(Sorry it took me a while to get this up. It was a little harder to get this chapter just right. This one is going to be a short one. Basically everyone is going to get ready to go and what happens as they are getting to Slade's hangout. I am sorry if you wanted a longer chapter but I thought that there should be a time to sort things out and also to address some feeling for one another.)
Everyone was in the place where the submarine was stored. Red X was inside the submarine getting ready for the submarine to go off. Cyborg walks in because he wanted to have a talk with Red X.
"How are you doing?" Cyborg asks.
"Just making sure that this baby is water bound," Red X responds.
"Why?"
"Because Slade will most likely be expecting a land attack and not water attack. If we want to get inside his base then we will need to go the route that he has least guarded."
"Do you need any help?"
"I am checking the controls but I already found that the latch is airtight. I need to see though if we have enough oxygen and if the speed turbines are plugged up."
"I'll check the oxygen." Cyborg turns to Red X, "How do you know so much about this stuff?"
"Hmm, you have to be pretty good at this stuff when you make a living of…doing things that usually get you chased. Worst thing that can happen is you being chased and the vehicle that you are using to get away brake down on you. That usually ends up with the person who you are running away from catching you and if it is your dad then you get sent back home after a lecture, and if it's a bad guy then expect not to get out of the experience without a few broken bones.
Cyborg was curious, "You don't fight villains?"
"I can, but I don't like to. I usually like stealing from them or when I was new to the whole hero thing, infiltrate their base and take them out behind their backs. First gig I ever did was infiltrating the HIVE. That was fun. Still remember the looks on their faces when they finally figured out that I was sabotaging their missions and that I was really a Titan. Oh, good times."
"You infiltrated the HIVE?"
"Yep, I was able to do that for two years actually until I helped take down the Joker. One of my most famous yet unpleasant missions I did."
"The oxygen tanks are good."
Cyborg then walked to the exit with Red X. They went to the speed turbines. Red X took a look inside.
"So," Cyborg starts, "Are you in love with BG?"
Red X bumps his head inside the turbine. "What?" he said.
"Are you in love with BG?"
Red X took his head out of the turbine while rubbing his head. He was glad that the mask was still on because he could feel himself blushing. "No."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes. I like her, but she is like a little sister. Not a girlfriend."
"Hmm, I've never known anyone who punched someone for taunting their sister's parents before."
"Then you haven't met a lot of siblings. I'm also best friends with Beastly and he is BG's older brother."
"You told us that already."
"Oh, did I? Let's just get back to work, all right?"
Cyborg nodded but he was still not convinced that Red X did not have a thing for BG.

Beast Boy was with BG. BG was packing some supplies for the trip. "So, you really like Red X?"
BG looks up at Beast Boy, "What?"
"I mean I don't mean to pry but I thought that I noticed that you like Red X."
"I don't. I like him, but not in the way that you are thinking of." BG's face then cringes.
"What are you talking about? You love him," Passion screams.
"He makes me happy," Happy coos.
"He comforts me," Timid whispers.
"He doesn't mind me being rude," Rude says.
"Re res ru," (He smells good) Beast says.
"He makes a good pillow," Sloth yawns.
"He is fun to play with," Brave yells.
"He lets us be ourselves," Rage says.
"Oh come on. He is five years older than us," Knowledge tries to reason. "It will never work out."
"Quiet Knowledge," scream Happy, Brave, Rage, Rude, Passion, and Beast. Beast said it like "Arf Wref" (Quiet Yellow). Timid was too shy to say these words and Sloth was too lazy.
"You are arguing with yourself," Beast Boy says. "I see the same look on Raven when she is losing control of her emotions."
BG glares at Beast Boy, "I am not losing control of my emotions. I am just not agreeing with them at the moment."
"So your emotions all like Red X?"
BG is still glaring at Beast Boy, "You could say that."
"So why don't you?"
BG thought about it, "Probably because I'm scared."
"Of course you're scared. We all are when it comes to love. But we are never going to get anywhere if you don't try."
BG's face softens, "When did you become an expert?"
Beast Boy sighs, "One month ago I saw Terra. She was alive and walking. I ran up to her but turns out that she didn't know a thing about her life as a Titan. I tried to get her memory back so that she would remember all of the good times that she had as a Titan, and that she would remember me. She told me to move on and that she was happy with the life that she was having. I haven't seen her since."
"That's sad."
Beast Boy nods his head, "But you know I would have felt so much worse if I didn't try. I now know that Terra is living a good life and that she is happy. If I could go back in time, I wouldn't change a thing."
BG looks at Beast Boy thoughtfully. Maybe it wouldn't be so bad to give it a shot. If it did work out then BG wouldn't have to worry anymore about hiding her feelings. BG smiled. She was going to tell Red X. She just planned on saving his little sisters first.
(This chapter is for the people who were wondering about the relationship between BG and Red X. BG has decided that she is going to confess her feeling after they save Garnet and Capri. Sorry to all the people that wanted another suspenseful and action packed chapter but I needed a break and I thought that these conversations would be good. Next chapter will be them going off to save Garnet and Capri and infiltrating Slade's hangout. Give me a review and please follow me.)
