タイタンライジング

“You have already had your fill with death.  No more.”
-Daizua to Robin about the massacre

Plot:

After his rescue, the Titans are taking Daizua on a tour of the city, but are soon ambushed by the Hunters, who escaped the island before it was nuked, and a fierce battle erupts. During the evacuation, a civilian boy falls behind and Laryep & Taom move in, but Daizua puts himself between the boy and the monsters. Daizua stabs Laryep with his sword, grabs the arm cannon and lets it fire on Taom. The other Titans drive off the last two Hunters and acknowledge Daizua’s amazing courage. He is later introduced to the mayor, who gives him a medal. When he return to the tower, they show him to his room, which is now decorated and he is given a Titans communicator, meaning he’s a Teen Titan, a member of their team.

That night, after a pizza party, they’re watching the stars, talking about what they are, and Daizua tells them how his father said that the ancestors of the Home People watch them. Robin and Starfire are amazed by his religious views, but the other three Titans laugh at the notion, and Daizua walks off. He goes to his room and prays to his father before crying himself to sleep…
