Footsteps echoed throughout a long, dark, empty hall. A door in the hallway slid open. "Robin? What are you doing up this late?" said a young, red haired teenager.

"It's nothing, go back to bed Starfire…"

"Robin, is something the matter? You should be resting…"

"I can't sleep Starfire…I'm just going to get some milk and go back to my room…"

"Then I shall accompany you. It is dark, and on my planet, there are creatures we call Zu'brehm bats…they attacked you when you are alone in the dark…" insisted Starfire.

"Alright, fine…but why aren't you asleep?" questioned Robin.

"I…I could not sleep as well…" she said glancing at her feet.

"Yeah…kinda tough isn't it…" he murmured, placing his hand on her shoulder. They turned down the hall and headed to the kitchen.

When they entered, the lights flickered on. Robin opened the refrigerator and took out a carton of milk, placing it on the counter. The glowing white slits in his mask narrowed as he stared at the carton. "Do you think he's okay Star?"

"Of course he is! nothing could happen to Cyborg!"

"But…we haven't hear from him for over two weeks…This is my fault…" he muttered. Starfire walked over next to him. She put an arm around him and whispered into his ear.

"Robin, it is not your fault…He will come back, don't worry…He just needs time…"

"He hasn't contacted you or Beastboy though. That worries me. I thought he would at least call one of you…I' afraid he got hurt or something…" he said turning to Starfire. She was only a few inches from him. He could not help but to become entranced by her beautiful face.

"It is going to turn out fine Robin, I am sure of it. There is good news though, Slade has not been around for several months!" she exclaimed.

"You're always so cheerful and optimistic." He seemed to be closer to her. "How do you do it?"

"Because I am with my friends! They care about me, and I care about them!" she said. Their faces grew closer together. They both moved in, but mere centimeters before their lips touched, the Titan's alarm sounded, red lights flashing around the base. They bulled apart, blushing slightly. The other two Titans entered the room. Beastboy still with his covers over his head.

"Whoever decided to wake me up at this ungodly hour is going to die…" Raven said slowly. Robin opened his communicator, looking at the map.

"Its police HQ…we have to get down there, right away!"
