Hey there, this is Chapter 2 of Secrets Revealed. Hope you enjoy it!
**Just so you know I'm making it that Beastboy joined the Doom Patrol at age 10, he was with the organization for 6 years, and he joined the Titans at age 15.**
Titans Tower
Raven was running blood tests on Beastboy when the others arrived, she let Cyborg take over and went to get some tea. When she returned she nearly dropped her tea cup. Beastboy was awake and was holding a knife out towards Cyborg, who was quite confused and unsure what to do. "Beastboy, calm down, it's just me. I'm your buddy remember, we're bros." Cy tried taking a step closer but Beastboy backed away into the corner of the med room. Raven set her cup down and calmly walked up to Cyborg, trying to remain unfazed by her green friend hissing at her
She looked at the green teen then o the tin man, "What happened Cyborg?" she asked, her normal monotone voice cracking a little as Beastboy growled at them.
Cyborg gulped, and took a step away from his best friend, "I don't know, one minute he's unconscious, the next he's freaking out and swinging a knife my way." A bing on the computer alerted them and they turned to see what the tests had to say about Beastboy. The green teen didn't move, just kept growling and hissing at the other titans, occasionally swinging his knife in their direction. "This is odd, it seems the serum in the syringe had microbots in it. Those bots are probably why he's acting the way he is now. An electric shock will deactivate them, then Beastboy should be back to normal."
As Cyborg said the words Raven turned to Beastboy and used her powers to grab ahold of him. Cyborg took the hint and grabbed a small Taser he kept in the med bay in case he needed to treat a criminal. Cyborg turned on the Taser and carefully zapped Beastboy in the shoulder. The green teen fidgeted and spasm from the electrical current running through his body, then passed out again. Raven placed Beastboy back on the bed and turned back to get her tea. Once the calming drink was back in her hands she took a seat by Beastboy and waited. Cyborg wasn't sure if he should stay or not, but seeing as how Raven could easily fend Beastboy off if he tried to attack her, he decided to leave. "Yell if ya need anything Raven." He called to her before the door closed.
Raven watched Beastboy for a while, then she got a book at began to read allowed to him, it was a habit she'd picked up from when she first introduced him to real books. He told her that she was a wonderful reader and asked if she'd read books to him. Raven had agreed, but only if he's read along with her. She was surprised at how much she enjoyed reading with someone else, not just alone.
As Raven neared the end of the book she'd been reading Beastboy began to stir. Raven placed a bookmark and set the book on the nightstand. Beastboy blinked slowly and looked around confused, then he sat up in panic, only to fall back in pain. "What happened?" Beastboy asked in a tired voice.
"The people you were fighting before, they drugged you with microbots. Cyborg shocked you in order to fry them." Raven explained. Beastboy was silent, then he started laughing.
Beastboy sat up again, this time slowly. "Marcella and Rain always loved going big." Raven gave him a questioning look but didn't have time to ask what he meant because the others soon entered the med bay.
The look Robin gave Beastboy said that he wanted answers, and he wanted them now. "Who were those people, and how do you know them?" Robin demanded. Subtlety was never a strong suit for Robin.
Beastboy looked at his leader, a tinge of fear passing over his features. "Before I was ever Doom Patrol, I joined a group called 'X', it's a criminal organization that specializes in stealing. I even helped them perfect a type of drug that was infused with microbots. It is a type of mind control, the drug knocks you out and the microbots flow throughout your system, then they have total control. The two from before were a part of the group too, Rain who knows dark magic, and Marcella who has the power of fire. The three of us formed a small group and made our way through the ranks…" **
He stopped and looked at his friends, they looked surprised and betrayed at the same time. "People called the three of us 'Phantom X' and our leader even asked me to follow in his footsteps as the next leader of the organization." Beastboy sighed as he remembered the last part. "I refused, I didn't want to be a criminal anymore. I just wanted to be free… The leader didn't take this very well, he locked me up and was going to inject me with that drug, but I escaped and found the Doom Patrol. You know the rest from there on." With his secrets out in the open Beastboy started to panic, he was afraid of what his team would do to him now that they know the truth about his past.
Robin walked to the edge of Beastboy's hospital bed and stared down at him, no emotions showing on his face. "Beastboy… I'm sorry but I have to do this." Robin pulled out a pair of handcuffs. "Until we can investigate further, Beastboy you are under arrest." The green teen looked frightened, he was shaking as Robin placed the cuffs around his wrists. "Raven, you escort him to the holding cells."
Raven didn't move at first, she couldn't believe that the boy she'd taught to love books, who always wanted to make her smile, and no matter what tried to protect people, was in handcuffs. A feeling she couldn't place filled her as she watched him shiver in fear. Earlier today he had transformed into the beast to save her, not he looked like a small child in need of saving. "I don't think this is right Robin." She told her leader.
Robin frowned at Raven, "He needs to be locked up Raven."
Starfire placed a hand on Robin's shoulder, "Please robin, Beastboy is our friend." She tried to sway him.
Robin shrugged away from her, "He was our friend, but he was a criminal first, and once a criminal always a criminal."
Cyborg looked at his leader in confusion. "Didn't you go criminal at one point, and you let Jinx go free after everything she'd done. You know this isn't right man, just let BB go."
Well robin and Cyborg bickered and Star tried to calm them down Raven grabbed Beastboy and left through a portal. Star was the first to notice they were gone, "What has happened to Friends Beastboy and Raven?" She asked, causing the other two to turn around. Cyborg smirked and Robin fumed in anger.
This is where I'm ending it. I rewrote this tree times, because I just couldn't seem to get it, I hope this version is good.
