Yep, Hogwarts Legacy has been the Harry Potter game I've been waiting for since I read the entire book series back in 4th grade over 15 years ago. I'm definitely going to be absorbed in that for a while.
Anyway, here's the next Episode. This one is a BBxRae-focused Episode. I hope it's enjoyable.
Summary: There is trouble brewing again inside Titan's Tower. However, this time, Beast Boy has no idea why it's happening, and Raven isn't being very forthcoming with why she's been distancing herself lately. It is going to be up to Adam and the others to learn the truth, and hopefully, help these two to realize they are so much more than the 'opposites' they think themselves to be.
The view showed downtown Jump City. It was the middle of the night. Exciting background music started to play.
The view changed.
Ksch! Ksch! Ksch!
Starfire fired starbolt after starbolt down on Overload. He held an arm up, which took most of the hits.
Starfire flew on over him, and the villain growled. "Do you really think hitting me with energy issss going to do any good!?" He yelled angrily.
The view showed Robin coming in. He had his Bo-Staff at the ready.
Pow!
Overload turned quickly and punched Robin far back.
"Oof!"
Robin slammed into Cyborg, and the two of them both fell to the ground. Overload smirked in their direction.
A dark portal formed behind Overload, and Raven came out of it. Her eyes glowed a dark black as she raised her hands above her head. Overload turned around as she spoke.
"Azarath, Metrion-" She started to chant.
A green elephant appeared in front of Raven. Cutting her off mid-chant.
Phmmm!
The green elephant let out a mighty spray of water from its trunk.
Overload rolled to the side, dodging the blast of water. His electric arm reached out, grabbing the elephant.
"Ssssorry bud. That trick only worksssss once." Overload said as he shocked the elephant in his grip. He then chucked the shocked elephant at the still caught off guard Raven.
Wham!
The elephant turned into Beast Boy, and the two slammed hard into each other. Both heroes fell to the ground.
"Ahahahahaha!" Overload laughed.
Ksch!
Another starbolt hit his shoulder, and he turned angrily. "You pessssky little-" His electric eyes widened.
The view showed Adam and Starfire next to a fire hydrant. Starfire was smirking, as Adam brought his sword down on the end of it.
Phmmmmmmm!
A large spray of water burst out, slamming into Overload.
"Aughhh!" Overload screamed. He tried to run out from the blast.
Kschhh!
A long sonic beam slammed into Overload. Keeping him from escaping the watery torrent.
"Did somebody order some water?!" Cyborg cackled with glee.
"Noooooo..."
Overload shrunk, until he was back to chip form, lying in the middle of a puddle of water.
And with that, the fight was over.
Adam walked up to the chip and picked it up off the ground. "Now that's what I call a good day's work," Adam said happily, as he spinned the chip in his hand.
Thump. "Ow!"
The chip fell from his hand back onto the hard ground below. "Oh, oops,"
Robin and Cyborg walked up to him and Starfire. "Way to go, man! Using the good old fire hydrant!" Cyborg said as he slapped Adam hard on the back.
Adam grimaced in pain. "Couldn't have done it without ya spark plugs,"
"Well done, my friend!"
"Way to think with your head there."
Robin and Starfire were smiling.
The view showed Raven getting up off the ground. She was dusting off her cloak. Beast Boy appeared, looking a little sheepish.
"Um, sorry bout what happened there Rae..." Beast Boy said.
"You shouldn't have gotten in my way," Raven said bitingly.
Beast Boy was surprised at her tone. "Excuse me, dude, I was just trying to take down the villain like the rest of us." He replied.
Raven put her hood back up. She looked blankly at him from underneath it. "Maybe next time, you should look to make sure you're not in anyone's way." She said dryly. Before she started to walk over to the other Titans.
Beast Boy harrumphed. "What is her problem?" He said.
He walked after Raven to the assembled group of Titans.
The view faded to black…

(Music Ends)…
The view showed the T-Tower in the middle of the bay. The sun was high up in the sky. And clouds floated lazily along up above.
'Opposites' appeared along the bottom of the view in white bold letters. After a moment, the letters faded away from view.
The scene moved to inside the Common Room. Behind the Titan's couch.
Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!
Two robots were decking it out on the screen up above. A green one, and a blue and white one. The blue and white one looked to be winning.
The view moved to the couch. Beast Boy and Cyborg were sitting in the middle. Their fingers moved swiftly on their controls, and their eyes were completely focused on the game.
Adam and Robin sat on either side of them. Adam was reading a book, while Robin was following the game with wide-eyed bewilderment.
Raven and Starfire sat at the outside edges. Starfire was watching excitedly, but Raven was reading a book as well.
"I'm gonna beat ya grassstain." Cyborg taunted.
"No, you're not." Beast Boy replied.
"I'm gonna beat ya." Cyborg taunted again.
"Nope." Beast Boy again replied.
"I'm gonna-" Cyborg was saying.
On the screen, the green robot suddenly picked up the blue and white one.
Bam!Bam!Bam!Bam!Bam!Bam! Boom!
The robot got punched rapid fire in the face, and then was thrown into the wall. The robot didn't get back up, and the green one faced the gamers with a thumbs up.
"Victory!" The screen blared.
…
Cyborg looked at the game in shock. "You beat me." He said in a shocked tone.
Beast Boy stood up, he was already doing his victory dance. "You got that right dude." He said.
Snatch!
Before Cyborg could say anything, Robin grabbed the controller from him. "Sorry, no rematches this time," Robin said, as he quickly got the next game ready.
Cyborg sat back in his seat and harrumphed. "Fine." He said.
Beast Boy laughed as he sat back down, and then looked at Raven. "Hey Rae, did you see what I did there?" He asked excitedly.
Raven glanced up from her book briefly, and then looked back down at it. "Spectacular." She said monotonously.
…
Beast Boy's smile turned to a frown.
"Fight!"
Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!
Beast Boy looked back at the screen. Robin's red robot was already kicking his green robot's butt shortly after the screen had said "Fight!".
"Hey, I wasn't ready!" Beast Boy said as he got back to playing.
Robin simply smirked as he proceeded to cream Beast Boy's robot. Cyborg laughed at the turn of events.
Beast Boy grumbled to himself where he sat as he lost against the Titan's leader and was forced to give his controller over to Adam.
The view moved to the side. It was the kitchen.
Beast Boy was whistling at the stove. He flipped a couple of vegan burgers up into the air, and then they landed with a sizzle back onto the stove. He was smiling to himself.
"Aw dude, Cyborg is going to be so mad when he finds out what I cooked before he makes dinner." Beast Boy said to himself as he flipped another patty up above the stove.
Raven appeared in the scene behind him. She walked past him to her teapot and started to pour some hot water from it into a teacup.
Beast Boy turned his head and caught sight of her. "Hey Rae, I'm making some vegan patties. Want one?" He offered.
Raven didn't even turn her head. "Tea." She said blandly.
Beast Boy's eyebrow arched up on his head. "Are you sure dude?" He asked quizically. Maybe wanting more than a one-word response.
Raven blandly looked his way. "Positive." She said. She then walked away from the kitchen.
Beast Boy's smile flattened a little bit. "Oh… okay..." He muttered to himself. He was still facing her tea kettle.
The vegan patties on the stove behind him caught on fire.
Beast Boy turned around, and his eyes widened. "Ahhhhhhh!" He screamed in fear.
A fire extinguisher appeared in his hands.
Ksssshhhhhh!
He sprayed its foamy contents all over the stove. Once he was done, the stove was all covered in white suds—a sweat drop formed on Beast Boy's head.
"Yep, Cyborg is definitely going to be mad now." He said sheepishly to himself.
Why did everything keep on catching fire on this stove? Maybe that was a sign that they needed a new stove.
The view moved to the side again. It showed the training room.
Beast Boy was running along on his particular treadmill. Even in his human form, he was hitting 20 miles an hour, and it was steadily getting faster.
"If I improve my human form, my animal forms are bound to follow." Beast Boy said to himself.
Raven walked across the view. She was heading over to a pile of dummies. Beast Boy saw her.
"Hey Rae, watch this!" Beast Boy yelled excitedly.
He increased the speed on the treadmill until he was running at 30 miles an hour. Somehow, he was still running. Though he was definitely at the limit now.
Raven glanced over at him. She looked at the screen nearby that showed how fast he was running.
She didn't even say anything. She shrugged indifferently before she continued walking to the other side of the training room.
Beast Boy looked indignant. "What the heck is her problem with me lately-"
Slam!
His hand slammed down on the up arrow. The screen on the side showed 50 miles an hour.
"Whoa!" Beast Boy yelled in surprise.
The view showed his legs become a blur beneath him as he tried to stay running in his human form, but then in trying to slam his hand down on the down arrow, he hit the up arrow instead.
100 MPH
200 MPH
500 MPH
1000 MPH
Infinity Infinity Infinity Infinity
Boom!
Beast Boy was launched off the treadmill into the back wall.
Duuhuhuhuhuhuh!
An avalanche of dummies set up behind the treadmills buried Beast Boy alive. It was probably the greatest fail ever seen in Titan's training history.
Outside of Adam's initial training montage, that is.
After another moment, Beast Boy's head finally reappeared in the middle of all the dummies. He looked a little downhearted.
Beast Boy sighed to himself.
The scene changed, showing a random hallway.
Adam appeared at one end. He was holding a book in one hand, and an apple in the other. He munched on the apple, as he read from the book.
"Oh yeah, now it's getting good." He muttered to himself.
He was approaching the corner of the hallway.
"What is your problem!?" Beast Boy's voice sounded.
Adam stopped in surprise. "The fetch?" He said confusedly.
No other sound came for a few seconds. Adam shrugged to himself. "I must have just imagined it-"
Boom!
An explosion of black energy burst across the scene. He staggered back in surprise.
Raven came around the corner. She had angry black flecks of energy coming off her skin.
"Stupid, green, self-absorbed little elf..." She was muttering under her breath.
Adam opened his mouth to say something. But Raven blew past as if he wasn't even there. He looked after her quizzically and scratched the top of his head.
"... What happened to her?" He asked.
Adam walked around the corner.
The view showed Beast Boy in the middle of the hallway. He was staring at the wall in front of him. His fists were balled up at his sides.
"Urghhhhh! Freaking Rae!" He growled frustratingly.
His right arm suddenly morphed into a gorilla arm. He raised it up to smash it against the wall in front of him.
A hand gripped his hairy shoulder. Beast Boy turned angrily and looked into Adam's calm eyes. He didn't flinch at the primal look Beast Boy was giving him.
"How about we talk," Adam suggested.
Ksssssss!
Steam came out of Beast Boy's nostrils. He continued to scowl, but his arm became normal.
"Fine, but not here." He said angrily.
Adam nodded. "Lead the way."
The scene faded to black…
