All that could be heard was the rustling of leaves that were being drifted along each other by the ever-winding breeze. No one was sighted around the area, unless you looked real close. There, upon a tree branch, the boy wonder was found, with a look of sheer, indescribable – boredom.
"Alf, can I please come home, change, and go to the party now?" Robin begged into his communicator, "Please?"
"Alright Master Dick, but you'll have to stay on call in case anything happens." An extremely elderly man's voice was all he received back.
"Yeah, yeah…I got it, I got it! I'll be back at the manor in 10."
"Of course Master Dick."
A half an hour later, Richard Grayson found himself in front of a two-story house where music was blaring, and teenagers were found strung out everywhere in sight. He was now modeling instead of his Robin uniform, a pair of khaki shorts and a green shirt that said, "I May Not Be Irish… but the ladies still love me." But of course, he wouldn't Richard Grayson without his trademark sunglasses. Nobody, with the excuse of his best friends and family, saw him without them.
As he was searching for his friends, he ran into one of his fellow basketball teammates, Roy Harper.
"Hey Richard!"
"Hey Roy! You seen any part of my gang?"
"Yeah! They're all out on the dance floor!"
"Alright man – Thanks!" but then it dawned on him, "Wait… did you say ALL of them? Including Raven?"
"Yeah! Ya know, she's pretty awesome when she's wasted!"
Wasted? "Crap… alright, thanks dude!"
"Anytime Bro!" that's when the red head saw a petite brunette walk in, "Hey Katie! What is up my girl?"
Richard then made his way through the crowd, and when he reached the "dance floor" which was the living room he guessed, he found himself in utter shock. There, in front of him, were his two best friends, Gar and Raven, dancing extremely close together. He also noticed the plastic cups in their hands, which shocked him even further. Their freshman year, the gang had made a pact to never, EVER, drink alcohol, on a count of their powers and right to protect. And speaking of powers, Raven's were breaking things through out the house everytime Gar whispered something in her ear, along with her cheeks becoming a full shade of red also.
"Hey man! Glad you could make it!"
"Oh, Hey Vic! Um, yeah, ya wanna tell me why they broke the pact?"
"Oh, yeah, that… Well Xavier spiked their drinks…along with the punch bowl – but don't worry about him, Bee already kicked him out. Plus, on the up side, at least their telling each other how they feel!"
"Yeah, but on the down side, they won't remember a thing in the morning."
"…and that's how Raven'll want it, too man!"
The two boys laughed at their recent comments and went off to enjoy the party. Little did they know, it was only a matter of time till their lives would change…but will it be for the good or bad?
