Rachel Roth, Raven
It's been a few days since she came to this loud place that was Jump City, its people oblivious to the grandeur things in life, but Raven supposed that was for the best.
Taking one last glance at her home, of Azarath and its people, she donned her hood over her head and left through the means of her powers. Not forsaking her home, nor was she casting herself away from the people and mother that raised her, but to keep Azarath safe from Trigon.
She had little to no funds for herself, temporary jobs ranging from helping a few movers to finding a temp job at a tea store. Right now, it was the weekend, leaving her to do something with her time alone, preferably find a few books at the library to read that piqued her interests.
Stepping out from the aforementioned tea store after getting herself some morning tea, Raven stepped towards the nearby alley and willed a black portal into existence and walked into it, allowing her to step out into another alleyway that was closer to the library.
Of course, she gain a few glances from passerby's that did see her, but seemingly paid her no mind, which made Raven question how often these people were acquainted with magic…that, or the populous were so used to the abnormal, the abnormal was beginning to be the normal to the populace of Jump City.
Thinking back when she arrived to this city, while she walked along the sidewalk, Raven had sensed a distinct feeling of chaotic chakra, all compressed into one focal point; it moved of course, but the odd thing of it was, the chaotic creature or whatever that was holding in all that chaotic energy, wasn't letting it loose on the city.
That in of itself was very unsettling, and chaotic chakra itself wasn't something you should or can contain, it was something that needed an outlet, or else it ran the risk of corrupting the holder of that chaotic chakra.
Raven frowned as she stepped to the front of the library, feeling out to sense that the chaotic focal point was now inside the library; the chaotic chakra didn't bother her, but it galled her that the person holding all that chaos was just living a normal life. How the person was able to survive holding in all that energy, was beyond Raven.
But knowing what she has learned about this planet, whoever was holding in all that power was most likely a foreign alien to this planet; afterall, you had the likes of Superman and the Martian Manhunter, so who's to say the person in the library was not some visiting alien or hero, under disguise as some human?
She was wrong, apparently, that it was a person, as she had just seen the pink alien looking creature enter one of the private rooms the library offered, right as she reached the third floor to look for a book for herself; Raven wasn't actively looking for the creature, but she did want some answers.
She herself was holding back her emotions and powers to keep her Demon Father at bay for the fateful day of her Sixteenth Birthday. This pink creature however was holding back unfathomable amounts, it was like a bottomless ocean.
Shaking her head, her curiosity was overshadowing her reason for being at the library, to calm her mind with some reading, and study up on Earth's own history. So much was different, but she was raised by humans nonetheless, but the cultures were vastly different.
People here were different from all walks of life, in contrast to the people of Azarath; people on Earth ranged from peaceful to violent, and many in between. While Raven stepped into one of the aisle sections, she peered at the titles of each book, skimming along each title.
Finding on in particular that caught her eyes, Raven reached up and pulled it down for her to flip through and partially read through to see if it had what she was looking for to read; frowning a bit to herself, Raven shoved it back up to its shelf before taking a different one down to skim through its contents.
From what Raven has been able to perceive of Earth's people, most didn't delve into magic, and most mentions of magic were mostly directed to the art of illusions and slight of hand tricks; but when you looked around for actual magic users, you had heroes such as Zatanna that were the forefront of magic users as examples.
Glancing up in pause from the book she was skimming through, she had just heard a light shout of 'Buu needs speak right!" From the private room that Pink Alien walked into with a borrowed laptop under his arm.
Raven raised an eyebrow, he definitely must be one of Earth's visiting aliens or something, if he was trying to learn proper english. She shrugged to herself, before she looked back down at her retrieved book. The book in particular addressed the Earth's mythology and pantheon of gods, before she closed it back up to shelve it back on the shelf.
Reaching for a different book on the shelf below it, she took the book off from its shelf and skimmed through a few pages, finding a few good chapters in it, before closing it back up to take with her to read at a table. Stepping out from the aisle, the pink alien was leaving as well too from the room he was in, making headway for the exit past her.
Frowning to herself while she was still within the book aisle, it was now or never to ask a question or too from the little pink guy, so that she could get on with her day. "Excuse me." she spoke up, a calm but dry tone to reflect her passive dismissive but curiosity in acquiring the alien's attention.
The pink Alien, from what she could understand that spoke probably in third person, Buu, brought his attention to her, and expressed some surprise in his eyes while angling his head up to give her a direct look; he then schooled his features before asking her "hmm? Need something from Buu?" he asked her.
Well, at least the little pink guy was amicable enough, so that meant the chaotic energy within him wasn't adversely affecting him too much or not at all, but that did seem a bit suspicious as well. Something had to give within the little pink guy's psyche, before all that chaotic chakra exploded in some form.
Raven frowned as she gauged the pink alien once more, before speaking again to him, "Not really…" she answered, this was more awkward than she realized, confronting the person that made her do a double take when she entered this city. "...sorry...just checking if I was right about something." she followed up with next, shaking her head at herself.
'Buu'. shifted the weight of the borrowed laptop under his arm, before speaking back to her with a raised brow, "Right about what, Goth girl?" he probed back, giving Raven a narrowed look in the eyes.
Raven let out a grunt, before she glanced off to the side in thought; Did she really look that way to everyone? A goth girl?...
…Okay, maybe she was pulling off the look more than she cared to admit, but she wasn't doing this all on purpose to copy a lifestyle and look…
"mmh...Sorry, my curiosity was just getting the better of me." Raven shrugged at 'Buu', this conversation was now feeling full on awkward to her, she didn't like to talk much, and the direction of this conversation she was having with the pink alien was steering towards the unknown for her.
'Buu' narrowed his eyes up at her, before speaking back, "What was goth girl curious about?" he requested.
Raven of course glanced once more off to the side in thought, before bringing her attention back to the pink alien, "Just forget about it." she answered, before taking her leave, striking up a conversation with that 'Buu' guy, was already awkward in her head, letting her curiosity get the better of her was the wrong decision.
"Goth Girl." 'Buu' spoke again to Raven, as she left the library from out of its front door, making her sigh to herself, before giving the pink alien her attention once more, she should have just minded her own business.
Raven turned to give 'Buu' a sideways look from under her hood, "Look, I'm sorry, I was just curious about something, just plain forget it!" she griped, her tone getting a bit grouchy before she reigned in her emotions.
'Buu' stepped down the steps, before he finally approached her with a glare, "Rude Goth Girl struck up conversation with Buu, finish it better than that!" he demanded of her, making her wince on the inside.
Both stood in silence for a moment, before Raven finally relented with an annoyed grunt, "…I was curious about that chaotic chakra you have…" she narrowed her eyes at 'Buu' "I felt it since I entered this town a few days ago…how are you still sane?" she finally asked.
Majin Buu
Uncertain what Raven meant by what she asked of me, I looked up at her with a confused look on my face, and scratched up at my cheek, "...oh…uh, Buu's not sure." I really am not sure, at all what Raven was meaning, I frowned a bit, before speaking again, "What does Goth Girl mean?" I asked.
Fully turning herself around to look down directly at me, while keeping her borrowed book under her arm, she answered me "...I…I'm not sure, but whatever amount of chaotic chakra you have within yourself, you should probably learn how to release that energy. It can't be good for your body to hold it all in." she warned with a narrowed look.
hm…I have been feeling more and more antsy the longer I've been alive in this body, she wasn't wrong in the fact that something chaotic was within me, Kid Buu's whole nature was being chaotic and unpredictable.
I lifted my arm up, and willed my energy up into my hand to form a very small ball of pink energy, pouring just enough to not cause unfathomable damage to anything it touched if I let it loose, "What, does Goth Girl mean something like this?" I questioned, hoping all I had to do was expel energy.
Raven looked a bit surprised judging by the minute lifting of her eyebrows, before she schooled her features before finally answering me, "...hm…perhaps…" she answered, before shaking her and turning around to leave, "Whatever the case may be, you need to address that chaotic chakra of yours, before it takes hold of your psyche." she warned me again with a dry tone, before leaving through a black portal.
Once the portal closed on Raven, I looked at the orb of power I held in the palm of my hand. I wonder if I can make my own fireworks with this as well? I really need to explore more of this power of mine, besides focusing on the mundane stuff, but I was worried more that…oh fuck it!
Looking over at the nearby statue in place within the middle of the parking lot, of what looked like a settler with his foot over a deer, I threw the ball of energy to see the damage it would do on the very low end.
The moment the pink ball of energy smacked into the statue, the entire thing exploded into stone chunks, with some flying off to hit the nearby cars, causing some to make their alarms go off.
Some people in the distance backed away in fear, while some gave me odd looks, "Dude!" One person ran up to me, giving me a glare, "That was my car!" He yelled out, and stood in front of me.
Giving the guy a glare back, I willed magic into my antenna, and fired it off to repair everything, making all the damage I did to cease from existing, as if I never caused any property damage at all; the guy himself dropped his mouth in shock, as he saw his car all repaired back to its pristine form…
…as in, it was once a beater car that was beyond its mileage, but now it looked like it just left the car factory, "...dude…" The guy remarked, and deftly walked over to his 'new' car, while I walked off to mind my own business.
"What the heck, man, even the meter is on zero!"
I ignored that, and flew off into the air. I made sure to repair everything to its pristine state, since I was repairing the statue as well; but apparently I went too far…oh well, at least the people can't complain that I fixed the statue.
Besides the weird first time I got to meet Raven in person, she seemed on point from what I remember her as; a bit stoic, while informative when asked about things she might know about.
That aside, I needed to find myself a place to practice my abilities at. Sure, I could practice anywhere and just repair things with magic, but I do like the idea of minding my own business in the woods or somewhere to stress test my ki and my magic abilities.
Robin, Richard John "Dick" Grayson
Revving the gas a bit on his handle bar of his bike to accelerate its speed a little, Robin drove his custom built motorcycle along the highway that led into Jump City; it was now time he struck off on his own, to walk out from the shadow of his mentor and find his own place to protect the innocent from the evil and unjust.
Standing beside his motorcycle, Robin turned and took his helmet off to once more look at the city of Gotham, allowing him to peer through his domino mask and take in the sight of Gotham once more underneath the night sky. Police sirens still went off every now and then, as Robin cast his gaze at Gotham. The city of crime that his mentor has been spending most of his adult life trying to clean up.
Before long, the Bat symbol was cast into the clouds of the city, making Robin know Commissioner Gordon was hailing Batman for help, probably some big name villain was doing his rounds again on Gotham. Robin narrowed his eyes, before placing his helmet back on, and climbed back onto his motorcycle.
Since it was still on but in neutral, Robin shifted the gear in it, before he revved the engine in the motorcycle once more, before he drove off to finally leave the City behind him.
Gone unnoticed by Robin far off into the city, was a caped figure atop one of the skyscrapers; the Dark Knight of Gotham peered through a gadget of his, watching his protege leave into the horizon, before lowering it to pocket the gadget back into his utility belt.
The man turned and left, having seen his student off once more. Robin would be fine, he had seen to that, that the Young Greyson knew how to fight the toughest of villains and foes.
Jump City was closer now, as Robin drove his motorcycle along the highway, and through an underpass that led into the city; traffic started to get heavy now, making Robin slow down a bit and obey the speed limit. He could speed up if he was going after a criminal, but right now, he needs to observe the traffic laws and get in touch with the local police enforcement.
Gone were the days from his mentor's time, of when the law didn't like to work with caped heroes, but as days went, many cities were now fine with vigilante justice, so long as the heroes observed the law and stayed true to bringing justice to their cities.
For Robin, since he was going to be a new resident of Jump City, and its new caped hero, he needed to get acquainted with the local commissioner and many other trivialities.
He has of course made sure to do his research of this city, to check if it already had a hero or two in it or not; the city itself was big, allowing at least a team worth of heroes to work in as separate or together depending on the crime situations across the city. The best Robin was able to bring up was a few accounts of one 'Buu' that had been woken up from an orb within the city's Star Lab.
Records showed he has not really been a full on hero to the city, having just been in the general area of the crimes he's settled, so most likely that Buu person hadn't yet figured out if he wanted to commit to being a full on hero yet.
That was fine, he would get in contact with the guy if he could; A scientist by the name of Catherine housed him as part of a volunteer work to help the 'alien' get used to Earth's customs. A good idea, in Robin's opinion, it also helped matters that this alien Buu wasn't some evil entity that the lab accidentally woke up.
Stopping at a street light that lit red, Robin let his foot down onto the asphalt and waited for the light to turn green; as if his own thoughts about 'Buu' summoned the alien, the pink guy himself was seen by Robin flying overhead across the buildings, the speed of the flight was modest, allowing Robin to get a glimpse of the Buu guy.
He was dressed more like a civilian, making Robin amused that the alien was getting acquainted enough with Earth that he was wearing casual clothes.
The light for traffic finally lit green, allowing Robin to drive towards the Police headquarters.
Beast Boy, Garfield Mark Logan
Letting out a caw in his Hawk form, he saw one of Jump City's residential parks, he flew down to and flapped his wings to stall above one of the trees, before shifting his form into a spider monkey to landed down onto one of the tree's branch; finally, Garfield hopped down out of the foliage of the tree while shifting his form into his human one.
Landing onto his feet, Garfield stretched his limbs up with a smirk, "Ugh, dude, never again am I flying for that long!" He chided himself with an amused look, and finally let his arms down to walk out from the grass, past the bushes, and out to the main sidewalk and park that was occupied by the many citizens of Jump City.
Garfield blinked a few times, as sitting across the other side of the pathway of the park, as some pink hair, gray skinned girl who stared back at him with raised brow and frown. Silence permeated between the two, before Garfield nervously gave the girl a raised hand in greeting, "Yo!" he greeted.
The pink-haired girl blinked a few times as she sat on a bench, holding an ice cream cone that had almost gone down to the cone part, "...hi?" she responded back, giving Garfield a weird look, seemingly uncertain how to respond to some green skinned teen walking out from the bushes.
…she probably saw him transform as well…
"They didn't have the flavor I wanted…" A different voice brought both his and the girl's attention to some Cyborg looking dude walking towards them, he had all sorts of high tech looking stuff showing, beside the sweatpants he wore over his lower half.
"Dude…" Garfield spoke, earning the cyborg's attention, his eyes shined in awe at the awesome looking guy, "You look so cool with that stuff." he hollered over. Sure, he turned into animals, but this guy had high-tech stuff to compensate for his body. The cause had to have been severe to replace so much of his body with all the equipment.
The cyborg looked surprised, before glancing at the pink haired girl, "uh…" he said, earning a shrug from her, before he glanced back at Garfield with a smile, "Thanks!" he responded.
