I stood outside the tower. The hand scanner looked complicated but my DNA
is so similar to my sister's, I was sure to get in. I placed my hand on the
scanner and the door opened. I pulled my hood even closer around my face
and I walked in. I saw 5 teens gathered around a TV. Two were playing on a
games console while the others watched. I easily recognised my sister,
Raven, with her cloak being similar to mine. I saw a girl with orange skin
called Starfire sitting next a boy called Robin. The two playing I
recognised as Cyborg and Beastboy. I smiled.
"Excuse me," I said. They all jumped and turned to look at me.
"Who are you?" Cyborg asked, raising his blaster.
"How'd you get in here?" Robin yelled, jumping up and pulling out something
that looked a little deadly. I looked around him at Raven.
"You know Rae," I said, lowering my hood," This isn't the welcome I was
expecting." Her eyes widened as she recognised me.
"Kes?" she said," Kestrel, is that you?"
"Of course it's me," I replied and she ran forward and gave me a huge hug.
"I've missed you so much," Raven said.
"Rae? Do you know this girl?" Cyborg asked. Raven let go of me and turned
to face her friends.
"Everyone," she said, "This is my twin sister, Kestrel." Everyone stared at
me.
"You never mentioned a sister," Cyborg said.
"There's a lot of stuff I've never mentioned," Raven said. They all began
talking about how Raven never tells them anything. It was then I noticed
Beastboy, just sitting there staring at me. He was kind of cute, like a
little elf. I went and sat next to him.
"Hi," I said. He turned and looked at me, as if surprised I'd even noticed
him.
"Hi," he said. I smiled.
"You're Beastboy right?" I asked.
"Yeah," He replied. I looked around me.
"This tower's great," I said. He grinned at me.
"Would you like a tour?" He asked me.
"Sure," I said," It's not like they'd notice." I looked over to everyone
else. They seemed to be squabbling. We got up and quietly left the room.
We snuck back in. They'd never even noticed we'd gone. "Oh come on guys," Robin said," We can't go on a double date like this." "Ok," Starfire smiled," But what about Kestrel?" "She can stay here for a while," Robin said. They looked at me. I smiled. "Thank you," I said, "enjoy your date." They all smiled too and Cyborg put his arm around Raven. They all said goodbye and they left. I looked at Beastboy. He smiled. I blushed. I had to admit he was cute. We headed up to the roof. The sun was setting. I sat down. Beastboy sat next to me. "You are so lucky," I said, after a moment. "Huh?" Beastboy replied. "You've got great friends and you're together all the time," I said, "I wish I'd found Raven sooner." "I sense a story here," Beastboy said. I nodded. "I arrived shortly after Raven," I started," But I've been searching the globe for her. I've met so many hero teams; it has made me feel lonely. I was searching for the one person who completed my life; my sister." "Do you know the deal with Trigon and Raven's head?" Beastboy asked. I paused for a moment. "No," I replied. I got up and went inside. I was concealing the truth and my involvement in the story. Beastboy followed me. He then led me to a room. He opened the door. It was a guest room. It had a sort of Raven vibe about it. I could have easily changed that but I wasn't in the mood. I pulled off my cloak and I hung it up on the hook, on the wall. I sighed. Beastboy leaned up against the door. I couldn't help noticing he looked very cute. "Goodnight," he said. I smiled, weakly. "Goodnight," I said. He closed the door behind him. I lay down on the bed. I sighed. I got back up and I walked over to the door. I telekinetically opened it. I walked down the corridor and into the main room. Beastboy wasn't there. I checked the kitchen. Not there either. I gave up and I went back to my room and I went to sleep as soon as my head hit the pillow.
I opened my eyes. I got up, brushed my long brown hair and I pulled my cloak on. I left the room and headed to the kitchen. Everyone was in there. "Morning Kes," Cyborg said," would you like some bacon?" "No thank you," I said, "I don't eat meat." Everyone glanced at Beastboy. "Neither does Beastboy," Raven said, registering my confused expression. I smiled. "I'm going for a walk," I said, "does anyone want to join me?" "I will," Beastboy said. "Ok," I smiled, "anyone else?" Everyone shook their heads. I shrugged and I left with Beastboy right behind me.
