CHAPTER 4: SKIPPING INITIATION
It was 40 minutes later that Cyborg was sure his visitor wasn't a criminal or member of the Hive. He led him towards the Game Station where the other Titans were conversing. "Guys, this is Spider-Man. He's here to join us." Robin raised an eyebrow. "Spider-Man, huh?" He then closed in, scanning Spidey up and down, as if a doctor performing an examination. He then stood upright in front of Spidey and said "So tell me, Spider-Man, have you ever had a superhero experience before?" His guest nodded in replay - "Yes. Yes I have." "What inspired you to become a hero?" "... A very important person once told me 'With great power comes great responsibility.' I didn't take him seriously at first, and I paid for it." Robin nodded, stroking his chin with a hesitant expression. "OK... What are your powers?" At that, Spider-Man had leapt high and turning, smacking onto the ceiling and firing a web strand to the ground, leaping to where the substance had planted itself. Robin smiled, and the Titans behind him clapped.
"OK, Spider-Man... So far you sound pretty convincing - especially since Cyborg thought it was OK to let you in. That is very rare... Now we have one more step..." Robin tried to hide his snickering then, and all the Titans were doing so as well. Spidey looked around confusedly, hoping there wasn't a trap (but his Spider Sense didn't go off), bewildered with their behavior. "What? What's in store for me, huh?" At that, all the Titans yelled out at the same time, "INITIATION!" 20 minutes later, the giggling Titans were standing before a Spider-Man with a girly wig and a small pink dress. He seemed annoyed. "OK, this is really starting to bother me..." In a flicker of fingers and an amazing four seconds, all their mouths were webbed shut. "Perhaps we should skip the initiation," Beast Boy suggested in a muffled and regretful voice.
Soon later, Robin had introduced Spidey to the Training Area with open arms, their fellow teammates following. "OK, Spider-Man! You are now officially a titan." In his head, Spider-Man had a running thought of glee and near disbelief on a spree - he knew that this was the time to fight with friends, the time to share comfort in times of need, that he would finally ally. "This area is especially important right now because of a recent happening - but we'll get back to that later. For now, we'll have to show you the rest of the Tower..." The next was the GameStation, which Spider-Man had witnessed being occupied by Beast Boy and Robin earlier. Cyborg then elbowed the newcomer, noting "Hey, Spidey? Why don't you give it a try?" suggestively. Robin then added "Yeah - after all of this recruiting process I'm sure you'd love to blow off some steam!" Spidey shrugged and said "Well, I'm not a big gamer, but hey, why not?"
Beast Boy and Spider-Man were playing away at the racer game he and Robin had invaded earlier. Spider-Man was a little overwhelmed and embarrassed at Beast Boy's eagerness of virtual victory, for he himself appeared as a moderate player and it was only his first try. Beast Boy (due to arrogance and desperation) had ended up winning, and in reply to this he had jumped up, hands in the air and going "YES!!! I OWN!!!" Spider-Man, still in the same mood, scratched his head and said "Eh, yeah... You won..." Cyborg was across the room ordering pizza. After a tasteful dinner and interesting conversations, Spider-Man was shown his room. Upon five minutes of deciding to relax, trying to catch rest, by hanging upside down on a web, Robin entered and flicked on the light - "You don't mind to chat, do you?"
"Fine with me," the web slinger said while tumbling back to right-side up. "So, what's up?" Robin sat on the bed with him, and said "... You're a very interesting person... I just hope you feel welcomed to the Titans, it being your first day here and all... We're in a lot of turmoil right now, and I hope that it doesn't come out so rough on a newcomer like you - you could get hurt badly or something." Under his breath, Spidey sighed, but he gently and reassuringly replied "Don't worry about it - I've faced guys who fly around on skateboards and throw explosive pumpkins. It's a crazy life, I have - I'm used to it." "... Good... We have a very powerful enemy out there right now - he has powers quite matching to yours..." Spidey rested a hand on his new buddy's shoulder. "That's OK - we can handle it. I'll try my best to help you guys out. And by the way, thanks for coming in to welcome me." Robin looked to him with a comforted smile, and said "Thanks."
Peter had somehow recognized that face - "You had an idol, didn't you? Miss him?" Robin looked down again, to the floor sadly. "Yes... He was a great guy. Really smart, really brave, never gave up." The boy wonder sighed. "It was really sad letting go... He said that one day I'd make a great leader. As he was to me... And, well, that's how you, I, and all the others wound up." "Don't worry about it - we're all here for you. I am, they are. Be strong, and don't give up - be like him. You're a cool leader, Robin." Robin was just about to leave, but he looked back and said "Yours truly, Spidey..." he then closed it and walked off to his room. Spider-Man returned to hanging upside down, slowly easing himself into a calm, quiet sleep...
