Everything's the same as before. I don't own this, I do own the storyline, blah-de, blah-de, blah. Their names however will be changed, (e.g. 'Cyborg said' will be 'Victor said' or 'Starfire laughed' will be 'Kory laughed'.) except (here's where it gets complex) when they're in uniform.
Chapter four
"Cy, do you just carry that ring around with you now?" Logan asked.
"Yeah, why?" Victor asked, suspiciously.
"Alright, Victor, I trust you know how to drive." Batman said tossing him a set of keys.
"Alright!" Victor cheered.
"Logan, I trust you can drive too?" Batman tossed him a set of keys. "Raven--"
"I can get myself there." Raven retorted, coolly.
"Man-Bat, sir, how are Robin and I to get to the school of high?" Kory asked.
"I can answer that one." Richard said coming into the living room.
"Robin?" Kory questioned, shocked.
He had on thick black glasses that had tape holding the nose piece together. He had on jeans and a shirt that said "GHS Band"
"Star, you're going to be shallow and go with Cyborg, just because his car's cool or even shallower because he's a football player and you're a cheerleader." Richard explained.
"And what about you four eyes?" Logan joked.
Victor and Logan laughed.
"I have to go catch the bus." Richard muttered. He picked up his trumpet case and left.
Richard waited only a few minutes before the school bus pulled up in front of the bus stop. The doors opened and he got on.
He looked around for an empty seat. He found one. In the front.
He stared out the window vacantly as the bus continued on its route.
"Is this seat taken?" A girl asked him. He looked at her and found himself looking at Keioke Mathews, suspect number two.
Richard stared at her, his mouth slightly opened.
"If it is that's no problem. I'll just--" Keioke started.
"No! It's fine. Here sit." He moved his case out of the seat.
"Thanks. Are you new?" She asked smiling.
"Sort of, I'm Dick… Richard, but …" He said, searching for the words to say.
"Has anyone ever told you look a lot like Robin?"
"No, I don't." He was defensive. "I mean, no one has. I don't think I do."
"Well you do. See?" She took out a sketch pad and drew him, rapidly. "This is you and this," She flipped to an earlier sketch, "Is Robin. See what I mean? The only difference is your lack of confidence."
"Yeah, I guess I see it." Richard said, unexcitedly.
"Hey, I don't know what your problem is, but being compared with a superhero is nothing to be offended about." Keioke told him, pointedly
The bus pulled to a stop in front of the school.
"See you around." She said, and got off.
Richard followed her.
"Well, well if it's not little Dick Grayson"
"Shut up, Moose. I just got here. Can't you cut me break, at least today?" Richard asked, glaring at him.
"Come on, dude. What do you have against Richard?" Victor asked, coming up behind them with Kory.
"You know Dick?" Moose asked Victor.
"Umm…" Victor hesitated.
"We went to school together. Apparently we were in the same transfer program." Richard explained.
"Dick, I've got a report due Monday. And you're going to do it, for me." Moose ordered. "Same way as always, not many big words--"
"With horrible grammar and spelling?" Richard put in.
"Yup. I want it Tuesday." Moose ordered.
The school bell rang.
"Catch you at practice, Vic!" Moose called as he left. Kory waited at the door quietly.
"How does my suspect know you? And second why's he having you do his work? Can't he get someone who actually goes here to do it?" Victor asked, angry.
"First, he's not your suspect! And second, this was my school before you even joined the team!" Richard yelled.
Some of the passing crowed stopped and gave them odd looks.
"Great! We should do great that duet scene! And they said that we couldn't do that as a duet!" Victor said, loudly.
"We're ready!" Richard said following Victor's lead.
"Yeah, we'll show them." Richard said. They went their separate ways.
'Man, I've got to be more careful.' Richard thought.
Robin grew impatient as the rest of the Titans were led down to the Bat cave.
"What's your problem 'Dick'? You've only been down here--what?--five minutes." Cyborg started, still angry at him.
"I've, he's been here a lot longer than that." Robin replied.
"Moose Larson died today. This is the location of the crime scene. We need to get down there, and fast." Batman explained he pulled up a small map on the bat computer. Batman seemed impressed.
"Leave it to me." Raven's astral form said.
"Raven, are you sure? You've never taken this many people before." Robin cautioned.
"I know, Robin, but trust me. I can do it." She assured him before engulfing the Titans in her dark astral form and whisking them away leaving Batman behind.
