A/N: I have to go to camp for a while, so don't expect lots of updates for a week. (NOOOOOO!)

Chapter VIII: Mini Mayhem

The girls stayed in the hospital for a few days, and then the doctor allowed them to come home. Robin and Beast Boy stole the T-car and drove to the hospital, getting Starfire, Raven, Bluefire, Whitefire, and Mirgath in the car. Robin jumped behind the wheel, and gently drove them home. Fayrii and Jack were literally bouncing off the walls to see and possibly hold the babies.

"We're hoooooooome!' Beast Boy shouted when they entered the door. Raven sat down on the couch, Mirgath staring at his new surroundings.

However, the young newborns' first hour at the tower did not go as smoothly as expected. Mirgath seemed to have inherited Raven's psychic powers. He would think-speak baby thoughts to everyone as though he was talking. It was somewhat strange to hear a baby tell you he needs his diaper changed.

Plus, remember in "Switched," when Starfire said that even newborns knew how to fly? Well, Bluefire and Whitefire were flying around at a few inches height. Robin and Starfire were running around trying to keep them still. To make matters worse, Raven had been diagnosed with a big problem for her: temporarily emotional.

Robin ran up after Bluefire. "Bluefire, come back," Robin called. The baby continued to fly around. Of course, she can't understand English yet, Robin thought. He continued to run after his daughter. Jumping, he caught her and spun in the air, landing on his back with Bluefire being held on his stomach. The tiny baby giggled at Robin's feat. Robin smiled at the newborn, and stood up, carrying the precious cargo in his arms.

Starfire sat already on the couch, Whitefire under a purple blanket and feeding. Raven was sitting nearby, her cloak wrapped around her and Mirgath while he fed. She was constantly muttering, "Don't bite me. Don't bite me. Don't bite me."

Cyborg had tricked Beast Boy into playing Halo. Currently, Cyborg was walking through the level, chasing after BB. Fayrii and Jack immediately walked up to Robin and tried to take Bluefire from him. Yet Robin kept hold on his child, and a disappointed Fayrii and Jack walked over to Cyborg and Beast Boy, joining them in a game of Halo. Robin sat down next to Starfire, and they switched babies. Now Robin had Whitefire.

"Robin when are we going to sing our babies to sleep?" Starfire asked. Robin thought for a minute, and then checked the clock.

"Probably in two hours," he answered her, and looked back down at Whitefire. He gave the white-eyed newborn his index finger. She grabbed it, like most babies, and proceeded to put it in her mouth. Naturally, Robin tried to pull his finger away. But he found that he couldn't. He tugged a little harder, but Whitefire held it firmly in her grasp, sucking on his finger and squeezing it. Robin saw his finger losing it color.

The kid has one heck of a grip, Robin thought, and proceeded to use all his strength to get his finger away. It finally popped out red and swollen. Whitefire giggled at the look of pain on Robin's face. It took all his willpower not to shout out loud.

A shout of triumph came from the TV. Cyborg had beaten the other three, and doing a victory dance. He shouted again, and the three babies began to cry. There came a unanimous "Shhhh!" from everyone, and Cyborg blushed, before sitting back down quietly. Fayrii jumped up and lowered the volume to minimal,

The rest of the two hours went smoothly, with no loud noise, dirty diapers, or crying, but Mirgath did a lot of thought-speaking.

I'm hungry he called out. Raven looked down at him.

But you just ate she answered. Mirgath seemed to think for a while.

I did?

Yes, you did. I know because you were biting me

What's the yellow thing?

You mean the yellow thing surrounded by red stuff?

Uh, yeah

It's called the sun. It helps you see

WAAAAAAHHHH! It hurt me!

Don't look straight at it

What's straight?

Right in front of you. How did you know yellow and red if you didn't know straight?

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...

Never mind

What's that?

Don't think about it

Mommy, I'm sleepy

Then go to sleep

I can't, I'm scared

What's scaring you?

The big blue thingy

I'll get rid of him. His name is Cyborg

He's still scary. And fat. Can you tell him to go away?

I will Raven answered.

"Hey big blue scary and fat thing called Cyborg," Raven called. Cyborg, mouth open, stood up and faced her. Fayrii, having used a future sense, sat chuckling.

"You're disturbing Mirgath from sleeping. He wants you to leave," Raven answered.

Cyborg was about to say Raven was lying, but he told by Mirgath, That's right you big fat blue thingy, leave me alone!

Everyone chuckled at Cyborg, who stormed off to his room, angry he was insulted by a baby who wasn't even a month old. BB turned off the game station (it's a sign of the apocalypse! AHHHH!) and sat next to Raven. The time passed, and it was time to head off to that sweet paradise called bed. Fayrii and Jack simply fell asleep on the couch. Starfire and Robin carried Whitefire and Bluefire into their crib, and set them down. Starfire hummed a Tamaranian folksong, which was different that what Robin expected. Most of the time, Tamaranian folksongs were loud and not too easy on his ears. But this one was soothing, peaceful, and carried some sort of spell with it. Robin felt his eyelids drooping, and looked next to him at Starfire, and blinked. Then he remembered nothing.
