Raven let out a light groan and slowly opened her eyes. She stretched her whole body and rubbed her eyes.
"Mmmmm… what a night. That sure was one helluva-"
"RAVEN, WHAT THE $#&$ ARE YOU DOING IN MY ROOM?!?"
Robin's angry voice made her skin go completely cold. Raven completely forgot she's still in her leader's bedroom. The pale cutie quickly sat up and faced him. Her eyes widen when she checked out the young man's physique covered with sweat. Robin, wearing his mask, felt his face flush and grabbed a blanket to cover his body like a shield.
"You… YOU MASHER! You got a lot of nerve to come into my room and take ADVANTAGE of me, Raven!"
Raven was completely lost of words. The sorceress nervously looked to her left. Then she slowly looked back to Robin.
"Uhhh… it's not what you think."
"Oh REEEAALLLLY? Then explain to me what you're DOING HERE!"
Raven's eyes wondered around for a little. A few seconds later, she made eye contact with him.
"… Did I ever tell you that I have a serious case of sleepwalking?" Raven responded.
"… I never saw you sleepwalk at all, Raven…"
"Well… uh… it was pretty serious back at my home world when I was a child. I think this condition of mind must be … uh… RESURFACING! Yeah, that's it," Raven said. Robin raised a brow at her.
"And you were able to sleepwalk AND use your magic at the same time??" Robin asked, remembering his maximum security system.
(Oh, boy. Think, Raven, think!)
"Well, uh-"
A knock came from outside the room.
"Oh, Rooobbiiiin. It's your best friend, Stafire! I'm here to check on you, dear friend!"
Both Robin and Raven went totally bug-eyes on the door. Then they looked to each other.
"Oh, man! We can't let Starfire or the others see the both of us in my room! There's no telling what's gonna happen!" Robin whispered.
"… I should have left the room when I had the chance…" Raven whispered to herself.
"What did you say?"
"Nothing. So what should we do? You're the smart one in the team."
"Let me see. Hmmm. A-HA! Raven, put these blankets on and look as short as a muchikin from The Wizard of Oz."
"What good is THAT going to do?"
"Just do it! Trust me."
"… Okay…"
Raven covered herself with two blankets, covering up her identity completely. After getting totally covered up, she squatted low enough to be three feet tall.
"Okay, just go with the act and you'll get the chance to get out of this mess," Robin instructed. Raven nodded. Another knock came from outside.
"Robin? May I come in? I have wonderful nutrients to keep you going," Starfire called out. Robin let out a breath to shake off the tension.
"… Okay, Starfire. Hold on a minute." Robin wore his morning wear and undid all the security. He slowly opened the door. Starfire, full of spirit, glided into the room with a tray full of vitamins.
"I greet you good morning, dear Robin. These vitamins will help you get stronger than ever. I got them from the ad hosted by Jean Claude Van Damme and Jenny McCarthy. They said that these special vitamins will-"
Starfire caught her eyes on Raven under the covers. The red-head had no clue at all.
"Oh, my! I didn't know you had a visitor, dear Robin. Who is this… creature?" Starfire asked. Robin stood next to Raven in disguise and placed his hand on her shoulder.
"Uh… this is … E.T.! Remember the movie, Starfire?"
"Oh, yes I did! It was very touching when E.T. finally went home," Starfire said, going starry-eyed as she remembers the movie.
"So… uh… now he's here to …to find a NEW home!" Robin said. Robin gave Raven a light elbow, letting her know it 's her cue. Feeling embarrassed, Raven pointed her covered hand and pointed to the ceiling.
"… EEEEEE…. TEEEEE… PHOOOONE… HOOOOOOME!" Raven muttered. Feeling totally ecstatic, Starfire placed the tray on the desk and gave the covered up Raven a big hug. Raven let out a groan, feeling Starfire's huge strength and no floor to put her feet on.
"OOOHHH MY! YOU'RE SO ADORABLE! I'M GONNA LOVE YOU!" Starfire gave Raven a smooch on the cheek.
"AND HUG YOU!" Starfire gave her another smooch.
"AND SQUEEZE YOU!" Smooch number three.
"AND KISS YOU!" Smooch number four.
"ALL WEEK LONG! You're SO CUTE!" Starfire continued to hug 'E.T.', unknowingly making Raven groan in pain.
"STARFIRE, PUT RA- I mean, E.T. down! He needs to breathe!" Realizing what she's doing, she immediately put Raven down. Raven finally let in some air, but she was doing her best to stay in character.
"Sorry, Starfire, but E.T. has to go now. BYYYE, EEEE TEEE!" Robin said to Raven, letting her know it's now or never. Raven hobbled her way to the doors.
Beast Boy entered Robin's room, let out a huge yawn and rubbed his eyes. Raven's exit was completely cut off.
"Uhhhh… what the hell just happened? Where did that scream come from?" Beast Boy asked.
(… Damnit…) Robin and Raven said to themselves. Beast Boy looked down and saw "E.T" right in front of him. Robin felt a huge sweatdrop droop down his forehead.
"Uh, good morning, Beast Boy. Say hello to E.T." Robin said. Raven pointed to the ceiling again.
"EEEE TEEEEE PHOONNEEEE HOOO-"
"AAHHH!!! IT'S A MONSTER!! And it's right here, in TITANS TOWER!! Since I'm too tired to change into anything…" Beast Boy reached behind his back and took out a huge iron bat.
"I'm gonna WHACK THE $#&#ER with this baby!!" Beast Boy let out a battle cry and lunge toward Raven. Still perfectly covered by the blankets, Raven hobbled away from Beast Boy and his trusty bat. B.B. swung with all his might, but "E.T." dodged the swing. Beast Boy swung again and again, to no avail. Beast Boy raised bat high into the air, seeing his target perfectly in sight.
"I'LL SEND YOU HOME, YA DAMN FREAK! AND YOUR MOVIE SUCKS, TOO!" Beast Boy yelled.
"BEAST BOY, STOP IT!" Robin commanded.
"PLEASE do as he says, Beast Boy. He's completely harmless," Starfire said kindly. The green dude refused to listen. Just when he was about to swing downwards on Raven, a huge metallic hand grabbed the bat away from Beast Boy. All eyes turned on the newcomer.
"CYBORG!" Robin, Starfire, and Beast Boy shouted.
"… eeee… tee?" Raven muttered.
"Beast Boy, I'm ashamed of you. Using that bat on that little guy! Haven't you learned ANYTHING?!" Cyborg said. Beast boy looked away and kicked imaginary dirt.
"… You're right, Cyborg. I'm sorry," Beast Boy said.
"You don't use a bat on extraterrestrials." Cyborg aimed his cannon at "E.T." and transformed it into a totally different weapon with blue flame burning at the nozzle.
"You use a jet-fueled, mega-sick FLAME THROWER!!! BOOO-YAH!!!" Cyborg screamed, wearing a smirk on his face.
"AWRIGHT, CYBORG! You taught me well!" Beast Boy exclaimed.
"Cyborg, WAIT! That's not an extraterrestrial! It's-"
Cyborg unleashed fire at a monstrous magnitude. Raven screamed as the fire engulfed her completely.
"BUUURN, BABY, BURN! BUUURN, BABY BURN!!" Cyborg and Beast Boy sang. A huge black force and a very VERY angry scream erupted from "E.T." All four of the Titans fell to the floor as they felt the tremendous power. No matter how high Cyborg's flamethrower was turned up, it was still no match for the sorcery. Totally burned up, Raven emerged from her dark aura and wore a veeeeerry angry face. Raven turned her blood-red eyes on Cyborg and Beast Boy and stomped her way towards them. The Titans swore that every step Raven took shook the Tower.
Raven grabbed onto Cyborg's flamethrower and ripped it right out of Cyborg's shoulder. Smiling insidiously, Raven aimed the flamethrower right at Cyborg and his green buddy.
"… This is the part where you scream and run for your very lives…" Raven whispered.
Fire burst out the door and into the hallway. The one-armed Cyborg and Beast high-tailed out of there, with Raven in pursuit. As they ran, Raven laughed in an evil way and continued to torch her way towards them.
"WE'RE GONNA HAVE BEAST BOY FOR BREAKFAST!! AND CYBORG'S GONNA BE REDUCED TO KITCHEN UTENSILS!!!" Raven screamed.
"WE'RE SOORRRYYY!!" both boys screamed. However, Raven didn't listen.
Starfire and Robin walked out of Robin's room, shocked by the turn of events.
"How odd. What was Raven doing in your room?" Starfire asked. Robin turned away from her.
"She told me she sleepwalked into my room," he said.
"That's not important. We must stop our dear friends from hurting each other at ONCE!" Starfire flew off in pursuit of the three. Robin noticed a different taste in his mouth. Feeling confused by all the events, Robin rested his back on the hallway and folded his arms. Robin let out a sigh.
"… Man, what a morning. I still can't figure out why Raven was in my room. This taste in my mouth. What happened?" Robin asked himself. Robin suspiciously eyed the path Raven was last seen.
"Sleepwalking into my room? I don't buy it, Raven. Not one bit…"
… to be continued.
