This begins right after Terra defeating Slade, but after Deception.
"All right titans listen up!" Robin called as the other titans entered the briefing room. "We got a call from the local zoo stating some animals got loose this morning and they need help rounding them up." He pressed a button and a screen with a local map appeared.
"Oh come' on man!" Cy complained. "There just stupid animals! What do they need our help for?" BeastBoy gave Cy a dirty look, what did he know anyways. Robin rolled his eyes went turned back to the screen.
"Anyways, we'll be separating into groups. Raven, Cy you head to the west side of the park and deal with the larger of the animals like elephants and rhinos. Star you'll be coming with me to deal with the large predators. And BeastBoy, you will be rounding up any birds that escaped, understood?" The team nodded there heads and headed to the door. Cy was the last one out and seemed to be really tired. As everyone rushed ahead Robin held back to check on his robot friend.
"You ok?" He asked coming beside him.
"You try and sleep when BB's room is right next to yours. He left Mega Monkeys 3 on last night and the music was playing over and over again! It kept me up all night! I'll be fine though."
Robin nodded and looked ahead, then Cyborg brought up a very personal topic (to Robin that is)
"So…" He said slowly. "When are you and Star going to go ou…" He didn't get to finish, Robin had shoot him a nasty glance that had silenced Cy. Robin continued on but Cy stood for a few minutes.
"Come' on man I know you like her, I'm not blind. Go and tell her how you fee…" Once again Robin stopped him but not with a glance.
"Can it." He said sternly as they arrived in the garage. Star and Raven had apparently flown ahead because BeastBoy was the only on in the garage. He was looking the one of the T-cars mirrors and seemed to be looking for anything that would make him ugly. He shot up and smiled innocently at the other two titans who had walked in. Robin who looked seriously ticked, walked over to his motorcycle, slammed on his helmet and roared off down the road towards the zoo.
"What's his problem?" BB asked as he climbed into the passenger front seat.
"Nothing to big, poor little Robby is just having girl problems." Cyborg said grinning evilly. BB knew exactly what that meant…
When the titans arrived at the zoo they found it in complete chaos, the last of the zoo keepers where running out of the main entrance gates red faced and completely terrified. They informed Robin where all the different types of animals where located and where their cages where. They split up into there teams, Raven and Cyborg heading to the east side of the zoo, BeastBoy to the west and He and Star headed for the middle. Cy and BB both where able to give him mischievous grins and a few thumbs up before they lost site of him. Robin ignored him and headed onward, it would be a long morning.
"Titans, report!" Robin shouted into his communicator. "We're done here robin." Raven said appearing on screen behind the elephant cage. "Same here." BB said looking tired. "Did you know they had so many birds here!"
"That took quicker than I thought." Robin said closing the communicator and silencing BB. He turned to Star who was putting the last of the lion cubs back into their enclosure. "Looks like we're done." He said as she landed. " Let's head back to the tower." She nodded happily and began to follow him, but saw something out of of the corner of her eye and stopped. Did she miss one of the lion cubs?
"Starfire? What's wrong?" Robin asked coming to stand beside her.
"I thought I saw another creature." She said. "But it must have been a mirage of which BeastBoy spoke of while at the beach last weekend, yes?" She said smiling happily. Robin looked around for awhile then decided she was right and continued on.
The rest of the team all met up at the entrance gates later that day. "Great job everyone." Robin complimented ignoreing another gesture from BB. "Now how about we…" His sentence was cut short by a roar from behind him. The team whirled around to see a lone black panther staring at them. "How could have we missed one?" Starfire wondered aloud as Robin whipped out his Bo-staff. "No matter, its just one." He muttered.
BeastBoy ran from behind him and turned into a Black Panther as well, although his panther was green rather black. 'I'll handle it, the birds weren't much of a challenge' He thought. He roared and pounced but the panther easily dodged it. 'Strange' he thought, 'panthers don't usually dodge attacks. They just keep attacking back.' This Panther however leaped over him and dashed towards the gates. Star gasped and readied a star-bolt, the panther pounced…. And Beastboy attacked back. Knocking the cat away from Star.
It landed a few feet away and didn't move. "Alright BB!" Cy cheered as the changeling returned to normal and Robin and Raven rushed over. BeastBoy walked carefully over to the cat, to assure it wasn't hurt. He stood over it awhile until the rest of the team came over.
"Why does it not move?" Star questioned worried. BB crouched down next to it and as he did the cat jumped. Turning from cat to human and punching him in the jaw. He flew a few feet away and was ok. The rest of the team however was in shock out who stood before them….
Hope you guys enjoyed this re-write, the other one was just too plain boring and way too short. This version is much better.
