"What the hell?" he held the costume up to his body and looked at himself in the mirror, like girl trying out a prom dress. The costume fit like a glove. How could Slade have known his dimensions? Even the gloves fit, right to the thread. Robin threw the costume on a chair angrily. Slade knew everything about him. Robin sighed as he tried to think what Bat-man would do at a time like this and began regretting hanging up on his mentor.
"Hey, Raven. What was in that package?" Cyborg asked.
Raven didn't answer. She only shook her head.
Beast Boy looked at her, "Is he still upset?"
She looked out of the corner of her eyes at the teen, "What do you think?"
Beast Boy nodded his head and she continued, "Starfire's visit helped a bit. I could feel the atmosphere had lightened up a little."
Beast Boy stared at Raven, "Wow. Do you have no limit t your powers?"
"Actually, he was playing some classical music in his room." She turned to the other girl. "You must have a way with words, girl. I will never be able to talk to a person like you can." She complimented.
Starfire beamed at the compliment and took Raven's hand, "Nonsense, come. I will teach you!" Starfire then dragged Raven, against her will, to the roof of the tower.
Cyborg chuckled, "She never quits, does she?"
"Who, Starfire?" Beast Boy looked at the door where the two girls had vanished from. "Not that I've noticed. Hey, wanna play a game of 'Mecha Monkeys from Mars'?" He asked hopefully.
Cyborg shook his head, "Nah I'm kind of tired." He stood up and left the room to recharge.
Beast Boy sighed and was about to unplug the game system when a voice called to him, "I'll play."
Beast boy swiftly turned around and saw Robin standing in the archway. "Really?"
"Sure. I've never played before, so go easy." Robin flipped over the couch and landed next to the changling. What's the story about?"
Beast Boy started the game, "It's not the story that's important, it's the gameplay. This game was ranked number two on the 'Greatest Games' list. Right under 'Mega Racers.'"
Robin chuckled, "Cool."
Te two sat in the silence of robots beating the crud out of each other for a couple minutes until Beast Boy broke the silence. "So, uh, why'd you, um, leave?"
"Huh?" obviously Robin hadn't been playing attention to Beast Boy.
"Why's you leave Bat-man." Beast Boy paused the game and looked at his friend.
Robin turned to the side, "I'd rather not talk about is. Let's just say I wanted to, well, step out of his shadow. I have a new suit idea and new name, but the sit won't be ready until I'm about 20year old or so. I'll just change the name then."
"What's the name?" Beast Boy asked. HE returned to the game as he spoke.
"A name the first Robin is using currently; Nightwing." Robin also turned his attention back to the game.
Again the game stopped. "Wait, how many 'Robins' are there?"
"Three" Robin answered.
"If the first one is on is own and now you, who is with Bat-man?"
"Bat-girl." Robin answered plainly. He was getting tired of all the questions. Beast Boy appeared to be a detective at heart, he just acts foolish. I'm gonna have to change that.
"What about theSecond Robin?" Beast Boy asked.
Robin stood up. "I'm tired," He faked a stretch and a yawn and began to leave.
"What happened to the Second Robin?" Beast Boy asked again.
Robin didn't answer.
"I want an answer. I deserve an answer!" His voice was high and loud, but not scratchy. It was more like a lion's roar mixed in with an elephant's cry. This was a side of Beast Boy that Robin had not seen.
"Why?" Robin challenged.
"Because I'm your team. I, we all deserve answers." His voice returned to normal.
Robin sighed. "Tonight, at 10:00. Be there or miss out on everything you want to know."
