"Titans Go!" Robin shouted, jumping up into the air with his usual spin kick. Starfire and Cyborg immediately followed him, Beast boy remained behind, still unable to move from the ribbons and bows he was wrapped in. "A little help?!" Beast boy shouted, however unheard. He began to gnaw rapidly at his bindings.
"Don't you guys ever throw in the towel?" Blackfire mused as she hurled a violet energy ball straight at Robin. Jinx did a cartwheel out of the way from Cyborg's sonic cannon, which in turn wound up blasting the newly freed Beast boy. "Must be your lucky day!" Jinx cackled as Beast boy coughed and sputtered.
The battle continued to rage on for a number of hours. Robin launched a heavy barrage of punches and kicks at Cinderblock who responded by gripping the boy wonder and smashing him into the City Square Christmas Tree. "Robin, NO!" Star shouted as she flew over to his resting-place, broken balls of glass and electric wires lining the floor around him. "Aw too bad." Jinx laughed once again. Mumbo waved his magic wand, which turned into a handkerchief he used to dab pretend tears with. "It seems your act has come crashing down." Beast boy looked annoyed "Dude, enough with the show puns already!"
The four villains began to surround the heroes so they couldn't escape. "Isn't this great?" Blackfire asked, a fiendish grin on her face. "I'm going to have the best holiday ever, and your about to loose, with no family or anything." Each of the evil doers began to cackle (excluding Cinderblock) as Star let out a yelp and Beast boy jumped into Cyborg's arms in the form of a scared puppy. "There's still one more piece of this family you forgot." Came a booming voice from behind. Raven stood no more then ten feet from the group, her eyes glowing bright white. Robin revived enough to give off a big smile as Beast boy got down from Cyborg's arms. "Azarath...Metrion...Zynthos!" she shouted, black and white lights burst from the tips of her fingers. Some of the lights surrounded the garland on the street lamps. In a flash, it had constricted itself around Mumbo Jumbo, making him unable to move, a "Do not open before x-mas!" sticker covered his mouth, making him unable to mutter any magic words. Cyborg and Robin leapt to their feet. "I still got the sonic if you still got the boom." Cyborg chuckled as Robin removed an exploding disk from his trademark utility belt. They both jumped in a circular motion, Cyborgs sonic blast caused the exploding disk to combust sending a surprised Cinderblock flying halfway across town. Starfire and Blackfire continued their spat of sibling rivalry up in the air. "Give it up already!" Blackfire commanded, sending a barrage of glowing energy balls towards Star. Starfire managed to weave through most of them, retaliating with a few starbolts of her own. "I always was the better...AH!" Blackfire never got to finish, a large starbolt struck its target, causing Blackfire to tumble to the ground, out cold. "Merry Christmas big sister, even though you tried to kill me and my -family-I still enjoyed your visit!" Star giggled. "Azarath...Metrion...Zynthos!" Raven shouted. Glass balls in black and white lights began to fly at Jinx as she attempted to best avoid them. "Must be tough, all alone, no family for the holidays, no use for it, no one who cares!?" Jinx mocked as she leapt out of the way from more attacks. "You're not to different from me." Raven paused for a moment. "If they care about you, and you live with them...aren't they your family?" She heard a little voice in her head repeat over and over again. "There's one thing that I have, you don't!" Raven pointed to a street lamp, which uprooted itself and wrapped itself around Jinx. "My family at Christmas." Jinx looked at Raven who was now smiling widely. "Bah-Humbug!" she muttered. Raven flew over to where her new found family stood. "I knew you'd come around." Robin said, Star practically in tears. "Dude!" Beast boy cried, running over and hugging Raven, then backing off with an innocent face. Raven only smiled. "You are my family, because you do love me, and that's what Christmas is all about." Cyborg patted Raven's shoulder, "C'mon, let's go home, it's already late Christmas Eve." Raven starred for a min, then turned to Beast boy. "I need your help with something." She said fast, grabbing Beast boy and dragging him along before he had time to protest. *******************Later that night:********* Melissa watched quietly out her bedroom window. She let out a big sad sigh, turned to her bed and plopped down. Hugging her Santa teddy close she began to hum "Ill have a Blue Christmas", tears streaming down her face. "They were right." She whimpered. Suddenly she sat up and began to listen hard. She could definitely hear it, sleigh bells. Melissa looked out her window, and gave a great whoop of joy. She pointed and hollered "I knew it! I knew it!" Up in the sky a small red sleigh flew through the air, a large GREEN reindeer pulling it along. Black and white lights surrounded the small vehicle as the red dawned passenger waved to the little girl at the window. Up on the sleigh, the Red cloaked Raven wore the biggest smile anyone would ever see her wear in a lifetime. She cracked the reigns and in a flash they had dissapeared. Across the street, on another roof, Robin, Cyborg, and Starfire stood watching the excitement. Robin gave a small little nod to himself as the sleigh disappeared. "Merry Christmas!" he whispered.
Wishing you the very best and brightest of the holiday season and a very happy New Year!
