We are always running for the thrill of it, thrill of it
Always pushing up a hill, searching for the thrill of it
On and on and on we walk calling out, out again
Never looking in down I'm just in awe in what's in front of me

The next day, at precisely 4:30 pm, the Titans peered out of the window and saw, literally, a boat load of children heading toward the Tower. Starfire was squealing with glee.
"They're so early." Robin said. He was still in his uniform, having not expected so many kids to be coming so early.
"Well, we better get downstairs right now with all that candy." Cyborg said, pointing to the barrel full of treats. They had three more; just in case. The Titans took the elevator downstairs and were instantly greeted by kids running from the dock.
"Woah. It's like a stampede!" Beast Boy exclaimed.
"Get ready." Raven replied as children of all ages ran toward the Titans, their parents in tow. Cameras flashed everywhere and Raven covered her eyes from all the bright lights. The Titans began shoveling candy into kids bags and posed with them for pictures.
"Raven! Raven! Can you say your catch phrase?" a bunch of little kids said, as she poured candy into their bags.
"Catchphrase?"
"You say it all the time!" the exclaimed.
"Azarath Metrion Zinthos?" Raven said quizzically.
"She said it!" they screamed, running off to tell their mothers that their favorite hero had said her catchphrase.
"Gee, you have quite the fan base." Beast Boy said with a chuckle.
"Shut up and help me give these kids their candy." Raven growled, as she threw handfuls into every kid's bag.

Once Jinx arrived, the Titans left her with the kids to prep for trick or treating. Beast Boy knocked on Raven's door, an evil smile on his face. She quickly slid it open and pulled him into her room.
"Alright; costume please?" Raven said.
"Here you go." Beast Boy said, smirking. He handed a skimpy looking outfit.
"Is this-"
"Slave Lei. Yep!" Beast Boy said. Raven narrowed her eyes.
"I am not wearing this." Raven growled. Beast Boy sighed.
"I knew you'd say that. I'll be right back." Beast Boy said, snatching the outfit from her hands and running out of the room. A minute later Beast Boy came back with a cream white spandex outfit. It had a gray-ish, white-ish belt with two holsters on the side. On the sleeves were two metal rings. He had a cream/ white cloak in his hand. Beast Boy also had cream colored boots that looked like they would almost reach up to her knees.
"Who is this supposed to be?"
"Padme Amidala, from Star Wars." Beast Boy said. Raven looked at the costume and then back at Beast Boy.
"You've got to be kidding me."
"Hey, this or the other outfit. Your choice." Beast Boy replied, holding up his hands in defense.
"Fine. Who are you going as?"
"Anakin Skywalker."
"Of course." Raven said, rolling her eyes. She snatched the outfit from his hands and ushered him out of her room.

"I hate you." Raven said, fixing her boots as she met up with Beast Boy in the hallway. He went all out for his costume; he was using Cyborg's holographic ring and even had a little braid in his hair.
"Hey; I bought this outfit as a substitute. Be glad I'm a good guy." Beast Boy said, leading her down the corridor. Aside from a few strands of hair near her chakra, Raven had her hair in a tight bun. The cloak swished behind her as she tried to keep up with Beast Boy.
"How long do we have to trick or treat?" Raven sighed.
"All night." Beast Boy said, smirking. Raven groaned and slid open the door to the commons room for them.
"Oh! Friend Raven! You look most beautiful!" Starfire gushed as Raven entered the room. She immediately started to blush.
"Star! You dyed your hair!" Beast Boy exclaimed, at the now blonde Starfire.
"Oh, no. It is a wig. I like my red hair." Starfire said, touching her perfectly sculpted hair.
"Ah. Anyway, ready to go trick or treating?" Beast Boy said. Raven looked around the room; Cyborg was wearing a bowler hat and a suit. He had fake cigar in his mouth and a briefcase too. Robin was wearing in eye patch and actually, traditional pirate gear. Jinx was sitting on the couch with Kid Flash, flipping through channels.
"Yep! Come on, let's get going. Thanks for house sitting!" Cyborg said, the last part directed at Kid Flash and Jinx.
"Yeah, yeah, just leave before I change my mind." Jinx said. The Titans quickly fled to the garage, where everyone piled into the car. Cyborg was driving, Robin sat in the front and Raven sat in between Beast Boy and Starfire.

"Trick or treat!" The Titans (excluding Raven, who was leaning on the wall) shouted as an old lady opened her door.
"Oh! The Teen Titans! You saved my grandson's life!" the old lady said, barely able to contain her excitement.
"It's all apart of the job." Beast Boy said with a smile.
"Oh thank you! You can have all the candy you want!" the lady said, holding out a bowl. They all dug in, except for, of course, Raven. Once they were done they said thank you and left the house, their bags just a tad bit heavier.
Beast Boy popped a gummy bear into his mouth as he strolled down the street with his friends. The streets were crowded with children of all ages, dancing and laughing.
"Beast Boy, you shouldn't eat that." Raven said as they walked down the street.
"Why not? You're not the boss of me!" Beast Boy said, throwing another gummy bear into his mouth. He chewed in smugly in front of Raven and she rolled her eyes at his naivety.
"Because they're made of animal bones. But hey, you're choice." Raven replied, smirking at him. He made a disgusted look at the candy in his hands and quickly spat it out, wiping his tongue down with his hands.
"Oh god! I've been eating...animals?"
"If you've been getting your gummy bears from the grocery store, yeah." Raven replied.
"Oh my god! Oh, oh, ew!" Beast Boy said, gagging.
"Forget that, where did the others go?" Raven said, now panicking.
"I don't know. But relax, don't you trust me?" Beast Boy said, flashing her a toothy grin.
"Sure. Why not?" Raven said, somewhat sarcastically as they began walking down the street.
"Soo...Raven. What's...what's going on?" Beast Boy said, as they passed by a house.
"Um...nothing. I guess."
"You know...You look...you look really pretty in that costume." Beast Boy said quietly.
"What? I don't look pretty all the time?" Raven said. Beast Boy's eyes widened and he shook his head.
"Yes! I mean no! I mean- I didn't mean it in that way-"
"Relax. I'm just kidding." Raven said, laughing a little bit. Beast Boy's eyes returned to normal and a smile began to spread on his face.
"Since when did you get a since of humor?"
"I've always had one. You were too busy stealing the show with your jokes." Raven joked, laughing.
"Har har, jokester." Beast Boy said sarcastically. Without realizing it, they moved closer to each other and brushed shoulders.
"So...what were so saying about me being pretty?" Raven said quietly.
"Oh...I just...You're really pretty." Beast Boy said, blushing.
"Thanks...You're not so bad yourself." Raven replied, looking down. Without thinking about it, Beast Boy slid his hands into Raven's. To his surprise, nothing exploded and she didn't whip her hand away.
It was truly a beautiful moment; the moon's light illuminated Raven's skin and she looked like a porcelain doll. The two were in utter silence, but they didn't mind. They didn't need words to explain how happy they were. Raven looked up and smiled at Beast Boy. It was completely out of character of her, but at the moment, she could care less who saw them. All she knew was that this was where she wanted to be. This was what happiness was.
Beast Boy couldn't be more ecstatic. Here he was with Raven, an unattainable girl that he had been crushing on who was way out of his league. And she didn't let go of his hand! Instead, she just smiled up at him. A true, genuine smile. He wouldn't trade this moment for all the video games in the world. They stopped under a street lamp, still holding hands and gazed into each other's eyes.
Without a second thought, Beast Boy leaned in and kissed Raven. And she didn't stop him. She wrapped her arms around his neck and closed her eyes.
Now she was sure she knew what happiness was. Once they parted, they looked each other in the eyes again.
"Beast Boy, I-"
The moment was interrupted by a flash of thunder and Raven quickly turned around to see what happened. Fog filled the streets and from it emerged the League of Evil Villains. Beast Boy clenched his fists. Of course. These losers had to ruin his moment with Raven.
"We'll talk later." Raven said, flying over to League. She was happy to discover that her cloak had a hood, and she quickly pulled it above her head.
"What do you want this time? Want my candy?" Raven growled, holding her pillow case full of candy next to her face. Mad Mod laughed and approached her, his cane behind his back. Robin and Starfire came running toward Raven, Cyborg in tow.
"No dear; we want you." With that, Mad Mod smacked his cane against Raven's head, knocking her out instantly.
"Come on boys; the boss is calling!" Mad Mod said, slinging Raven over his shoulder.
"Raven!" Beast Boy screamed, he quickly changed into a cheetah and leaped at the league. Mumbo easily deflected Beast Boy, and sent him hurtling toward the street lamp.
"See ya later, Titans!" Mad Mod cackled, tipping his hat. Before he could disappear though, Robin ran full speed at Red X. He quickly tackled him to the ground as the rest of the League vanished from sight.
"You little liar! How could you?" Robin shouted, punching Red X in the face. He simply laughed and kicked Robin off of him, sending the Boy Wonder crashing on the ground.
"Sorry Bird Boy, but a villain's gotta make a living." Red X said, disappearing.
"Raven. She's gone." Beast Boy said, quietly, before collapsing on the ground.
