Good Times
Chap.1
It was 11:28P.M. in Jump City. The legendary Teen Titans had just come home from a long battle with the H.I.V.E. Five. After saying their "Goodnights" they all went to get some much needed sleep. Except for their fearless leader, Robin.
Something had been on his mind ever since last week when he was cleaning his room. While he was going through junk in his closet, he found an old box that he hadn't looked at since he was 8.
In the box was:
A video recorder
3 videos
A purple ribbon
A picture of a girl
He had looked at the videos and identified the girl as an old friend: Rachel Roth. They had met at an orphanage when he was 7 and she was 5. They had been best friends until Bruce Wayne adopted him. Then, they just lost touch. He tried to find her for a year but he gave up.
Now, all he wanted to do was look for her. Tomorrow he would using some of the Titan tracking devices.
"Tomorrow, Rachel."

As soon as Robin woke up, he took a shower, threw on a clean uniform, grabbed the shoebox, and headed for the main room.
It was only 7:00A.M. Of course, the only other person up besides him was Raven.
"What are you up to, Boy Blunder?"
Robin gave a heavy sigh. "Just some research."
Raven raised an eyebrow. "On who?"
"Just an old friend of mine."
"Do you have anything against this 'friend'?"
Robin was confused but got it. "No, no she isn't a criminal or a low life or something."
Raven mumbled, "Takes one to know one."
Robin was about to argue when three Titans emerged from the door.
"Good Morning, friends Raven and Robin! I shall make the Pudding of Happiness to eat for the 'breakfast'!" beamed Starfire.
Everyone groaned.
"I'll find the Pepto Bismol. You guys stall." whispered Beastboy to the rest of the Titans.
For about 20 mins., Beastboy and Cyborg played video games, Raven read a book, and Robin tried to find some info on Rachel.
Starfire peeped out of the kitchen and said, "The breakfast is served!"
Once again, everyone groaned.
The pudding was a greenish purple lump with brown blotches. It tasted and smelled like dog crap.
Cyborg yelled, "Yo Rob! Why don't you try some of Star's delicious pudding?"
Robin was on the couch looking through the shoebox. "Not now. Save me some." he replied and got back to work.
"Hey, Dude," asked Beastboy."Whatcha working on?"
"Come over and I'll show you."
Everyone ran over, glad to have found an excuse not to eat Starfire's pudding.
Robin took out each object carefully and put it on the coffee table. Then, he began:
"What I am about to tell you is part of my life and secret identity. Do you swear not to use this against me in any ways possible?"
The four Titans nodded.
"When I was 7 yrs. old, I was sent to an orphanage after my parent's death. I had been depressed for a while until I met a girl named Rachel. Back then, I was known as Richard."
Everyone was surprised, but Raven had to be by far the most shocked.
"Rachel was a 5 yr. old girl who became my best friend in like 5 mins. She was short, perky, and rough. I'll show you a picture if you want. Anyway, we would do things like play tag and make videos with my video recorder.
"One day, when I was 8, Bruce Wayne came by and adopted me. We tried to understand what was happening but it all went in a flash. I spent years looking for her but never found her. I missed her a lot but something really strange happened when I started the team."
Everyone listened with big ears. Robin looked at Raven and continued.
"The night we made the team, I thought I had found her as soon as I met Raven."
Everyone was gawking at him at this moment. Robin looked directly at Raven.
"You look so much like Rachel. The only thing different is your hair. But every time I see you I think of her. But since you aren't decided to continue looking for her."
Everyone had on a blank expression. Raven looked as if she was about to have a stroke.
She took a deep breath and asked, "Robin, can I see that picture?"
He handed it to her and as soon as she touched it, memories flooded her head immediately. She dropped the picture quickly.
"Yo, Rae, you o.k.?" asked a very concerned Cyborg.
Raven's reply was to disappear into the floor.
"Oookay. A little awkward." stated Beastboy.
As quick as she vanished, Raven returned. In her hand was a picture. She sat down on the couch and said, "I was going to tell you my identity sooner or later. So here it-wait a minute, Robin do you know Rachel's last name?"
Robin looked baffled. "Roth. Why?"
Raven took a deep breath and said, "My name is Rachel Roth. I ran away when I was a little girl and someone took me to an orphanage. There, I met a boy named Richard and we were best friends until he was adopted by Bruce Wayne."
Everyone looked like someone just told them the cure to Cancer.
Starfire said, "This is the strange, is it not?"
Raven continued, "Robin on the count of 3, we show our pictures to each other. You ready?"
Robin nodded.
"1"
"2"
"3!"
They both gasped.
"It's me."
