Chapter Thirteen: The Hunt

Raven stood in shock an hour later looking at Beast Boy. She could not believe she agreed to do it. Her team mates were also shocked and talking about it loudly. Beast Boy looked to be close to passing out right there.

"I can't believe Raven said yes. She agreed to be some little girl's god mother. I mean Raven, a mother that's a scary thought." Raven glared at the group and Beast Boy came to her rescue.

"I think Raven would make and excellent mom. Besides you didn't hear the first part of the conversation. I'm Lilly's god father." That got the reaction he was hoping for. Everyone but Raven fell over in shock at the news that Beast Boy was a god father. Now that was two people who didn't seem right for parenthood having a chance to do just that. "Now if we are done discussing who makes a good parent or not we need to go to the market. If we are going to eat tonight I need veggies, fruits, and some meat for you all." With that he walked off, Raven giving an evil smile to the others as she followed him down the path.

"Raven and BB taken care of a little girl together is a very scary thought. The kid has no chance." Robin and Starfire agreed with a nod as they raced to catch up to the newly appointed god parents. As they neared the market the Titans eyes grew in amazement. It was huge, full of people shouting and talking to one another.

"I think it would be best if we stayed together friends. I do not feel I would be very productive in finding anything in the outside market." Beast Boy laughed at what Star said and answered to her worry.

"Of course Star. I'm not going to send you out on your own. Not here anyway, too many ways things could go wrong not to mention I don't trust most of the men here. My animal instincts go freaking crazy around some more than others."

"What do they say?"

"They tell me to run Rob, they tell me to run as fast as I can. Some of the men, I'm sure were part of my kidnapping as a kid. They are not exactly happy about me being back either. I was too powerful as a kid now as a young adult I'm nearly impossible for them to beat." As they turned the corner they came face to face with a man in his early fifties.

"Garfield, how nice to see you again, oh and look you have friends with you. Oh and a dark beauty is just enchanting. Tell me Garfield is this the one you will call mate one day? I mean I know about your animalistic brain." Beast Boy growled and gave the man a glare colder than any Raven could muster.

"Good Afternoon Dogar, I see you have returned. I'm sure you're up to no good. Did you report to the chief when you came in?"

"Alas, I have not. I was just on my way there." Beast Boy continued to growl and glare at the man.

"Be sure you report, if you do not the Master will come after you. Besides you know nothing about me or my powers Dogar."

"Ah, but Garfield are you not a young master now? And don't be so sure I don't know your powers better than you yourself." With that the man disappeared in a puff of smoke. Raven took a step away from BB. He looked ready to kill the man if he came back into sight. However, it was like it never happened for when he turned back to the others his classic grin was back on his face. Raven was concered the man had said a lot about Beast Boy, stuff even she didn't know about.

'Did that man, just ask if I was going to be Beast Boy's mate?'

'Oh Raven you know you'd like that very much don't deny it.' With that Raven blushed a little red and looked away but listened to what Beast Boy was saying.

"So what would you guys like to eat, I can cook anything in the market."

The Titans returned to the tree hut with lots of eggs and veggies for omelets. Beast Boy showed the girls how to use the kitchen here in the jungle savanna. It wasn't hard to use this kitchen it had been made so even his mother could use it. There was a large fire pit for the fire and several pots and pans to sit on a rack or hang over the open flames. Beast Boy looked up and took a deep breath, someone had just come within smelling distance of Beast Boy's nose. "Oh, the Master is here." He walked over to the door and opened it to reveal the man who had taken him away two months ago.

"You, you're the one who took B." Cyborg looked amazed at the man. "You also got past my security system!" BB shook his head at Cyborg.

"Yes I did, only due to my wind powers. I had to take Garfield away, he was putting you all in danger." The others looked from the master to Beast Boy.

"Is this true BB?" BB looked at Robin and nodded.

"I didn't do it on purpose of course. I mean really who would have thought I could control lighting? Besides I don't know if I'll get to keep the powers or not. The only ones I know for sure are shifting, that came from my illness and healing which is just a copycat effect." Robin nodded to BB and smiled. "Oh and Master, I have some bad news. Dogar is back in the village." The master looked grim and looked around the room.

"Garfield, remain vigilant. He is planning something and I may need help." BB nodded to the Master.

"Of course Master I am ready to fight by your side if needed." The girls had been cooking this whole time and heard nothing of this conversation. Cyborg and Robin were a different story as they looked on in awe of their green team mate.

"I don't think I can look at BB the same after this. How about you Rob?"

"No, I don't think I can." Just then the girls entered the room holding a plate full of omelets.

"Uh, I hope they came out right. I mean you only left the two worst cooks to do it." Raven looked a little worried at the omelets.

The rest of the afternoon was spent with the Titans and the village Master eating the omelets the girls had made.

"This is really good girls." Beast Boy complemented them. They both blushed and the others nodded in agreement.
