"Please, tell me--" Starfire began...
"We've been robbed!" Interrupted Robin.
Starfire gasped, "What was taken?"
"I-- Err..." Robin stammered. He was interrupted, though, by the shattering of all the windows in Titans Tower.
"What'd you do to her this time?" Cyborg asked Beast Boy. For they all knew it was Raven who had shattered the windows.
"Me?" Beast Boy countered. "Why is it always me?"
"Because it always is you?" Starfire offered politely.
"But I--" Beast Boy started.
"WHERE IS IT?" Raven's voice could be heard from her room. She stormed out into the common room and glared at Cyborg and Beast Boy, "WHICH ONE OF YOU TOOK IT?" She screamed, "IT HAD TO BE ONE OF YOU!"
"Umm... Raven.," Cyborg said. "We don't even know what you're talking about..."
"YOU KNOW VERY WELL WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT! DON'T PLAY DUMB WITH ME!" Raven screamed.
"Umm... I do not believe they are playing," Starfire inserted herself into the conversation.
"No... You're right, they don't need to PLAY dumb..." Raven shot back. Turning back to them she said, "SO WHERE IS IT?"
"Uhh... Raven, we really don't know..." Beast Boy defended. "We don't even know what it is. How could we take something, if we don't even know what it is?"
"Why don't you calmly tell us what's missing?" Robin suggested. At that, Raven calmed down and sat on the couch. She buried her face in her hands.
"They took my mirror..." She stated.
"Uhh, your mirror...?" Robin questioned. "I don't get what the big deal is."
"MY MIRROR TO MY MIND!" Raven exploded again.
"Oh..." Robin realized. "I see now, but they didn't take it. We were robbed."
"Oh, that's a lot better..." Raven sneered.
"Titans, check your rooms!" Robin ordered.
The Titans check their rooms and reported back to the common room.
"All my stuff's there" Cyborg reported
"None of my belongings were taken either." Starfire said
Beast Boy was still in his room. "AAAHHH!"
The Titans rushed to his room in combat mode.
"NOO! This person is just... sick..."
"What was taken of yours?" Starfire inquired.
"They-- They--" He stammered. "They CLEANED MY CLOSET!"
The Titans fell over anime style.
"That's it?" Raven asked. "They took my mirror and they CLEANED YOUR CLOSET? For once I agree with Beast Boy, this person is sick!"
"AAAAH!" Beast Boy screamed again.
"What now, they made your bed?" Raven sulked.
"They took my diary!" Beast Boy cried, tears streaming down his face.
"Whatever this person's plan is, we'll figure it out and stop them!" Robin stated.
The next day, Raven woke up to a bouquet of flowers at the foot of her bed. She picked them up and looked at the tag...
"From one of your fellow Titans," It read.
Raven went out into the common room where everyone was already eating breakfast.
"Who are these from?" She asked, holding up the bouquet.
"YOU GOT FLOWERS FROM A SECRET ADMIRER?" Beast Boy exploded. "Who wasn't me?" He added silently.
"You don't know who they're from?" Robin asked, thinking the same thing as Beast Boy.
"No, I just found them on the foot of my bed." Raven answered. "The tag says, 'From one of your fellow Titans'."
Robin looked at Beast Boy and Cyborg curiously. None of the Titans saw Slade hovering just outside the window...
Starfire visited Robin in his room after breakfast.
"Robin..." She began. She really didn't know what to say.
"I didn't send the flowers, if THAT'S what you're wondering!" Robin snapped. He certainly didn't want Starfire to know he wished he would've thought of it.
"Oh! No, that wasn't it at all! I just..." Starfire didn't know what to say, after all, that WAS her reason for coming. "Well, it was nice talking to you." Starfire said, walking out the door.
"Mmm, hmm." Robin replied mindlessly. He was thinking about what the thief's plan could be.
The next morning, Robin awoke to a whole new set of black birdarangs on his nightstand. The tag read, "From one of your fellow Titans" just as it had on Raven's.
"Starfire," Robin thought. He went to her room, ignoring the feeling that someone else was in his room. When she opened the door, he asked "Did you...?" He held up the birdarangs. She shook her head.
"It was not I," she answered broken-hearted.
"Then who...?" Robin began to ask. It clicked in his mind suddenly. Raven. He knocked on her door.
"Raven I--" He started.
"What's in your hand?" She asked cautiously. He held up the birdarangs.
"Were these...?" He started again.
"No" Raven cut him off. Robin looked broken-hearted.
"Okay, they weren't from you and they weren't from Star... Something weird is going on here." Robin pondered. "Do you think..." He wondered aloud. "Someone is setting us up here?" He asked.
"Could be," Raven answered.
Back in the common room, Starfire, Beast Boy, and Cyborg were eating breakfast when Raven and Robin entered.
"Well if it isn't the birds who are in love?" Starfire retorted hotly.
"Uhh.. Star, I think you mean 'love-birds'." Beast Boy corrected with a glare towards Robin. "How dare he," Beast Boy thought. "I told him..."
"What are you guys talking about?" Robin asked, blushing.
"There's nothing going on between us!" Raven backed him up, also blushing.
"Uh-huh, sure," Cyborg teased. "We know all about your little 'adventures' at night." Raven and Robin were utterly confused.
"What did you tell them?" They said in unison. "ME? I've told them nothing! YOU'VE been lying to them!" As Raven and Robin argued in the background, Cyborg and Beast Boy continued eating noisily to drown them out, and ignored Starfire rushing to her room in tears, purposely ramming into Raven on her way.
"Now see what you've done?" Robin yelled.
"ME? It was YOUR lies that got us into this!" Raven shot back.
"MY lies?" The argument continued.
"Uh-oh, lover's fight. Gotta go," Cyborg took his pancakes and quietly slid out.
"No reason for me to hand around here anymore," Beast Boy sighed to no-one and left to his room.
Later that day, everyone was back in the common room and everything was back to normal... For the most part. For once, Raven was... happy. Her cloak had turned white again, as it had when she met Malchior, and she smiled almost non-stop. She even made Starfire seem like Miss Gloom-and-Doom, which wasn't that hard since she was still a little sore about what had happened earlier. Not only that, but Robin seemed happier than usual too.
"Okay, what's goin' on?" Cyborg whispered to Beast Boy during their game of Super Smash Brothers Mele.
"What do you mean?" Beast Boy asked, wrapped up in kicking Cyborg's butt.
"Look at Robin and Raven," He whispered. Beast Boy looked and was utterly dumbfounded. Cyborg took this opportunity to throw Beast Boy's character off the cliff. Beast Boy didn't notice, he just kept looking from Robin to Raven and back.
"I'm going to my room." Raven announced. A few moments later, Robin left too.
"What do you think is going on?" Cyborg whispered to Beast Boy, who was still confused.
"I don't know, but I'm gonna find out!" Beast boy replied. He transformed into a fly and buzzed off to Raven's room. Inside, he was shocked to find Raven AND Robin. "She never lets anyone into her room," He thought. "I especially wouldn't think she would let ANYONE in after her mirror was taken." Robin and Raven were lying on the bet together watching a movie. "Nothing out of the ordinary here," Beast Boy thought. "Except for the fact that they're in RAVEN'S ROOM!" Beast Boy fell out of the air in shock. "How could he?" He kept thinking as he left the room. "I told him... How could he?" He transformed into a cute little puppy and walked strait into Raven's room and lay down at the foot of the bed at Raven's feet.
"Beast Boy..." Raven said calmly. Beast Boy looked at her. "GET OUT OF MY ROOM!" Beast Boy turned back into himself.
"But-- But, he's in here!" He pointed accusingly at Robin.
"So?" Raven retorted. "If he jumped off a cliff, would you?"
"Yes, because I can fly!" Beast Boy shot back. Robin smacked his forehead. "There's nothing he would do that I wouldn't!" He continued, pointing at Robin.
"So, if he left, so would you?" Raven asked. Robin looked at her like, 'Are you sure about this?'
"Yes!" Beast Boy said without thinking. "Wait... No."
"Either way, you're leaving!" She said, and used her powers to lift him up, out of the room, and shut the door.
Beast Boy had a look on his face like '--' as he walked away from the room. He went to the only person he could think to tell, Starfire.
After Beast Boy explained the whole story, Starfire asked, "Please, friend, tell me this is not a joke because I am not laughing."
"It's no joke," Beast Boy sat down on her bed and watched her pace back and forth. "The whole thing is true, go check for yourself," He sulked.
"I will!" Starfire stormed out of her room and down the hall. Calming herself down, she knocked on the door, "Friend Raven, I believe Beast Boy is playing a joke on me and I only wish to be sure it is untrue. Raven?" The door slid open and the scene Beast Boy had seen moments before was revealed to Starfire. She ran back to her room in tears.
"Beast Boy! I am sorry for accusing you of playing a trick! It is all true!" She cried.
"Tell me about it," Beat Boy continued to sulk.
"Whatever are we to do?" She asked him.
"There's nothing we can do. They're obviously very happy together and we shouldn't get in the way!" Beast Boy concluded.
"If all they want is to be with each other, then we should leave," Starfire suggested.
"You're right," Beast Boy agreed unhappily. "I'm gonna go pack my stuff," He said and stood up, but Starfire was already busy packing herself. "Do you think we should tell Cyborg?" He asked as he left, but he could see Starfire didn't want to talk about it, so he didn't hang around for an answer.
Back out in the common room, Cyborg was still waiting for beast Boy to get back to finish their game. One-Player games were boring.
"Man, what is taking him so long?" He asked the controller next to him. "If there's a party, I wanna be there." He stood up and headed to Raven's room. You already know what he found. He went to Beast Boy's room.
"You better start packing," Beast Boy told him as he walked in. " You don't want to be stuck here as the third wheel, do you?"
"No, I guess you're right," Cyborg agreed. "It's just... Who wouldv'e guessed, right?"
"Not me," Beast Boy sulked even more.
The next day, Robin and Raven awoke to find themselves alone in the tower.
"Where'd everybody go?" Robin asked. "Their rooms are all empty."
"I don't know, but something's not right here, I can feel it." Raven replied. They had no time to ponder it though, for the alarm sounded.
"Trouble!" Robin.
"I noticed..." Raven retorted. "I think I've lived here long enough to know what that alarm means."
"Right, sorry. It's a habit." Robin covered. Turned out Plasmus was attacking the city's Nuclear Power Plant.
"What are we going to do without the other's?" Raven asked Robin as they headed for the plant.
"We can do fine without them," Robin said angrily. Turns out, they couldn't. Raven attempted to restrain Plasmus with her powers long enough for Robin to freeze him, but he broke free of her grasp and Raven found herself covered in goo. As Robin rushed to her side, he was suddenly flying through the air and stuck to a building.
Back at the tower, Robin and Raven sat on the couch defeated. "I wonder where the others went..." Raven asked.
"Knowing Beast Boy, he went to do the solo-hero thing. Cyborg probably went to Titans East. And Starfire..." He wasn't exactly sure where she went. "Starfire probably went home," He concluded. "To take her place as ruler of Tameran."
Raven nodded and went off the her room. Robin stayed on the couch, too sore to move. The Titans were broken up and the city was in more danger than ever before.
