OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

It was morning at the Titan Tower. It has been a week since Roy and Dari moved in and everything was going well.

"Give me the control!"

Well, fairly well.

"Beast Boy I swear. Give me that control or I'll beat the crud out of you!"

"Come and get it Tin man!"

Beast Boy and Cyborg were fighting over the TV remote. Beast Boy wanting to watch Making the Video of Tony Hawk's Underground 2 and Cyborg wanting to watch Pimp My Ride.

"Dude, get off me!"

"Argh!"

Robin was at the table drinking coffee reading the Jump City Times newspaper. Starfire was trying to cook breakfast. Raven was reading her depressing Edgar Allen Poe book. And no one knew where Roy was. Just then Dari walked through the doors in her pajamas.

"Morning" she said sleepily sitting at the table by Robin.

"Hey. Did you enjoy your sleep" Robin asked taking a sip from his cup.

"You ask me that every night. And the answer is the same"

"I'm just concerned"

"Hello friend Dari!" Starfire said suddenly.

"Oh hey Starfire. What'cha cooking?" Dari asked smelling the kitchen.

"A recipe from my home planet of Tameran"

"Really? Can I try some?"

Robin spit out some of his coffee and Starfire looked amazed.

"You wish to try some of my yarflack?"

"You want to eat some of that nasty crap?!" Robin shouted. "I mean yar-flizzle-aky...uh"

"Yarflack, huh?" Dari said.

"Yes"

Starfire put some yarflack on a small plate. It looked like bacon except it was green, had yellow streaks running inside it, and had small holes in it.

"Dari, if you treasure your life I suggest you don't eat that" Robin whispered.

"When have you ever seen me not try something at least once?"

"Right. But this is different. This is..."

"Yeah"

"Well.."

"I'm at a breakfast table with food right in front of me and I'm not eating. Anything wrong with this picture?"

Dari looked away from Robin and took the fork Starfire was handing to her. She looked at her food plate then at Robin. She smiled at him and plunged her fork into the yarflack. She took the fork and ate the food on it. Robin seemed to gasp.

"Hm..."

"Do you enjoy?" asked Starfire.

"Do you?" asked Robin.

"Yeah!"

"You do!?" Robin and Starfire said at once.

"Yeah. It tastes like what I had in the Philippines"

Raven walked into the kitchen with her tea mug. She walked to her tea machine and started to poor some into her cup.

"Hey Raven. Wanna try some of this yarflack Starfire made?"

Raven finished pouring her tea then looked at Dari.

"No"

"You don't know what you're missing out"

"Oh yes I do"

"Okay." Dari took another bite. "Hey where's Roy?"

Roy was out in the training field practicing on his moving target shot. He was in a gray sweat pants and a white muscle shirt. He wasn't wearing his mask. Roy was at the control deck getting ready for his next field change.

"Okay. Level six ready to commence" Roy said to himself.

Just then the whole field changed. The rocks suddenly became larger and cardboard enemies came out from under the ground. They resembled Slade's minions.

"This is level six? Come on"

Roy ran towards the enemies and got his bow ready. Some laser guns came out from the ground and started shooting towards Roy.

"Oh crap!"

Roy dodged the laser sparks and spot at them. They retreated. He jumped on the rocks and shot at three of the cardboard minions. It went like this for an hour.

Dari was done eating and was now watching Beast Boy and Cyborg fighting. They were like this for an hour.

"Uh... Do they always fight like this?"

"Yup" said Robin taking another sip from his cup.

Raven, who was reading her book, suddenly cracked. She closed her book with a loud bang and walked over to the couch where the argument was being held. With one swift move the remote turned black and flew out the window. Cyborg and Beast Boy looked at Raven then at the window where the remote flew out of.

"NOOOOO!" They both screamed at once.

"Hmph" Raven said.

"Raven! What did you do that for?" Beast Boy asked shocked.

"You two are fighting over a useless device and wrecking my reading. What was I supposed to do?" Raven said monotone.

"Why didn't you throw something else out the window like your book?" Cyborg asked shouting.

"Oh. Good idea. Or better yet..." Raven said. "Maybe I should've thrown you two out!!!!"

And with that she left leaving a very confused and very scared Cyborg and Beast Boy.

Roy just finished his training for the day and was now sitting down panting on a rock. He opened the water sitting beside him and let it carelessly flow down his neck down to his chest.

"Refreshing"

Just then something hit Roy in the head very hard.

"What the heck!"

Roy said falling back off the rock and spilling water all over him. When he finally recovered he got his bow and started looking around. He got it ready to aim. Roy started walking and felt something brush against his foot. Roy aimed his bow down and shot. He kind of missed seeing as he shot his toe instead.

"Mother-!" Roy screamed jumping and clutching his toes.

Back inside the tower was getting boring. Especially for Dari. She was sitting upside down on the couch watch reruns of Joan of Arcadia. Beast Boy walked over to the couch and was just about to sit down by Dari when he noticed she was there. He looked at her then turned into a monkey and landed on her stomach to look at her upside down. Then he went back to normal.

"Bored?"

"Is it that obvious?"

Beast Boy sat down next to her.

"Well, you've been sitting like that forever"

Just then Roy came into the tower limping. He was holding his bow and the remote. He looked mad.

"Is this yours?" Roy said throwing the remote to him.

"Yeah, dude. Uh, thanks?"

Robin turned around from his spot at the table and looked at Roy curiously.

"Um. What happened?"

"Well, someone threw the remote out the window. It friggen hit me in the head and fell at my foot. I thought it was a threat so I shot at it. I missed and shot my foot instead"

"You shot your foot?" Dari said trying to hide her urge to laugh.

"Yes. Did I stutter?"

Everything became silent. Robin knew that his cousin never backed down from a challenge. And this was a challenge.

"No. But I could barely hear you from all the laughing I was doing"

"Maybe you better get more serious, Dari,"

"Serious? I own a friggen record label. What's more serious than that?"

"Maybe I should've said grow up. Act more like a lady"

"Oh. And you would know how a lady would act?"

"Um..."

"Oh I knew it!"

"What?"

"You're a queer!"

Everyone in the room looked over at the current argument. Raven looked up slightly from her book. Cyborg and Beast Boy looked away from the T.V. Robin turned from his newspaper. And Starfire turned around from the stove.

"I am not a queer!"

"Why are you getting so defending?" Dari sneered grinning.

"What am I supposed to do? Admit I'm gay?"

"Well. First you just admitted you were gay?"

Roy mentally slapped himself.

"And second. Maybe you can be the bigger man and end this conversation to prove to me that you aren't a queer"

Roy looked at her astonished. He was at a loss of words. Dari got up off the couch and walked to her towards her room. She stopped and turned back around.

"Oh and um I was planning to go to the mall today. Maybe you guys want to come?"

Starfire instantly leapt up with joy.

"Oh yes yes. I would love to join you in the mall of shopping!"

"And you Raven?"

Raven went back to her book a few minutes into the argument. She didn't even look at Dari.

"Sure"

Dari looked towards the guys. Each of them nodded.

"Good. Okay I'm gonna get ready!"

Dari head towards the door again and didn't even turn around.

"You can come too Roy and hang out with the girls" Dari said really cheerily.

Starfire and Raven instantly followed her Starfire being a little more faster. Once the girls left Robin, Cyborg and Beast Boy went into a fit of laughter.

"Ooh boy. You got told!" Cyborg shouted.

"Dude! Crash and burn!" Taunted Beast Boy.

"Guys. Stop it's not funny" said Robin.

Roy was about to thank Robin.

"You might hurt his feelings!" Robin laughed.

They went into another fit of laughter. Roy just stood there. Then he went towards the kitchen to get a Gatorade.

How could I get told like that? By a girl too. Roy thought to himself. She reminds me of a rose. It looks pretty at first but when you touch it, it hurts like hell.

With that he opened his drink up and walked to his room to get freshened up.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
