This is my lame attempt at humor and fluffiness. I’m in desperate need of different ‘operations’ for Cyborg, Star and Robin to scheme up. So if ya have any ideas then send me ‘em.

Disclaimer: Don’t own Teen Titans, BB guns, dartboards, voodoo dolls, the word antidisestablishmentarianism or New Year’s parties.

1. Operation: Get Raven to Have Fun

11:30pm 31st December outside Raven’s room

Commence operation: GRTHF.

Primary Objective: Convince Raven to come along to the New Year’s party.

Secondary Objectives:

-Get Raven to at least smile

-Raven must play at least two games

-If the rest of the objectives are complete, get wager money from Cyborg.

-X-

‘Why can’t she be normal and come along willingly?’ Beast Boy thought standing outside Raven’s door. ‘It would really make my job a lot easier.’ Slowly he lifted his hand and knocked on the door.

Raven looked up from her book, which she was reading by torchlight. Frankly, she was annoyed. Actually she was far beyond annoyed. She was at the point where she would willingly get out her BB gun (used to scare people when her alone time was disturbed) from under the bed and blow the person on the other side of that door to the next New Year’s party. Now that she thought about it that didn’t seem like a bad idea…

She got it out from under her bed and saw that it had enough ammo for a few good shots. All night she had been disturbed by just about everyone. Starfire, Cyborg, Robin, Starfire, Beast Boy, Starfire, Beast Boy, Cyborg, Starfire, Beast Boy, Beast Boy and Starfire in that order. The honorary Titans don’t know her well enough to even dare. She made her way to the door when the person on the other side spoke.

“Raven it’s me, Beast Boy.” He said, “Look, if you don’t wanna come, then fine we’ll stop bugging you to come. I just came up one last time to see if you changed your mind.”

Raven sighed and opened the door, rifle still in hand.

“Hey Rae, I…uh…Is that what I think it is?” He pointed to the gun in her hand.

Instead of answering she pointed the gun at a dartboard in her room that Cyborg had given her for her birthday. On it was a picture of the all the Titans when they were with Terra. The blond was completely blacked out by the holes the darts made. They were also a few on the rest and quite a bit more in Beast Boy’s case. She took aim and pulled the trigger. There was a loud bang and a hole where Beast Boy’s head used to be on the picture. ‘That should teach him for calling me Rae.’ She thought

‘Yup, it’s an BB gun. I didn’t believe her when she said she had one and she’d blow me to next Christmas at the Christmas party. Oh crap.’ He gulped. His eyes lowered to the cabinet, where a smaller version of Beast Boy sat. The same one from the puppet king incident. Except the strings had been removed and he had pins and needles inserted into his eyes, stomach and back.

“What did you do to mini me?” Beast Boy ran into her room and picked up his wooden replica and started gently pulling out the many pins.

“Give that back!” Raven made a snatch for it, but he lifted it out of her reach. ‘Damn! He’s taller than me now. Can’t reach it.’

“Why do you want it so badly? Is it a reminder of me?” He wiggled his eyebrows at her. “I knew you loved me.”

Raven froze for a second while processing the statement. She blushed for a second before regaining her posture. “Actually it’s a voodoo doll. The pins show where I want you to be cursed.”

“Just admit it Rae. Wait…WHAT!” His eyes widened in shock. He looks at the wooden version of himself, which was riddled with holes. “So you want me to be the victim of a shootout?” He laughed weakly

“That can be arranged.” She pumped up the BB gun, smiling evilly. “You have a five second head-start.”

Beast Boy ran so fast that a cloud of him was left behind. Raven smiled to herself. “He fell for it. What an idiot. Now I get the peace I deserve.”

-X-

Beast Boy ran into the main room and headed for the kitchen area. He vaulted over the unit and hid behind it. Every now and he looked behind it to see if she was following. After about ten minutes it clicked.

“She tricked me!” He said to himself. “She said it to get rid of me! Well I’m not that easily got ridden of.” He got up to leave, but met Cyborg on the way.

“You owe me some money green bean.” He said poking BB in the chest. “’Cause I don’t see Raven do you?”

“Get the cash ready tin man, ‘cause I’m gonna go get her now.”

Cyborg snorted, “Yeah right.” He spotted the puppet “Uh…why do you have that on ya?”

“Raven had it and she said she was using it as a voodoo doll. Look what she did to it! She was about to do the same to me.”

“Geez man. Why do you even bother?”

“Well…I want her to have fun, I guess. I want her to smile just once, that’ll do for me.”

Cyborg grinned evilly and started singing “Raven and Beast Boy sitting in a tree-”

“DUDE! It’s not like that!”

“Ok then.” Cyborg grinned more evilly “Raven and Beast Boy sitting in a car-”

“DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDE!” With that he turned on his heel and headed for Raven’s room.

Cyborg smirked at his leaving friend. He turned around to come face-to-face with Bumblebee. She had her hands on her hips and an expression similar of someone scolding their dog.

“That wasn’t nice y’know Sparky.”

“Oh come on, it’s so obvious that they live for each other.”

“Don’t be so certain. You could’ve misinterpreted it, it’s not like Robin and Starfire.” She pointed at the two who were dancing together to the pounding music.

“Give them a month or two and they’ll be all over each other.”

“Wanna bet?”

“How much?”

“How about $500 each? If they’re a couple by Valentine’s Day winner take all. Oh and we’ll need proof that they’re together. Knowing you lot you’ll get them to act it out for the day.”

“What kind of proof?”

“Photographic evidence and I WILL know if you’ve tampered with it. So don’t even try it Sparky.” With that Bumblebee walked over to the other members of the Titans East.

“This is gonna be easy.” Cyborg said to himself, rubbing his hands together. He then walked over to Robin and Starfire to discuss the situation.

-X-

Beast Boy arrived at Raven’s door. “Rae! Get your ass out here now! Why won’t you come to the party? It’s gonna be midnight soon and it won’t be the same without you.”

The door opened an inch. “Why are you still here? What part of I. Don’t. Care don’t you seem to understand?”

“What is your deal? Why do you always shoot me down? You don’t do it to the others.”

Raven opened her mouth to reply, but nothing came out. She tried again but nothing. She knew he was right, though she wouldn’t admit it.

“I’m right aren’t I?” He puffed out his chest proudly. “I never thought I’d see the day when the oh so smart Raven was outsmarted by the not so smart Beast Boy and his smartness.”

“That doesn’t make sense.”

“Mini me says it does.”

“Mini you can’t talk, he’s not real.”

“Yes he is, he’s right here.”

“He can’t talk he’s inanimate.”

“Huh?”

“An object Beast Boy, I forgot I have to use small words with you.”

“HEY! I know long words!”

“Antidisestablishmentarianism. What did I just say!”

“Um…something about anti freeze?”

“Point proven.”

Beast Boy decided to change the subject “Please come to the party Rae, it would mean the world to mini me.” He held the puppet in front of him.

Raven got out her BB gun and took aim.

“Don’t.”

Bang! Mini Beast Boy’s left leg was blown off…

“Ever.”

Bang! His right leg…

“Call.”

Bang! His left arm…

“Me.”

Bang! His right arm…

“Rae!”

Bang! She made a hole in the center of his forehead. Bang! Bang! Bang! Poor mini BB now resembled Swiss cheese. Bang! Mini BB was put out of his misery as Raven blew his head off.

The full size Beast Boy dropped the mangled corpse that was once his beloved puppet replica. What a nasty way to go. The author is now incredibly worried about Beast Boy’s future since mini BB was Raven’s voodoo doll.

“That was uncalled for!”

“It got the message across. Maybe next time you’ll think before you infect my life with your stupidity.”

“What is wrong with you? How come I’m always the one you put down, huh? Is it because I actually try?”

“I never asked you to try! You just assumed it.”

“What the hell was I thinking? You were born a bitch and you’ll always be a bitch. How come I didn’t what you were before?”

“Because you just can’t bear not to be the center of everyone’s attention. You know about my powers. They aren’t gonna change overnight you know!”

“I am SO sick of that powers crap. Your powers didn’t blow us to kingdom kong when dragon boy was here. So you can’t tell me that shit about your powers. Sometimes I wish he was really a wizard then he could’ve taken you far, far away and you’ll never return. It’ll make me so much happier. I don’t know how I managed to be your friend in the first place!”

“You don’t remember? You and Cyborg knocked down my door and you, being the nosy and ignorant asshole that you are, went snooping in my magic mirror. You didn’t have to keep the friendship thing. But you use it as an excuse to get me involved in things that I would rather die than do! And being friends with you was the worst thing that happened to me since the curse of my birth.”

“Why did Robin ever recruit you?”

“Because if you were leader you’d just hire a group blond bimbos for your enjoyment!”

“I don’t even want to know you anymore.”

“Finally something we agree on.”

“You can go and die for all I care.”

Raven picked up her rifle and shot mini BB until it looked like something eaten, spat out and cut with multiple chainsaws. “I hope the voodoo curse works and you suffer the fate of your doll.”

With that Raven returned to her room and slammed the door shut. Beast Boy made a few very polite gestures that were stricken from the record and stomped to his own room. Five minutes later every electrical item in the tower exploded one after the other. So everyone got a sort of hazardous firework display when it turned midnight.

-X-

Everyone had heard Beast Boy and Raven’s argument and some were even eavesdropping. Now everyone was helping pick up the broken glass. Bumblebee walked up to Cyborg with a big smug look on her face.

“Don’t even say dare to say anything Bee.”

Bumblebee put a hand on his shoulder “Y’know Sparky, at one point I thought you might have had a chance to win the bet. But now…” she put on a mock sympathy and walked off smirking all the way.

Cyborg ran over to Robin and Star and muttered to them “We HAVE to win this bet. Not only for the money but to wipe the smug look off the Titans East’s faces and get back my reputation.”

“What about our concern for the well being of our friends?” Star asked

“Uh…yeah. That too.”

Robin wasn’t convinced “You just want to show up Bee, don’t you?”

“No! What would make you think that?” Robin gave him a skeptical look but Cyborg carried on. “Let’s commence operation: Playing Cupid. Our mission is to get Rae and BB together in roughly a month. Boy Blunder, Princess Airhead and I-”

“Trash Can” Robin smirked

“Tch, fine the name doesn’t really matter. Anyway, we shall hatch a series of plans that will make them fall for one another just in time for Valentine’s Day and my big win.”

“This is not going to be easy to accomplish, friend Cyborg. I have never heard friends Raven and Beast Boy argue like so before. The do have the verbal fights regularly but they never wish death on each other.”

“Which reminds me. Where and when did Raven get a BB gun.” Robin asked. They both shrugged and began muttering their plan for the other Titans.
