Chapter 12

"No way! No way dude!"

"Man…I never would've guessed…"

"How could I not see it?"

"I know…" The male Titans were actually taking this pretty hard. Not necessarily 'hard', but they were taking it in a way I couldn't determine.

"Dude...Re's working for Slade…" Beast Boy said, shaking his head.

"I just don't see how you guys couldn't see it. She was constantly asking you things. Private things. And she was shut away in her room all day. I'm really surprised at you, Robin. Batman's protégé." I noticed Robin tense and sweat.

"She was so convincing…just so convincing…." He looked away, shaking his head.

"I'm also a wonderful actress." There was a light chuckle. Whipping my head to the door, I realized who it came from. Re.

"Hey guys! What's up?" She sat on the sofa, kicking her legs up on the table. Robin was bat-glaring at her, Cyborg shook his head, and Beast Boy growled. She looked absolutely innocent; eyes huge, lip quivering, and face blushing.

"…" We were all silent, watching her every movement. She was breathing

"Guys? Something wrong?"

"No…but we know something's wrong with you." Robin answered. Re looked utterly confused.

"What?" She sat up, eyes squinted.

"We know something about you, little lady." Cyborg said, hostility rising.

"What exactly is it, Cyborg?" She got up, glaring at him.

"Are you working for Slade?" I turned to Beast Boy. He definitely looked heartbroken.

"What? No! Why would I work for him? He's, like, evil isn't he?" I rolled my eyes as she started to twirl her hair.

"Yeah Raven…it does seem pretty farfetched…" Beast Boy agreed. I couldn't believe it! Taking her side after I clearly told him she was evil?

"Why were you video chatting with Slade then?" I asked, sitting next to her on the couch.

"That was my uncle! He's got a deep voice and stuff." I rolled my eyes. She was lying through her teeth, and luckily Robin and Cyborg weren't buying it.

"Yeah right. Millions of people would've gotten this spot, Re. Millions of honorary Titans." Robin shook his head.

"I'm an honorary Titan?" Robin chuckled.

"Nope. You're no longer even a Titan!" Re blanched. And I smirked.

"What? I'm not even working for Slade you guys! Honest, I'd never lie to you!" She pleaded, eyes watering and bottom lip trembling. Robin walked out of the room and we followed.

"Raven wouldn't lie to us, BB." Cyborg scolded. Currently, Beast Boy was vouching for Re while the rest of us normal human beings were arguing against her.

"But maybe she's jealous of her!" Jealous?

"Jealous? Jealous! Why would I be jealous of Re? She has no one, no personality, and she's rude to me!" |

"I dunno, dude; you did seem to hate her at first." That is some stupid freakin' logic, Beast Boy.

"When someone's rude to me, I'm rude back. It's just how things go." Cyborg and Robin nodded in agreement.

"But…but she has to stay! She can't go; we need another girl!" I laughed and rolled my eyes.

"There are plenty of honorary Titans we could bring in, Beast Boy." Robin quipped.

"But…but….but we have to keep her guys!"

"BB you make her sound like a puppy! She's a woman…thing." Cyborg sneered. I had to laugh.

"I can hear you guys, you know." We whipped our head around to see Re leaning up against the doorframe. She had a knowing smirk on her face as she sashayed over to us.

"Oh…hi, Re." Robin said in his I-am-definitely-Batman's-protégé voice.

"Hey Robin. I just wanted to tell you all I was leaving. Farewell!" She did a dramatic swoop-wave and tiptoed over to her door. We were just standing there, shell-shocked.

"What?" Beast Boy trailed after her. He sounded forlornly relieved.

"I'm leaving. Family stuff and crap like that. Yeah, my uncle said he needs to destroy a group of four whiny teenagers." Our eyes went wide.

"Do you have to go?"

"Yes. Thank you for being my….friends….and giving me free food. Deuces!" She walked out the front door. We didn't know where she was going, but there was one thing that we knew. This week would be pure hell.


I know I'm terrible at updating this...and I'm sorry! Forgive me...anyways, it may get a little more action-y from here. Review and Favorite. Grammar Nazis and Flamers welcome.
