Ignore"There's a surprise," Cy said sarcastically.
"What's that supposed to mean?""Nothing, oh great leader," replied Cyborg sarcastically.
"Good now…Hey! What's that supposed to mean!"
"Just get on with the dang dare," exclaimed Star.
"Humph. Fine, but I'm not Cyborg's friend anymore," pouted Robin.
"YES!" Seeing the look of sadness sweep over Robin Cyborg added, "Um, just kidding…"
After Robin regained his composer he continued with the dare. "I dare Raven to tell one of the us who she likes. Cough tell me cough, cough, cough…
"You may want to check up on your cough," suggested BB. The others, including Star's, response was to give him an anime sweat-drop/faint.
"I'll just ignore that comment, and tell…" This was it, once she told him or one of the guys they would tell him, Robin. "Star." Dang it! How could he forget one of his best friends? How could he forget the one, the only, the naïve, the beautiful, the Starfire?
"Um, ok, Raven would you like to tell me in the hall way?"
Raven nodded, and then motioned Star to follow her to the hall. There she made a dark bubble around herself and star, so the boys couldn't hear their conversation even if they tried; which they did. As Raven whispered of her crush for a certain titan, Star's face went from orange to the purest of white. Once Raven was done spilling her guts, she stepped back to view her handy work. Star's reflection can only be described as the look of a deer being pushed in front of a speeding semi. As the black bubble disintegrated so did Star's reaction. By the time the two were back on the TV room she looked like her normal self.
Raven had just opened her mouth to continue with the game when Star to a flying leap to Raven's neck, while yelling like a Green Bay fan who has been denied their season's pass. With fire in her once welcoming green eyes, Star would have killed Raven; or given her a really big boo-boo. But the teen titans job is to save the innocent from the freakishly 'upset' people in Jump City, and they weren't about to let one of their own rewind their perfect savior record. So like always while BB and Cyborg were taking care of the attacker, Robin was cohering and hiding with the girl.
"What the heck could you have said that could have made her so angry?"
"Gee, I wonder Robin. I just told her about my crush on…"
The rest of her comment was drowned out as Star cried out, " he is mine, you sensord. Hands off me, no not that! Nothing but that! No! Not Lysol! Ah, it clings to my nostrils like a rabid squirrel!"
"Sigh, it's ok you guys can come out now."
The birds walked in to find a badly bruised beast boy and an unnaturally blue Cyborg. In the middle of the floor was a twitching Star.
"What did you do to her?" The birds asked in unison while rushing to Star's side.
"Well one time after BB farted…"
"Hey you did to, bean boy!"
"Anyway we both let it all out one day, and to cover it up we used Lysol. Star was in the room when we let them rip, so as we thought she would faint like you two did, we covered up the evidence with it. Once the air smelled like river water; the scent; Star fainted also, so that's way we used Lysol…"
"Oh, but how long will she be knocked out," questioned Raven.
"Only as long as the scent lasts, so I'd say about five minutes," answer BB.
"Well while we're waiting, truth or dare beast boy," asked Raven.
"Um dare?"
"I dare you to look up the word 'Quathlamba', and yes that is a word."
"Sigh, do I have to," whined BB.
"Yes," answered Raven, while using her powers to drop a dictionary the size of a desk, on top of BB.
After looking for a minute BB cried out, "fount it!"
Once done evaluating his work Raven smiled and said, "Nice jog beast boy, but the word isn't questionable, it's 'quathlamba', which is spelled q-u-a-t-h-l-a-m-b-a"
The other two boys watched as bb went from happy; he had apparently found the word; to confused and frustrated. "What, what's wrong," asked the two curious titans.
The two saw the problem, for on page 1177, was quathlamba. The definition of Quathlamba was Drakensberge, so the boys turned to the page containing the word Drakensberge. The definition was Quathlamba.
"Endless circles, why must you torment me," cried out BB.
Just as the three begin to rise-up against the evil book, the beast began to stir. All eyes were on Star as she rose up like Frankenstein, and the first thing she did was…
That's what I call a good cliffhanger, happy holidays you guys. By the way I'm inspired again to update, but those reviews would help make my holidays merrier…
