First girl: So that's it, huh?

Second girl: Yup.

First girl: It's different.

Second girl: How so?

First girl: Well, there are less broken windows...

Second girl: I guess. But they haven't attacked yet, have they?

First girl: She hasn't turned.

Second girl: Don't.

First girl: What?

Second girl: Don't ever mention her to me.

First girl: Why not?

Second girl: My reasons are my own.

First girl: Tell me, or I'll nick your hat!

Second girl: (pulls hat down further over her ears) Oh no you wont!

First girl: (Singsong) I know how to blackmail you, I know-

Second girl: (Claps a hand over the other girls mouth) Shut. Up. Or I'll turn into a bear and rip you limb from limb.

First girl: (Struggles away) You wouldn't dare! Daddy said...

Second girl: I don't care what your Daddy said. He's weak.

First girl: But-

Second girl: We're on our own now. You can run away if you want, but I'm staying. If I'm going to beat her, I have to learn her tricks. And that means staying here.

First girl: You'd hang around with them? As if! She'd kill you!

Second girl: Not here, not yet. Only back home.

First girl: I miss my mother...

Second girl: Oh grow up. You'll see her soon.

First girl: Here they come! (Both duck behind a bush)

Second girl: Ichi, ni, sang, four, five.

First girl: Is that all of them? (Looks at her) Why the language change?

Second girl: That's as high as Pyro taught me. And yeah, all of 'em. Beast Boy, Cyborg, Starfire, Robin, and... Raven.

First girl: Which one is Robin?

Second girl: That one.

First girl: Which one?

Second girl: That one. (Points)

First girl: He's changed. A lot.

Second girl: Shh!

&&&POV TT's, who are walking along&&&

BB: She's gone...

Cy: I know.

BB: I could have saved her.

Cy: You told us.

BB: If Ponytail Dude hadn't tapped her...

Cy: Uh-huh.

BB: And-

Star: Beast Boy, stop, please.

BB: -it was you Star, your blast that did it...

Robin: Stop it Beast Boy!

BB: (Looks vacantly at him) And then Raven-

Raven: Beast Boy! Anyone would think that you'd never seen anyone die before!

BB: What? And you have?

(She turns away and bites her lip)

BB: (?) Oh... I'm sorry...

Raven: Yeah, well...

Second girl: As if she cares!

First girl: Shh Iris!

Cy: (Sweatdrops) What was that?

Robin: Search me.

(They all look at the shrub they're hiding behind)

Star: Is someone there?

(A grey tigress leaps from behind the shrub, snarling. BB counters it by turning into a wolf. Then the tigress is a cow, and the wolf an elephant. The cow seems to smile, and then turns into a little, grey mouse)

BB: Wha! (Jumps and lands in Ravens arms, everyone laughs, and the mouse it a girl, wearing a leotard like Ravens but green and denim shorts, with Raven-boots. Oddly, there is an orange woolly hat on her head)

Iris: (Wipes away a laughter tear) I'm sorry. (Laughs) You have no idea how often that trick works!

BB: Uh, how often does it work? (Suddenly realizes that he is clinging to Raven, so lets go and ostentatiously turns his back on her. She frowns)

Iris: (Still laughing) Well... (Becomes serious) You are the only other shapeshifter that I've met, so...

BB: Aww man!

Iris: Ah well, (Pats BB on the head) don't let it get you down Beast Boy.

BB: Wait, you know my name?

Iris: Of course. (He raises an eyebrow) I mean who doesn't? (Waves her hands) While we're on names, I'm Iris, and she's Krimson! (Looks around) Oy, Krimmy! Where'd you go?

Krimson: (Emerges from hiding place) Here...

Raven: So... Iris. Why did you jump out like that?

Iris: (Icy) Best way I could think of to intro, I guess. (Turns back to BB) Anywho, don't s'pose you know anywhere where we could crash, do you? We're kinda... New in town.

A/N: Who are they? And sori bout the length. This is the longest chapter.
