Chapter: Day One

"I can't believe we're at summer camp." Raven was sitting slumped over a picnic table in a large building, the mess hall.

"I can't believe Star was able to talk you into coming!" Robin said. Three of the titans were seated around the table, suitcases and duffle bags next to them.

"Come now, Friend Raven. It might not be so bad, this camp during the summer." Starfire said. Her eyes were shining with excitement, looking around at all the other campers in the hall.

"I also can't believe I'm wearing this." All of the titans were decked out in full mortal clothes, raven in a black hooded sweatshirt and baggy jeans, Robin in long shorts and a grey polo shirt, and Starfire in a pink-striped button up shirt and a purple mini-skirt.

"Rae, you agreed to do this. And no using your powers." Robin said as a guy walked by, winking at Raven.

"Just a little stick under his feet to make him trip-"

"No, Raven."

"No one would have to know it was me!"

"No."

"Oh, fine." Raven crossed her arms, and slumped down even further.

Starfire sighed, and said:

"It is unfortunate that Cyborg and Beast Boy could not accompany us to this camp during the summer."

"They would have come, but they heard about that training center down south, and off they went." Robin sighed. It would have been hard for them to find excuses for their looks anyway. "Now, what are our names?" He asked for the tenth time that day.

Raven sighed, obviously annoyed. "Raven Southwell, from Raliegh, North Carolina." she muttered.

"I am Star Camwell, from Washington D.C. I moved here from Germany not long ago, so forgive me if my english is not perfect." Starfire said obediently.

"And I'm Rob Richards, from New York, New York." Robin said.

"I still don't see why we-" Raven started, but Starfire interrupted her.

"Ohhhhh, look! Someone is about to speak!" Indeed, there was a woman now standing at the end of the hall with a clipboard in her hands.

"Hello, Camp Meadowlark campers!" she exclaimed, joyfully, "You should be getting you Cabin assignments shortly," -she gestured to a man who was walking around the room, handing out papers- "And I will be going over some ground rules. First, no sneaking off the grounds, second, no camper is to be outside of their cabins after eleven-thirty, and no cabin may have their lights on after ten thirty. Third..." The woman continued on, but the titans were now whispering among themselves.

"What are you guys doing first tomorrow?" Robin whispered. He hadn't decided, but he wanted to be around them at least half the day.

"I was thinking about that sport they call Impery, no, Armendy, no-" Starfire began.

"Archery?" Raven supplied.

"Yes! That is it!" Starfire exclaimed, "The one with the Row and Marrow!"

"What about you, Raven?"

"I don't know. What are the choices again?" she replied, still glaring at the boy that had winked at her.

"Um.." Robin pulled a list from his back pocket and read from it: "Fishing, Archery, Go-Carts, Swimming, Boating, Arts and Crafts, Photography, Hiking, Theater, Horseback Riding, and Sports." He finished, tucking the list back in his pocket. "So what's the verdict, Rae?"

"Hmm..." Raven pondered, "Fishing, too smelly. Hiking, not if I can't fly. Boating, as long as I'm not in a boat with her" -she gestured towards Starfire- "Arts and Crafts? Uh, no. Go Carts...tell me more..." she said.

"Well, from what I know, you get in a little car, and your drive around a track, and, well, actually, I think that's about it." Robin said. It sounded interesting to him.

"And you do that for two hours?" Raven said, skeptically. It sounded odd to her.

"It sounds fascinating to me!" Starfire said, her eyes shining.

"Okay, Star, we'll try it first thing tomorrow. You're in too, right Rae? " Robin said, looking at Raven.

Raven sighed. "Yeah, I guess." There wasn't anything else to do. At that moment, the man came by, passing out there cabin assignments. They all grabbed theirs, studying them. "I'm in Dogwood." Raven stated, looking through the packet of papers she had been given.

"Oh, as am I, Raven! We are going to be room mates!" Starfire exclaimed, obviously happy.

"Oi." Raven said, glaring at Robin.

"And I'm in Sycamore." Robin said. A boy from a nearby table turned around to face Robin.

"So am I," he said, "Terrance Fort, Hartford, Connecticut." Terrance extended his hand, and Robin shook it.

"Rob Richards, NYC, these are my friends, Star and Raven." Star smiled, and Raven grunted. To her horror, it was the boy that had winked at her. Terrance stared at Raven for a moment, and she gave him a what-are-you-looking-at look, and he looked away and began talking to Robin again. Raven studied him, looking him up and down (get your minds out of the gutter, perverts!). He was strongly built, not gawky, but not so muscle-y that it was frightening. Both his eyes and hair were an almost identical shade of brown. He might remind one of someone they would find on a lacrosse team (A/N: at my school, anyway), Raven thought. A jock. Jocks were jerks. She rolled her eyes and looked around. Kids were everywhere, rejoicing and planning what they were going to do in the days to come. Starfire was looking around, amazed, as usual, and Robin was chatting with Terrance. What to do now? She sat there bored for awhile, then the counselors called all the campers to their cabins. Raven shuffled annoyedly after Starfire, who seemed all to happy. Of course, that's just how Starfire is, Raven thought.

Robin walked over to his counselor, a tall boy who didn't look more than twenty-one, and looked a bit like a cowboy, complete with hat and boots. (A/N: He's based off a counselor I had once, as the rest of the counselors will be). A group of boys slowly showed up, about seven in all. The counselor began calling roll, and the boys answered.

"Ronald Xander?"

"Call me Red." answered a sly looking boy. (A/N: sarcastically Gee, I wonder who's going to be evil!)

"Cole Harper?"

"Here." a annoyed looking boy answered shortly.

"Terrance Fort?"

Terrance simply raised his hand to show he was there. He was still staring at Raven, who was across the room, looking rather out of place in a group of talking, giggling, pink-wearing girls.

"Shawn Ruven?"

"Present!" said a cheerful looking boy with red hair and blue eyes (not based on Speedy. I've actually never seen an episode with Speedy).

"Rob Richards?"

"Here." Robin answered, still a but wierded out from using a fake name.

The last two boys were introduced as Thomas Growe and Jace Angelo, and then the counselor, after introducing himself as John Royte, instructed them to follow him down the hill to their cabin.

Starfire skipped merrily up the hill towards the Dogwood Cabin, Raven in tow. This would be wonderful! There were six girls in all in their cabin, plus Allison, the counselor. Three of the other four girls were chatting happily, and the fourth girl was walking along with a dreamy look on her face, earphones from an iPod in her ears. She looked happy enough, but also slightly lonely, somewhat like Raven looked sometimes.

As they approached the cabin, both Starfire and Raven got their first look at their temporary home. I was a log cabin, fairly small, with a smaller identical cabin next to it. Probably the bathroom, Raven concluded. Starfire was bouncing around merrily as always, and the other girls were talking and gossiping. All but one, that was. The other was walking along quite on her own accord, looking far off. The group approached the cabin, and Allison held open the door for the girls to pass. Raven's mouth dropped when they entered. There were three sets of bunk beds, and one twin bed, which had Allison's name printed on a name tag hanging from the wall above it. It was...small. Tiny. Not that she had expected it to be huge or anything, but she didn't think it would be this small. Before she knew it, Starfire was dragging her over to a bunk. Raven wordlessly pushed her things under the bottom bunk next to Starfire's and sat down on the bottom bed, as Starfire leapt up onto the top bunk.

"Rov, she's got potential!" Vin Harlon exclaimed in a hushed voice.

"Vin, I don't give a crud how much 'potential' that girl has, we're not letting her be our friend!" Rova Cintar hissed to her friend.

"Now Rov, listen to reason!" Laretta Fort, the third member off the small group exclaimed, "She's obviously in good with the Hottie from the mess hall, and we get in good with her, we get in with him!"

"Look here you two. I'm the leader here, I call the shots! And I say I can get that guy with no help. We don't need her!" Larette and Vin shrugged, and the three continued toward their cabin. Rov looked menacingly at the happy red-headed girl who was walking a bit ahead of a black-clad girl with purple hair. "Goth." she whispered to her friends, and they all tittered.

Robin was lagging a bit behind the rest of the cabin, taking in his surroundings. It was good to be prepared, to know is way around, if- No! He wouldn't let himself believe they were going to get into trouble here. There would be no need for sneaking around, he told himself.

"Rob? Hello? Anyone home?" All of a sudden, Terrance's hand was waving in front of his face.

Robin shook himself out of his trance. "Oh, sorry." he said.

"You zoning out or something? Oh, and who was that girl you were with? The purple haired one?" Terrance asked, looking slightly embarrassed to be asking.

"Oh, that's my friend Raven. She's, well, very...Raven-ish." Robin said, finding it hard to describe Raven.

"Um, are you and her...you know...involved?"

It was all Robin could do to keep from laughing at this suggestion. "What? No, no way. She's really not my type."

A smile spread across Terrance's face. "Oh. Um, good...hmm, you like the Red-head, don't you?" he smirked, looking slightly maniacal.

"Um...well, that is to say...er..." Robin felt his face warming, and shoved his hands into his pockets.

Terrance laughed. "Don't worry, my friend. I've done a lot of match making in my day, and as long as my sister and her stupid friends don't get in my way, I should have you and the red-head together in a couple of days!" He jogged off towards the front of the group, still smiling.

"Wait!" Robin cried, running after Terrance. He wasn't sure he wanted someone setting him and Starfire up, even if he did really like her. Wow, he thought. That was the first time he'd even admitted to himself that he thought was in lo- um, in lo-...well, that he liked Starfire.
