Teen Titans: Wolves Of a Feather--- Teen Titans Fanfiction

Chapter 10- Another Chance

The stars seemed very different at this view than on my planet. It never got really bright during the day so you could see little patches of stars in some places. I heard earth was different. Everything was going to be different. How was I suppose to handle this?

I got a strong feeling of homesickness and I had never wanted to be with my friends more. I thought back to memories I had when we were cubs, and it sent a reassuring feeling through my veins. I had to stay strong, not just for me, but for them also.

After half an hour passed, the door suddenly slides open and I don't even bother to turn around. "I want to be alone!" I bark.

When I hear no reply, I hesitantly glance behind me and see Robin in the door, leaning on the metal frame. "I just wanted to see if you were ok." He says gently.

I turn fully around and curl my lips into a snarl. "Of course I am ok, why else wouldn't I be?"

He comes into the room and walks slowly toward the window. He didn't say anything else at first, but that didn't stop me from watching him like a hawk in case he tried something. "Space is pretty big isn't it?" He asked suddenly, surprising me with his casual tone. "I remember when I was little and all I wanted was to explore every inch of it."

He was lucky I only cared enough to shrug. "I guess, if you like that sort of thing." I turn back around. "Werewolves have no interest in other worlds. To you humans, we don't exist, and we're just fine with not existing."

He was silent for a second. "There are many worlds out there, and I found it funny at how surprised I was when we discovered your planet." I didn't get what he meant at first. "I thought it would be abandoned."

"Well it is surprising to find an extinct species actually living and breathing." I spit.

He seemed to sense my annoyance. "Averi." He says. "I know how hard it is to leave people you love. Trust me, I've done it before. Honestly, I would think you would be happy to get away from that life, even if it is temporary. I mean, you almost get murdered by someone every minute."

I look over at him with a face that could have struck fear into the mightiest lion. "Are you saying that you think I'm glad to be dragged away from the only home I have ever loved and brought to a planet with people who don't even know I exist?" A growl escaped my throat.  "I swear, you humans look at us as if we're some dangerous people that only care about killing, like we don't also have family we care about, like we don't feel pain."

"Well in our defense, you never gave us a chance to see anything other than the dangerous side." He said if as if he thought it wasn't insulting. "I guess I'm just beginning to see how different our worlds are."

"Well what did you expect, some suburban community that's just as peaceful and civilized as earth?" I could feel my eyes flaring. "I hate to break it to you humans, but not everybody has ways like you do. I don't care if they scare you, or if you feel threatened by them, it's how we live. You have a problem, you should have just left when we gave you the chance!"

He didn't seen very moved. "Well I'm glad we didn't, because we would have never had the chance to help you. I don't care if our worlds are different, I don't even care if me and you are. I just want to help."

I studied his face for a long time, my eyes narrowed as I tried to see deeper than just the surface of the mask. "Something tells me we're more alike than you want to admit, Wonder Boy."

He snorts. "You don't know anything about me, so how could you think we have anything in common?"

"When you live in a world of loss, you get to know the look of pain. I can see it in your eyes." My claw begins scraping against the glass of the window, creating this obnoxious sound that made him cringe. "We both have lost people in the past, not just anyone, but..." I studied his face again. "I'm gonna say a parental figure."
