"BEAST VS FREAK" - CONTROL FREAK CHALLENGES BEAST BOY TO A VIDEO GAME.

"BEAST VS FREAK"

The thick blade cut into it's opponent with fury. The knight holding this sword practically glowed with power as it struck down it enemy's. The sun hit the knight's black armor and his red eyes glowed. As the knight looked around he noticed no more opponent's were standing in his way. The level was complete and the knight was free to collect his prize. In the middle of the chamber room stood a dagger placed carefully on a stand craved of wood. As the knight saw his prize he advanced closer to the dagger to pick it up.

His prize was within his grasp when his armor began to crack. The knight turned around and saw a figure loaming over him in the darkness. The figure raised his axe and cut into the knight, making him shatter into thousands of pieces.

GAME OVER...

The words flashed on screen over and over again.

"Nooo!" Control Freak threw his game control on the floor in frustration as his knight was destroyed yet again in the game of 'Dungeon World'. "This happens to me every time! Who keeps doing this?!"

Control Freak pulled out his key board and began to type. If he could hack into the online system and find out the code he could finally figure out who this mystery player was. Dungeon World was a top game of today's time and he was one of the many online players with one goal in mind, to win the game. But he couldn't if this mystery figure kept destroying him and collecting all the prizes.

"Who... who are you?" Control Freak spoke to himself. A code appeared on screen and he clicked the enter button on his key board. "Success... and the mystery figure is... Beastman." Control Freak rose a brow in puzzlement. "Who's Beastman?"

A series of cheers erupted from a teenager as his warrior character collected the prize dagger to the Dungeon World game.

"Go me! Go me! Who's the man? I'm the man!"

At that moment a teenage girl walked in the room with a book in hand and a scowl on her face. "Beast Boy, would you mind keeping your voice down. Some of us are using this time productively."

Beast Boy, who was jumping on the couch, sat down. "All right I'll quiet down but I'm not Beast Boy... I'm Beastman!"

"A lame name for your lame character on a lame game," Raven said dryly and she sighed as she walked out of the room. "Dork."

The sun rose and cast a bright light upon Jump City. The water reflected the sun's rays creating a sparkle. It was a peaceful morning with no crime, something the hero's of Jump City were thankful for. Titans Tower was surrounded by a peaceful aura and calm atmosphere.

In the kitchen of said tower sat Raven along side Robin. She was enjoying her usual cup of tea while Robin had a cup of coffee and a newspaper in hand. Starfire sat opposite of the two with Silkie in her arms, feeding him with a bottle as if he was a baby.

Cyborg was whistling gleefully with a chef hat on his head as he cooked up breakfast. With in minutes he was placing a plate of pancakes in front of each Titan, minus Beast Boy who's eyes were fixed on his video game. He was like a zombie, he wasn't even blinking. The only part of his body moving was his fingers which clicked the game controller with determination to win the game.

"Yo, BB," called out Cyborg. "Don't you think you should put that game down already."

"..." Beast Boy didn't respond.

"This is the behavior of a nerd, yes?" Starfire asked, checking to see if her statement was correct or not.

"Yeah," said Raven. "But Beast Boy isn't at all smart." Raven looked over at the couch to see if her comment had any effect on Beast Boy but he was lost in the thrill of the game. Raven sighed. "Okay, this is getting weird. And not his normal weird."

"I agree with Raven," Robin said, crossing his arms. "He's been playing that game for days."

"I'll take care of this," Cyborg said while standing up. He walked over to the refrigerator and took out a frozen chicken. A evil grin crossed his features as he made his way over to Beast Boy. "Forgive me chicken for after this I will not be able to eat you."

The others rose a brow at Cyborg who walked behind Beast Boy. He towered over the green teen and before anyone could react Cyborg pulled Beast Boy's head back and forced the chicken in his mouth.

Beast Boy's eyes flew open in shock and he dropped his controller. He burped and the whole chicken was coughed out and rolled on to the floor. Beast Boy whipped his tongue in disgust while Silkie crawled over to him. Silkie sniffed at the chicken covered in drool and smiled. He gobbled up the whole chicken and smiled up at the Titans who all looked disgusted. The little worm burped and wiggled off to go take a nap.

"Okay...," Raven said slowly. "That was gross."

Starfire nodded in agreement. Even sometimes she found her pet to be a bit strange.

"Dude, what's wrong with you," Beast Boy yelled at the metal teen. "You know I don't like meat!"

Cyborg smirked. "Hey, it's not like you ate the thing so chill.'

Beast Boy scowled and threw a punch. He hit metal and pain vibrated up his arm making him yell out in pain. "OW!"

Raven rolled her eyes. "Big baby."

"Beast Boy," Robin said with a serious voice. "We need to talk."

"Uh... okay," Beast Boy said, stopping his foolishness. "About what?"

"It has come to our attention that you have gotten the obsession with the game of video." Starfire said.

"Star, it's not an obsession."

The others all sighed in relief.

"It's away of life."

The others all groaned in annoyance.

That's when the television flickered and changed. "He is right, Titans. This game is a way of life."

The Titans turned their heads towards the television to see a ginger-haired overweight villain plastered on screen.

"Control Freak," Robin said with narrowed eyes. "What do you want now?"

"What I want? That's an excellent question, Robin," Control Freak said with a smirk. "What I want is you!" he pointed at Beast Boy and then at Starfire. "And you too." he said with a seductive purr.

Starfire cringed and felt extremely uncomfortable. Robin glared at Control Freak.

Beast Boy took a few steps closer to the screen. "What do you want with me?"

"I challenge you to a game of Dungeon World!" Control Freak said dramatically with fake lightening in his picture background.

"Wait a minute, isn't that a game," said Cyborg. "I though you only liked tv and movies."

"I... I still do," Control Freak said defensively. "I can like both!"

"Whatever dude," Beast Boy said with a grin. "I can beat you at any game. You are so on."

"Very well, our game will take place now!" Control Freak held up his remote and clicked a red button. He aimed his remote at Beast Boy who disappeared from the living room of Titans Tower and suddenly appeared on screen.

"Dude, what you do that?!" Beast Boy asked in panic as he appeared on screen along side Control Freak.

"Relax green one," Control Freak said with a evil smirk. "Our game will take place but in the virtual world!"

"Let him go, Control Freak." demanded Robin.

"Sorry bird for brains but we're both stuck in here until the game is over," said Control Freak. "And the game isn't over until one of use gets the most valuable prize. The crown."

With that said Control Freak clicked his remote, making him and Beast Boy disappear from the screen and only leaving grey static behind.

"Titans, we need to help Beast Boy," Robin said, turning to his team and punching his hand with his fist. "It's up to us to get him out of that game."

There was a silent pause in the room.

"I'm out." droned Raven and she walked out of the room.

"Yeah, I think I'm gonna sit this out to," said Cyborg. "I mean, Beast Boy isn't in any real danger. All he has to do is reach the end of the game. Win or lose we'll get him back."

"What if Control Freak cheats or something," Robin said. "We need to take this seriously."

"Right, and I will," Cyborg grinned. "After I give my baby some upgrades."

With that said Cyborg left to go work on his car leaving just Robin and Starfire in the room. Robin sighed and hung his head low. That's when a comforting hand was placed on his shoulder. He looked up and saw a smiling Starfire.

"Do not worry, Robin," she said kindly. "We will work on a way to help Beast Boy and I am sure he shall do his best to win against Control Freak."

Robin smiled. "Thanks, Star."

A high pitch scream was heard as a green boy came tumbling down from the sky. Beast Boy fell to the ground with a thud and pain vibrated through his entire body... well, virtual body. Beast Boy rubbed his head and sat up straight, taking in his surroundings. This was defiantly Dungeon World. Acres of computer graphics stretched as far as the eye can see to look like a forest. Luckily for Beast boy he wasn't in the forest but rather on the wide open ground. There was a path made of stone ahead of him which eventually turned into stairs and lead to a castle. Something inside Beast Boy's mind clicked and he remembered Control Freak saying something about a crown.

The crown was a heavily guarded prize in the game Dungeon World. Only by capturing the crown would a player officially win. Beast Boy adverted his eyes and looked at himself.

"Wow..."

Beast Boy was dressed completely like his video game character. He had on brown pants and black boots. To his side was his axe and he was wearing a brown shirt with black gloves.

"Dude... cool!" Beast Boy smiled happily and punched the air with his fist. He had often wondered what it would be like to be part of a game and now he knew. It felt spectacular. Maybe Control Freak throwing him into this game wasn't so bad after all.

Beast Boy rose to his feet and turned around. When he looked up he re-thought his opinion. Standing before him was Control Freak dressed as his game character, a black knight. The problem was the costume didn't exactly fit Control Freak all that well. There were cracks in the armor that exposed flesh, particularly the stomach area. It was like squeezing a watermelon into a mini purse. All in all it wasn't a pleasant sight for Beast Boy.

"So, I see you made it in one piece," Control Freak said. "I assume you are ready to play the game now."

"Well, yeah, I guess...," Beast Boy said sounding unsure. All he had to do was get his character destroyed or sit back and let Control Freak win the game and then he would be back in his living room. But than again Beast Boy was sure Control Freak would never let him hear the end if it. "I'm game."

"Very well," Control Freak said with a wicked grin. "Let the game begin. Activate hover cart."

A glow materialized under Control Freak's feet and turned into a metal stand with a handle as if it was a bike. Jet's were attached to the side to keep the cart afloat. The structure of the item resembled that of a motorcycle but without wheels and a flat bottom.

"Dude, a hover cart," Beast Boy was amazed. "How'd you get that prize?"

"Ugh, I to undergo an entire mountain quest. It was a real pain."

"More than underwater levels?"

"More or less," Control Freak said with a shrug. "It depends on your opponents."

"Too true."

"Well... we should get started."

"Yeah, we should."

There was a pause before they both took off towards the castle at once in a race.

Another page read and another minute passed. Raven eyed the clock on her wall and debated whether to blow it up or not. She tapped her foot in annoyance and placed her book on her bed. This whole thing with Beast Boy was really beginning to annoy her. She knew he wasn't in any read danger but she missed his presence in the tower.

She sighed in frustration as she stood up and walked out of her room with only one idea in mind, helping Beast Boy.

Starfire stared at the Boy Wonder before her with curious filled eyes. Robin had decided he could hack into the computer and find a way to locate Control Freak and Beast online. He was currently fixed under the computer, rewiring the wires and laying on his back. Robin almost seemed like a plummer with the position he was in.

"Robin, do you acquire assistance?" Starfire asked as she floated off the ground just a bit.

"No thanks, Star... I think I got it." Robin replied absently as he connected two wires together. Big mistake.

A jolt of electricity was sent coursing through the wires and went straight towards Robin. It wasn't enough to seriously damage him but it did give him a good shock which resulted in an awkward appearance of Robin. The electricity puffed out his hair to look like a afro. Starfire couldn't stop the giggles from escaping her lips as she doubled over in laughter. Robin's face turned as red as his shirt and he quickly fixed his hair, turning it back into spikes.

"Okay, new plan." Robin said quietly. There was no way he was going to mess with those wires again.

"Perhaps we should do the relaxing," Starfire said, folding her hands in front of her chest. "Both Cyborg and Raven have decided to do the 'breaks' while Beast Boy is away. Maybe we should as well."

"I guess you're right, Starfire," Robin said as he put a hand to his chin in thought. "This free time may be good for us."

Starfire nodded happily, glad she would be able to direct his attention elsewhere besides his work. Maybe they could even spend some time together as friends.

"Since I have nothing better to do maybe I can do some research on Slade."

The smile was whipped clean off Starfire's face. She looked down at the floor and grounded herself. "Oh..."

Robin suddenly felt like an idiot. "Star, it's not that I don't want to spend time with you, it's just..."

"Do not feel the guilt, Robin," Starfire said softly. "We are no longer the dating so you do not have to feel guilt for not spending time with me."

She turned away to leave but Robin quickly snatched her hand, making her stop. She turned to face him but he had his eyes fixed on the floor.

"It's not like that, Starfire...," Robin said softly. "I like spending time with you, even if we aren't dating. You're still my best friend."

"And you are mines," Starfire said gently. "Robin..."

He looked up and found himself lost in two emerald pools. "Starfire..."

They both began to lean closer but immediately froze up at the sound of the door opening. Raven walked through the door, barely noticing her two teammates in the room. Robin and Starfire stood completely still, watching her as she walked over to them and to the couch. Using her powers Raven lifted up the sofa cushions. She looked around the couch for a bit until finally locating a sheet filled with cheat codes for video games that Beast Boy liked to play. With the sheet in hand she used her powers to fix the cushions and then she left the room.

"I wonder what that was about." Robin said after Raven left.

Starfire nodded. "Agreed."

Robin turned his head to look at Starfire but then he noticed that his hand was still holding hers. Starfire noticed this as well. Awkward silence filled the room until they jumped away from each other, breaking the holding of their hands.

Robin's face was cherry red as he rubbed the back of his neck. "You know what... I could use a really good workout so I'll be in the gym if you need me."

"Yes, and I shall be in my room tending to Silkie." Starfire said, her cheeks also a bright red.

"Right... so I'll just be leaving." Robin said awkwardly as he quickly walked out of the room.

Starfire remained in the living room with a small smile on her face. Perhaps there was hope just yet for the two of them after all.

They had made it to the castle and were running through the castle halls like mad men. Beast Boy had pulled ahead of Control Freak after tripping the rather large geek down the stairs with a magic spell of his. Beast Boy grinned, being a game character was really cool. He had a whole bunch of secret moves, items and spells to use. He was confident he could win this game.

That was until he fell into a trap. He must have stepped on a trigger or something because suddenly a set of obstacles stood before him. Large axe-like objects sprung from the walls and if Beast Boy wasn't careful he would get chopped to pieces. Unfortunately Control Freak wasn't as careful as Beast boy. He failed to notice the swinging weapons and walked right into the line of danger instantly being cut in half.

"Bummer." Control Freak said before disappearing.

Beast Boy blinked. "Did I just win?"

"Not quite little green one." said a voice.

Beast Boy gasped and quickly turned around. Standing there was Control Freak.

"What? How?" Beast Boy slumped his shoulders in total confusion.

"Surprised?"

Beast Boy nodded slowly.

Control Freak laughed. "I used a special token from the sages in the forest of doom that allowed me to make a single clone of myself," Control Freak said proudly. "Pretty impressive, isn't it?"

Beast Boy rolled his eyes, a habit he picked up from the resident goth of Titans Tower. He didn't have time for this. Beast Boy ignored Control Freak and kept his eyes on the weapons swinging from the walls. He took three steps ahead, passing the first one and continued to do this to pass by the others.

"Hey! Get back here!" Control Freak yelled as he carefully followed beast Boy but at a slower pace.

"You snooze you lose, Control Freak!" Beast Boy said with a laugh as he passed all the swinging axes. He took one step and the ground under him broke. It was a trap door. Beast Boy screamed as he fell down the dark hole.

Control Freak made it past the swinging axes and laughed as he passed by the hole Beast Boy fell into.

Raven sat down with instructions and cheat codes in front of her. Cyborg had given her permission to use his computer and once she was given the okay it was straight to work for her. She slipped in the computer game disc and waited as it began to load. Raven couldn't believe what she was about to do but it was forth it. After all she had to help her friend, right? Or at least that's what she kept telling herself.

The start of the game appeared and Raven read along the guide lines.

"Creating a character, huh?" she mumbled quietly to herself in the darkened room with a raised brow.

Control Freak smiled proudly as he kicked open the doors to the throne room were he knew the crown was being held. He stepped inside the room which looked fit for a king. Stone walls with torches attached to them surrounded him as he walked inside. Control Freak walked on top of the velvet carpet which lead to the throne chair which was carved of gold with red cushions. That's when he laid his eyes upon the prize. Sitting on top of the throne was a gold crown decorated with different color gems. This was it, all he had to do was grab it and he would win the game. Finally he would have defeated a Titan.

Well, technically his win wouldn't really count but the point was he would be a winner in this virtual world. He began to laugh wildly, holding his ribs as his laughter got louder and filled the room.

"I won! I won!" he shouted.

His victory came crashing down.

"I don't think so!"

Control Freak immediately stopped laughing and turned around. His mouth was agape and he lifted up a shaky finger. "B-but... y-you..."

"You're not the only one with handy items," Beast Boy said proudly, tossing a game coin in his hand that had a picture of a bird carved into it. By using that coin he had the power of flight for a limited time which saved him from his fall. Unfortunately that had been his last trick. Getting past the castle walls used up a lot of strength and he only had one weapon left, his axe. Beast Boy narrowed his eyes and clutched his axe. "Let's get this over with."

"Very well," said Control Freak, drawing his sword. He too had run out of all his tricks and was on his last weapon. "Let's this be our final battle."

Beast Boy rolled his eyes. Control Freak was always ripping off lines from television.

The two began their battle with a roar and their weapons clashed. The metal collided and sent a shock wave through the handles and up the arms of the holders. It was on. Beast Boy pulled away and flung his axe down. Control Freak immediately blocked with his sword. The battle continued like this until both players were panting. They were both determined to win and that's what kept them going. They were so involved in their battle they didn't notice the throne doors open.

A female figure stepped in surrounded by light. She had long blue hair and light purple skin. She was dressed in a white skirt that reached her ankles and had two cuts along the side. She had on a white shirt that exposed her bare stomach and many pieces of gold jewelry hanging from her neck. The girl had pure white eyes and a strong gaze.

Both Beast Boy and Control Freak gulped.

The woman turned her head towards Control Freak and summoned a ball of white light that seemed similar to Starfire's starbolts. She fired it at Control Freak and it destroyed him on the spot. She raised her other hand and did the same to Beast Boy. Once both boys were gone she slowly walked up to the throne and gingerly picked up the crown, placing it on her head.

In the real world both Control Freak and Beast Boy were hurled out of their television screens. Beast Boy crashed on to the floor but stood up straight, staring at his television in shock. Somewhere else Control Freak was doing the same. Only one question lingered on their minds.

"Who the heck was that?!"

Raven leaned back in her chair and kicked up her legs. She rested her hands behind her head and grinned at the computer screen before her as her character placed the crown on it's head. Defeating Beast Boy and Control Freak at a game they claimed to have mastered was actually a bit of fun.

"I have to play video games more often."
