Chapter 3: Payback, Retribution and Retaliation
Cyborg raised his head from the T-car's windshield and looked outside the garage's window, a red aircraft with black lines and a yellow R on each of its pulled back wings screamed across the blue skies, cutting through the cotton white clouds in its path. A sound of something spilling filled the android's ears and as he looked down, he noticed that his bottle of "Cy's Clean away" was spilled all over the windshield. He gave out a scream that was so high pitched it sounded like a girl's scream
"Robin! I'm so gonna get you for that dawg!" he screamed at the R-Jet which was heading towards the outskirts of Jump City.
"Trips like this always help me think" crossed a thought trough The Boy Wonder's head; he remembered the midnight patrols in the Bat-Jet, during the time he fought along the side of Bruce Wayne, the notorious Batman. The red fighter reached the outskirts of the large metropolis and as Robin noticed that, he punched in some buttons and hit the Master Arm key on his left side
"Patrol mode engaged Robin" said a computerized voice. The R-Jet started making large circles around Jump City and inside it; Robin removed his gas mask and leaned back against the black seat, pondering about the previous fifteen minutes.
"Still nothing…Jeez, why can't I think of a reason? For crying out loud, I'm Robin! The Boy Wonder! There's gotta be like…a gazillion girls just waiting to kiss me and when one actually does, she freaks out? There's gotta be something I did wrong, yeah! Of course there is Robin! But what is it?" He slammed his head against the fiberglass canopy and screamed "But what?!"
The steel door slip open and Beast Boy peeked in, Raven lied in bed, sleeping again, on the background, the Armageddon theme song was still playing, and the boy understood that it was set to repeat itself.
"Look at her lying there…the Teen Titans' sleeping beauty, I wonder what she wanted to tell me" he thought "maybe there's a way to find out" he searched the room until, under a small pile of magazines which were previously lain on the bed, he found it, the meditation mirror.
"I sure hopes this works…Azerath, Metrion Zynthos!"
The red vortex appeared, sucking the changeling in. the rings of red energy which used as a passageway to the mind of the half demon, also known as Nevermore, burned his flesh, it hurt him, but he didn't care, his mind was clear of thoughts and the only thing set in there was one word
"Truth"
"It won't be easy finding her, but I will do it" he said to himself as he ran across the long line of rocks, the red orbs of light hovering overhead didn't emit any heat, even though the light they provided was more than sufficient for the boy to see the path ahead, he was freezing. On his way, he encountered 4 emotions, Happy was playing hop-scotch and when she saw him, she squealed "It's him!" giggled and vanished into the ground, Timid didn't even say a word, she simply disappeared the way she came, Anger, who was busy throwing tiny rocks from one end of the path to the other, constantly swearing and saying "I'll get out of here sooner or later", kicked his stomach, punched him twice and walked away mumbling something about "Even I was offended by that…you pig!"
Beast Boy barely got up on his feet, sighed and started walking it off when he encountered a new emotion, one who was wearing an orange cloak, he approached the new Raven, which in response yawned and scratched the back of her head
"Who the heck are you?" they both asked
"I asked you first" said Beast Boy
"Nuh-uh, I did" replied the tired looking Raven
"Did not"
"Did to"
"Did not"
"Did to!"
"Did not!"
"Did to!"
"Fine!" she muttered "I'm Tiredness, now who are you?"
"Beast Boy"
"Beast Boy huh?" she said while taking a stroll around him "Yeah, Happy was right…you are kinda cute, but what you did was wrong"
"What did I do?" pretended the changeling
"Don't play dumb ball with me" hissed Tiredness "We all know what you did"
"You…" he gulped "You do?"
"…Fuel low, warning: fuel low, warning: fuel low…" repeated the computer's voice, waking Robin from his nap
"Might as well head home for a refuel" he muttered and kicked in the afterburners, sprinting towards the titans' tower. The large hanger door opened automatically and the red aircraft came in, slowing down to a steady hover, the canopy opened and The Boy Wonder stepped out, soaked from sweat and walked out of the hanger.
"This situation stinks…there's gotta be a way for me figure out what to do, a cold shower would do the trick"
Robin entered the shower and shut the door behind him, but in his haste, he left the "Do not enter, radioactive materials present" sign next to the little sink and the door unlocked. Ten minutes later, while he was still in, preparing to leave the shower, an orange hand reached for the door knob and twisted it.
"What do you mean 'she knows'?" asked the shocked shape shifter
"What do you think I mean?" Spit Tiredness "She Knows" a yawn slipped out of her mouth
"B…But how?" the shape shifter sounded absolutely terrified
"C'mon BB, all girl have their little secrets, thing is, Raven got a truckload of them" replied Tiredness, she looked just plain bored out of this conversation
"Hey, girls aren't the only ones with secrets" came a distorted voice, obviously computer generated. Beast Boy looked at the figure coming down from an overhead boulder with absolute shock
"WH…What on earth are you doing here?"
The figure landed into a crouch, rising, it dusted its black costume and then looked up to Beast Boy, still staring wide eyed at it
"Wussa matter kid? Never seen a thief before?"
"Red…X? What are you doing here?!" asked Beast Boy, trying to narrow his eyes, without success
Red-X looked down on himself and chuckled "Oh, so this is what I turned into this time? That suits Raven, pin me up as a bad guy" he grabbed hold of his suit and started pulling, a loud explosion covered him and when the bright red flash disappeared, Beast Boy stood facing Blackfire
"Better?" she asked
"N…No, Blackfire was also a criminal" replied the changeling
"Picky, aren't we?" she muttered and vanished into a purple blast, the smoke cleared out and Beast Boy was in front of the green oozing monster from the "Wicked Scary" movie
"Change! Change! Change!" he screamed, the monster vanished into a green explosion and Beast Boy was now facing himself
"Dude! You're me!" he cheered
"No…I just look like you, see, I'm an emotion to" said the opposing Beast Boy
"Really? Which one?" asked the changeling
"Random memory" explained the strange emotion "Hey Tiredness, we need uh…" he turned to see the orange cloaked figure on the rocky ground, sleeping "Ah forget it" he muttered "Let's go for a little stroll, shall we?" he suggested. Beast Boy nodded and they both started walking towards the endless rocky paths of Nevermore.
"…Word up, up, everybody say
When you hear them call you, gotta get it on the way
Word up, up, it's the code word
No matter where you say it, you know that you'll be heard" sang Robin, he was holding the soap bar like a microphone and was screaming into it. "Okay, shower time is over, time to get out and head for another training session" he said to himself. He pushed to curtain aside, just to face two investigating Emerald orbs, staring at his naked body with astonishment
"Holy crap!" he exclaimed and put his hands to his mouth, seeing that Starfire was still smiling and blushing, he realized his mistake and used both his hands to cover his crutch
"What are you doing here Star?!" roared Robin while trying to hide his body using the shower curtain
"Excuse me friend Robin, but I also wished to enter the fountain of cold and hot water and seeing that no one has placed the sign which bans us from entering I thought it was vacant" Explained the Tamaranian. It was then when Robin's shock sat down and he understood Starfire was also naked.
"Jeez, Star! Put something on for pit's sake! And throw me a towel while you're at it" He caught the white towel with his hand and ran across the room as fast as he could and just before reaching the exit, he turned his head and said
"And just for you to know, I was taking a cold shower, a REALLY cold one!" he shut the door behind him and raced towards the training room, wearing only a towel, his costume at hand.
"Okay, okay… let me see if I got it straight, Raven has astral projection powers, which means she can see things even if she's not there right? And she saw me hiding in the closet and seeing her naked right? Well if she did, why didn't she kill me?" asked the confused changeling. In response, the opposing Beast Boy smacked his head "Are you that stupid? She loves you, you idiot! God! I can't believe you didn't see it straight forward!" yelled the emotion
"Dude, I didn't even know Raven could love!" shouted Beast Boy
"Of course she can! Everyone can love, it's just a bit harder for Raven!"
"Alright! Well, what should I do?"
The emotion grabbed his own green hair in frustration "Ask her out, tell her something, tell her you love her to, help her in this time of need"
"Fine!" he muttered "now how do I get outta here?"
"With grace, softness…" he walked behind the changeling "And a butt load of foot!" the emotion kicked Beast Boy's rear, sending him towards the dark skies which turned into another red vortex "Oh man…" shouted the shape shifter "Not AGAIIIIIIIIIIN!!!!!"
The meditation mirror started bouncing from side to side, the glass' surface turning red, spewing Beast Boy out, and right into Raven's glare
"H…Hi Rae" said the boy, wiggling his fingers
"What did they tell you?" she asked dryly
"More than I should've known" he replied
"Good" she spat "Now strip"
"Pardon?"
"Are you familiar with 'an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth'? Well, it goes for a strip for a strip too. Now do it"
"There's no way I'll-"
"You have to choices, either you do it, or I'll do it for you" she hissed, her eyes turned white and the boy could feel his costume loosing up
"Hold it! Hold it!" he screamed, waving his hands "I can get naked for myself, thank you!" he turned around and stayed in his boxer shorts "Happy now?" he said shivering. In response, Raven shook her head no "The boxers too, I didn't have those"
The underwear were thrown aside, Raven's eyes widened and her face was covered with red hot blush
"Do you want me to do a little dance too?" he squinted
"I've seen more than enough, put 'em back on" she replied. The boy got dressed and hopped next to her, putting his left arm around her waist, pulling himself closer to her. "Tell me a story" he said in a babyish voice
"Fine, this is the story of Dante's Infer-" he pulled her face closer to his and kissed her, at first, Raven tried to pull back, but seconds after, they both had their arms wrapped around each other, kissing passionately. Raven used her powers and the light dimmer turned, making the room darker and darker until it reached complete darkness.
"I love you" he whispered
"I love you too" she replied as they both cuddled next to each other in the darkness
