Raventhedarkgoddess: HELLO! I'm really, really, really (goes on for a while) sorry I haven't updated this story! I've been so busy... But I guess I have some spare time now, so I'm going to try to put an update on this. No death threats, please.

Chapter Eight: Morning Dawns

Raven arrives in the morning...

Raven: What in the name of...!

(The room has been completely repainted. In fact, it's been repainted black. The bed has been brought up- And stained black- and the carpet now has polkadots of black paint. People, also slightly covered in the paint, stir at the sound of Raven's voice. Raven stands behind the only thing that hasn't been painted black; The dresser the carpenters JUST finished.)

Cyborg: (yawns and rubs fingers through black paint on his face) Morning, Rae.

Raven: What happened here? (blinks in shock) What happened to the room?

Gizmo: (gives a very loud, fake yawn and sits up quickly) Gee, I dunno, but I think it looks better! (snicker)

Raven: Mariasha! (shakes shoulder gently) Mariasha, when did you fall asleep?

Mariasha: (looks around blankly) Late... I'm sorry, Raven! It was... GIZMO! (runs forth, picks him up, and shakes him)

Gizmo: Ow, you little booger-brain, let go of me...!

Raven: You're going to help us fix this!

LadyHood: The curtains have been spraypainted...

Raven: Great, new curtains... New paint... New carpet...

Gizmo: You'll never get done in time!

Cyborg: Why don't we just lock him in a closet somewhere?

Mariasha: We're going to need all the help we can get! (still holding Gizmo by the front of his shirt)

D. Montgomery: I wanna help!

Raven: Everyone just calm down...

Gizmo: AHHH!

Raven: We are in so much trouble...

Jamie: Hey, it can't get much worse, right?

Gizmo: (hits the wall in the already-broken spot)

Raven: (smacks head)

Jamie: Er... I take that back?

Gizmo's Room... Going any better in here?

Jynx: (claps hand) It's beautiful!

Starfire: We are only following your plans... I cannot say I like it...

Morph: She's trying to tell you it's ugly!

Jynx: (fire in eyes)

Morph: In a very cool ugly way! (sweatdrop)

Jynx: You did a wonderful job! (huggles Iris)

Iris: Um... Thanks... (choke)

Vandagirl: Don't strangle ma'am!

Jynx: Um... Ma'am?

Iris: (rubs neck) You don't want to know.

Jynx: Um, right...

Blackfire: Can't you all just let me sleep!

Morph: All the sleep in the world can't help you!

Blackfire: (growls)

Jynx: Chop chop! We havea lot of furniture to paint today!

Blackfire: (twitch) More... paint?

Starfire: I am not sure I am liking the idea of this 'paint'...

Jynx: It's neon green for the bed!

Morph: Do you have a thing for neon or something?

Vandagirl: UGLY!

Jynx: Excuse me, it's going to be lovely! Iris agrees, right? (wraps arm around Iris's shoulder)

Iris: Um, yeah, right... (strangled)

Slade's little Hell...

Slade: You actually... did all your work? Without killing ANYONE or... cutting... anything... off?

Beast Boy: They're perfectly normal!

WeazelChick: Yes we are... (gives Beast Boy the 40th bottle of water he'd asked for)

Beast Boy: HAVE TO PEE! (runs away)

WeazelChick: Are you all right, my master? (confuzzled)

Jessica: Hehehehehehe... (still playing with the saw)

Jackie: (joins in)

Haz: Jackie, I don't think you should...

Slade: If you are done, I'm going to have to ask you to stop!

Mammoth: You might not want to tell them that...

Slade: (gulp, cradles arm) You're right.

Dr. Light: They are scary... Scary like RAVEN...

Artemisgirl: Anyway, I want to give you one last tip.

Azareth-girl: Yes?

Artemisgirl: Slade and Dr. Light are our main targets.

Both: (GULP)

Raventhedarkgoddess: Yeah... Sorry it's so short, update within the next three weeks, I promise!
