Thank you for the reviews. I don't own Teen Titans…just Silverfire & Raven's new guy, who I will introduce in this chapter! So stay tuned.
Starfire is on the roof, staring up at the sky. "This is confusing." she says out loud. "I like Robin, but then Silverfire comes & I don't know how to feel." she groans.
"What's wrong, Star?" Cyborg asks, coming out.
Star turns & smiles. "Hello, Cyborg." She looks back to the sky. "It's just that…I do not know what to do about Robin & Silverfire."
"Besides them glaring at each other?" Cyborg jokes.
Star attempts to, but fails. "Yeah, but other stuff…"
Cyborg becomes serious. "Star, I can't choose for you, but follow your heart."
Star looks up, hopeful. "You know what? I might just do that!" She hugs Cyborg. "Thank you, Cyborg!" She flies back inside, leaving a stunned Cyborg.
"I will tell Silverfire how I feel about Robin. I am sure he will understand." Star says, happily. Then slows down when she hears arguing.
"Well, you wouldn't be here if Starfire didn't invite you!" Robin yells.
"It is not my fault that she loves me, & not you!" Silverfire shouts.
Starfire peeks in & sees Robin's face turn red. "Who said she did?" he asked in a small voice, breaking Star's heart.
Silverfire laughed. "Well, it is obvious, is it not?"
One side of Starfire wanted to stop this, but the other side wanted to hear what Robin said. Star decided to listen to the other side & leaned in slightly.
Robin glared at Silverfire's smirking face & opened his mouth…
"Hey, dudes!" BB comes in, looking in the fridge.
Starfire represses a groan of frustration. "Beast Boy, you came at the wrong time." she swears quietly.
Meanwhile, Silverfire floats over to BB. "So, what are you making?" he asks.
Beast Boy comes out, arms loaded with a pack of tofu , cornstarch, green onions & hoisin sauce. "I'm making Agedashi-esque Tofu!" he shouts.
"Oh no, I ain't eating no tofu!" Cyborg yells, coming down.
"It's my turn to cook, so I'm making tofu." Beast Boy yells, putting the food down. "I had to smell your nasty Ann's Sister's Meatloaf Recipe two days ago!"
"Well, you didn't eat it. You ate some apple raisin cakes." Cyborg walked past BB to the fridge. "So I'm making my own food."
"Not until I'm done!" Beast Boy, cutting the tofu.
Cyborg came out, burdened down with lean ground beef, mushrooms, margarine, green bell peppers, garlic, dried parsley, dried basil leaves, dry bread crumbs, soft bread crumbs, & sharp Cheddar cheese. "I'm making Andie's Stuffed Mushrooms."
"What are you yelling about?" Raven asks, coming out of her room.
"We're not yelling!" BB yelled, causing Raven to flinch just a little.
Raven walked over to Star & rolled her eyes. "Of course not. You're just a figment of my imagination."
Before Beast Boy can speak up again, Robin steps in. "Chill guys." He turned to Cyborg. "Cy, can you wait 'til BB's finished?"
Cyborg grumbled. "I guess I can." He began putting the stuff away.
"Raven, say sorry. BB isn't that loud."
Raven groaned. "Fine." She turns to BB. "Sorry…"
"That was not a real sorry!" BB shouted.
Robin turned to Beast Boy. "And BB, respect Cy's choice of food & he'll respect yours. Plus, don't yell at Raven."
"I do respect it! I just don't want to smell it! And she started it!" BB protested, placing cornstarch on a plate and dredging tofu in it, coating thoroughly.
"Still…" Robin stares at him.
BB groans & gives in. "Fine. I'll respect Cy's decision."
"And…"
"And I won't complain."
"And…"
"Sorry, Raven."
Robin nods. "OK. We're all good."
Star is in awe of Robin's negotiation techniques. Silverfire notices & frowns. "Hey Star, how about you make some of your famous pudding?"
Star's eyes widen. "You are right!" She flies over to the fridge. "I will make some of my pudding!"
The other Titans make faces. The last time they had tried her pudding, they had ended up in the hospital. Of course, they lied & said it was something else they ate, so as not to hurt her feelings.
Silverfire, on the other hand, was proud of his bringing Star's attention to him. He floated over. "Hey, can I help with anything?"
"Yes you can. You can get spice, brown sugar & prunes." Star smiled, mixing the eggs with apple juice.
The other Titans exchange glances & Cy began to say something when the Teen Alarm went off.
Glad to avoid the pudding, Robin, Cyborg & Beast Boy ran over to the computer. Star watched them, pouting. Then gave up & flew over next to Robin.
Silver was bringing the prunes over when he saw Star next to Robin. He glared, causing his silver bolts to melt the prunes.
Robin turned to the four Titans & frowned. "It's Mammoth this time. He's taking out half of downtown."
"Who is this Mammoth you speak of?" Silver asked, joining the group.
"He's a huge, mammoth-like creature." Robin explains, dryly. He turned to the group. "Now, Raven & Star will take the skies…"
"I'll go with them." Silver offered.
Robin gritted his teeth. "No. They are fine on their own. You'll go with Cyborg. And BB, you're with me. Everyone got their instructions?"
"Yeah." "Yes!" "Sure." "Whatever." came a chorus from his friends.
He noticed Silver didn't say anything, but didn't really care. "OK. Let's go!" He runs to the door, followed by BB. Cyborg gets up & notices Silver's eyes glowing. "Um…Silver? Ready?"
Silver's eyes dimmed down. "Of course. Let's go." He flies to the door, followed by a reluctant Cyborg.
The girls exchange glances & fly out the roof.
15 minutes later, Star spots a HUGE wreckage. "Do you think that is our Mammoth?" she asks Raven.
"I'm betting it is."
"Let us call the boys." She gets out her communicator, but Raven shakes her head.
"Do you really want to deal with Silverfire & Robin glaring & Beast Boy & Cyborg arguing?" she asks, eyebrows raised.
"I see your point." Star closes her communicator.
"I'm glad." The two of them fly in, quietly.
"I'm betting that he went that way." Raven whispers, pointing toward the wreckage.
Star nods & they follow the wreckage. They hear screaming & see a blue blast coming toward them!
Star screams & they dodge it. "I think that the boys are already here." Star says, breathing hard.
Raven nods. "Well, let's go."
The two of them fly toward the battle, but Raven gets caught up in something. She stops, unknown to Starfire, & floats over to where she thought she saw something.
"Hello?" she called out, quietly, getting her powers ready to attack.
"Hello?" she calls out, a little louder.
Swiftly, someone jumps out at her, scaring her & causing her powers to go wild! They hit the roof, causing it to crumble!
Raven controls her emotions & holds the roof up. Except it's too heavy & she begins to shake under the weight.
Just as it's about to fall on her, she hears the someone mumbling something & the roof rights itself.
Raven, out of energy, crumbles to the ground. Except the someone was there to catch her & the last thing she saw was intense, silver eyes staring at her.
Okay, okay. I realize I didn't really introduce him, but I sorta did. I'll completely do it next chapter. I
