The man banged his cybernetic hand on the controls causing a loud thump noise to echo in the near empty room, the doors opening with the familiar swoosh and closing.
"Somehow I have a feeling Beast Boy is the root of all this." Came out the monotone drawl of the ashy skinned girl, the hood dropped to reveal her near expressionless violet eyes gazing at the larger fellow, a thin brow cocked upwards as she watched him.
The figure's shoulders slumped as a sigh escaped from him, the signs of weariness and fatigue getting to him as he rubbed his one good eye, "It's both yes and no." The dark skinned man finally said before promptly trudging over tot h couch and flopping on it.
"Mind telling me or do you want me to guess?" She asked, walking around the couch and sitting beside him, her foot falls hardly making a sound, her head tilted towards him, waiting to hear his answer.
"It's BB but, it's a whole lot more difficult to explain." Cyborg said, rubbing his head a bit, "He's in Rhode Island." He decided to tell her that first before really saying anything else.
She remained impassive at that and blinked, though inside she was concerned, "How? Just the other hour he was in his room."
"That's the thing. He was here, and then there. Just like that." He said shaking his head, "I can't contact him anymore, his communicator went dead just that second before you came in."
"So he's lost." Raven surmised, boiling it down to that, "He can come home easily within a few hours or days." She pointed out to the other, laying a gentle hand on his upper arm in reassurance.
The cybernetic man smiled wryly and put his hand on hers gently though his eye told her that wasn't the case, "I know he's done it before, but this time… it's different. His signal was faint, and I could hardly get lock on him." He explained to her, Though he was hesitant on telling her the other bit. "And there was also another fact that he was with a group of people."
"What kind of group of people?" She asked him quickly, the faintest hint of dread in her otherwise flat tone, but squashed the feeling down quickly.
"I don't know, but one of them looked like Robin and another one was green like BB. And also another had this Green Arrow sort of look to her. I don't really know, I barely seen them before me and him talked and then, nothing." This was both physically and emotionally stressing to him. If he had a heart made out of organelles and tissues, his heart would be pumping blood quickly, but no, it was pushing in electricity and pulse like synapses through the circuitry.
"We need to tell Robin." The dark girl said firmly, pressing this to him.
Beast Boy, though not the brightest member of the group, really he was bright just not using it to his advantage, was a key member of the Titans. One of the founding members at that. He was just as important as the rest of them, and they both knew that everyone in this ragtag family of sort had a deep care and affection for him, as often as their attitudes towards him begged the differ.
"I know." He said, stressing the last word letting out another sigh, "It's just… how can his signal be that faint? It doesn't make sense. We can contact everyone that in the Titans from here all the war to Antarctica."
They both pondered at this, vaguely hearing the sounds of the door opening and closing of a new arrival, the chipper light toned humming coming from the one and only Tamaran of the group as she came in and out.
Raven was the first to break the thick silence that clung around them, "You said that there was a Robin right? Or at least someone that looked like Robin." She asked him before looking over at the static filled screen, "Did you by any chance record the conversation?"
The man in the room was silent before walking up to the lit up miniature screen before typing away at it before pulling up an image, one of the people he had spoken of, including the boy they couldn't find. "This was all I could get." He sighed, "It's not the best, but this is all I can get from it." He replied grimly.
She gotten up, the long dark cloak flowing behind and encircled her body as she stepped to the screen, looking over at the image and the people, eyes narrowed. Could it be? Maybe. "I have a theory." She said, looking at the other. "Though judging from this there are many ways this could be."
"Alright, tell me." Cyborg said, slightly leaning against the controls.
"In Azarath, the plane we exist on is unparalleled. It's protected from the Seal Of Azarath to keep us safe from harm and from others passing into there. We exist on a middle plane between dimensions, universes. There is no other Azarath, and there is no other Me's running around." Raven said to put it plainly.
"So you're saying that BB could be in a different universe?" He asked her slowly, getting a nod for an answer and let out a low groan, "Perfect."
"Honestly Cyborg, I think by now we've had worse and bizarre things happen than this." The violet haired girl pointed out. Compare to an inter-dimensional demon for a father that was hell bent on the universe's destruction, jumping back in time and to the future, The Brotherhood of Evil and all that in between, this was just another thing to add on the list.
"Yea yea I know." He quickly pulled down the image when he could hear someone walk in, looking behind to see the colorful leader in his glory, of whom had a concerned look on his face.
"Have any of you seen Beast Boy? I've been calling him for the past ten minutes and he's not responding."
The both of them looked at each other by the side of their eyes, instantly knowing what would go down. The large cybertronic man looked at the leader with a serious expression and shoulders squared, "We need to talk."
