After Star, Robin, Beast Boy, and Cyborg got over the shock that RAVEN, of all people, pulled a prank, they ate her food, which was actually pretty good. 

"So...what do we do now? Beast boy asked. The other Titans had just finished dinner and is trying to somehow put phase 3 of the plan into action. 

"Well, in order to do phase 3, we're going to have to find her and persuade her to hang out with us, beg if we have to." Cyborg announced.

"Okay..but I think that begging mayyyy be taking things a liiiittttle to far." Robin said.

"Indeed," Starfire agreed.

"Well then, let's go find Rae!" Beast Boy pumped his fist in the air.

They found Raven hunched over a book at the table.

"Hey, Rae," Beast Boy simply said.

Hearing the other Titans startled her. She slammed her book shut and just awkwardly stared at her friends like there was nothing wrong. "Hey, guys. What are you guys up to?" Raven said.

"Say...you weren't reading, were you? Hmmm? I hope you remember the dare you got...or else..." Beast Boy smirked.

"Of course not! I SWEAR I wasn't reading!" Raven defended herself.

"In that case, let us see!" Cyborg tried to get a good look at the book.

"NO!" Raven's hair started floating, her purple eyes turning red with anger as her other pair of demon eyes appeared.

The others started backing away, afraid of what was coming next. Raven noted this and immediately calmed down, returning back to normal. "Control...control...control..."Raven massaged her temple.

"R-R-Raven?" Beast Boy stammered. 

"Sorry guys...I'm fine..I...just need to get a better hold of my emotions, even though I can't because of the potion." Raven sighed.

"Well, sorry for the fussing," Starfire apologized even though it wasn't necessary for her to do so.

"It's...alright, Star. I just don't want anyone to see my book." Raven walked over to the kitchen and started to make herself some tea. 

The other Titans just stared at her uncomfortably, not so sure what to say. once Raven was done making her tea, she started back at them, and just went to her room with her tea.

However...with the heavy awkwardness in the air, Raven forgot to bring one thing with her:

Her book. 

()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()

Since Raven left to her room, the other Titans were left with her book.

"So...should we....take...a peak?" Beast Boy suggested.

"NO!" Starfire yelled. "THAT IS THE WRONG THING TO DO!"

"Oh come on....surely just oooooonnnneeee litttttllllle look couldn't hurt..." Cyborg nervously smiled.

"NO!" Starfire harrumphed.

"Well...it could be the only way we know that Raven wasn't breaking her dare," Robin looked at the book curiously. 

"..." Star was silent.

"Star?" Robin looked worried.

"OH ALL RIGHT! I suppose this IS the only way we can know whether Raven was true to her word or not..." Starfire gave in. (once more)

And so they all went over to the book.

Raven went into her room, locking the door as she did so.

"Whew! That was close! Had they seen what was in there..." Raven shuddered. "Now, to continue working on my book."

Raven looked around her room as she searched for her book.

"Wait a minute...where's my book? OH NO!" Raven rushed out of her room and started her search for her book.
