/I am sooo happy right now! I have over forty reviews! Thanks for everyone that has reviewed! Here is my thank you chapter!/
A scream and gunshots filled the Titans' Tower. The Titans rushed to Beastboy's room. They opened the door to see his room in shreds. His bunk bed and dresser were broken and claw marks and bullet holes were etched on the wall. The window was shattered. In the middle of the room was a note and Beastboy's communicator.
"What happened to friend Beastboy?" Starfire said.
Raven walked to the note and picked it up. On it was five words in black ink: He's not worth your time.
"We need to find him." Robin commanded. "Starfire and Raven you look from the sky. Cyborg check the surveillance cameras. I'll research on Beastboy's past. Titans Go!"
Raven and Starfire flew out the window while Cyborg left the room. Robin went over to Beastboy's bunk bed and looked underneath it. It was dark so he pulled out his flashlight. He moved some beams from the bed away and went underneath it. He was surprised to say the least. Under his bed was clean (minus the debris and bits of wood from his broken bunk). A small, black box with a silver lock was pushed all the way against the wall. Robin pulled it out and examined it. The box was heavy-probably one that was fire proof. He turned it around. It looked like an ordinary box. He put it by the door and continued searching the room.
-With Cyborg-
Cyborg went immediately to check the cameras. He wound it to ten minutes ago. Beastboy was asleep on the bottom bunk where he had left him. A man wearing all black went to the window and punched it open. Beastboy shot up like a rocket. His eyes were wide with fear. He turned and saw the man.
"Don't touch me!" Beastboy growled.
The man laughed and went threw the glass followed by ten others. They looked around the room and the first one to enter pulled out a knife and threw it. The camera fizzed.
"That is bad." Cyborg said and went to the large computer beside him. He typed in the date of the newspaper that had mysteriously appeared. He went to the USA all you need to know link. He quickly found the article. It was almost exactly the same- with one difference. There was a picture of Beastboy. Beastboy looked incredibly malnourished and had large cuts. One of his eyes was covered with a black bruise and both of his ears dropped. His clothes were ripped and torn. Cyborg looked closer. Around Beastboy's neck was a collar.
He exited out of the window and went back to google. He typed 'Galtry' but received no results, not even a record of his birth. He turned off the computer and went to go help Robin.
Robin was in Beastboy's room looking through the closet.
"Found anythin' yet?" Cyborg asked.
"I found one thing. It was under his bed." Robin answered.
"You are so brave!" Cyborg laughed.
"It was clean under there."
"Then why is the rest of his room such a mess?"
"I'm not sure." Robin said returning to searching the closet.
Cyborg went over to the box that was beside the door. "What's this?"
Robin looked to see what Cyborg was gesturing to. "That's what I found."
Cyborg picked it up and went to unlocking it. It opened with a 'click'. Inside were two books. He picked up the first book and opened it. On the page was a blond boy surrounded by a man with blond hair and a woman with black hair. They looked happy. Beside them was a man with gray hair and a lab coat who was grimacing.
"Robin, come here." Cyborg said.
Robin came and looked at the picture. "That must have been what he looked like before he was bitten by the monkey. Who's that man?" He pointed to the man that was grimacing.
"It doesn't say. I'll go look him up." Cyborg took the picture out of the book and walked out of the room.
Robin closed the book and put it aside. The other book was brown and worn. He opened it to the first page.
'Maybe third time's the charm. My last two families either abandoned me or died. Hopefully, nothing will happen to this family. I've learned a bit from the others around me. I have to be weary of Robin though- if he finds out about my past- I won't get the chance to redeem myself.'
'A journal. He thinks I would put him in jail. I guess I did threaten to do that to him once…' Robin thought.
His communicator beeped bringing him out of his thoughts. He opened it and saw Raven.
"I found something. I'm sending you my coordinates."
-With Beastboy-
"Who are you? You're not my uncle or S.T.A.R. Labs. Tell me who you are!" Beastboy threatened.
"You mean you don't remember me?" A man with gray hair asked.
"No! You should be dead!" Beastboy's eyes widened.
"No. I'm alive all right. My plan didn't work when your parents had you fly away, touching really."
"Plan?" Beastboy whispered, sinking onto the floor of his cage.
"Oh yes," the man laughed. "Consider this plan B." He pulled out a remote and pressed a button. "Your friends don't care about you the least bit you know. They aren't searching for you at all."
"They are!" Beastboy yelled.
"Look for yourself." A screen lit up and showed his friends eating breakfast.
"He's finally getting what's comin' to him." Cyborg said.
"I can't believe he thought he could start over." Robin agreed.
The screen grew black.
"No." Beastboy whimpered.
"Oh, yes. Time for bed, Garfield." The man walked out of the room and green gases came through the air vents.
Beastboy resisted for a few minutes, but in the end the gases worked and he fell asleep.
