MY VERY FIRST 100 REVIEW STORY!
999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999 huggles to KillerLightBulb for giving me this story's 100th review! YOU MUST HAVE YAMS! YOU! MUST! HAVE! YAAAAAAAAAMS!
Oh, I promised I'd be serious. Sorry. (Very calmly gives KillerLightBulb his/her yams)
And I want to thank you all for giving me this honor. Specially in a section as big as Teen Titans. While KLB gets yams, you all get shoes! (gives shoes to all that are reading this).
Oh, and you all get Cosmo plushies too. And now I'm out of stuff. Cept my computer. BUT NOBODY TAKES MY COMPY!
Here is the very special 100-review-chapter.
Hey, I get writer's cramp all the time. I have it right now. And you were right! I can almost invsion you doing a victory dance. And you don't mean Cosmo and Timmy being together, do you? I know you don't, but that mental image...I no likey slash. No I don't. And poor BB. So broken up. But that's good, because now I can do mindless Raveast fluff! And once again, KLB, THANK YOU! And, for what you really came for, yes, the girl is Terra. Hm...the wierd thing is, I actually wrote better when I was only entertaining one person. Or maybe that's just self-critic again. The dreams are in books three and four. And they would...but they'd be SMART clones! But what would be the fun in that? And it may seem BB/Terra at some points, but it is PREDOMINANTLY BB/Rae. And Danny can run...but he cannot hide...unless Raven helps things...
The Political Chapter: Depression and Repression and all that good stuff
That next day was one of the most boring the Titans and their new friends had ever experienced. Partly because no villans attacked, nobody blew anything up at breakfast, and Beast Boy didn't bother Raven while she was meditating, or get stomped by Cyborg in video games, or invent useless stuff, like that infamous bathtub tuba.
In fact, he didn't even joke. He didn't laugh. He didn't even smile.
The confusion of our heroes began at breakfast, around ten. Robin noticed it first. He didn't hear any clomping, or high, screechy, yet amazingly good singing, or any self-pimping ("Ahh! You're good looking, you are, you beast you are!"). Usually, this had begun by now. He just heard some faint humming, whom he assumed was Raven, the only other Titan not at breakfast. Our other heroes were sound asleep.
Then, twenty minutes later, he came down. Everyone's mouths dropped.
He looked like a mess. He, who spent almost two hours each morning in the tub, and then another hour preening himself, had scraps of paper in his hair, which was all over the place. He hadn't changed his uniform, and their were bags under his eyes.He, why loudly proclaimed his presence every morning, just greeted them with an 'mm'. He, who was always smiling and joking, had a pitiful look on his face, as if he'd never be cheerful again.
Cyborg looked up from his morning bacon. "Heya, BB? Whazzup, dawg?" He ran over and held up his hand, wating for a high-five.
It didn't come.
"Mmm." He shrugged. "Hi, Cy."
Cyborg's human eye twitched. "Uhh...that's it?"
"Yeah."
Starfire tried to lighten the mood. "Please, would you not like the daily morning dosage of your various tofu food substitutes? I have prepeared them." She pulled out a platter of tofu stuff from nowhere.
Beast Boy glanced over at the plate without interest. "Meh. Guys, I'm...not really hungry right now. Maybe later..." He turned around and shuffled out of the room. And very slowly, as if he had nothing to look forward to. Cyborg watched him go with utmost confustion, as did Robin and Starfire.
"Uh..." He blinked. "Well, okay then." He walked back to the table. "Man, what side of the bed did Mr.Grumpypants wake up on this morning..."
The faint humming grew fainter and fainter, until it was a mere moan...
six hours later
Everyone was up. Obviously.
Danny was strolling through the halls of the tower, humming some song that was currently stuck in his head, just chilling. Dum de dum de dum de de de da de do...
Hey, he hadn't seen BB in a while. Where had that little guy gone, anyway? He was cool. Though he really had some anger issues. (That, my friends, is an oxymoron.). He must have really liked that Terra girl, whoever she was. Poor kid.
Maybe I should apologize, he thought. It's the right thing to do. He stepped on the elevator and got out at the tenth floor, where Beast Boy's room was. He stepped inside...
Beast Boy wasn't there. But the room...it was so...clean.
I'm not kidding. It was clean. The beds were made. The posters were even. Even his closet was aligned properly. Not to mention that BB had removed all the junk accumulation in there and sorted his Game Boy games by model number.
Now Danny was worried. One of the basic signs of stress in a guy was a sudden urge to clean, to get your mind off stuff. And BB was the messiest guy he had ever met since last week. Seeing his room...this clean...this was bad.
He ran out, and began searching. He dug through each and every room and broom closet on that floor, looking for Beast Boy. His guilt was growing. He needed to apologize. Now.
Finally, he caught a glimpse of a door at the end of the loop. It was a dead giveaway.
TERRA
"Thank you for making it so obvious," he said sarcastically. He threw the door open, not sure what he would see.
He saw tacky colors-and Beast Boy. He was staring at the celing, completely oblivious to that which was going on around him. He was'nt sure what to do first. "Uh...hi."
Beast Boy glanced over. He did not respond.
Sweat formed on Danny's forehead. "Well...uh...look, sorry about that whole crack comment about Terra and all. I didn't even know she existed until now...can...you forgive me?"
Beast Boy looked at the celing. He spoke-to himself, it seemed.
"Danny. He tries to make Beast Boy come...but he will not come...no, Beast Boy will stay here...Beast Boy prefers to be with Terra...Terra is his friend..."
Danny took a step back, and stifled a scream. BB was delirious. And it was all his fault. He decided to approach the situation differently.
"So...Terra...she was...really cool, right?"
"Is. Terra is really cool. Beast Boy liked Terra...but Robin made Terra leave...Robin was mean to Terra..."
He sat up. "It's all his fault. He made her go to Slade. He's the reason that Beast Boy is alone. HE-"
"Okay, okay, calm down. Gotta change the subject...was...Terra pretty at all?"
Even when he was not facing him, Danny could see the stars in Beast Boy's eyes. "Terra was beautiful...beautiful that Beast Boy cannot describe...Danny must see...only then can Danny understand..."
"Okay, I'll see. But...stop referring to yourself in third person, kay?"
"Beast Boy likes referring to himself in third person. Why this is, Beast Boy does not know." He pulled out a picture from his pocket.
It was of Beast Boy, a happy, normal Beast Boy. He had his arm around a girl...
A girl with long, dirty blond hair...big blue eyes...resembling a popsicle stick...
She looked familliar.
But here, she was happy. She was in sensible clothing instead of rags. She wasn't moaning. And she wasn't taking out rage on poor defenseless comic books. She didn't have any rage at all.
Terra...was the ghost that Danny fought all the way back in the Prologue of Book One.
Woah, no suspense there.
Without a word, Danny dropped the photo and ran from the room. He needed to find Robin. He needed to ask him where the PA system was.
ten minutes later
Danny sat down on the back of the couch.
"I call this meeting to order."
Everyone else in the Tower (minus Beast Boy), who had been saying 'blah blah blah' for the past few minutes, shut up.
Danny sighed. "Okay. This meeting has been called in..." He checked his speech. "In lieu of recent events that have turned up, disrupting our daily curriculum which-ah, forget it. I may have found a way to stop Beast Boy from acting like the world just ended."
"Hm?" Raven said. She was the only one not paying much attention. Oh sure, she was upset over the fact that BB was putting himself down so low over a...person... like Terra. But he wasn't annoying her. That was a pleasant change.
"You see, about two or three weeks ago...before this all started...back in Amity Park..."
Timmy raised his hand. "Did you say Amity Park?"
"Yeah."
"You mean like in The Amityville Horror?"
"Possibly. Anyway, back then, I fought a ghost...who fits Terra's description. She was moaning something. It sounded like... Eees Moye...Eees Moye..."
"Doesn't mean anything to us," Robin said.
"Yeah, but it sounds a lot like Beast Boy, Beast Boy. It's like..."
"Like she's in torment over the things she's done in the past?" Sam interrupted.
"Yeah, what you said."
"Uhh...if I can interrupt?" Tucker said. "I've...kinda been having these wierd dreams about this girl. She looked a lot like that ghost from the comic store, who could be Terra..."
Starfire gasped in exitement. "You have seen dreams of our friend Terra? Tell us!"
"Well, she's just kinda meandering around the ghost zone...doing stuff...oh, and I think she got carted off to ghost jail or something."
"Ghost jail?" Robin jumped up. "What do you mean?"
"We'll explain later," Danny said. "Anyway, we'll need someone to tell Beast Boy about this. Y'know, likelive bait."
As you may have guessed, heads turned to Raven. she groaned.
"Why me?"
"Cause you're good at this touchy-feely stuff,"Robin said. "You can do this without messing up horribly."
"Ugh, fine. When do I do it?"
"Right now." Cyborg pushed her into the nearby elevator and set her off. "You have one hour." He smiled.
Danny closed his eyes. All he could do now was hope...
Hope that Raven could do a good job, hope that whoever was threatening them was biding their time, and...
Hoping Susan wasn't watching this right now.
I missed the new Teen Titans. I'll catch it later.
