Hi! Well, don't be mad at me! I know it's been like a week! I was barfing for 3 of those days and one was Christmas! Grrr… Fine, be mad, but I'm giving you this update as soon as I possibly could:p
Dedication- StarSoSweet
Chapter 18- Day 2, Hour 4, Dim Wits in Distress
"I'm telling you Raven, you should sign up for the costume contest!" Beast Boy exclaimed at the unwilling teenage heroine.
"No," she stated colorlessly. The five teens, now reunited, were headed for nowhere in particular, just walking to see what else there was to be done.
"I think that would be most wonderful. Maybe all of us could dress up as ourselves for the contest!" Starfire stated happily. She was recovering quite nicely from her setback and could not wait for the next event of the day.
"Um… Star… A costume's purpose is to hide who you really are or to pretend to be something your not," Robin explained to her. He noticed they were walking past a smog machine. As it started to spray out the smog he could smell the distinct scent that came with it and could feel the denser air on his bare arm.
"I suppose… Then maybe we could go as each other! I could be Raven and she could be me and…" Starfire started.
"Not a chance. I've been you before; I don't need to be you again…" Raven objected. She saw some little kids inhaling the smog and blowing it back out like they were smoking. "Idiots…"
"Aw, come on man that would be a blast! We would win that contest for sure!" Cyborg finally piped in. "I could be Robin, Beast Boy could be me, and Rob could be BB!"
"That would be fun to see…" Raven replied. Her eyes widened in horror as she saw a teenage boy leaning out the edge of an orange sky car. "Look!" She almost exclaimed. The boy tumbled over the edge and was only hanging on by one hand.
"He can't hold on much longer! Beast Boy, get that kid!" Robin hollered, pointing up at the kid. Beast Boy morphed into a hawk and flew up to grab the kid with his talons, but he let go before Beast Boy could get up there. Then Starfire jumped into action, flying up as quickly as Tameranianly possible she grabbed the boy and brought him down to the ground gently.
"What were ya'll thinking, leaning out of a sky car like that!" Cyborg lectured the idiotic kid. He looked embarrassed but unharmed. When Cyborg stopped yelling he quickly darted off. "You're just lucky we were here! Don't do that again because next time you won't be so lucky!" he called after the boy.
"What a fool," Raven stated the obvious.
"Dude, he looked sort of familiar…" Beast Boy said, as he squinted his eyes in confusion
"I think you're just seeing things. Now, back to the real issue here…" Cyborg began, oblivious to the fact that the Titan's had indeed seen this kid before.
Short chapter I know, but it was another filler and I am still recovering from the flu. So, what'd ya think of it though. The next chapter won't take near as long as this one did to come out. At least, I hope it won't. I can't make any promises. Hope you enjoyed it!
