I haven't even posted chapter four and I'm starting this. I'm so ashamed of myself. The problem is, I'm grounded form the computer upstairs with internet, but I'm allowed to use this computer which is good for nothing other than typing stories and saving them to disk. The thing is, my mom (who is sick) is sitting behind me on the couch watching the TV which is, like, five feet away from me. Even worse, all she watches is lifetime for women which is boring beyond all reason. I would rather watch Kate and Julianna's anime movies in Japanese without subtitles. So while I type, I'm listening to commercials for birth control pills and tampons with awful made for TV romance movies. So if you see things like this: airiutviseu rluintotwya niluetvnisey, it means I'm banging my head against the keyboard trying to ignore the muscled dude saving the screaming lady's baby from the fire or wreckage of a car. I don't know if I'll survive this. I seriously hope it snows. Then I'll go next door and talk to Matt. Or try to roller blade on the ice and get hurt again. This note is getting irritating, so let's move on.

In this Chapter, I will be holding a poll, but be warned: I will still hold 51 of the vote. The poll will be at the bottom.

One last thing: This takes place after season three. Nothing from season 4 is going to be in here if it contradicts what I've already said (ei. "Birthmark" might). If it doesn't (ei. "Quest") then I'll include it. Just so you know. And don't forget that I make stuff up and throw it in.

Both girls' heads snapped up as they heard a yell from somewhere else in the tower. Some one ran past the door out in the hallway.

"What was that?" Jinx asked, slightly alarmed. Starfire shook her head and dropped her brush on the bed.

"I do not know friend. I will-" The footsteps came back and the door slid open. Robin stood in the doorway looking in at the two girls.

"Did you two hear that?" He asked simply. Both girls nodded and stood up, ready to leave the room. Robin whipped out is comm. link. He easily pulled up a map showing him where everyone was. He saw two circles, one red, and one orange in Starfire's room. There was also a blinking yellow dot there as well. The green circle was moving around in Beast Boy's room. Robin frowned. He flipped through each floor of the tower twice under the gaze of Starfire and Jinx before locating the light blue circle and the violet one in Raven's room.

"There's no one in the tower except for us." Jinx walked over and looked over Robin's shoulder at the little device.

"Hey, that's a cute little… thingy…" She said. Robin twisted his head around and glared at her. Jinx sweat dropped and slid away a short distance. Starfire strode over to her unofficial boyfriend as well.

"You are sure there is no one in the tower? You are sure that there is nothing strange at all within the tower?"

"Well… Cyborg is in Raven's room…" Starfire gasped.

"Is he within sane?" Robin allowed himself a little smirk.

"Well raven's there too." Jinx tilted her head.

"I'm guessing raven's room is off limits?" Both teens gave her the same look I would be given if I asked of my language arts teacher whether I am supposed to end this sentence with a period. "O….kay, stupid question. How pissed was she when I messed with her magic mirror and stole two of her cloaks back when we took over your tower?"

"Magic mirror?"

"You were in her room?"

Starfire and Robin exchanged glances.

"Whatever." They said together, not knowing anything about a magic mirror. Jinx raised an eyebrow, obviously surprised Starfire said 'whatever'. Robin shook his head, looking down at the communicator.

"But if Cyborg yelled because Raven caught him in her room, why is he still there?"

"" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" ""

"Cyborg, sit."

"But-" Raven gave him a "look" a Cyborg immediately shut up and sat down on the edge of Raven's bed. It groaned sickeningly, but Raven seemed distracted. She paced in front of him obviously deep in thought, until she stopped mid-step.

"How much of my conversation with Robin did you hear?" Cyborg bit his lip briefly.

"Uhh…" Raven sighed.

"Don't worry, I already know you were spying."

"Well, isn't 'spying' a little harsh? I mean, I only walked by and heard-"

"You were spying. What did you hear?"

"Just Robin promising something, and you were talking about a problem with Beast Boy."

"That's all?" Raven removed her hood and walked over to her desk, opening a drawer.

Cyborg looked at her suspiciously. "Well… yeah. Why? Are you going to have to kill me because I know something, now?"

Raven snickered.

"Did you just… laugh?"

"Sorry. It's funny that you think this is from some action movie." She shut the drawer and walked past Cyborg to the right side of the bed. She got down on her knees and reached under.

"So… Why do you care what I know?" Raven crawled further under the bed as if what she wanted was just out of reach.

"Because…" Raven grunted as she grabbed hold of whatever it was she had wanted. "You don't know everything about what we were talking about, and I want you to know before I do anything." She finally emerged from under the bed, crawling backwards, pulling on the handle of a wooden box. Cyborg leaned back and watched in interest as she pulled it out the rest of the way, then began to heave it up onto the bed.

The box didn't look too special. It was about a foot wide and only slightly shorter in length on the two sides with the wooden handles. At five inches tall, it was also very small, but Raven had distinctive trouble putting it on the bed. Every inch of the lack wood was elaborately burned with designs indescribable by words.

"After you and Jinx and Robin left the main room earlier today, Starfire, Beast Boy, and I were watching the news." Raven slid the top off of the box towards herself.

"So?"

"Suddenly Beast Boy yells out and runs out of the room. That was a few minutes before the false alarm and we haven't seen him since."

"Oh." Cyborg tilted his head trying to look into the box, but Raven sat cross-legged on the bed between him and it so all he could see was the back of her head. He knew better than to ask about it, however, so, "Why?"

"Obviously I don't know. He left right when they announced that circus in the city. The only plausible thing I could think of was that he hates circuses and was going to make posters about how they torture animals or something."

"Why are you telling me?" Raven ignored his question and took off her belt. She selected a jewel and popped it off with a small snap like my finger breaking that time I was bowling in a league tournament. (The fourth broken finger bowling, no less.) A small folded piece of paper toppled out and onto the bed spread. Cyborg stood and wandered over to the bookshelf as raven unfolded the paper, smoothed it out, and put it gently into the box.

"Even stranger, he didn't come out of his room when the alarm sounded." Raven shut the box and clasped the jewel back onto her belt.

"What do you want me to do about it?"

"Talk to him." She replied simply. "Don't touch that!"

Cyborg, who had been reaching toward an old bloodstained book on the shelf, dropped his hand to his side and turned sheepishly toward Raven, whose back was still to him.

"Well what do you want me to say, Dark girl?"

"I don't care. You know him much better than I do. He probably trusts you more, as well. Just see if he'll tell you what's wrong." She twisted around to look him in the eye. "But don't mention the circus or- or your girlfriend."

"Uhh… 'Kay?"

"Now get out of my room." Cyborg was willing and ready to comply and he beat it out of there quickly as possible.

"" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" ""

"What do I do? What do I do? What do I do?" Beast Boy paced back and forth. A little while ago, the alarm had gone off, but he ignored it. And then some one yelled, but he had still been wrapped up in his panic. In fact, he hadn't done anything but pace and mutter since he'd seen it on the news.

"Hey, B?" Cyborg. Beast Boy was half way to the door before he had second thoughts about opening the door. He walked back and sat on the window sill.

"What?" His voice was just loud enough to be heard outside in the hall, but it was a little shaky.

"Can I come in? I wanna talk to you." Beast Boy nodded. Then remembered a full three seconds later that Cyborg could not, in fact, see through walls. He walked over and opened the door with a solid poke of the button. Sure enough, there stood Cyborg's hulking self framed perfectly by the doorway. He walked in and as the door shut behind him, turned towards his small friend.

In the space of three seconds, Beast Boy had rearranged his face into a half-smile oblivious to any and all worries. Acting had always been one of his strong points. Cyborg was slightly dumbfounded.

"So… uh… What's up?" He said lamely. Beast Boy slid around him and looked around his own room trying to find something to do while Cyborg was there.

"Nothing."

Cyborg turned around and looked around at posters on the wall. "Raven said you ran out da room watchin' TV, man. Right when they mentioned the circus bein' in the city." Cyborg cringed. Raven told him not to mention the circus. Beast boy cringed and momentarily fell out of character. He quickly composed himself, however, and responded with the first thing that came to his mind.

"Uhm, yeah! I love the circus!" He stole a glance at Cyborg to see if he was eating it up. He was. "I came up to look online for tickets, but… no computer." He grinned sheepishly. If he was right, Cyborg would take it as his own usual stupidity. Being the jokester wasn't so bad at times like these.

"Oh…" Cyborg thought for a moment. "Hey, I don't know about raven, but everyone else is probably up for it! I'll go tell the others and Robin can probably get tickets."

Beast boy felt a massive wave of nausea, but kept that stupid grin on his face.

"Cool! When does the circus open?" Cyborg shifted through recent visuals in his mind.

"I saw an article a little while ago. It starts a week from tomorrow."

"Awesome. I got some stuff to do, so…"

"Okay, little man. I got it." Cyborg fairly jogged out of the room and down the hall. Beast boy kept up his smiling façade until the door slid shut. He breathed a sigh of relief and shoved everything out of his mind for the time being as he tuned into a little blue jay for a nice flight around the bay.

SMACK

BANG

"Who the hell put glass in my window?"

Robin had already left the room, but so had Jinx, and our poor, naive Starfire was bored out of her thick, Tameranean skull. She was floating upside down with her feet touching the ceiling as she stared out of the window.

"Hmm hm Hmmm hmhm hm hmm…" She hummed as she watched a pair of sea birds twitter and chase each other pass the wide window. She did a small forward roll flip and landed back on the floor. Starfire walked over to her bed, but suddenly something vaguely similar to the impact of a train hit her in the gut. The pain was brief followed by bout of severe, overwhelming nausea.

"Siengrib larfin atchcon nirfem anterun." She mumbled in her own native language, swaying slightly in a drunken fashion. Her voice had suddenly become tired and bland. She took a few steps towards the door before falling to her knees. She was already in a dead faint before her head even hit the mauve carpet.

Okay. Chapter five. First I'll tell you that this fanfiction was deleted for cursing above the rating level or whatever, so now it's R. Now, here's the poll:

Is Jinx working for some one?

a) Yes, Slade

b) Yes, Trigon

c) No, she's good

d) No, but she's going to leave

e) No because Trigon or Slade is after her

I won't even start the sixth chapter until I get enough voters. It's easy. Just put the letter of choice at the end of your review.

Enough ten
