THIS IS A STORY ABOUT BEAST BOY BEING SCROOGE, AND RAVEN, WELL BEING THE LOVE OF HIS DREAMS, IT'S HALF AND HALF 'A CHRISTMAS CAROL', BECAUSE THERE'S GOING TO BE ROMANCE, WELL MORE, AND IT DOESN'T TAKE PLACE IN 1800. SO YEAH…

Robin picked out the tree and went back to the Titans Tower. He walked in with a huge Christmas tree, hauling it to the living room. Starfire was excited to help; after all she is well Starifre. She doesn't have this 'Christmas' on her planet, so she wanted to learn about Christmas. Cyborg had his own thing, he celebrated Kwanzaa, so he set up the traditional Kwanzaa stuff.

Beast Boy just sat there, looking through the channels. Then got up and looked through his box of stuff, while Robin was putting on ornaments with Starfire.

"Beast Boy do you want to help?" Starfire asked.

"Don't bother Star, Beast Boy's Jewish." Robin said.

"HALF Jewish!" Beast Boy shouted out.

"Whatever, he doesn't celebrate Christmas,"

"Anymore." Beast Boy whispered under his breath. He got out his menorah (The things you put candles in for the eight nights), which was a big golden one. Starfire looked amaze.

"What is that?" Starfire asked, looking at it.

"It's called a menorah, you put candles in it and light each night of Ch-anukkah." Beast Boy said.

"Isn't it prognoses Hanukkah, not Ch-anukkah." Raven said, oh there's Raven. She was reading her book in the corner of the sofa.

"Raven do you want to decorate the tree?" Robin asked. Raven shook her head. "Do you want to help Beast Boy with the menorah?" Raven shook her head again. "Do you want to help Cyborg with his…..um stuff?" Raven, again, shook her head.

She got up. "I'm going to go take a bathe." She said, and walked very fast out.

"What is with friend Raven?" Starfire asked.

"Well, I don't know what Raven is, I don't know what she celebrates, the holidays are tough for her, since you know, her father, is a (Coughs) Demon (Coughs). So I try to cheer her up." Robin explained.

That night Starfire cooked a meal, that didn't sound right okay it was dinner. Chicken, Ham, corn, and mash potatoes, okay that really doesn't sound like a feast but come on it's only five people, and Raven barely eats.

"Where's the potatoe-pancake thing?" Beast Boy asked. "You know for Hanukkah."

"I, what?" Starfire asked.

"Well that's just great." Beast Boy said. "The Holidays are ALWAYS about Christmas. All I wanted was the potato-pancake thingys!"

"Beast Boy keep your voice down." Robin said.

"Oh, and you know what's what?" Beast Boy said. "I wish Christmas didn't exist! This whole holiday is stupid! Plus where is my Tofu!"

"Beast Boy Starfire didn't know."

"Oh and then I should say the Holidays are as Starfire is, stupid!" Beast Boy yelled.

"Alright Beast Boy! If you're going to behave like this, go somewhere else, non of us are interested!" Robin said.

"Fine!" Beast Boy said and marched to his room. As Beast Boy walked back, Raven looked back on him, wishing he would come back to the table.

Beast Boy went to his room and ate some bread he found under his bed, he tried to stay calm but couldn't. Then he heard a noise, but ignored it. Then again he saw a light, and it was bluish-grayish.

It was Batman (Who knew), in some kinds of chains, no really I wouldn't do that to Batman, but it was still Batman.

"Changeling." Batman said.

"You know my old name, Batman?" He said.

"I'm here, but not physically, I'm some kind of spirit, I'm here to warn you, that if you don't appreciate your friends and Christmas, then you'll end up like me, alone and scared." Batman said. "But not the scared part, that's just you, I'm just alone."

"Yeah right, like I would believe that." Beast Boy said.

"Listen, three Ghost of spirits are coming tonight, be prepared. The first one, oh you'll know when the first one comes." Batman said and vanished. Beast Boy just went to sleep. Two hours later he heard a noise then looked up.

"I'm the Ghost of Christmas Past." It said, it kinda looked like Robin, except he was in a white gown.

"Robin?" Beast Boy said. Climbing down from his bonk bed.

"No, I'm the Ghost of Christmas Past." He said. "Come." Beast Boy followed him and they went into a light, they were in the Titans Tower except it was one year ago. Beast Boy saw the tree up and Cyborg was still having his Kwanzaa deal, but Beast Boy didn't have his menorah, he was under the tree digging presents. Robin and Starfire were exchanging gifts, Raven was sitting on the couch and just reading a book, and Terra…..Terra, Terra was under the tree with Beast Boy opening gifts too.

"Hey Terra you're alive!" Beast Boy said.

"No, this is one year ago, and they can not see nor hear you too." The Ghost said.

"Raven, at least open one." Beast Boy was begging.

"Yeah come on Raven." Robin said. Everyone was giving Raven her gifts, everyone except Terra.

"Sorry Raven, I forgot." Terra said faking it. And so was Raven too, faking not caring. Raven just opened gifts and gifts, all were books, then she got to Beast Boy's and….

"Okay, let's all go out to eat!" Terra said. Everyone got up and TRIED to look for a place to eat for Christmas, while they were gone, Terra went and opened Raven's present, it didn't showed what it was but Terra was pissed and just threw the present in the fire place, if the have a fireplace.

"So that's where the present went." Beast Boy said (The one watching).

"And later you looked out at your true love." The Ghost said. It took Beast Boy to the week after Terra died. He was looking out at Raven, noticing her from the last time before Terra exist and said sorry to himself. They went to when Raven had her boyfriend then to when he was a beast; it was horrible, seeing Raven but couldn't do a thing.

"I wanted to help her so badly, but I knew I couldn't." Beast Boy said, he closed his eyes then opened them again, and saw he was back in his room. "Just a dream." He fell back to sleep but it didn't last long 'cause then another ghost showed up, with lots of food.

"Who are you?" Beast Boy asked. The ghost looked like Starfire.

"Why I am Christmas Present." She said and ate a piece of chicken. She was dressed in a red gown. "Come we must journey to well the living room, but not being seen nor heard." She grabbed his hand and they went to well the living room.

OKAY THAT'S PART ONE, PART TWO COMING UP SOON….
