CHAPTER 4

Beast Boy and Terra walked into the restaurant side by side. Terra sat down on a chair at the counter, and Beast Boy paused to look around. Oldies looked up from their pool game at the green teen, and then continued to play. Beast Boy walked up to the counter, and sat down on a chair next to Terra. He picked up a menu, and looked up at the waitress.

"Do you have a vegetarian menu?"

The waitress stared at him blankly. Terra ripped the menu from Beast Boy's hand, and handed it to the waitress.

"We'll have the usual Pam."

Pam walked away, and the two teens turned to face each other.

"So, I'm guessing you've been here before," Beast Boy said.

"I've been everywhere before..."

Cyborg wiped his hand over his face.

"Can she get any cornier?" He said in a whisper so no one would hear him.

Pam the waitress came back over, and handed Terra and Beast Boy one plate of pie. Terra picked up a spoon, and handed it to Beast Boy.

"Here, dig in."

Beast Boy took the spoon, and scooped up a piece of the pie. He slowly entered it into his mouth, and pretended to look shocked.

"This. Is the greatest pie. In the history of pie."

Beast Boy smiled, as pool balls clattered in the background.

"There's a place a few miles out of Gotham that makes a mean cherry, but for apple, this is the-"

Terra stopped in the middle of her sentence and looked up at the mirror. Slade's reflection showed him staring straight at her. She spun around, thinking she'd see her stalker, but no one was there. Just the old men playing pool. Terra turned back to the counter, and reached into her change purse. She pulled out a few coins, and placed them down.

"Come on, nights still young."

"Put pie!"

Terra sighed.

"You finish. I have to go relieve myself."

'A little too much information,' Cyborg thought.

Terra stood up, and started walking down the hallway towards the restrooms.

"Why can't I just tell him the truth?" Terra said.

She took a few more steps, and froze.

"Cyborg!" She shouted confused.

Cyborg was too stunned for words.

"What are you doing here?"

"I...um...well...you see...er...I...I...I was just going to the bathroom."

Cyborg ran into the mens room, leaving a dumbfounded Terra. Luckily the room was vacant. He pulled out his remote, and made the Time Machine visible again. He pulled open the curtains, and stepped inside. He punched in the numbers 2007 on the remote. A chill filled the room. With a flash of green light, he started going forward to his own time. With a thud, the Time Machine crash landed in the middle of his room. Cyborg quickly stepped out and rubbed his head once more. He paused, and his eyes grew wide with curiosity.

"I really hope I didn't screw up the time line."

He walked out of his room, and into the lounge, finding the rest of the Titans doing what they normally do: Beast Boy and Robin playing on the Game Station with Starfire cheering them on, and Raven reading one of her creepy horror books while meditating. Three of the Titans turned and waved at Cyborg, while one pretended he didn't even exist.

"Hey Cy," they all said in unison, except Starfire who said, "Friend Cyborg".

Starfire, Robin, and Raven all stared at Beast Boy. Robin gave him a little nudge.

"What?" He asked angrily.

Robin pointed at Cyborg.

"What about him?"

"Aren't you gunna say hi?"

Beast Boy turned to face Cyborg. Cyborg waved at him, and Beast Boy grunted. He got off the couch, and unplugged his Game Station controller. Tears filled his eyes once more. He turned back towards Cyborg, and chucked the controller hard at Cyborg's leg. Beast Boy ran passed everyone with his hands in his face, and went into the elevator.

"Nice to see you too," Cyborg shouted, even though Beast Boy was long gone.

Cyborg turned back to the other Titans.

"What's up with him?"

Robin stood up from the couch, and walked over to Cyborg. He a hand on his back, and told him to wait in his room. Cyborg did as he was told and walked into his room. He picked up the remote and put the cloaking back onto the Time Machine. A short time later, Robin entered Cyborg's room.

"Hey man. What's up with BB?"

Robin sighed.

"Remember this morning when you said that you were working on the Landing Sequence for the Time Machine?"

Cyborg nodded.

"I don't know what happened or what you did, but if I can recall, he's been mad at you for the past three years."

"What? Why does he have a grudge on me!"

"He told us that you were spying on Terra and him on their first date and only date."

Cyborg gasped.

"Crud! I really did mess up the time line!"

"What do you mean?"

"After I finished the remote for the landing sequence, I took the Time Machine for a test run. I wanted to see what they did on their date, so I went back in time. And I'll admit it, I did sort of spy on them.

"Ok. But then why are we experiencing a time loop?"

Cyborg laughed nervously.

"Cyborg!"

"What? It's not my fault that Terra had to go to the bathroom and saw me hiding!"

"Cy! Now he hates you!"

"Really?"

"Yeah. Maybe you should go talk to him."

"What do I say?"

"Why don't you tell hi about you-know-what."

Cyborg sighed and frowned.

"Now?"

Robin nodded.

"Fine.

AUTHOR'S NOTES:

Sorry once more for the long update. I've been really busy, plus I got kicked off for a week. I broke some stupid rule that doesn't let you write in script fomation. I was so pissed, but the past is the past and I'm back up and running. I hope every one is liking the story so far.

NEXT CHAPTER:

Cyborg tries to explain the Time Machine to Beast Boy. Will he be up for the challenge to restore Terra, or will he be too busy being mad at Cyborg to even listen?
