Chapter 6: Rings for the H. I. V. E.


A/N: Hello everyone! So...Hopefully I have finished this chapter before long, meaning, within the week of when I had last updated. Here it goes!

"A series of pranks."

"DUDE! THAT'S AWESOME!" Beast Boy shouted into the communicator. Everyone looked at him irritably. He smiled sheepishly, "I guess now is not the time to party, huh?"

"No BB, now is the time to plan out the series of pranks." Cyborg told the changeling, then looked at Robin, "After the pranks are done maybe?" Boy Wonder just shrugged.

"We'll have to see." he replied.

"Anyways. For this one time, my team and your team will have to work together." The Titans looked at Jinx with shock written all over their faces, that is except for Raven and Robin. They both had an amused look on their features.

"Okay. We'll be over in the H.I.V.E. Quarters in a few minutes."

"Oh. You are not coming over to the H.I.V.E. Quarters. Sorry, but I don't trust you Titans, even though it's for this thing only, I can't have you guys know where our secret hideout is."

"Understandable." Raven said. The Titans looked at her in surprise. "It's the truth, if I was a villain, I wouldn't want the good guys knowing where my hideout is."

"Anyways. We should probably just meet at a park or something." Robin told Jinx.

"There's one problem to that plan Boy Blunder." Jinx said. "Us villains aren't really welcomed in "society's" eye. We should meet somewhere else."

"Well. I have a solution. What if we give them hologram rings?" Cyborg suggested.

"What do you mean?" Jinx asked. "You mean the ring that you used to deceive the H.I.V.E. Academy?" Cyborg chuckled nervously.

"Yeah." he answered.

"It's not a half bad idea you know." Raven said.

"Okay. Raven or Kyd Wykkyd can teleport the rings to you. And Cyborg can show Gizmo what to do for personalizing. Sound good?" Robin told her. Jinx shrugged.

"Well enough." she said. "I'll send Kyd over there tomorrow at 9:00 in the morning."

"Okay. We'll see him then, and please contact us if you don't get the rings." Robin said. Jinx nodded.

"Later Titans." she said, then closed the connection.

"Okay Cy, can you please make five rings for the H.I.V.E. Five?" Robin asked Cyborg. Cyborg nodded. Raven smiled.

"Raven is something wrong?" Beast Boy asked her. Raven looked at the changeling strangely. "You're smiling." he told her.

"Oh. I was smiling because there are six members to the H.I.V.E. Five." she told the changeling.

"Oi! Robbie! There are six members to the H.I.V.E.!" BB yelled to Robin.

"Got it!" the Boy Wonder yelled back. "Cyborg! We need six rings! Not five!"

"Yeah, yeah. I know man." the half-robot half-man replied.

"We need to go get some supplies for the Tower tomorrow, Beast Boy and Cyborg is coming with me, and Starfire needs some supplies from her home planet to make some of her Tamerranean recipes." Robin informed Raven."Raven do you need anything? And do you mind being here while Kyd Wykkyd is going to get the rings?"

"No. I'll just be in my room the whole time. So it'll be fine." Robin gave her a look. "What?"

"You need to give Kyd Wykkyd the rings. In person. I know you guys had some kind of fight, it may not have been physical, but it could have been mental or, (dare I say it?) emotionally wise."

"Robin. We had a physical fight. Nothing is wrong, I have meditated, and I will always continue to meditate. There is nothing emotionally wrong with my state of being right now." Raven told Robin. Liar, Knowledge said.

Whatever, Raven snapped back at her emotion.

"Well, for some reason, I think that this fight was a lot bigger than just some physical fight. You need to get to a common ground with Wykkyd. That's one of the reasons why I chose you to stay here. Just make the make up quick. You don't want Jinx to think something is up?" Robin waited for some confirmation. "Am I correct?" he asked her firmly.

"Do you need some ego boosting Boy Wonder?" Raven asked sarcastically.

"I'll take that as a yes." Robin said, "You can go now Raven."

-The Next Morning-The T-Tower-

"So don't forget my chamomile tea. I'm running a little low on supplies. And... That's it. Try not to fight in the meat section again Beast Boy." Raven reprimanded the green, well, not so green, titan.

Beast Boy was sitting on the couch as Garfield Logan. A tan, green eyed, blond haired boy. Cyborg was as his human self, Viktor Stone. Robin was, well, his identity was still kept from the rest of the team, but he was in civilian clothes with (gasp!) sun glasses. Kid Flash was red-headed, blue-eyed Wally West, excited for his interaction with the world, for what seemed like forever Starfire had already left the night before, and would be back in the afternoon. Kid was going with the guys to grocery shopping and to buy some new video games.

"Don't forget Raven, 9 o'clock sharp." Robin warningly told her as they headed out the double doors.

The purple titan decided to try to meditate before Wykkyd came to the Tower. Getting her emotions in order, she became the empathath that everyone knew her to be...everyone that is, except for Wykkyd, unknowingly though. He was the first person that she was comfortable to be around with. In her own persona. Amazing, another person who could betray her. She wasn't comfortable of taking that chance.

Snapping out of her thoughts as she recognized someone's presence in the Tower, Raven leaped to her feet. Relaxing a little bit on realizing who it is, Raven called out the name of the intruder.

The red-eyed teleporter warily stepped out of the shadows.

"Kyd. Robin has asked me, and indirectly, you to solve whatever had happened between us."

He nodded silently.

"Personally I don't think anything is wrong. But whatever. We just won't avoid each other. We'll be the way we were before. Okay?" she told the bat-man look a like. He shrugged.

Whatever. Jinx is waiting for the rings.

"What is your relationship with Jinx anyways?" Raven cautiously asked.

We have...Kyd hesitated.A brother/sister relationship, sometimes, she gets a little obsessive.

"You don't know the meaning of obsessiveness until you've lived with Robin and his Slade obsession." she said drily, rolling her eyes. Kyd chuckled. Raven waved her hand and the rings were brought over in a wave of dark energy. She dropped them in his hands, and using her magic, closed his hands over them.

"Have fun re-designing yourself." Kyd nodded, and teleported away.

Hm. So, not the most emotional thing that has ever happened to me... Raven contemplated. At least I know the truth with my other identity. Sad that he didn't tell me before though. He could have asked me to go along with it, so that way we wouldn't have been in this awkward position. Kyd, well both of us, are hiding secrets. I'm gonna need to change my ring a little bit, so that he doesn't recognize me.

Raven reached for her book, Jasmyn, and sat down to finish reading it. Her thoughts flickered once or twice to the red-eyed teleporter, but her focus was mostly on the book.

-With Kyd Wykkyd- At the H.I.V.E.-Five-

"So Wykkyd. Did you get the rings?" Jinx asked. He nodded mutely. "Good, you can take the rings to Gizmo, I'll call everyone together after he figures out how to work the rings."

I thought that Cyborg was going to show Gizmo how to use them? Kyd said to Jinx.

"Whatever, Gizmo doesn't need Cyborg's help to figure out how to use the rings. Just go give the rings to Gizmo." Kyd gave her a look. "No way."

It's called revenge, so say it.

"Fine. Pleeaaasse?" Jinx asked, groaning.

Okay.Kyd said smirking.

"You're evil."

Aren't I supposed to be? Jinx huffed. Kyd disappeared into his cloak. Oh yeah and Jinx? Jinx almost looked around her to see who was talking, then remembered who it was.Robin is on to what you forced me to do. Just for the record.

A/N Heyyy! So...Obviously, I did not update within the week... But...better late then never, right? Please review! I thought that this would be a good place to stop...Whatever...

Hope ya guys liked it!
