Chapter eight! Wow...never thought I'd get this far so quickly!! Reviews shall be appreciated greatly and if you don't review, you have no heart! Ok, I'm joking but I'm going to assume if you don't review, it means you didn't like it...so tell me you liked it!! Wow...I'm practically forcing you to review...sorry about that...

Disclaimer: I do not own the Teen Titans. What makes you think I did?

"I hope you'll enjoy your time!" the Principal said to his daughter who ran off. "Some stands will be in action and sometimes they won't be. Now back to the rota..." The Principal looked at his list again and they all held their breath.

"Right so I said there was Kori Anders on the Drawings with your Hero stand, Victor Stone autograph Animal and Rachel with Hug your favourite Hero and..." the Principal squinted at his list.

"Garfield Logan in the Photo with your favourite hero." The Principal said. "Now what does that say?"

"So Kori's for the Drawings with your Hero stand," Gar said. "Vic's with the Autograph Animal, Rachel's for Hug your favourite Hero and I'm with Photo with your favourite hero so the person who's on the Kissohero is..." The Principal finished Gar's sentence by accident.

"Richard Grayson."

Richard Grayson. Richard Grayson. Hearing his own name being read out to be the person manning the Kissohero was shocking! Well, not that shocking because he always got the bad luck. He had the sudden urge to scream 'NOOOO!' but he didn't. He never did anything he had thought of in his head. His eyes, sorry, mask had widened with surprise. Kori had gasped and Gar and Vic just started laughing.

"Is there something wrong?" the Principal asked them, oblivious for the fact that he had just done something terrible for all those people who wanted Kori and Richard to get together. Rachel was wondering what was going to happen to Kori while she stood there, watching Richard get kissed by numerous girls who were complete strangers. She honestly thought the whole 'Kissohero' idea was stupid and who likes kissing random people they just met? Especially 150 kisses. On average, anyway. Rachel was certainly not pleased when she found out she was about to be hugged by strangers but compared to kisses, the hugs would be pleasant.

"Yes, there's something wrong!" Richard suddenly blurted out. "Look at the line! It's huge!"

"Don't make him do it!" Kori half-shouted at the Principal.

"Why?" the Principal asked, narrowing his eyes. "I don't want students telling me what to do! That's my job!"

"Um...what if there was a person who...liked him more than a friend?" Kori said, trying to think up of a reason. "And they saw him kissing another girl? Won't she get the wrong impression?"

"Hmm...they would..." the Principal said thoughtfully, while stroking his imaginary goatee. Rachel mentally slapped herself. Kori was practically saying that she liked Richard, in front of Richard. She seriously didn't want to tell Gar how she felt about him and was now wishing she had never accepted the deal they both accepted yesterday.

"Yeah...that girl would be really upset!" Gar said, trying to help Kori out.

"She would be! Especially if she was standing right in this very room!" Vic added emphasis to the last part but of course Richard didn't pick up the hint.

"She is?" he said interestingly. "Who is she?" he seemed to be genuinely asking that and Gar, Vic and Rachel had the urge to slap him.

"I dunno...maybe she might be you know...near you!" Vic said.

"Maybe a few metres away!" Gar said. "Maybe even centimetres!"

"Um...I don't think Rachel's got a crush on me but nice try." Richard laughed.

"...your right, I won't try..." Vic said, shaking his head in defeat.

"Please?" Kori was still persuading their Principal to close down the Kissohero.

"I would...but my little girl wants it so bad!" the Principal smiled at Mary who had suddenly appeared.

"Yes! I really want the Kissohero to stay." She said, grinning evilly at Kori. "Can I be first in line?"

"Sure sweetie!" the Principle said. "You can have it free, if you want!"

"Thanks, daddy!" she said and sent one more evil glance at Kori and then pushed herself into the front of the line, ignoring girls' protests. Richard paled even more and he wanted to throw up. Sure, he had kissed loads of girls in the past and he regretted in doing that. He had the status of Play Boy back then and he suddenly realised that there was no point kissing random girls when you didn't love them. The only girl he ever truly liked was Kori and if he did kiss all those girls it would be like déjà vu from ages ago and he may never get a chance with Kori.

"Now, hurry up! We've wasted enough time! GO!" the Principal yelled and Rachel, Gar and Vic rushed off to their stations at the sound of his voice while Kori just trailed sadly towards hers. If you were watching her go, you could probably see the jealously and hatred in her eyes as she passed the Kissohero. Richard watched her sympathetically and he suddenly jumped when the Principal spoke to him.

"Why aren't you going Richard?" he asked suspiciously. "There's money waiting to be reeled in!"

"I need to go and throw up." He said as if it was the most normal thing in the world.

"You what?! Well, go and then come back quickly!" Richard just ran out of the doors and tried to think of some good plan to get out of kissing girls. Random ideas started swarming through his head and they were what the name implied-random. No...he couldn't move to Canada right now! And he couldn't fly...and why was he thinking about Pandas? He could've laughed at himself but he was too busy thinking of an idea to do that. Suddenly, he did have the sudden urgency to throw up...he started running towards the boys' toilets when he passed the cafeteria. And no sound was emitting through the closed doors when it usually did because of all the students having lunch there. Out of curiosity, he opened the doors to find Karen, Roy, Garth, Wally, Kole, Joseph and Toni turning upturned chairs over and picking up mess from the floors.

"Stupid people..." Toni muttered to herself in her British accent. "Why did they make us clean the cafeteria?"

"Why are you guys cleaning the cafeteria?" Richard asked predictably when he came in.

"Well when people heard there was a Comic Con they rushed out of the cafeteria and..." Roy looked up to see what Richard was wearing. "HAHA!" everyone else looked up at the sound of Roy's laughter and started sniggering too.

"Nice outfit Robin." Toni sniggered.

"What's so funny?" Richard asked annoyed. Then he remembered he was wearing a ridiculous costume. "Oh...that..."

"Are you wearing Robin's costume?" Kole asked, giggling. "Wow...you look exactly like him it's creepy!" Joseph nodded but of course didn't say anything because he was mute. But he did sign: Very creepy.

"Wow...that is so weird!" Karen exclaimed, looking at Richard. "Are you sure we aren't looking at the real Robin?"

"Don't ask me!" Toni said. "I have no idea. He's identical!"

"And he almost doesn't look retarded!" Roy added, snickering. Toni started smirking too.

"Shut up, Roy." Richard said.

"Dude...where can I get that costume?" Wally asked unhelpfully. Richard glared at him.

"So Robin, why are you here? Why aren't you helping out?" Karen asked.

"My name's Rich- I give up! Ok, well they're making me do the Kissohero and I'm trying to figure out a way to avoid kissing 150 people! Now tell me, why are you here, cleaning the cafeteria?" Richard asked.

"Because people somehow made a mess when they all rushed out of the cafeteria to go to the Comic Con!" Garth explained.

"Everyone?" Richard asked. "That would be quite a lot of people..."

"Well, mostly the girls went and some of the boys and then the girls' boyfriend's followed them which made the girls' boyfriend's friends follow him." Karen explained.

"Um..." Richard was slightly confused. "Ok..." his eyes travelled onto the school's menu for today. It read: Today's Special: Sushi Garth noticed what Richard was reading and read it too.

"Sushi...why do people want to eat fish?" Garth said to himself.

"Yeah, I hate fish too." Toni said in disgust.

"Because it tastes good!" Roy said overhearing him and making it sound like it was obvious. "I had fish Tacos just yesterday!"

"I'm gonna be sick..." Garth moaned.

"Fish..." Richard was suddenly hit with inspiration. He started running towards a door which said STAFF ONLY. After a couple of seconds he came running back out with a raw fish. Kole and Joseph stared at him like he was mad.

"Um...why do you have a fish?" Toni asked.

"He's gonna eat it, obviously! And chop it with his amazing karate! Isn't that right, Robin?" Roy said. Richard ignored him.

"I'll explain later." Richard said to Toni and he left the cafeteria.

** ** ** ** **

The Hall

"Ok, you can sit beside Starfire and I'll start drawing you." Jenn said to the girl who was next in line. She happily nodded and sat next to 'Starfire' who was also referred to Kori (If you guys are wondering, Jenn is not wearing a Jinx costume because she's not one of the 'heroes', apparently).

"Now stop staring at Starfire and look at me!" Jenn said to the girl who was doing just that. She started smiling broadly at Jenn who started sketching right away. After a few minutes, Jenn noticed Kori's expression on her face.

"Are you alright, Kori?" she asked, concerned. "Something bothering you?"

"Her name's Starfire!" the girl protested but Jenn ignored her.

"Let's just say that a certain boy has to be the person girls get to kiss." Kori said vaguely but nevertheless, Jenn understood.

"Oh no...Richard's being a Dick again? Ha ha." Jenn laughed.

"No, he didn't want to be the person there, Jenn." Kori said. "And what do you mean, 'again'? He's perfectly nice to me."

"Of course he is! Kori, don't you know he has a massive crush on you!" Jenn said, exasperated.

"Her name's Starfire!" the girl corrected again. Of course, they both ignored her.

"Oh yeah? Then why is he coming back in walking directly to the Kissohero?" Kori asked. Jenn turned around.

"He is?! Why, I'm so going to get the others to have a nice, long chat with him." Jenn said sinisterly.

"Can you start drawing, please?" the girl asked irritated. "I have ballet club at one!"

"Um...ok!" Jenn said and continued to draw again. She was very talented at drawing so she was quite good at sketching which also made her be quick to finish.

With Richard....

"Where have you been?" the Principal yelled at Richard. "We're going to lose people at this rate!"

"Sorry, I was really sick!" Richard said, adding emphasis to the word 'sick'. Unfortunately, this didn't work for the girls as he was either too cute (um...) or they just didn't hear him.

"I don't care!" the Principal noticed that Richard appeared to be hiding something. "What do you have behind your back?"

"Nothing." Richard said abruptly, walking sideways to the Kissohero stand where girls were enlightening at his arrival. The Principal raised an eyebrow.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes."

"Positive?"

"I'm as positive as that the sun will set today."

"I'm still unsure..."

"Bye!" Richard quickly raced to the Kissohero and stood behind the stand. As soon as he got there, someone grabbed him by the shirt.

With Kori

"Just a few more minutes..." Jenn said, as she started doing the shading and finishing touches. Kori was struggling to keep a smile on her face but it was drooping as she saw Richard go behind the stand ready for the kisses and by then, she was frowning.

"Kori!" Jenn said suddenly. "Smile!"

"Finally!" someone yelled loudly. Everyone turned to the direction of the shout and Kori saw her worst nightmare. Mary Holden and Richard Grayson, kissing. Right on the lips. A full smooch. Mary was making a really loud kissing noise and after for what seemed forever, she pulled away and shoved Richard backwards. Then she applied some more lip gloss to her mouth, rubbed her lips together and sauntered off while everyone was still staring at her. Kori was gaping, her jaw touching the floor.

"Holy..." Jenn whispered and didn't finish her sentence. Then she looked at Kori. "Um...are you alright...Kori?" Kori didn't reply even when the jaw was back in the right place. Jenn noticed her mouth was wobbling slightly as if she was about to burst into tears.

"Yeah...yeah..." she said vaguely, when her mouth had stopped wobbling. She was expecting that but...she never knew it could be that painful. Tears in her eyes, she tried to smile again and the girl sitting beside her seemed to be oblivious that she was really upset.

With Richard...

As soon as he had gotten behind the stand, someone had grabbed him by the shirt roughly.

"Finally!" someone yelled. He suddenly himself being yanked forward and onto somebody's lips. It felt disgusting and squidgy and all the other horrible adjectives in the world. He couldn't understand why he had liked kissing girls like that before. Or maybe this girl was just a bad kisser. Please don't let Kori be watching, please don't let Kori be watching he pleaded inside his mind. When he finally had stopped kissing her, he was suddenly shoved back for no reason whatsoever and then he saw Kori gaping, Gar, Vic and Rachel staring and Mary sauntering off. Oh no...Mary?! I had kissed Mary?! Oh no...I really need to brush my teeth tonight...oh no...Kori was watching! She's going to be really mad at me now! What did I do to deserve this?! He got up and fortunately for him, everyone had forgotten about the kiss so he quickly picked up the fish (which he hoped no one had seen yet) and hid it from the next girl he was about to smooch. Yuck.

"Hi there." She said, fluttering her eyelashes. Taking a deep breath, he tried to use the most flattering and seducing smile he could and said: "Hello. Have you put on strawberry lip gloss lately?"

"Um..." she quickly turned around and started frantically putting on lip gloss and then turned back round, smiling.

"Yes," she answered. She leaned in to kiss, but then Richard stopped her.

"Wait! I advise you to close your eyes." He purred.

"Why?"

"Because I said so." He said which was a rather silly reason but the girl closed her eyes hopefully anyway. They both started leaning in for a kiss and just before they did, Richard quickly put the fish between them! So now the girl was romantically kissing a fish and fortunately, no one could see that because it was looking like Richard was kissing her from behind. When she started opening her eyes, he quickly made the fish disappear so the girl didn't suspect anything.

"That was the best kiss of my life." She said serenely.

"Of course it was." Richard said but he was thinking: I don't think she's kissed any one before to think a fish is a good kisser...

With Gar...

"Move over to the right!" the camera person instructed. The camera person was simply a teacher with a camera. And not a very good one at that. Mr. Mod was the teacher to be precise. "Come on, you little duckies!" An eighth grade girl was standing next to Gar (cough) Beast Boy (cough) and was smiling like mad. She had her arm wrapped around Gar who was started to get bored. At first he was happy enough to smile when people came to have a picture taken, but it was getting boring after the first fifty shots.

"Fine." Gar had a bored look on his face. There was a click and a flash of light when Gar was temporarily blinded and then the girl paid Mr. Mod, took the photo and walked off to the Kissohero.

"Bye, Beast Boy!" she called back.

"Dude! My name's Gar!" Gar insisted.

"Well my little snot, your name is Beast Boy here so stop whining and start smiling!" Mr. Mod

"My name's Gar!" Gar protested. "And this Comic Con is stupid! And that's saying something because I love Comic Cons!"

"Now, now duckie! You're doing this for your extra credit, aren't you?" Mr. Mod said. "So stop complaining! NEXT!" a young boy came up and Gar groaned. This was definitely not worth extra credit. The boy just put his arm around Gar's/Beast Boy's shoulders as if they were best buddies or something. Gar witnessed another temporary blindness moment and then to his horror, the next girl came up. Expect, she wasn't an ordinary girl. She was about 10 feet tall and had huge muscles and she looked like she could squeeze Gar to death in a matter of seconds.

"Hello Beast Boy!" she said in an abnormally deep voice.

"Hi...err...who are you?" Gar asked extremely nervous.

"I'm Bertha. I'm the captain of the boys' wrestling team." She said proudly and stood beside Gar which was one of the most funniest sights you'd ever see. If you found height contrast funny anyway. Mr. Mod smirked slightly before yelling: "Now my dearie! Make sure you stand right close to Beast Boy over there!" She obediently moved very close to Gar who was starting to feel uncomfortable. She was like a skyscraper to him. He could just about see her head but only just.

"Give 'im a hug too!" Mr. Mod added. Suddenly, Gar felt all his life and breath and guts squeeze out of him. He started choking and spluttering and he felt like he was about to suffocate. The pain...the agony...and he thought Kori's hugs were bone-crushing. This girl was shredding his bones. After what seemed like a lifetime (which it probably was considering Gar might have been dead then) she let go and triumphantly smiled at the camera.

With Rachel...

Rachel groaned as the next person came up. She stepped out from behind the stand and stood there, motionless. The girl took this as a cue to hug her so she did and started hugging her tightly. Rachel was not really a fan of hugs, in fact she detested them but still sometimes let Kori hug her anyway. After a few, dreadful minutes Rachel had enough for some stranger hugging her.

"Ok, you've had your fill now pay and go!" she said irritably. The girl smiled at her who Rachel didn't respond to and then she paid. Rachel glanced the queue and saw that it was getting really long. Why on earth would people want to hug her?! What was the fun of that?! But despite all that, she continued receiving unwanted hugs and was thinking One down, sixty three more to go. The next person came up to Rachel and he was about the same age as Rachel. He gave her a big hug but Rachel noticed his hugs were slightly different. Almost like...a girlfriend hug! He was rubbing her back which was making feel Rachel uncomfortable and annoyed.

"Are you free tonight?" he asked in a low voice. That did it. Rachel shoved him off and stared him right in the eye with the most threatening look on her face.

"You do not seduce me like that or you'll find your face rearranged in a few seconds. Got it?!" Rachel stared at him hard and he gulped, scared. The boy swore four eyes but then it was gone. He nodded meekly.

"Now go and pay and make sure you don't come here again!" Rachel snarled and the boy immediately scarpered.

With Vic...

"Cool!" a boy exclaimed as he started poking Vic's (fake) metal parts. "Is this real?" Vic wanted to say the truth and say 'no, they're fake' but didn't which usually happened to lots of people in this story.

"Do you want to autograph or what man?!" Vic said through gritted teeth.

"Ok, ok fine!" the boy said. "You know, I've always wanted to meet a superhero."

"Oh really?" Vic said, pretending to be interested. Well you haven't yet were Vic's unsaid words.

"Yep! I can't believe you guys actually came to our school! But the teachers told us to treat you guys with respect." He said. Words from elementary school...Vic thought.

"Ok then...NEXT!" Vic yelled and the next person came up. He signed her Maths Book and looked over to Richard's stand. When he saw what he was doing he wanted to burst out laughing. And what made it even funnier was that no one was noticing yet. He then looked over to Kori who was still looking upset, even though she had a fake smile plastered over her face. Richard better sort it out with her soon before I beat him up...Another person had come up to him so he signed his playstation game and then looked over to a very bored looking Gar. He was pretty unlike himself but Rachel wasn't when Vic looked over to her stand. That was totally wrong stand for her and just her luck for her to get it first. Vic sighed as he saw how long the line still was. They were all praying this was going to be over soon.

** ** ** ** **

The bell rang.

Students started groaning as they left the Assembly Hall as some of them didn't get a chance to go to their favourite stand. The five of them were exhausted while Jenn just had an aching hand.

"I can't believe the school day isn't over yet." Gar said. "I felt like I was standing there for five hours..."

"At least you didn't get hugged!" Rachel said.

"I'd much rather get hugged than get blinded by flashing lights all day." Gar said. He accidentally bumped into a wall while they were walking.

"Ow! See? I can't even see properly!" Gar insisted. Vic, Kori, Jenn and Richard came over and handed their profits over to the Principal who looked at the money with a mischievous smile on his face. They were all too tired to figure out what that meant.

"I'm going to go to class before I get told off." Jenn said. "Bye." She left the hall.

"Can we get changed now?" Vic asked. "This metal feels like a ton!"

"I don't want to go to class looking like this!" Rachel said, indicating her Leotard.

"Well, you have about precisely 14.6 seconds to change-" As soon as the Principal has said that, there was a sudden rush of wind and smoke formed by dust. The Principal coughed for a bit.

"Those students should really join Track." He said to himself before walking out the door. He'd already gone when Kori and Richard came back from changing out of their (ridiculous) costumes.

"That was fun, wasn't it?" Richard said trying to start up a conversation while forgetting that Kori might be slightly mad at him.

"No." She replied stiffly and crashed through the double doors so furiously that it was still swinging back and forth.

"Um..." Richard trailed off when she'd gone. Then he remembered what happened less than an hour ago. "Darn it..." he cursed.

"What's the matter?" Gar asked. He was still rubbing his face as there was still green face paint present.

"Kori's mad at me." Richard replied. "I blame that stupid girl..."

"Who, Mary or Kori?" Gar asked.

"No, not Kori! I mean...her. I can't even stand to say her name. I officially hate anyone called Mary." Richard announced.

"What about Mary from Homeroom? You know, the one you said was really nice?" Gar reminded.

"...I hate her too." Richard said.

"Dude!!! What if you had a child called Mary?!" Gar yelled.

"Shut up Gar." Richard said and left the hall. Gar also knew that Richard's mother was called Mary but he wasn't even sure if Richard remembered that. They had died such a long time ago and he had practically removed them from out of his mind.

"What's the matter with Richard?" Rachel asked when Richard had left.

"Kori's annoyed with Richard and Richard's annoyed with Mary and I'm guessing Mary doesn't like Kori much." Gar explained.

"So a hate triangle?" Rachel suggested. "We better go to class now or we'll get told off."

"Where's Vic?"

"He's still changing."

"Shouldn't we wait for him?"

"Yes, you should!" Vic yelled as he went over to them.

"That was quick! Just a few minutes ago you were still trying to get the metal off your left arm." Rachel said surprised. Vic shrugged.

"I found a way to get it off quickly." He said, shrugging. The three of them pushed the doors and exited the hall. Nobody was around so this meant that classes had probably already started.

"I was thinking we should go back to that dimension." Vic said suddenly. Rachel and Gar stared (up) at him.

"What?" they said in unison. "Why?"

"Well, you know that the people on the show look exactly like them," Vic said."I was thinking that they probably have somethin' to do with it." Rachel thought about this for a moment.

"You may be onto something, Vic." She said.

"I am? Oh yeah! Sure I am!" Vic corrected himself.

"Yeah, I'm thinking this concidence is a rather big concidence." Rachel said.

"So we have to squish ourselves in that 1cm squared area? I don't want a repeat of that dude..." Gar said. "I think I almost died."

"Ok, ok Gar! Because of your whining I'll adapt the machine." Vic said as they came across a corner. "Gotta go guys, see ya!"

"See ya." Gar said as he and Rachel turned the other way.

** ** ** ** **

"Now, here are some contour lines..." their geography teacher was droning on and on while nobody was taking what he was saying, in. Apart from some nerd in the far corner of the classroom who was taking notes. Jenn was leaning against her hand and was bored to sleep. She yawned once or twice but the teacher didn't notice. The teacher looked bored himself and he had bags under his eyes suggesting that he needed a lot of sleep.

"Remember that they..." he didn't finish his sentence as he lost control of his legs and flopped onto the floor with a loud thud. The class in unison was awoken from their slumber and peered at their teacher.

"Wow, he only fell asleep once. Must be a record." Someone commented. Everyone thought that their teacher falling asleep was an excuse to talk so that's exactly what they did.

"Hey, Jenn!" Wally said, nudging Jenn. Jenn didn't reply.

"Jenn!" Nudge.

No reply.

"Jenn!" Nudge.

No reply.

"Jenn!" Nudge.

No reply.

"Jenn!" Nudge.

"What?!" Jenn snapped at Wally.

"Right so four pokes..." Wally said to himself and started writing down something in his notebook.

"What was the point of that?" Jenn asked annoyed.

"The teacher told us to make a graph on any experiment we wanted. She told us to make it interesting." Wally said. "So I decided to do the number of pokes people need until they reply." Jenn started at him.

"Your joking, right?" she said.

"Does it look like I'm joking?" Kidflash asked.

"Yeah, yeah it does." Jenn replied.

"Oh." Wally said. "Ok so I've done you, Roy, Garth, Toni and Joseph..."

"Um, Wally." Jenn said. "Joseph is mute. He can't talk."

"I know, I'm not stupid Jenn." Wally said.

"Could've fooled me..." she mumbled under her breath.

"I'm not deaf either!" Wally added. "Kole just said 'What!' for him but I'm still counting it as Joseph..." Jenn turned to Kole.

"Aww, you said something for Joseph, eh?" Jenn smirked. "I knew you were perfect for each other!"

"Shut up! He's right here!" Kole hissed, pointing to the boy sitting next to him. He turned around and waved which meant 'Hi! Are you talking about me?'

"I know he is! That's why I said it loud!" Jenn said.

"You make one tiny thing mean that I like him." Kole said.

"Because you do! Stop denying it!" Jenn said.

"I'll only stop denying it when you stop denying you like Wally!" Kole said. Jenn turned red but luckily for her, Wally didn't hear that. He was too busy looking at his graph.

"I don't like him! He's only a friend! Got that? F-R-I-E-N-D!" Jenn insisted.

"You missed out three letters!"

"What letters?"

"B-O-Y!" Kole said. "Boyfriend!"

"Ugh! I'll never convince you, will I?" Jenn muttered.

"Nope!" Kole said.

"Well, it's obvious you like Joseph you know." Jenn said.

"I do not!"

"What makes you think I'll believe you? Ok look! We'll make a deal." Jenn said.

"What deal?" Kole asked.

"If one of us tells our crushes, I mean if we have crushes, then the other person has to do too. Alright?" Jenn held out a hand. Kole looked at it for a second and then shook it.

"Deal."

"Deal." They let go of each other's hands and turned back around. Just a few seconds after that, someone tapped Jenn's shoulder. As if she didn't have enough of that already.

"What is it Wally?" Jenn growled.

"Hey! I didn't do it!" Wally said innocently. "It was that guy!" he pointed to a boy behind Jenn.

"Yes, it was me." He said which confirmed Wally's accusation.

"Ok, what do you want stranger?" Jenn asked.

"Why don't you like them anymore?" he asked rather forcefully which made no sense to Jenn.

"I seriously don't know what you're talking about." Jenn replied. "Who's them?"

"Duh! Robin, Starfire, Beast Boy, Cyborg and Raven!" he said making it sound Jenn was dumb or something.

"Who?" Wally asked confused.

"They're talking about Kori, Richard, Gar, Rachel and Vic!" Jenn hissed to Wally from the corner of her mouth. "Ok, when did you get the impression that I don't like them?"

"You were there!" the boy said exasperated.

"I was? Where was I?" Jenn asked. "You are making no sense."

"When you crashed into Titans Tower! And you were with your boyfriend Gizmo and Mammoth!"

"You WHAT?!" Jenn shrieked which stopped the class shrieking at once.

"She doesn't have a boyfriend!" Wally yelled. "Do you? Because if you do, he's gonna get a piece of my-" he realised the whole class including Jenn and the boy was looking at him. "Um...pretend I didn't say anything."

"Are you talking about that weird, short Gizmo kid?!" Jenn asked furiously. "Because I hate him! And that tall guy with the extinct name!"

"And we hate her!" The 'Gizmo' Kid was standing at Jenn's chair but he was so short, Jenn probably wouldn't have noticed him if he hadn't had talked.

"She's a traitor!" boomed a deep voice who was owned by the 'tall guy with the extinct name'. Also referred to as Mammoth and Gizmo.

"How do you kiss when he's so short? Does he have to climb a ladder?" the boy sniggered. He stopped laughing when Wally started shouting at him.

"Ok little boy with no name! She's not going out with that Gizmo kid and she's not a bad guy and she hates them! Got it?" Wally shouted at the boy which was really unlike him. He was usually a prankster/jokester. Kole and Joseph were staring at the scene and the teacher was just snoring and drooling.

"Um...it's okay Wally." Jenn said nervously. "I've got this." He turned back around to her and immediately let go of the boy and sat down meekly.

"So err...shove off kid." Jenn concluded randomly and sat down too. The boy was looking rather frightened and sat down obediently. Gizmo and Mammoth just trailed off to their seats. Everyone just resumed back to chatter after that.

"See? Wally does like you!" Kole giggled.

"Well I don't like him back." Jenn said firmly.

"If you say so."

** ** ** ** **

The end of school bell was probably one of the best sounds for any student in Jump City High. Students shoved past each other to get to the front doors and escape the school infused air because it's obviously toxic. Vic had already told Kori and Richard that they were going to go to the Teen Titans again to see if they were behind anything. They both agreed but Kori was still a bit huffy with Richard, which everyone noticed.

"Don't worry about it Richard, she's Kori she won't hold a grudge for long." Gar had said to him. They also weren't ever trampled on by fans which were a surprise to them. They usually only waved gleefully when they saw them. Perhaps they had their fill during the Teen Titans Comic Con! They also all agreed to go by Vic's 4X4 again ("Dude! That's harmful for the environment!") to head for Vic's house. The drive was silent as no one had anything to say and Kori, who was usually the person to start up a conversation, didn't.

"Here we are, y'all." Vic said as they parked into Vic's garage. "The lab's in the basement."

"You have a lab in the basement?" Rachel inquired.

"It's only a small lab and it's used in emergencies." Vic explained. "My parents usually go to the actual S.T.A.R labs." The five of them walked down the stairs into the basement. Despite the fact it was small, it was quite impressive with all the hi-tech gear Gar was amazed by.

"Dude! Do you actually know what all of this is?" Gar asked, amazed. Richard, Rachel and Kori had a look around too.

"Yeah." Vic called from the storage cupboard. "Ok, the machine should be here-OUCH! Stupid metal detector..." The others ignored him and continued admiring the machinery.

"Um...Kori..." Richard said, clearing his throat. She turned around to face him. "I know you're mad but..."

"Richard, I saw you kiss that girl so don't deny it." Kori said. "And it's obvious that you enjoyed it."

"What makes you think I enjoyed it?" Richard asked, shocked.

"You were all smirking and flirting afterwards." Kori answered. Richard took a brief moment to understand what Kori was getting at.

"Oh..." he said. "Well, I was actually..."

"I don't want to hear how nice it was thank you very much." Kori said harshly and walked off to look at something else. Richard sighed inaudibly.

"Girls..." he muttered.

"Hey Vic! What's taking so long?" Gar asked. After a few clunks and thunks, Vic got out with expression mixed with surprise, shock and fear.

"What's the matter, Vic?" Gar asked.

"Are you alright?" Rachel asked. Vic waited for a moment before he said:

"Guys...the Machine's gone."

MWHAHAHAHAHAH! I've left you on a cliff hanger! I'm getting good at this! So? Did you like it? Hate it? Don't know? Well please review on how you thought about it! They make me feel appreciated!

Yes, they (Kori and Richard) do have a child called Mary expect its spelt 'Mar'i'. I'm still open for ideas! I'm running out! *crowd gasps* So I put Kf/Jinx and Kole/Jericho in here for all you fans! And if you're thinking: "I thought she hated Kidflash/Jinx because she has an OC who goes out with him!!!!" well err....don't be! I couldn't care less about Kidflash/Emily's relationship! Don't ask why I even made that OC in the first place...I was young and foolish back then...He he! :-)

The part with the girl saying 'I'm the captain for the boys's wrestling team' was a joke from a T.V. show if you're wondering. So fine, I don't own it but it's still funny, right???

Bye!!!
