Chapter I Arrival
The entrance to the main lobby opened, Robin and Cyborg entered. The morning sun streamed in through the window, illuminating the room with an orange glow. Robin went to the kitchen to start himself breakfast while Cyborg went to turn off his security system. A key came out of Cyborg's finger and he was aiming for the keyhole when he stopped short. "Uh, Robin?" Robin put down his skillet and walked over to Cyborg. "What is it Cy? "You sure we're the only ones awake?" Robin looked at his watch, "It's seven AM, I'm pretty sure" Cyborg pressed a few buttons and a simulated overlook of the tower was shown. A red dot was blinking on the top of the tower. "Then who's on the roof?" The elevator to the roof opened, Robin and Cyborg quickly began their search followed by Starfire and Raven. Beast Boy, still in his nightclothes, slowly slumped out of the elevator. "Tell me again why I'm up here, I was kinda asleep when ya told me" "The scanners picked up someone on the roof," retorted Cyborg, "we're here to find out who it is" Beast Boy let out a big yawn and slowly began searching, but he didn't have to search for long. Starfire glided behind the elevator shaft and then backed off in surprise. "I believe I have found our intruder" The titans rushed to the scene. Lying there was a young male curled up on his side, his long dark brown trench coat was covering him. "Think one of us should wake him up?" Beast Boy asked, not taking his eyes of the intruder. After a moment, Starfire slowly reached down and shook his shoulder. "Excuse Me," she said. The young man jumped, causing everyone to jump back. The intruder tried to see who awoke him but the sun caught his eyes and he quickly closed them. He stood up slowly and reached in his coat pocket. He whipped out a pair of sunglasses and put them on. He stood about 5'9 and other than his trench coat, he was wearing all loose black clothing. He had short dark brown hair. He wore a necklace that had four small spikes and one large spike in the middle; the spikes lay across his chest. He wore black gloves with the fingertips torn off and rapped around his left hand and wrist was a silver dog chain. "Oh man," the intruder said rubbing the back his head, "I hope this isn't Tijuana again" "No this is Titans Tower" Robin said, not taking his off him. "Titans Tower?" The intruder looked around at everyone, "Oh! The Teen Titans, I've heard about you… How the hell did I get here?" "That's what we want to know" Raven said firmly. "Yes!" Starfire added "who are you and how did you come to a slumber on our home?" "Well, last thing I remember was walking down the streets, it was around midnight when I saw a huge shadow on top of a electronic store. Bored out of my mind I went to investigate. I was only up there for a moment when some huge, massive, hard thing knocked me across the head! I flew all the way across the street on to another building. It took me a while to stand up, my vision was swirling, and I had to get out of there. I started jumping from building to building, didn't know, or care where I was going. Then the next thing I know I'm bein' woken on top of your tower." "You said you jumped from building to building. Right?" Beast Boy said looking at him suspiciously. The intruder nodded his head. "Dude, look at where you are" Beast boy stepped aside and showed him the ocean. The intruder stepped forward and looked all around him. "Whoa, you guys live on an island. Wait, I remember coming to a bridge then seeing a building kind of far away, then… I guessed I jumped" Everyone stood looking at him very oddly. "That's impossible," said Robin, "unless, you're not human? Who are you?" The intruder gave a nervous smile then stepped back a little. "Guess there's no denying it now" he stood up strait, "My name is Ishaeru, Ishy for short, and I am a Reahitheroth" Cyborg tilted his head in confusion. "A Reahithe-what?" "A Reahitheroth" Raven said stepping forward. Ishaeru gave her a surprised look. "I didn't expect anyone to know what that was" "I know a little bit from my readings," said Raven. "Alright then tell me everything you know about Reahitheroths"
