Starfire floats in front of Raven's room, hesitant to knock. "She'll snap at me if I do." one side told her.
"But then you'll never find out what's up?" the other side contradicted.
Fortunately, for Starfire, she didn't have to make that choice. Because the alarm went off.
Raven's door opens & Raven's surprised to see the alien girl floating in front of it. "Starfire, can I help you?"
Starfire thought quickly. "I came to tell you the alarm went off."
"I know. I can hear." Raven pointed out.
Starfire nodded. "Just making sure. Let's go." she flies toward the living room, Raven behind her.
The girls reach the room & sit down. Robin comes in & types some things in. A picture of a building up in smoke appears.
Robin turned. "This is the 5th attack on jewelry stores we've had this month. I think it might be Slade."
Starfire is confused on how it could be Slade, so she speaks up. "Why would Slade attack jewelry stores?"
"Cuz he's Slade." Robin simply said, as if that answered her question.
Starfire opened her mouth to say something when Raven put her hand on her shoulder. Star looked to see Raven shake her head.
Starfire nods & turns back to Robin, who was currently pacing back & forth.
"We'll have to split up." He turns to them. "Cyborg & Beast Boy, take the T-Car. Star & Raven, cover the air."
"And what will you do?" Cyborg asks.
He frowns. "I'm going after Slade."
"By yourself!" Star exclaimed, flying to stand next to him. "Are you crazy? You might be killed!" Her eyes begin to be filled with tears.
Robin turns to her & smiles. Wiping her tears away, he soothes her. "I'll be fine. Don't cry."
Star nodded & swallowed her tears. "OK. But be careful."
"Aren't I always?" he grinned.
'That's a loaded question.' she thinks & goes to sit down.
"Everybody got their assignments? Teen Titans, GO!" Robin exclaims, running out of the room, followed by Cyborg & Beast Boy.
Raven gets up, but notices Star still sitting down. Raven groans & goes over to her. "Don't worry. He might be a little crazy, but he's strong. He'll be OK."
Star looked up at her & smiled. "You're right. Thank you, Raven!" she threw her arms around the surprised girl.
"OK." Raven pushed her lightly off. "Don't get mushy. Let's go." She flies out of the room, followed by a happy Starfire.
In the T-Car, Cyborg & Beast Boy are arguing over something.
"So, why don't you tell her?" Cyborg teased.
"I don't like her!" BB shouted.
"I didn't say you did."
BB blushed again. "Well, you meant it."
"How do you now? I didn't say it." Cyborg teased.
"Because you can tell!"
"And since when did you become a mind reader?" he taunts.
But before BB can say something back, Robin comes onto the communicator. "Jinx is at it again! Go to eastside."
Cyborg makes a complete turn & flies eastward, BB holding on for dear life.
In the sky, Raven & Starfire look around. "What are we looking for exactly?" Star asks finally.
"I thought you knew."
Star began to laugh & so did Raven, which shocked Star, on account of Raven NEVER laughing. And I mean NEVER.
"You laughed?" Star asks, smiling.
Raven stops, blushing (which also NEVER happens). "Don't get any ideas. I'm not a complete goofball, like you."
"Or BB." Star laughs at Raven's face as she turns even more red.
"Why do you bring him up?" Raven questions.
"Because he's the main goofball of your dreams." Star mocks Raven in a sing-song voice.
Raven darkens even more. "I don't like him."
Starfire flies in a heart-shaped. "Really? Then why do you blush when he's near you?"
Raven begins to sweat. "I do not."
"You so do." Star ribs Raven.
Raven flies ahead. "I do not!"
Star follows her. "Do too!"
This continues for a few more minutes, until Raven suddenly stops. Star collides into her. "Why'd you stop?" she protested.
Raven went still & pointed down. Star followed her finger to…
