Chapter 2: Shifting Boundaries
The next day, Midnight was nowhere to be found. Just as the Titans were about to go and search for her, the alarm sounded, signaling crime in the city.
"We'll look for her later," Robin said. "Titans, go!"
As they arrived at the bridge, the scene of the crime, they heard a loud screech in the air. Cyborg looked up to spot a silver pterodactyl attacking a man on top of the bridge, who was shooting the dinosaur with a ray gun.
"Guys, it's Midnight!" Cyborg shouted, pointing up to the dinosaur.
"We have to help her!" Starfire shouted back. Robin held her back.
"Let's see how she does on her own," he said. Midnight spiraled downward to avoid another shot but soared upwards soon after, snatching the man in her talons. She swiftly turned around and spotted the Titans below her. She soared down towards the ground, stopping in front of Robin and hovering there.
"The jail is three blocks to your left," Robin said. "Nice skywork up there." The prehistoric beast nodded and flew into the left direction. Robin watched her fly off before turning to the rest of his team. "So, what do you guys think?"
"I like her," Cyborg said. Starfire nodded in agreement. Beast Boy and Raven didn't answer but Robin waited patiently. Finally, Raven spoke up.
"Ok, I think we can all admit that she has talent, but it's still impossible to tell who's side she's on," Raven pointed out. Robin nodded in agreement and turned to Beast Boy. He still remained silent.
"Do you have an opinion?" Robin asked. Beast Boy shook his head and shifted into a green eagle, flying off in the same direction as Midnight. The Ttians watched him fly off.
"Beast Boy...he is ok?" Starfire asked with concern.
"He'll be alright. I think the impression Terra left is still troubling him," Robin said. "That, and he may be a little jealous. He also may be afraid of the possibility that he could be replaced."
"Which will never happen..." Raven added. Cyborg consulted the tracker in his arm. He looked up at the rest of his team.
"He's headed for the jail," Cyborg announced. "He's going after Midnight..."
