Second story. Really lame. Hey can you blame me? I'm still a rookie!
I told this story to my friend at a sleepover and she thought it was really good. I didn't write it on paper so here goes.
Cyborg was sitting in Titan Tower. That right. He was just sitting. He wasn't working out, kicking bad guys, playing video games, or getting even with Beast Boy. He was just sitting. Why was he sitting? He was feeling sorry for him self. (I know this is really lame, but hey I gotta start somewhere.) All of the other titans had gone to the beach for a day off. Except Raven, she said beaches were too noisy (also I would never be able to picture Raven in a swimsuit.) Cyborg couldn't. His reason, his network would break down if he got sand or a drop of seawater in his system.
'Why can I have a normal body?' thought Cyborg. 'I used to love being outdoors. Maybe I just need something to keep my mind off of me.' So Cyborg went out for a walk. Walking in the park he say kids playing in the sprinklers on that hot sunny day. That only made him feel worse.
" Nice day for some water fun." said an old man.
"Yeah," replied Cyborg, "for those people who can."

When he got back to titan tower all the titans were back from the beach.
"Dude that girl was so flirting with me." said Beast Boy to the boy wonder.
"Yeah right Beast Boy," replied Robin, "she probably just had sand in her eyes."
"Because of our relaxing day at the beach, I have prepared a wonderful dish of sand witches." said Starfire presenting a plate full of sand in the carving of sandwiches.
"I'm going to bed." said Cyborg.
"Hey Cyborg," said Robin chasing after the human robot, "what's wrong?
"Ya want me to lie or tell the truth?"
"Since I know your lying… lie."
"Nothings wrong Robin."
"Come on were friends. Would you at least tell me what's on your mind?"
Cyborg paused before replying, " I just miss having a human body. Back then I could cool off in the pool. Now I just sit at home in fear that I'll rust. Thanks for trying to help Robin, but I just need some time alone."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"You really mean you can help Cyborg with his problem!?" said an ecstatic Robin.
"In a way." replied a soft voice. Producing a small computer chip the voice said, "When your friend is sleeping put this dream chip in the middle of his forehead on his robot side, or as close as you can. I have programmed a dream that might show him that there are positives to being what he is."
"Thank you so much." replied Robin as he ran out though the dark tent.
"Just remember to tell your other friends of this. There might be a drastic attitude change. And don't wake him up if he starts yelling in his sleep." called the voice.

"You really think this will work?" whispered Beast Boy.
"Positive," replied Robin, "I've known Cassie for a while, and I trust her."
"When do we know when the dream is over?" asked Starfire.
"Give me a second." replied the boy wonder as he placed the dream chip on the sleeping robot. In the middle of the chip an energy bar was lighted. "When all the energy bars are gone, the dream will be over."
"Just give me ear plugs so I don't have to hear his ramblings." said Raven.
"Cassie didn't say that he would yell. She just said that he might yell." replied Robin.
"I wonder if our friend is having his new dream right now." wondered Starfire.
