She quickly stood up and moved away from them.
She needed to find something to occupy her time, and right now she felt like getting sweaty and dirty, which meant the ideal activity for her was the obstacle course.
She walked over and turned the dial that decided the difficulty to one and set the countdown. She quickly took her place at the starting line and watched the clock

The siren signaling the start went off. She ran forward and ducked under a door as it slammed down. She was already rolling back to her feet when a blade came slicing horizontally at her. She jumped over and went flying as a section of the ground dropped out from under her.
Nikki barely managed to grab the edge and pull herself up. She felt the blasts as they slammed into her. She could feel the heat licking at her skin but she charged forward anyways. Lasers never did have an effect on her. She was just glad that it wasn't bullets, as painful as lasers could be to others, they were still just light and couldn't push her back. She fell and went sliding down a slide that had been hidden behind an outcropping, quickly pulling her board off her back she managed to pull it under her feet. She glided down the slide and noticed the long trench she'd need to clear to get to the other side. She popped her back wheels just as she reached the end of the ramp and went sailing. Her eyes widened as a barrage of discs came from both sides.
"CRAP!"
She brought her energy soaked right hand up and swatted at the ones on her right. Two went flying while three more smashed into her body and exploded throwing her at the other discs. Nikki lost track of her board as the explosions from the second set of discs threw her to the side.
Her head hit the edge of the wall as she fell into the pit.
Nikki coughed. "Okay, that one hurt."

He noticed one of the other titans go off to the obstacle course. He was interested. At least, he'd get to know his 'teammates' better. He went out as the count down started. He was watching from behind the balcony, overlooking the course. She was skillfully moving through the course on her skateboard like a pro. Needless to say, he was impressed.

The device finally fell to the ground and erupted into flames. Ion sighed in an irritated manner as this always seemed to happen to whatever she touched, although it could be a result of her curiousity. She picked up the half-melted communicator and the fire began to die slowly, as if she were drawing the flames away.
Ion's wrist and hand glowed orange in the fiery steam that enshrouded her. The broken communicator was cool to touch, as the flames had gone, but there would be no fixing the damage. She winced at the thought of having to ask for a new one.

The Pembleton explosion... Halo thought. How on earth did you even survive that...? He looked at his sword and then back at Nikki. "Owen Kingsley. I can't honestly say I have powers." He drew his sword. "I simply have weapons created by the great Merlin himself." He sheathed it again, and looked around the room. "What do you think about the others? I think only a couple of them are actually enjoying the cookout."

"Man, can you believe this, it's bee five years, and suddenly we're here, a new team. The new Teen Titans. You know, I almost said know, I didn't want to leave my friends behind, but they straight out told me, if I didn't accept, they would kick my ass." Nikki's eyes watered. "I never wanted to leave them. When I had nothing, they gave me back my life."

He approached her and offered his hand. "No one's mad. Confused and slightly surprised, but not mad." He decided to see if he could probe her. "What's a girl like you doing here?" At the same time, he kept watch on her aura, to see if there were any changes in her mood.

"I'm here because I was told to come here." She held up the communicator with a smile. She would fit in after all. She wagged her tail more and laughed.
"Even I don't know why. I just was told to come. Teen Titans, or something like that." She thought on it for a moment. That sounded familiar. Maybe she had heard it on the news before? She shrugged and crouched down a little.
"You're Owen, and you're Nikki, right?"

Again, he wasn't sure how to respond. He had never seen a person, mutated or otherwise, act like this before. "W-why wouldn't we?" He muttered, struggling to support her. She was deviously heavier than she looked. "You're supposed to be our teammate, right?" Though this was rather unnerving to Halo. "Could you please...get off?"

Ion swiftly walked over to the suit of armor and stood in front of his path. He was a great deal taller than her, but she'd put up a fight if he tried to pass. "Look, we probably didn't get off to a right start.. and seeing that we're probably going to be on the same team, I'd say we call a truce, yeah?" She shot out her hand in an awkward attempt of a handshake and stared up at him insistently.

"Hold on. I'm getting this kitty off you."
Before Owen could react her feet were digging into his back to give her leverage to pull the catling off. When that was worked she practically teleported to his shoulders and started to pull at her from there.
The damn cat just wouldn't let go no matter what position she took. And of course with all the pulling and the extra weight it wasn't a surprise when they fell backwards.
Nikki blushed a little as Clarissa's back smashed her breasts flat. And of course the was the male member of the trio that was laying on top of both of them.

"Hallo?" Tanzen- Traum gazed about her in slight awe.
This was a lot more fancy so far than what they had in Cottbus. She saw a girl fall to the ground with a feline girl on top of her and a guy on top of her.
"Sie benötigen hilfe?" She walked over to them and then realized that she'd spoken in German, "Do you need assistance?"

Dammit, there are way too many cute girls on this island. She sighed. "So are either of you two ever going to get off me?"

"Wait, wha--" Halo couldn't finish. She put her heel on his back and pulled the cat girl. All in all, this was quite painful, as Clarissa dug her claws into this skin. "Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow! Hey! I told you! I'm still a regular person--!!" Halo lost his balance, so he and Clarissa fell flat on top of Nikki. This must have looked embarrassing. Especially after a girl speaking German came up to them and asked for help.
Nikki spoke again. "So are either of you two ever going to get off me?"
Halo glared. "Well we wouldn't be like this, had you not pulled on her like that..." He struggled to roll over, now face down on the floor and off of Nikki. He then, got up slowly, keeping his balance. Clarissa was extremely clingy to say the least.

Ion winced in pain as he shook her hand and quickly covered her flaw with a strained smile; She could honestly feel the bones in her hand grinding together. She withdrew her hand and continued to smile at him in awkward silence as she flexed her hand behind her back.
"Thanks," she muttered, her voice barely audible. taking the shoe from him. Instead of putting it back on, Ion tossed it to the ground and kicked off her other slipper.
"If you are going to make a habit of throwing things at me, maybe you should throw heavier or harder objects, that way I can practice dodging."
Ion looked up at him and frowned, staring at him doubtfully. "I don't think dodging is necessary in your case," she replied, bending down to brush the dirt from her bare feet.

Halo drew his sword. He absorbed the aura from within, and focused the ethereal energy to his feat. Halo then made a dash across the water, heading toward the city at a high speed. He couldn't fly like some other heroes, but his magic sword allowed him to be very versatile.
