I had a dream I posted this, and I apparently didn't o.o
DISCLAIMER
Beastboy's p.o.v.
Soto's ship sailed smoothly through the vast wonders of space. I can see Earth coming into view. A slight smile crosses my face. I don't know how much Earth time has past, but it's felt like an eternity to me.I thought of all my friends. Robin, Cyborg, Starfire, and Raven. I was going to swing in and surprise them with my return. I couldn't wait to see them.
I trace the outline of planet Earth growing in the window with my finger. One word escapes my mouth, "Home." It was barely a whisper. I couldn't believe I was going home. I envisioned the tower in my mind. It seemed so welcoming. I turned and gazed around the spaceship. Soto was being rather quiet.
"Hey Soto, thanks for everything," I tell him.
"You sound like you're saying byebye," Soto said sadly.
"We both knew I'd have to go home on eventually," I told him quietly.
"But Soto will miss you," Soto said quietly. I had been trying to help Soto with his grammar, but he didn't unerstand all too well.
"I'll miss you too buddy. Thankyou for everything," I told him. He steered the ship with more care as we were being pulled by Earth's gravity. With a few suspensful minutes the ship landed. I knew this place. This is the area where I left from. Soto opened the door for me to exit.
"Don't forget Soto, ok?" Soto voice came loud. I shook his hand, and told him that I could never forget him. With that I walked off his ship. He stared at me sadly as the door closed, and the ship lifted up. I waved at him, and watched until the ship was out of sight. I smiled slightly. I was home. I looked at the trees. Other planets don't have trees. I touched one just to make sure they were real. It was solid, and that brought an ear to ear grin upon my face.
I began to run out of the forest. Getting to the tower fast was my main priority. I came to the outskirts of town. Things looked different, it was probably just that I've been gone for so long. I walk the town. Hands in my pocket whistling a little tune. Then I see it. The tower. I once again start to sprint.
When I reach the water I transform into a hawk, and fly over it. I transform back as soon as I know land is beneath me. I approach the tower, and enter it. Everything is still. No one is there. I am dismayed by the emptiness, but I know I could sleep then surprise them. They all must be out for pizza or something. My return can wait til morning. I make my way down the hall to my old room. Everything is much more orderly than when I left. I climb into the bed. Sleep finds me fast.
-"Beastboy, is that you?" I hear, and someone is shaking me. I open an eye and yawn. I see my half robot friend infront of me. He looks a little older though.
"Cy," I say with delight in my voice. I sit up to face him. He smiles, and gives me a hug.
"It's good to see you BB," Cyborg says.
"I was going to surprise you guys, but I guess you found me first," I tell him. His smile fades quickly.
"Well Beastboy, actually the only people who live here are Bumblebee, Aqualad, Mas y Menos, Speedy, and I." I frowned it was pretty much Titan's East and Cyborg.
"What about the others?" I ask bracing myself for the worst.
"They're alive, but they aren't in the best shape. When you left we all did things we aren't proud of, and pulled apart," He said looking down.
"Where can I find them?" I ask him sternly.
"Robin headed north to Light City with Starfire. She may keep in touch with Raven, but I don't know." Cyborg said. I sighed Light City was far away.
"Thanks," I tell him.
"BB, bring them back here for us... Ok?" He said patting my back.
"Of course," I told him in a matter of fact tone. He handed me a communicator.
"It's yours. Keep in touch," He told me. We said our goodbyes knowing that they wouldn't be for nearly as long this time. I picked up an old backpack I left in this room years ago. I stuff it full of various things. Money which Cyborg gave me, including an emergency credit card. Food, and water. Shampoo, and soap for when I'm in a hotel, and many other toiletries. Clothing of course I'd have to buy since I've grown so much. I thanked Cyborg for everything and headed out.
