Session 4: Mud?


It was close to sunset. The sun hung quietly in the sky. The orange orb slowly began its descent beneath the horizon, into the sea. Ray's of light bounced off a slim figure on the roof. His shadow stretching behind him like a thin giant. Like a mirror, the shadow imitated its host move after move. The figure balanced himself on his arms. Slowly pushing himself up, his feet swaying back forth up in the air. He straightened his posture, trying to stiffen his trembling hands from pressure. He took in a deep breath. Sweat, dripped from his brow. Landing in little drops on the ground.

"Okay...Beast Boy.." he whispered to himself. He pushed himself up, "One." His arms trembled as he pushed himself up again, "Twooo..." he grunted. He paused, taking in deep breaths. His arm's started to burn as he tried to go for one more. He focused hard, "T-t-thr," Beast Boy could feel himself starting to wobble forward, "hreeeeee." He yelped in surprise as he fell forward hard on his back.

He lay still for a moment. Dust blowing over, "Oww...." He rubbed his head as he sat up, "Man, that hurt. Only one more." He snapped his fingers.

"Then perhaps, you acquire assistance?" A voice called behind him.

Beast Boy looked behind him, smiling. There was only one person he knew who talked that politely. He waved, "Hey, Star. Um what are you doing here?" He asked as he stood up.

"Wondering where you have gone." Starfire kept her arms behind her back as she walked over to him, looking out into the sunset, "Beautiful, is it not?"
Beast Boy arched a brow, his arm rested behind his head, " Well...," he looked at the sun. A smile crept on his lips as he felt the warmth around him, " yeah."

Starfire looked over to Beast Boy, "Um, why are you out here at this time, Beast Boy?"

Beast Boy walked over to the edge of the roof. Taking a seat, one leg dangling over it. "Nothing, just thinking."

Starfire took a seat next to him, "Thinking? May I know what about?"



Beast Boy shrugged his shoulders, "Just, y'know. Stuff."

"Stuff? Pray tell. What is this stuff?"

Beast Boy shrugged his shoulders again, " Don't know. Just stuff..." he said softly as he stared out to the sun.

Starfire looked to him as he leaned back on his arms, " Is..., something the matter? Beast Boy?"

Beast Boy fanned his hand as a sweat drop dripped down his head, "Nah, what makes you sat that. I..." Beast Boy sighed, "Yeah, something's wrong." He looked to her, "How'd you tell?"

"So, what has bothered your mind?"

Beast Boy rolled his eyes as he fell back. His arms behind his head, "Raven."

Starfire looked down at him, "Oh, for what reason?" she asked as she fell back next to him.

Beast Boy shut his eye's, half lid. He looked up into the sky, " It's like we don't get along anymore, y'know? Like she's been avoiding me...."

Starfire looked to him from the corner of her eye, "Does she not usually with others? We know she is not as open as some. And I am glad she allows to be open, to be our friend. "

Beast Boy shrugged his shoulders, "Yeah, I know. We're her friends. Yeah, sure she hangs out with us and sure, she is part of the team. We've all been friends since like, forever."

Starfire raised her brows in thought as she held up a finger, "I believe it would be 13 hurons, if I am not mistaken."

"Well, okaaay. I guess that's a long time where you're from huh, Star?"

Starfire nodded as she smiled. "The team has been together long, has it not?"

Beast Boy nodded back, "Yeah, well I understand that much. But I'm just talking just about me and Raven, okay? I mean, we get along great, but lately..." Beast Boy looked to Starfire, "Star, you're like her best friend. Can you do something for me?"

Starfire smiled, "Of course."
Beast Boy sat up, leaning on his elbow. "Can you, like, ask what's eating her?"

Starfire sat up, " Raven is being eaten?!"



Beast Boy waved his hands, "No, no, no. I meant, ask her why she's avoiding me? I mean, yeah I know I annoy here at times.."

Starfire chuckled, "At times?"

Beast Boy rubbed the back of his head, "Okay, maybe more than a few times." he said as he went through a particular flash back.

*flash back*

Beast Boy sat in the kitchen, covering his mouth to suppress his laughter. "Man, this is going to be good."

Raven passed by, walking into the kitchen, glancing to him. Beast Boy looked back and snapped it back, covering his mouth. Raven quirked a brow as she walked to the counter. Beast Boy tried talking while not giggling. "H-hey R-raven."

Raven turned her head to him as she took a mug from the cup board, "Um, hey?"

Beast Boy tried to hide his smile, "S-so, drinking coffee, huh?"

Raven poured it into her mug, "Yeah..." she said, arching a brow. She brought the cup to her lips but stopped. Beast Boy continually stared at her, smiling.

"Why do you keep staring at me?

Beast Boy looked away quick, "No reason!"

Raven continued to arch her brow, "Okay..." she brought the mug to her lips again. Taking a long sip.

Beast Boy tried to stop himself from bursting out laughing. He coughed to clear his throat, "So..., ever noticed how coffee t-tastes like-like-

Raven, shook her head as she continued to sip from her mug, "Like wha..."

Beast Boy smiled, "Mud."

At that moment, it seemed time came to a slow abrupt halt. Raven arched a brow and placed her cup down. Churning the contents of the drink slowly in her mouth. Beast Boy finally bursted out in laugher as Raven turned around to him. A brown mulchy liquid on her upper lip. Beast Boy fell over in his chair grabbing his sides as he laughed. Raven calmly wiped at her lip. Looking down at her fingers, "Beast Boy...." She stared at him, " Why . . . did you put mud . . .", she paused to look down into her cup, " in my coffee!?!"

Beast Boy rolled over on the ground, "Dude, you should have of seen your face!" he laughed. A large red vein throbbed on Raven's head. She threw the plastic mug at him and it dinged across his forehead. Beast Boy still continued to laugh despite the cup as he rubbed his head. Raven breathed heavily as she held up her hand. The sunny afternoon outside filled with dark clouds. A sudden clap of thunder roared outside the window.

Beast Boy immediately shut up as he backed away cautiously. Raven walked closer to him. A nervous sweat drop dripped down his head. He tried to contain his laughter this time "Raven, c'mon. It was only a joke." He waved his hands, "C'mon, I'm s-sor." Beast Boy glanced at the coffee maker and he bursted out laughing again. "Dude, that was priceless!"

Raven stared at him, her fist raised. Covered in a black aura. Now, Beast Boy finally did shut up, "Dude...you should've quit..." he said to himself. Beast Boy shut his eyes as he awaited for the pain...but it never came. Raven, looked at him in the eye. Beast Boy peaked open one of his, staring back into hers. Beast Boy was silent. There was something else besides anger in them.

Raven's, fist shook, ready to strike, but she slowly brought it to her side. She turned back, not saying a word as she placed her hood back on. Gliding out of the kitchen, the living room, and into the hall in a quick fashion. The doors slid shut behind her.

Beast Boy watched as she walked away. Beast Boy looked down and picked up the plastic mug. He wiped away some of the dirt, "Raven . . ."

Beast Boy sat there quietly, blinking a couple of times. Wondering what just happened. Beast Boy then heard a clapping behind him. Beast Boy turned around and jumped in surprise, "Robin!?" He pointed to him. How long have you been there?!"

"Long enough, BB. Long enough." Robin said as he walked from behind the couch and looked down to him.

Beast Boy sat up, chuckling. "Dude, did you see what I just did? That prank was excellent! It was perfect! And . . .,and . . ," he sighed, " and dude, you don't think she hates me now?" he sighed.

Robin nodded , "Ooooh, yeah."

Beast Boy quirked a brow, " Really?"

"Beast Boy? Did you not see her walk off like that? When a girl's like that, she kinda, really, really, REALLY, is hating you now."

Beast Boy shrugged his shoulders as if it was nothing, "Dude, y'know her. She'll talk to me later. I mean, how long can she hold a grudge?"

Robin shrugged his shoulders and let out a sigh, " With Raven? I think it'll be a real long time . . ."



"Dude, it was only a joke." He said to defend himself in the debate. "I mean, I didn't mean it to be serious.

Robin arched a brow and pointed to him, "BB, your problem is that you don't take some things serious." He said putting the emphasis on, "don't"

"But-"
"BB, you need self control."

Beast Boy arched a brow, " C'mon, I take things seriously and I do have self-"

"What you have, is a tendency of letting things slip out of control." Robin interrupted, putting the emphasis on "out"

Beast Boy rubbed the side of his arm, "You didn't have to say it like that, y'know?"

Robing looked towards the door that led out to the hall, "As long as I know, it's going to be a real long time till she talks to you again."

"You think, really?"

"Really." Robin replied as he walked off, "Wish I could stay and talk, but I got to go and meet Starfire in the weight room. She wants to help me practice. Well, think about what I said." Robin held up a peace sign, "Later." he said as he walked through the sliding doors.

Beast Boy sighed in silence as he sat in an Indian stance on the floor. Swirling his finger around into a imaginary hole in the ground, "I didn't mean for it to be serious...," Beast Boy pondered in thought, " how long could she hold a grudge . . ."


*out of flashback*


"So, that is why you insist I ask Raven, Beast Boy?"

Beast Boy sighed, "Yeah. I mean, I think she still holds that grudge to. Cause y' know?"

Starfire nodded, "Yes."

Beast Boy sat up and rested his chin on his knees, "Thanks, Star" he smiled. "Um, I don't want to be rude or anything...but can you like, leave me alone? For, like a second."

Starfire nodded as she walked off. "As you wish."

Beast Boy then closed his eyes, thinking again. He let out a heavy sigh "Maybe Robin was right. I don-"

Beast Boy arched a brow as he felt a tap on his shoulder. He turned around to find bright green eyes staring back to him. Her hair floated in the breeze as a gust blew pass. She looked down to him, smiling. Her eyes in little upside down U's.

"Uh, Starfire, what are you doing?"

Starfire smiled, "You said a second.".

"Star, that's not what I meant. What-"

Starfire then giggled.
Beast Boy arched a brow and then he chuckled when he got it, "Dude, nice one."

Starfire giggled again, "You are not the only one who can crack the joke." She turned around, "I will leave you alone now."

"Thanks Star." he replied back when she left. Beast Boy lay back down. He thought again to himself, "Maybe, I should have told Star about...nah. She might think I'm weird for telling her," he yawned "It was only a dream."

Beast Boy took in a deep breath and hummed softly to himself. "Mmh, mmmh, mhmhmh, mhhhh...."

Beast Boy rested his arms behind his head. Laying there, watching as the clouds floated by. Staring up into the sky, he could make out some animals. He stared at them, forming the images in his mind. He pointed to one of the stray figures, "Dog," he pointed to another, "Cat," then another, "Umm....rooster? No, pigeon..." Beast Boy arched a brow, "That pigeon's getting closer?"

The bird fluttered down, landing on top of Beast Boy's chest. Beast Boy looked down at the bird. It wasn't a pigeon, it looked more like a, "Raven?"

The crimson black bird hopped on his chest. It cocked it's head to the side at him, "Caaw?"

Beast Boy arched a brow, "Okay . . . kinda weird right now."

The bird hopped up on his chest to his face "Caaw?"

Beast Boy sweat dropped and waved, "Um...hey, little fella."


"Caaw?"

"Uh...yeah, caaw to you to."

The bird hopped down his chest as Beast Boy sat up. Beast Boy looked down to the bird, smiling as he warily brought his hand down to it. The bird stepped away a bit as it turned its head away. Beast Boy smiled as he gently stroked the fearful bird's head with a finger. The Raven looked up turning his head to the side again. "Caaw?" The bird smiled as it rubbed its head on Beast Boy's palm and jumped up on his wrist.

Beast Boy smiled, "Hey, at least this Raven isn't trying to avoid me." he chuckled.

The bird smiled. "Caaw."

Beast Boy stroked the bird's head again. He looked down to it, "Hey, I guess I can talk to you, huh? It's not like you'll tell anybody."

The bird cocked it's head, "Caaw?"

"I'll take that as a yes." Beast Boy chuckled. Beast Boy sat back on the edge of the Tower, "Well, I kind had a weird dream, y' know? It was weird and yet somewhat confusing . . ." Beast Boy looked tot the bird, "You with me so far?"
The bird nodded.

Beast Boy chuckled, "Hey, I know this seems kind of weird, but can you believe I won, like, this dance contest?"

"Caaw?"

Beast Boy chuckled, "Yeah, totally. And you can't believe who was my dance partner in it. C'mon, guess."

"Caaw, Cawa?"

"Close, but no." Beast Boy chuckled as he whispered into the bird's ear, "It was Raven."

The bird cocked his head, "Cawa?"

Beast Boy chuckled again, "Yeah, I know! Can you believe it? Raven, and me!?! Dancing?!?"



"Caaw?"

"Yeah, and that's not all. I also had this other dream where Raven, is like covered in the milk. And cold milk plus chest...." Beast Boy smiled, "Yeah...."

"Caaw?"

Beast Boy looked to the bird, "You don't think I'm a bit perverted for dreaming up something like that? Do you?"

The bird shrugged its wings. "Caaw?"

"I can't believe I had a dream about Raven like that. She's like my best friend, y' know? It's kind a weird.

The bird nodded, "It is kind of weird."

Beast Boy chuckled, "Yeah, I kn-," Beast Boy paused, "did you just talk?!?"

The bird stared at Beast Boy, "Uh...uh...no? Caaw?"

Beast Boy's mouth dropped as he jumped back, "Dude! You- You just did right now!"

The bird hopped towards him, "No, I didn't?"

Beast Boy stammered, "Y-You did it again!" Beast Boy felt his forehead, "I must be down with something!"

The bird slapped its forehead with it's wing, "I mean to say, caaw." The bird took flight and flew over to Beast Boy , perching on his shoulder. Beast Boy fanned him away, "Woah! Not any closer." he said as he took a step back from him. The bird fluttered back down to the ground. .

Beast Boy pointed down to him "What, do you want!?"
The bird stared to him and shrugged its wings, "Nothing, just wondering when your going to wake up." It said as he gave a leap at Beast Boy's face.

Beast Boy shielded his face with his eyes, "No, not the-"


"Ow!" Beast Boy shouted as he sat up, awake from sleep. Beast Boy rubbed his eyes and took a quick look around. He didn't find anything to his relief. There was no talking bird, matter of fact no bird around at all. Beast Boy wiped his forehead, "A dream...," Beast Boy took in a deep breath, "only a dream."

"Or a memory," someone whispered faintly by his shoulder, "caaw."

Beast Boy quickly turned to his shoulder. But when he did, he found no one there.

Beast Boy shook his head, looking down. He was just being ridiculous, he thought. That' when Beast Boy, noticed something caught between his fingers. He arched a brow as he held up a jet black feather to his face. Beast Boy stared at it for a while thinking to himself, before throwing the feather far from him quickly. The feather caught a slight gust of wind and slowly floated away in the air. Beast Boy sat up, watching as the feather glided from him. He dusted his hands, "It was just a dream." he said to himself as he walked toward the elevator to the downstairs living room.

"Just a dream..." he whispered as he pressed to close the doors. "Right?" he asked himself as the elevator doors slid shut. Beast Boy rubbed his head, "What did I eat last night?" He sighed, "What did that bird mean..."




So..uh...yeeeah....? Wow....,what DID he eat? Just a dream or not? What was the bird trying to say? Do you know, Oro? Well if you do, too bad Beast Boy doesn't. When will his dreams start making sense? Only time can tell.
