The Quest

Costume Party

Okay guys and girls. Last chapter since my muse has been practically non-existant on this one.

But I just saw 'The Quest' again and it was too good a chance to pass up.

Disclaimer – I own nothing. Do you own anything?


Robin walked into the living room, relieved to finally be home. The training session – and the journey – had definitely taught him, but right now Robin just wanted to return to reality.

He froze as he opened the door to find all the Titans dressed in his clothes.

Maybe reality wouldn't be what he returned to straight away…

"You know," Raven said (Raven as well? How'd they convince her?) "The mask makes me feel… cool." She smiled slightly.

Robin stepped behind her.

All the others stared at him. Raven turned around, and leaped backwards across the couch, staring at him as well.

He turned his attention to the table. "Cool. Pizza." He casually jumped over the couch and landed on the seat. He picked up a slice.

"You know, Robins, the mask makes me feel cool too." He said conversationally, biting into a slice of pizza as if he walked in on his four best friends dressed up like him all the time.

Seriously, this was just weird. Not as weird as the talking bear, snake and monkey, but not something he expected to see.

He realised that all four of them had fallen over as the couch tipped over.

Robin finished his pizza slice. "So, uh, why are you all dressed up in my clothes?" He asked, looking over as the Teen Titans stood up.

"Uh…" Beast Boy opened his mouth to say something with a finger pointing up, then shut it and dropped his hand.

"We, uh…" Cyborg began.

"Yes?"

"Well, we…" Starfire shifted her feet uncomfortably.

"We, uh…" Raven was looking uncharacteristically embarrassed.

"We wanted to see what it would be like to be you?" Beast Boy offered up.

"And we missed you!" Starfire burst out, floating off the ground. "And now you have returned!"

She gave Robin one of her famous hugs.

"Good to be back Star." Robin gasped as she let him go. "So, seriously. You thought that a good way of not missing me was to become me?"

"Pretty much yeah." Cyborg admitted.

"So who's missing Cyborg, Beast Boy, Raven and Starfire?"

"Uh, Robin is?" Beast Boy said hopefully.

Robin rolled his eyes behind his mask.

"So I'm guessing the alarm hasn't gone off while I was gone."

"Well, no." Raven said. "Not once."

"Be pretty hard to explain if it did go off." Beast Boy shrugged.

"I can guess." Robin groaned.

"Since Beast Boy just said that, I'll go get changed before he jinxes the alarm." Raven sighed, standing up and taking off the mask.

A few minutes later, all the titans were dressed in their regular uniforms.

"So how was your trip?"

"Uh… eventful." Robin summed up. "And I did learn stuff, so it wasn't a waste of time. And I beat Katarou."

"Good to know." Raven said calmly. "So you won't leave off again unexpectedly?"

"What, you miss me?" Robin grinned. "No, I promise that I'll warn you guys at least a week in advance next time I have to go on a trip like that. Unless it's an emergency or something."

"Define emergency." Starfire frowned. "Because sometimes your definition is not the same as ours."

Robin smiled at her. "Emergency – life or death situation. Probably for something along the lines of… I don't know, getting asked by the Titans East for their help on something."

"Okay." Starfire agreed reluctantly. Then she flew forwards and hugged him tightly. "We missed you much!"

Robin smiled at her as she let her go. He caught her hand and pulled off the green glove that Starfire had somehow managed to keep on by accident.

"I can tell…"


Sorry it's short. As I said, my muse has been gone.

Well, last chapter, bye-bye for this story! Thanks for reading and all – and review! REEVVVIEEEWWWW!
