Trapped In The Tower!
Chapter 1!

Rhubarb rhubarb blah blah blah! In short, the power goes out and there's a really huge flood and they're trapped in their tower! The only outside they have is the roof, but strangely enough the tower is leak proof, so they still live inside! Will they run out of food or anything like that? Hopefully you will read enough to find out! Tempers flare and shit happens! BAD shit! Some comedy, because Starfire is dumb and Beastboy is fun!

-Titan's Tower, the common room, where the Titans sit in the dark-

There must be someone still out there! said the somewhat less that fearless leader, Robin. If we can only-
There's nothing we can do, Robin. replied the shady Raven. Other than assess the problem, we've done all we possibly could. Finally, the somewhat unaccustomed Starfire partook in the conversation: Why do the lights not work, Robin? I feel quite uncomfortable in all this darkness.
The power's down, Star. I have no idea when it'll come back on, but I'm sure it won't be before the water goes down.
What? Why not? boomed the partially artificial Cyborg. It's only water! You're not afraid of water! You can turn into a shark or a Plesiosaur, but none of us can!
The bantam shapeshifter Beastboy merely turned towards the half-mechanical behemoth and said, Dude, it's got all kinds of dead sewer stuff in it! It's nasty! Turning away, the smallish hero continued fixing his flashlight. Seriously! I could get cancer or something in that stuff!

Approaching the metal brute and the elflike boy, Robin suggested a possible plan: Why don't we go to the roof? It's quite possible that one of us could find some other people by flying around over the city.
The large semi-robot turned down Robin's plan, saying Nobody's gonna fly in that weather, Robin. The wind keeps changing direction, blowing faster than any of us can fly.
And what of the Justice League? asked Starfire, looking hopefully at Robin. It's possible that they too survived the flood, and they may be able to help us.
That wouldn't be possible, Starfire; answered Raven. Even if they're in the same situation as us, their headquarters is far too short to break the top of the water.

With his flashlight finally on, the lightly-built Beastboy said, We've gotta do something, Raven. If we're going to wait this thing out, we'll need to prepare... I say we sort the food and divide it into rations.
In answer, there was onecomment: As much as I regret saying it, Beastboy's right. The dark telekinetic walked over to the couch. We have no idea how long this flood will last, and we don't know how long our pantry will hold out. We've got to do something.
