Starfire shoveled food in her mouth with abandon. Beast Boy's face as he tried telling jokes while chewing several mouth fulls of cereal and milk was funnier than any of the jokes. Jinx kept stealing bacon off everyone else' plate. Raven calmly sipped her tea. Robin flipped a page of the morning newspaper. Cyborg crunched away...
Jinx?
The Teen Titans rapidly turned to stare at her once they noticed her. Jinx simply shrugged. "Hey, I teleport in with a bright pink flash. It's not my fault if you can't notice that." Jinx stole another piece of bacon from Starfire. "And you're supposed to be superheroes."
Starfire watched the piece of bacon leave the pile of food in front of her. Immediately, Starfire bared her second row of razor sharp teeth in a look Robin only remembered her giving Kitten. "GIVE IT BACK NOW!"
Jinx' hand stopped in mid-swipe. "okay", she said meekly. Then she remembered why she was there in the first place. Jinx swallowed hard then said, "On second thought, make me."
"Give it back, Jinx.", Raven said calmly.
"Fine.", Jinx replied. "So what's the plan today boss?"
Raven finished her cup. "First, we get Terra out of bed."

"Terra, you're gonna end up with bed sores.", Raven tried to explain.
Terra hugged her pillow and blanket tight. "Well, I didn't budge and inch for over a year and there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with me. I don't deserve to go anywhere."
Jinx stood by with her arms crossed.
They were the only three in the med bay. Cyborg was on maintenance duty. Beast Boy had left breakfast even before him. And Robin was busy talking to Starfire about something.
"Stop being stubborn.", Raven half pleaded.
"Easy for you to say, hero.", Terra cried. "You think that's it all just hunky dory to walk around and just go on living life as if nothing happenned."
"I'm not saying that.", Raven argued.
"I don't deserve to go anywhere.", Terra continued. "Why are you trying so hard to help me anyway? I didn't try half as hard for anything for you."
Jinx huffed. "Look, blondie. The way I figure it, you owe these people something. If they want you out of bed, don't you owe it to them to do it? Or are you just going to do more to them?"
Terra looked at Jinx as if seeing her for the first time all over again. "Okay.", she said softly.
Jinx smiled in triumph. "I can handle it from here. You go find where greeny got to."
Raven looked back and forth from Jinx to the slowly rising Terra. "um...sure.", she said.
As soon as Raven had left the room, Jinx whirled around on Terra. "You're going to tell me everything. Particularly, whatever you did to feel so bad."

Raven had looked all over the tower for Beast Boy. She didn't find him. Even though this was the first time she remembered looking for him instead of trying to avoid him. She thought that was a signifigant enough situation for her to seek out Robin.
Just as she was about to knock on the door to Robin's room, Starfire came floating happily out of it. She didn't even glance at Raven when she passed her. "Uh, why is Starfire's neck guard on backwards?", Raven asked aloud.
Robin came to the door. He appeared as he usually did. "We're back together. Do you need a more detailed explanation?"
Raven shook her head and her hands out in front of her.
"So, was there anything else?", Robin asked.
"Actually, yes.", Raven started. "Do you know where Beast Boy took off to? And how do I keep him there and out of my hair?"
Robin smiled. "We have an assignment he's particularly suited for. He won't be around much until the end of it."
"Besides, I know having Beast Boy bothering you isn't going to help you deal with Jinx.", Robin continued. "By the way, why isn't she with you?"
Raven's eyes bugged out in realization. "That sneaky bi...let's go."

Raven and Robin raced back to the now empty medical bay. Seeing it empty, then left in even more of a hurry.

Raven and Robin were running down the hall to common room to call the Titans to assemble. Just before they got there, they noticed Jinx and Terra. Jinx was leading Terra slowly by the arm.
"Come on, blondie. You remember how to walk. Make me ressurect you and do all your walking for you too, why don'tcha?"
"Terra.", Robin said crisply.
The blonde girl whirled around. Her long hair swung freely and her robe fell a little too open with the hectic motion.
"What's going on?", Robin asked.
Jinx smirked. "I got her out of bed, just like Raven was supposed to."
"I was talking to Terra.", Robin told her.
Jinx was about to shoot him a nasty look but ended up sneezing instead.
"Is this true, Terra?", Robin asked.
Terra nodded quietly.
"Oh, yeah. Trust the villain that infiltrated your ranks over the one that's always been up front with you. Smart move, Boy Wonder.", Jinx scoffed.
"Stop it, Jinx.", Raven said warningly.
"Stop what?", Jinx asked. "My super evil plan to practice physical rehabilitation so I can rule the world by healing its weak? Oooh, you've figured it out haven't you? My inevitable army of the barely mobile will crush you all! Moo-haw-ha-ha-ha!"
Robin ignored Jinx. "Was she with you the whole time?", Robin asked Terra.
"What was I supposed to do, ogle her getting into that robe?", Jinx countered.
"Or is that just what you would like to happen? Is that how you get your kicks?" Jinx grabbed Raven in a sultry hug.
"Does this turn you on?", she asked coldly. Jinx then licked Raven's cheek.
Raven's eyes turned white. "Azerath Metrion Zinthos."
Jinx was pushed away from Raven by a black blob. Instantly, her eyes lit pink. "Oh, you know you liked it. A lesbian freak show is about the only way you'll ever get this stiff to look at you."
Raven glared at Jinx with glowing white eyes. Then her expression mellowed. She closed her eyes and they returned to a more if not completely human violet. "Thank you for helping get Terra walking around, Jinx.", she said. "That was very thoughtful of you."
Jinx powered down. "Eh, it was worth a shot."
In the ensuing silence, everyone's attention seemed to be drawn to Terra. The thin girl stood sadly, holding the robe closed with both hands.
Jinx raised an eyebrow. "Maybe she could use...I don't know. Some clothes or something?"
