Chapter 2: Dance?
The Teen Titans arrive outside the club, Cyborg parks the T-Car in the parking lot Robin is the first to get out followed by Starfire "Robin...this doesn't look like a club of dance, its way too dark and too many cars" Robin looks to his side at his confused friend "This is just the parking lot Star, there's plenty more to it" Starfire nods enthusiastically "Oh the Joy" Cyborg takes his keys out of the Car and exits the vehicle while Raven and Beast Boy remain inside whispering "Anyway, Cyborg told me you wanted to..." Before Raven could continue Cyborg peeks his head into the rolled down window "Guys come on, you'll be missing all the fun" Raven has a short sigh and gets out of the Car, Beast Boy gets out next as the group walk out of the parking lot "Good luck on the dance floor tonight Rae" Beast Boy teases while whispering, Raven returns a demon like stare at Beast Boy that causes him to back off, Cyborg puts his arm around Ravens shoulder "BB, tonight is the night we raise the roof of this place!" Cyborg yells with determination, Raven isn't impressed but puts on a false smile.
They stand outside the club to see there's bright lights and pop music blaring out of the door, The group have a short waiting time in line but as the group get to the front of the line a bouncer notices something different "Excuse me miss, this is a dance club not a Halloween party" The bouncer jokes while looking at Beast Boys clothing "haha good one...i mean...whatever" Beast Boy almost breaks character while Raven rolls her eyes, as the group enter the club they see an array of bright lights and tons of people on the dance floor having the time of their lives Robin and Beast Boy walk to the drink stand to get everyone's drinks while Raven is dragged by Cyborg to the dance floor and Starfire is flying in the air looking at the multicolored lights "Now its green...now its blue..." Raven and Cyborg are already getting some stares while their on the dance floor "We'll have 4 root beers and what would you like Raven?" Robin order while Beast Boy is looking out at the dance floor "Raven?" Robin asks again, Beast Boy keeps forgetting he's Raven and turns towards Robin "What?" Robin gets his wallet out "What would you like to drink?" Beast Boy opens his mouth but soon closes it "Think...what would Raven order at a club..." "I'll just have an orange juice" Robin shrugs and puts his money on the counter.
Robin and Beast Boy grab the drinks and make there way to a table to put the drinks down and sit down for a while, there's a long silence between the two of them "I guess Robin and Raven don't talk much" Beast Boy looks at the dance floor to see Starfire flying around the dance floor "This is most wonderful" She says, Raven tilts her head on the dance floor looking at Cyborg who is doing the robot "er...are you ok? Your circuits aren't breaking are they?" Cyborg who can barely hear Raven over the upbeat pop music "Good joke BB" Raven continues to stand there confused what to do, Beast Boy notices this and tries to gesture Raven using his arms what to do while Robins back is turned "What is he doing?" Raven asks herself while Beast Boy continues to motion with his arms, Raven shakes her head and leaves the dance floor walking to the table where Robin and Beast Boy are sitting, Raven takes a seat "Don't tell your tired already Beast Boy" Robin says to Raven, Raven looks at her drink of root beer "It's called taking a break"
Starfire flies in over Ravens head "Robin you must try the dance in the club, it is as they say awesome" Robin slowly shakes his head "I don't think I should Star-" Starfire grabs Robin by his wrist pulling him onto the dance floor, Raven sees this as a blessing In disguise Raven notices Beast Boy has his arms crossed and tapping his feet to the beat but suddenly one of the glasses of root beer on the table cracks "Calm down remember" Raven says to Beast Boy who shakes his head "How can I? I can't just sit here and watch, I'm bored out of my dark mind!" Raven takes a sip of one of the root beer glasses and has an ill expression "That..tastes...terrible" Another glass shatters into pieces Raven rolls her eyes at Beast Boys emotions "I'll try to think of something, just keep calm" Beast Boy takes a deep breath and exhales "I'll try.." Raven feels a cold metal hand on her shoulder "YO BB taking a break already, Raven you want to join in?" Beast Boy gets a sudden grin "I'd love to..." but before he could continues he notices a cold glare staring at him across the table "to...sit here and drink orange juice" Cyborg has a short shrug at Beast Boy "So BB are you going to do the dance tonight?" Cyborg asks Raven, who looks across at Beast Boy tilting her head "The dance?" She asks Cyborg "You must have hit your head or something forgetting the dance, I'll be waiting on the dance floor for the dance" Cyborg walks away from the two of them, Raven moves closer to Beast Boy "What's the dance?" Beast Boy gets a sly grin "You shapeshift into a monkey then you do the monkey"
Raven raises her eyebrow but a huge robotic hand is on her shoulder pulling her while Beast Boy has a short wave to Raven "I can't wait to see this" Beast Boy stands up out of his seat so he can have a better view of the action while being dragged to the dance floor "How do I shapeshift?" Raven asks herself, Cyborg lets go of Ravens shoulder and continues to do the Robot "Now do you remember" Raven has a short sigh to herself "Monkey...Monkey...Monkey" Raven continues to hope she transforms into a monkey, Raven opens her eyes to see she's far lower to the floor up to Cyborgs metal knee the transformation was a success "You was just playing with me weren't you BB?" Cyborg jokes, Ravens eyes are moving from left to right confused what to do but she looks up at Beast Boy who makes sure no one is looking shows Raven through arm motions how to do the Monkey "That's the Monkey?" Raven has a careless shrug and shakes her head "Their is no way I'm doing that" Raven doesn't go through with the Monkey "ok...Human Form...Human...Form.." Raven transforms back into her human form, Cyborg tilts his head confused "But you love the Monkey dance" Raven waves her hands up "I'm just not feeling it tonight"
Beast Boy sits back down In his seat and sees Starfire and Robin getting down on the dance floor "Am I dancing right?" Starfire asks while moving to the beat of the music "Yeah, you're a natural" Starfire gives Robin a bright smile "Thank you Robin, your good too" Robin gets a cocky grin "Well Batman is a secret dancer, he taught me a few things" The music turns up a beat and Starfire grabs Robins arms then begin swinging him around the room "WOAH STAR!" "This is most fun"
Beast Boy drinks some of his orange juice which is slowly breaking due to a dark energy around it "Yo, do you care to dance?" A sluggish Teenage boy with black hair and a bad posture asks Beast Boy who looks up at him "er...no thanks" The teenager takes a seat near Beast Boy "Why not? You'd prefer me to stick here and chat with you?" Beast Boy shakes his head "No bother someone else" The Teenager grabs Beast Boys wrist "Come on..." Beast Boy shakes his head furiously "I said NO!" Suddenly a dark energy surrounds the chair the teenager is sitting on and is flung across the club with the Teenager on it, Beast Boy looks around hoping no one saw that but soon notices Raven is looking right at him "Busted aren't I?" Raven walks over slowly nodding "Remember what I said about my powers" Beast Boy nods "Yeah..yeah I know, He started it though" Raven rolls her eyes.
Raven sits down in Robins seat "By the way, Cyborg asked me if I was going to dance with you..." Beast Boy sinks into his seat trying to avoid the question but suddenly stands up "I need to get some more orange juice" Beast Boy walks away from the table, Raven sits there noticing he still has a full glass of orange juice "Coward" Raven says, Cyborg sits down beside Raven "I've been dancing my robotic booty off" Raven gives an unenthusiastic smile Beast Boy walks back to the table holding another orange juice, Beast Boy takes his seat "So Raven you enjoying yourself?" Cyborg asks "It's the usual..." Beast Boy mutters while adjusting his hood, Cyborg takes a huge swig of his root beer and drags Raven back onto the dance floor for more dancing much to her dismay.
As the night carries on Beast Boy becomes more agitated seeing everyone else dancing "Why is Raven such a bore? It's almost as if she doesn't know what fun is" While on the dance floor Cyborg nudges Raven "Track 8 is coming up soon..." Raven again tilts her head to the side "What's so special about Track 8?" Cyborg has a huge face palm "We talked about it earlier, you and Raven remember" Raven rolls her eyes "How could I ever forget" Raven says sarcastically Cyborg bursts into laughter "haha great Raven impression" Raven again rolls her eyes, meanwhile "Star slow down!" Robin shouts, Starfire stops swinging Robin "Sorry Robin I didn't know you was a slow dance person" Robins eyes are spinning due to dizziness, Robin begins to lose his balance "Don't worry Star..." Robin falls down on the floor.
Cyborg nudges Raven with her shoulder "That red head over there has been staring at you all night" Cyborg points heavily to the red head, Raven looks at the red head "And your telling me this because..." Cyborg begins to gently shove Raven towards the red head, Raven is pushed right into the red head and Cyborg makes a quick retreat, the red head turns around looking directly at Raven "er..." Raven tries to think of something to say "Cyborg why did you do this?" Raven says but then gets a mischievous grin "My friend over there told me he likes you" Raven points behind her at Cyborg, the red head shakes her head in a huff "Whatever freaks, tell your robot toaster to take a long walk off a short pier" Raven has a simple shrug but before she could walk away the red head pulls her back into the conversation "You're all a bunch of freaks, your green you should stay inside away from normal people" Raven turns around looking at the red head.
"Don't get me started on that idiotic alien girl and if you look over there you have the witch of death valley over there" The red head points to Beast Boy who has is arms crossed and shaking back an forth "Who knows what she's planning?" Raven has a short sigh before answering "Listen, Me and my friends protect this city daily for people like you, you should be thankful that your still here" The red head has a good chuckle to herself "Protect lives haha that's a rich one, the witch over there looks more like a villain than a hero haha" Raven tightly clenches her fist "If you're ever in trouble...don't expect us to help you" the red head ignores Raven and turns her back to her, Raven walks back to Cyborg "So what happened? Are you in?" Raven shakes her head slowly "She's not my type" but something has been bugging Raven and that's Beast Boy crossing his arms and shaking, Raven walks over to inspect "R...Raven...I don't know what to do..." Beast Boy struggles to say, Raven stares at Beast Boy confused "What's wrong?" Raven asks, Beast Boy looks up at Raven very melancholy "I...I've gotta...go" Ravens eyes suddenly widen "Can't you hold It in until we get back to the tower" Beast Boy holds his stomach "I think I'm going to burst" Raven turns her head to the empty glass of Orange Juice "How many orange juices did you drink?" Beast Boy begins to tap the table using his index finger "I...lost count after 6" Raven rolls her eyes "Ok...go then.." Beast Boy looks up at Raven "Really?" Raven nods "Just be quick"
Beast Boy nods and almost breaks into a run to the bathroom, Raven holds her head "Why me?..." Beast Boy grabs the men's rooms door handle and looks to his side to see he's getting a few stares but then he looks at the women's room door "I almost forgot I'm Raven" Beast Boy pushes open the women's door and walks in holding his stomach "I've gotta go so badly..." Beast Boy opens one of the cubicles and sits down on the toilet "Now what?" Beast Boy asks himself, then he begins to fiddle at Ravens costume "How do you get this stupid thing off!" Meanwhile outside of the rest room Raven is there leaning up against a wall, suddenly a group of women walk out of the rest room giggling and notices Raven is standing there "Your team mate is so funny, the one with the blue hood" the group of women walk away and Raven holds her head "I knew this was a bad idea" "Eureka I got It off!" Beast Boy yells while finally getting the straps off, a few moments later Beast Boy walks out of the rest room and notices Raven has been there for a while "I did it" Beast Boy says proudly but Raven just rolls her eyes.
Beast Boy takes his normal seat fully refreshed but something happened in the bathroom though "I never thought girls pee'd like that" As soon as Raven started to walk towards Cyborg she suddenly holds her head realizing what just happened "Beast Boy went to the bathroom using my body...I shouldn't have let him go" Cyborg waves Raven over "YO BB" Raven walks in front of Cyborg who gives Raven a pat on the shoulder "Track 8 is up next, are you going to chicken out?" Raven begins to tap the bottom of her chin "Would asking me to dance be something Beast Boy would do?...yes it probably is something he'd do" Raven has a short sigh "I'll ask her" Cyborg raises his arm in the air "BOOYAH! GO BB!" Raven walks towards Beast Boys table, Raven looks at Beast Boy with very cold eyes "Do you want to dance? Remember just think what would I say" Beast Boy looks at his empty glass of orange juice, while Cyborg watches in anticipation "Sure, I'd love to dance" Ravens eyes suddenly shoot open "What? Remember your me" Beast Boy nods "I think I would have been able to get you to dance" Raven shakes her head, suddenly the track is switched and the DJ talks smoothly into the microphone "This is a slow one for you special ones out there" The lights to turn to a shade of hot pink and everyone on the dance floor is dancing very closely together with there hands connected with each other, Raven is slowly gritting her green teeth "It's...a...slow dance?" Beast Boy nods on behalf "So you ready then?" Raven begins to walk away from the dance floor "I don't think I should" Beast Boy stands up grabbing Ravens wrist and walks out to the dance floor.
Cyborg is in complete shock "WHAT! Raven dragged Beast Boy to the dance floor?! It's official this place is crazy" Cyborg is on the verge of passing out while on the dance floor "I remember this song!" Starfire yells at the top of her lungs "Where from?" Robin asks, Starfire gets a sneaky smile "We danced to it before, remember the whole situation on the boat ship with the girl Kitten" Robin nods his head "Now I remember...do you care to dance" Robin says while holding out his hand "I'd love to" Starfire places her hand in Robins hand, the two continue to dance very slow and close to each other "Starfire..." Robin says, Starfire looks under her nose at Robin "Yes Robin?" Robin now has a painful expression on his face "Your stepping on my toe" Starfire looks down and gets her foot on Robins foot but suddenly shoots her foot back off of Robin "Sorry" Robin shakes his head "It's not a problem"
Beast Boy puts his hands on Ravens shoulder "Just do what I do" Beast Boy says to Raven, Raven who usually never tries to imitate Beast Boy puts her hands on his shoulders "Now we just sway to the music from side to side" Raven rolls her eyes shaking her head, while Cyborg watches on "WHAT! Raven is showing Beast Boy how to dance...I've seen it all now" While dancing a question pops up in Ravens head "Why did you want to dance with me anyway?" Beast Boy thinks for a short amount of time "Well it's your always so independent and you don't have much fun so for one night only I wanted to bring you out of your shell" Beast Boy pauses while Raven hides a short smile "Me and Cyborg had a bet saying I couldn't get you to dance" Now the smile is gone on Ravens face "I see" Raven mutters, Beast Boy gets a small smile "I never thought I'd ever dance with myself" Beast Boy says while having a small chuckle, Cyborg continues to watch them like a hawk "NOW RAVEN IS LAUGHING?!" Cyborg takes his robotic eye out and cleans it to make sure he's not seeing things.
"You're actually a good dancer, you should do it more often" Beast Boy says, Raven returns a cold glare "This'll probably be the last time you'll see me dance" Beast Boy shrugs lightly, Beast Boy moves closer to Ravens ear and whispers "You know...you need to get a better costume it was like hell getting it off" Ravens eyes are glowing red in anger, Beast Boy continues to rest his head on Ravens shoulder Cyborg watching on in complete disbelief "Now there resting on each others shoulder..." Cyborg shakes his head and looks to see where Robin is, Robin is also resting his head on Starfires shoulder Cyborg has a short sigh to himself "BB's got Raven...Robins got Starfire...what about me?" Something catches Cyborgs eye that's behind him on the counter, Cyborg picks it up and its...a blender "I guess you'll do, I'll try not to stand on your plug" Cyborg holds the blender out in front of him and starts to slow dance with a blender.
Meanwhile during Raven and Beast Boy dancing "Do you know about this red head girl or something?" Raven asks, Beast Boy is quick to answer "Yeah I know her, is she the one that calls us a group of freaks?" Raven is quick to answer "Yes.." Beast Boy stops resting on Ravens shoulder "We get that from time to time, you probably don't know because you usually lock yourself in your room" Raven doesn't answer because she knows Beast Boy is kinda right "Now I know why you lock yourself in your room to get away from people like that"
"So Rae how does it feel being me?" Beast Boy cautiously asks "It's like a dream" Raven says sarcastically Beast Boy looks down in defeat "Well being you is much harder, just sitting there and watching other people have fun isn't fun" Raven rolls her eyes "But it's fun having a cape it feels like I'm super mysterious" Raven gets a small grin "Yeah the cape is cool" While dancing Beast Boy keeps staring into Ravens eyes "Rae you know something" Raven raises her eye brow "I have the most beautiful eyes!" Beast Boy says while looking at his old green eyes, as Beast Boy moves closer and closer to Ravens newly green eyes, Cyborg looks over his shoulder and has a huge gasp "Raven is moving closer to BB'S FACE!" Cyborg couldn't take it any more and faints on the dance floor which grabs the attention of Raven and Beast Boy who quit dancing and run to check on Cyborg who is passed out due to shock.
Raven stays with Cyborg while Beast Boy gets a glass of water and splashes it in his Cyborgs face, which wakes him up "Who? What? Where?" Cyborg holds his head "What happened?" Raven answers this one "You passed out...crushing your date" Cyborg looks to his side to see the blender is in pieces "Sorry about that" Beast Boy and Raven help support Cyborg to his feet which goes successful, Raven sees a great opportunity in Cyborgs misfortune "Seeing that your not so well...we might as well head home" Cyborg nods his robotic head "Sure...what about Robin and Star?" Beast Boy this time answers "Starfire can fly Robin home" Cyborg again nods "Yeah I hear ya, lets get going then" Cyborg leads Beast Boy and Raven to the parking lot "Why did I pass out In the first place?" Cyborg wonders.
Cyborg sits in the drivers seat while Beast Boy and Raven sit In the passenger seat while they take there long ride home, Cyborg enters his memory circuits but it's doing no use "Whatever happened must have been a huge shock to my circuits" The three Titans return to the tower and Cyborg is quick to head to bed because that night has been much too long for him, Beast Boy rubs his hands together "Great, now it's time to sleep" Beast Boy begins to walk to his room but is suddenly grabbed on the shoulder "You'll have to sleep in my room or else it'll look odd" Beast Boy looks down in disappointment "But your room is super creepy" Raven rolls her eyes "Listen I don't want to sleep in your room either, it smells terrible" Beast Boy gets a grin almost as if he's proud of the stench.
The two say goodnight to each other and head to their rooms "This room is a mess" Raven mutters while looking at all the clothes scattered across the floor, Raven avoids dirty clothed obstacle and lies down on Beast Boys bed "Even the bed smells uhh..." Raven complains, Meanwhile Beast Boy is in Ravens room "Remember don't touch a thing or else something even stranger will happen" Beast Boy has a short stretch and lies down on Raven's bed with his head lightly touching the destroyed pillow "No wonder Raven doesn't leave her room, her bed is so comfy" Beast Boy soon finds himself asleep.
A few hours pass and Raven still can't sleep "It's like sleeping on a pile of rocks" Raven sits up but soon remembers something "I need to fix the mirror" Raven again avoids the dirty clothes obstacle and walks out of her room and walks to Beast Boys new room (her room) Cyborg is having a short stretch while walking down the hallway "I can't sleep without my midnight waffles" Cyborg hears foot steps approaching and hides against one of the walls and peek out using his robotic eye to see Raven (Beast Boy) Cyborg gets a smile which soon turns to confusion "BB's usually playing games at this time" As he continues to spy at Ravens suspicious behavior he notices where Raven is going "What is BB doing outside Ravens room at this time? He's not doing a prank at this time is he?" Raven opens the door and heads inside her old room, Cyborgs eyes suddenly shoot open as wide as they can "BB...is going into Ravens room...in the middle of the night..." Cyborg faints again a loud phud is heard from Ravens room, Raven hears it but doesn't investigate as she's too busy getting the mirror Raven looks down at the sleeping Beast Boy "Looks like you've made yourself comfortable" Raven has a short sigh after and gathers the shattered pieces of the Mirror and runs out of the room back into Beast Boys room.
While at the Dance Club "Robin...i think our friends have done the ditching" Robin moves his head around the club "It looks like they have...just wait until I get back, abandoning there leader like this" Starfire puts her hand on Robins shoulder "I really enjoyed myself tonight Robin" Robin gives Starfire a small smile, the two head home with Starfire flying carrying Robin.
