Woo! Chapter 5! Um... woo!

Chapter 5

As Kayley, Ghost and Josh walked through the corridors to the common room there was an eerie silence as if the whole tower was deserted. Kayley could have sworn that the corridors where becoming ever darker as they walked further through the tower.

As they passed Ravens room for the third time Kayley whispered to Ghost "I don't think he knows where he is going."

"I guessed, by the way I really don't want to meet the Titans." Ghost whispered back.

"Why not, any normal person would give their right arm and left leg to see these guys."

"Well I'm not exactly normal am I!" replied Ghost

They had just passed Ravens room a fourth time and Kayley felt she had to say something. "Josh, you have no idea where we are going do you?"

"What gives you that idea?" Josh grunted, annoyed that his own sister doubted him.

"The fact that we have just passed Ravens room for the fourth time," she replied getting annoyed "You can walk around in circles for the rest of the day if you want, but I'm taking Ghost to see the Titans!"

She tugged on Ghost's shirt pulling him along behind her as she walked in the opposite direction. Josh stood there staring at the smug look Ghost had on his face with pure hatred in his eyes.


"Dude where's the remote!" Beastboy shouted as he sped around the room searching for the remote.

"It's on the table." Raven said bluntly to stop him from shouting so she could read her book. She didn't want to have to stop reading because she was at a very interesting part. She just happened to be reading Beastboys diary, but he didn't notice.

Star was having a very interesting conversation with robin about what hotdogs were made of on the other side of the room and if you looked close enough you could see Robin turning a faint shade of green.

Cyborg however was dissecting what appeared to be half of a cow for the evening meal.

The doors to the room slid open and in walked Kayley laughing at Ghost making a very accurate impression of Josh.

The whole room went silent at the sight of Ghost and Robin had a questioning look on his face.

Noticing the whole of the Titans attention was on Ghost, Kayley said "Guys, this is Ghost, I told you about him. He gave me the cloak thing, remember?" She studied their faces for a moment and guessed that they did not remember, or they were so shocked they had a complete stranger in their common room; they hadn't bothered listening to her.

There was only a moment's silence when all of a sudden Starfire shouted "Welcome friend of Kayley's! I am Starfire, the dog sniffing at your leg is Beastboy, Cyborg is over in the kitchen killing something…"

"It's already dead Star."

"Yes and that's Raven reading and Robin is….where is Robin?" Star asked puzzled about Robin's disappearance.

"Star, he is probably bent over a toilet bowl thinking about what hotdogs are made of," Beastboy said as he jumped on the sofa, rolled off and casually hit his head on the table.

"But what is he doing there?"

"Oh I wonder." Kayley said as she made her way over to the table and helped Beastboy off the floor. Just as she did this the changeling turned into a green kitten and started to purr as Kayley stroked him.

Ghost watched as she did this with admiration in his eyes and something occurred to him. Maybe what I'm doing is wrong, they all look so happy. He dismissed the thought and reminded them all he was still in the room with a little cough.

Beastboy turned back to normal and said "Hey Ghost are you staying the night?"

"No I don't think so" he replied. Kayley immediately sat up from the sofa when she heard him say this.

"Why not?"

"Well I've got things to do and…."

"You're staying the night whether you like it or not!" She shouted, then added in a small voice "please?" When she said this she made a face that rivalled the cuteness of Beastboys cute face.

After a few seconds of watching Kayley's eyes grow bigger and cuter he finally agreed "Ok ok I'll stay."

"YAY!" Kayley shouted as she leapt on Ghost nearly knocking him over as she hugged him.

His shocked face turned to a warm smile as he returned the hug.

Ghost looked up just in time to see the Titans exchange glances. Kayley broke up the hug before Ghost realised anything had changed. Robin had entered the room with Josh behind him and he had an angry look on his face.

"Come on, I want to watch T.V." Kayley said ignoring her brothers evil stares. She ran over to the sofa and dived on BB trying to prise the remote from his hands.

Ghost used his powers and stole the remote while Kayley was wrestling with a green octopus.

"Hey no fair" Kayley shouted as a green gorilla sat on her.

BB turned back and said "Who said anything about playing fair?"

While the others were watching T.V. Cyborg covertly pulled Robin aside and whispered "Robin, we've got a problem, none of my senses can pick ghost up, if it wasn't for my normal eye and ear, I'd be completely oblivious to him."

"Right" said Robin ponderously, already formulating ideas, "we'll keep an eye on him."

"I don't trust him Robin."

"Neither do I, but Kayley does and I trust here."

BB poked his head round the door and said "Dude! Your missing movie night!"

"We're coming" Cyborg said as he skipped into the room. Robin followed not quite as eager as Cy.

"Shouldn't we wait for Josh?" Asked Raven.

"Why? You miss him?" Kayley replied as she stuffed a handful of popcorn into her mouth. She looked back at Raven just in time to notice the toaster flying towards her, but she dodged easily.

"Whoa, touchy." Mocked Kayley.

"Your worse." BB added, but didn't quite avoid the sofa cushion thrown at him.

"That's it you asked for it. BB! I challenge you to a pillow fight!" Kayley stated loudly.

Soon the battle was raging and Star had joined in throwing the entire couch at once, while Cyborg, who had also joined in took refuge behind the thrown couch and threw his pillows from there.

By the time they had finished the room was littered with feathers and the remains of the couch and pillows.

"Oops" Star muttered as she surveyed the mess around her.

"Don't worry, we'll shop for a new couch tomorrow and the boys can clean the room" planed Kayley.

"What!" Cy and BB cried out together. "Ok its settled then. Goodnight." With that Kayley led Star away, out of the room, and of to bed.


On the roof a cold breeze lifted the hair of Ghosts face as he stared out towards the city. He pulled a communicator up to his mouth and said "Phase 1 is complete. I have befriended the hybrid, but the other seems aggressive."

"IT DOES NOT MATTER WE ONLY WANT THE GIRL. PROCEED TO PHASE 2." A robotic voice replied.

Ghost turned round and strolled back into the tower unaware that he was being watched.

Woo….
