"Aieeee!" Boy shrieked in terror. He changed into a chicken.
"Okay, now we need to bring the teamwork! Teamwork, people!" Cyborg cried in a panic. His thumbs moved across the video game console in a frantic blur of motion.
"No!" Robin cried, jerking his console to an awkward angle and upsetting a bag of chips. "We can't regroup and attack together now! Every Titan for himself!"
"T-too m-many ninjas..." moaned Beast Boy. Curling up in a fetal position on the couch, he covered his head.
"Fight solo or fight as a team? Which is it? Make up your mind!" Cyborg yelled angrily at Robin.
"Does it really matter? You'll probably just blow us all up anyway!" shouted Robin back at Cyborg. The video game consoles had been flung aside in anger. All thought of salvaging the game had been abandoned.
Starfire and Raven zoomed into the room.
"Raven and perceived the sound of a young female in distress!" Starfire cried.
"Starfire means we heard a girlie scream." said Raven.
"That was Low Score Lad over here!" Cyborg snarled, giving Beast Boy a mean noogie. "I'll teach you to snarl in my ear!"
"Hey! I woulda done better if you hadn't shot me, dude!" protested Beast Boy squeakily. He struggled fruitlessly in Cyborg's death hold.
"Yeah, right!" Robin huffed. "I was so close to beating the high score before you two came along." His arms were crossed against his chest defensively.
A 'Game Over' sign beeped on the screen behind them. It flashed a picture of some happy ninjas.
"Boys! Boys! Please do not fight so!" gasped Starfire as Cyborg leaped on Beast Boy. They began rolling around on the floor, fighting.
"Yeah, all this over a dumb video game?" questioned Raven. Her hands were on her hips as she watched the Beast Boy-Cyborg Epic Death Match.
Starfire smiled suddenly. "I think this calls for what in earthly custom is known as..." She pulled Robin and Raven to her.
"Urk!" Raven gasped.
"The group hug!" Starfire cried, pulling her fellow Titans to her closely.
"Starfire, I hope this is accomplishing what you want it to." said Beast Boy with a bored expression on his face.
"Oddly enough, the warm and fuzzy feeling I have inside is fading fast." sighed Starfire, her happy expression disappearing.
"I'd almost rather be playing that video game." Raven groaned.
