Chapter 13
Smoothie Time!
Cyborg was reading the juice bars menu and Eitan leaned across the table at Raven, "So you new around here?"
"Beastboy pulled her close to her side, "BACK OFF PRETTY BOY, SHE'S MINE!"
"Pretty Boy?"
"Yeah mister hair gel, Robin wanna-be!"
""Whoa, whoa whoa! That's too far. I'm gonna have to ask you to leave."'
"Come on, Raven." He pulled the uncomfortable sorceress away from the smoonthie bar and looked at the koi fish pond instead.
When they came back, everyone was done their smoothies and making small talk.
"Look, I didn't know she was 'claimed' by Beast Boy! If anything I thought they'd hate each other!"
Beast Boy piped up, "Just because she's half-demon doesn't make her evil!"
"Raven's eyes widened under her hood.
"In fact, she's the most gorgeous, prettiest woman I know!
"Beast Boy..." Now she was getting shy.
After their smoothies, they decided to hit the mall. Robin hit up an electronics store and met Koby. Beast Boy and Raven frequented the ice rink where they met Maribel, Dana and Tiana. Also, Raven was pretty good on the ice. They even all played some cool tunes as they skated. Cyborg went to an all you can eat and met Cameron and Dylan, while Starfire and The Gang hit up the best cosmetology shops, nail salons, spas and clothing/shoe/accessory stores. When they were all done with Starfire's makeover, she looked a lot like their friend Meygan who moved from Stylesville to Oaksville.
After everyone was done, they met back up at the smoothie bar with bags upon bags in their hands. "I'm pooped!"
"I said I wanted to go to a book store not an ice rink!" Raven growled at Beast Boy.
"Sorry, honey, I thought you had fun at the ice rink!~" Beast Boy teased. "You're a beautiful skater!" He tickled under her chin as if she were a cat and she hit his hand away.
"Well, anyways-" Yasmin said, "What did you all buy?"
Robin; "A plasma screen TV."
Beast Boy; "Nothing, but Raven got new clothes at that store called Midnight Sun."
Raven could only nod.
Starfire laid out all her bags on the smoothie bar, "I have procured the fashions! With the help of the what was it, again? The only girls with a passion for fashion?"
"That is correct!" Cloe said and put an arm around Star.
It pissed Raven off a bit, so she sat next to Beast Boy, as he insulted Eitan some more and he was cleaning the bar.
"Okay, look, changeling! I'm sorry I hit on your girlfriend!"
"You better be." He slammed his hands on the table and leaned closer to him. "Because I'm watching you!"
"Am I supposed to intimidated by your feral attitude, because quite franly, it made me jump, but you're too cute to be scary, mister 4'7"." He pinched at Beast Boy's cheek who only growled at him.
"Say... do you like poetry Eitan?"
Yasmin's jaw dropped open.
"As a matter a fact, I do."
Yasmin cut between them. "Ya, Raven do you like pets? Let's go to the pet center!"
"Do they have any demon dogs...?" Her voice trailed off as they walked away.
One Hour Later
They all met back at the girls' office and cyborg looked way too big for their designer lip love seat. "Sooo this is home base?"
"Home base? This is our magazine office?"
"GOT ANY BATHROOMS!?" Beast Boy asked.
"Outside to the right!" Sasha barked.
"Thank you!" Beast Boy ran to the bathroom after doing a potty dance.
Cyborg rolled his eyes, "I told him not to drink too many smoothies, but he didn't!"
Sasha eyed Cyborg and sat down next to him, "So where are you from?"
"Jump City -it's near Gotham."
"No, I meant where you really live!"
"Jump city, near Gotham."
"You mean you know Batman?" Sasha asked incredulously.
"Sort of. Robin do we know Batman?"
Robin chuckled, "Of course we know Batman -he was my mentor for the longest time!"
"We know Batman. Call me Victor Stone."
"Victor Stone..."
"CALL ME DICK!" Robin yelled, and everyone laughed. "What's so funny?"
Raven pulled down her hood. "Call me Rachel Roth..." SHe said in her gravelly tone of voice.
Beast Boy kept his mouth closed. "You can call me Garfield. Garfield Logan!"
Raven giggled a bit.
"Stop making fun of my name, Raven!"
"Okay, okay. I'll stop, I'll stop!" She couldn't take Beast Boy seriously with his real name and always imagined Beast Boy as the cat cartoon whenever he brought up his actual name.
"Sooo now that we're all acquainted we-"
The doors burst open and Cameron came in with a sonic cannon for Cyborg, "It's not perfect, but I tried."
"Thanks Cam,"
"WHAT IS THAT!?" Cloe jumped. "Is that even legal!?"
"It's a sonic cannon for my arm!" Cyborg took it from Cameron. "I had your buddy Cameron fix it up for me! It's been jammed."
"Oh!- Well, no firing it off in our office!"
"What about Burdine's office?" Jade said mischievously.
"What about Burdine's office?" Yasmin said in a conspiracy theorist voice.
"Girls no! We're not sonic boomin in the house! Those are house rules!" Cyborg told them.
"Okay fineee!" They said in unison.
"But you gotta admit it would be quite comical to see the Tweevils fly!" Cloe said.
"Twee-who?" Robin asked. "What is that a kids show?"
"No, silly! They're our rival magazine company! Burdine fired Jade on her first day on the job!"
"Why?" Asked Raven.
"Yeah, what procured her firing?" Starfire asked.
"Burdine Maxwell! Jade got her carbs and she got all high maitenance and bullied Jade into submission. Her life was so totally over after that!" Cloe explained.
"Oh!" and "Right!" They all said in uniform and different ways of agreements.
"You are so true!" It was Starfire this time. "She threw a whole of burger onto the floor and her dog ate it!"
"Yeah, how do you know?" Jade asked.'
"Television!"
"Oh!" The girls all said in unison.
"Yes! I loved your show on the kids of fours!"
Everyone started laughing! But they thought she was pretty enduring to watch and hear her beautiful voice!
"Starfire... it's 4kids. Robin reminded her.
"Oh, right! My bad! Hehe!" She rubbed at the back of her head.
"Hahahahahahaha!" They all started laughin with starfire. She was embarrassed at first, but then started laughing, too!
