I think I'm nuts. But I love Teen Titans, and now that the summer has begun again I've gotten crazy enough to try a new story. Hope you guys like it cause I could honestly say it's the first time I've tried to make a well plotted story. Easily, it is my first superhero story, which is tough enough as it is. Well...let's begin shall we?

Jump City, a place well known. A place where the Teen Titans make their home. To be completely correct, the Teen Titans made their home here and now make it again. A new group of Teen Titans, one led by a former team member. Sometime after the end of the Brotherhood of Evil incident, it was decided that perhaps disbanding was an idea that would come up after each of the Titans had reached an age older than teenagers. Nightwing, the team's leader, made the call.

Although it was a harsh decision for each of the Titan's to follow, the reasons for it were understood. Each titan, needed to go and make a name for themselves as a hero. The times were now showing that the best way to defend the earth, and make a living out of it, was to join the Justice League, but it was no small feat. Still, many of the Titans filled out these requirements to join up.

Nightwing: Secret Identity known as Dick Grayson-Once known as Robin, the first to ever fight alongside Batman. He is also known as the foster son, and heir to Bruce Wayne and Wayne Industries. He became a leading figure in the Justice League. He was the first to be accepted and quickly learned the ropes, joining and fighting alongside each of the superheros, and now alongside Batman as an equal. His tenacity and skill made him an able leader, and the friendships he made taught him how to socialize and consider his teammates more than just subordinates.

Starfire: Translated name sourced from Kori'ander- an Alien from another planet, she came to Earth fleeing from a warring race. The Teen Titans aided her in her time of need, and she decided to stay. She has tried to learn many of the Earth's slangs and phrases, however no one's perfect. Became a part of the Justice League shortly after a visit to her home. Tamarean had become a wealthy planet, rebuilt after many long struggles against warring planets and races. Happy that her planet would do well, and after receiving confirmation of her decision, she joined the Justice League as a superhero and as an Ambassador for Tamarean. Her exploits as a superhero are significantly less considering her ambassadorial position, but her changes as a leader still affect the world today, for the better of course.

Cyborg: Secret Identity known as Victor Stone-As a boy, his mother caused an accident that affected his body. His mother died, but his father worked his hardest to save him and turned him into a half human and half machine creation. For years, Cyborg was unable to come to terms with his 'loss' of humanity. But he learned better when he joined the Titans and fought alongside them. He later joined an organization known to the world The Scientific and Technologically Advanced Laboratories (S.T.A.R. Labs). His work benefitted not only him but other people with prosthetic limbs. Although he hoped to never have to change someone who went through the same experience that he did, he is happy to be able to bring back near full capabilities with a prosthetic limb. His superhero exploits are also low, but he whenever his friends ask for his help, he is always willing.

Raven Roth: Fake Identity known as Rachel Roth-She was the son of a Demon known as Trigon, and a human woman. She was born Azarath, a place in another dimension entirely. Her Dark powers were difficult to comprehend and control, forcing her to become emotionless but she overcame that with her time among the Teen Titans. After the separation of the Teen Titans, she became a mystery for some time. She disappeared from the radar of her friends, although Nightwing suggested that perhaps she returned to her home in another dimension. When she returned, she greeted each of her friends in the Justice League after joining with them. She decided that she would not live there, but rather, be on call as she tried to live a normal life in the world below.

Beast Boy: Identity known as Garfield Logan-Son of two scientists in Africa, and a victim of a disease known as Sakutia. Garfield was the first to ever survive the disease, and was in turn affected to become a boy who could transform into other animals. His time with the Doom Patrol was short, but his time with the Teen Titans was truly something that he was proud to remember and learn from. After they separated, however, his invitation to the Justice League was rejected. The reason for this was…well…

"Titans Go!"

A yell cried out from a crowd of shrieking and fleeing people. From the crowd, a green skinned man in a white and purple uniform pointed out with a confident grin on his face, with overly elongated and sharpened canine teeth.

The one he stared back at was a large man with dark skin, and several pieces of weaponry covering his body, almost attacked to his skin. He had two rocket launchers over his back, a targeting and scanning eyepiece over one of his eyes, and several pieces of high-tech automatic rifles in his hands.

He stood over a pile of rubble, one that had come from the hole that was apparent on the side of a building. He gave a toothy grin under his mustache, aiming the two rocket launchers down towards Garfield. Before he got that chance, a shadow jumped through the pile of rubble. Suddenly, the large man felt the rubble go under, and he lost his balance as the rubble pulled him under. On the other side of the pile of the rubble, stood a girl covered in Ninja attire, all black with a scarf covering the lower half of her face, and her hair tied up.

"Shuri' look out!" Someone yelled as her side of the rubble suddenly exploded, sending her and several bricks and dust down the road a few feet. Her eyes were closed shot, preparing for the pain she would feel against the ground, but a soft cushiony feeling was what she received.

She opened her eyes, surprised to see that she was lying down on a light. It felt warm and soft to the touch, almost like a fluffy pillow. Shuri' slid off and landed on her feet easily, looking up to another girl with skin glowing enough to hide her specific features enough to hide her identity. She had large pale golden wings, bright white clothing and shiny golden hair.

Shuri' gave a light nod from her head, "Angel..." she whispered before running towards the remaining pile of rubble. As she stepped on the shadow of the building, she disappeared. Her body sank into the shadow in almost an instant.

Angel flapped her wings and floated over to the pile of rubble as another explosion came from within. Bricks and rubble impacted harmlessly against an invisible spherical shield. She gave a grim face as she placed her hands together, before thrusting them out forward, sending beams of light into the rubble, piercing through.

It was silent for a few moments, the beams pulling back and disappearing into her body. "I thought we weren't allowed to kill?" said a voice from a few feet away. It was a teenage boy, wearing khaki shorts, a solid red t-shirt, and a black bandana over his face with two slits for eyes.

"Didn't someone tell you to get a real costume?" said a voice masked by a voice scrambler. Muffled rockets were heard as a figure covered in technological suit, smoothed over and rounding around the different joints. The helmet fitted the head, adding a bit of size, but gave no facial features. The front was made of a glass material, dark and tinted to the point where no one could see within, the owner could see through. "It's been a month Void Walker..."

The teenager, Void Walker, turned over towards the teenager in red armor, flying slightly above and out of his reach. "Hey Comet! Mind your own business!" He said raising his fist and shaking it fervently. Another explosion sounded at that moment, and Void turned towards it with a look of surprise, before he reached out to his side, eyes glowing slightly, as his hand disappeared into thin air. He pulled it out, bringing out a police tower shield, holding it in front of him. Several pieces of brick impacted strongly against him, denting and cracking against the thick plastic. "I should have gotten one from Brazil..."

From the pile of rubble, the man walked out. He was covered in scratches, as were his weaponry. But there were no dents, and the grin on his face was still there as he aimed one of the rocket launchers down towards Void, and sent out a mini-rocket. Void's eyes widened, but before he could move, a red beam fired down, cutting through the rocket and exploding it quickly.

"That's another one you owe me Voi'."

"It's Void, with a D!"

"We're not actors, we're superheroes!" Comet shouted through the voice scrambler, before aiming an arm towards the man with the guns, a small slot opening on the top of the arm, pulling out a small rocket and then launching it towards his target. The shot and spiraled towards him while he fired an automatic rifle. A bullet impacted against the rocket, blowing it up mid-air, while several others impacted against Comet. Several bullet-holes and scratches appeared, but they were ignored as he fired another rocket.

The man jumped away, firing several rockets and bullets up at the armored hero. The bullets impacting forced his body to move as the chest opened up to show a glowing glass orb. "Not cool." He said calmly as the orb shined brightly and a powerful beam suddenly shot out, 

destroying the rockets and forcing the bullets to stop at such a speed that it crushed itself. He missed his target, but the beam hit the road, forcing the entirety of what was under the beam to create a crater that went down three meters after two seconds of being under the beam.

"Aha! A very powerful weapon. Truly, you and I are similar no?" Said the man suddenly, the grin still on his face and his eyes twinkling at the sight of the weapon as the chest piece covered it again.

"You don't want to get hit by my Gravity Beam. Now then Cannon, are you ready to give up?"

His grin widened greatly before aiming two arms covered by gauntlets. From it, two hooks suddenly shot out, with wires attached to them. Comet saw the two hooks spin around and attach themselves to one of his arms, and another one to his leg. He looked over himself before he was suddenly pulled down, forcing him to increase the boost on his thrusters, and trying to pull away from Cannon's grip.

Cannon continued to pull down, looking up as a shadow suddenly pulled out of the ground and transform into Shuri's form. "The Shuriken can never go through my armor!" He shouted as he twirled into a tornado kick, impacting into her waist and sending her skidding across the ground.

"You are not the Teen Titans that the world knows! You are weak, untrained! The other Teen Titans of today are more famous than you could ever be!" He gave a grin as he pulled on the wires, sending Comet straight into Angel, and letting the two flail into a building. Cannon then turned his sight towards Void, the same grin that had been there since the beginning was still there.

Void gave a gulp before his eyes glowed and he reached back, pulling out a rocket launcher. He set it over his shoulder and fired, with a yell. The rocket headed towards Cannon, who simply hit it on its side, sending it into the rubble where it exploded harmlessly. "Good try! Now! My turn!" The two rockets over his shoulders aimed down, towards the blonde hero.

Two rockets were launched, and then two gunshots were heard. The rockets exploded suddenly, sending Cannon sliding back from the explosions. Cannon grit his teeth as he turned towards the source of the gun shots. On top of a toppled car stood a young man with tan skin and black hair. In his hand was a single pistol, still smoking from being recently fired twice. He wore a trench coat and an emotionless expression upon his lips.

His eyes, however, were determined and his gun was still aimed towards Cannon. "Again with you! My favorite fantasy titan. Have you ever thought about how little people really care about you? You haven't even met the real Teen Titans."

"Cannon..." The boy said with a whisper, reaching into his trench coat with his free hand.

"Yes boy? Or should I call you Duel as you wish?" Cannon grinned greatly as he pulled out his many weapons. Two mini-rocket launchers on each leg, the two on his shoulders, and a large Gatling gun that he put together from the automatic rifles. He held it, and aimed it towards Duel.

"We already have a real Titan on our team." He said as he pulled out another pistol, aiming it down towards Cannon. A slight twitch appeared at the corner of his mouth as he looked behind Cannon briefly. "Good night."

Before Cannon had a chance to pull the trigger, he felt a sudden and giant impact send him into the wall of one of the buildings. It was a tail, a giant green tail, significantly larger than Cannon. As he dropped away from the crater on the side of the building, he got a good look as a green T-Rex transformed down to the size of a young man, with green skin and tooth jutting out from his lower lip and pressed against his upper one. He then blacked out.

After that, the cops arrived and quickly cuffed the armed man, taking off each of his weaponry, with some difficulty. During that, Garfield stood in front of each of the other superheroes, looking over each of them and their wounds. "Ok, so it's not one of our better days..."

Duel raised an eyebrow slightly as he waited on Comet to fix his boot. He was leaning on Duel's shoulder in order to keep balance as he repaired it. Comet easily had the most damage on him, with bullet holes and scratch marks. However, nothing seemed to show that he had taken actual damage to his body. Angel was rubbing her face slightly, probably from when Comet had been slammed into her, and Shuriken was trying to ignore the painful bruise that would appear on her waist soon. Void was looking over the hand he had used to hold the riot shield, it hurt a little bit.

"All right, here is what the main problem was." Garfield started, before being interrupted by Duel's voice.

"Can we do this back at the tower? My shoulders starting to get numb."

Comet looked over at Duel from where he was standing, "What does that mean?"

"It means your heavy."

Garfield shook his head as he looked over the rest of them. "Anyhow! Teamwork is what you're missing. You were all able to work around each other, but you never worked together! Angel was the only one who honestly had someone's back during the entire battle."

Angel pressed her fingers together in embarrassment at being praised, if only a little bit. Garfield then turned towards Void, looking over at the police shield on the ground. "Where did you get that by the way?"

Void turned towards the shield, his hand still stinging slightly before his eyes widened. He quickly ran over to it and had it disappear along with his arm, before pulling it back. "Ha, problem solved."

"Wanna bet? Remember that rocket launcher...?" Shuriken said, bringing Void over as he rolled his eyes.

The Titans Tower became a kind of home for the five teenage superheroes, all of them trying to learn how to be true heroes. And their leader, and teacher, was none other than Beast Boy, preferably called Garfield Logan.

There was no declaration, or press conference. It was merely Garfield calling in a favor, after he found a team. It was likely that after a month of action and crime fighting, that news of them had spread.

Still, he had not received a message from his teammates. But, whether that was good news or bad was unknown to him. He definitely did this over the heads of the rest of the group, but these five teenagers were never sidekicks either.

He sat down at the table where they usually had breakfast, and it was lunchtime. The team had been forced to move out before they could eat, and Garfield decided to remedy the situation after the battle had been finished. He had already finished his vegan breakfast, and merely read the paper, looking over each new Titan.

Shuriken's scarf was pulled down, as she ate a breakfast consisting of fried rice with eggs and other goodies. Her skills with chopsticks proved she never thought about it, much like an American would be used to a fork and knife. A ninja well-trained and imbued with a power that supported her training exponentially. Capable of traveling and hiding in the shadow itself, and armed well in hand-to-hand as well as a few throwing knives, and explosives.

Garfield's eyes moved over to Void as he bit into an egg sandwich, a gleeful smile on his face. Sandwiches were the only thing he ate, Garfield did not really understand why but at the same time, he was a vegetarian, so he was the same in a way. Void's mask had been taken off, although his mask never actually hid anything too well.

Comet stood still with arms crossed in front of the table. He never ate, and Garfield never asked why. He guessed that perhaps he was not human at all, but Comet did things from time to time that seemed to change his idea. Every now and then, he would see him place a cartridge of some sort into the arm.

Duel was next calmly eating through his cereal. He enjoyed cold food over warm, although he would not mind a little variety. He never wore a mask of any kind, although he never gave anyone his real name either. He noticed that he and Comet would get into scuffles from time to time, while he and Void usually got along quite well. Garfield guessed it would have to do with the level of trust between identities of each other. He shook his head, he was probably thinking too hard.

Angel was the only Titan that was not there. There was a room and a seat that was ready for her, but she never actually stayed. Garfield guessed that she probably had a family along with her secret identity, a rare hero indeed. He never complained however, and never asked her for any 

details. Her life was her own, but he did suggest that she try and stay over for the weekends, she still had not given him an answer though.

Garfield sat back. He had forgotten how little he knew about the Teen Titans when he first joined. He took it for granted, how he could learn to trust each of his teammates, to the point where they knew each other by their real names. Now, he had to start again. And this time, he was the leader.

"Lead?"

He looked up from the paper, noticing that everyone was finished with their food, if they had any. They were all looking over at him; Duel had been the one to speak to him. He was the only one who called him Lead, as if this were a squadron. "You don't actually need me to excuse you for you to leave the table."

Duel rolled his eyes slightly, while everyone else stood up taking their plates and utensils, dropping them into the sink. Duel remained, while Garfield looked over at him, returning the look of 'why am I still waiting.' "Go now please." Garfield said, receiving a response from Duel as he stood up and placed his plate in the sink.

He stayed on his newspaper, before folding it and tossing it down the chute for trash. He looked on as the team went about their daily lives. Training, relaxing, or reading. Garfield gave his arms a stretch as he walked over to the training room. Duel had of course beaten him to it, and was already going through a workout with his twin bokugen, Japanese wooden swords. He followed through with strikes, feints and bounced the stick off of the punching bag skillfully. His imaginary enemy, forced him to duck and roll under, bringing both of his swords up in a powerful slash that pushed the bag up, before it fell and began to swing ungracefully.

Garfield gave a toothy grin before he transformed into a wolf suddenly, eyeing the boy as he continued to train diligently. He stepped onto the mat silently, stalking on padded feet before narrowing his eyes. He jumped forward, teeth bared for a strike.

His teeth chomped onto something hard, but not indestructible, one of the wooden swords. Duel kept his sword up with a serious expression on his face, forcing Garfield to stand on his two legs. He transformed into a tiger suddenly, suddenly gaining size and weight and forcing Duel to roll away with wide eyes.

He swung a paw with his claws out, and Duel jumped out of the way. He said nothing, twirling his two swords around, his left hand keeping on in front of him in defense, with the other behind him, ready to lunge out in a strike.

Garfield made the first move, running low and jumping forward with a powerful strike. Duel jumped back again, twirling both his weapons before he brought them down quickly onto Garfield's shoulder blades. He felt pain that much was obvious. But the debilitating strike that Duel meant for did not work out as he planned. Duel came to this realization as he slid across the mat with his air knocked out, courtesy of a ram suddenly head-butting into his gut.

Garfield transformed into his human form, giving a few nods as he walked over to him. "Getting better already Duel, and it's only been a month. You're learning."

Duel gave no response as he continued to try and breathe in, after a moment he felt air go into his lungs, and he coughed out immediately after. He looked up at Garfield, a smirk on his face, "It's...not all I've learned..." His eyes looked past Garfield's leg.

The green hero turned around in time to see a red armored fist attached to Comet, come at him at full speed. He dodged, barely, bringing his arm over and grabbing on tightly, before pulling Comet over his shoulder and landing him unceremoniously over Duel's back. He laughed after he was sure the two were done for the moment, "Work on your technique, we'll see what the future may hold."

With that, he left, leaving the two heroes to groan and push away from each other as they tried to get back up. The common room had Void Walker reading a book, flipping through page silently. His eyes read through the words lazily, but Garfield had no doubt that he was reading; it reminded him of Raven.

Shuriken, meanwhile, was sitting down in front of a turned off television. Nothing to do and nothing that would come to mind. He took a seat in front of her, pulling out an old Gamestation and grinning as he popped it open, looking through the racing game he played with Cyborg many times before.

"How many video games have you played Shuri'?" He said as he turned on the Television and the Gamestation.

"None Sir Logan, my sensei...probably did not believe in such games..."

"Gar's fine Shuri', I'd like to have some of you keeping this to be a team and not a military squadron."

"Duel merely wishes...to keep things efficient."

"An efficient team is a close one, and I learned that when I was your age..." Garfield picked up a controller, tossing a controller back to Shuri' who caught it without even blinking. "Now, I'm sure you'll get used to it as we play, it's not that hard anyways!"

He grinned as he picked his character, and watched Shuri' pick a character and racer for herself. As the race began, he did not notice how focused Void was in his book. Nor did he pay attention to the fact that Duel and Comet had gotten up and were now training against each other, loudly and with damage that would probably need replacing on some levels.

He focused on how lucky he was. There was a new team, it was what he wanted. It had been his goal, after the first team disbanded. Garfield could not simply join the Justice League and leave the Tower empty and alone...

He wanted the city to stay protected. But more importantly, he wanted the next generation to be ready...

So, I've got a problem. I need some help in order to make enemies. Villains are tough to make up, and powers are just as tough. I would like some help in thinking up powers, while characters I can make up myself. Ideas are good, but no offense to the fact that I'm the one writing the story. So yeah, please help?

Besides that, a nice review helps. I take some criticism, considering my first one. Please don't flame, it's kind of immature. Good night and thanks for reading.
