If you know KyuubiSama201, it was her party! Tee-Hee! Happy Sweet Sixteen Cenica! LOL! Enjoy!...

As of now, pretty much everyone in the separated groups had regained consciousness, and were all still trying to find their way out of the dense forest.

Now, on the South Western section of the woodland, Mammoth, Raven, and Cyborg were walking aimlessly down a cleared path, with Raven in the lead.

"This is taking for EVER!" Mammoth bellowed as he stopped to pick some berries from a nearby bush.

Cyborg was amongst the first to notice, due to the incandescent rustling of the bush's leaves coming from behind him.

"All right! FOOD!" Cy cried out as he pounced onto the prickly bush next to the hulking villain.

Raven then abruptly stopped and turned around to see what exactly the two boys were up to.

"Uh, what're you doing?" Raven asked as the two boys, whom now had reddish purple smears covering their faces from the berries, which they had stripped clean from the unfortunate raspberry bush.

"Eatin'." Mammoth replied, trying to sound innocent.

"Eating what exactly?" The somber girl asked as she walked over to the bush, and then glanced over to her two 'comrades.'

"I dunno. But they kinda looked like wild raspberries t' me." Cyborg replied as he shrugged.

"And, just how do you know these berries aren't poisonous?" Raven asked as the two boys eyed each other, without care.

"Uh, we don't know." They replied idly at the same time, as a sudden pang of illness struck the two of them.

10-Minutes Later…..

As Raven leaned with her back to a large column of bushes, puking sounds could be easily heard from the other side.

"Oh God!" Cyborg groaned as he resumed his puking.

"Lord help those poor fish." Raven said as she gazed over to the river where they'd been 'relieving themselves of the evil berries.' (Tee-Hee!)

Meanwhile, back up on the North Western part of the forest, on the same river…..

"Aw crap!" An agitated Beast Boy groaned as Kyd Wykkyd and Gizmo stepped over to him.

"What?" Wykkyd asked emotionlessly as BB stood up and presented himself- His prized belt was now missing from his uniform.

"Aww so you lost your stinkin' belt! Just get a new one when we get out of here!" Gizmo suggested as he and his other two teammates crossed back through the thick brush and back out onto the path.

"You mean IF we ever get outta here." BB whispered solemnly to himself as he brushed some tiny leaves from his uniform.

But little did the green changeling know, that loosing his belt, might have been just what they needed to locate one of the other groups.

Back up in Ammoraye's mansion…..

"M'lady, shouldn't we be concerned?" Hirra began as Ammoraye raised an eyebrow.

"Concerned? Why? What for?" Ammoraye asked quizzically as she looked away from the wall-mounted monitors.

"Because, one from the first group has lost a possession in the river." Hirra pointed out.

However, her foolish Mistress wasn't quite getting it, and was taking her servant's warning as merely mindless complaining.

"And, your point?" Ammoraye asked coldly as Hirra's look hardened.

"Well, the green one's belt is floating down to the South Western part of the river, and that's where one of the other groups is. And if they're following the river, they'll see it, and KNOW automatically that one of theirs is close by!" Hirra blurted out as Ammoraye remained clam.

"Hmm. Interesting theory, dear one. However, I say, that we just let nature take it's course, and see what happens." Ammoraye finished as Hirra stood up and bowed to her, with her hands at her sides.

"Yes Mistress." Was all she had to say before she took back her seat.

Back in the forest…..

"Oh man! That's the last fucking time I eat wild wood food!" Mammoth said as he held back another horrendous round of puke.

"Good." Raven stated as she sauntered past them.

And just as the servant Hirra had predicted, the three of them were taking the path right next to the river, when something shiny caught Mammoth's eye.

"Hey, what's that?" Mammoth exclaimed as he held his hand to his face, and eyed the shimmering object, wedged between two rocks in the river's mighty current.

"I don't know, but if it'll help us get any closer at ALL to getting out of here, then let's go check it out." Raven said as she and the two boys made their way down the muddy bank and into the swiftly flowing river.

Cyborg however, was the one to actually go in and retrieved it, and both of his eyes went wide when he saw what it was.

As he took several large steps, and exited the river, his eyes were still wide, with both worry, and renewed hope for escaping the forest.

"So, what was it?" Raven asked as she removed her hood from her sweaty face.

"I-it's-BB's belt." Cyborg announced as the pair's eyes also grew wide.

"Wait a minute! That belt, it was being carried here from the North Western part of the woods! So that means we'll only have to go a few hours more until we're far up enough!" Raven cried out as they tore off running.

Back in the manor……Ammoraye brought her fist down hard onto the table, toppling over the half full tea cups.

"AGH! I can't believe it! Your theory was-right." Mistress Ammoraye admitted, cooling down as Hirra smirked triumphantly from the opposite side of the room.

"But what of it my Mistress? After all, there really aren't any traps but the ones prisoners before them out there. So how are we going to defeat this little problem?" Hirra asked once more as another devious smirk curved out from Ammoraye's black lipstick.

"Hmm, now, now, they think that now they've got us cornered, but all they've done is changed the rules to our little game." Ammoraye said coldly as she and her servant continued to watch the groups on the wall monitors.

Back out in the woods, Raven, Mammoth, and Cyborg were getting ever closer to the riverside location where Gizmo, BB, and Wykkyd were only moments ago.

However, the first group was already heading out, and away from their slowly approaching friends.

About an hour or so later, Raven, Mammoth and Cy finally reached the place where Wykkyd, Gizmo, and BB had stopped to rest, however, they left their fire going, probably so another group could find their place.

"Oh shit!" Cyborg shouted as he pounded a tree nearby.

"Aw come on! They were just here!" Mammoth cried out, with the same amount of anger and frustration as Cyborg.

Just then, Raven noticed a trail of footprints, all heading out from that area, and to a certain path.

"Guys!" Raven shouted, attempting to get the anger-blinded boys' attention.

"WHAT?" They both thundered at once.

"Look." Raven began as she pointed down at the trail of footprints that led to another path.

"Well what're we waitn' for? Let's go!" Cy shouted as he and Mammoth blasted through the bushes and waited for Raven, whom shook her head shamefully as she walked in tow with them.

"Look, the path continues down this way." Raven pointed out as they followed her…..For hours.

"Rae, we've been walkin' to nowhere for almost four fucking hours! Let's just please take a break!" Cyborg pleaded as the hovering girl before them touched back down to Earth to walk.

"Fine, but right after that we're back to walking, no complaints!" The dark one warned as the two boys nodded and sat back down with great sighs of relief.

Finally Raven decided to sit down with them, and with that, their quick break, turned into a hazy slumber.

About two or three hours later, Raven was the first one to wake, as she looked around, she saw that it was nearly pitch black, except for the full moon illuminating the forest from the dead trees above them.

As she turned around, as she turned around, she saw that Mammoth and Cyborg were still fast asleep, and snoring so loudly she doubted that anything in that forest would sleep that night.

Finally, she took a deep breath, and screamed at the top of her lungs- "WAKE UP!" And as she did so, birds and small animals from the trees above flew off and/or scurried about to find a safer place.

"Agh, what time is it?" Mammoth bellowed as he got up and stretched.

"I don't know, but by now the other groups are sure to be sleeping, so we'll be able to catch up, and if we're lucky we'll find one of them. Let's go." Raven ordered as Cy and Mammoth got up and continued to follow her.

Back in the mansion…..

"Hmm, rather smart young lady, isn't she?" Mistress Ammoraye asked as she began to twiddle her thumbs in front of the monitors.

"Yes, if they're lucky, do you think that they'll manage to escape?" Hirra asked cautiously. After all, her Mistress was easily angered when she was told there was a flaw in her plans.

However, she didn't this time.

"No, of course not. They'll wind up like all the others. At first they'll think that their friendship will propel them to the end, but it takes much more than that, and in a few days time, they'll be begging to kill one another!" Ammoraye said grimly as she reflected on her previous victim's actions.

Back in the forest…….

Mammoth had stopped the group to take care of some 'business' and Raven was already getting fed up with her two teammates.

"Phew! That was a good one, I wrote my whole name!" Mammoth exclaimed as he zipped up his fly, and watched as Raven shook her head once more.

Meanwhile, only about a mile or so away, Beast Boy, Kyd Wykkyd, and Gizmo were all fast asleep in a small, brush covered area.

And the second group was slowly coming their way.

"Agh, Raven, I'm serious, we're NEVER gonna find another group out he-" Cyborg then cut himself off as he heard the ground of small twigs snapping, and grass rustling.

He then whipped out his sonic cannon, and prepared to shoot.

However, Raven had a better way to find out what it was.

She led the two boys slowly near the grass covered area, and then into it, and all of them, including Raven (shockingly enough) began to beam with happiness.

"Okay, now we can sleep, and we'll all try and find the others in the morning" Raven finished as she and the other two boys found empty spaces in the brush to sleep in for the night.

As Raven began to dream, she saw Steffauri, she looked slightly dazed. She was slowly walking up onto a porch of a lovely looking home, and it looked like Robin was shouting at her, but, there was no sound.

But as Steffauri turned the doorknob, all that was heard, was her piercing cry, and then total blackness.

"That house's chimney we saw from the manor!" Raven quickly reminded herself, as she turned over in her fitful sleep

But, why on Earth was there another home, out in the middle of nowhere?...2 B CONTINUED! BUM BUM BUUUUM!
