Raven

"No," I said surprised he even bothered to ask. "There is just no way," I had to admit the bike was nice. It was a MV Agusta F4 1000 Senna 2006, but looked to have been tricked out to be able to go at much faster speeds. It was black and grey and red and nice. But like I said, there was no way he'd get me on it, and there was also no way I'd wrap my arms around his stomach, clinging to him like some stupid girl.

"Come on Rae, don't dis my baby," I gave him a steely glare. I looked back down at the bike. I didn't want to make things more difficult, but I didn't see why I couldn't be in the car with Cyborg. . . and, unfortunately Beastboy. Then again, I don't think I'd be able to handle his jokes. "It's not like the drive will be long," Once again, I felt my defenses going down. You are such a . . . I took a deep breath and let it out.

"Fine,"

"This is where I draw the line," I stated firmly, giving him a steely glare twice the intensity of the last. He gave me an odd look.

"Rae, you can't wear your cape-" John began.

"It is not a cape!" I interrupted, feeling rather contrary. Didn't he know when to give it up?

"Fine, whatever. Either way it's a hazard. It's not like these clothes are bad. They are normal, which will be a lot nicer on the beach," he paused seeming to have remembered something. "Oh, and I packed a bathing suit so you won't have to worry," I gave a cross look, wishing I could smack his smug expression right off his face. I narrowed my eyes, but grabbed the bundle anyways and stalked off to change.

Robin

I walked in to find John leaning on a MV Agusta motorcycle, though I couldn't figure out what year it was. Raven was nowhere to be seen and John seemed to be spacing out, so I didn't bother to ask, knowing she'd show up eventually. Starfire walked in behind me, well, more like floated, her hands full of things for the beach. Making enough commotion, John turned to us, a grin spreading out on his face. "Hey Robin, do you think we could stop by the street fair?"

"A fair?" Starfire asked, dropping half her stuff, before I could say a thing. I turned to her and all her cuteness.

"Not that type of fair. Its for shopping," I explained. She dropped all of her stuff then clapping her hands and jumping up and down, well, more like floated up and down, because, I guess, for some reason she just didn't want to touch the ground.

"Shall we venture to the fair of shopping and streets?" she asked, excited, her eyes gleaming, seeming to be off in their own world at the moment.

"Absolutely," I said, giving her a warm smile. She hardly noticed. She just went on and on with squeals and giggles and all the other noises that I'm 99% sure were alien.

"Do I want to know?" Raven's voice asked behind me. I turned around and saw her amethyst eyes locked on Star. That's when I took in her outfit. She wore a black t-shirt that hugged her form nicely. She wore jeans that were dark aqua green-ish blue. She wore black ankle boots, that I believe were leather that were buckled up. She noticed my confusion. She glanced away and crossed her arms over her chest muttering, "John said my normal outfit would be a hazard," I blinked a couple of times before looking towards John. He was smirking at Raven.

"We are making a pit stop at the street fair that is going on today," She nodded and opened her mouth to say something.

"Aw, man, we are going to the street fair?" Cyborg asked lumbering in. Raven shut her mouth and looked at Cyborg.

"That's a bad thing?" Raven asked, raising an eyebrow in that elegant way she always does. Cy whirled at her but froze when he saw how she was dressed. Also noticing him, she threw her hands up in the air. "Really? You too? What, am I not allowed to wear different clothes occasionally?" There was a small edge to her voice but it was not anger, more of frustration. John cleared his throat.

"We should probably get going," he said, a stupid grin on his face.

Starfire and I walked hand in hand through the fair. There was quite a few people, but not enough to make the place crowded. We passed little tables full of everything you can find: Sunglasses, phone cases, clothes, jewelry, hats, food, etc. Starfire looked at each one like buried treasure. A couple of times she dragged me off to one of the vendors, but she hadn't seemed to really want anything yet.

"Dude!" I heard Beastboy yell from somewhere ahead of us. Him, John, and Cyborg were looking at stuff together. Raven had said that she didn't want to wander around, scanning rip-offs that she wouldn't buy. Her words not mine. She had dropped John off then rode on his motorcycle the rest of the way to the beach. I had had no clue that she knew how to ride. I shook my head, sad that there was so little I knew about her.

"You," someone, who sounded rather old, called out. I ignored it, figuring the old woman was talking to somebody else. "Son of Bat," she hadn't yelled it like she had the last time, but it was loud enough to make me hear it and freeze. How did she know? We all had even changed so that we looked nothing like our usual selves. Both Beastboy and Cyborg were wearing holorings. How. Did. She. Know.
