Chapter 15: Exchanging identities.

Raven sat bolt up right, disturbing the covers that lay on top of hers and Robin's bodies. She felt her soul being sucked from her body. She felt as though she was flying through the air then it stopped and everything was black.

"Raven, you ok?" She stared down at her hands. They were grey. It had worked.

"Yes, I am fine thank you Robin. It was just a mare of nights." Starfire said.

"Okkkk then." Robin said, falling back and drifting off to sleep again. Starfire and Raven had switched bodies, just like they had before. The plan had worked. It may be a twisted way, but any way for Starfire to be with Robin was good enough for her.

"Hello Raven." Slade's sly voice echoed through the stone walled room. Raven's eyes shot open and she sat upright. She stood up and noticed her cloak was missing. She then realised she was a lot higher up than she usually was. she reached forward to attack Slade but stopped mid way through attack, noticing that her hands were the slight shade of orange. The same orange as Starfire's were. She looked down to her shoulders and saw long red hair resting there. She was in one of Slade's outfits instead of her own. She gasped. "Yes my dear. Noticed that you and my apprentice Starfire have switched bodies." He said grimly.

Slade turned and walked out of the door. He shut it behind him leaving Raven stunned.

"Morning Rae." Cyborg happily as Starfire walked into the main room.

"Yes I am Raven." Starfire said.

"Are you okay?" Cyborg asked looking sort of worried.

"Yes. I am fine friend Cyborg." Starfire said. Cyborg raised an eyebrow but Starfire took no notice of it.

"Here's your tea Raven." Beast Boy said handing Starfire a steaming mug of herbal tea.

"I do not like tea friend Beast Boy." Starfire said.

"But it's like the only thing you'll eat apart from pizza and other stuff." Beast Boy said stunned.

"I have grown a dislike towards it lately is what I meant to tell you. Yes." Starfire said.

The other titans ate their breakfast while Starfire was putting across a very strange turn of Raven by acting as Starfire and not Raven. "I am going to go and have a shower. I shall see you all later." Starfire said bouncing off down the hallway making the other titans stare in wonder at who they believed to be Raven.

"Raven's acting all weird." Cyborg said as soon as they were sure she had gone.

"Yea, I offered her some tea and she said she didn't like it anymore! RAVEN ALWAYS HAS TEA!" Beast Boy said.

"Yea and she wasn't Raven if you get what I mean when I went to kiss her this morning. It was like someone else was inside her." Robin said.

"And I just thought I'd like to point out the most obvious one. SHE'S SPEAKING LIKE STARFIRE!" Bumblebee said.

"You don't think…?" Beast Boy began.

"But how though. We destroyed the Puppet King's gadgets." Robin said.

"Well maybe Slade got some kind of new stuff which let him do it!" Cyborg said.

"Maybe. For now though, I think we need to just act normal and even if Slade has switched Raven and Starfire around then we need to play along with it so that we don't endanger Raven." Robin said.

"Do you mean the body Raven or Raven?" Beast Boy asked.

"I mean, which ever one is Raven." Robin said.
