R&R por favore! Today is the premier of season three of Adventure Time!
OOo
She was into the Stones when
I was into the Roses
She was breaking my bones when
I was bursting their noses
She would tell me a secret
I would lose it the next day
Young love pleases you easy
Makes you sick in a bad way

Sunlight leaked in through the crystal clear wall in Raven's room. Blinking her eyes groggily, she dragged herself out of bed and closed the shades, rubbing her eyes. After finishing dinner with her friends, the gothic girl retired to her bedroom, tired and finally beginning to feel the jet lag kick in. Yawning, she grabbed her towel and her toiletries and tip toed into the bathroom, careful not to wake anyone up. Silently closing the door behind her, she turned on faucets in the bathtub. She sat on the edge of the tub and poured bath salts in. Once the bathtub was filled to the brim, Raven slipped out of her pajamas and into the tub. Meanwhile, Beast Boy stirred in his sleep before finally jolting up, caked in sweat. He displayed a sour expression after taking one whiff of himself. Clenching his nose, he grabbed a towel from his suitcase and began his trek to the bathroom. Still half asleep, Beast Boy turned the knob to the bathroom and opened the door. His ears were met with a bloodcurdling scream and his face was met with a shampoo bottle.
"Beast Boy! Get out!" Raven shouted, slamming the door with her powers in his face. Now, Beast Boy was full awake and a blush was creeping up on his face. Meanwhile, Raven was seething in the bathtub, making everything in the bathroom swirl around in the air. Angry and annoyed, she concentrated on relaxing once again and a few seconds later, everything that was once midair dropped to the ground. Sighing, she stepped out of the tub and wrapped the towel around her, reminding herself that she still had to clean this up. She tiptoed back to her room, her face still red. Raven pulled a pair of shorts and a T-shirt from out from the dresser and slid her clothes on.
"Raven! Robin requests your presence!" Starfire said, knocking on the door.
"I'll be right there Star." Raven replied, tying her hair up in a loose ponytail. Once that was done, she swung the door open to find Starfire playing with her hair.
"What does Robin want?" Raven said, as the duo began walking down the hallway.
"He would like to plan something for the evening." Starfire answered, speeding ahead of her. Raven floated down the stairs, wearing a a face void of emotions, as per usual.
"Good. You're here Raven." Robin said, his voice free of that usual stern tone. Raven said nothing and sat on the opposite side of the couch, as far away from Beast as possible. She refused to look him in the eye after what happened this morning.
"What are you planning?" Raven said, yawning.
"Well, I figured we'd all go to a luau." Robin said, a happy grin on his face.
"Didn't Cyborg go to one last night?" Raven interjected.
"Yeah, but y'all didn't go." Cyborg answered, his holographic ring on.
"Blegh! All that meat? No way!" Beast Boy said, crossing his arms across his chest stubbornly.
"Relax BB, I'm pretty sure there's some veggie stuff there too." Cyborg responded.
"Come on, it'll be our first night out in town." Robin said.
"Fine." Beast Boy sighed. Raven only nodded at Robin, who's arm was slung casually around Starfire's waist.
"So, we'll all meet down here at 6, is that okay with everyone?" Robin said. All the Titans nodded and got up from their places on the couches. Beast Boy appeared next to Raven as she floated to her room, missing the security of her royal blue cloak.
"So, uh...sorry for barging in..." Beast Boy started, his voice trailing off as he looked away from Raven.
"It's okay. Just don't do it again." Raven replied curtly, hurrying into her room. If there was one thing she hated more than Beast Boy's lame jokes, it was Beast Boy's awkward apologies.
OOo
"I feel like a flower." Raven complained, as Starfire finished decking her hair with colorful flowers. Raven was wearing white shorts and a blue flowery tank top, with gladiator sandals. In her hair, were dozens of tiny flowers, which Starfire had somehow convinced Raven to let her put in.
"Are flowers not beautiful?" Starfire giggled, placing flowers into her own hair. Starfire was wearing a flowing pink dress, with white floral decorations on it and white sandals.
"That's hardly my point." Raven sighed, standing up and gazing out her window. The moon was beginning to replace the sun's place in the sky, and with it came beautiful colors, dancing in the stratosphere. Starfire shrugged and stood up, checking herself out one last time in the mirror.
Meanwhile, the boys were all downstairs, playing video games as they waited for the girls. They all wore variations of a Hawaiian shirt.
"...that's not at all what I meant." Beast Boy heard Raven say in a frustrated tone. He pressed pause on the game and watched as they two girls descended down the staircase. To his surprise, Raven actually looked pretty.
"You did not mean it in the literal sense?" Starfire asked. Raven sighed and slapped her forehead.
"No, Star, I did not." she said, getting more and more agitated. She loved her best friend, but there were times where she wished Starfire understood English better.
"You look beautiful." Robin said to Starfire, kissing her on the cheek. Cyborg and Beast Boy made a retching sound at the couple and Raven walked away in disgust. Seeing as they were single, any forms of PDA grossed the three out.
"Shut up." Robin said, blushing. Cyborg grinned and Beast Boy held back laughter.
"Are y'all ready to go?" Cyborg said, opening the door.
An hour later, the five Titans arrived at a sandy beach, where the luau would be taking place. Raven watched as men an women danced on stage in grass skirts, some spinning torches around. People were dancing and eating, little kids laughing and running around. They looked like they were having fun. Fun...it was a foreign concept to Raven, who had grown up avoiding anything of the "fun" type.
"Come on Raven." Beast Boy said, snapping Raven out of her thoughts. She followed him and the rest of her friends to a table.
"I'm gonna get some food." Beast Boy said, mostly wanting to get away from Robin and Starfire, who were once again kissing.
"I'll go with you." Raven said, trying to avert her eyes from the couple. The two headed to a table, where tons of food were laid out.
"So...enjoying yourself?" Beast Boy said, placing food on his plate.
"We've been here for less than two minutes, Beast Boy." Raven said, a friendly smile playing at her lips. All memories of that morning were forgotten, as Beast Boy grinned back at her.
"You have a point. Are you gonna dance?" Beast Boy said, as they headed back to the table, their plates full of food.
"Hell no." Raven said simply.
"It'll be fun! And you get to wear those cool grass skirts!" Beast Boy replied.
"All the more reason not to." said Raven, as she took a seat back at the table. They noticed that both Robin, Starfire and Cyborg were absent.
"I can't wait for tomorrow." Beast Boy said, grinning.
"Why?" Raven asked.
"Cuz we're going to a volcano tomorrow!" he said excitedly.
"You and Cyborg?"
"Me, you and Cyborg." Beast Boy said, correcting her.
"Oh really? And who decided I want to come?"
"I did."
"Hmm. You're lucky I find volcanoes interesting." Raven mused.
"Awesome!
Suddenly a blood curdling scream interrupted their conversation. A flying torch came speeding toward Raven and Beast Boy. Thinking quick, Raven created a tiny shield and blocked it off, as Beast Boy got into a defensive stance. Civilians ran away, screaming.
"Titans, GO!" they heard their leader shout. Beast Boy morphed into a tiger and Raven floated up into the sky, her eyes glowing an eerie white color. Suddenly, a man who was dancing on stage came leaping at Raven, a flaming torch in his hand. Raven immediately kicked him away and sent him flying into the ground. Shaking it off, the man came running at Raven, spinning his torches. A tendril of dark energy wrapped around it and sent the torch flying into the water. The man now growled and attempted to attack Raven. He pushed her to the ground, but he was no match for the Titan. Grunting, she kicked him off of her and sprang to her feet, narrowly dodging another attack. Unfortunately, she was so preoccupied with the man attacking her, she didn't see the woman behind her. The woman hit Raven in the back with the torch, sending her tumbling down the ground, a serious burn on her back.
"Raven!" Beast Boy shouted. Turning into the T-Rex, he knocked the woman off her feet with his fail and sent the man flying into the pacific ocean. Quickly, he morphed back into a human and picked up Raven, carrying her bridal style in his arms.
"Guys! Raven's hurt!" Beast Boy said frantically, as they defeated the rest of the dancers. Some vacation this was.

I don't know exactly what a luau is like, seeing as the person I got this information from is my mom, and she went to Hawaii somewhere in the mid 90's.
God knows how long ago that was.
