As I wrote this and got ideas for later chapters, it turned into a sort of a Teen TitansxRed vs blue Crossover. Heh. Okay, so basically Terra keeps poking at Raven's religion and whether or not she loves the USA. So, Raven joins the military to prove she can be a patriot but ends up in the middle of a huge war. Most likely this war can be classified as World War 3.Please give me ideas as to what the war should be called, who the Americans are fighting, and what happens in it to get Raven promoted to Sergeant. Follow her as she goes from Rookie, to Private Roth until finally she's Sergeant Roth, Sarge to her squad of willing-to-fight troops in 31 Bravo. Will the Titans ever see her again? HELL YEA!! How will the Titans react when they see Sergeant Roth?

Warning: Swearing, snobbiness, patriotism, calling Jump City a hell-hole,Terra singing The Star-Spangled Banner, mentionings of Red vs Blue.

PITC: One-sided BBxRae

A/N: I'm from Canada so tell me if I get the USA national anthem wrong. PITC stands for Pairings In This Chapter.

Disclaimer: I don't own Teen Titans. I don't own the USA national anthem and I definitely don't own Red vs Blue. The people at Rooster Teeth do. Lucky cockbites...

Sergeant Roth!?!?

Chapter 1: You're no Patriot!

It was a beautiful day in Jump City. The birds were singing, the bees were buzzing but best of all; there was no crime whatsoever! A great day for the Teen Titans. But not for every Titan. Terra, the blonde geomancer, was bored as hell and wanted to kick some bad guy butt.

"I'M BORRRRRRRREEEEEEEDDDDDDDD!!!!!!!!!!!!! LET'S GO DO SOMETHINNNNNNGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!" whined the earth-controlling Titan, flopping down on the couch then getting up again. Then repeating the process over and over again.

"Why don't you do something productive? Like not provoking me to send you to another dimension? Or not giving me a migraine?" asked Raven irritably. Her hands were gripping the sides of her book.

"Calm down, Raven. What are you reading? Poetry, adventure, fantasy...?"Asked Robin

"Spells. You know, there's one here I could use to make Terra shut up... and one that would prevent her from moving ever again." answered Raven slyly, a hint of a cunning smile crossing her features as she looked over at Terra, the smile widening into a devilish grin. "Heh heh heh..."

Terra screamed and leaped into Beast Boy's arms. "Beast Boy, help! She's gonna jump me!! Protect me from her!!"

"Oh, Raven's just kidding, aren't you Rae?"

"How many times must I fucking tell you? It's RAVEN not RAE.R-A-V-E-N!!

"Sorry. But you're just kidding, aren't ya?"

"Of course!... Or am I...? Heh heh heh. Better watch your back Terra. Your spine is the first thing to go."

"Eep!"

Robin laughed. "Now Raven. Stop scaring Terra."

"Heh... Bow-chicka-bow-wow... I gotta stop watching Red vs Blue all the time..." Raven loved Red vs Blue. It was hilarious to her even though she hated guns.

Beast Boy grinned. He didn't know how Raven had found out about Red vs Blue but she'd instantly become hooked.

"Well, Terra and I are gonna go have some fun together. See ya around"

"Bow-chicka-bow-wow... Heh heh heh..." Raven snickered in the background.

He realized why she'd said that when Robin laughed as well. "EW!!!!!! I didn't mean it like that .I just meant... well... umm..." protested the changeling.

His distress only made the two birds laugh harder. Together they sounded like hyenas but Beast Boy's animal hearing could pick out a feminine, bell-like laughter coming from his empathy friend. Tears were rolling down their cheeks when they finally calmed down.

"Heh... Have fun together... Bow-chicka-bow-wow." whispered Raven as she wiped away a tear. She paused then cracked up along with Robin. They both fell off the couch, howling and holding their sides with laughter. Cyborg and Starfire walked in and looked at the birds on the floor.

"Ummm... Are they having a heart attack or a seizure?" asked the half man, half machine.

"Yes, do our friends require medical assistance?" asked the alien worriedly.

Raven straightened up. "No, we're okay. Beast Boy just happened to say something that my sick, twisted mind turned into a sex joke. Heh heh heh... Have fun together... Okay, I'm done."

"Yeah, we're fine. It was so well-timed that it was absolutely hilarious." gasped the black-haired boy between trying to get his breath back.

"Anyway... It's too goddamn hot... I hate living in this Hellhole we call America... Especially because we live in GODDAMNED CALIFORNIA!! I HATE SUMMER IN CALIFORNIA!!!!!!" yelled Raven angrily, the laughing fit having made her sweaty, tired and incredibly irritable.

Terra gasped, "You HATE America? That's unpatriotic! I'll show you a real patriot."

Oh, say can you see,

By the dawn's early light,

What so proudly we hailed

At the twilight's last gleaming,

Whose broad stripes and bright stars,

Thru the perilous fight,

O'er the ramparts we watched

Were so gallantly streaming?

And the rockets red glare,

The bombs bursting in air,

Gave proof through the night

That our flag was still there.

O, say, does that

Star-Spangled Banner yet wave

O'er the land of the free

And the home of the brave?

"See? I'm a real patriot!" said Terra proudly.

"Uh-huh... Fascinating... Wait, no it isn't." replied the violet-haired sorceress.

"You're not patriotic. Do you love America?"

"Erm... What? No, I don't love this fucking shit hole that I am forced to call my home."

Terra stared at her, horrified. "WHAT!?!?!?!?"

The Titans looked between the two, wondering whose side to take. "You know what? I don't care whether you think I'm fucking patriotic or not. This conversation is over. And you know what else? You're a mother-fucking, cock-biting fucktard excuse for a Titan." exploded Raven angrily, clenching her fists and gritting her teeth, "Why don't you go play in a wood chipper?"

Terra was speechless at the colourful string of words the pessimistic, purple-haired powerhouse had used (A/N: Heh. Too many p's). As Raven stormed out, making light bulbs and other various electronics explode, Terra opened her mouth to make a nasty retort but a lash of black energy across her face shut her up. Tears rolled into her eyes at the pain of the small cut. The attack had obviously been meant to only frighten and slightly injure but Terra, being a drama queen, made a huge scene of making Beast Boy hold her hand while Cyborg unwillingly inspected the scratch. Robin sighed and Starfire looked at him and said, "I believe Friend Terra has done the hurting of the feelings of Friend Raven."

"So do I, Star. I'll go talk to her." responded the Boy Wonder quietly. He stood up and followed the trail of broken electronics, especially the broken light bulbs to the darkest room in the tower. He knocked lightly on the door and called, "Raven? It's Robin. Open the door. I want to talk to you."

An angry voice, slightly muffled by the door, came back to him, "Go away. Leave me alone."

He sighed. He had known that it would be extremely hard to get Raven to talk about her feelings about the "conversation" but almost as hard to even get the door to her room open. Raven was reclusive, mysterious, but also very shy, especially about feelings. She put up a 'Keep away from me or I'll kill you' front because she didn't want all the chaos a social life brings but also because she was shy and her sarcasm and insults were her way of not having to socialize with others. It had taken him a long time just to have a five minute conversation with her and it had gone something like this:

Robin: Hey Raven.

Raven: Hello.

Robin: What are you doing?

Raven: Reading.

Robin: Nice day we're having huh?

Raven: Too hot.

Robin: Well sure, but we're in California.It's always hot here.

Raven: I don't like it.

Robin: You'll get used to it.

Raven: I highly doubt that.

Robin: So... What are you reading?

Raven: Poetry. Edgar Allen Poe's to be exact.

Robin: Ah. What's your favorite poem?

Raven: The Raven.

Robin: Shoulda guessed.

Raven: ...

Robin: Well... What do you think of Earth?

Raven: Too violent, too loud, too polluted, this dimension smells. So, pretty much, I don't like it. No offense though.

Robin: None taken.

Raven: Good.

Robin: What's Azarath like?

Raven: Peaceful, quiet, tranquil, beautiful.

Robin: Oh. Well then... Did you have festivals or something like that?

Raven: Nameday Feasts.

Robin: Oh. Okay. What's a Nameday Feast? And what's a Nameday?

Raven: Namedays are days when we name the day and on that day we have a giant feast because a good thing happened. Hence, the Nameday Feast.

Robin: Oh well... What do you mean you name the day?

Raven: You know, The Summer of the Talking Squirrel, The Autumn of the Eagle, The Spring of the Raven's Return, The Summer of the Fire Star, The Winter of the Dragon's Return... Etcetera.

Robin: Oh. What do you eat at these fea-

(alarm going off)

"Raven, c'mon. I just want to talk. Open the door."

"No! Go away! Leave me alone!"

"Raven. Calm down. I'm not leaving until you talk about-"

"JUST GO AWAY!!!!"

"No Raven. You're my friend and when you're upset, I'm upset. But bottling up your feelings and blocking out the pain doesn't make it go away, you know. You have to talk about it or it keeps getting worse and worse until you can't even levitate, there's just to much weight on your shoulders from your sadness. We have a bond, remember? I can feel your sadness and anger from out here, right through your door. Now c'mon just open the door and we'll talk, okay? We don't even have to talk in your room. We can go to the roof, or my room, or the gym, or anywhere!"

There was a pause, then a sigh and a series of clicks. Robin knew he'd won. "Door's open..." called Raven quietly. He smiled triumphantly as he made his way inside her room. As his eyes adjusted, he saw a forlorn figure sitting on the bed. She looked up with tear-filled eyes. "Everyone has a right for their own opinion, right? I'm allowed to not like America aren't I?"

"Of course you are." He pulled her into a tight hug. For once she didn't pull away quickly. In fact, she hugged him back.

"Then why does Terra yell at me when I say I don't like it?"

"I don't know. I wish I did. Don't let it get to you though"

Raven sniffled and wiped away the tears threatening to fall over her extremely long eyelashes. "Okay."

They continued to talk about other things. Life, people, happenings in each other's lives, and slowly Raven's sadness started to disappear, replaced by her sarcastic statements and monotonous voice.

End Chapter

So how'd you like it? I think I got Raven a little OOC with the laughing fit. But I wanted Beast Boy to get embarrassed about something (and notice something beautiful/cute/whatever about Raven) and be glad I threw away the 'Get-Raven-To-Pants-Him' idea. I write my stories quick but only if I have ideas to turn into chapters so make sure you suggest ideas and pairings for me. Please review. Thank-you. Hope you liked it.
