Disclaimer-I do not own Teen Titans(I'd almost forgot about these things ;;)
After gym came lunch, a horrid affair including watery substances and something green, French, and Government. The bell rang, signaling the school day was over, and Raven staggered back into her room. It had been an exhausting day.
"Auditions for the play will be tomorrow after school in the drama room." A raspy voice came over the loud speaker. Soon the sound of loud voices that Raven recognized as Garfield, Victor, and Richard who seemed to be debating something.
"Dude, how are we going to come up with an excuse for Raven as to why we have to disappear for hours upon end tonight?" Gar asked brows furrowed in contemplation.
"Say we have a study group." Vic suggested.
"Then he'll ask to come with. And how am I going to sneak my stuff out?" Gar pointed out. After a few more suggestions from Vic, each more preposterous then the last, his final one being that they hit Raven on the head from behind and tie him up in a closet, then "find" him later when they're done, Richard finally cut in.
"We will say that we have a project we're working on for the Principle. Vague enough to be pretty much untraceable, and detailed so it doesn't sound too suspicious." He said decisively. The other two friends shrugged.
As it turned out they said nothing to Raven. He was sitting on his bed doing homework with his headphones on, and barely glanced up as they walked in. Gar simply grabbed his backpack, went to his closet, shoved some stuff in and walked back out.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Robin, Starfire, Beast Boy, Cyborg, and Terra all sat in a large circular room. On one wall there was 6 television screens, all showing different parts of the school. It was dark except for the light shed by the screens of the TVs. Robin was sitting in a large rolling chair and was staring intently at each screen in turn. Behind him there was a card table, four more chairs, and a door leading into an old janitors closet.
They were all clad in there own different costumes, except for a strip's over their eyes, exactly like Robins. Starfire's was purple, BB's green, Cyborg's silver, and Terra's yellow. And of course due to the Superhero clause 1.4 all superhero's wearing strips over their eyes are immediately disguised.
Meanwhile as Robin was sniffing out potential crime, the rest of them hand a deck of cards and were attempting to teach Starfire how to play Go Fish.
"So if I do not have the card you want I tell you to Fish?"
"You tell us to Go Fish. Like these cards are fish." Cyborg tried to explain.
"Oh! I understand. But then are these cards edible?"
"Close enough, just don't try to eat them."
"Ya, it might be a card-astrophe." Beast Boy said, wiggling his eyebrows at Terra. She laughed while Cyborg simply groaned. Starfire looked slightly confused, but happy non the less. She was used to this. The game began and the group settled down slightly.
Back in Gar's room Raven meditated. She had been much better with her power lately, but then again her, um, father had no real interest in her. She was just a backup plan. And yet she had no idea what the main one was. Raven was glad about that.
Suddenly loud screams were heard. Raven saw that the ground was shaking. She opened the door, hovering a few feet above the ground so that the moving ground would not knock her about. Boys of all ages were running past the door and to the windows. Cursing in another language she pulled out her suitcase from under the bed and pulled out the one and only blue cloak.
Putting in only swiftly she flew out into the hall while people gazed up in amazement. The hood was up so they could not see the face of this strange flying person, but not as surprised as they should have been, Raven thought.
"Titan's, we've got trouble." Robin said staring at the one of the TV screens.
"What is it?" Cyborg questioned, as all of the Titans came to see what was up.
"A centipede guy. A big one by the looks of it." Robin pointed. There, working its way slowly through the courtyard, was a yellow and green centipede the size of a school bus. It had chompers that could bite off your arm, and worst of all it could spit a paralyzing venom.
"Move out." All of them sprang to action. Robin pushed a button that opened a hole in the ceiling and they all flew out of it, BB carrying Robin and Starfire carrying Cyborg, while Terra just flew on a rock.
"Well isn't it Doctor Bugdom. Getting a little overtime on the side, eh?" Robin said, twirling his staff around in his signature move. A small man with large glasses and white coat walked out from behind the large insect. His bushy white eyebrows framed small blue eyes.
"I just want a few students, I promise to return them good as new. Even better than new." Starfire shuddered remembering the wings and extra arms of his last experiments.
"Doing that is wrong. People are not meant to be cross-breeded." She said defiantly.
"Have it your way." The large centipede reared up half it's body, and began to charge towards them.
"Titans, Go!" Beast Boy morphed into a rhinoceros, and charged at the large bug. The Centi spit a large gob of yellow something at him, and BB was forced to deter his path. Starfire was in the air, throwing starbolts at it, which only seemed to annoy it more. Robin tossed a freeze disk at it, giving Terra enough time to open the earth enough for the giant insect to fall in. It was silent for a few moments, long enough for them to congratulate themselves on there victory.
A low rumble. Then suddenly a wave of yellow paralyzing venom washed out, hitting BB, Robin, and Cyborg. Starfire and Terra managed to dodge it as they were flying in the air. The centipede appeared madder then ever. It was about to grab Robin with its jaws when he suddenly turned black and moved to the other side of the courtyard. Starfire and Terra turned around to see someone with a hood over their head.
"Azarath Metrion Zinthos!" The figure said, and both Beast Boy and Cyborg also moved over to where Robin was. This gave Terra the chance to open the tube that held the decomposing liquid developed by Robin for these bugs. She was told not to use it unless absolutely necessary because it made a horrible mess. Terra tossed it on the bug, and it shrieked in horror. Starfire and Terra hurried over to the boys, landing beside them and poking and prodding them.
They were so preoccupied they failed to watch Raven as she silently slipped away, going through the wall behind her and to her room. She hurriedly shoved the cloak in the suitcase, and went back to her reading, not really seeing the words, just trying to understand. Why were those people so familiar?
Sorry this one took so long, midterms and all that. Bleh, I didn't like this one very much, mostly because I can't write battle scenes. Don't worry, soon one of the Titans will find out she's a girl. I just need to first come up with how….
