Chapter 8 – Plans to Start Over

Beast Boy yawned and stretched as he entered the kitchen.

"Morning, Rae," he said as he saw his girlfriend reading The Gotham Times and drinking herbal tea at the table. She looked up at him.

"Hey."

"Starfire still in her room?"

"She hasn't come out yet. And I think it will be a while longer. It'll take time. I'm not sure if she'll ever really heal."

"I just don't get what came over him," Beast Boy said, walking over to Raven and putting his thin arms around her small shoulders. "I know he loved her the way I love you, and I'd could never, ever give you up. I'd rather die." Raven looked up into the green changeling's face and smiled. She had gotten lucky, a secretive, dark girl like her, to end up with someone who really loved her for who she was. She reached up and pulled his face towards hers for a kiss, but they quickly separated when they heard Cyborg's metal feet coming to the kitchen.

"Morning y'all," he said. "Star still in her room?" Raven nodded solemnly.

"Any update on Robin?" she asked.

"None. His locator's still offline and I contacted a couple of people like Speedy and Aqualad but they haven't seen or heard from him. Let's face it, he's not coming back. At least, he better not. He'd have to be pretty stupid to dare to show his face after what he did to Star, and to the rest of us." Cyborg looked at Raven's newspaper. "Hey, is that Bruce Wayne on the cover?" They all looked, and it was, along with a black haired and blue eyed teenage boy. The title read "Bruce Wayne's Adopted Son Returns Home".

"After a strange and unexplained disappearance from the home of rich businessman Bruce Wayne of Wayne Enterprises, Richard Grayson mysteriously shows up at the door of Wayne Manor. When asked to comment, Wayne and Grayson both declined. Wayne adopted Grayson during his early childhood, shortly after he was orphaned when both his parents died. It goes on, but it seems pretty boring." Raven folded up the newspaper and put it down.

"You know, that makes me think about how we had a partnership with Bruce. He asked us to keep in touch with him, but we never did. Of course, we never did get around to tracking down Terra and Terran because Robin took off. And he had the telecom with him, and I highly doubt that Robin used it just to tell Bruce that we failed because of his arrogance. I feel like maybe we owe the guy an explanation or something. Should we go see him?" Beast Boy and Raven thought about Cyborg's proposition.

"It might be good to get Starfire out of the house," Raven said. Beast Boy nodded.

"Let's do it. And, hey, last time Cy checked, the terrible twins were in Jump City. Maybe they're still here and we can still kick their butts. I mean, just because Robin isn't here, doesn't mean we're still not the Teen Titans who kick evil's butt, right?"

"Right," Raven and Cyborg agreed.

"Awesome. Should we go tomorrow? Because, I hate to admit it, I'm eager to move on and forget about Robin. It still, you know, stings a little bit."

Cyborg sighed. "Yeah. It does. I can't imagine how it is for Starfire. Poor girl." He paused, looking a bit fearful to say what he wanted to say next.

"What?" Raven asked, noticing his expression.

"Umm....can it not be tomorrow? Because I have another date with Riana, and I'd hate to blow her off, because she's so cool...."

"CYBORG."

"But...."

"No. Starfire needs to get out of this place as soon as possible."

"Bros before hos, dude," Beast Boy said. Raven and Cyborg stared at him in disbelief.

"First off, Riana is not a ho. Second, Starfire is not a bro. You just should not talk, man. It just ain't right." Cyborg shook his head. "You're not right."

"Shut up. So how do we get Star out of her room?" Beast Boy asked.

"Oh, don't worry," Cyborg said, suddenly smiling. "We'll think of a way."

"Put me down now please!" Starfire shrieked as Cyborg threw her over his shoulder and began to carry her out of her room.

"Well, that's one way to do it," Raven commented as he proceeded to carry her out to the T Car. Beast Boy smiled proudly as Cyborg opened the passenger door, threw Star in, buckled the seat belt over her, closed the door and walked back to them without once saying 'hey baby' to the T Car. Riana was doing Cy a world of good.

"Ready to go?" he asked Raven and Beast Boy.

"What are we going to say?" BB asked. "Do we just go up and be like, 'Hi, our leader, Robin, threw a temper tantrum and ran away so we didn't actually find Terra and Terran, sorry.'? I mean, that's stupid."

"Yeah, it is, but the guy deserves some sort of explanation for why we just ran off and never came back. It's been, what, a week?"

"Almost," Raven said. "Tomorrow will be a week. But we can also tell Bruce that we're planning to take the twins down anyway. Can we just get this over with? The sooner we talk to him, the sooner we can take down Terra and Terran, and the sooner that we can just try to get on with our lives. Without...." Raven glanced over toward Starfire. "....You-Know-Who." Though the door was shut, Star heard what Raven said, and tears formed in her green eyes again. How could her friends be talking of such a thing?

Was a life without Robin possible?

Never.

Another chapter finished, I know that Terra and Terran haven't made an appearance yet and that's weird because this story is supposed to be about them, but don't worry, they're coming, and it will be a showdown like no other. Hooray!

So, who saw the new episode? Not bad, not bad. I like Bumblebee, she's very kick ass. And from now own I won't have to go around making up a girl for Cyborg. There is definitely something going on there.

Sneak Peak: The Titans visit Bruce Wayne and Raven makes a connection.
