A/N
Welcome! First off, thank you for choosing to read my little fanfic out of the many there are to choose from! Secondly I'd like to say that although this isn't the most original idea, I'm going to try and shape it into my own story. The TV series aired an episode called Switched (Which is why the title of this fic is Switched Again) which dealt with Raven and Starfire switching bodies. I thought it would be interesting to have some of the others switch bodies too! So in a way I'm building off that episode to make something else I suppose. Next, I listed possible pairings in the description but I don't know if this will end up having any romance in it at all. I just put that in because I would like to do something with those pairing, but I'll have to see where this story takes me first. Well, now that I've taken up enough of your time it's time to read so here we go!
Starfire awoke to the sun shining through her lilac curtains and onto her face. She opened her eyes to the warm feeling on her cheek and was greeted with an image of her room upside down. She smiled as she pulled herself up to a sitting position on her bed; she must have slid forward a bit causing her head to fall off the bed last night. She stretched her arms out wide and hovered a few inches off her bed. A wonderful morning as usual, she smiled and made her way to her closet to get dressed. After brushing out her long auburn hair and adorning her usual purple outfit, she made her way out to the main room of Titans Tower.
Beastboy was sitting in his usual place at the kitchen table, a fork and knife in hand, as he waited for breakfast to be served. Cyborg was manning the cooking this morning, and the smell of sizzling bacon and sausage filled the air. Starfire made her way to the kitchen, a smile proudly emblazoned on her face.
"A glorious morning, is it not, friend Beastboy?" Beastboy seemed to be too preoccupied over breakfast to respond to her comment however.
"Don't forget to make some of my tofu bacon! No way am I eating that stuff you're making!" Beastboy audibly gagged at the thought.
"If you don't like my cookin' then make your own breakfast B! I ain't serving you and I definitely ain't letting that fake stuff near my precious meat."
"Aw come on dude, it's not even that hard to cook! Anyways, I couldn't even cook it myself if I wanted to, you're taking up all the room!"
"Then you'll just have to wait, won't ya." Beastboy crossed his arms in defeat and glared at Cyborg from his seat. The sliding doors opened then to reveal Robin who made his way to the kitchen to find a seat.
"A joyous morning to you, friend Robin!" Starfire greated Robin with a smile.
"Morning Star, what's for breakfast?"
"Oh, it is-"
"Cy's amazing three-meat experience cooked to crispy perfection!" Cyborg announced as he set a large plate in the middle of the table. "We've got bacon, sausage, and ham for everyone!" Cyborg nearly drooled looking at his concoction; he sat down and grabbed a plateful and immediately dug in.
"Oh I think I'm gonna be sick…" Beastboy managed to turn a lighter shade of green than usual as he got up from the table and made his way to the fridge.
"Sounds good, Cy." Robin grabbed himself a plate and found a seat at the table across from Starfire. Beastboy returned a moment later with a bowl of cereal in hand.
"You win this time Cy but I'm totally cooking lunch."
"Great, everyone is looking forward to soy burgers." A monotonous voice added from the kitchen.
"Oh friend Raven, I had not noticed your arrival!" Starfire felt bad for not seeing Raven come in, but wasn't surprised by the Goth's quite demeanor. Raven offered a small nod in Starfire's direction before going back to preparing her usual morning tea. "Please friend Robin, what is it you have planned for us on this wonderful day?"
"Well I was thinking we could try to get in some private training before lunch so everyone can get warmed up for the day, then after lunch we can run through the obstacle course a few times in pairs." A collective groan sounded from the other end of the table where Cyborg and Beastboy sat. Robin shot a look in their direction before turning back to Starfire. "I was thinking that we could go out for pizza later as a reward for all the team's hard work… but maybe combat training would be a more appropriate option for later?"
"Aw come on dude! We have to get pizza! We haven't had pizza since like, Tuesday!" Beastboy transformed into a small kitten and looked at Robin with large, pleading eyes.
"Wow, a whole two days, how have you even survived?" Raven added from the kitchen where she had been standing and drinking her tea.
"Let's see how training goes first." Robin got up and placed his plate in the sink before heading back through the sliding doors, presumable to his room.
"Star I think you've got dishes today." Cyborg added his plate to sink as well. "Ready to get your ass kicked in Mega Monkeys 4?"
"You know it!" Beastboy jumped up at the sound of video games. "Hey wait, you're the one whose gonna get beat!" Starfire smiled as everyone went about their daily routines, at least until Robin comes back up from the gym to remind them that they should be doing their individual training. Starfire quickly finished up the dishes, as they were the easiest to do at breakfast time, and floated over to the couch to observe the boys and their game.
Raven was sitting in a corner close to the window, hovering a few inches off the ground, obviously attempting to meditate without much success. Starfire watched as Cyborg performed some maneuver on Beastboy which caused him to lose that round.
"You cheated!" Beastboy shouted after throwing the controller to the ground. The two dove into an argument over the game but Starfire's mind was elsewhere. She wondered what Robin might be doing, but didn't have to think too hard because the answer was obvious: he was training. He always worked so hard and it was very admirable but also a bit sad. It seemed that Robin saved little room for fun in his life, other than the occasional video game session. Starfire wondered if perhaps the titans could enjoy a day off soon, maybe travel to the beach or the mall of shopping. Starfire's thoughts were soon interrupted by the loud blaring of the alarm. Robin rushed in through the doors and to the computer in a matter of seconds.
"Titans, trouble." A map of the city popped up on the computer screen, an image of a wand was blinking over an area of the city. "It's Mumbo, looks like he's causing trouble downtown. Let's move." With that the Titans made their way to the garage and piled into the T-car. Robin opted to take the R-cycle while Starfire chose to fly ahead.
Starfire was the first to arrive to the scene. Mumbo was standing atop an oversized black hat waving his magic wand. Somehow he had managed to animate the ATM machines as they were lining up in front of the hat and emptying all their money into a smaller, yet still oversized, hat.
"Mumbo you will not do the 'getting away with' this time!" Starfire launched several star bolts at Mumbo who waved his wand causing a stream of playing cards to shoot from the end and create a shield in front of him.
"Glad to see the audience is eager to participate, but I don't need a volunteer just yet kiddos!" With another wave of his wand the shield of playing cards launched themselves at Starfire.
"Eep!" Starfire vaulted off the ground and began flying, the trail of playing cards hot on her trail. Out of the corner of her eye she was the T-car and R-cycle pull up to the scene. The playing cards were soon enveloped in black energy and shredded to pieces. Starfire let out a sigh of reliefs and turned to face Mumbo who was still standing on his hat.
"Titans, Go!" The fearless team leader jumped forward and scaled the large hat in two leaps coming face-to-face with Mumbo and striking a fighting pose.
"What's that behind your ear?" Mumbo reached behind Robin who quickly blocked his hand.
"I'm not falling for any of your tricks Mumbo."
"Suit yourself." Mumbo shrugged. "We can do this the old-fashioned way too." Mumbo pointed his wand at Robin and a boxing glove attached to a spring shot out of the end, hitting Robin square in the gut and sending him flying back.
"Robin!" Starfire flew over to catch the Boy Wonder before he hit the ground. Catching him by the arms she placed him on the ground where he quickly recovered and went in for another attack. Beastboy and Cyborg were off fighting a pair of bicycles which Mumbo had brought to life and Raven was apparently waiting for the right moment to strike. Starfire flew in after Robin to assist him in fighting Mumbo. All they had to do was break the wand and he would be powerless once again.
"Raven, look out!" Beastboy transformed into a goat as he volleyed into the hair and head butted the large ATM machine that was heading her way. Apparently they had finished depositing their money and were now aiding Mumbo in his attack. Raven encased another one her black energy and threw it at the nearest building. Robin had managed to land a few punches on Mumbo before he was knocked back by a lucky kick from Mumbo. From his wand Mumbo sent a line of colorful scarfs which wrapped themselves around Robin, effectively tying him down.
"A little tied up there are we? Perhaps you could be my lovely assistant for my next trick?" Mumbo aimed his wand at Starfire who suddenly found herself trapped inside a large box. Only her feet and head stuck out of it. "For my next trick I will cut my lovely assistant in half!" Mumbo pulled a large saw from seemingly thin hair and grinned down at the alien girl. Starfire tried to free her arms but something was holding them down inside the box. She turned her head and shot two beams of energy from her eyes at Mumbo who managed to dodge them. "Feisty, aren't-" Mumbo was cut short as another beam of blue power sent him flying back a few feet.
"Boo yah!" Cyborg stood triumphantly on the street, his sonic canon still aimed in Mumbo's direction.
"How about a classic? I'll pull a rabbit from my hat!" Mumbo reached into the hat that was on his head a moment ago and from he pulled out a large, white ear. The ear was apparently attached to a rabbit, but not the usual ones Starfire had seen at the park, no this rabbit was 10 times the size of those rabbits and a lot less cute. The giant bunny fixed its beady eyes on Cyborg before leaping from the top of the hat and landing on the street below. Starfire could hear Cyborg's high pitched scream before she caught a glimpse of him running down the street, the rabbit following close behind. "Now where was I? Oh right, the trick! Perhaps it would be more interesting if I used two Titans…" Mumbo used his wand to pick up Robin and place him in an identical box to the one Starfire was in. "There, you Titans are a lot more enjoyable when you're trapped."
Raven and Beastboy were still fighting the possessed ATM machines down on the street and had not noticed what was going on. Mumbo waved his wand and two guillotines appeared above Robin and Starfire. Mumbo was about to unleash the rope when a strange smile crossed his face.
"Wait, wait, wait, I have a better idea! Why, it's brilliant! I could turn you two into my own little army! I mean mailboxes and giant rabbits are great, but two superheroes to do my bidding, well I'd be unstoppable! You wouldn't be easy to control though, not with those good-guy minds inside of you… Maybe I'll just switch those out for something easier to control, like a rabbit mind. It's perfect!" Mumbo raised his wand, ready to perform the spell.
"Beastboy! Raven!" Starfire cried out, hoping the other Titans could stop Mumbo in time.
"Mumbo…" A strange feeling spread across Starfire's body, similar to that of being weightless. "Ju-" As Mumbo was about to say the famed words a large green eagle swooped down and snatched the wand from his hand. The eagle then dropped the wand which was caught by Raven.
"Sorry Mumbo, shows over." Raven proceeded to snap the wand and everything around the Titans began to disappear. Mumbo was turned back to the old man he really was, the large hat disappeared as well as the traps Robin and Starfire were caught in. However, as the two landed on the street below everything went black for Starfire.
"Star? Robin? BB? Raven? Guys, wake up! What happened to you four?" Starfire slowly opened her eyes to see Cyborg leaning over her. Behind him the sky was still blue and the sun still high so she couldn't have been out for long. "Robin, you're up!" Starfire sat up slowly to look at the other Titans who were laying on the ground next to her. They all appeared to be waking up as well. She saw Beastboy and Raven and assumed Robin was on the other side of her. "Dude, what happened? When the rodent disappeared I came running back here to find you all passed out." Cyborg was looking directly at Starfire, yet he appeared to be talking to Robin. "Hello? Earth to Robin?" Cyborg waved his hand in front of Starfire's face.
"Excuse me friend Cyborg, why do you keep addressing me as friend Robin when I am clearly not?" Cyborg stared blankly at her for a moment before he responded.
"St-Starfire? Oh man this ain't good."
"What has happened to me friend Cyborg?" Starfire, now worried, looked down at her hands to see they were gloved and most definitely not her own. She looked to see her whole outfit had changed in fact. "Cyborg what…"
"Oh my god…" Starfire turned quickly to the sound of Robins voice and was greeted with the strangest site she'd ever seen. Sitting next to her was… herself?
