Chapter 1: Banana Split
Ch 1: Banana Split
Disclaimer: Don't own Teen Titans, The Legend of Zelda, or Poke'mon. Never have, never will. I have no money, so don't sue me. Oh, and the bad guy and Cyborg's new online chat friend are mine, so don't use'em. MINE!!!!
Starfire sighed, staring down at her blothgloriet ring. She wondered if it was the right thing to do, to give this away. Would he participate in the Blothglor ceremony? She wasn't sure of it at all. This ceremony was a most important one to her race, and a refusal to participate on his part would be devastating on her part. The ceremony was all about love... She was scared that he did not return her love. Starfire lay back onto her bed, staring up at the ceiling. "Will he say yes? Will he agree? ........ I don't know!" She twirled the ring between her fingers, staring at it intently. "I must have courage!" She decided, sitting up again. "I will ask him now! ...... Before I lose this courage that I have just gained...." She jumped up and ran out of her bedroom, heading intently towards Robin's room. "NOOOOO!!!! Sonofa-!" Cyborg's voice echoed down the hall, followed by a very load crash. "I LOST AGAIN!!!" Starfire entered the living area intently, her quest for love momentarily forgotten by the intrigue for the commotion. The room was in shambles. Carnage was everywhere. It was great. Starfire gasped. "Cyborg! Where are you!? CYBORG!!!!" She scanned the room, and found him glaring at the huge flatscreen TV on the wall. He spurted out some obscenities at the screen as an IM message came up on the screen:
Dragon: You're pretty good. For a loser. :P There's that tag team tourney coming up. Shall we kick ass? Or are you afraid?????
Cyborg's anger grew a bit, but it was overshadowed by excitement. "Tag Team huh?"
Cyborg: Sounds like a grand old time, man. One thing though. I AM NOT A LOSER. NEW GAME!!! RIGHT NOW, RIGHT HERE!!!
"He's been like that ever since he found that online gaming partner this morning. He and that guy have been going at it all day. It's definitely getting to his nerves. He didn't even notice those were tofu dogs at lunch!" Beast Boy stood beside her shaking his head. "It's sad man. He has lost all of his social life." Starfire nodded. "This is extremely strange behavior for Cy- OH! I have to talk to Robin!" She started her trek towards Robin's room again, hopefully without any distractions this time. She stood in front of his door, suddenly self conscience of her self. She hesitatingly knocked on Robin's bedroom door. "Robin? .... May I... come in?" No answer came. She opened the door and peered in. The room was dark other than a small lamp on a table in the middle of the room. Robin was bent over it, staring intently at various maps and objects scattered across it. "I will find you Slade.... "Ummm... Robin?" She twirled a piece of hair nervously as she entered the room, shutting the door behind her. "Can I ..... converse with you for a short time? ..... Please....?" She took a few steps towards him, feeling very uncomfortable and nervous. This was her only chance; Star didn't feel that she could dredge up the courage to face him later. "I'm busy, Star..... I'm trying to figure out where Slade will strike next......" Robin mumbled, mostly to himself. He drummed his fingers on the table distractedly. "But it's extremely important!" Star began to babble on. "I was wondering ..... Well.... Would you be my Blothglor!!?" She bowed her head and held out the Blothgloriet ring in her outstretched palms. Robin mumbled for across the table. Starfire's heart suddenly seized in her chest as dread fell on her. "Robin? Do you need time for an answer?" She squeezed her eyes shut, afraid to even look at him, as she shook from fear. She wouldn't be able to handle waiting for an answer very long. Robin sighed. "Look Star, I don't have time for any of your holidays today. Please leave me alone right now, okay? I'm working on a lead with Slade." He never even looked up from his work. Star's eyes grew wide and filled with tears, and her shoulders shook with despair. The ring dropped from her hands, clanging to the floor as she ran out of the room. She didn't stop until she was safely shut in the sanctuary of her own room. The tears streamed down her face, turning her eyes red and staining her cheeks in salty tracks. Star dropped to the floor, sobbing in despair. "I... I have failed in the Blothglor Tradition!!" Her hands covered her face, all color draining from her skin. "The refusal... of the.... Blothgloriet Ring.... Is instant.. EXILE! I am to never see my family or friends again..." She let out a moan. "All alone... forever... Not again..." She pulled out her flower covered bag, and stuffed clothes and a couple of trinkets into it. She wiped her tears away, depression sinking in. She would always be alone now... Her people's laws decreed it. She slowly picked up her bag, staring at her favorite picture of all the Titans together. "Once one chooses a Blothglor.... One becomes bound to them... If that bond is broken... one becomes a soulless monster... full on hatred and jealousy. One is not fit for society without love... They are fit for nothing but their own loneliness..... I must travel before the transformation is complete." She sniffed. "Goodbye, dear friends. May you find your Blothglor and have their acceptance." Star detached her communicator and let it fall to the floor. She shuffled out her door, and out of the Titans life.
The next afternoon...
BREEEEEEEEECK! BREEEEEEEEECK! WARNING! WARNING! BREEEEEEEECK! BREEEEEEECK!
Robin sped into the main room as the screen brought up a map showing the wear the crime was taking place. Raven, BB, and Cyborg were close behind him. "Sensors indicate a highly explosive and unstable quantity of illegal substance situated in the abandoned mines 30 miles outside of the city. Explosion is probable." The computer droned in a toneless voice as Robin cursed quietly to himself. "This has Slade written all over it! Come on Titans, let's go!!" He turned the door, and something caught his eye. Or, rather, the lack of something caught his eye. "Where's Star?" They all shrugged. "We haven't seen her since yesterday when she went to your room...." BB said. "You didn't do something to scare her did you? Did she see walk in on you?! Oh, our poor, poor Starfire!!!" BB fainted dramatically. "THAT'S NOT FUNNY!!!" Robin growled and punched BB in the head. "I'll see if she's in her room. You guys go on ahead and check out those mines. We'll catch up." The others nodded and ran out of the room. He started off towards Starfire's room. Robin thought back to Star's plea the other day. At the time he thought it was just another one of the many "joyous" holidays from her home planet. But after looking back on the scene, all the signs pointed elsewhere. She was too tense, and not nearly excited as she should have been. He was too focused on his search for Slade that he was completely ignoring what Star had to say. He knew Star was easily depressed, even though she did not show it. It was that knowledge that made them close. After the Red X incident, he began telling her of his frustrations, and taking comfort in her company. They had both confessed many of their closely guarded secrets to each other. Hers was the many sleepless nights she had do to constant self-doubt. She left her family after some sort of incident, and found her way to earth, seeking, and finding, companionship and acceptance. He saw first hand how she viewed rejection when she went through a transformation that made her look very.... different for awhile. (I know!!! I am such a geek!) He should have thought before he spoke before. Maybe that was his problem. He doesn't think about her enough, or the rest of the Titans. The tower was getting very messy and ....disgusting. He thought the fungus in the fridge got up and moved the other day, and he was pretty sure that rash he found on his ass this morning was from the fact that the toilet hasn't been cleaned in a long time. Saving the city leaves little time for leisure, and less time for household chores. Food for thought.... His feet reached Star's door, and he knocked tentatively. "Star? You in there?" ................ Silence answered him. "Star?" He opened the door. Darkness met him. She wasn't there. He knelt down and picked up her communicator. "Did you leave again?"
"Think you guys can handle it without me? Something happened to Star, and I'm going to start working on a lead I found." He held up a ring for them to see over the mini screen. "Raven's in charge." "Right Robin. We'll see you later." Raven turned off the communicator, and turned to her comrades. "Star's missing.... Again?" BB exclaimed. "Why is she doing this? I mean, Cyborg doesn't smell that bad!" He received a punch in the head from Cyborg. "That is not our problem right now. We have to deal with this first. The mines are unstable, and it goes on for miles. We need to find that bomb before it blows half the city away." She gestured them to follow. "The mine splits into two paths somewhere middle, so we'll have to split up. If you reach the exit of your tunnel before I do, find the other exit. They're about 2 miles apart from each other, coming out from the other side of the mountains. If you find the bomb, deal with it. Our communicators won't work that far underground. Got it?" They boys nodded. "Let's go!"
Robin sat at the computer endlessly searching through a database of ceremonial rings. So far none of them have even come close to the ring he found by the door in his room. Who new Star's race had so many ceremonial rings? They were almost abundant as their friendship holidays. Robin sighed. "Well it wasn't any of the friendship rings.... Maybe..." He gulped. ".... The GlorBloth... ring of eternal hatred..." He clicked on the link to the picture, and sighed in relief. "They only have one hate ring, and this is definitely not it... But... What about this... Blothgloriet... Ceremonial love ring..." Robin's pale complexion turned stark white. He nervously stared at the picture link for a minute, totally at a loss for words. This wasn't a... wedding ring, was it? He clicked on the link. He bit his lip. This ring was the closest to Star's that he has found today. The basic design was about the same, but their some fundamental differences: their wear three tiny blue stones instead of two, and it was made out of white gold, not actual gold. "Computer.... Description please." "Ceremonial Love Ring. Given by a female to a male that she loves. Acceptance means that he returns her love, either as a friend or as a possible mate. After acceptance is made, a ceremony is held to establish the bonds of love. Refusal of the ring means exile from Family and Friends. The female must either move to different living city or live totally alone, depending on whether the ring was for love or friendship. Each family has a different style of ring to indicate their family heritage." Robin looked down at the ring. "I exiled her..." He cursed to himself. She not only left out of shame and rejection.... She had to leave by her race's beliefs. The thing was, was she asking for love in a friendship or real love.... In a ..... mate. He never thought of that before. He cared for Starfire very much, maybe even than the others. But.... Mate...? He had no idea what to think about that. He never thought about it all before. "Computer, bring up surveillance videos containing Starfire since yesterday morning." A list came up showing times and places. "Breakfast.... Then she was holed up in her room for the rest of the morning. That's not like her.... Wish we had cameras in there despite the lack of privacy.... She left mid afternoon... Stopped and watched Cyborg lose online fro about five minutes.... Went to my room...." Robin's eyebrows rose. She had stood in front of his door for almost and hour, with many tries at knocking and chickening out. She finally went in, only to burst out of the room a few minutes later eyes in tears. She tore done the hallway towards her room. "I.... am an asshole." (No shit Sherlock.) He kicked himself mentally. Focusing so much on Slade has ruined his personal life. What little one he had. He was growing into Batman. And he didn't like it. "I'll make it up to you Star...." He watched as she ran out of her room carrying a pink bag, and heading towards the door. She turned only once, when she reached the exit. Looking up into the camera, he could clearly see her mouth goodbye. Star then took off into the sky, heading towards the western horizon. "Alright, Star.... I'm coming for you!"(Soooooo.... Cheezy..... Can't Take IT!)
Raven flew through the rabidly decreasing mine. Nowhere could she see enough room for a bomb as big as what the computer sensed. The mine was not more than a narrow shaft steadily heading into the earth. A truck may be able to fit here, providing it wasn't one of the huge diesel monstrosities one sees everywhere on construction sites. This was very strange. These mines may be more than just old and abandoned as she previously thought. Something more was going on here.... She stopped abruptly when the shaft suddenly widened into a large cavern. It was very dark, and only the glow of the flashlight on her communicator and the gigantic machine in the middle of the room gave off light. The machine had several tanks full of some liquid that glowed slightly in the dark. The bomb buzzed and whirred slightly, clicking to itself as if it was thinking to itself. A huge screen sat facing her, a cursor blinking on it. A voice accompanied the words that began to appear on the screen, sounding like a cute rabid Pokemon. Heya! See you found my Bomb!! Congrats at making it here before it blew. I am disappointed that there is only one of you. Limits my fun a bit, you see. "Who are you?" Raven asked evenly, staring coolly at the screen. Her hands crackled slightly with the energy she began to gather. Now, Now.... You do that I just my blow it up now!!! Raven's eyes narrowed as she dissipated her balls of energy. She hated these enemies. The ones that liked to play with their minds while all the while holding millions of innocents over her, their lives balancing on the amusement of these villains. "What do you want?" she asked, trying to show no emotion. She was determined not give this idiot what it wanted to see. This hidden being that loved toying with its prey, relishing in causing fear, anger, frustration and hopelessness made he steam with anger. There have been too many villains like that nowadays. She refused to give it what it wants. Awwww.... Did I piss you off? Now... This Bomb puts a damper on your day, does it not? Well, I propose a fun little game!! What say you? Wanna play?! "......... Do I have much of a choice in the matter? Let's get this over with." Raven crossed her arms, tapping her foot lightly. GOODY!!! Let's play.... I know!!! My favorite video game, THE LEGEND OF ZELDA!!! . You are Link! A large sword shot out from the machine, skidding on the ground to a stop at Raven's feet, as a large mechanical arm handed her a bow, aquiver full of arrows, and a long green hat complete with wig and pointy ear add-ons. "- - You have got to be kidding...." (Nope, I'm not. This is gonna make for a hilarious picture late on though.) Raven held the cape and accessories, and stared dumbfounded at the screen, her eye twitching. Nope! Put it on or I'll blow up the city!! ...... Isn't this fun? Oh! I forgot! We have to have a Zelda, don't we? ....... Lookie what I found!!! Cyborg was dropped to the floor, dressed in an oversized Princess Zelda dress and blonde wig. He was bound with chains and drooling. "Cyborg...? --; Great. Where's Beast Boy?" Raven asked, slightly exasperated as she fiddled with the hat and ears attachments. She picked up the sword as the annoying voice answered. Oh, he's that stupid fairy Navi. Another arm threw BB against a wall. He slumped to the ground, snoring slightly, and dressed in a light blue dress with blue fairy wings I had to drug them though. It'll take them 'till morning to wake up. But you couldn't get any help from them any how. Zelda and Navi were totally useless in the game. This is gonna be such fun! Oh, yes, since we'll be skipping to the final battle, from the Ocarina of Time series by the way, I'll be Ganondorf transformed, the monster GANON!!! A loud growl came from behind her. Raven's eyes widened, and she turned around slowly. A huge, living, breathing replica of the monster smiled at her, blowing foul smelling breath into her face. The beast was at least a story tall, with extreme muscles and a mouth full of sharp jagged teeth. A long, deadly sword was held in each massive hair covered fist. "Shit....." Behind her, the computer laughed maniacally.
End Chapter 1!! Yeah!! What'll happen??? I sure as hell don't know!

The beast was at least a story tall, with extreme muscles and a mouth full of sharp jagged teeth. A long, deadly sword was held in each massive hair covered fist. "Shit....." Behind her, the computer laughed maniacally.
End Chapter 1!! Yeah!! What'll happen??? I sure as hell don't know!
