the little girl on her hip.
"Raven is going to freak." Cyborg added, pulling a face.
"Friends, please!" Starfire said desperately, her eyes looking worried. "Friend Raven will not be doing the freaking." Starfire sighed sadly, and shifted the girl as if to hand her to Cyborg, though he was across the room. "This is Friend Raven!" Desperation was clear in the Tameranian's voice.
"Say what?!" Cyborg demanded, bounding to his feet and walking quickly towards the two females. "We've seen Raven when she was five – this kid is what? Three – Raven has spunky hair. This kids got black."
"I can see that Friend Cyborg!" Starfire snapped uncharacteristically, causing the half human to pause and blink at her. "The bumgorf was within the bed of Raven's." Starfire flushed deeply. "She has called me her mother." She whispered, frowning. "Something is most wrong!"
"She called her mother?" Robin asked as Cyborg took the little girl from Starfire, and held her up in front of him with his hands under her arm pits. The girl giggled in delight and clapped her hands, blinking owlishly she then bobbed as much as she could within his grasp, and began chanting;
"Unky Zy! Unky Zy!" All three adult titans stared at the little girl, and Cyborg brought her face to face with himself.
"Raven?" He questioned, and received a grumpy look from the little girl.
"No." She said irritably, pouting and crossing her little arms over her chest. "Ravanna"
"Okay, Ravanna, Uncle Cyborg is going to scan you." Cyborg smiled warmly at the girl, after blinking at the name she offered him. He walked over to the couch and placed her lightly upon it, and then began scanning her, the child watching him with a mingled curious and bored expression. A beeping announced the end of the scan, and Cyborg read over the data provided for him, a frown furrowing his human features. Leaving the girl on the seat, he made his way around the couch to look at Starfire (who was still standing on the step) and Robin, who was standing about five feet in front and slightly to one side of her, both watching him anxiously.
"It's defiantly Raven." He muttered, too quietly for the girl to hear, who was standing up on the couch and watching the adults with wide eyes, her belly pressed against the backrest.
"Ravanna, sit down, please." Starfire said softly, watching the little girl as she frowned and then did as instructed. Nodding almost to herself, Star looked back to her fellow adult titans.
"Damn." Robin muttered, frowning. "How?"
"No idea. But she's completely human… No sign of her demon heritage."
"Starfire, go and wake up Beast –" The titans' leader was cut off as Starfire gently tapped him on the shoulder. "Wh-" The question died on his lips as Starfire stepped lightly to one side, revealing a timid looking boy behind her. Like the girl, he was about three years old, his face a creamy colour with a mop of wavy bleached blonde hair. His eyes were huge and a stunning blue colour.
"If Ravanna is Friend Raven, than I believe that Garfield is friend Beast Boy?" The princess asked, her left hand resting lightly on the boy's head, while he clung to her jean clad legs. Cyborg began scanning the little boy, while Robin stared at the child for a moment, looking completely lost, before running both hands through his hair, and stalking off across the room, turning on his heel, and pacing back again.
"What the hell is going on?" He demanded of no one in particular. "Why are two members of our team toddlers?"
"Again, no idea, and again, it's defiantly BB, and again he's completely human. Like his DNA had never been muddled with." Cyborg ran a hand over his head. "We're gunna need to figure this out really quick guys." Looking at Starfire and Robin seriously, Cyborg continued. "They're completely human… If we don't find a way to change them back…" He paused and looked solemnly at the couple. "They're going to grow up… completely human."
A/N: Well, there it is... The start, anyway. Please let me know what you think, and I'll hop along with the next chapter.
