A/N: All right I know it's been a long time! Don't yell its been stressful! I started writing again in August (today its nov.12) and I told one of you faithful readers (you know who you are).

So now here's the deal: I have school from 7.35-2.20, but here's the thing i stay after and dont get home until . . . 4.30-ish. Why? Because my grandmother is a bitch, I hate her and I am waiting for her to go back to Honduras. It's a long story. (Send a PM if you want to know.) After walking the dog, relaxing and eating a snack for like 30min-1hr, i start the evilness called homework. Why do I do the homework right away? 'Cause I want to try to bring up my GPA so i can get a better chance of getting into a college (I'm a sophmore). So by the time that's over it's like 6.30 and I have to walk the dog again. So far up until my dad comes home I try checking stuff like myspace blah blah blah and attempt to keep up with my social life.

I am writing more!

I have the next few chapters written, but they still need editing and blah!

But I need a new laptop, which I should hopefully be getting soon (Blame my father). But that might not happen because we need to move because the land lady is a bitch that sold the house to people that raised the rent so we are going to have to move soon. My dad and his friend are working on getting a place.

I'm trying to be patient and not put so much pressure on my father (Who by the way doesn't even know I can write.) because on Nov.7 he was in a car accident and he is still recovering. He's fine it's just he's having some problems remembering and some other stuff.


Chapter 7- The Dinner

"So Phoenix… What was up with you on Mavis's shoulder when we came in here," Tommy asked trying not to laugh.

"A very good question Tommy," Jade said letting out a few giggles.

"Not funny," Phoenix said to them, "What for dinner? I am majorly starved."

"TOFU!"

"MEAT!"

Of course these two voices belonged to Beast Boy and Cyborg who were still deciding the main course.

"I think our chefs are still deciding," Tommy said.

"TOFU!"

"MEAT!"

Jade looked over to the silent Teen Titans, who would one day become their parents, "You are all used to this aren't you?"

"I don't think they'd put up with them if they weren't," Mavis responded watching TV on the couch with Phoenix, who was sitting next to him. Though unnoticed to the two his arm was around her.

"Well it's nice to see you two back together," Jade muttered.

"What was that?" Phoenix's voice was threatening.

"Nothing, nothing at all," Jade scampered away.

Dinner…

"Dig in," Cyborg and Beast Boy chorused happily. On the table/counter area there was several pieces of stake (A/N: Yummy!) along with tofu for Beast Boy, some salad, mashed potatoes, juice and herbal tea, which was obviously for Raven.

"Dibs on all the salad," Phoenix exclaimed quickly and then dove for the huge bowl of salad and dressing.

Everyone stares as she attacked the salad with her fork.

"What? I'm a vegetarian," Phoenix explained.

"Phoenix? Chill, okay?" Jade said knowing Phoenix had hardly eaten anything all day. Phoenix then calmed herself down and took slow, small, safe bites instead of her fast, large, dangerous ones.

"So how did shopping go today, Jade?" Tommy asked.

"Well some old lady thought Robin and Starfire were my parents," Jade said thoughtfully.

Tommy thought of how he should react to this, "Well now that you mention it, they do remind me of your parents."

"WHAT?" Robin and Starfire exclaimed shocked and blushing.

'Maybe that wasn't the best idea,' he thought, "Uh…yeah. Starfire has….Mrs. Green's gentle nature and Charles obviously favors her over Robin. Just like how he favors his mother over his father. And Robin has that same wonderful stare of hate against me, just like…Mr. Green." As he finished he was squirming under Robin's gaze.

"Tommy, Daddy doesn't hate you," Jade consoled putting down her fork, "He hates that you're a boy. And that you are a boy that just so happens to be my best friend. Besides my mom'll set him straight"

Robin stared at her his spoon in mid-air, "How are you so confident?"

Jade tried to hold in a smile at her father-to-be, "My momma's drop dead gorgeous. Who wouldn't fall for her? Let alone obey her every command?"

"Well, not her every command," Tommy interrupted, mixing his peas with his mashed potatoes, "If she told me to dive into the Grand Canyon, I wouldn't do it."

"I would," Mavis said, "I'd question it, but I'd do it."

All of a sudden applesauce flavored baby food landed on Mavis's forehead.

"And that was a one-year-old calling you a dumbass," Phoenix said trying not to laugh as the baby food proceeded to run down his face.

"Charles don't play with your food, it's bad," Jade attempted to scold her younger brother.

"Can someone please pass a paper towel?" Mavis asked.

"So, what are you all doing so far away from your families?" Robin asked.

Jade was baffled by Robin's question, "Uh…we…uh-"

"We were going to camp," Phoenix said out of the blue.

"Camp? Oh yes…uh…we were going to Camp….Camp-u-ture!" Jade exclaimed, stumbling over her words.

"Camp Camp-u-ture?" They all questioned.

"It's spring how could you possibly be going to camp in the spring?" Raven asked very suspicious.

"We go to a special school, not the small school-bus special, (A/N: Sorry if I offended anyone that rides on the little school-bus) but special and we get most of March off for spring break." Jade said, "Very top-notch school, got uniforms and everything." This time Jade was actually telling the truth. The group did go to a special school, filled with some very unique kids with powers. It was a very private and excluded school, not very known to the outside world. Kids that were expected to get unique abilities were automatically allowed in. However, students that were just special or dropped into a vault of radioactive slime would have to prove themselves to go in to the school. The Headmaster and other faculty were in charge of finding such students. The school required uniforms and school ID cards. It was a pretty normal school with cliques and normal classes, but it was just for unique children with super powers. (A/N: Yes it does kind of sound like X-Men and possibly Sky High.)

"What kind of Camp is called Camp Camp-u-ture?" Robin asked.

"Oh yeah! It's some kind of tech camp that teaches all this new technology to better prepare for our future," Jade said, "Uh…at least that's what the brochure said…a-and our parents."

"So, why aren't you there now?" Raven asked suspiciously.

"What is this camp of which you speak?" Starfire asked, "And does this camp allow infants, such as baby Charles?"

"Camp is a place where young people go for a certain amount of time to…do stuff. I never understood camp very much. It's just summer school, but better," Phoenix said, "And yes the camp allows infants."

"But why aren't you there now?" Raven asked again.

"We got left behind," Mavis said quickly.

"Left behind?" Cyborg asked with food stuck to his face, mostly around his mouth.

Jade spoke, "Uh…yeah…You see there was an emergency-"

Then Tommy, "So we had to go home. But we wanted to surprise our parents, so we didn't tell them we were coming home."

Phoenix, "We made a pit-stop and-"

And last but not least Mavis, "They left us on accident."

"And then that whole robbery happened and we ended up here." Jade said, "Isn't that funny?"

Just as Robin was about to speak, he was cut off by Beast Boy, "Yeah about the robbery- You have some pretty impressive moves. Are you all so….gifted?"

"It all depends on your definition of gifted," Phoenix muttered sarcastically.

"Phoenix. Don't start now," Jade hissed, she then spoke to Beast Boy, "Yes we are all….gifted, so to speak. I can fly and I have super strength and I have knowledge of various forms of martial arts thanks to my father." She held out her wrist to the center of the table to show her bracelet, "These are warrior beads I got them from a old woman. She said the warrior beads chose me and she trained me to use them. They glow sometimes. I'm still trying to figure them out."

"I can control water," Tommy said picking at his food. (A/N: He seems so measly compared to what Jade said.)

"I have a super-brain and I'm a master at technology," Mavis said, obviously impressed with himself.

"Really?" Robin said in disbelief.

"Yeah we're shocked too," Jade said, "Phoenix can you please share some salad?"

"Sure. Hand me your plate." Phoenix then started scooping salad on Jade's plate.

"So Phoenix- What are your abilities?" Beast Boy asked interested.

Phoenix hesitated and sighed almost annoyed, "When I touch something, or someone, I can see that object's, or person's, past and if I want their future, but the future is always changing so its never really the same if I look at the same object's, or person's, future more than once or twice." She then motioned with her bandaged hands, "I don't have much control over it so I keep my hands covered."

"She's also real smart," Jade exclaimed, "Learning a language for her is like 2+2 over and over again." This was also true Phoenix had the same vast knowledge of language as her mother did…does.

"What about baby Charles? What are his unique talents?" Starfire asked.

"He hasn't showed any signs of having powers. We're kind of worried. We started showing our powers at a very young age and so far Charles just seems to be like any other average baby." Jade said as she looked at Charles.

"What about the camp?" Robin asked, "Won't they notice that you're gone?"

"Well actually," Jade began, "We were hoping that you could let us stay here with you guys. At least until our parents expected us home. We won't be much trouble."

"Uh…we're going to have to talk about it first," Robin said.

"Alright. You guys can talk now while we all go to the boys' room so Mavis and Tommy can set up Charles's crib," Jade said picking Charles up.

"Who's going to do what now?" Mavis said shocked.

"Come on dufas," Phoenix said pulling at his ear.

"Do we have to?" Tommy complained.

"Yes now let's go," Jade said.

Tommy and Mavis grumbled under their breathes.

"And don't complain about it!" Jade and Phoenix yelled.
