Chapter Three: Security

The next morning...
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK.
"GO AWAY, BEAST BOY."
"But I, uh...um...I need to talk with you...it's important..." came Beast Boy's voice timidly.
Raven sighed. Maybe I should just give this kid a break. "Come in."
The door slowly opened, and Beast Boy shuffled in. "So, what's up?" he asked.
"YOU'RE the one who wanted to talk, REMEMBER?"
"Oh...yeah...um...can...can I sit down?"
"Sure, whatever."
Beast Boy sat at the foot of the bed. "Um...a couple days ago...with that whole Malchior thing...um...I just want you to know that if you feel lonely, you always got me...us, you always got us to talk to."
Raven was surprised. "Thanks, Beast Boy."
Beast Boy turned a slight shade of pink. "You're...you're welcome, Rae. Raven."
There was a brief pause.
"...we should get down to breakfast and stuff," said Beast Boy quickly, getting up, and he bolted out of the room. Raven sat there for a moment.
"That was weird."

"Friends, I have made a new breakfast for you to consume!" said Starfire happily, presenting a plate of purple and green...Jell-O.
"Well, this is new..." commented Robin, poking his fork at it. It moved around.
"Is it...Jell-O?" asked Cyborg, looking at the substance.
Starfire said, "Please wait for a moment!" and she went to get something from the kitchen, and brought it back. "Is this what you mean? The O of Jell?" (Okay, so that's a little farfetched, but I couldn't resist doing that!)
"Uh...yeah, that's Jell-O, but how'd you get it to be purple and green when it's supposed to be red?" questioned Beast Boy, also poking at the dish.
Starfire looked confused. "What do you mean? I followed the directions."
The others looked at each other nervously.
"Well, let us consume the O of Jell!" Starfire happily scooped out some "O of Jell" onto her plate, and began to eat it. Robin sighed, and put some on his plate, followed by Cyborg and Beast Boy.
"What about you, Raven?" asked Cyborg.
"Yeah, don't you want some Jell-O?" asked Beast Boy.
"I'm content with my herbal tea," replied Raven. "But I don't think Robin and Starfire are about to eat all that Jell-O by themselves, boys."
Beast Boy and Cyborg looked down at their untouched Jell-O.
"Friends, are you not hungry?" asked Starfire.
Beast Boy and Cyborg started to grin, but Robin said, "Beast Boy. Cyborg." in a way that would make the devil tell the truth.
Beast Boy and Cyborg scarfed down the Jell-O, shouted "DONE!" and ran to play video games.
"Raven? Are you sure you do not wish to try the O of Jell?" asked Starfire.
"I'm not hungry," replied Raven.
"Oh...that is all right then..." said Starfire.
"WHAT! HOW DID YOU BEAT ME!" came Cyborg's voice.
"DUDE, I WON FOR ONCE! YEEEEEAAAAAAAAH!" came Beast Boy's voice.
Raven rolled her eyes. Any second now, he's gonna come bounding up to us saying he's the King of one game or another...
"I BEAT CYBORG! I BEAT CYBORG! I BEAT CYBORG!" shouted Beast Boy happily.
"BB, we get it already!" said Cyborg bitterly.
"Good for you. Maybe you have some talent after all," said Raven. Did that just come out of me?
"That is glorious, Beast Boy!" said Starfire cheerfully.
Suddenly, red lights started flashing, and the alarm went off. Robin came in. "It's a new one for once," he said. "Down robbing the bank. Let's go!"

They follow him to the bank, where some guy was trying to get away. He started to panic when he saw the Titans.
"Oh...crap."
Before the robber knew what hit him, Robin hit him in the stomach with his katana (sp? do i even have the right word?). That's when the robber's eyes started glowing black, and the earth beneath them started to shake.
Beast Boy turned into a kangaroo, and jumped over the cracks that the mini-earthquake was making, then turned into a cat before scratching up the robber's face. Raven saw the robber's hands beginning to glow, so she surrounded Beast Boy with dark energy, and pulled him off the robber. Starfire threw starbolts at the robber, and Cyborg also fired at him. Raven muttered, "Azarath Metrion Zinthos," and abeam of black energy hit the robber, and he was knocked out.
"Good job, guys," said Robin. "Our work here is done."
Beast Boy approached Raven. "How come you pulled me off?"
"Because the guy's hands were glowing and you were attacking his head."
"Oh...thanks."
"...you're...welcome..."

As they headed back to the Tower, Raven thought to herself, "This is getting weird..."
