Chapter 4 - The team

Zatanna rested her forehead against the door, taking a deep breath before turning around and facing her new room. She decided she would settle herself in, concluding that it was a way she may be able to feel a little more comfortable in this awkward situation she found herself in.

She walked over to her bed, sitting down, causing the blankets to scrunch up around where she sat. "hcuop raeppa" she said softly, causing a sparkling purple pouch to appear in her delicate hands. Though, they pouch appeared to be small, in it contained everything Zatanna owned. It had unlimited space. Which was perfect for any girl who adored clothes and shoes. Which was Zatanna.

She spent the next hour placing her personal items around the room. Though most of it was clothes and magical object of hers. Nothing to personal. No frames of family members. Though she didn't have many.

She took her time doing this, not really keen on the idea of going back out there. Though, she realized that the quicker she got her job done here, the sooner she could leave.

She stepped back towards the door, looking around her room, sighing to herself as she realized there was nothing more for her to do, and she had to face the music, as sayings would go.

Dick had returned to the main room where he intended on waiting for Zatanna. It would most likely be the first room she would find and come to, as it was the closest to all the rooms and the largest.

He had just sat down on the couch as Starfire had walked in. There relationship had been a bit rocky over the past few weeks. She was becoming a somewhat defensive and over protective woman. Jealousy, being her number one issue. Her being from another planet was starting to become an issue as well. Though, he knew that all relationships went through problems...

In the room was Beast Boy making himself his fifth sandwich in the past half hour. Blue Beetle was sitting at the table finishing of his first sandwich. Robin sat on the couch, creepily cleaning his sword and Raven who was sitting on the same couch, though keeping her distance from Damian as she read through an old enchanted book. Terra was nowhere to be found.

Kori made her way over to Dick, sitting down beside him. "Hey babe." Dick said, not looking at her however, instead staring up at the television screen that had the news playing. Kori smiled softly, before speaking. "Is the new girl here yet?" she asked. Dick simply nodded his head.

As if on cue, Zatanna stepped though the room door, causing everyone's head to prop up. She was standing in her uniform, an awkward smile on her face as she noticed the stares and glares.

Dick stepped up, removing himself from Kori as he turned to face everyone. "Team, this is our new member and trainer, Za-" he began but was cut off by a green skinned boy.

Beast Boy, also known as Garfield ran over in front of Zatanna. "Zatanna Zatara." He finished off Dicks sentence. "Cool!" he said in a squeaky voice. "My names Beast Boy or Garfield, my friends call me Gar... but you can call me whatever you want babe." He said with a smirk. Zatanna raised an eyebrow looking gown at the kid. "Uh...nice to meet you Garfield." She said, forcing a smile. Raven walked up behind Gar, slapping him on the back of the head with her book. "Ignore him." She said bluntly, looking up at Zatanna. Raven would never admit it, but she looked up to Zatanna and was excited for her being here. "I'm Raven. That's Blue Beetle, but you can call him Jaime." She said, holding her hand out in the direction to him. "Terra isn't here at the moment. She isn't around much, usually stays in her room." Raven said with no expression. She then turned to Damian, who was out of uniform along with Jaime. "That's-" she began. "I'm Damian." He said looking up, glaring at Zatanna. "I'd say it was honor to meet you, but I don't like party tricks." He said as he continued to clean his sword.

Zatanna narrowed her eyes at the raven-haired boy. He behaved nothing like any of the Robins she had ever met. He didn't have the mischievous grin or humour. She smirked as she mumbled quietly under her breath before snapping her fingers. Damian's sword disappeared from his hand and appeared in Zatanna's. She held it up, twisting it in her hand as if analyzing it. "Party trick, did you say?" she said as she continued to smirk. Damian gasped as his sword disappeared from his hands. "Hey! Give it back! Or ill make you regret your very existence." Zatanna smirked. "How about you apologies and I'll give it back." She said looking at him. Everyone in the room turned to face Damian. It was only the glares he got from the rest of the team that regretfully forced him to obey. "Fine...sorry." He mumbled. Zatanna smiled throwing his sword back to him. "You're forgiven."

Dick had a wide smirk on his face. He had missed her, whether he wanted to admit it or not. This side of her, made him regret every decision he had ever made with her. She had handled Damian well, and had done it with confidence, yet kindness. Its how she used to deal with him and Wally before they grew out of their childish ways.

Yes . some things never change
