The week was slow for the titans. Robin broke ten punching bags in an hour. Raven drank 10 cups of tea while watching Robin take the life out of the innocent punching bags in that very same hour. Cyborg and Beastboy played 50 rounds of games in that hour. Starfire was reciting the poem of nothingness during that hour.
"Thy has not anything to do
But to watch the ceiling as it grew
further from the eyes of me
the walls expanding and the worlds coliding
as the sand clock keeps on running.
Wasting time which ticks away
growing wearier as I say
thou has nothingto shall do..." Starfire hummed as she corrected the words of her earthly poem. "Raven? Why do I use thy instead of the word I. Is not I so much more easier to speak of?"
"Its how the old people speak to make the english roll of the tongue."Raven explained as she poured another batch of tea into her cup as she meditated for the past few days. She probably meditated enough for the whole week but she had nothing better to do, no stories to read no fights to pick with beastboy or the fearless leader.
"Thirty nine! Ugh!" Punch. Rattle rattle. "Forty!" Wham. The punching back flew to Raven and shecaught it with her powers. "Nice one boy wonder, thats your elenth punching bag." She stated as she stopped hovering in the air and fell to the ground landing on her two feet gracefully.
"Please hang the other one Raven."Robin asked as he stood there not panting the slightest bit. He was so bored not even fighting with Slade gave him the adraneline rush he needed.
"Hiah ha HAAH!" He yelled as the punching bag flew off the stand and crashed into the far walls and tore apart. "Sir we have ran out of punching bags."Raven said playing along. "Thats okay, I think I'm done for the day."
Cyborg twirled his finger around excitedly not even making the effort to get up and punch his fist into the air and do his victory dance. "Yay..."
Beastboy yawned and wrote down. "150 for Cyborg and 149 for me."
"Rematch?"He asked.
"Got anything better to do?"
"Except stare at the ceiling?"
"Got nothing."
"Your on..."
Raven fell asleep on the couch while she was sitting up next to Robin. So did he. Starfire went to make more bordem pudding. Raven suddenly jerked up. "How long has it been?"
"5 minuted, save your breathe Raven..."Robin said rolling to his side still sitting up while sleeping.
Raven shrugged and planted her head on Robin's lap and used it as a cushion. None of the titans mentioned anything about it, Raven and Robin had been becoming alot closer since there were no interuptions or things to do for the past few weeks.
After ten minutes Robin shot up. "How long has it been?" He asked noticing Raven had used him as a pillow. "10 minutes Robin, go back to sleep." Robin stroked Raven's hair gently as he stared off absent mindly.
Out of boredom Cyborg went to work on his car and while the birds were still asleep beastboy dragged Starfire to Raven's room. "Lets sneak in."He motioned as he opened her unlocked door. "I do not think we should be doing this, it does not feel right, it is not right."
"You wanna go make more pudding of boredness?"
Starfire sighed."Lets go."
The wondered around aimlessly and Beastboy found a board game,"Hey I didn't know Raven played board games, c'mon lets go get everyone to play." Starfire squealed. "How right you are, it would be joyous if we'd play this bored games that humans play when they are bored.
"Guys, lets play a bored game." Beastboy announced. "Cool."Cyborg said as Robin and Raven woke up. "Sure, why not?" Robin remarked as everyone turned to look at Raven asking for her approval. "Wanna play Raven? What do you say, it could be fun."Robin said persuading her.
"I'ld like to play as long as I can use this rotting brain of mine."Raven said getting of the couch as they circled around the floor. Raven gasped once she laid eyes on the bored game. "We must not play that."
"Why not friend Raven?"Starfire asked clearly puzzled.
"Beastboy you got that from my room. You mustn't play it."
"Why?"
"Because this game of life you are playing is not the same as the family friendly version we play."
"You mean there are R rated pictures inside?"Beastboy said turning into a dog panting.
"You wish!"Cyborg said whacking the back of beastboy's head.
"Nobody wants to see nudepeople other than you, besides its disrespectful."Robin said crossing his arms.
"Dude, get a life, its not nude ones! Its R rated..."
"This game doesn't contain pictures that aren't to be seen."Raven said getting the other titans attentions.
"This game of life can change, it predicts things that will happen in the future, the person that plays it will know who they're getting married to, if they do or dont, how many children their getting, what they'll get for their chemistry test!"Raven boomed.
"Dude, we dont go to school." Raven glared menancingly at beastboy as he shrugged.
"But whats the harm of playing it?"Cyborg asked.
"I do not understand, this game predicts the future? I do wish to play this game, I would want to know what the future is going to be like for me."Starfire said.
Robin shook his head, he did not want to know what was happening overtime but this had gotten him curious.
"There is nothing wrong with playing this game, this is how I found out that I was going to be the portal this is how I found out about the prophecy this is how I learned that this whole world was going to die before my young birthday that it was suppose to be revealed, I dont think you want to find out what is going to happen when your older, fate can change, but, its best not to take any chances..."
"But we can still play it right?"Beastboy asked stupidly that remark recieved a slap on his head given ever so kindly from Robin.
"You can play it, but it depends whether you want to or not."Cyborg siad wisely.
"I do wish to see what the future is going to be like for me."Starfire said.
"And we can change fate right? As long as we have hope."Beastboy said
"It would be cool to see what new invetion I'm gonna build next."Cyborg stated.
Raven looked at Robin and sawhis blank andbothered expression.She smiled reasuringly.
"I guess we can play it..."Raven said.
"I dont want to play it."Robin stated quietly. Everyone turned around to look at him with utter shock. "But friend Robin, do you not wish to learn your destiny?" "Nobody deserves to learn their destiny." He repelled in denial. "C'mon man, dont be such a partay pooper."
"Robin, this game isn't accurate, it may change every second but they said I was to destroy the world, my friends my family innocent people and the ones I love but that never happened, this game is living proof that you can change your destiny, besides."Raven said out of character, "I'm so bored."She droned the last sentence out of her mouth.
Robin looked at Raven's eyes and saw nothing near anxious and sighed.
"Alright alright you got me. Lets play."Robin said as the other cheered
