Guys, I'm pretty sure this is my last chapter.

PS. The judges take longer to make a decision in the final round.

Chapter Thirty-two: "The Envelopes, Please" take three

When Robin and Starfire came back out, they found Cyborg laughing his head off, Beastboy cringing, and Raven extremely PO'd.

"What's so funny?" asked Robin, confused (though he was glad the atmosphere had changed for the better).

"Man, oh man!" laughed Cyborg, "I never thought I would see the day!"

"What?" asked Robin again.

"Dude, quit it!" Beastboy whined.

"These two are on Cloud Nine!"

"You're kidding me!" said Robin, looking at his friends in disbelief.

"What's 'Cloud Nine'?" whispered Starfire to Robin.

"They're dating!" he whispered back, sending Star in an eruption of giggles.

"Aw, come on, dudes!" said Beastboy. "Quit it!"

"No way!" said Robin. "You made plenty of fun of us, so now it's your turn!"

BB moaned in despair. But soon the giggle fest was interrupted by a whistle.

"Hey, Sparky!" said a voice.

Cyborg looked up and blinked. There, struggling against two bouncers, was Karen Beecher.

"Will you please tell these two to let me pass?" she yelled.

"Let her through!" he told the bouncers. They reluctantly let her pass and she quickly ran up to Cyborg and the two embraced as if they were old friends. Then they looked at each other, though still in each other's arms.

"I can't believe it!" Cyborg announced. "You actually came?"

"Oh, come on, Sparky," she joked, "you would really think I would miss a chance to see you blow it?"

They laughed and hugged once more. Then, without thinking, Bee kissed him. It was like electricity had passed through every inch of his body. When they broke apart, they both laughed continuously as he spun her around as if they were on ice.

Suddenly, Robin cleared his throat particularly loud.

They both looked at the bad as a crimson blush crept upon their faces.

"Oh, yeah," said Raven, maliciously, "I'm gonna get alota mileage out of this one."

"All right now, lads and lovies!" said Mod into the mike. "Now we have finally come to a decision! Though it was tough, because both bands were so brilliant! But only one will walk away with the grand prize o' ten thousand dollars. And they are –"

Robin's fists were so tight, he heard his knuckles crack. Beastboy was chewing his nails into a large pile next to him.

"Moment o' truth, ya'll" whispered Cyborg. Starfire cringed.

"THE TEEN TITANS!" yelled Mod's British voice through out the whole theater.

The Titans exploded with excitement. There was much yelling, laughing, crying, kissing, hugging and jumping up and down like idiots. The HIVE, on the other hand, looked as though the world had crumbled to pieces.

"Come on up here!" Mod directed, and the five Titans ran as fast as their legs could carry them, and they ere greeted with thunderous applause.

Then, Ding Dong Daddy handed them a HUGE check with Ten Thousand Dollars and No Cents written in large, black letters. Robin excepted it as Mod pulled Star over.

"So now, love, what is your band going to do with this heap o' money?" As he spoke, the rest of the Titans were forming a small huddle.

"Well, I'm not quite sure…" she answered, truthfully.

"I know what we're gonna do with it," interrupted Robin. Then he turned to Star and said "Here; you earned it, Star." And he handed he the check.

She stared, wide-eyed.

"I-I couldn't!" she stammered.

"I't's not for you," said Raven.

"It's for Galfor," finished Cyborg.

The entire place cheered as she accepted it, amazed. Then, she asked Beastboy to hold it and turned back to Robin. She flung her arms around his neck and leaned forward when he drove her into a dip. The audience let loose and erupted as they kissed for all the world to see.

When they went back stage, they saw a blonde girl trying to get passed the bouncers, as Karen had done, but more aggressive.

"Let me go!" she demanded. "The drummer is my boyfriend!"

"Terra?" said Gar in shock.

"Oh, Garfield!" she shouted. "Tell these imbeciles that I'm you're girlfriend!"

"Do you know this girl?" said one of the bouncers.

"Yeah, I know her."

They let her go and she had a smug look on her face.

Rachel hung her head.

Of course spat Rage. He's going to go running back to Terra just like he always does.

The others seemed to be thinking the same thing; for the air had suddenly turned icy cold.

Terra attempted to embrace him, but he pushed her away.

"I know her," Gar continued, "but she's not my girlfriend."

"What?" said Terra blankly. "You're – you're joking, right? Garfield, tell these guys you have a girlfriend!"

"Yeah, I have a girlfriend," he said, and he put his arm around Rachel's shoulder. "She's right here."

Terra's jaw broke through the stage. Then, the two bouncers once again took her arms.

"But, wait!" she said, franticly. "Where am I going to live?"

Gar cocked an eyebrow.

"You're old enough to get a job."

She was then dragged away, kicking and screaming.

So, that was the night that started the Titans' career. They came out with several albums and did many international tours with their new manager, Steve,from Doom Patrol Records.

Dick and Kori were married in the band's final years. They now are expecting a baby girl around Christmas time. They have already decided on the name: Mari.

Gar and Rachel married a few years later, and then divorced. Then they got remarried, and divorced again. They are currently engaged for the third time. Garfield also owns a small Veterinarian's office near San Diego.

Victor and Karen have been going steady for years now and it's been rumored that Vic's gonna pop the question any day now.

Slade Wilson did try to promote the HIVE, but they didn't get that far because all they could play were pop knock-offs.

As for Terra, well, no one's really sure what happened to her. Although, Dick could have sworn that he saw her the other day at a McDonald's. He would have said hello, but she was too busy asking one of the customers "Do you want fries with that?"

They all have different lives now, and lead different paths. But, they would never forget that wonderful spring vacation for as long as they lived.
