Disclaimer – I do not own Teen Titans or The Ring, but I do own Cri and there is nothing you can do about it.
This is supposed to be a very funny oneshot spoof on The Ring but I have a hard time "doing" funny so don't blame me if its so horrible you want to strangle me. If you want to know who Cri is then please read my story The Phoenix and the Black Bird. I'm fixing it up so you will actually think it's good.
This all takes place during the horror movie marathon at the end of chapter 1 in The Phoenix and the Black Bird but you don't need to read it to understand this story, but I would like it if you read and reviewed it anyway.
Don't Answer the Phone
Cri sat down on the couch with the other Titans. Raven was on her right and Robin on her left. "Ok!" She shouted excitedly looking over the selection of movies. "Could we watch this one?" She picks up a movie Beastboy had ordered in the mail. The tape was jet black and unmarked. It hadn't even come in a case. He had told everyone it was The Ring and a good movie at that.
Robin shrugged and put in the tape as Beastboy left for the restroom and Starfire for more popcorn. Starfire got back in time to see the movie start but Beastboy was still missing. "I wonder what's taking him so long." Robin said as he pressed play. "Don't worry about the little grass stain Robin. And besides, now that he is gone there is more room on the couch."
As soon as the movie started everyone knew something was wrong. The movie was about 45 seconds long and was extremely random in a sense that it seemed like it had a few clips 20 different movies in it. What it showed ranged from water, a mirror, an eye, a ladder, and a strange circle of light. But the thing that caught Cri's attention the most was the well, an old fashioned stone well in the middle of an open field rimmed by pine trees.
A chill suddenly ran down her spine as she realized what this movie was. She turned to the group just as the movie ended. "Have any of you, by chance, seen The Ring before?" Raven nodded slowly. She was the only Titan in the room that seemed to know just how much trouble they were in. "I...I have and we are all in big trouble. That is, if the phone rings."
As if on cue the phone rang out loud and clear, splitting the silence and the tension. "Wait!" Raven exclaims suddenly. "I bet Beastboy is behind all this, he hasn't come back from the Restroom yet!" Beastboy tapped Raven lightly on the shoulder making her jump out of her seat and causing a few light bulbs to shatter. "Dude...I have been here for like half the movie."
Raven read his mind and realized with growing horror he was telling the truth. Everyone looked at the phone, which was still ringing. Raven finally reached out, and with a shaky hand turned on the speaker phone. A soft malice filled female voice echoed through the head of every Titan. "You will die in 7 decades...give or take."
All the Titans just sat there, stunned until Cri broke the silence by laughing madly, dropping her cell phone. "I have always wanted to do that! Here is the real tape you ordered Beastboy. I just swapped them!" Suddenly the whole room burst out laughing, except Raven of course.
Beastboy patted her on the back. "Great prank Cri I wish I thought of that!" Cri suddenly stopped laughing and the rest of the laughter died down upon seeing her shocked face. "Beastboy?" she said in a tiny voice. "Are you trying to tell me that every now and then you actually do think?" The room once again burst out laughing. Even Raven chuckled along, and all Beastboy could do was glare. "Very funny Cri, very funny."
Hope you liked it. I tried to make it as funny as possible. Review and tell me if you thought Beastboy was the one responsible, or if you saw that ending coming.
