Chapter 8: Finally Some Down Time…Maybe Not
After a long day, the Titans finally had some time to breathe. Almost as soon as the Titans got home, Cyborg and Beast Boy went straight for the GameStation, Shockwave and Starfire followed behind Cyborg and Beast Boy and Robin headed for Raven's room. Terra and J.T. were up and about, headed for the main chamber. As they passed Robin in the hall, they couldn't tell that anything was wrong.
Robin rounded the corner and headed into Raven's room. Raven still lay unconscious, just as Robin left her. Robin soaked the rag on Raven's head and placed it back on her forehead.
"Come on, Raven. You're going to be all right," said Robin as he ran his hand through her hair.
Suddenly, Raven started to stir.
"Ohh…Robin? Where am I? What happened?" Raven asked.
"Raven! You're all right," said Robin.
"Yeah, I'm fine. Now what happened?" she asked again.
"Oh, your powers went haywire and you went unconscious," replied Robin.
"Did anyone get hurt?" Raven asked.
"No. At least there's that," said Robin.
"Well, I feel fine now," said Raven. "Thanks for looking out for me."
"Well, I, uh, no sweat, Raven," said Robin as he started to blush.
Raven gave him a hug and walked off, with a small smile on her face. Robin nearly fainted, but he quickly regained his composure and headed back to the main chamber.
-In the Main Chamber-
Robin had just walked into the main chamber. Beast Boy and Cyborg were playing GameStation, Raven was reading a book, Starfire and Shockwave were talking J.T. was getting something to eat and Terra was listening to music.
"We're gonna need a bigger tower," said Robin to himself.
Then wouldn't you know that the alarm started ringing again.
Everyone groaned, "Not again!"
Seems that Plasmus was causing a ruckus at the Convention Center. He was breaking stuff, ripping pipes up from under the floor and overall scaring the bejeezus out of people.
"Much as we don't want to, Titans, go," said Robin reluctantly. "Shockwave, you going to join us?"
"Sure," Shockwave answered. Shockwave turned to J.T. and asked, "Is it like this all the time?"
"Normally it's pretty slow," said J.T. "Today's just one of the good days."
"He calls THIS a good day?" said Shockwave. "Good lord…"
