Turn Away
The Titans were fighting Cinderblock, which Raven had him in full grip, complete black powers. She threw him into a cryogenic capsule, but just as she did a sharp pain shot through right arm, which made her black out and lose her control. Cinderblock flew threw the air and landed in the chamber and it closed. If it had not been for Raven's good aim they would still fighting and Raven would be in trouble.
Everyone gathered around Raven. C looked toward BB, then to Robin for directions. When no directions were given, he looked back at BB, who was staring intently at Raven. He felt sorry for him so . . . he made up an excuse.
"Um. . . I can't pick up Raven because. . ." he pressed a button on his back, "my arm fell off!" and his arm fell to the floor and ran off. "Excuse me for a minute. GET BACK HERE!" He ran after his arm.
Robin stared after Cy, until he felt a hand on his back. He turned around it was Star. "Um. . . Friend Robin shouldn't we be helping Friend Cy find his arm?"
"Um. . . Beast Boy can you bring Raven to the tower!" Robin had finally decided, "Me and Star are going to help Cy find his arm!"
They ran to the tower. When they got there, Cy, was eating a pizza. He looked up and quickly thought up more excuses.
"It's, ok," muttered Robin. "I hate being put under pressure too."
"Thank you!" pleaded Cyborg as he hugged Robin's legs and kissed Star's boots. "Besides, I could not think of any more lies to tell. You guys know BB likes Raven, it's obvious."
It was forty-five minutes before BB walked in holding R. During this time everybody had a nice conversation about them until they walked in.
"I'll admit, there some feelings between Beast Boy and Raven." Robin thought to himself aloud.
"Feelings," started Cyborg, "try loads of bad memories,"
"Um. . . Cy," Robin warned
"Tons of awkward moments," Cyborg continued
"Friend Cyborg!" Starfire hurried.
"And millions of -"
"CYBORG!"
"WHAT!"
Cy stopped just in time to see that Beast Boy landing on the couch and Raven standing at the hallway or living room door.
"Millions of what Cy?" pressed Beast Boy raising an
"Millions of um. . . pounds of uh. . . cheese!?" Cy fibbed, "THAT'S RIGHT MILLIONS OF POUNDS OF CHEESE WILL BE DELIVERED TO THE TOWER IN THE MORNING!" he yelled as if he were excited (and to make himself sound more believable).
BB: "Yeah, right,"
Rae: "We'll let you go."
BB: "This time,"
Raven went to her room and (you people know, what Raven does best). Beast Boy grabbed the game controller and bet Cy 5 that he could beat him in Robo Kung Fu Lions II: Wrath of the Pirate Cars, which he bought today while helping Raven. Fortunately, Cy took him up on that offer. Beast Boy got 5 and Cy learned never to bet with Beast Boy on a game that included any animals no matter how robotic they are. BB went to his room. As soon as CY was sure he was gone down the hall he said, "See, I told, awkward moments. They spoke each others sentence."
"Right. . . Star and I are going to bed. You coming Cy?" Robin asked
"No, I have to find somebody to deliver millions of pounds of cheese to the tower in the morning." He answered grabbing the phonebook.
"OK? Later." responded Robin as rolled his eyes and left.
Beast Boy went down the hallway towards Raven's room and stuck his head in the doorway.
"Um. . . Raven? You ok?" he checked in. BB slowly entered her room.
Caught off guard Raven yelled, "Get out!" and proceeded to throw books at him. He moved to the right, barely missing him. "I thought I told you, , ," She enveloped him in her darkened spirit energy using her right hand. He remained calm and collected as he knew that their relationship was as complicated and at times, as simple as snow. As she slowly contoured to the lines of his body, she stopped. Her eyes widened and her mouth opened wide and then she let him go. Immediately after that she winced at the pain her right hand.
"Sorry Beast Boy," Raven apologized, "I didn't realize it was you."
"It's okay," he waltzed over to Raven to comfort her, "I would rather die by your choking and almost painful grip anyway!" He tried to make a joke for it, but all he could manage to make her do was smile a weak Mona Lisa smile, which was enough for him. "So do you know what the problem is?" Tears started swelling in her eyes. "What's the matter Rae? I didn't mean to -"
"No, it's alright," she cut him off as he clutched her head close to his chest to try to prevent her from full on crying, "I think I know what it is, but I don't want it to be that if I'm right."
"Don't worry if it is what you think it is I'll help you beat it. It our secret." he said, putting his finger to her lips.
