Chapter 6

Anielle looked out the window at the plain grayish passing buildings. To her slight disliking, she saw people enjoying their lives, smiling, and laughing. A smile was never misplaced, one was always there either revealed or hidden beneath their beautiful faces.

Different nationalities took over these people, making them mixed and colorful. A breathtaking painting held out for the entire world to see. Anielle wished for that kind of happiness some day, but she knew it never would come to her.

The Teen Titans and Anielle were all in the T-car, in the nice comfortable new and improved seats, and high tech seat belts, which happened to be in Cyborg's best interest. It was around noon, and they only had just begun their journey to find this Ramka guy. Due to Beast boy's complaints about not wanting to wake up at 7 in the morning, they got a late start.

Anielle hadn't remembered the last time she had been in a nice car like this, or if she ever had been in one in the first place. She only rode in big ugly tan colored vans when she was being moved form one "prison" to another. This car was very up to date, possibly by the second she guessed. It had a whole bunch of cool gadgets she never dreamed of seeing, some she thought amazing, some she thought…too weird to be an idea of a praised half human being. Though, it was pretty amazing all the same.

Last night she would never forget. It seemed too unreal to her, but she sure it happened. Of course it happened. It was as if they all forgot about the whole adventure thing. After figuring out that poem, they just went to do whatever they wanted to do, went where they wanted to, roamed where they wanted, said what they want, as those giggly girls put it.

Now Anielle wondered how exactly they got that kind of information. Secret cameras? In the living room? In their rooms?

All in a flash, they were all in the living room, except Cyborg and Beast boy. The others weren't really sure where they were. Beast boy was probably lurking somewhere still angry about the whole death thing, and Cyborg, well…maybe the same. Not remembering how she got there, Anielle looked around for sight of any video type cameras. She half expected to find one with its red light blinking.

"We shall find Beast boy and tell him," Star said. "But first, we shall properly introduce ourselves!" Anielle found that Starfire was pulling her into the room. Interesting choice of travel, Anielle thought bleakly.

"Let go of her, Star," Robin said. "You could be hurting her."

"I am sorry," Starfire said, and let go. She was relieved when there was no red mark left on Anielle's bare wrist.

"You want to properly…introduce each other?" Anielle asked.

"Yes!" Starfire said, smiling. "This is Robin, Raven, the green one was Beast boy, and the other was Cyborg, and I am Starfire."

"I…know," Anielle said.

"How is this so?" Star asked.

"Word gets around," replied Anielle. "But nice to meet you…properly."

"Indeed this word does get around," Star agreed.

"We are kind of the heroes of this city," Robin said.

"Wouldn't be surprised if we weren't known," Raven added.

"Yes, friend Raven and Robin, you do have a point," Star said.

"I'll go find Beast boy and tell him about everything. Anielle, you can make yourself at home," Robin said, walking out of the room. "We will start our trip tomorrow morning, early if Beast boy will cooperate."

"I'll go find Cyborg," Raven said, and exited the same way as Robin did, leaving a smiling Starfire and a confused Anielle.

"Nice place," Anielle said quietly. She felt puny inside the massive living room. There was a small counter and a fridge made small kitchen, and a game station lay on the floor in front of the couch. Even then, it was better than any house she had ever been in. To Anielle, it was all she had ever dreamed about going in such a place.

"It is a nice home," Starfire agreed.

"I bet it could fit all the homeless," Anielle said in a small voice.

"What was that you said?" Star asked.

"Nothing."

"OK," Star said smiling ". What would you like to do this nice Earthly evening?" Star asked.

"I uhh…." Anielle wasn't sure what to say. Usually on these evenings she would be sulking in a small room in the orphanage where all the crappy old books were kept dated twenty years ago, or eat lumpy microwave food the orphanage provided. She didn't like either crappy choice, but that was all the orphanage could provide. Stupid orphanage…

Anielle was being asked what she wanted to do. Not forced. A choice. It felt so strange to her…maybe being with the Teen Titans would give her a new experience to life. Starfire was so nice…

"What would you like to do?" Star asked again. "Watch a movie with some corn that pops? Or play a game with a station?"

Jump City was now behind the T-car, disappearing slowly. Goodbye Titans Tower. Good by strange orphanage. Goodbye giggly girls. Goodbye everything I ever knew…

Cyborg was driving, Robin sat next to him, Raven sat next to Anielle, and a bit behind Raven to the left sat Starfire and Beast boy. The seating was kind of confusing, there being four seats in the back and two in the front. Whatever Cyborg had done to his car, it worked. It even had cup holders and your own heater and air conditioner.

"What did you want to show us, Cyborg?" Robin asked. It was early that morning, and Beast boy wasn't up yet. Only Star, Raven, Robin, and Anielle stood in front of Cyborg and the T-car.

"New improvements," Cyborg said coolly, tapping his car.

"I thought your car was already improved," Robin said.

"Yeah, it was, but now it's newer," Cyborg brightly.

"What did you do to it?" Robin asked.

"I improved it, what do you think I did?" Cyborg said.

"As in?" Raven asked in a bored voice.

"I added an extra seat, for…Anielle," Cyborg said with a bit of distaste in his voice. He opened the back car door, showing four seats somewhat squished in the back. "The seats have cup holders, your own air conditioning and heater, and enough foot room to put your crap, I mean…uhh… things you can put in my car to keep you from being bored, and of course, moveable chairs, and added comforters." He demonstrated moving the seats back and forth, and showed how comfortable the seats were.

"That's great Cyborg," Robin said.

"Yes indeed it is," agreed Star. "But why such new Earth improvements?"

"And when would we need these things?" Robin added.

"Since we don't know how long our trip is going to be," Cyborg said. "I added some adjustments. Just to make things comfortable. You never know when you need cup holders."

"Is that all that you wanted to show us?" Robin asked.

"No, not in the least," Cyborg said. "Only the beginning."

"You mean there's more?" Raven asked bluntly.

"Yeah. There's more. A TV with cable installed with over a hundred channels, I've always wanted one in here. Not much use to me, though, since I'll be driving this baby." He tapped his car again lovingly. "A fridge is in the back here, but you see, you can't see it." He showed the fridge door that camouflaged into the surrounding color of the inside of the car."

"You just think of everything, don't you?" Raven said.

"What's that thing next to the fridge that I see is hidden in the color of your car?" Star asked.

"Oh, yeah, that. And last but not in the least…a porta potty. It's a porta potty, Star."

"A what?" Robin asked.

"A toilet. Don't worry; it has self-plumbing," Cyborg said.

"It does not look like an Earth toilet to me," Starfire said.

"I really don't want to-"

"How will we get any privacy?" Raven interrupted. "I mean, if we really want to use the…toilet."

"Everyone else will just not have to look," Cyborg said. "Or you don't have to use it, as you said."

"Uh, Cyborg? There will be rest stops on the way," Robin said. "We don't need all this stuff."

"You never know," Cyborg said. "There won't be any of this stuff in the desert."

"But in a car?" Robin asked. "I think that's getting kind of out of hand. Where did you get these ideas?"

"Let's not get into the details," Cyborg quickly.

"I do not think I shall be using that toilet," Starfire said.

"I don't think it's a toilet," Anielle said.

"Are we there yet?" Beast boy said in a bored voice.

"No," Robin said.

"You sure? It seems to me that we've been traveling for hours," Beast boy said, fiddling with the moveable chair.

"Dude, don't break that," Cyborg said, looking in the middle mirror. "I spent all night on it. Without any sleep."

"You didn't have to make them moveable," Beast boy said. "Are we there yet?"

"Beast boy, it has only been an hour," Robin said.

"Shall we watch a movie to make you not bored?" Star suggested.

"No," Raven said, who had her nose in a book.

"Why couldn't we just fly?" Beast boy said. "It would have gone a lot faster."

"We don't know exactly where the desert is," Robin said.

"Why does it have to be a desert?" Beast boy asked.

"Don't ask me," Robin said.

"Great," Beast boy said. "Is this Ramka guy crazy or what?"

"Yeah, he seems pretty crazy," Cyborg agreed.

"Who would live in a desert?" Beast boy asked. "A desert out of the middle of no where? Why am I coming anyways? Why couldn't I just stay back at the tower with the Titans East? Why-"

"Shut up Beast boy," Raven said.

"But-"

"Shut up."

To Raven's comfort, Beast boy closed his mouth.

They had been on the road for about five hours. A very long five hours. Cyborg almost fell asleep at the wheel from lack of sleep, so he turned on some music that would hopefully keep him awake. The music annoyed Raven, making Cyborg turn off the music, which made Beast boy and Robin mad because they liked that song. Cyborg turned on the music making Raven mad yet again, causing chaos in the T-car. Star tried to calm them down, but it was futile. Yelling had occurred, Robin, Raven, Robin, Cyborg, Starfire yelling all at once. The yelling made Anielle's head ache, so she butt in with the yelling, which caused even more noise.

Cyborg:Shut up! Your distracting the driver! Which is me!

Beast boy:I will shut up once you turn on the radio!

Raven:Leave it off. Leave the disrupting music off. It's all just a bunch of blurred noise. No sense in listening to it.

Beast boy:It was a good song!

Cyborg:Shut up!

Starfire:Please, dear friends, be quiet. You are all too loud!

Anielle:It is really loud in hear. Calm down.

Raven:There is no reason to get so upset. If you just leave the radio off then we all will be fine.

Robin: Leave the radio off!

Beast boy: But it was a good song! Turn it back on!

"Shut up!" Cyborg had yelled. "Enough already! We'll leave the stupid radio off!"

"But it was a good song!" repeated Beast boy.

"Who cares! Everyone just be quiet."

Silence filled the T-car. Beast boy silently got out of his seat and went to the fridge to pick something to eat. A few minutes later a foul smell had filled the car.

"Ugh, what's that smell?" Cyborg said in disgust.

"Nothing," Beast boy said quickly, sitting back in his seat.

Only an hour ago noise had filled the automobile, and now long boring silence rung in there ears.

"Turn on the radio," Beast boy said.

"Not this again," Cyborg said, yawning. "Though it would be nice to listen to the radio…"

"We shouldn't do something we can't all agree on," Robin said.

"Robin is right," Starfire said.

"I'm hungry," Beast boy complained, his stomach growling.

"There's food in the fridge," Cyborg said.

"Not anymore there isn't," Beast boy said. "I kind of ate it all an hour ago."

"You what!" Cyborg yelled.

"I ate all the food," Beast boy said in a small voice.

"Dude! I put a lot of food in there! You could not have eaten it all! And that was supposed to be for all of our trip!The whole trip!"

"Sorry, but there wasn't enough for just one person," Beast boy said. He sniffled a burp that almost escaped from his mouth.

"Now that is hard to believe," Cyborg said. "You ate all our food, now we're going to have to stop."

"We would have had to stop to sleep anyways. You have to get some rest, Cyborg," Robin said.

"Yeah, yeah, I know," Cyborg said. He looked at the sign of the road that said 'Rest Stop, Food, and Gas, 10 miles.' "You guys want to stop for the night?"

"It's still light out," Robin said. "Maybe the next rest stop."

"Uhh, guys? I gotta use the rest room…" Beast boy said.

"Use the toilet in the back," Cyborg said.

"I uhh…"

"Now what?" Cyborg said.

"I kinda broke the toilet…it wouldn't flush. The handle broke…off…I think."

"You think?" Cyborg asked harshly.

"It broke off!"

"What! You eat all our food, and now you break my toilet! The handle? Oh come on!" Cyborg yelled, outraged.

"I guess that explains that foul smell that won't go away," Robin said. "Cyborg, I guess we could stop at this next rest stop."

"Beast boy, you little green stain, your going to pay for what you have done to my car," Cyborg grimly.

"Dude, I'm sorry!" Beast boy said. "It's not like I tried to break the toilet and eat all the food on purpose."

"Yeah, it's just in his being to make everything go wrong," commented Raven.

"Hey! Not true! I deal with high tech stuff all the time," Beast boy said. "If you call the toilet a high tech…thing…"

"It was a high tech thing," Cyborg said. " Wait, it's not a thing. It's part of my car! Until you touched it and used it for your own personal needs."

"Haha," Beast boy said sarcastically.

"So how do we get rid of the smell that is not pleasant?" Star asked. "I believe it is getting quite worse than it was before."

"We air out the car," Cyborg said, opening all the windows. A cold gust of wind flew in, making the six passengers shiver in their seats. Luckily, the foul smell drifted away, replacing a fresh grassy smell from the lush green hills that surrounded them. Cyborg rolled up once the smell was completely diminished.

"Whoa! What was that!"Beast boy exclaimed, pointing to a gray lump that was on the left side of the road. Beast boy looked out of the back of the car when they swiftly passed it.

"I don't know," Cyborg said, looking in the middle mirror. "Some kind of rock probably."

"I don't think it was a rock," Robin said. "It was moving I think."

"We were moving, not it," Cyborg said.

"I think it was a person. Look! The person is lifting up his head!" Beast boy pointed at the small gray thing with a bit of flesh showing that probably was the face. The person was too far away to see the face of the man, or if it was a different species or gender.

"What the heck?" Cyborg said, confused. "A man sleeping out here?"

"It is pretty quiet," Robin commented. "There aren't really any cars around."

"True," Cyborg said. "Cars began to disappear about an hour ago."

"That does not sound normal?" Star asked.

"I guess not," Robin said.

"A lot of remote areas out in the country side don't have a lot of cars driving around," Anielle found herself saying. Her brother was using her to talk again…please make him stop…. "So it is kind of normal."

"Oh," Starfire said. "I guess that does make sense."

"Are we even in the country side?" Robin said.

"I think that grey lump is getting up and walking towards us," Beast boy said numbly. The lump was only a small figure now, and was about to dissapear around a big hill to the right of the T-car.

"It is?" Cyborg said with disbelief in his voice. "Or are you just making up these things?"

"He is getting up! Freaky, man," Beast boy said, turning away from the window. "He could catch up to us at the next exit. I think we should keep going."

"You just said you were hungry," Robin said.

"He's always hungry," Cyborg said.

"I don't want that dude following us," Beast boy said.

"There's no way he could know where we're going," Cyborg said.

"How do you know?"

"I just know, alright?"

"He could have something to do with this Ramka guy," Beast boy said spookily.

"That's impossible," Robin said.

"How do you know?"

"Not this again," Cyborg said, rolling his eyes. "Stop asking questions, Beast boy."

"Why should I?"

"We are going to stop at the next rest stop," Cyborg concluded. "We are all hungry, and probably you most of all. End of discussion."

"But what if-"

"Let us not speak of that human lump any longer," Star said to Beast boy. "Maybe it is just moving to a new spot to rest his eyelids."

"Maybe," Beast boy said, slouching in his seat. "Maybe."

"Glad that's settled," Raven said, putting down her book. "Maybe we should have this Ramka guy shut Beast boy up again."

"Great idea," Cyborg said.

"It … would be pleasant," Starfire said carefully.

"Thanks a lot guys," Beast boy said dully. "Thanks a lot."

"Oh, you're welcome," Cyborg said cheerfully. He quickly turned off the exit that somehow appeared without him realizing it right away, making his tires screech a bit. He swore silently. The hill that made the big turn blocked full vision of it.

"Well, we're here," Cyborg said. "Wonder what restaurants they got."
