Teen Titans
Undercover
Chapter 8- Play With Fire
This chapter contains two songs. 'Seasons in the Abyss' by Slayer and 'Play with Fire' by Hillary Duff. Neither me or jc013 own those or Teen Titans.
Raven and Beastboy sat at an expensive Italian resturant in downtown Jump City. It was well known to everyone that the Titans were loaded due to their jobs as crime fighters. Even after repairing damage to the city for every monster attack, each Titan still got a few thousand dollars in their bank accounts.
"I wish we could've seen the look on Rob's face when he heard Bird Walk." chuckled Beastboy.
"Then I suppose it was a good idea for this then." Raven brought out her comunicator and flipped it open. She pressed a few buttons and handed it to Beastboy.
"I got Falcon to record the whole thing. I've already downloaded it onto YouTube and Cyborg sent it to all the other Titans around the world."
Emerald eyes watched as Robin caught Falcon and Bohusk red handed and Bird Walk blarring in the background.
"I'm sure we won't hear the end of this for at least a week!" laughed Beastboy. "Rae! Theirs already been like over 1000 views for the video!" Raven leaned over the table to see her boyfriend's last statement was correct. Her laughter was music to the changeling's pointed ears.
Meanwhile, Bohusk and Falcon had arrived at a small urban cafe. "That has to be worth the 100,000$ prize on America's funniest home videos!" laughed Bohusk as he and Falcon entered the building hand in hand.
"Beastboy would've been proud." smiled the sorceress. The two sat at a table in the middle of the room, listening to the live band playing. A soft rock song filled the air as they ordered thier drinks. Suddenly, Vanessa started to sense a familiar energy, causing her powers to spark. Bohusk noticed this and asked, "What's wrong, babe?"
Falcon put a hand to her head and calmed herself.
"For a second I thought I sensed those jerks from school this morning." Anger flashed in her boyfriend's golden eyes. Then, just as the empath said, 3 familiar teenage boys walked through the front door of the cafe.
"Oh,
great!" groaned Falcon. The leader, Gary seemed to notice her.
"Hey guys! Check it out! It's our little girly friend from
this morning!'
"Just can't keep away can ya, toots?" asked Simon putting his arm around Vanessa just for her to shrug it off.
"Hey! Back off, douche bags!" shouted Bohusk putting his hands on her shoulders protectively.
"Why don't you make us, loser!"
"Look, I don't wanna have to embarrass you by wiping the floor with all three of ya, so why don't you just go crawl back under the rock you slithered out from and leave us in peace."
"I got a better idea." beamed Jake, the third guy in the group.
"Since it's karaoke night, how about you sing us a little song? And if you do it and are actually good, we'll leave. But if you suck, or back out, we get to show your lil girlfriend a good time." The look of disgust could not be more prominant on the golden eyed boy's face, but nevertheless, he excepted.
"Ok, you have a deal." he says shaking Jakes' hand. He then turns to Falcon. "But you have to sing after me." This took the empath by surprise, she didn't have time to resond, for Bohusk had already ran off toward the stage. He talked to the lead guitarist for a moment and suddenly, the stage went black. Then, a few screams from a guitar later, the stage was illumninated again, this time, instead of the lead guitarist, Bohusk stood center stage with a guitar and mic. "This goes out to my girl Vanessa!" he shouted over the loud music.
Razors
edge
Outlines the dead
Incisions in my head
Anticipation the
stimulation
To kill the exhilaration
[CHORUS]
Close your
eyes
Look deep in your soul
Step outside yourself
And let
your mind go
Frozen eyes stare deep in your mind as you
die
[CHORUS 2]
Close your eyes
And forget your name
Step
outside yourself
And let your thoughts drain
As you go
insane... go insane
Innate seed
To watch you bleed
A
demanding physical need
Desecrated eviscerated
Time
perpetuated
[CHORUS]
[CHORUS 2]
Inert flesh
A
bloody tomb
A decorated splatter brightens the room
An
execution a sadist ritual
Mad intervals of mind
residuals
[CHORUS]
[CHORUS 2]
these were the best
ones i could find
The
music died out and Bohusk looked into the crowd to see Falcon
grinning like Beastboy would and Gary, Simon and Jake standing in
shock, mouths agape. He jumped from the stage while the crowd was
still cheering and tossed the mic to Falcon.
"Ok, your turn
to unleash that voice of yours." Then turns to the three
stooges. "And time for you three to get the hell outta here and
away from me and my girl."
"No way, man. Not before we
see the lady perform." smirked Gary. "No, you'll leave!"
shouted Bohusk as he got up in Gary's face. Suddenly, Bohusk had a 5
inch blade staring him in the face.
"Ok, that's a big knife
you got thier. Now what does that say about your little 'friend' down
thier?" while he points at his attacker. Gary trys to swipe at
him, but Bohusk was too quick and got behind him with Gary's arm
twisted behind his back. He dropped Gary after he yelped in pain and
ran over to the band. He slipped them a 50$ and told them to play
'Testify' by Rage Against the Machine. With the loud rock music now
playing, he then turns to Vanessa and says,
"Don't worry, this won't take long." before pushing his sleeves up. Vanessa leaned against the table with her arms folded and a questioning look on her face. "Ok, but try not to get blood everywhere, cause i'm not cleaning the floor!" After two minutes of loud music and fighting, Falcon grew very irritated. Soon, her temper got the best of her.
"OK! JHONEN SIT DOWN! YOU THREE SHUT UP AND WATCH!" The four boys were quite taken back at her outburst and were frozen in place.
"What
are you talking about? They should be kicked out for this!" "No,
let them stay. They deserve to hear this." she said winking at
him. Something told Bohusk to trust her and he let himself drop the
three boys currently occupying his fists.
"Man, she's got
you on a leash like a puppy!" laughed Simon. After a death glare
from Vanessa, and a swift kick to the stomach from Bohusk, she
assended the stage.
I
can't believe it's really you
been so long
you look good
I
hear you're doing really well
don't ask me
let me tell you how
I been since when you left
since you left me for dead
finally
every tear has dried
I've wiped you
from my life
Do you
remember all the times you said you'll call me
cus' I remember all
the reasons people warned me
and now I hear you saying that you
still adore me
but if you think I'd ever get with you again
than
you can just
Love me, love me, feed the flame
if you want
me back again
burn to the sky
higher and higher
baby, can
you play with fire? (Falcon's
powers engulfed her body in an inferno of white flames)
(Burn
to the sky)
love me, love me
(far into the sky)
if you want
me
You never know just what you got till' it's gone
you
freak out
but i'm not falling for that game
boys like you,
never change
you made me feel I wasn't enough, wasn't enough
for
your love
but it was insecurity that made you run
it wasn't
me
So, don't you sit there trying to give me more excuses
I
don't have time for this
I'm off to play in Houston
and i'm too
busy with the million things I'm doing
you can't make up for what
you've done
you still try to be the one
Love me, love me,
feed the flame
if you want me back again
burn to the sky
higher
and higher
baby, can you play with fire?
(The flames grew in size causing many in the audiance to stare in
awe)
(Burn
to the sky)
love me, love me
(far into the sky)
if you want
me
Oh, by the way, by the way
I've found someone
who
gives me space (Points
to Bohusk)
keeps
me safe
makes me sane
found someone to take your place
now I
am safe
in his arms
and I decided that only he can play with
fire (Flames
increased again)
Love
me, love me, feed the flame
if you want me back again
burn to
the sky
higher and higher
baby, can you play with fire?
(It's
really you)
love me, love me
(I hear you're doing really
well)
if you want me
(finally every tear has dried)
love me,
love me
(boys like you, boys like you)
play with fire (shoots
a single white flame from her hands to the ceiling)
When the music ended, Gary, Simon and Jake stared wide eyed and speechless while Bohusk smiled and clapped.
"Dude! How the hell did she do that?!" shouted Gary once he found his voice to speak again.
"Special effects. What? Do you think she's one of the Titans or something?" laughed Bohusk.
"Ok boys. I believe we had a deal." said Vanessa approaching the table. Gary, Simon and Jake looked at eachother in defeat and left the cafe.
