"It was so weird!" Sarah told her mother that afternoon. "The pants that Cyborg were wearing looked exactly like the ones you made," She brought her head down and started writing on the paper before her. "I really don't know what to say," Mrs. Mcallister told her daughter. "Maybe he liked that skirt- um,pants."
"How many times have you seen a skirt turned into pants of the same design made for dolls?" Sarah asked without looking at her mother. "Not many,"
"Oh! Honey," Mrs. Mcallister said reaching in a pocket on her apron. "I found your Starfish doll."
"My what?"
"You know. Your Star- Oh! Whatever you call it!" She pulled out a tall doll with long orange-red hair, emerald eyes, and orange skin. "Starfire!" Sarah exclaimed taking the doll out of her mother's hands. "So that's what it's called," Mrs. Mcallister mumbled. She turned around and walked to the oven. "Oh, you might want to let the dog out. He hasn't gone since this morning." She added as Sarah raced to her room.
Sarah reached her bedroom and opened the Teen Titan sticker covered door. But when she got there… "Bad dog, Rocket!" She yelled in annoyance. She ran over and pushed the dog away from her pink and purple bed. "I can't believe you did this!" She held up the Robin doll and started crying. The dog had chewed every bit of hair on Robin's "Perfect" head, except for a small tuft sticking out of the top of his head supported with dog slobber.
TITAN'S TOWER
"Ah," Robin sighed, walking out of the exercise room and toward the living room. "There's nothing like a good workout after saving the town." He reached the large entranceway and headed for the kitchen. "Maybe I'll have a snack before- Oh, hi BB." He called to Beast Boy who, for some weird reason, was staring at him. His mouth was open and he was drooling all over his perfectly prepared ice cream sundae.
Immediately, Robin knew something was wrong, for every time Beast Boy had made an ice cream sundae, he took extreme caution not to ruin it. "Is something wrong, Beast Boy?" Robin asked. Beast Boy nodded his head slowly, and said, "Look in a mirror." Robin, quite confused, walked to the bathroom and looked in the small mirror that hung on the wall.
"Oh… My…GOD!" His perfect hair was practically gone. And when Robin felt the only non-destroyed part of his hair, he quickly pulled his hand back in disgust. It was gooey, and even sticky. "Hey, Robin!" Robin didn't look but Cyborg was at the door and didn't notice part of Robin's hair was gone because the side of Robin he was looking at was, fortunately, the side that had some (if any) left.
"Look! I found a way that I can dye the pants blue instead of keeping them pink-" Robin turned his head to face the door. "What… What…" Cyborg stammered, but Robin cut him off. "I don't know," He said slowly and somewhat wearily. "But don't you-"
"Hahahahahahaha! Hahahahahahahaha!" Cyborg laughed hysterically, his hands placed over his stomach and was leaning against the wall to keep from falling over. "Laugh." Robin said frowning.
SARAH'S HOUSE
"I know you'll hate it," Sarah said, picking up a pair of scissors and placing the Robin doll on her lap. "But I think you'll feel better this way." She took a strand of the doll's hair and twirled it between her two fingers. Slowly, she opened the metal parts of the scissors, placed the hair between them, and said, "It won't be that bad to be bald," And snipped of the strand of Robin's hair.
"Come on, Sarah," Mrs. Mcallister said through the open door. "It's time to go to church."
"But I thought we were going tomorrow," Sarah complained. "I know, but I think we should go tonight." Mrs. Mcallister walked away. "Fine," Sarah said.
TITAN'S TOWER
Cyborg, still laughing uncontrollably, glanced up at the top of Robin's head and saw a strand of his hair suddenly disappear. Cyborg laughed even harder and ended up falling to the ground and rolling on the floor. "What's wrong, now?" Robin said sadly. He turned and faced the mirror and found he was completely bald.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!" He screamed and started running past Cyborg, who was now about to pass out. He raced to the kitchen to find Beast Boy in the same position as before and still drooling waterfalls. "Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!" he screamed again, now running so fast, he couldn't see that there was a large glass window in front of him. And if he ran through it, he would fall about seven hundred feet ( A/N: I don't know how tall Titan's Tower is!).
But luckily, Starfire was sitting on the couch flipping through TV channels and saw him about to run through the window, and flew in front of him to stop him. "What is wrong, friend Robin?" She asked. But then she saw his bald head. "Ah!" She screamed. "What happened to your-"
"I… Don't… Know…" Robin panted, his hands on his knees. "Beep! Beep!" The alarm went off.
"Not now!" Robin yelled, rushing over to the computer. The screen showed a live video of the local church. It was on fire, fortunately, everyone was outside and it looked like non-of them were hurt.
AT THE CHURCH
"My goodness!" Lesley shouted. "First our school, now this! What's happening!"
"I don't know, Les," Sarah replied as calmly as she could. "But I bet the Titans will be coming to save us!" She put a small smile on her face.
Mrs. Mcallister walked over to the two girls. "Its okay," She said, "Everything is going to be alright." She looked up. "Hey! Who's that?" Mrs. Mcallister shouted. Sarah and Lesley followed her gaze. "Starfire!" They shouted. "They did come! You were right!" Lesley told her friend. "Of course I was! They always come to save the day." Sarah felt herself welling with excitement. But then her smile turned to a frown.
"Wait a minute," Sarah said. "Is that… Robin?" She pointed to the short boy that was hanging from Starfire's arms.
"Okay, Star," Robin said to Starfire. She was holding him, his legs dangling and his hands held on to Starfire's. "Fly easily and the hat won't fall off." Robin had taken black construction paper and cut it out to make it look like his hair. Or what had been his hair. He then had glued it to a black hat so that no one could tell that the whole thing was fake. Unfortunately for Robin, the glue wasn't dried yet, and it was dripping down the hat and on to his face.
Starfire flew downward until she was a couple feet from the ground. She dropped Robin who landed on his butt because he had been in deep thought about his gone hair. "Teen Titans go!" Robin said, getting up and running to the church. But he suddenly stopped and looked around. The eyes of everyone- including the Reverend- were staring directly at Robin instead of the disaster that usually attracted attention.
Robin's nervous expression turned to a frown. "Come on, Robin," Cyborg taunted him from behind. "We're here to do a job. Not a fashion show." A wide smile appeared on Cyborg's face as he ran toward the fire.
AN HOUR LATER
The fire was finally out, but Robin's "hair" was totally soaked, practically in pieces, and quite a sight to see. Everybody was trying hard not to laugh. Unfortunately for Robin, even people driving by didn't see the ruined church, but Robin's so called hair. "Oh boy," He said as he walked across the street on his way back to Titan's Tower.
"You do not have to walk, friend Robin," Starfire told him, following. "I can-"
"That's okay, Star," Robin replied. "I can just walk," Starfire flew back to where the rest of the Titans were standing. Each was on their back on the ground, holding their stomach and laughing hysterically. "Ahh," She sighed and headed back home, too.
Hope you enjoyed this chapter! I thank EVERYONE who reviewed my last one. And I appreciated all the advice and cool ideas! Oh, Regrem Erutaerc, thanks for the idea, but I kinda want to keep this story clean. No offense. It would be really funny, though. And, Vandagirl, I hope that I did what you had said. Thanks!
