Chapter 3: The Test
Cyborg woke up early the next morning. He walked into the kitchen and smiled at the two girls who were still asleep. "Morning y'all!" He yelled as loud as he could. Shadow shot up and tried to grab onto the arm of her chair, but missed and fell off the chairs. "WHA!! Ow!" She yelled as she hit her head on the floor. Cyborg sat there and started to laugh his head off. Raven sighed as she walked by. "This is pointless." She passed the idiots and walked onto the roof. Shadow rubbed her head. "Ow...that was a little mean don't you think?" She asked Cy. "Yeah...sorry for laughing." He helped her up. "So what's for breakfast?" After about 10 minutes Hawk shot up. "YOUR EVIL!!!....wha....oops..." She got up and sat by Shadow. "What did I miss?" She asked. "Me falling out of the chair and hitting my head." Shadow replied. Beast Boy walked in and blushed as he saw Hawk, but he continued to get his food. Starfire looked at Beast Boy confused. "Robin? Why does Beast Boy turn red?" She asked. "It's a blush Star." Starfire looked at Robin more confused. "Not now Star...it's too early." Starfire quite talking and started to eat. Cyborg turned and looked at Shadow and blushed. 'Why do I blush when I see her......do I love her?' He asked himself. Cyborg's thoughts were interrupted by Robin. "Ok after breakfast we will start the test." Robin said. Hawk sadden a bit. "Ok......great...." She got up and walked out the front door and started playing with her hacky sack again. Beast Boy got up to follow, but sat back down. 'I want to tell her sorry....but I can't......' He thought. "So is the test hard?" Shadow asked. "I don't know. Raven and I will come up with something." Robin told her. Outside Hawk kicked her hacky sack and looked at the sunrise. "Yesterday had to be the weirdest day ever...." She grabbed her hacky sack. "....and...I liked it." She said to herself as she sat down. Beast Boy got up and walked outside. Shadow watched him go. "Will he be ok?" She asked. "Yeah...he does this every so often." Robin replied as he and Cyborg got up and walked to the training hall. Hawk looked at the water and felt a hand on her shoulder. "Hey...you ok?" Beast Boy asked. Hawk blushed slightly. "Yeah....I'll be fine..." She said. "Are you mad at me?" Hawk looked at Beast Boy shocked at his question. "No...Why would I. you saved me....I should be thanking you." Hawk said. "Good...I thought you hated me." Beast Boy said as he scratched the back of his head. Hawk hugged him. "No....thank you..." Beast Boy blushed and hugged back. "Your...welcome." Just then Hawk jumped out of his grasp. "The test!" She yelled as she ran inside. "Test?....OH!" He ran in as well. Hawk ran into the training hall and stopped as she saw the huge metal arena. "Whoa.......that things huge..." She looked at it and almost fell over. "Yep. Thank Cy here. He's been working on it for months." Robin said patting Cy on the back. Cyborg smiled. "So...what do you call it?" Shadow asked Cyborg. "I call it Cyborg's Robotic arena!" He said proudly. "Equipped with robotic arms and lasers and, basically anything you can think of!" Hawk's eyes went wide. "So your saying we have to go through that thing?" Hawk asked. Shadow elbowed her in the side. "Looks like fun to me." She said smiling. "DUDE! Why didn't you tell me about this thing!?" Beast Boy whined. "After you put a scratch on my baby you think I'd tell you about this? No sir." Cyborg told Beast Boy. Raven walked in and sat down. "Let's get this over with..." She said. Robin smiled at the two girls. "Ok who's first?" Shadow smiled. "Hawk wants to go first." Hawk shot a death glare at Shadow. "Ok...." She said as she walked up to the starting point. "On your mark!...Get set!...GO!" Hawk started to run through the arena. First she came across throwing disks, she got her blades out and started to swing them at the disks. She got hit with one, but it didnt stop her. Then she came across the robotic arms, she swayed back and forth, avoiding the arms. Finally at the end, it had 6 laser guns. "Oh no..." Hawk said as she ran through the lasers. She got shot on the back and fell over, but got back up and ran to the finish.
Then Raven said, "1 minute and 56 seconds. Not bad." Beast Boy ran to Hawk's side. "You ok?" He asked. "Yeah..." Hawk said as she caught her breath. Raven sighed. "Ok Shadow. Your turn." Shadow smiled and brought her hood on her head. Shadow smiled and took her place. "Alright....ready....steady....GO!" Robin yelled. Shadow smiled and ran through the course. The disk came flying at her, but Shadow didn't even move. Right when everyone thought the disk were going to hit her shadows came out of the ground and destroyed them. The arms swung around trying to hit her, but she touched one and sent lightning thought it short-circuiting them. Then the lasers started shooting and that's what got her. One lasers shot her shoulder and leg, but she made it through.
"1 minute and 55 seconds...hmmm......both are good...." Robin said. "Team hang on while me and Raven talk." Both walked off leaving them alone. Shadow collapsed to the ground. "urgh! my shoulder!" She yelled in pain. Cyborg ran up to her and so did Hawk. "Yo....you alright?" Shadow winced in pain. "Yeah...just a scratch...I'll be OW!" She yelled as her arm started to hurt. Cyborg picked her up and rushed her to the hospital wing. Shadow stopped him. "No..it's ok." She said smiling. "WHAT!? Are you crazy? Your hurt.....whoa..." He looked at Shadow's hurt arm and saw it had disappeared. "How?" Shadow smiled. "I have another power that heals people. I don't want the others to know.....please." Shadow looked at him sadly. Cyborg nodded. "Ok...I won't tell."
Hawk was once again playing with her hacky sack. "I...hope I make it." She said to herself. Beast Boy waited with her and saw Cyborg and Shadow come back. "Yo Dude!" He yelled. Cyborg smiled and sat down. Robin came back with Raven and cleared his throat. "Ok the new member is......" Shadow leaned in a little and Hawk stopped playing hacky sack. "......both." Shadow sighed. "Oh YEAH!" Hawk yelled happily. Beast Boy smiled at Hawk. "It's going to be great working with you two." His eyes never left Hawk.
