HI! Thanks to the people who read and reviewed my story!
Starfire121: I'll try and include Starfire in the story, but I kinda prewrote the fanfiction and there isn't a really big part that includes Starfire. But I'll try to include her in the fanfic more often! I can't really say if the person who saved Beast Boy was Midnight cuz... because it'll ruin the ending, but I wasn't really gonna reveal that until like Chapter 7 but ok...
M0M: I went back and 'polished' the chapters, I hope you like this chapter, too!
Thanks again for reviewing! So, anymore suggestions?... *cricket chirps*
Teenage Hormones
~The next day~
"ACK! What are you doing in my room?" Beast Boy shouted, sitting up in his bed.
He awoke in the morning to find Midnight organizing something on his desk. His screaming startled her so she fell backwards.
"Sorry! I didn't mean to wake you! I-- I thought I'd come in and straighten up your room a bit before you woke up." Midnight told him, helping herself back up.
"But why?" Beast Boy remarked, wishing he could have still been asleep.
"Err… if I had come in here while you were in the gym or something then wouldn't you be suspicious that I was snooping around?" Midnight protested, looking fearful of being fired, again.
Beast Boy laid back down and put the covers over his head. "I'm just going to try to go back to that dream," his muffled voice said coming from the sheets he pulled over his eyes.
"Right, and I'm just going to leave now." Midnight said, walking out of the room and closing the door quietly behind her.
~Top Floor~
Raven sat in an armchair reading her spell book, Cyborg was playing video games (still muttering about how Maeoris kept him from saving the last level), and Robin was (not as usual) helping Starfire with cooking breakfast.
Midnight took a seat next to Cyborg, trying to figure out what was going on in the game. His video game character was a samurai who was being attacked by dinosaurs carrying machine guns. When it looked like he killed off all the lizards, a giant blue squid came out of no where and began hitting him with daggers.
"What is this game, anyway?" Midnight wondered out loud.
"Shhh, must concentrate…" Cyborg replied, his voice sounded a little maniacal.
The samurai character in the video game began punching and kicking the squid. Then he sliced off the squid's head and it fell to the ground bleeding purple goo.
"Can I play?" she asked Cyborg.
"No! My game!" he exclaimed, hugging his controller with a crazy look on his face.
"Alright, alright," she said quietly, standing up and slowly backing away from him.
"Breakfast is ready," Starfire said cheerfully.
Without hesitation, everyone sat down at the kitchen table where there were plates full of food in front of them.
Beast Boy had arrived just in time and took the seat that was left empty, next to Raven.
The whole half an hour they spent having breakfast was silent. Though Starfire and Robin were glancing at each other every few seconds. It became annoying to Beast Boy who happened to notice after the first 15 minutes, "Would you guys just take a picture of each other and stare at those! Photos last longer anyway!" he shouted.
Raven was especially quiet (as usual) and kept her hood on for the whole time. Beast Boy made the mistake of asking her if she had a zit and was trying to hide it, she seemed annoyed and he immediately became quiet. Cyborg had finally stopped muttering about video games and such; Midnight could only assume that he had finished the final level of his Samurai game.
The rest of the day was pretty slow, there were hardly any crime left in the whole city, just a cat stuck in a tree but the fire department took care of that. Robin, Cyborg, and Beast Boy played 3-player video games for 4 hours without breaks, Raven stayed in her room and played slow and dark music while reading poems and spells, Starfire went out shopping, and Midnight was continuing her usual work (cleaning, washing, organizing…?)
The day became dark and the lights of the city made the stars disappear out of the sky. Starfire was sitting next to Robin who was watching TV. Beast Boy and Cyborg had gone to rent movies, Raven went with them because she didn't trust them to rent the right movies. Midnight was no-where in sight; everyone assumed she was dusting one of the lower floors of the tower.
"Hey, we're back with the movies." Beast Boy said as he entered the room.
"Wow, you guys actually agreed on something to watch? It must be the apocalypse." Robin jested.
"It is?" Starfire said in shock.
"No, it isn't. I was just joking." Robin assured her.
"You must not make humor about serious events like that." Starfire told him.
"We didn't exactly agree on only one movie," Raven stated, "If we did then there really would be an apocalypse."
Starfire shuddered. "Not literally, of course." Raven said, attempting to calm Starfire a little.
"So… where's Midnight?" Cyborg wondered out loud.
Robin pondered for a moment. "I think she said she was—"
"—Finished," Midnight said, entering the room. "And exhausted."
"There's your answer." Beast Boy said.
"Hey, you rented movies?" she asked them.
"Yep. Hope you like The Matrix and The Faculty." Cyborg told her.
"Sounds like Neo's going to school." Midnight said, meaning for it to be a joke but since no one laughed she fell silent and stared at the floor… the CLEAN floor. (couldn't help saying that.)
"Hey! I thought you said we got The Hot Chick?" Beast Boy said.
"We did, though I wish we hadn't." Raven sighed.
"So, are we going to play the movies or not?" Beast Boy suggested.
They put The Faculty into the DVD player and just when they got to the part where the kids were going to find out if either the popular girl or the new girl was an alien, the alarm went off.
"Aw man, this was the best part." Beast Boy whined.
The TV screen showed Maeoris at a parking lot, preparing to set fire to a few cars.
"Not her again," Beast Boy groaned.
"I can't believe she broke out of jail so fast." Robin remarked.
Without hesitation the Titans flew/ran to the scene of the crime.
"Didn't anyone tell you that fire and oil don't mix well?" Robin said. (that was cheesier than his last superhero remark… thing. Sorry Robin Fans for making Robin sound stupid, but truthfully I am stupid when it comes to super hero dialogue.)
Maeoris' head jerked toward the super heroes.
She frowned, "Why do you people always have to ruin my fun?"
Anyone could tell that she doesn't have many attack strategies, since she tried to wound Robin first but Starfire knocked her out of the way with her starbolts.
Beast Boy turned into a small monkey and jumped on Maeoris' shoulders, trying to smash out her eye balls back inside her skull with his thumbs. She screamed and tried to shake him off. He hopped down but grabbed her hair so she came down with him. He moved out of the way before she landed on top of him, and changed back to his human form.
"Azurath, metrion, zinthos!" Raven recited.
"Why you rotten--" Maeoris started, but was interrupted when a car landed on top of her.
Raven looked satisfied, convinced that that finished her off.
"Now I know something's wrong. That was way too easy." Cyborg said uneasily.
"That's because you didn't do anything! If you haven't noticed, she could've ripped my head off." Robin exclaimed.
"Starfire saved you once and she saved you again, it's only an easy fight because Maeoris has bad attack patterns." Raven stated.
"That's what you think." Said a dark voice. The car on top of Maeoris exploded into pieces. Robin, Starfire, Beast Boy, Raven, and Cyborg were blown away by the explosion, but only so far.
"It's as easy to defeat me as it is to make a penguin fly." Maeoris said, followed by a villain cackle. She was seemingly unaffected by the car explosion, and probably made it explode some how. (I'm bad at villain dialogue, too, but she's supposed to be stupid, right?)
"But penguins cannot fly." Starfire told them, unaware of the… err… 'joke'?
"Exactly." Maeoris remarked. The claws extended from her fingernails but they did a trick than none of the Titans had seen before, they shot like missiles at each of the Teen superheroes.
Raven easily dodged the claw missile that was aimed at her. Another claw bounced off of Cyborg's metal armor. Starfire used a starbolt to knock her claw out of the way. Robin and Beast Boy didn't have time to steer clear of the claw missiles ready to go through them.
Who could save them now?
Suddenly a large, flat, and rectangular shaped object zoomed past Robin and Beast Boy's eyes, fortunately shielding them from Maeoris' missiles. The shield transformed itself into a broom with buttons on the handle and dropped to the ground. It began vibrating and lifted up in the air. It zoomed back into the shadows of which it came. Everything happened so fast that no one could keep up with what was going on. A figure stepped out of the shadows.
The being was a woman-like creature, covered with brown fur, a tail sticking out behind her. Its yellow eyes glowed in the darkness. Her nose was black like a dog's, her ears were much like a canine's too. She had curly/wavy black hair that looked odd since it was on a wolf-like creature. With a first glance, you could tell she was a werewolf of some sort. The strangest part of her appearance was that she was wearing a Halloween witch costumethat had been ripped up in a few places, possibly during transformation /if/ she was a werewolf.
To anyone that thought they knew a lot about werewolves, this would be a weird situation. Beast Boy, who knew a little bit more about werewolves than the other Titans, had a puzzled look on his face. He glanced at the moon in the night sky. It was only a half moon… then what the heck is wolf girl doing here?
"Its you again." He muttered. He recognized her outfit to be the same one worn by the human that rescued him the last time he and the other titans battled against Maeoris.
"What are you doing here?" Maeoris screeched, turning to the werewolf.
The werewolf didn't reply. She simply pushed a button on the handle of her broom and it changed into a stick. She charged at Maeoris who dodged it. The werewolf turned around and whacked Maeoris in her backside.
"I was doing so well defeating these juviniles then you had to appear, didn't you?" Maeoris said, gritting her teeth.
The werewolf nodded, still silently. She hit Maeoris in the back again, bringing her down. Raven tied Maeoris to the ground with metal poles, using her telekinesis. Starfire melted the bars so that they stuck to the street. The Police came after a few seconds.
"I'll break out of jail again! I swear it." Maeoris declared as the authorities shut the car door on her.
"High five!" Beast Boy said to the werewolf, who just stared at him in silence. He put his hand down and muttered, "Ok, never mind."
"Thanks for helping us defeat that weirdo." Robin said appreciatively to the werewolf. She made a face like this ^_^
"Please, kind stranger, would you mind telling us your name?" Starfire asked the werewolf.
The werewolf simply said, "ARF!" then ran back into the shadows.
"Wait, you didn't," Beast Boy shouted as she left, "tell us your name…" he frowned.
"You know, I thought werewolves howled not go 'arf'." Cyborg thought out loud.
"I think it's time to go home." Robin told them.
"I am exhausted." Starfire stated.
"But we didn't find out who that was…" Beast Boy trailed off as he watched Starfire, Robin, Raven, and Cyborg set off for home. He sighed and followed them in the form of a crow.
~When they got to the tower~
They decided they were too tired to watch the rest of the movies. Beast Boy couldn't help staying awake, thinking about the battle. Who was the werewolf? She looked extremely familiar, except for the wolf-like features. Other than the outfit, he could've sworn he knew her name. And why hadn't Cyborg fought in the battle at all? (because the author's lazy, that's why).
He decided to get up and get a midnight snack. (to lessen the confusion, this sentence has nothing to do with Midnight.)
He walked through the corridors and came across the door to Midnights room. It could've been his imagination when he heard strange sounds coming from her room. He began feeling uneasy. He stood there for a little longer until the sounds stop. They go on for another minute and he decides to ask what's wrong. He knocks on the door and says quietly, "Midnight, is everything ok in there?"
"Yes everything's just fine!" Midnight's voice said through the door. She sounded a little hoarse.
Beast Boy thought for a moment. "Can I come in?" he asked.
"Um… no." Midnight said.
The strange sounds became louder.
"What are you doing in there?" he asked her.
"I'm… uh… watching TV." Midnight stuttered.
He sensed that she was lying. Beast Boy became frustrated and pushed the 'open' button next to her door.
"What are you—" he started, thinking he'd find something strange like Midnight having mutated in some way but stopped in the middle of his sentence as soon as he saw that everything was normal.
"I told you, I'm not doing anything!" she reassured him.
As weird as it sounds, this was the first time Beast Boy saw her room. The walls were white and covered with posters. She had a desk beside the wall near her bed, her back pack rested on top of the desk, and so did her laptop, sketch book, and calendar. Next to her bed was a white end table that had a short cream colored lamp, digital clock, and a telephone. On the left side of the room was a window that covered the whole wall, jean colored curtains were pulled over it. A TV was on her dresser drawer next to a plant and a VCR, and the TV was on, just as Midnight had said. Her bed was a pale light blue color with prints of green leaves and pale blue squares.
Midnight kept her hands under the sheets, but jumped when Beast Boy opened the door.
He gulped quietly, mostly out of embarrassment. "Well… ok, I guess I'll see you later." He said quickly and was about to close the door when Midnight said, "What are you doing up so late?"
Beast Boy looked at the ground. He thought it would sound silly if he told her "I can't sleep."
"I got hungry." He said. He frowned, thinking that sounded even more ridiculous.
"You didn't come here to get a snack did you?" Midnight asked him, raising an eyebrow at him. She frowned like he did, probably thinking her question was something that a dimwit would ask.
"No! Why-- oh never mind." He stuttered.
"Well… alright then, good night." She said. He took that as a cue to get out.
"Yep." Is all he said before he closed the door.
That was embarrassing. He thought as he got to the elevator.
~The Next Day~
Beast Boy slept late the next morning. It was lunch time when he woke up. He made a sigh of relief. No Midnight in his bedroom this morning. He glanced at the clock, and it read 12:40 PM. He groaned, also thinking that Midnight might've come in already to "organize the objects on his desk".
He yawned as he arrived at the kitchen.
"Is breakfast still being served?" he asked groggily.
"No, it's lunch time!" Starfire said cheerfully, sitting at the table. She allowed Midnight to cook lunch today. (allowed?… ok… it sounds like Midnight wanted to cook lunch…?)
"And you came here just in time." Midnight told him. She set a bowl of noodles and rice in front of Robin, Starfire, Beast Boy, Raven, and Cyborg. "I hope you like Chow Mein." She said. (I think that's what Chow mein is… :S… I apologize if I'm wrong.)
Starfire was sitting next to Robin again (hmm, I see a romance developing between these two), Beast Boy was sitting beside Midnight, who was sitting across from Cyborg, and Raven was sitting to the left of Beast Boy. Why that is important? I do not know.
"Is this Chinese food?" Robin asked.
"I think it is." Midnight replied.
"There is a dish on my planet similar to a meal like this one. We call it (names a food that contains noodles)." Starfire states.
Beast Boy stared at his Chow Mein for a moment before tasting them. He suddenly spit out the only forkful he put in his mouth and said, "Ack! Did you put chicken in this?"
Midnight raised an eyebrow (she does that very often, doesn't she?) "Yes, why?"
His eyes widened and he covered his mouth and ran to the bathroom. Midnight frowned and said, "Do you know what that was about?"
"He's a vegetarian, or something." Cyborg replied.
"I believe Beast Boy stated that he will not eat meat because he has been 'one of those animals before'." Starfire told her.
"You mean he's been a chick?" Midnight said. She thought about what she had just said and how weird it had sounded.
"I mean… uh… he's been a chicken?" she restated.
"Isn't he already one?" Raven scoffed.
Beast Boy returned to the table. There was a long pause until, "Why is everyone so quiet?"
Midnight frowned. Beast Boy said apologetically, "Sorry, I forgot to tell you that I was—"
"A vegetarian? Yeah I know." Midnight says, finishing his sentence for him.
"I thought you said he was a chick." Cyborg jeered.

Starfire was sitting next to Robin again (hmm, I see a romance developing between these two), Beast Boy was sitting beside Midnight, who was sitting across from Cyborg, and Raven was sitting to the left of Beast Boy. Why that is important? I do not know.
"Is this Chinese food?" Robin asked.
"I think it is." Midnight replied.
"There is a dish on my planet similar to a meal like this one. We call it (names a food that contains noodles)." Starfire states.
Beast Boy stared at his Chow Mein for a moment before tasting them. He suddenly spit out the only forkful he put in his mouth and said, "Ack! Did you put chicken in this?"
Midnight raised an eyebrow (she does that very often, doesn't she?) "Yes, why?"
His eyes widened and he covered his mouth and ran to the bathroom. Midnight frowned and said, "Do you know what that was about?"
"He's a vegetarian, or something." Cyborg replied.
"I believe Beast Boy stated that he will not eat meat because he has been 'one of those animals before'." Starfire told her.
"You mean he's been a chick?" Midnight said. She thought about what she had just said and how weird it had sounded.
"I mean… uh… he's been a chicken?" she restated.
"Isn't he already one?" Raven scoffed.
Beast Boy returned to the table. There was a long pause until, "Why is everyone so quiet?"
Midnight frowned. Beast Boy said apologetically, "Sorry, I forgot to tell you that I was—"
"A vegetarian? Yeah I know." Midnight says, finishing his sentence for him.
"I thought you said he was a chick." Cyborg jeered.
