9. Gimmie a Rewrite
And sometimes, just sometimes...people know what they're doing, and they take the right chances...
------------------------------------------
Cyborg looked up as the door to the garage burst open in a flash of pink light. Jinx stood there, tears streaming down her face. "Jinx?"
"Sometimes, Cyborg," she began, her voice breaking, "you can be a real idiot. Yes, I know how much you lost when you became what you are, but that's not the end." She walked up to him. "Sometimes...you don't need to touch to feel."
"What...what do you mean?" he asked, confused.
"I mean...feel this," she said, grabbing him by his ears and
8. Bad Ending
The Titans had returned to their various towers, although Jinx had returned with the main Titans to Jump City. She'd said there were things she had to work out.
Cyborg was in the garage, working on various projects. Jinx came in to talk to him. "Tin Man? You okay?"
The other Titans had asked him this. He'd told them he was okay, and they'd let it go. Somehow, he felt he owed Jinx more. "...no, I'm not okay."
"...wanna talk about it?"
He was silent for a long time. "...Jinx, how much do you know about my...makeup?"
"You mean you being half metal? Not much."
"When this...happened, I lost quite a bit. And I'm not j
6. Back to Reality
Beast Boy's ees opened. His mind was swimming. Part of him just wanted to let go, live in this perfect moment with Raven. But another part of him was screaming at him, trying to break free. Then he saw Raven's eyes, how they were somewhat glazed over...and he pushed her back.
"Raven!" he shouted. "This isn't you. THis isn't natural. Snap out of it!"
"WHat are you talking about?" she asked blandly. "Can't we just have a happy moment between us, no interruptions, no distractions, just once?" She leaned in to kiss him again.
Right then, Beast Boy did the only thing he could think of. Turning into a pterodactyl, h
5. Dreams Come True
Beast Boy started out racing across the sand, but as he passed the empty expanse, he began to slow down. He glanced around at the sun, surf, sand, and general air of tropical paradise of the island. THe sand squelched between his bare toes as dividing impulses warred within him. On the one hand, he really wanted to just enjoy this ultimate vacation. But on the other hand, something inside was fidgety, edgy, like an animal in a cage.
Animal in a cage...that's what was going on. His human side was perfectly comfortable here, but the animal in him, his instincts, were restless. THere was something going on here, and i
4. Just be Happy
Robin walked along the beach, lost in thought. He had changed to a set of black swimming trunks, but he kept his mask and boots on. This all seemed too good to be true, and his training under Batman had made him suspicious of sich things.
As he passed part of the beach, he glanced over and noticed Argent and Pantha. Argent was dressed in a red and black bikini, while Pantha was wearing a ellow swimsuit that resembled her normal wrestling outfit. They were indeed wrestling...in a mudpit. Robin hurried on before he got too...distracted. He wouldn't want Starfire to see him staring and get the wrong idea.
As much as he
3. Can you feel this?
Cyborg climbed the side of the mountain slowly, glancing often at the scenery. Something was strange about this place, but it was so pleasant. There was nothing to fight, no bad guys to chase...just sun, surf, sand...and the girls.
As he thought that, he crested a rise and saw Bumblbee and Jinx, sunbathing. Bumblebee was wearing a black and yellow stripe bikini that flattered her figure. Jinx was wearing a rather skimpy strapless two piece in her preferred dark purple.
*Woah,* Cyborg thought. *Jinx is...bigger than she looks. She must bind herself. And Bumblbee...damn!* He shook his head. *What am I thinking?
2. Welcome to Paradise
Robin, Beast Boy, and Cyborg walked along the beach, the sand crunching beneath their shoes. Looking ahead, they saw movement. They ducked behind a stand of palm trees.
"Okay, on three, we head out there, ready for anything," Robin said, reaching into his utility belt. Cyborg prepped his sonic cannon. Beast Boy got ready to shape change. "One...Two..."
"WHy is it always three?" asked a voice at his elbow.
They all jumped and spun. Kole smiled at them, holding a juice drink, looking relaxed in her swimsuit. "Hey, everyone. What's up? When'd you get here?"
Robin immediately began quizing. "Kole! Are you al
1. Surprise Vacation
The T-ship came down slowly, settling down on the island in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. As the canopies popped open, Robin, Beast Boy, and Cyborg hopped out of the only occupied canopies. Robin addressed the boys.
"Okay, this is where we finally picked up Raven's communicator from, so she's somewhere here. With luck, Starfire, Jinx, Argent, Bumblebee, Kole and Pantha are here, too. Or, at the very least, Raven will know where they are."
Cyborg nodded. "It's wierd, though. As soon as we landed, I lost the signal. SHe's here somewhere, but
