Disclaimer: Not mine, the show that is. I wrote this little ficlet
A/N: Hello readers! I have read fanfiction for years and have finally given in and written my own. I was watching old Teen Titan episodes and while I was watching the episode "Fractured", I got the urge to write something a little different. The idea is to portray how deeply affected Robin was by his run in with Johnny Rancid. This is my first ever fanfic so..Enjoy!
Fractured
Grey skies. Dark clouds. Lightning flashes. Rain falls…and falls…and falls…I fall. Suffocating humiliation.
Johnny Rancid got away. He got away and I fell. I'm suppose to be better than…this. The pain comes off in waves from my arm, makes me dizzy. His words ring and pulse in the back of my mind, all to the rhythm of the waves of pain. I ride the waves, ride the pain, those words…truth?
All my training, hours spent perfecting and sculpting this image…Am I still nothing but a child? Is that all I am?
I fight as Robin, a hero, an idol…but a child? Was Johnny Rancid…right?
He got away! Anger burns, smolders inside, or is it frustration? I thought I was strong enough, but maybe I'm not. Isn't it enough that I am as strong as I am…considering…considering….what--that I'm still a boy? Still a child in the eyes of the law, without this mask is that what I am? Is it all that I am?
What would he think of me now? I feel sick, not just from the pain, those words, churning and working the lines of my stomach.
The rain beats down harder. What now?
A/N: So...what did you think? Like I said before, this is my first fanfic, and yes, just in case you where wondering, I wrote this way on purpose. This is suppose to be like a free flow of emotions coming from Robin. It's been a long time since I've written anything, the first time I've ever written anything like this. Give me your opinion, love it, hate it? Why? Give me your opinion.
