Teen Titans

OOC: Go ahead and take him. I'll post later.

 

Sundra sadly smiled. "I can be me... but I'm not completely free. I'm basically in hiding right now. I wasn't born with these powers. These powers are an experiment. I'm the experiment..." Sundra lifted a hand to look at it quietly. She concentrated while looking at the hand and then it started to glow an organe-yellowish color. She could feel the heat from her hand on her face as she watched her hand warp by the illusion of the heat waves. Sundra then clutched her hand and the heat instantly disappeared. "I'm surprised that I'm still alive," she whispered to herself.

 

She's just like me...Dante thought. "I'm the same way!" He was starting to get excited. "Well, almost...my powers aren't really an experiment....more like..." he struggled to find the right word, "a game I guess? But I don't know when it starts...or even if it already has." He started thinking about the mysterious Demon who gave him his powers. "Wait a second! Your power...what was that you just did with your hand?" He asked, anxiously.

 

"Oh... this?" Sundra brought the heat back to her hand. This time she kept it out for Dante to see. "My body can absorb sun energy, and condense it to a temperature which I can withstand." She slightly smiled. "So basically, I'm a vessel for the sun energy, and then I can use that energy to... well... fight I guess." Her eyes sparkled when she looked at Dante. Finally, she found someone like her. "So you weren't born with your powers either then?"

 

"That's amazing," Dante whispered. "Oh? Um..not really. It's a long story," He didn't want to tell the poor girl about his history with an actual demon. "Let's just say someone gave them to me...tell me," he raised his hand from beneath his cloak and grabbed hers. "What do you feel?" He asked, still anxious and now nervous.

 

Sundra stood there for a moment, wondering what Dante meant. Then she felt something. She could feel his hand was warm, but that was about it. "It's just warm, why do you ask?" Sundra studied Dante's hood for a moment, trying to figure him out. She then looked back down at his hand again. It's different from a human's... but technically he's still a human...

 

"Just warm?" Dante was so ecstatic, he grabbed her in a bear hug. "You have no idea how happy that makes me!" His emotions shot up so much that he started giving off more heat, but he didn't say anything, he waited to see if Sundra would notice.

 

Sundra gasped in surprise when Dante suddenly hugged her. She blinked and then laughed nervously. "I'm glad you're happy." She smiled a bit and felt Dante rise in temperature, but it didn't bug her. "So... normal humans can't stand the heat... Right?" Sundra almost regretted saying that. It was a slip of the tongue.

 

Dante jumped back, letting her go when he realized he had grabbed her all of a sudden. "Sorry about that!" He said. He could have been blushing, but even he didn't know if he was. Another side effect of having your body permanently giving off heat. "And you're right, people can't get near me," he had stopped referring to people as "normal people." In his mind, there were three groups: people, superpowered people, and demons. He was the latter. "Normally, I"d just make them sweat, but sometimes I can get out of control and just touching someone will leave a bad burn, that's why," he stretched his cloak, modeling it, "it's fireproof. Keeps heat from getting out."

 

Sundra cleared her throat as Dante let go of her. "That's pretty niffty..." She smiled quietly. Unlike him, Sundra could control the heat. At least that's what she knew. "So that's why signing up for a job would be a bad idea, right?" She was already caculating their options. She was hungry, nearly starving. Her stomach stopped growling a while ago, but the emptyness in her stomach was still there. So what other options did they had?

 

"Nifty? I don't think so," Dante replied sternly. Nifty was the fact that he could breathe fire and teleport. Burning people on touch was not nifty at all. "But you have no idea how glad it feels to be able to just stand by someone!" He knew he was grinning now. He hadn't even felt a touch of human skin in ages. It made him feel good. As for the other subject, "You can still get a job. I mean, I could make pizza myself...that might convince them to hire me," he joked. "But I just don't think I want a job, to be honest. I was just going to ask the Titans to give a fellow hero some food."

 

"Titans?" Sundra's mind drew a blank when Dante said that. How much had she missed since her uncle took her out of the world and into the world of science? "Who are the Titans? Are they like an ice hockey team?" Sundra pulled a face while she tried to piece together what she just heard... Why would they ask a hockey team for food? Aside to the fact that she was confused on what Dante was talking about, she felt a sense of completeness. Here, after a long time, she finally found a friend. Dante didn't scare her one bit.

 

"You don't know who the Titans are?" Dante asked, puzzled. That's like having no idea who Superman was. "The Teen Titans are a group of heroes. They live here. You saw them earlier, they were the ones who almost ran you over!" He laughed. Sundra sure was out of the loop, but that was alright. She was still a good addition to his life. He could finally be near someone without worrying about scaring them or burning them..

 

"Ooooh..." Sundra blushed, feeling very stupid. She chuckled nervously and rubbed the back of her neck. "Heh, heh, silly me." Sundra then let her hand drop to the side and smiled slightly. Boy I missed out a lot on life... She breathed out a quick puff of air. "So... do you think the Teen Titans would give us some food?" Begging for food was the last thing she wanted to do... But if she wanted food now, it'll have to do.

 

Dante couldn't help but laugh. "It's alright," he managed to say before catching his breath, "Well, they're heroes. We're hungry. They should save us, right?" He asked. "Besides, if not, I can convince them." He smiled, although the hood still hid his face. "But like I said, you can still get a job here if you want. No need to worry about me." Dante didn't want to be the reason the girl starved.

 

Sundra shook her head. "No, I changed my mind. I think I would get fired for snitching pieces of pizza in the first five minutes." She smiled and straightened in place. "So! Where do we find these Teen Titans at? You seem to know them very well." Her stomach growled at her again, and she looked down at it. "Meh..."

 

OOC: Will wait for Garx. I don't think I can do Robin so well.

BIC:
Dante chuckled. "I don't know them personally, I doubt they have even heard of me," He turned his head and raised a hand to point. "Their headquarters are that way. Trust me," he looked back at his new companion, "we can't miss it."

 

OOC: You guys are boring, go kill something ffs xD

His systems flashing red to detect a weapon pointed at him, Flint looked over at Cyborg. "Whoa!!" he stopped his running and skid to a halt, raising his hands up. "I'm a good guy, easy ..I was TRYING to get the guy your letting escape!"

"Why do we need to chase him?We got what we wanted!" Beast Boy raised the chip up to the robotic man's face and grinned widely."If he didn't, he would've been toast!" he folded his arms and nodded, as if he was wise in saying that.

"How do you know it isn't fake?"

"Huh?.."

"They go through all the trouble of stealing it, and you really think they'd drop it on accident when they can FLY AWAY?"

"...." a comical sweatdrop slid down Beastboy's head, and he lowered his head in defeat, examining the chip. "Uh...Cy?" he looked at him, wondering what he thought.This random stranger made it completely obvious that it could be a trick.

 

Cyborg kept an eye on the suited stranger, but he reverted his cannon back to an arm. "Let me see it, BB," he said, grabbing the chip from Beast Boy's hand. He held it to his eye. It looked real, but his sensor didn't recognize it. He turned his hand over and a small lid flipped open on his wrist. He inserted the chip. A beep and a boop later, his systems told him the other robot was right. "He's right, it's a fake," he said as he took the chip out and crushed it between his thumb and forefinger. "I guess we should thank you then, man!" Cyborg exclaimed, a big grin appearing on his face.

 

OOC: Question!! So... Slade was going to awaken Terra first, am I right? My brain is all out of sorts.
