Chapter 2

A large crow flew over the city and landed on top of a ruined building. It squawked as it watched a lone police officer carry a bunch of red and white flowers towards an old cemetery on the outskirts of the city. It squawked again as it took flight and followed after him. The cop stopped outside the cemetery and looked up at the sky above him. He sighed through a small smile as a stray rain drop fell and splashed against his face.

"Not again" he sighed sadly as he pushed open the rusty gates and entered the cemetery. He walked through the place, his large body pushed past the tree branches that had grown to long to stay above the ground. He stopped beside two small tombstones and took off his hat revealing a half human half metal face below the hats rim. Cyborg wiped away his tears as looked down at the two simple head stones. It had been a year to the day since he last came here, last time however he buried two of his closet friends this time he was paying his respects.

"Hey guys how have you been?" he smiled as he placed his hat under his arm and crouched down in front of the first tombstone. The tombstone was a simple one, unfortunately moss had covered the name of the person lying there.

"I asked that idiot to keep these graves clean" he complained as he brushed the moss off of the tombstone revealing the name Raven, "Hey Rae I brought these for you" he smiled as he placed the flowers on the ground just in front of the head stone. He stood back and up and made his way over to the head stone beside it and smiled as he noticed that there was no moss on this one.

"Sorry man I usually don't give flowers to guys" he said as he knelt down and placed a single white flower on the grave stone.

"Why did you have to die Robin?" he asked as he looked at the head stone, he knew he wouldn't get an answer but he always asked.

"Well I suppose you guys wanna know what's happened over the past year?" he smiled as he looked at both of the head stones.

"Well as you can see I'm a cop now" he said as he unbuttoned his coat and revealed his police officer's uniform beneath it, "I know, I know it looks stupid on me but hey I can deal with it, plus I get to eat all the donuts I want" he said with a smile as he buttoned up his jacket once again.

"But seriously I joined the force so I could get the bastard who did this to you" he said as his face went from being happy to having a serious look on it, "But enough about me I suppose you wanna find out about BB and Star, am I right?" he said as the smile returned to his face. A slight breeze blew through the cemetery causing the flower that lay on top of Robins head stone to fall off and land on the ground in front of it.

"Well BB skipped town, he said that he couldn't bare living in the city anymore. He took your deaths really badly" sighed Cyborg sadly as he remembered the day Beast Boy ran away leaving only a note behind him.

"Yo I'm looking for an opponent to whoop at Ultimate Fight Challenge , anybody wanna game?" yelled Cyborg all over the tower as he looked for an opponent. He stopped outside Beast Boy's room and chuckled evilly.

"Yo grass stain you me game station now!" he ordered as he pushed the door open and leapt into Beast Boy's room. He was surprised to find that the room looked tidied, there where no clothes thrown all over the place.

"BB you in here?" asked Cyborg as he walked over to Beast Boy's bed. He stopped at the bed and saw a small piece of paper that lying on the pillow, pinned underneath a Titan communicator.

"What in the…?" he asked as he moved the communicator and picked up the note.

Dear who ever finds this,

Ok I'm no good at this type of thing so I'll just come out and say it. I can't live here anymore, this place isn't the same without Robin and Raven. So because of that I've decided to leave, I don't want any of you to worry about me I'll be ok and please don't come looking for me. I guess this is it huh? I'll never forget being a Titan, good bye guys

Love always

Mark

PS: What do call a polar bear in the desert? Lost and alone

Cyborg dropped the note and fell back onto Beast Boy's bed.

"Not him too" he wept as he lay on the bed and buried his huge face in the small green pillow.

"The tower seemed just that little bit bigger when he left, so I moved out and got myself an apartment in the city. It's not much but it's home" coughed Cyborg as he wiped his tears away and looked back down at the graves.

"Now as for Starfire she changed her name, appearance and moved into the city with her sister. I think she runs a boarding house for lost and abandoned kids now" he said as he tried to remember where the house was, "Anyway I sometimes see her taking her kids for walks through the city. She doesn't look like the same alien girl we all knew, but you can still tell it's her" he smiled as he remembered Starfire's face smiling at him. He was about to say something else until a female voice was heard over his walkie talkie.

"Unit three possible arson attack at thirty second street over" crackled a females from the small black box attached to his belt.

"Dam Devil's Night begins again" he hissed as he reached for his police radio, "This is Unit three I'm on my way " replied Cyborg as he pressed a button on the radio and held it close to his face.

"Understood unit three" crackled the voice before the radio went dead.

"Sorry guy's but duty calls" smiled Cyborg as he put his hat back on and smiled at the graves, "See you later dark girl. see you later bro" he said before he left the cemetery and jumped into his squard car. As he disappeared into the city the rain started to fall heavily as the storm clouds settled above the city.

Silence over took the cemetery until the crow landed on top of one of the head stones and squawked loudly. It stopped suddenly as it started pecking the top of the head stone with it's black beak. It continued it's pecking until a bolt of lightning struck the ground in front of the head stone. Immediately, the earth began to shift. It rolled, as if someone was trying to dig their way out from beneath it's muddy surface. Suddenly the earth was thrown back as the lid of the casket was pushed open and a young man dressed in black burial clothes pulled itself out of the grave. The man crawled a few feet away from the grave and collapsed onto the muddy ground. He screamed an inhuman scream of agony as it lay sprawled out on the floor, the rain continued to fall onto the ground. It turned over revealing a set of beautiful pale blue eyes, eyes that where wild with confusion. He tried to stand but his legs felt like jelly, he managed to take a few steps towards a nearby tree and draped himself on one of it's branches. He looked around him to see where he was and watched in both fear and awe as the black crow flew directly towards him. He raised his hands in an attempt to shield his face from the flying bird but watched as it flew past him and landed on the branch bedside him.

"I suppose I have you to thank for this?" coughed Robin as he watched the bird look up at him. The crow just squawked again before it took off down what looked like an alleyway. Robin smiled as he staggered after the mysterious black bird.
