Chapter 10: Cards, Craps, and Confessions Pt. 1
In the not too distant future, the Titans have deliberately tied the author up.
Raven: Well, it's ABOUT TIME you got this story moving again. You have kept us all waiting long enough, and we're all ready to hear this story.
Phazon: Cut me some slack, woman. I do have a life after all. Not my fault that I couldn't get the chapter up as quickly as I could. Along with that, I've lost four of my other stories somehow, so I have to deal with that as well. And by the way readers, if this story does not live up to the expectations of some, I apologize for that, but I have been swamped with other things since the last update, so please do not get mad if it's not what you like.
Terra: In the meantime, I suggest you start the story before you upset more readers.
Robin: Well, before he does, I think we should state, that for the record, the rating on the story will stay the same for there will be an increase in certain situations with suggestive dialogue. So it's best that we warn everyone that would otherwise jump to conclusion before reading the prologue.
Phazon: Adding to that, this chapter occurs straight after the events of the previous one with Terra and Starfire about to talk about Beast Boy.
(Disclaimer) Phazon: All right everyone, to reiterate for those who do not know, I have absolutely no ownership over the Teen Titans or their affiliation with DC Comics. Also, I want to credit FOX because I am using snippets and pieces from the Greg the Bunny episode- Dotty Heat. So I do not want any lawsuits from DC Comics or FOX saying I did not give them credit for their work, nor any men in black showing up to take me away. As you all remember, we left off with the Titans recuperating over a fight with some of Slade's top minions, ending with Terra and Starfire about to converse.
"We're outta here!" Cyborg shouted as he came downstairs, followed by Robin and Beast Boy.
Starfire tried getting up, but her leg was in too much pain from her scuffle with Blackfire, so she remained sitting. "Friends, where are you going?"
"Gizmo's found a new joint where some of the guys can just hang out and talk about stuff without dealing with women," explained Robin to the girls.
"Correct me if I'm wrong," Terra began, "but didn't you three just get through locking fists with those maniacs? Why on earth would you suddenly turn around and go out on the town with them?"
"We'd rather not stay here and converse with you, if we must be honest," Beast Boy admitted, not passing a glance to neither Terra nor Starfire.
Raven came downstairs and saw that the boys were ready to depart, when the doorbell to the tower rang. As Robin went to answer the call, Raven sensed an evil force lurking behind the door.
"Robin, don't!" Raven exclaimed, but it was too late.
However, the "evil force" turned out to be nothing more than Blackfire and Jinx, dressed in normal clothing for the occasion. Blackfire wore a purple halter top that exposed the straps of her white bra and slim-fitting blue jeans, while her sparkling purple eyes had the three male Titans gazing. Jinx wore orange Capri pants with a striped black and green top that also revealed a bit of skin from her otherwise pale body. Blackfire reached into her left pocket.
"Who's ready for some cards?" Blackfire said in a cheery tone as she pulled out a full deck. The Titan girls dropped their guard as Jinx and Blackfire made their way towards them. As they walked past the boys, they could not help but stare at their voluptuous figures. Beast Boy whipped his hand back as Blackfire walked past him so he could get a quick slap of her butt, but Terra gazed at him with a ruthless, cold stare he hadn't seen since Raven.
"Guys, I think it's best we leave," Robin said to his comrades. And with that, he, Beast Boy, and Cyborg were gone, leaving the troop of Jinx, Raven, Blackfire and Starfire, and Terra.
Jinx took a seat on a lounge chair at one end of a table, whilst the others took their place at their own respective spots.
As Blackfire dealt the girls their cards, Terra felt the need to break the ice.
"So what are we playing? War, Spades, BS, pick your game, Blackfire! I'm ready to win some money!"
That caught Blackfire's attention. "So we're playing for cash, huh?" She and Jinx both took out wallets for just such an occasion, but they did not open them. She sent a stare at Terra, Raven, and Starfire to do the same, and only Terra and Starfire left the room. Raven vanished in an instant and reappeared simultaneously with a black purse that must have had some money in it.
"That's a nice new look for your leg," Jinx scoffed, indicating the minor bruise on Raven's leg from a kick she had given her from her fight. Raven got up and was ready to punch Jinx's lights out, but Blackfire intervened.
"Girls, please, let's act like civilized people. Regardless of our confrontation, let's get over that and have some fun. Come on, I mean, loosen up!" As they sat down, Terra and Starfire returned with wallets.
"All right, girls, it is now 8:00 P.M. We will play cards until the last girl is standing. Everyone put in a wager." The girls each put in ten dollars and the game commenced.
(Down 'N' Dank)
"THIS is your idea of a club!" Cyborg inquired to Gizmo. The two of them, along with Mammoth, Robin, Beast Boy, Aqualad, and Speedy went into the bar that appeared lifeless, but within the double doors lay a wonderland for them. Inside they saw guys playing pool, beating the crap out of each other, watching television, be it porn or sports, all while being served by very attractive waitresses.
The teens took their seats next to a television and waited to be served. Until then, all focus was on Beast Boy.
"So BB, is it true about you and Star?" Cyborg asked.
Beast Boy was nervous about revealing that he indeed hadn't done much with Starfire, but the others did not know, so he went along with it.
"Oh, um, well sure. I mean we did a lot of stuff. I, uh, I couldn't have thought of a better time to do it."
"Sure didn't seem that way to me a few nights ago," Robin whispered to Cyborg. "But what about Terra?"
Beast Boy sighed compassionately, remembering the phenomenal experience he shared with Terra not too long ago, a time he was sure not to forget with all that they did, including Terra's words to him.
Flashback
After their midnight session, Beast Boy held Terra in his arms as she let out a long, passionate sigh. His hand slowly went up and down her bare exposed body, as did her hand with his. They shared a short kiss before parting again and lying in Terra's bed. At last, Terra spoke.
"Beast Boy, my love," she began, "I always hoped you would be the one that I would share my first time with, since you helped me get acquainted with the Titans." She then took up his hand firmly and looked straight into his eyes. "Beast Boy, I want you to know that whatever we go through, I will always be your girl and I want nothing to tear us up."
This was something Beast Boy had expected to hear from Terra. "Well, this was kinda my first time too, and…well I don't have any mushy lovey-dove stuff to say except I love ya back."
Terra chuckled as her hand traced Beast Boy's firm back. She gave him one last kiss that turned into a make out session going on for quite a while.
End Flashback
"Yeah…," Beast Boy began, "Terra was great, too. And I bet you two could hear us, right?" He glanced over at Robin and Cyborg, who tried not too look suspicious. Gizmo and Speedy, however, grew impatient.
"Well, spill it, Beast-Brat," Gizmo said. "I want the details on you and that bobble-head Star, first."
"Yeah, man. I mean, did you crank her?" Cyborg asked suggestively.
Beast Boy was confused. "Did I…crank?"
Cyborg explained further. "Y-you know, you and her together: CRAAAANK."
"Oh, oh yeah, um…what?" A figurative question mark appeared above Beast Boy's head.
"Oh, my God, we're going to be here for awhile," Robin said to himself, slapping his forehead.
(Back at Titans Tower)
Raven, Jinx, Blackfire, Terra, and Starfire were now in the midst of their game. Along with the game, they had plenty of refreshments that could last them nearly a week, which would have an effect on their nerves soon enough. Blackfire looked up from her hand and dug into the bag of potato chips next to her.
"I see that, and I raise you twenty," Blackfire said to her sister as she tossed a twenty dollar bill into the already growing pile.
Terra intervened, throwing her hand in front of Blackfire's. "You're bluffing, Black. I see that and raise you twenty. I've got two pairs."
She then revealed two jacks, two nines, and a three. Blackfire laughed to herself smugly.
"That's good…but not good enough." The Tamaranian girl revealed her hand, which was a full house. The girls groaned in sympathy for Terra, who had to hand over her $20 to Blackfire. Terra then remembered why she next to Starfire in the first place.
"So Star, you were just about to tell me about you and Beast Boy?"
"That's right," interrupted Jinx, "the rumor is that you two hit those sheets hard."
Starfire was too busy figuring out what to do with her cards. She wasn't too experienced at this game at all, so she immediately lost focus. "Please, before I do, who are the people on the cards we hold? Aren't we strangling their breath by holding them so tightly?"
A long silence passed.
"Oh yes, Beast Boy. Well, before I begin, I want to say, as you people say on Earth, "for the record," that I did not have any type of sexual intercourse with Beast Boy. And to answer you, Jinx, we did not attack any of the sheets for I do not wish to damage our furniture."
Terra let out a huge sigh of relief knowing that Beast Boy would not do her wrong, and she had more questions, but focused more on the game for now.
Jinx took another swig of her soda and glanced at Raven. "What have ya got, big girl?"
Raven didn't want to cheat, but it was her first time around, and she wanted to make good impression. Closing her eyes, she entered Jinx's mind, revealing that Jinx didn't have any more than one Ace and some numbers that wouldn't help her now. After Raven returned to her own mind, she grabbed a fifty.
"I'm throwing it in, try me."
Jinx threw down her hand, which paled in comparison to Raven's, two kings, a queen, and two sixes. Jinx swore in anger as Raven took the two $5's from her side. Before Starfire could continue, something was wrong.
Blackfire's face looked distorted. "What is that rank smell? Did one of you girls let one?"
Terra sweat-dropped nervously before laughing quietly. "Um, sorry about that girls," she said whilst she fanned her butt on the back of her seat, "but I'm still getting over that food, and all these sweets don't make it easier."
"Well cut it out," Blackfire said, "or else we'll also…end up with sudden outbursts like that." She didn't hear the "Too late" comment from Jinx, however.
Starfire caught the girls' attention as she began to speak. "It was long after the team defeated Thunder and Lightning, and I had forgiven Beast Boy for the prank he played on me with the balloon. He came up to me and said he was sorry again, but then he glued his lips to mine and started sticking his tongue down my throat violently."
The girls, save Raven, laughed and laughed at Starfire's tale.
"When it was over, he said it was a kiss, and wanted to try doing more. He took me to his room, locked the door, and then started getting, as you people from Earth say, 'jiggy with his bad self.' Regardless, this boy pulled and tugged at my clothes until he nearly ripped them off. He said it was all in the good spirit of fun and delight, but I saw through him."
Terra gave Star a puzzled look as she ate some more chips. "Um, so just for the record, you never had sexual intercourse with Beast Boy?"
"NO!" Starfire exclaimed. "I would not spend my time doing such frivolous activities with that pervert! He tried getting behind me, but I kicked him in his "rump" with my boots. However, it did not stop there. He kept coming in my room as a rat to spy on me, and the very next morning, he was in my arms, claiming that we 'did the nasty thang,'" Starfire said slowly.
Raven and Terra could not believe it. What they thought happened between Star and Beast Boy was in fact a hoax. Terra threw her cards down in frustration.
"OK, I get it! This is another one of your jokes you're pulling on me, right?"
However, Starfire stared straight at Terra, not blinking or moving a muscle. "Terra, on my vow as a Teen Titan, I did not have any type of sexual intercourse with Beast Boy. He "put the moves" on me and I had to resist, and no matter how much you disregard this information, I tell you that nothing happened. I give you my word on that."
"You know," Blackfire began, "I think it's best you believe her. My sister might not know much about relationships, but she has standards. I don't think she'd be willing to give herself to Beast Boy, even if it was for one night."
Terra was indeed speechless. She thought Starfire had betrayed her, when she hadn't taken enough time to hear about the situation. "I'm sorry, Star, I guess I just didn't want Beast Boy to have anyone else."
"Apology accepted," Starfire said with a beaming grin. "Now, may we continue with the games?"
It was Jinx's turn once again, and she was set on getting back at Raven.
"All right Raven, you caught me off guard last time with those powers of yours, but I'm ready. I'll put in a $20 and raise you…this ring I've got on." Jinx's ring on her right index finger was store-bought and she figured it'd be a good wager so she wouldn't feel entirely cheated.
Raven, on the other hand, was ready with her own strategy. She cleared her throat and spoke slowly. "All right, Jinx, I'll also raise you $20, and raise you…"
"But Raven," Terra interrupted, "you don't have enough chips to wager."
"No problem, I will raise you…" Raven dug into her pocket and took out an unwrapped condom still in its package and placed it in front of her money, "this rubber right here."
All of the girls' eyes bulged out in surprise, especially Starfire in particular. She squealed like a schoolgirl.
"DONUTS!" She seized the pack, but upon close inspection, she found out more as she read the label. "Latex, easy fit for her pleasure and satisfaction? This is no donut."
"We know that, sis," Blackfire intervened, "it's a--"
"LIFE SAVERS! I love those tiny rainbow candies from the store of convenience. This one has a flavor as well: 'Raspberry.'"
A nearby vase of flowers suddenly exploded out of nowhere. Terra, Jinx, and Blackfire all gazed at Raven, who tried to keep her cool behind her hood.
"I can't tell them who I intended to use that with. I have to somehow play my way out of this."
"It was…for you and Beast Boy?" Raven asked confusedly, but the girls weren't buying it.
Blackfire was curious. "Now, Raven, I know you have a small thing for the boy wonder, but WHEN AND WHERE did you get that condom?"
"I like the minty ones, and the delicious cherry flavored ones too," Starfire continued in the background.
Raven could feel the forces of the other girls surrounding her. She needed another way out of explaining what she had, so she blurted out her last and only available response. "I was going to give it to Robin for later."
"Uh…huh," Blackfire sufficed. "Well, I commend you for taking the proper precautions unlike Terra over here."
"Well, hey, Robin and myself should be ready for any situation in any place. Who knows? It could be anywhere?"
Blackfire, Terra, and Jinx then removed their cards, money, and share of food from their playing table at the thought of a session being done there.
"Raven, you got yourself a deal!" Jinx said as she took a second to drink more of her soda. "My compliments to you, Blackfire, for this is one of your better concoctions I've had the pleasure of drinking. What's that little spice I taste?"
"A few drops of high-potent rum did the trick. Joker lent it to me, said it was good for spicing up parties." She then let out a hiccup, signaling that it was beginning to take effect. Jinx's eyes began to lower.
"Well, witch- girl, whaddaya got for me? I got…some sixes and some sevens, and this king thingy right here."
Raven smiled, she hadn't taken a swig of the soda yet, so she was in the clear. "Well, Jinx, you caught me this time, all I got is two pairs."
"Ha-ha," Jinx chuckled as she began to take the money, however-
"Of tens," finished Raven, taking Jinx's money and her fake ring, but Jinx wasn't satisfied.
"Oh, no! That's bullcrap right there!" Jinx's drink apparently took effect. "I got-I got some other cards right here." She pointed to her fist as she dove across the table and started choking Raven in a drunken frenzy. "GIMME THAT RUBBER!"
Raven, however, was more calm than usual and simply raised her hand, telepathically moving Jinx off of the gothic girl and back to her own seat, restricting her with bars that wouldn't last for long.
"If we may," Raven retorted to the girls, "let's continue the game."
(Back at the Club)
"And make it to go!"
Speedy had just gotten the number of a waitress, but was more focused on his food. Beast Boy, however, kept going on and on about his supposed "time" with Starfire.
"You guys should've seen Star in this thong. Oh, my GOD was she luscious. I got her down, and we just started to do it."
Robin and Cyborg could not believe their ears at what they were hearing. Their two comrades, Beast Boy and Starfire, had gone at it without anybody knowing it.
Cyborg cleared his throat after having it open for so long. "Umm, so to be perfectly clear, you actually nailed her?"
"Totally, dude! I whipped out my gun, my "true" beast, and I was loaded and fit to burst, so to speak." Beast Boy laughed to himself, but Mammoth and Gizmo held their heads down.
"Mammoth no like hearing about illicit sex! Keep it to a minimum."
"I know," Gizmo put in. "That's a bit too much information for my liking. If I wanted to hear this, I'd be at home by my lonesome."
But Beast Boy didn't care a bit. "So what? I mean, I didn't get to the fact that she banged me up against the wall and hit me up about two times."
"BB, when did all of this happen?" Cyborg inquired. "Surely me and Rob woulda heard it if you banged up as much as you did."
It was then that Beast Boy sweat-dropped before the guys, for he hadn't planned on being questioned.
"Umm, to insure you guys wouldn't be bothered, I had the room soundproofed so you guys wouldn't hear it, heh."
"But…why do it for Star and not when you were with Terra? I mean, you and the blonde went down on it hard, according to Star," said Cyborg to Beast Boy and Robin.
"And what did Starfire see in you anyway?" Aqualad asked the green titan, who got more nervous by the second.
"Hey," he began, flexing his "muscles," "how could she resist the charm that is moi? I've got charms, looks, and that no girl could turn down. Plus, she owed it to me, if you know what I mean. And when it comes to this, I'm hung the best."
Fortunately for the others, their talk was cut short, as the waitress arrived with their plates of food, and to the dismay of Beast Boy, one of them was meat, a prime rib for Cyborg. Beast Boy tapped his foot impatiently for Cyborg to say something, but he did not, until a few seconds later.
"Um, BB, I forgot to mention to you--"
"Thank you, Cy, I'll just tell the waitress to take your order back for--"
"Yo, pass me the steak sauce, the food screams 'EAT!' And I'm a hungry guy."
Beast Boy reluctantly passed Cyborg the steak sauce, who snatched it in an instant, poured it all over his delicacy, and wolfed it down all in one sequence without stopping to clear any crumbs from his body.
"This…I gotta tell y'all, is the best rib I ever had! WAITRESS, FIVE STEAKS!"
"Cyborg," Beast Boy spluttered, "I'M A VEGETARIAN!"
"Oh, I'm sorry, TEN STEAKS! T-E-N!" Cyborg yelled while indicating the number on his fingers. Soon enough, the boys, save Beast Boy, were filling their stomachs with steaks while chugging down sodas. Beast Boy was speechless.
"Have you no care for those creatures?"
Aqualad gobbled up another bite before speaking. "Sure, I care for them…right here." He then patted his stomach and sighed heavenly.
"Well guys," Robin began as he raised his glass, "I know we're…evil guys and good guys, but we don't have secrets. So…let's just talk about stuff. After all, we can either sit here and talk the night away, or watch those dancers there on stage…back and forth…swiveling their pelvises. I'll be right back!"
And the rest of them followed.
(Back at the Tower)
"Robin, huh? What do you see in him, Raven?"
Raven didn't want to sound too mushy, for fear of her emotions letting loose, so she had to speak carefully.
"Well, I don't know, maybe it's his charm or ability that has me fond of him. Plus, that fighting of his, and that mask, there's no reason as to why I wouldn't find something in him to like."
"Oh, sure," Blackfire replied as she bit into her pizza slice, "We girls know here you want the boy wonder because you hope he's packing."
Starfire was concerned. "Robin…is leaving us? Why didn't anyone tell me?"
"Meeeeeh," Terra sighed, "Um, Blackfire…I don't have enough chips to put in with my money. Can I bet something else?"
"Such as?"
Terra pondered it for a second, but Blackfire was ready before she was.
"Gimme your shirt for now."
"My…WHAT!" Terra exclaimed.
"You heard me right, now up and at 'em with the shirt, now," roared Blackfire. Terra took her light blue shirt off, leaving only the matching light blue bra she wore and some jeans. Jinx laughed to herself.
"My goodness, those are what that Beast Boy was holding onto? I'm surprised he didn't fall when he went for it. Anyway, I'll put in a $20. I got to win as much as I can before we all get loopy and drunk crazy."
Though Terra wasn't out, she was short on cash and chips than the others, even Starfire. She tried another tactic.
"Let's see, what to do, what to do?" As Terra said this, her hand slowly moved across the table, grabbing portions of money and idly bringing them back as if nothing happened. But Jinx was quick to notice.
"HEY, blondie, we can see you taking the dough."
"What dough?"
In a flash, Jinx took out a knife and stuck it where Terra's hand would have been had she not moved it in time.
"Allllll righty, I see the knife and I'll pass."
Starfire lost her interest in the condom Raven had and got back to playing the game. She was finally grasping the idea and had her own style of raking in the cards and dough. It was her turn.
"Friend Raven, I will now throw in a house that is full. I believe I win."
"Sorry, but I have a straight flush, Starfire, and that means you lose."
Star did not take this lightly, and in an instant, her eyes glowed a violent green and a concentrated beam flared out onto Raven's cards, but the dark one had her own plans. A small shield appeared to protect her cards, and the beam was instantly absorbed by the dark matter. Starfire shook her head sadly before handing over her cards and two fives to Raven.
The effects of the drink were starting to get to the girls, and slowly, they began to feel a little bit…crazy.
"Say, girls," Jinx slurred, "We're all friends, right? Well, I got something that we all can enjoy since we're so close."
The others smiled at Jinx's caring, yet distorted attitude. However, when she began to grimace and strain hard, the girls thought the "something" she spoke of wasn't so special.
"Jinx, don't you dare--"
Blackfire wasn't quick enough. Jinx slowly lifted her butt from her seat and cut a ten second fart that was heard across the living room. "Ah," she sighed, patting her stomach, "much better."
It wasn't until five seconds later that the girls were gasping for air.
"Christ, Jinx," Blackfire gasped, "what is your problem!"
Raven coughed slightly. "Terra, you can relate to her, can't you?"
"Hey, I got a lot to unload, so you're just hearing and smelling the beginning. Besides, I'm marking my territory!"
Terra bawled her fists. "Oh, I'll give you a mark on your territory, all right!"
While they got into a small scuffle, only Starfire was unaffected by the smell, as she did not seem to notice anything different.
"A joyous fragrance, just like the Sverjik craters on our home planet, right sister?"
"Star…just shut up and get ready for the second round."
"Um, Terra, not to be rude, but…what was it like?" asked a curious Jinx, all eyes turning to the blonde.
"Do I have to tell you girls?"
"Sure," Jinx said in a sly grin, "you're among friends."
Terra smiled and picked up a donut from the box, and held it before the girls. "All right, but I'm not slowing down with the content."
"Gladly," Blackfire set her cards down, as did the others, as Terra began to narrate her story of her first time to Raven, Terra, Starfire, and Blackfire.
Raven: All right, you can untie him.
Phazon: Well, it took us a long time, but we made it.
Blackfire: So how much of a continuation is this going to be?
Phazon: Don't know yet, but let's just wait for the responses first. Anyway readers, I apologize again for the tremendous delay and I know I've disappointed some because of that, but I am hoping that this chapter was well worth the wait, and I will definitely be more attentive with it next time.
Robin: Until then, enjoy the chapter and don't forget to review.
