Yet again…hi. I know the chapters are unpleasantly short, but I can't help it! Disclaimer: don't own the titans. sniff
Reviews: DaRkReBeL777 thanks! Don't worry, this is much longer!
Blonde Shadowcat: Oh good! And you like it? YAY! I shall explain cat's day when the time comes…and who knows when that will be? hint: it involves cats. I shall say no more than the blindingly obvious on that topic! Let's hope you're not in a hurry today, because this is the longest chapter so far!
Starfire was behind Jaimie, looking confused. She didn't understand why everyone else was staring at the child, who yanked the tarp off the walls of the alleyway and covered herself with it. She seemed…ashamed. Was this place her home? It looked so dark…dark and lonely. Starfire shivered slightly.
Robin thought hard. This is a homeless kid. What do you do about a homeless kid? Take her to the orphanage? To the police?
Raven and Cyborg's thoughts were similar. Beastboy, however, thought this: This explains why she's all bony. The kid must be hungry. Speaking of hungry, I'M hungry. Maybe there's a salad bar around here somewhere…and with that, he wandered off. He didn't get far, though, because he was his in the face with a big, red X.
A black cape swirled past, and Beastboy said, "Rrrd uggz!" his voice was muffled. The others spun around. Robin assumed an action pose, and yelled,
"Titans, go!"
Red X's computerized voice calmly said, "'Miss me?"
He began to toss red ninja stars-er…X's- at the titans, who narrowly dodged each one- except for Beastboy, who was too busy trying to take off that "X" that was stuck across his face.
In the words of Jaimie Sparx: Robin was all like 'hoowaaaah' and Red X was all like 'You'll have to do better than that' and Starfire was all like 'Hah! Hah! Hah!' and she threw all these laser thingies and then Red X went that way and then the other way and then sort of off to that way over there…and then Raven made him all glowy black and he got picked up and moved over to this corner that was sort of over there…and then- and then- and –gasp gasp gasp and Cyborg started trying to hit him with a blue laser thingy except it was different from Starfire's …I wonder why…and so then he dodged it, and- no, wait…
Note: Jaimie didn't actually say that, that's just what she would have said
"OWWW!" came a sudden yell in the middle of the fight. Red X had stepped on Jaimie's foot.
"Why do you always DO that?" she screamed at him irritably.
"I don't do it on purpose, idiot." Red X's voice shouted back, still computerized, but losing the smooth, casual tone and sounding genuinely annoyed.
"Did so!" Said Jaimie, clutching her foot and hopping in a circle. "and I am not an idiot!"
To the titans' surprise and immense amusement, Red X continued,
"Did not! And you are so!"
"I are not! Wait-I MEAN-"
"Idiot! Idiot! Nyah nyah nah nyah nyah!"
Cyborg looked down about a foot to Beastboy and said "Now that's just scary."
"Mmmmmm hmmmmm." grunted Beastboy, with a rather confused look on his green face.
Robin, however, was a different story. He was doubled over with quiet laughter, and he looked positively gleeful. Raven seemed to have a sudden idea, as she rose up at Robin's side with her index finger in the air. She stayed there, waiting, for a good five minutes while Robin laughed at the still continuing battle of 'am not' and 'are so'. A sweatdroppy thing appeared on her head, soon followed by a pulsing temple vein. Two minutes later, she resorted to tapping him rapidly on the shoulder. Three minutes later, Robin looked at her.
"What? Can't you see I'm laughing like an idiot here?" He told her stupidly.
"Vividly…" she replied. "but that's not the point. I have a plan."
The other titans gathered around and she whispered something to all of them. Then, very quietly, they crept up behind Red X, careful not to disturb the argument, which had since shifted to whether or not you can eat the stuff that's wrapped around fancy cheese. Beastboy turned into a packrat and climbed carefully up the thick black cape and yanked out the vial of xenothium ore. Then Raven summoned some black-glowing rope from the hardware store across town.
(deleted scene: on main street. Little kid: mommy, look! Some glowing black rope floating down the street! Can I keep it? Mom: no, dear, it's EVIL DEMONIC GLOWING ROPE OF DOOM! MWA HAHAHAHAH! I mean- it's somebody else's glowing black rope, sweetie.)
Slowly at first, and then faster and faster, the ropes coiled around him. Jaimie stopped in mid-sentence ("Look, no matter what you say, I've eaten that stuff before and there's nothing-") and watched Red X casually try to dematerialize using the xenothium, and she laughed aloud at his face when he found that it wasn't there. In minutes, the police showed up, and Jaimie started to tell them exitedly how she had help trap the villain, and waiting for the moment when she would be handed a little yellow communicator and be named an honorary titan and get her own room in the tower and get a weird spandex uniform thing and…
The moment didn't come. Jaimie realized that she was completely alone.
Was that long enough? After all, it was more than a page… It only took me so long to update because I had zero ideas for the action scene. Was it funny? Oh, and how about the deleted scene? Was it funny or just stupid? Well, enough of my ramblings…R&R: )
