"Robin, why can't we just blast this little piece of sh-..." muttered Cyborg before being cut off by what turned out to be one of his backup arms knocking him over. "GREAT, now its been in MY room. What is this thing anyway?!"
Robin, who had been busy dodging the couch, answered, "Because it would damage the tower. If it were that simple, we would have done it already. If you miss, then we have to replace ANOTHER wall."
"Yea, well if we don't catch the thing soon, we're gonna have even more damage. Its just casing havok for no reason," he said after taking a swipe at the flying black shadow.
"It didn't start untill you attacked it first!"
"It's a demonic cupid monster. What would you have done!?"
"Um," Starfire cut it, "I hate to interupt your arguing, but he is no longer in the room." She had been flying up by the cieling, being pretty much ignored by the monster. It was only interested in attacking the males. She would have helped, but she didn't want to get in the way. It was trashing the building but not really all that dangerous. It was actually kind of cute, in her opinion.
"Where?"
"Down that hallway, towards the gym."
"Great, now it can through my weights at us," Cyborg complained while the three of them ran off down the hallway.

A BIT EARLIER, AFTER RAVEN LEFT...
The three titans left were all sitting around the tower, when they started hearing crashing noises from Raven's room. Though they were afraid from previous experiences going there, they knew they had to check it out. Instead of that helping, it released the little terror into the rest of the building. It was a demon cupid, only with fairly incredible strenght and speed. It hadn't yet used the large bow on its back. It was the size of a normal baby, but had a toothy grin, and could fly. They had been attempting to catch it this whole time, but because they wanted to not damage the tower more than it already was, they tried to not use full attacks. They weren't sure how to catch it, but they could improvise, they hoped. Nets, they had already seen, dont seem to work well. Unfortunately, they tried again in the gym. Leaving them about...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"That was smart, Boy Blunder."
"Yea, well I didn't hear you coming up with ideas. So I tried something new."
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN NEW!!??? We already knew that didn't work, it can catch nets!"
"I hadn't tried from below yet and catching it off gaurd."
"Yea, well how did that work for you?"
"Quiet, both of you," spoke up Starfire. "Now is not the time to be arguing. We are tied up here handing from the cieling, and getting angry at each other will not help."
And tied up they were. The demon had caught the net, and flew around them, hanging them from a light fixture. He actually wasn't destroying anything in the weight room, only vandalizing Beast Boy's treadmill. Now he had started floating around, staring at them. Almost like he was admiring his work. Or their stupidity. It was not obvious how intelligent this thing was.
"Okay, team, is there anything we can do to get out of this?"
"No, you seem to have used your flame resistant nets. My powers will not burn it away," Starfire sighed out.
"And I'm held too tight to active anything to cut this, if it would even work. This things made of steel, isnt it?"
"Yea. Its a good net, works pretty well."
"We noticed, Robin," Cyborg said sarcastically.
"Look on the brightside," Starfire said with a smile. "He is no longer trying to hurt us. Only taking out his bow to... oh."
The demon had finally drawn the bow on his back, placed an arrow with a heart-shaped spearpoint on the end, and aimed it at the three tied up and hanging from the cieling. They looked at each other, and simultaneously screamed and begun rocking back and forth. It may be cupid, but the arrow looked sharp.
As they swung back and forth, the cupid was attempting to aim, but was having trouble. Their adreniline started kicking in, and the swinging was almost too fast to follow. The demon fired a shot, but missed. The arrow evaportated on the wall behind them, and in its place was a piece of black, purple, and red mistletoe. The colors were swirling, as if it was alive.
"You know guys," Cyborg muttered while the black, demon cupid reloaded, "that looks alot like those monsters Raven breeds when she either denies or has intense emotion." After dodging a second arrow, he continued. "Remeber last halloween, with her being afriad from that movie? Maybe something going on with her created this thing. It had to come from somewhere."
After a bit of swinging to keep the cupid misfiring, Robin took over. "But when she was afraid, there were swarms of monsters. Why only one cupid thing?"
"Different emotion, different powers? Its just an idea. And if its true, somebodies gotta talk to her. And that things been locked in her room, you can't tell me she hasn't noticed already. She needs to keep us up to speed."
"But first," Robin added, singlehandedly swinging the three of them to avoid another arrow, further aggravating the monster, "we have to catch or kill the thing. Otherwise we might never have a chance."
"So, any bright ideas?" Cyborg asked as they began to swing in their usual pattern. But the last arrow never came. Come to think of it, where did Starfire go?
Down, playing with the demon. She was so thin she was able to slip out, and was playing with it like it was some infant or a toddler. "Oh, you are so cute, yes you are," she giggled while scrathing its stomach. It responded by making a high pitched, baby sounding laugh.
"Uhm, Starfire, could you get us down, and play with your new friend who trashed our whole building later?"
Though it was just such an odd thing, Robin couldn't help admiring how warm Starfire was at times like this.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After Beast Boy flew into his room and finished hiding the gift, he walked out into the hallway. His first thought was spoken outloud.
"WHAT HAPPENED!!!??!!?" The whole hallway and living room looked like a warzone. As did the stairs down to the first floor, the rec room, and the hallway down from there. Beast boy followed the trail of destruction to the gym. Inside, there were Cyborg and Robin tied in a net hanging from the cieling, and Starfire cuddling with what looked like a demon cupid. They all just stared at him and said at once, "... We can explain."
After getting the two guys down, and listening to what happened, and their theory, he felt happier than he had in a long time. If Robin was right, she was afriad of having some type of emotion, and that spawned a monster. Even when she doesn't let emotions get the better of her, it cuases problems. And since it was a Cupid thing from what he saw, it MUST be love. He actually had hope that he hadn't been wasting his time at all. He had actually maybe won over the girl of his dreams. What sunk it was that the monster grew an extra pair of eyes when it saw Beast Boy. The others didn't notice, luckily.
"Well, when Raven gets back, I'll talk to her," Robin announced. "I think I can get through to her the best."
"Robin?" Beast Boy began, "maybe I should-..."
"No, its gotta be Robin, Beast Boy," Cyborg cut in. "He knows her the best."
"Well, I just think-..."
Now it was Starfires turn. "I agree with these two, Beast Boy. I am sorry, but Robin might be the most mature about this."
Beast Boy could see Robin holding back something in his face when she spoke about him like that. 'Figures,' he thought.
"Fine, fine, whatever." It didn't really matter to him now anyway. Tonight was Christmas eve, and with his new hope, it was time to try and settle things between the two of them. He had already seen her naked and in her underwear, as well as slept with her, he mine as well do it properly. This time he didn't even bother suppressing the image of her out of the shower in his mind. She wasn't here right now. And with that happy picture, the four walked back upstairs. They would start cleaning up there first, since they live in the upper levels.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Starfire was even walking on air... literally. She had already found ANOTHER new friend. 'Could this day GET any better?'
The demon fell asleep in her arms, looked oddly cute, and she decided, 'No.'
