Author's note:

There you have it. I thought I just had this crazy notion to write something other than me being dark, mysterious, and being a curmudgeon. Believe me I had to take a keg of beer just to write this. It's either I manage to finish the story first or get alcohol poisoning hehehehehehehehehe. Pairings will follow as the story progresses and I'll introduce an original character based on the novel I'm working on at I don't own the Teen Titans. If I do then… TOUGH FOR YOU ALL (Dr. Evil Laugh!)


PROLOGUE:

Everywhere you see is filled with the essence of fun and laughter filling the air along with the carnival music. High above the sky, the fireworks display bursts into its fluorescent camaraderie as it lights the hearts and uplifts the spirit of the people below both young and old. The cool evening breeze from the seaside wafts through the carnival and carrying with it the smell of the ocean.

People along with their families milled around one stall to another playing games, purchasing snacks and food for the kids and lines formed what seemed to be a maze of people as they wait their turn on their favorite rides. On the large clearing in the middle of the carnival, the Teen Titans were enjoying the evening like everyone else. It was nearly a month of villain-free days for them and what better way to spend another evening is to visit the last night of the carnival.

"Dude!" Beast Boy shouts as he tugged Terra and Cyborg by the arm towards the spot that caught his interest. "We have to try the Regurgitator!"

"The what?" Raven's eyes widened and cocked an eyebrow from the mention of the very word.

Beast Boy points the way towards the ride with a large flashing sign that spelled "The Regurgitator" in neon colors of blue, red, and yellow. Everyone gawked in awe at the amazing twenty-story steel structure of tracks in near-impossible twists and boasts of the speed of 100 miles per hour. They watched a car speeding its way filled with passengers as it zoomed passed the crowd of spectators behind the metal railings followed by their ear-splitting screams.

"This ride is THE total killer!" Beast Boy yells and his pulse begins to hammer with the adrenaline slowly circulating his body. "I've heard that they're giving away free unlimited passes to all other rides for next year if they survive not losing their lunch in their seats!"

"I dunno, BB." Cyborg uttered that he nearly blanched faster than one of Starfire's glorgs. "I may have a cast-iron stomach, but I could feel my circuits burning out just by the looks of it.

"It looks fun." Robin, the leader of the Titans, nodded as his masked eyes followed along the tracks and where it twists and turns to.

"Yes, friend Robin! This Regurgitator is a challenge that we must face!"

"I'm not so sure about the 'losing lunch' part of this ride, though." Raven added dryly when out of nowhere, a long, chunky trail of what seems to be the result of some poor kid's snacks after eating it as it splattered near the railings. Everyone retorted and made a sickened face by the sight of it. Even Beast Boy went pale.

"LET'S DO IT!" Terra threw her fist in the air as everyone else ran towards the ticket booth except for Cyborg and Raven who hesitated. Beast Boy was the last to fall in line when he turned and saw that Cyborg and Raven remained behind.

"Dudes! Aren'cha comin'?" Beast Boy shouted from his line. The two could only shake their heads vigorously and started to break out in nervous sweat. Just before they could turn around to wait from a REALLY safe distance from falling objects, they heard a sound of a cockerel as they turned to find a green rooster clucking and crowing at them. The two's temples begins to throb irritably and steam was practically spitting out of their ears as they glared at Beast Boy.


After a few minutes, everyone was strapped to their seats. Beast Boy and Terra sat at the first car, Robin and Starfire on the second, Cyborg had the third car to himself since he took too much space as he sweats buckets on his face, and Raven on the fourth, unfortunately next to her is a rather fat kid munching on popcorn with spots of catsup around his mouth. The alarm blares all around them and the cars hitched forward with a sudden jerk as the drive chain begins to pull the cars on an upward climb to the top.

Despite of the amazing buildup of energy that could almost be felt around them, Robin couldn't help but wonder about something. Deep in the back of his mind, he could almost hear a certain 'something' that he could probably dismiss as the workings of his brain and how it controls his bodily functions. That thought alone was not too unusual after all since he is human like everyone else with a brain, but something is telling him that there is more than just what the brain's main function is, as if an inner voice was actually doing all the work and literally controlling his life.

"Did you just hear that?" Robin shouted at Starfire in the midst of the clamor.

"Yes! A lot of people screaming from behind us due to the excitement!" Starfire shouted back as she laughed gleefully.

Maybe a month of peace is beginning to drive him the impending insanity of boredom. After all, only those without an ounce of imagination are the bored ones. Such a pathetic loser who couldn't find time to enjoy what little time he has left to live.

"What did you say?" Robin growled aimlessly, searching for the source of the voice.

You'll soon find out, Boy Wonder.


(Opening organ music)

When there's trouble you know who to call…

"Teen Titans!"

"From their tower they can see it all…"

"Teen Titans!"

"When there's evil on the attack, you can rest knowing they got your back, cause when the world needs heroes on patrol…"

"Teen Titans! Go!"

"With their super-powers they unite…"

"Teen Titans!"

"Never met a villain that they liked…"

"Teen Titans!"

"They've got the bad-guys on the run, they never stop till the job gets done, cause when the world is losing all control…"

"Teen Titans! Go!"

1, 2, 3, 4, GOOOOOOOO!"

"Teen Titans!"


Beast Boy's ears suddenly twitched as he sticks both fingers inside his ears and twists them when he heard the strange music.

"Dude! Did you just hear something sing about us?" He yelled at the back where Robin and the others are as the car slowly begins to pick up speed on the arch towards the steep fall as everyone's eyes begins to bulge.
