School. Starting. Too. Soon. (where I live school starts the tenth of August. So much for a Summer break.)
If I owned Teen Titans I'd start a channel that plays Teen Titans 24/7, there'd be a Teen Titan movie in theaters right about now, the Raven action figure's legs would bend like the rest of their legs- and she'd actually be wearing blue, the RaexRob junk would stop, Raven would go out with Beast Boy, there'd be a Teen Titans computer game, and last but definitely not least there'd be at least one new episode every week. I still deny claims that I'm obsessed with the show, I simply have a healthy love for it.

Babysitting Troubles
Ch. 9: Dressing Like a Chicken
"DEVIN!" Million-dollar question: guess who screamed that?
"Buh-bye!" Devin chirped before running as fast as his little legs could carry him (a.k.a. about as fast as Flash can run).
"I should have let Trigon destroy the world when I had the chance," Raven said while glaring at the running demon with a look of utmost hatred. Maybe she is slightly overreacting-
'Or, maybe Devin is the most vile child to walk the earth,' Raven thought. Well, that's another possibility.
Raven ran after him. He ran to the disastrous hedge maze. Instead of entering it, Devin got out a lighter and a can of hairspray. There's a reason little kids shouldn't play with fire.
'I am so fired,' Raven thought as she came around the corner and saw the blazing hedge maze. Devin started running towards the house. Raven just stared at the fiery bushes that stood before her. She would've been wondering what to do if the answer to that wasn't obvious: she had to put that fire out.
Raven levitated a hose into her hands and turned it on in a vain attempt to put the fire out. The little bit of water that comes out of of a standard hose is not going to put out a bonfire that was previously a very big maze.
She would've called the fire department- but what type of superhero calls the fire department? Plus, it would have led to some akward questions and there was no way anyone would believe that an innocent looking five year old knew about the lighter-and-hairspray trick. Even if they did believe Devin knew about the aforementioned trick, she'd then be in trouble for letting him play with a lighter even though she didn't- life just isn't fair.
After giving up on the hose ("This thing is useless."), Raven realized if she put a forcefield around the fire it would die from lack of oxygen. She took a deep breath to calm down, to concentrate.
"Azarath, Metrion, ZINTHOS!" A black aura surrounded her hands for the minute it took to put out the fire. She levitated to the ground to admire her job.
"Ovah here!" Devin called. Is there any point in mentioning that he took off running afterwards? Raven chased him into the house.
"Stop right there," Raven commanded once they had entered the living room. A black rope of her power surrounded him making it impossible for him to continue running.
"Hey! Lemme go!" Devin shouted as he squirmed, trying to get loose.
"Not quite yet," Raven said. Her eyes glowed white causing all windows and outside doors to lock. "Now you may go." With that she released him. She would have preferred to keep him bound with her power, but it takes a lot of energy to hold a five year old in one place. He gave her the look then ran upstairs.
"I'm going to bed!" Devin yelled at her.
"You do that," Raven replied. She sat down and read her book. After a few minutes she heard Devin give a cry for help from the dining room. She knew that he didn't need help and that he was actually up to something bad. Unfortunately, the 10 percentchance that something was actually wrong was still a 10 percentchance, and as a baby-sitter it was her responsibility to check it out and make sure he was okay.
When she entered the dining room, she couldn't see anyone else. She turned around to check the door.
"Hola!" Devin called. Raven turned back around to see Devin on the table holding a gigantic water gun.
"Devin, if you dare-" Raven was interupted when Devin hosed her down with the water gun that happened to be filled with syrup. Devin followed this action by dumping a large bucket of feathers on her. The result: Raven looked like a giant chicken- a giant, furious chicken. Devin ran; Raven chased. Finally she cornered him in the living room.
Devin started crying and shaking in fear way overdramatically. Before Raven had the chance to ask why...
"What are you doing!" a man's voice bellowed. Raven turned around. The 'man' was Mr. Young and his wife Mrs. Young were now home (a.k.a. Devin's parents).
"Honestly, dressing like a chicken to scare poor little Devie! It's his biggest fear!"
Black energy surrounded Raven and the feathers and syrup came off.
"Let me explain-" Raven began.
"We have no interest in your excuses. And just look at my house! There's no way we're paying you for this!" Mr. Young said.
"What did you just say?" Raven's eyes began to glow and her voice became demonic.
"Cash or check?" Asked a terrified Mrs. Young.
A week of mowing lawns and twenty dollars later...
"I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY DID THIS!" Raven's scream could be heard in China. The window broke again.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Not the window again!" Cyborg cried.
"Get over it," Raven replied before stomping off, fists clenched.
Beast Boy and Robin walked to the computer Raven had just left. On the screen was a picture of the grimore and a message:
Due to the low population of Azarathians on Earth, this book is now free!
