Chapter 3: Showdown in the Sushi Bar
Location: Titan Tower Time: 1:30 PM
It was a week after the events at the Gas Depot. Raven had finally had her injures healed and was feeling great. Yet, she felt a strange feeling every time she thought about the boy named Taylor. She was in her room, meditating, when she started to think of him again. She then since Starfire walking by and called to her." Hey, Starfire". " Yes" Star said as she opened the door." Can I talk to you?" Raven asked. " Of course my friend" Star answered and sat next to her.
" You remember when that boy Taylor saved me?" Raven said " Yes. I do." Star replied. " Well, when he was telling us about his life, I was trying to read his mind, but I couldn't get anything out of his mind to see if he was telling the truth." Raven said. Star then said "Yes, go on." " Well, also, I keep on thinking about him practically all the time." Raven said. Star then starred at her happily and said, "Oh Raven! You finally feel it!" "Feel what?" she said. "Why you are feeling, you know, feelings for him!" Star replied smiling.
Raven than got the message. She said" Yeah, sure! I probably just feel I have to pay him back somehow. I once had feelings for Beast Boy and I'm pretty damn sure I got over that." Just then, BB was coming, screaming," I won! I won! I won!," He then tripped on the hall floor, crashing into the wall ahead." See what I mean." Raven added as she and Starfire went out top what BB was yelling about.
The others had also went to see BB. Terra was helping him up as he started" Everyone." You wouldn't believe what happened!" " What happened?" Cyborg asked." Well, I won a radio contest a day ago and got $500 in the mail today!" "Great job!" Terra exclaimed. "I'm gonna treat you all to lunch!" "Great. So where are we going." Robin asked." There's this sushi bar I heard about that's pretty good, so I thought we go there." "Sure," Cy started," We'll take my car." "Cool, let's go." BB said. And so they headed toward the garage, yet Raven felt that she would meet Taylor soon.
The Double Dragon Sushi Bar, Jump City 1:40 PM
The team walked into the restaurant. It was about the size of a 1 story house with low tables with no pillows for chairs, a counter for service, and two doors in the back. An old Japanese man in a green suit came to the counter." May I help you?" He asked. " Yes, table for six please." BB said." Of course," the man said," Aldona! Seat our guests please." And old Japanese woman in a yellow and red kimono dress walked out the door. "Follow me please." She brought them to an table and took their orders. As they sat down, BB noticed that there weren't many people there." Business seems slow." he said. " Yes," the woman began," But, we manage." She smiled, bowed, and left through one of the doors. After a few minutes, a waiter came in with meal trays, loaded with food. His face was hidden, yet Raven recognized the voice." Here's your meals" the waiter said. "Taylor?" she asked. "Raven? Guys?" He put down the trays on the table and there was Taylor. " What are you all doing here?" We came for lunch." Raven said. "That's nice." It was then that Star noticed that Raven was looking at him strangely. She tapped her on the solder and got her out of the trance she was in. "What are you doing here ?"Robin asked. "This is where I live and work. It's cool and those two are very nice to me."
Just then, three men walked in. They were large, Asian men wearing leather jackets and they had tattoos on the left sides on their faces in the image of a Japanese shogun. The lead one approached the counter and banged his fist on the counter." Eno! The boss wants his money!" I told you, I'm not giving it to him." The old man said. No one notice one putting a suitcase under a table." That's not good enough, man! Give us the money, now!" Robin went to get up, but Taylor then said" Wait. I'll handle this." He went and got a cup of tea." Your not drinking this, BB, are you?" BB shook his head. Taylor took the cup and went over to the guys." Hey asshole." He said. The leader turned around and said" What?" "Have some tea" and with saying that, he threw the hot tea into the man's face. He screamed as the tea burned his face and Taylor delivered a crescent kick to his chin, knocking him backwards. The other one took out a knife and started to slash it in front of him. Taylor dodged them, hit him in the gut, and threw him into the wall. Just then, the third one took out a shotgun and yelled" Suck lead, bastard." Raven quickly chanted" Azarath, Metreon, Zinthos!" This wrapped the gun in black energy and knocked it from his hands as Taylor roundhouse kicked him right in the face.
The bandits got up and ran off." This isn't the end!" the leader yelled as he ran out of the door." It is for know!" Taylor yelled back. As the team got up, Robin said" You said you knew kung-fu, but I didn't know you were that good." "I train a lot" he replied. He went of to Raven and said" Thanks for the save back there." Raven then realized he was talking to her" What? Uh...Oh. You're welcome. I guess were even." "Yes. I guess we are. Well, I got to get some stuff out back. See you all later" "Bye" the team said as they paid their bill and left. But just as they got a few feet away from the building, an explosion ripped through the building knocking them backwards.
Taylor was also thrown back. He watched in horror as the restaurant burned. Then, a face of pure anger spread on his face. He walked a few blocks to a dumpster and opened a secret compartment in a wall next to it. He reached in and took out a dufflebag and a sword hoister." This time, they've gone to far." He said under his breath and walked out into the city.
Getting suspenseful, isn't it? Well, I'll have Chapter 4 up soon. Send in those reviews and I'll see you all soon.
