I'm really, really sorry to all those who think it's a crossover with Yu-gi-

head and wasn't even thinking about the evil guy from that show! Please
forgive me, if anyone has problems, please e-mail me and tell me, I'll
change the name. But you're right, Starfire does know him, but how?
That's for you all to find out.
riderfan01: AHH!! SORRY!!!!!! I haven't been to my e-mail in a while and it shut down on me! If you want to, I restarted it so you can try again. Please try again ^_^; Anyway, I'm sorry to say, but Yu-gi-oh isn't going to twist in with my story. SORRY!! I hate to make you disappointed, but it'll be better, I SWEAR!!!!

Robin sighed in irritation. How they managed to get Starfire to stay in his room was beyond his comprehension. After the mysterious kidnapper incident, they all agreed that Starfire should stay in one of their rooms, with one of them; for protection and because her room was a disaster zone. Everyone assumed she would end up with Raven, both being girls, but the dark arts master had declined, saying that she would never get any sleep with Starfire in her room. Beast boy snored like a monster and Cyborg's electronics would keep her up all night. So, that left him. He had no other choice than to agree, it was that or she slept in the main room and he was not about ready to let her be left alone.
He glanced over to Starfire, who at the moment, was sleeping in his bed. He was sitting in a chair across from the bed, cross-legged, with his hand holding up his chin, "What have a gotten myself into?" He asked himself when he suddenly heard the sheets shuffle around.
Sitting up straight, he looked over to see Starfire thrashing around. His brow furrowed and he stood, walking to her side. Now towering over her, he looked down and shook her shoulder, "Star, Star. Wake up." He whispered.
Her eyes flew open and she sat up, rigid, almost hitting Robin in the face. Looking wildly around, she tried to figure out where she was. Moments later, she caught sight of Robin and relaxed, "Robin?" She asked, "Where am I?"
"You're in my room." He stated calmly and pulled up a chair next to the bed.
"Oh," She paused for a minute, "Why am I in your room?"
Robin fell out of his chair.
When he managed to climb back into it, he stared at her, disbelieving, "Don't you remember?" She shook her head, "You were attacked by some oogly- boogly, creepy man (fingers wiggling like claws and eyes go beady) and you don't remember?!" He exclaimed.
Be happy. . .
"I remember that." She laughed, as though Robin was a child, putting too much concern on something.
Come on let's go get it on!
He scratched his head in confusion, "Wha. . .then why aren't you worried?"
Be happy. Be happy. . .
"Because you promised to protect me." She smiled softly.
Come on let's go get it on!
He sighed and leaned back in his chair, "And you trust me that much?"
Be happy. . .
Smiling brightly, she responded confidently, "Yup!" Robin covered his face with a hand, sighing, but under his hand, he hid a small smile.
Everybody let's go have some fun!
I don't want to waste my time on simple little things
I'd rather stay here all the night with happy boys who sings
Come on let's go get it on, everybody let's go have some fun
Robin is practicing in the gym, using the punching bag. On a bench nearby is Starfire, wearing comfy gray pants and a purple tank top. She is cushioned by a warm blanket and watching Robin. Seeing that Starfire is watching him so closely, Robin tries to do his best moves. He backs up and runs at the punching bag, jumping into a flying sidekick half way. As he reaches the bag, instead of kicking it, he flies right by and hits the wall. Robin lands in a head on the floor with swirls in his eyes. Starfire runs to his side and bends down, asking if he's ok. Sitting up, he laughs nervously and blows it off. Starfire begins to giggle furiously and Robin smiles, laughing for real as well.
I've got a feeling you could use a little smile,
Hoping you could stay there for just a little while
Making a lot of noise up there, throw your hands up in the air
Cyborg and Starfire are in the main room, both sitting on the sofa. He's teaching her how to play video games while playing against her. As he tells her what to do, she's pressing the buttons with a confused face. After a bad move, he puts the game on pause and shows her what to do. Starfire smiles and nods, understanding. Cyborg resumes the game and they continue. After a little while, the screen goes wild and Starfire looks horrified. She thinks she's broken Cyborg's game and turns to apologize when she sees his stunned, repulsed face. When she asks what she did wrong, he tells her she won the game. Blinking in confusion, she looks back to the screen where the name 'Cyborg' is replaced with 'Starfire'. She sighs in relief and thanks him for the game, preparing to get up and leave when Cyborg catches her arm, begging for a rematch. She declines and yawns, planning to go rest when the other Titans appear. Beast Boy is immediately drawn to the screen where he sees Starfire's name and taunts Cyborg. Raven shrugs and goes to her book and Robin looks at Starfire who smiles and leaves.

The team, minus Starfire, is out. They're stopping a hostage situation and since she's sick, she's forced to stay back at the Tower. She looks at the clock, which says 8:03 PM. The others left around 4 PM, and ever since, she's been waiting for them. Starfire looks to the corner where she sees a large basket of dirty laundry, her friends' clothes from previous battles. She sits up and walks over to it, pulling it up and taking it with her to the cleaning room. Since she has no clue how to get the robots to work, she does it herself. After an hour or so, she returns back to the main room with a basket of fresh, unfolded laundry. Starfire looks at the clock and sighs before moving her feet to the kitchen. She works on making some plain meat loaf, for the reasons that her friends strongly dislike her home world cooking. As it's in the over, she folds the laundry and neatly sets it out for the others. Her meat loaf is done and she turns to oven to low, keeping it warm. Starfire returns to the window, sits on the floor and leans against it. Soon, she can't help but fall asleep.
Happy boys and happy girls, will be
We are the happy boys and girls
Happy boys and happy girls, will be
So happy, yeah! so, so happy, yeah!
It is close to 11 PM when the rest of the Titans return home. They are all tired, weary and starving. Beast Boy's nose picks up something and he runs to the kitchen to find a meat loaf in the oven. Saddened that it's meat, he notices that there is a vegetarian plate next to it. He jumps for joy and Cyborg comments on the fact that there are no dishes to clean. Raven is looking around when she sees the clean laundry, nicely folded on the couch. She picks up one of her cloaks and is secretly pleased that it has no wrinkles present. Everyone comes to the conclusion that it was Starfire who did this, but all wondered where she was. Robin catches a glimpse of red by the window and checks it out. He's mildly surprised to find Starfire sleeping there, but smiles and picks her up. Everyone crowds to make sure she's ok, but Robin assures them that she's just sleeping. He takes her to his room and tucks her into his bed. When he turns to leave, her hand lashes out and gasps his. Robin, startled, turns to find her still sleeping. With a sigh of relief, he slowly pries her hand off before returning to the others and joining them for a late, late dinner.
Happy boys and happy girls, will be
We are the happy boys and girls
Happy boys and happy girls, will be
Oh yeah, so happy. . .
Robin and Starfire are outside on the roof of the Tower. They're lying on their backs, looking up at the stars. Robin is pointing upwards and tracing constellations with his hands. Starfire is watching his hand as he moves and she nods with excitement, seeing the shape he's traced out. She points to a large white streak in the sky, asking what it is. He tells her it's the Milky Way and what it's made of. She comments on how pretty it is and Robin agrees, but he's not looking at the sky, he's staring at Starfire. When he realizes what he's doing, he quickly turns away, blushing bright red. Starfire sits up and walks to the edge of the tower, gazing at the lit up city. Robin soon joins her and notices how she's rubbing her arms. He quickly removes his cape and places it over her shoulders. She smiles brightly, thanking him. He scratches his head and laughs nervously. She lays her head on his shoulder and he freezes, going red as a tomato. Slowly, he brings his arm down and around her shoulder. The two spend the rest of the night watching the city sparkling.
Try with an eagle it will make you look so nice
And if you start to warm, you can further break the ice
come on let's go get it on, everybody let's go have some fun
Beast Boy is running around the kitchen with a white apron covered in food. Starfire is sitting on a nearby stool, instructing him as he's going along. She points to a slip of paper in her hands and he runs up to her, reading it closely. He holds up a measuring cup with a questioning look and she nods. He lights up and sets it down, rushing to get a different object. He pulls out a bag of flour from one of the cupboards and giver Starfire the same look as before. She gives him a thumbs up and he comes back to her side. Carefully, he opens the flour and turns it over immediately. Surprised, nothing comes out so he shakes it up and down. Starfire shrieks in alarm for him to stop when flour suddenly comes pouring out, creating a white smoke in the kitchen.
I've got a feeling you could use a little smile
Hoping you could stay there for just a little while
Making a lot of noise up there, throw your hands up in the air
When it clears, Beast Boy and Starfire are both stark white and surprised. Moments after her shock, Starfire begins laughing, soon followed by Beast Boy. Later, Beast Boy is holding a baking sheet in his hands with over- sized oven mitts on his hands, standing before Raven, Robin and Cyborg. Starfire is still sitting on her stool behind him, both still dirty from their cooking. The other three Titans peer down at the sheet nervously to see a tray of cookies. Nervously, they each take one and bite into it. After a long, silent moment, all three agree that the cookies are tasty. Beast Boy gleams and sets the tray down, thanking Starfire. She nods her head and says she was glad to help. As Raven and Cyborg are commenting to Beast Boy, Robin creeps over to Starfire and compliments her. She declines and says it was all Beast Boy but Robin just smiles.
I don't want to waste my time on simple little things
I'd rather stay here all the night with everyone who sings
The Titans are all clustered together in the main room, all watching the large TV. Raven is on one end, with Starfire next to her, followed by Robin, Cyborg and lastly Beast Boy. They have four large bowls of popcorn scattered amongst them and are slowly eating as they watch a movie. It appears to be a horror movie and when the villain strikes, Starfire and Beast Boy both jump. Starfire clings to Robin's arm, cowering away from the screen while Beast Boy accidentally knocks one of the popcorn bowls out of his lap. It goes flying across the room and spills. . .all over Raven. Everyone freezes in horror as she sits silently. No one wants to make a move in case she decides to kill the morpher. Suddenly, a slightly giggle is heard. The boys look to Starfire in horror as her giggles turn into a full laugh. She is holding her sides painfully as tears fall from her eyes. And then, a pig flew. Raven begins laughing as well. The two girls are leaning against each other for support and popcorn is falling out of Raven's hair onto Starfire. Still laughing, Starfire grabs the bowl between herself and Raven, takes a handful and throws it. The small bits land all over the boys who are still in shock. When Raven levitates a good portion of the bowls' contents and sends it at them, they snap out of it. Robin grabs a bowl and begins throwing it at the girls. Cyborg and Beast Boy are arguing over the last bowl when it tips and goes over both of them. They start to pick up pieces and toss them at each other. The movie is now forgotten as they have a popcorn war.
Happy boys and happy girls, will be
We are the happy boys and girls
Happy boys and happy girls, will be
So happy, yeah! so, so happy, yeah!
Starfire is a large room all alone. She's painting on a canvas with an assortment of colors beside her. In the corner, there's a stereo hooked up and it's blasting loud music. Starfire is swiping her brush delicately across the canvas with small strokes. The door behind her hisses open and in the doorway is Raven. She looks at Starfire with a blank, yet wondering stare. She comes up beside the Tamaranian and asks her about the music. It isn't happy, light music, but not heavy metal either. It is a deep, slight rock song that Raven normally listens to. She is surprised to hear Starfire listening to it and even more surprised with her painting. It's of a cloudy sky with a single red rose in a grassy field. Starfire says painting like this is what makes her feel better. Painting emotions is what she likes. After an awkward silence, Starfire motions to an empty canvas nearby and asks if Raven would like to join her. Agreeing, she picks up a brush and starts stroking on the white canvas. Neither seem discomforted by the silence, they both like it.
Happy boys and happy girls, will be
We are the happy boys and girls
Happy boys and happy girls, will be
Oh yeah, so happy. . .
The Titans are all at the park. Starfire is back to wearing her normal clothes, but still confined to sitting and relaxing. Cyborg and Beast Boy are in an open field, tossing a football back and forth. Raven is up in a tree, reading one of her books and Robin and Starfire are sitting under the tree Raven is in, on a picnic blanket with a large basket beside them. Starfire is sitting with her legs folded under her and setting out the food. Robin is stretched out with his hands under his head like a pillow. The two are talking softly when Beast Boy misses a catch and the football goes hurdling towards Starfire's face. Cyborg yells to her, but since she's Starfire, she doesn't understand and looks around. Only when it's too late does she see the spinning ball coming towards her face. She closes her eyes tightly, but no pain is felt. Starfire opens her eyes to see Robin's hand holding the football about a foot away from her face. He frowns and throws it back, telling them to be more careful. Starfire sighs in relief and thanks Robin who returns to his lying position.
Young and old
Be happy. Everyone. . . Be happy
I'm sure you could. Be happy. . .
'Cause happy boys and happy girls is around the world
Robin and Starfire are in Robin's room, watching another movie. The two are sitting relatively close, sharing a bowl of popcorn. Starfire is enjoying the show while Robin is barely keeping his eyes open. As Starfire slips another piece into her mouth, she suddenly feels a heavy object land in her lap. She freezes and slowly looks down. Sighing, she finds it's only Robin's head; he's fallen asleep. It's then that she realizes it's ROBIN'S head. Her face goes from a tan orange to tomato red. After a minute of not moving and blushing, she relaxes and pulls a blanket over Robin. As the movie progresses, Starfire slowly lulls herself to sleep and leans back. Later, Robin begins to wake up and looks around. When he discovers he's been sleeping on Starfire's stomach, he bolts up and shoots away from the bed. Starfire shifts and curls up into a ball from the lack of warmth. Robin chuckles and takes the blanket, covering her up. He moves to his extra sofa and sets up his bed for the night.
Be happy. . .
Come on let's go get it on!
Be happy. . .
Everybody let's go have some fun!
Be happy. . .
Come on let's go get it on!
Be happy. . .
Everybody let's go have some fun
The Titans are at the Zoo. They walk together through the exhibits, Beast Boy is changing into the various animals. He turns into a tiger as they pass the tigers and people all around go running, thinking a tiger has escaped. He quickly changes back and they continue on. Cyborg teases Beast Boy into changing into a rabbit, so he does. He doesn't know he's outside the cheetah pit and a clawed paw lashes out, almost catching him. He quickly morphs back and starts yelling at Cyborg while everyone is laughing. Starfire has brought her camera and takes various pictures of her friends. She takes one of Beast Boy as a monkey hanging in a tree with other monkeys, one of Raven standing in front of bats with her blank look, Cyborg being splashed by a dolphin and one of Robin arguing with a wild goose for stealing his lunch. She also fins someone to get a group picture of them all with the wolves. Raven is sitting calmly on the ground with a wolf curled up beside her, Cyborg is playing tug-o-war with a wolf who detached his arm, Beast Boy is being chased by several wolves, Robin is calmly petting one wolf who's sitting for him and Starfire's playing with a couple wolf cubs, all piled on her lap.
Happy boys and happy girls, will be
We are the happy boys and girls
Happy boys and happy girls, will be
So happy, yeah! so, so happy, yeah!
Robin and Starfire are alone in the bird exhibit. It's a tropical, humid atmosphere and there are birds flying everywhere. Starfire manages to get a picture of Robin frowning unhappily at the camera with birds perching all over him. She laughs as he attempts to swat them away but they keep coming. When he finally manages to get them all off, he looks at Starfire who is petting a multicolored parrot that has perched on her finger. She is talking to the bird as though it was a person and more birds are flying around her, wanting the attention the parrot is getting. While Starfire is playing with the parrot, Robin sits down on a rock and watches. A small bird hops up to his side and he glances down to it. The bird chirps and hops to his foot. Robin lifts his foot and shakes it, hoping to loose the bird. It flies off but then goes to his head. He glares at the bird and tries to swat it away, but it refuses to leave him alone. Finally, he gives up and lets it sit on his knee and chatter. As he looks at the bird, he finds it's not an exotic bird but a common robin. Starfire has now left her circle of birds and joins Robin. She looks at the little bird and strokes its head with one finger. It chirps in delight but the two teens stand and head for the door. The bird follows them and Robin yells at it, trying to make it go away. Starfire giggles as they meet a man at the door who is the keeper of the birdhouse. He tells them the bird doesn't belong in there and Starfire asks Robin if they can keep the bird. He agrees, reluctantly, and they meet up with the others, the bird perched on Robin's shoulder with Starfire cooing all the way.
Happy boys and happy girls, will be
We are the happy boys and girls
Happy boys and happy girls, will be
Oh yeah, so happy. . .
Robin is under the T-ship (made up. Their air-ship for flying long distances), repairing some wires. Starfire is sitting off to the side with the little bird beside her. She is talking to Robin who responds from under the ship. He comes out covered with grease and oil and is holding a socket wrench in his hands. He glares at Starfire who is now laughing her head off from the sight of Robin. He takes a towel and wipes away the grease from his hands and face, but it doesn't do him much good. Starfire is still laughing so Robin begins to advance on her. She sees what he's doing and stands, hoping to make a break for the door. Starfire tries to run, but because she's sick, it shorts out and she stumbles forward. She braces herself when two hands come around her waist. She turns around to see Robin's dirty face etched with worry. He asks if she's alright and she says she is. He sighs in relief before he begins to tickle her sides. Starfire begins laughing and pleading for him to stop but a sneaky grin creeps onto his face. He continues the assault and she closes her eyes from laughter. When he finally lets up, she opens her eyes to find her face inches away from him. Both blush but don't move. Slowly, Robin releases his grip and backs off. Neither speak as they exit the storage room and walk down the hall back to their rooms.
Be happy. . .
The Titans are out shopping for the day. Cyborg and Beast Boy are in the game store, looking at new games to play. Both find one they like and show it to each other. They start sharing the best features of their own games and it soon becomes a shouting contest.
Come on let's go get it on!
In a bookstore, Raven is flipping through a black book with the word 'poetry' scribed on the cover. She looks up when she hears the shouting and sweatdrops, pointedly ignoring them.
Be happy. . .
Robin is in the movie store, checking out the latest action movies. He has a few in his hands, contemplating which one to get.
Everybody let's go have some fun!
He looks up and sees Starfire wandering through an accessory store across the way. She's poking through a few necklaces and studying them carefully.
Be happy. . .
Robin smiles and randomly chooses one of the movies in his hands, throwing the rest on the shelf without even seeing which one he's chosen. Quickly he pays for it and begins to cross the mall to the store Starfire's in.
Come on let's go get it on!
Starfire moves on to the make-up, which sees never seen before and takes a tube of lipstick, carefully inspecting the color and touches it. She's surprised when a red film is left on her finger. A store clerk comes to the counter and Starfire looks up, curious. She's an old woman, in her fifties, with graying hair.
Be happy. . .
"I don't think that color is very fitting for you, sweetie." She said warmly and took the tub from Starfire.
The Tamaranian titled her head curiously, "What is this red paint-stick?" She asked.
The woman chuckled, "Paint-stick? Honey, this is lipstick."
"Oh," Starfire blinked, "What is 'lipstick'?" She asked.
Once again, the woman laughed, but when she noticed Starfire was being sincere, she stopped and sighed, "I don't know where you've been living but lipstick-"
She was about to continue when a young girl, possibly Starfire's age stepped up next to her and cut in, "Excuse me," She snapped, "I wouldn't like to know which shade looks best." She held up two tubs of lipstick for the woman to see.
The clerk studied the two curiously before pointing to the one on the left, "I believe the 'moonshade' would be best." The girl applied the cosmetic and stood waiting for an opinion, "Perfect, what about you honey?" She asked Starfire.
The girl turned to Starfire with a raised eyebrow and crossed her arms, "Why would anyone want to cover their natural beauty?" She asked.
"You can talk, miss 'cherry lips'." She snorted and whirled around to face the cashier, "I'll take it." As the woman took her money, Starfire examined the jewelry nearby. She found a pretty silver chain necklace with a diamond heart pendant and picked it up.
"What a pretty stone." She whispered.
"It's called a diamond." A voice stated calmly.

Was it good enough? Please review! I really want to put up my next chapter, but I need some feedback to see how people like it! Thanks!
Once again: Sorry to those who thought Yu-gi-oh was going to be a part of this! He's not and I didn't mean to trick anybody, SORRY!!!
The song 'Happy Boys and Girls' was done by Aqua and a really good song at that!
The last scene was a spoof of a scene from 'Justice League' with wonder woman and this lady putting on cover-up or something. It was such a cool scene!

He scratches his head and laughs nervously. She lays her head on his shoulder and he freezes, going red as a tomato. Slowly, he brings his arm down and around her shoulder. The two spend the rest of the night watching the city sparkling.
Try with an eagle it will make you look so nice
And if you start to warm, you can further break the ice
come on let's go get it on, everybody let's go have some fun
Beast Boy is running around the kitchen with a white apron covered in food. Starfire is sitting on a nearby stool, instructing him as he's going along. She points to a slip of paper in her hands and he runs up to her, reading it closely. He holds up a measuring cup with a questioning look and she nods. He lights up and sets it down, rushing to get a different object. He pulls out a bag of flour from one of the cupboards and giver Starfire the same look as before. She gives him a thumbs up and he comes back to her side. Carefully, he opens the flour and turns it over immediately. Surprised, nothing comes out so he shakes it up and down. Starfire shrieks in alarm for him to stop when flour suddenly comes pouring out, creating a white smoke in the kitchen.
I've got a feeling you could use a little smile
Hoping you could stay there for just a little while
Making a lot of noise up there, throw your hands up in the air
When it clears, Beast Boy and Starfire are both stark white and surprised. Moments after her shock, Starfire begins laughing, soon followed by Beast Boy. Later, Beast Boy is holding a baking sheet in his hands with over- sized oven mitts on his hands, standing before Raven, Robin and Cyborg. Starfire is still sitting on her stool behind him, both still dirty from their cooking. The other three Titans peer down at the sheet nervously to see a tray of cookies. Nervously, they each take one and bite into it. After a long, silent moment, all three agree that the cookies are tasty. Beast Boy gleams and sets the tray down, thanking Starfire. She nods her head and says she was glad to help. As Raven and Cyborg are commenting to Beast Boy, Robin creeps over to Starfire and compliments her. She declines and says it was all Beast Boy but Robin just smiles.
I don't want to waste my time on simple little things
I'd rather stay here all the night with everyone who sings
The Titans are all clustered together in the main room, all watching the large TV. Raven is on one end, with Starfire next to her, followed by Robin, Cyborg and lastly Beast Boy. They have four large bowls of popcorn scattered amongst them and are slowly eating as they watch a movie. It appears to be a horror movie and when the villain strikes, Starfire and Beast Boy both jump. Starfire clings to Robin's arm, cowering away from the screen while Beast Boy accidentally knocks one of the popcorn bowls out of his lap. It goes flying across the room and spills. . .all over Raven. Everyone freezes in horror as she sits silently. No one wants to make a move in case she decides to kill the morpher. Suddenly, a slightly giggle is heard. The boys look to Starfire in horror as her giggles turn into a full laugh. She is holding her sides painfully as tears fall from her eyes. And then, a pig flew. Raven begins laughing as well. The two girls are leaning against each other for support and popcorn is falling out of Raven's hair onto Starfire. Still laughing, Starfire grabs the bowl between herself and Raven, takes a handful and throws it. The small bits land all over the boys who are still in shock. When Raven levitates a good portion of the bowls' contents and sends it at them, they snap out of it. Robin grabs a bowl and begins throwing it at the girls. Cyborg and Beast Boy are arguing over the last bowl when it tips and goes over both of them. They start to pick up pieces and toss them at each other. The movie is now forgotten as they have a popcorn war.
Happy boys and happy girls, will be
We are the happy boys and girls
Happy boys and happy girls, will be
So happy, yeah! so, so happy, yeah!
Starfire is a large room all alone. She's painting on a canvas with an assortment of colors beside her. In the corner, there's a stereo hooked up and it's blasting loud music. Starfire is swiping her brush delicately across the canvas with small strokes. The door behind her hisses open and in the doorway is Raven. She looks at Starfire with a blank, yet wondering stare. She comes up beside the Tamaranian and asks her about the music. It isn't happy, light music, but not heavy metal either. It is a deep, slight rock song that Raven normally listens to. She is surprised to hear Starfire listening to it and even more surprised with her painting. It's of a cloudy sky with a single red rose in a grassy field. Starfire says painting like this is what makes her feel better. Painting emotions is what she likes. After an awkward silence, Starfire motions to an empty canvas nearby and asks if Raven would like to join her. Agreeing, she picks up a brush and starts stroking on the white canvas. Neither seem discomforted by the silence, they both like it.
Happy boys and happy girls, will be
We are the happy boys and girls
Happy boys and happy girls, will be
Oh yeah, so happy. . .
The Titans are all at the park. Starfire is back to wearing her normal clothes, but still confined to sitting and relaxing. Cyborg and Beast Boy are in an open field, tossing a football back and forth. Raven is up in a tree, reading one of her books and Robin and Starfire are sitting under the tree Raven is in, on a picnic blanket with a large basket beside them. Starfire is sitting with her legs folded under her and setting out the food. Robin is stretched out with his hands under his head like a pillow. The two are talking softly when Beast Boy misses a catch and the football goes hurdling towards Starfire's face. Cyborg yells to her, but since she's Starfire, she doesn't understand and looks around. Only when it's too late does she see the spinning ball coming towards her face. She closes her eyes tightly, but no pain is felt. Starfire opens her eyes to see Robin's hand holding the football about a foot away from her face. He frowns and throws it back, telling them to be more careful. Starfire sighs in relief and thanks Robin who returns to his lying position.
Young and old
Be happy. Everyone. . . Be happy
I'm sure you could. Be happy. . .
'Cause happy boys and happy girls is around the world
Robin and Starfire are in Robin's room, watching another movie. The two are sitting relatively close, sharing a bowl of popcorn. Starfire is enjoying the show while Robin is barely keeping his eyes open. As Starfire slips another piece into her mouth, she suddenly feels a heavy object land in her lap. She freezes and slowly looks down. Sighing, she finds it's only Robin's head; he's fallen asleep. It's then that she realizes it's ROBIN'S head. Her face goes from a tan orange to tomato red. After a minute of not moving and blushing, she relaxes and pulls a blanket over Robin. As the movie progresses, Starfire slowly lulls herself to sleep and leans back. Later, Robin begins to wake up and looks around. When he discovers he's been sleeping on Starfire's stomach, he bolts up and shoots away from the bed. Starfire shifts and curls up into a ball from the lack of warmth. Robin chuckles and takes the blanket, covering her up. He moves to his extra sofa and sets up his bed for the night.
Be happy. . .
Come on let's go get it on!
Be happy. . .
Everybody let's go have some fun!
Be happy. . .
Come on let's go get it on!
Be happy. . .
Everybody let's go have some fun
The Titans are at the Zoo. They walk together through the exhibits, Beast Boy is changing into the various animals. He turns into a tiger as they pass the tigers and people all around go running, thinking a tiger has escaped. He quickly changes back and they continue on. Cyborg teases Beast Boy into changing into a rabbit, so he does. He doesn't know he's outside the cheetah pit and a clawed paw lashes out, almost catching him. He quickly morphs back and starts yelling at Cyborg while everyone is laughing. Starfire has brought her camera and takes various pictures of her friends. She takes one of Beast Boy as a monkey hanging in a tree with other monkeys, one of Raven standing in front of bats with her blank look, Cyborg being splashed by a dolphin and one of Robin arguing with a wild goose for stealing his lunch. She also fins someone to get a group picture of them all with the wolves. Raven is sitting calmly on the ground with a wolf curled up beside her, Cyborg is playing tug-o-war with a wolf who detached his arm, Beast Boy is being chased by several wolves, Robin is calmly petting one wolf who's sitting for him and Starfire's playing with a couple wolf cubs, all piled on her lap.
Happy boys and happy girls, will be
We are the happy boys and girls
Happy boys and happy girls, will be
So happy, yeah! so, so happy, yeah!
Robin and Starfire are alone in the bird exhibit. It's a tropical, humid atmosphere and there are birds flying everywhere. Starfire manages to get a picture of Robin frowning unhappily at the camera with birds perching all over him. She laughs as he attempts to swat them away but they keep coming. When he finally manages to get them all off, he looks at Starfire who is petting a multicolored parrot that has perched on her finger. She is talking to the bird as though it was a person and more birds are flying around her, wanting the attention the parrot is getting. While Starfire is playing with the parrot, Robin sits down on a rock and watches. A small bird hops up to his side and he glances down to it. The bird chirps and hops to his foot. Robin lifts his foot and shakes it, hoping to loose the bird. It flies off but then goes to his head. He glares at the bird and tries to swat it away, but it refuses to leave him alone. Finally, he gives up and lets it sit on his knee and chatter. As he looks at the bird, he finds it's not an exotic bird but a common robin. Starfire has now left her circle of birds and joins Robin. She looks at the little bird and strokes its head with one finger. It chirps in delight but the two teens stand and head for the door. The bird follows them and Robin yells at it, trying to make it go away. Starfire giggles as they meet a man at the door who is the keeper of the birdhouse. He tells them the bird doesn't belong in there and Starfire asks Robin if they can keep the bird. He agrees, reluctantly, and they meet up with the others, the bird perched on Robin's shoulder with Starfire cooing all the way.
Happy boys and happy girls, will be
We are the happy boys and girls
Happy boys and happy girls, will be
Oh yeah, so happy. . .
Robin is under the T-ship (made up. Their air-ship for flying long distances), repairing some wires. Starfire is sitting off to the side with the little bird beside her. She is talking to Robin who responds from under the ship. He comes out covered with grease and oil and is holding a socket wrench in his hands. He glares at Starfire who is now laughing her head off from the sight of Robin. He takes a towel and wipes away the grease from his hands and face, but it doesn't do him much good. Starfire is still laughing so Robin begins to advance on her. She sees what he's doing and stands, hoping to make a break for the door. Starfire tries to run, but because she's sick, it shorts out and she stumbles forward. She braces herself when two hands come around her waist. She turns around to see Robin's dirty face etched with worry. He asks if she's alright and she says she is. He sighs in relief before he begins to tickle her sides. Starfire begins laughing and pleading for him to stop but a sneaky grin creeps onto his face. He continues the assault and she closes her eyes from laughter. When he finally lets up, she opens her eyes to find her face inches away from him. Both blush but don't move. Slowly, Robin releases his grip and backs off. Neither speak as they exit the storage room and walk down the hall back to their rooms.
Be happy. . .
The Titans are out shopping for the day. Cyborg and Beast Boy are in the game store, looking at new games to play. Both find one they like and show it to each other. They start sharing the best features of their own games and it soon becomes a shouting contest.
Come on let's go get it on!
In a bookstore, Raven is flipping through a black book with the word 'poetry' scribed on the cover. She looks up when she hears the shouting and sweatdrops, pointedly ignoring them.
Be happy. . .
Robin is in the movie store, checking out the latest action movies. He has a few in his hands, contemplating which one to get.
Everybody let's go have some fun!
He looks up and sees Starfire wandering through an accessory store across the way. She's poking through a few necklaces and studying them carefully.
Be happy. . .
Robin smiles and randomly chooses one of the movies in his hands, throwing the rest on the shelf without even seeing which one he's chosen. Quickly he pays for it and begins to cross the mall to the store Starfire's in.
Come on let's go get it on!
Starfire moves on to the make-up, which sees never seen before and takes a tube of lipstick, carefully inspecting the color and touches it. She's surprised when a red film is left on her finger. A store clerk comes to the counter and Starfire looks up, curious. She's an old woman, in her fifties, with graying hair.
Be happy. . .
"I don't think that color is very fitting for you, sweetie." She said warmly and took the tub from Starfire.
The Tamaranian titled her head curiously, "What is this red paint-stick?" She asked.
The woman chuckled, "Paint-stick? Honey, this is lipstick."
"Oh," Starfire blinked, "What is 'lipstick'?" She asked.
Once again, the woman laughed, but when she noticed Starfire was being sincere, she stopped and sighed, "I don't know where you've been living but lipstick-"
She was about to continue when a young girl, possibly Starfire's age stepped up next to her and cut in, "Excuse me," She snapped, "I wouldn't like to know which shade looks best." She held up two tubs of lipstick for the woman to see.
The clerk studied the two curiously before pointing to the one on the left, "I believe the 'moonshade' would be best." The girl applied the cosmetic and stood waiting for an opinion, "Perfect, what about you honey?" She asked Starfire.
The girl turned to Starfire with a raised eyebrow and crossed her arms, "Why would anyone want to cover their natural beauty?" She asked.
"You can talk, miss 'cherry lips'." She snorted and whirled around to face the cashier, "I'll take it." As the woman took her money, Starfire examined the jewelry nearby. She found a pretty silver chain necklace with a diamond heart pendant and picked it up.
"What a pretty stone." She whispered.
"It's called a diamond." A voice stated calmly.

Was it good enough? Please review! I really want to put up my next chapter, but I need some feedback to see how people like it! Thanks!
Once again: Sorry to those who thought Yu-gi-oh was going to be a part of this! He's not and I didn't mean to trick anybody, SORRY!!!
The song 'Happy Boys and Girls' was done by Aqua and a really good song at that!
The last scene was a spoof of a scene from 'Justice League' with wonder woman and this lady putting on cover-up or something. It was such a cool scene!
