A short, sad little one shot I decided to write...
...
The Tower was empty. Nothing stirred. Except me.
Thirty years had past since we all split up. Thirty years since we've seen each other.
I heard Raven died. I cried, because she was like my little sister.
Robin is also dead. Was shot right between the eyes. My Captain...My Captain...
Starfire returned to her home world. It was invaded and destroyed. Both my sisters are dead... I feel so alone.
Beast Boy committed suicide. They said he hung himself... My brother has fallen...
My batteries are starting to run low. And I don't have any spares.
Almost human
I remembered the accident. The one that took my Mom's life. Dad 'saved' me, yet I pushed him away.
I didn't feel human...
Hell, maybe I never was human. Maybe this is what I have always been. A machine...
My batteries are dying... So am I.
'Bee left me... so did everyone.
I feel so alone.
Almost human
I'm just rust now. Nothing important...
Then why do I feel...
Almost human
We used to have fun... We used to laugh.
I miss those days. It was where I felt...
Almost human
Where did everything go wrong? What did I do to deserve this?
Am I not a human in God's eyes? Am I just a soulless machine?
Someone answer me!
Glancing at the batteries now. They read two percent.
Not much time left... Is this what being human feels like?
Almost human
I was so close to it all...
But... I pushed them away...
All that mattered was being stronger... It seemed like I didn't care.
But what if I did? What if I did feel? Did care? Was it possible for a machine?
Maybe... Maybe I just could have been...
Almost human
I feel weak. I can't move.
Everything's going dark.
I wish Mom was here. I wish everyone was here...
But they're gone...
Because I pushed them all away. I didn't care... I wasn't human.
But...there were times...
My eyes begin to close. So this is what dying is like...
I shed a tear... It meant so much to me...
And in that last moment, I could have sworn that I felt...
...Almost human.
