It took until I saw this image for me to realize how truly simular both teams are. Miss Martian and Starfire are both happy, optimistic Aliens that are trying to fit in on earth; cyborg and superboy are both the power house of their own team, they are also the most likely to lose their temper; kid flash and beastboy are both the jokers of the team, and while they both seem unintelligible, they have had their moments of smartness; raven and aqualad are the most serious and mature members of the team, they also both have dark, evil fathers that haunt them; and do I really have to explain similarities between robins?

Okay, I'll shut up now.

When I awoke I was in a bed in a strange room. I panicked until the memories of everything that happened yesterday came flooding back.

The superhero team. I was at their headquarters.

I got out of the bed I was in and checked my wounds, they were all healed, other than a few scars and bruises, I was better.

That's right, I'm a fast healer. Deal with it.

I stretched the stiffness from my bones and heard a few crack, it sounds gross, but it's necessary if I want to move properly.

I walked over to the door of the room and tried the handle, it was open. When I walked down the hallway I found no signs of life, meaning everyone that was here was asleep.

I finally found the main room after a couple minutes of searching, seeing the clock I read the time, 6:32, it would be a while before the others wake up.

Transforming into a jaguar cub, I leapt onto the couch and curled up into a ball. Then I began licking my paw and bringing it over my ear. That's right, I'm grooming myself. You don't like it? Well sue me.

After I had washed my entire pelt I licked my paws again, getting the grit out from between the pads. It's really uncomfortable.

I heard someone enter the room and I paused mid-lick, I looked up, it was superboy.

I must of appeared strange to him because he gave me a funny look. I instantly obtained a normal composure and sat up with my tail tucked around my paws and my head held high.

"Do you usually get up this early? It's 7:14." He asked.

I nodded, because I usually get up around 6:40.

Superboy walked past me and sat on the opposite side of the couch. I decided to transform to my human self so I could be more verbal, also because it must be weird for him to be talking to a wild cat.

"Why do you fear us?"

Ah, so this one is blunt and straight to the point. Good, I hate it when people stall their true questions. "Who wants to know?" I asked.

"I do." he answered simply.

I trusted him not to lie, he also didn't seem one to take a lot of pity on others. If I was to tell anyone about my past, superboy seemed the perfect option.

"You really want to know?" I asked skeptically.

He nodded.

My eyes narrowed as I studied him, looking for any betrayed emotion about his motives. I find nothing as he looked at me blankly.

"Very well," I finally replied, "as you may or may not know, I was forced to join the ninja clan that is known and feared as the dokugan ryu. They made me learn from them, but at first, I resisted. They had little patience for me and would beat and torture me into obedience. It wasn't long until I became like a mindless machine. I had lost my freedom. Those who are older than me have abused me like an animal my whole life. And now I am an animal. So why should I trust anyone when everyone I've known was bad?" I asked.

"Well If you all ways assume that everyone is bad and wants to harm you then you'll never find out about the good people in the world. Some people care enough to want to help you, you just need to let them. I once had no freedom, but my team, and the league, helped me get it. When I let them help me my life improved, I suggest you do the same." He said.

I smiled at him, even though I knew he couldn't see it, "thanks superboy, I'll try." I said gratefully.

"Yeah, sure." He awkwardly rubbed the back of his neck.

"Sorry, your probably not used to this kind of stuff. I sure don't expect it to happen again." I apologized.

He simply nodded, and we were plunged into a comfortable silence.

Would the league really help me? I hope so, but I'm not sure I could handle it. This fear I have will take a while to be rid of. Then there's my other problem, what will I say if I loose control of the jaguar? If some on upsets me enough then I'm sure to go on a rage killing. How do I expel the spirits? There must be something I can do. I decided it would be best if I meditate now, perhaps an answer could be made.

before I knew it it was 8:00 and I still hadn't come up with anything. This wasn't getting me anywhere, so I got off the couch and stretched my stuff muscles. Superboy had gone at some point to who knows where and I could smell Megan making something in the kitchen.

Seconds later I heard a robotic voice announce the arrival of batman and robin. I shifted uncomfortably from foot to foot as the older hero entered with his protege. Even though I knew the league were good, it was still hard for me to except them as allies.

Robin walked up to me and stopped about a yard away while batman hung back and watched his partner. Good choice.

"What's up, jaguar?" He asked.

"Ummm... the ceiling?" I responded hesitantly. What kind of question is that? It wasn't exactly intelligible if you ask me.

He looked confused at first, but then laughed while shaking his head,"it's English slang, meaning 'whats happening', or something along those lines." He explained.

Well that's dumb.

I nodded my understanding so not to be rude when I heard the arrival of black canary, but someone was with her this time, going by the name 'martian manhunter'.

The man who walked in had green skin, like ma'gann. I assume he is a Martian as well.

Soon the rest of the team of teens were here and we were all talking in our group well the three adults were having a private conversation of their own across the room.

Oh, and when I say the team and I are all talking in a group, I mean robin, kid flash, Megan, Artemis, and aqualad. Superboy and I were just listening.

Well, I was pretending to listen. After kid flash and Artemis got in a huge argument over which was faster, her arrows or his super speed, I stopped listening. All this teen drama is giving me a headache.

Instead, I was covertly focusing on the adults. The way they spoke in hushed tones was disconcerting to me, but before I could catch what they were saying, black canary separated herself from the other leaguers and came to stand in front of the team and I. She cleared her throat, getting everyone else's attention.

"Today we'll be training in combat, I want to see how your individual skills have improved, as well as your team work." Canary announced. "Care to watch?" She added to me specifically.

I nodded, deciding it would be better than just standing around aimlessly. That, and it probably wasn't actually an option.

I just hope this goes well.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Sorry this took me so long, I had this horrible thing called... wait for it... writers block!!! DUN DUN DUN!!! T'was a scary experience indeed.

Also, the other day I was thinking, and now I have something I really need to tell you. Okay, so you know how the word tater is a different way of saying potater (country accent), or potato? And tot is referring to a child, like in toys for tots? Well does that make tater tots potato children, I mean, tater tots even look like potato kids, just think about it for a minute. Am I right?

Congrats, you now know what goes on in my mind when I'm bored. Are you disoriented yet? Well you should be.

And now a quote by me: "whenever I remember to remember, I always forget."

That's right, I said that once. My grandma looked at me like I was crazy XD

Well, I've talked enough. arigato, for letting me waste two minutes of you life. Your welcome.
