Part 5: let the games begin

(Okay! It's day three already. There was not too much excitement after lunch yesterday, so This time, Starfire slept in the bed while Robin slept on the foot, which was another night in torture for the both of them, Beast Boy and Ani both slept in the fish tank AGAIN! Raven's getting more flexible about the lucky five, and the other four, well, they're fine! Now, to morning, where everyone but a few choose to sleep in)

Raven: Where's your friend, Beast Boy?

Beast Boy: She's awake. She's looking for stuff to eat.

Robin: Ow! My back! I gotta find a spare bed!

Raven: Didn't you have a bed ready for Nightingale when you thought she was your roommate?

Robin: Well, I just forgot! Where are you going Beast Boy?

Beast Boy: I have to wash off. We slept in the fish tank again.

Raven: That explains the weird scent going around the room.

Robin: Go ahead. We already have someone digging around in the fridge.

Beast Boy: Thanks guys.

Raven: anything to get rid of the fish smell.

(Beast Boy leaves for the bathroom, when Ani comes in the room as a leopard, carrying food on her back)

Ani: I cannot believe you guys enjoy sausages! Where'd Beast Boy go?

Robin: To get rid of the fish tank smell.

Raven: Shouldn't you?

Ani: Oh, yeah! Someone else can look for more food. Bye guys!

(Ani leaves for another bathroom, when Cyborg, Tin, and Rick show up. Rick is actually smiling)

Cyborg: Where are our little shapeshifters off to?

Robin and Raven: Showers

Rick and Tin: *snicker* No better time!

Raven: What?

Tin: Well, we thought we'd have a little fun by putting blue dye in the shower water.

Robin: Not again!

(Uh Oh! Seems like Cyborg and his big sister are getting into a little trouble! Let's see how Beast Boy and Ani react)

Beast Boy: (turns on shower) Hmmmm... (eyes are closed) Something's weird around here.

Ani and Beast Boy: (in different rooms) I don't know what's strange, but there is something not right here. Oh well!

(Ani turns on shower)

Ani: (turns into fish when tub is full) Hey! There is something fishy going on here besides me! I can't see in here! (turns back into human) OH NO! NOT AGAIN! (runs out in a towel) GUYS!

(she finds everybody giggling)

Tin: Nice color. Did you swim in cold water?

Ani: (looks down at herself, blue all over)

I'm Blue! GRRR! Hey! Where's everyone else?

Robin: everyone else is still sleeping. But, Rick is attending to Beast Boy. *laughs*

Ani: NO! Beast Boy! (runs into Starfire on her way to Beast Boy) EEEP! sorry, Star! (continues running) BEAST BOY! (voice fades off. Everyone is left laughing, including Starfire, who has no idea what's funny. When Ani gets to the bathroom, Rick has his head to the wall, his hand moving from side to side)

Ani: Rick! What are you doing?

Rick: Working a little temprature change. A-Hah! Got it!

Beast Boy: (in the bathroom) AGH! Hot water!(Rick turns his wrist halfway to the other side, then repeats as many times as he can) EEEP! Cold water! Hot! Cold! Hot! Cold! AAAAA! I'M BLUE!

Rick: That's just what I wanted to hear.

Ani: Not him too!

Beast Boy: (barges out of the bathroom in a towel, and sees Rick laughing)

Beast Boy: what was THAT for?

Rick: I haven't laughed like that in years!

Beast Boy: ANI!!!!!

(ani pops up behind Rick, still in a towel, looking aggravated)

Beast Boy: Oh No! Not you too!

Ani: (turns into tiger and slashes at Rick, whose laughter increases, only to find out that oddly colored tigers make everyone laugh)

Rick: (laughs as he walks away)

Beast Boy and Ani: NOW IT'S ON!

(Now, it's getting good. BB and Ani want to show that they don't get fooled around with easily)

Beast Boy: Are the ropes secure, Ani?

Ani: Secure! *giggle*

Beast boy: Perfect! What colors did we use?

Ani: Green and Purple!

Beast Boy: Excellent! Now with all these traps, EVERYONE will be sorry they laughed.

Ani: I added a special touch for making my skin clash with my outfit! I added a touch of blue. They'll learn that blue doesn't go with Purple and Green!

Beast Boy: (looks at her dreamily) I looooove the way you think. *gasp* Someone's coming! HIDE!

(Ani and Beast Boy turn into lizards and look on from the ceiling)

Robin: HELLO! Ani! Beast Boy! We're sorry we laughed at you! It wasn't our idea!

Starfire: I didn't know what everyone was laughing about!

Raven: Please don't make me angry, and FORGIVE US!

Ani: (whispers) Yes! Three at a time!

Beast Boy: (dreamily) Thanks for teaching me how to speak in animal form!

Ani: Stay focused! Here they come. 3...2...1...JUMP!

(the three look up as Ani and Beast Boy come hurtling down from the ceiling in dog form)

Raven: There you are!

(all run and try to catch Beast Boy, while Ani kicks a rope)

All three: Come here you... AAAAA!

(a rope net lifts Robin, Starfire, and Raven off the ground, pinning them to the ceiling. Beast Boy and Ani do secret handshake. Raven can take no more)

Raven: That's IT! Azarath Me... Mph!

(Beast Boy pulls on another rope, dumping a whole lot of green, purple and blue gelatin over their heads)

Ani: HAHAHAHAHAHA!

Beast boy: SWEET! Bon appetite!

Starfire: I wish I didn't laugh. I deserved that this time. *cries*

Ani: three down, five to go!

(OOOOO! The mischief!)

Ani and Beast Boy: (running away) That was great!

Beast Boy: Stop! We don't wanna...

Ani: I know. This is where the next trap is.

Beast Boy: And I hear giggling in the distance! Hide!

(same ol' trick. Ani and Beast Boy stick to the ceiling and look down upon Tin, whose holding a recently shot photo of them recently dyed blue, and Nightingale, and Supernova, who had just heard, were giggling nonstop)

Ani: GRRRRR!

(all three look up, to see two blue lizards)

Beast Boy: JUMP!

(this time, they land in cat form)

Tin: Get 'em!

(Ani kicks off a rope, releasing the net, this time pinning them to the ground, and Beast Boy pulls another rope, releasing onto them green, purple and blue jelly beans)

Ani: Enjoy!

Nightingale: What? We only just heard about it!

Ani: Now we've got something special for the two leading men!

Beast Boy: See ya!

(both turn into cheetahs, while the other three struggle)

Tin: I'm never going to do that again!

Ani: (while running) So, you ready for trap three?

Beast Boy: Never been more ready, babe. It's just that I've been meanin' to ask you something.

Ani: Ya, know, I'd love to hear what you're to say.

Beast Boy: (dreamily) Really?

Ani: Of course! But after we nail Cyborg and Rick.

(they stop running)

Beast Boy: OK! (under his breath) Darn!

(This is REALLY getting good!)

Ani: Where are they?

Beast Boy: (turns into bat) I can't hear a thing. (morphs back) So! While we're waiting, want to hear my question?

Ani: Okay! What did you want to ask me?

Beast Boy: *blushes* Well, um, there's, um...

Ani: WAIT! I hear something! It'll hafta wait.

Beast Boy: Awww! Just when I was ready!

Ani: Hide! (pulls Beast Boy up to the ceiling with her)

Beast Boy: Whoa!

Ani: SHH!

(Rick and Cyborg came in sullen-faced)

Beast Boy: That's weird! They're supposed to be happy!

Ani: I noticed.

Cyborg: I think we were a bit to harsh on them.

Rick: Yeah. Wouldn't it have been better to use our common sense and have fun some other way?

Cyborg: Uh-Huh! Kinda like a comedy video instead.

Rick: Not that common.

Ani: Wow. I didn't know!

Beast Boy: There's only one thing left to do.

Ani: I love the way you think.

Beast Boy: I know! JUMP!

(Ani and Beast Boy fall down upon them unawares. Rick falls over backward, kicking a rope. Instantly, all four of them are pinned to the wall with a net. Ani reaches for the second rope, pulls, and all four of them are covered with green, purple, and blue gelatin, jelly beans, and various articles of Ani's and Beast Boy's clothing)

Ani: *cough* We didn't put those in!

Cyborg: We know! I did!

Ani: What! How...

Rick: We saw what you did to the others.

But, we really are sorry!

Ani: So, do you want to ask me something?

Beast Boy: We're going to a dance tomorrow. You wanna go with me? *blushes*

Ani: *smiles* I thought you'd never ask! Cyborg: OOOOHHH!

(back in BB's room) Beast Boy: Do you mean to say that you wanted to go with me all along?

Ani: Of course! It's just that I sensed your fear, so I thought I'd go along and let you face it. That's how you learn!

Beast Boy: Did I sound stupid?

Ani: You've got to stop thinking about other people's reactions! That's a formula for overcoming self-consciousness!

Beast Boy: You didn't answer.

Ani: Answer it yourself. I like you. You're a nice guy! How can you go wrong if someone likes you?

Beast Boy: *dreamily* answer it yourself.
