Chapter 4

Robbery

Raven and Beast Boy walked silently toward their destination.

Rae seemed preoccupied and frustrated as she frowned, staring at the ground.

He would glance at her every now and then but didn't say anything…He didn't know what to say. If Jinx was telling him the truth about Raven then that meant…

"She told you, didn't she?"

BB looked over to see she had the same expression, "About my question being a touchy subject?" He asked.

"You know what I'm talking about Beast Boy. Don't act dum; I know you're not as dum as you act." Her frown seemed to fade a little.

"She told me you weren't the same Raven I knew; that you just acted like it around me." The changeling prayed Jinx was lying because he had a bad feeling about the whole idea about how she had changed.

Raven finally looked up and stared him in the eye, "She was right."

The changeling felt as if he felt his breath stop as he stared back hopefully.

She smiled at him, catching him by surprise, "It's a good thing though."

Beast Boy noticed nothing exploded. "You can feel without things exploding?"

Rae nodded as he gave her a hug, smiling widely.

"That's great Rae! Why would you hide something like that?" He let her go to see her smile gone.

She looked confused, "Because it would mean the impossible…I would have to…Beast Boy, I would have to be in…"

"In what?" He asked, biting his lip.

"I would have to be in love." The dark girl told him.

The green teen felt something caught in his throat, "Who?"

"I…I don't know."

Battle with Hive against Titans (Happening at the same time)

"What are you guys up to now?" Robin asked Jinx.

She smirked, "Why do you always ask when you know I'm not going to give you an answer?"

The Boy Wonder frowned, "Titans, go!" He ran forward and jumped, shooting a kick at Gizmo who just side stepped.

"You'll have to do better than that snot-sniffer!" He taunted.

Starfire shot starbolts at Jinx.

Jinx did back flips to avoid them and smiled at the orange girl, "Isn't your team two members short?"

"What do you care," she answered angrily.

The witch shrugged, "I don't but I heard they left town."

Star stopped her attack and her eyes stopped glowing, "They left?"

Mammoth threw a boulder and knocked her unconscious.

Jinx stood over her smiling, "You were always the worried one."

Cyborg shot his sonic cannon at Mammoth, "Boo-ya!"

Back with Rae & BB

They broke into the back of the store and took boxes of food as Raven teleported it all back to their home and came back for the next load.

BB, who had been too curious, opened a door to see an employer, "Oops." He shut the door, "Rae, we gotta get outta here!"

Battle

Everyone's communicator's rung as they were informed of a robbery.

Jinx, Mammoth, and Gizmo went into overtime.

"I'll get it," Cyborg shouted as he ran off.

When he arrived he saw the same people who stole from the bank. "What are you two up to?"

The guy glanced at the girl as she motioned for him to run. He started running and turned into a humming bird when he was out of sight.

The girl stared at Cyborg before breaking out into a run.

He followed but when they turned the corner she was gone. Cy looked on his scanner and saw something moving, fast. He followed it and saw the girl enter an abandoned building but then came out.

Raven had used a spell to change her voice. "This is just stalking Cyborg."

He came out from hiding, "Who are you?"

"What? Don't recognize me?"

He looked confused.

"Well I guess you really never did pay much attention to me then," she glared.

"Raven?"

She nodded.

"But that wasn't BB," he asked, nervous.

"Where else would he be?" Rae rolled her eyes and changed her voice back. "And what's so wrong about it, huh?"

"But you're criminals now." He was still shocked.

"Criminals is such a strong word. I mean he hasn't even graduated yet. I on the other hand graduated quite some time ago but I'm still not a criminal." She folded her arms. "Let it go Cyborg. Can't we still be friends? At least for Beast Boy?"

Cy didn't say anything.

"We can't go back to the titans now anyhow. I'm surprised the grass stain got into the titans and that you let me become one. You went to the Hive once Cyborg. Don't you miss it? The being able to do what you want whenever you want?" She frowned.

"No, I chose the titans because you guys are my friends; not because I got the greatest joy out of it. I never thought you'd go to this for that."

"Why? Because I'm not supposed to feel? I chose my friends over the comfort of basic necessities," Raven said plainly.

The tin man's communicator rung and he opened it.

"The Hive ran for it and got away. Did you catch the criminal at the robbery?" Robin asked.

"No," he glanced at Rae. "They got away." He closed the device.
