Hey everyone thank you so much for the reviews. They mean a lot to me. Once I catch up with school and get settled into a schedule I'll try and reply to some of them. Anyway I think I'm going to reveal BB's fear of the school in this chapter. (although most kids fear school anyway I know I do. LOL) Anyway if you have any ideas for this plot plz tell me and I'll find a way to include them. I'm thinking of including two songs into two of my chapters. One I need to find the words to though.
If you know the words to (You'll Be In My Heart) from Tarzan plz send them to me ASAP!
P.S. I might put Static Shock and Gear in the story so tell me your opinion.
Disclaimer: I don't own the Teen Titans but if I did Rae and BB would have shared a fluffy moment in Nevermore, Spellbound, The Beast Within, and The End #3. And it would have been BB comforting her in Birthmark and going after her in The End.
Gar's arm flailed around trying to find the snooze button. Then he remembered he didn't have one. He groaned; the beeping sounded ten times louder because of his animal like senses
"Stupid clock." he grumbled trying to reach it but fell onto the floor. He groaned again and pulled a pillow over his head trying to block out the sound. There was a chuckle from somewhere across the room and he got to his feet instantly. A tall lanky boy was sitting on the opposite bed staring at him. His hair, eyes and skin were a brown color
"Who are you?"
"The name's Virgle Hopkins." the boy said smiling. He was wearing blue jeans with a black muscle shirt that had a gold circle with a lightning bolt going through it on the front. His hair was done in dreads
"Right, well I'm Garfield Logan; call me Gar though. Nice to meet you." Virgle laughed and shook his hand
"I was a bit worried I was sharing a room with a cat for a little bit." Gar rolled his eyes then got dressed and spiked up his hair like he normally did. Outside the door something banged loudly on the wall then there was a soft knock
"It's open." Virgle and Gar yelled. The door opened and Raven walked in rubbing one fist. Virgle jumped up from the bed
"You're not supposed to be in here." he said in surprise
"And who are you?" Raven asked plopping down on Gar's bed. Gar chuckled and continued to straighten his things
"My name's Virgle. I'm living here."
"I'm Raven Roth. Gar is my best friend." Gar turned around to look at her in surprise. She looked serious enough
"I am?" he squeaked. Raven nodded feeling a very slight blush creep into her face
"Okay whatever. You two go ahead with whatever, I plan on spending my last free day lazing about." Raven rolled her eyes as he left
"He seems interesting."
"I woke up and he was just sitting there. How'd you get in here anyway? Don't they have like a hall monitor or something?" Raven's eyes fell to the floor and Gar noticed her shirt was unnaturally ruffled
"What happened Rae?" he asked sitting down next to her
"Some guys kept just being really annoying and stuff so I punched one of them and ran here." she sighed and leaned back on the bed
"Are you okay?"
"I'm fine. I was just thinking that I got angry at those guys without something blowing up and my powers going crazy."
"That's good though." Raven nodded
"I guess it means I'm gaining more control." suddenly Gar's ears picked up unfamiliar footsteps outside the door
"Get in the closet." he said urgently. Raven stared at him until the doorknob jiggled then she obeyed. Gar opened the door and found a tall imposing man staring down at him. He had to lean back to look at his face which was hard and unsmiling
"Can I help you?"
"Maybe, several boys reported that a girl was in this dorm then came into this room. You haven't seen anything have you?"
"No I haven't. I just woke up really." the man snorted then stepped into the room ignoring Gar completely. He scanned the room for a moment
"What's this?" he asked picking up the book Raven had let Gar borrow last night. It was a large encyclopedia of different animals. The man flipped through the notes
"Oh a book I brought from home. I've been wanting to be a zoologist when I get to collage."
"Very well. If you see this girl please notify the office as soon as possible." with that the man left and Raven slipped out of the closet
"How are you going to get out of here?" Raven stared at him for a moment then shook her head
"You can be really slow at times." she mumbled. Gar shrugged remembering that Raven could teleport herself different places. Suddenly she touched his shoulder
"Hang on. Azarath Metrion Zinthos!" there was a spinning feeling then Gar felt himself being dropped sharply onto his back. He groaned and lifted his head. He was surrounded by a large forest then Raven's face appeared in his vision
"What's up?" he asked laughing
"Not you." Raven replied before covering her mouth. Gar stood up and watched her for a moment. After awhile she turned and headed towards a paved pathway. He jogged to catch up
"So what are we supposed to do?" Raven shrugged then jumped as a crack of thunder rumbled close by, seconds later lightning flashed over the sky which was considerably dark now
"Run!" Gar yelled grabbing her wrist and heading for the school building. They finally made it into the lobby and attempted to dry themselves off. Raven wrung her hair out and after making sure no one was nearby murmured a spell to dry her and Gar off
"Where did that come from?" he asked out loud
"I'm not sure, the sky was clear earlier. Come on let's go make sure Miranda isn't doing something stupid." Raven led the way into the student lounge. Miranda, Shari, and Clara were all sitting on beanbags talking excitedly. They looked up as Raven and Gar came in
"Oh Gar! There you are; we were looking for you." Shari exclaimed. Clara got up and started to drag him over to the bags
"Come on and hang with us. You can't want to hang out with Gothika over there." Gar looked back at Raven and was surprised to see small tears in her eyes. She turned abruptly and went to sit down in a far corner facing the window. Gar let Shari lead him over to the bags
"So what do you guys do for fun?" he asked sitting down. Clara giggled
"You're really funny you know that." Gar felt a pang. This girl reminded him of Terra. A few weeks ago they had discovered that her statue was gone. Destroyed. Now there was no hope of ever saving her. (A/N: Remember that it's important –hint, hint-)
"Anyway we were wondering if you'd like to go to the magazine store with us." the girls' tone made it seem like she was telling him to come
"Well I'd really rather play Gamestation or something."
"But that's boring." Miranda whined. Gar stood and smiled
"Sorry but I already made plans and I'm not really one for magazines." he gave a slight wave then walked over to Raven's corner.
Raven fought back tears as she watched Gar talk with the girls. She hated how everyone thought of her as a Goth and never tried to understand her. She knew it was a lie but at least Malchior had pretended to understand. Why was she thinking of that liar?
"Raven? Are you okay?" it was Gar. Raven wiped her eyes quickly and turned to him
"I'm fine you can go back to talking." she said softly. Gar grinned and sat down beside her. Music started playing from a radio and several teens started dancing so no one really noticed them as much
"You're not fine." it was a statement. Raven glared at him but his eyes just let it flow away as if he didn't care
"What would you know about the way I feel?" she demanded softly. She felt Gar tense beside her
"I know all too well what you feel like." he said getting to his feet and leaving the room. There was a noise behind her and Raven turned to see Virgle with a blonde boy walking over
"Hey Raven. Since you're Gar's friend and he's my roommate I was wondering if you'd like to eat some lunch with me and Richie and another friend of mine." the blonde boy smiled
"Come on. Just because it's rained doesn't mean you should mope around." Raven got to her feet and hugged herself lightly
"If you don't mind."
"Well I'm sure our other friend would enjoy your company. She's always saying that she's insane for having two best friends who are guys or something related to that." Virgle said in a light tone. Richie held the door and followed them
"Can I ask a question?" Raven nodded "What's that thing on your forehead?" Raven touched the ruby colored stone that was embedded on her brow
"It's called a chakra. It's just something that kinda makes me unique." Raven hated lying especially about her chakra. It was in fact the center for her powers. Without it she had little control over her powers and couldn't access Nevermore
"Cool. Anyway I'd like you to meet-."
"Terra!" Raven exclaimed in surprise. The blonde girl looked up and her jaw dropped
"Raven! What are you doing here?"
