Declarer-I don't own Teen Titans
A/N there will be lots of flashbacks her, they will be in italics, they come of the shows, not from them.
Cyborg drove without truly knowing that he was driving, he knew where to go, and how to get there, but his mind wasn't on that. Not that he could be blamed, his two beast friends were shot, he knew the Beast Boy would be fine. Raven could handle bullet wounds, she had before, but nothing like this. Nothing against Beast Boy, he was like a younger brother, but Robin was more of an older brother. He hatted to admit it but that's what he thought of the masked teen, even though he, Cyborg was the oldest. He looked up to Robin, his never give up attitude, his helpfulness, his courage. He had this thing too, but Robin was more then just combat and fight till the end, it was his nature. Robin could one minute be training at the hardest move conceived by man, the next sitting around the couch laugh at three stooges.
"Come on you two it's almost staring," called Beast Boy from the couch
"move it chowder head," said Cyborg to Robin,
"oh yea, you see that," Robin held out his fist, Cyborg hit it, Robin's arm spun around and hit him in the head, "woo, woo, woo, woo,"
"nuk, nuk nuk," they both laughed and joined their green friend on the couch.
But it wasn't just that, all the time Robin had influenced him, forgiveness, never give up, fight for everything.
I still got the boom if you got the sonic.
I wouldn't let you give up, yes you can.
I did what I did because I though I could catch Slade, but I was wrong.
"Who ever they are they're no match for the Teen Titans," "how right you are Cy, how right you are."
But I wasn't I was wrong, someone can match us, someone can destroy us, someone can break us apart. That someone we all must face, death, but not Robin, not now, the team would die without him, he would die with out him. Cyborg found that he was at Titan's Tower, he slowly got out and made his way toward his room. Then he thought of something and changed course and headed toward the communication room.
Though Beast Boy was riding on Raven, and though they had much to talk about, nether one was speaking. Both were thinking about their masked leader, though they though about him in different ways.
To Beast Boy he was that good respectable older brother that was too be looked up to, respected and gone to for advice. He also thought as Cyborg as a brother, but more of one that you could have fun with, the brother that let you win a games just to see your victory dance. Robin, however was a voice of reason in his mind, anytime he thought of doing something stupid he always heard Robin's voice.
"You shouldn't do that," "that's not a good idea," "this is something you should do,"
Although from time to time he hated the voice, namely cause it was usually right, but every once and awhile, he loved having it. But it wasn't that he was a kind of continues for him, he was a guide, an example. In truth he wanted to be like Robin, that respectful leader, Beast Boy was neither of those. He didn't like people keeping secrets, even though he had some himself, he snooped. He also was a follower, he would follow anyone anywhere, but he wanted someone to follow him for a change. He knew that Robin would never hear of it, or the team agree, so he's always kept it a dream.
"Nice work team," "Titans GO!" "Let's take him down,"
are you sure you'll be alright?
Go apologize to Raven, what the worst she could do?
Dang BB you're defiantly getting better,
I know she meant a lot to you, but she needs to be taking down,
it's alright, she meant a lot to us as well, well find a way to bring her back
That's how he always was, logical, smart, the leader, and courage beyond anything, Beast Boy wanted that. Though he tried he never could, now it might be to late, he could never be like Robin, if he was gone.
He was so similar to her, yet, didn't carry the same pain, she had seen into his mind, he knew more of his past and feeling then any other on the team. She saw what happened to him, to his family, through his life, yet he never despaired. Not like her, she knew that most of it was due to her emotions, but a part of that was her own past. But he, he came out of that dispar to be the dark night's partner, he became a son. Then he formed the Teen Titans, true she had been a big part of that, but she was an outsider. They both had pasts, but Robin had confronted his past and got through it, that's something she could never do. Namely it would be far too painful and it would cause millions in property damage. But she always knew there was something special about he, not just his never give up go all the way attitude. It was his love, he's friendship for his team was stronger then anything she had seen. He would do anything and everything for his friends, even join with someone he hatted.
I'm sorry for putting you through all the grief of thinking I was a bad guy.
What I did I did because I didn't want anyone else to run the risk of getting hurt.
Now, we will be friends forever, as long as you stick together.
You know, I'll always be your friend, through thick and thin, good are bad, up and down.
He was always like that, that's what maid him their leader, he puts his team before even his own ethics and health. And in one moment that powerful leader could be gone, just like that, she didn't think the team would make it. True they managed when he was a criminal, but that was because they had a duty to the city. With out him, she knew the team would not survive, when Starfire told them of her trip. All that was caused by just her vanishing, Raven didn't want to even think what would happen if Robin did the same.
Starfire sat in the cold plastic chair, waiting and thinking, she was waiting for her friend and was thinking about Robin. She loved him, there was no way around it the person she cared about more then anything was hanging by a thread. And it was all her fault, she may not have fired the bullets, but he pushed her down. She probably would be up and around in a few minutes, but he might die, all because of her. He was everything to her, she didn't think that she could go on knowing that he wouldn't be there. If he was alive then she knew she could see him, talk it him, but if he wasn't. She shuddered, not wanting to think like that, she needed to do something, but there was nothing she could do. She had done enough she should have stayed by Raven, then she never would have been near Robin. Her memories spun, him and her on the roof talking, on the fairies wheel, dancing, hugging. With each passing memory she grew deeper and deeper in her grief, her mind became cloudy.
There was a steady bet of a heart while several doctors and nurses tried to patch up the small man on the gurney. It was almost silent between then, except for the commands and comments, none realized that four unsteady teen's minds were focused almost completely on this young man.
A/N slightly shorter then normal, but lots of emotions, well till next R&R
