An Old Friend

It is a dark and rainy night. A motorcycle speeds by and on to a dark ally type street. It parks, and the rider gets off. He leaves his helmet on because of the rain. On the street there are two streetlights that blink periodically, the rider is Robin. In front of him is an old broken down warehouse.

Inside there is a girl. She is on an old mattress in a dark room with a single window with a large hole in it. Other than the mattress the drafty room is empty. She seams to be having a bad dream because she is tossing and turning.

(Dream)

In her dream it is all black and there are voices and the sound of a car engine starting.

"Victor! No!"

"You stay there!"

"No! Let me in!"

(Car starts and rushes off. A girl screams, there is a loud crash)

"Victor, Victor!"

(End dream)

The girl in the warehouse wakes up with a start, she is breathing heavily. She looks around and sighs. She starts to settle down when she hears something. She tenses up and looks around.

Robin takes out a piece of paper then looks at the warehouse, he looks around. Then he spots something on the roof. He looks closer.

"What is that?...hey where did ...?"

He felt a sharp pain on the back of has neck, then all went dark.

Robin slowly wakes up and with a really bad headache. He first opens his left then his right eye. Looking around he realizes that he is in the warehouse, that it is day time and...he is tightly tied to a chair. He struggles but it is no use, he is not going anywhere any time soon. He looked around the room, there was an old broken down staircase, a table nothing interesting, or anything that he could use to escape.

There is someone else in the room, but where?

"Let me go!" He yelled. "Whoever this is I can take him", he thought.

"No." Good so there was someone there, he was a little worried that he would be talking to himself, but someone had to have tied him up right?

"Show your self coward!" He pulled at the ropes, and tried to reach his belt, if only he could reach his Birdarang.

"Stop struggling" The voice seamed to come from everywhere where is he, "You are not going any where unless I want you to, so careful where you throw those insults. But if you want to see me then look in front of you." "Wow", he thought, "he is confident, or at least good at faking it."

"I.….hey where did you...you're a….a girl!"

"No...Duh."

A girl took him! Being tied to a chair was bad enough but the fact that a girl did it, all his pride just went down the drain. But this was no ordinary girl, she reminded him of someone, but who? She was about as tall as Raven, does she remind him of Raven, no he thought. Her hair was brown with red hi-lights that went to right above her shoulders, she had two long tendrils that went all the way down to her chest that were all red. But it was her eyes that really captured him, they were compassionate, but hard, and they were red, there was a light glow to them also. But not in a creepy sort of way they were soft. She was wearing a sleeveless green top with a V-neck that went down about as far as Stars shirt, and a pair of tight jeans that flared slightly covering her shoes. At the flare there where red flames stitched on. She had on black gloves that started right below her elbows. On the front of her hand there was a rectangular hole, also the fingers where cut off starting at the knuckle.

She was looking him straight in the eye without moving like she was looking for something in him, searching through his mind, well maybe she was a little like Rae. They stood there for few seconds without moving, although it felt like an eternity to Robin. He suddenly felt a wave of embarrassment and anger but he did not know why. It was all he could do to hold her gaze, but he finally looked away, but was compelled to look back up. Once again his masked eyes met her strong gaze. But they had changed, they where now cooler, as if they had been on fire, now they where a deep green with a thin strip of red around the jet black pupils. She was no longer as tense. Robin had always thought he was good at reading people, but her, he did not think that anyone could know what she was thinking. "Is she the one I'm looking for?" He thought. He was starting to feel a little silly for thinking that the voice belonged to a guy.

What is he doing here? She could not help but wonder about the spiky haired guy in front of her.

"Do you live here?" He said. Despite his ego being defused his mind flooded with questions about this girl.

"Maybe, why?" She tensed up again her eyes regaining their red glow, what does he want?

"Because my friend asked me to try to find a Lily, who supposedly lives around here. Is that you?"

"Who are you? Who sent you?" She said, very defensively.

"Names Robin, and my friend who sent me is Cyborg." She looked at him suspiciously.

Robin was trying to not think about the ropes, he felt them digging into his skin despite his gloves and selves. As hard as he tried to hide it, it was obvious that he was in pain from the tightness of the ropes.

The mysterious girl walked behind Robin and started to unfasten the knots. Robin was a little surprised by this, he expected some kind of sarcastic remark, anything but being let go, but he was not going to object, he felt like his wrists where bleeding.

"So he sent you did he?" She said laughingly.

"Yeah, know him? He said suddenly forgetting about the ropes. "Or why he would not come himself?" He said quietly to himself, she did not hear him. This was the question that had been on his mind since he had set off. Cy was not one to send others to do stuff like this for him. But Robin owed him one, so he did it no questions asked, well at least not to Cyborg.

The girl laughed, but it sounded farther away, like on the other side of the room. Could this day get any more confusing? He felt the ropes loosen and fall off. He looked behind him. She was gone!

"Hey, where did you go?" He looked around, she was nowhere to be found.

"Over here."

So she was on the other side of the room! Obviously it could get more confusing.

"But…you where over, how?"

"Hungry?" She said laughing again.

Robin suddenly realized that he had not eaten since he started off to find this girl three days ago and even more so when the smell of eggs and pancakes flooded his nose.

"Sure, um...thanks."

"First I get tied up then she feeds me? This does not make any sense." He thought.

He slowly walked over trying to keep his cool composure in spite of his growling stomach, which was not an easy task for the young hero. In front of him was a small fold out table with one chair. He wondered if he should go and grab the other chair, but the thought vanished from his mind when the girl put a steaming plate of pancakes and eggs on the table in front of him. Forgetting that there was no chair for him he started to sit, only when it was too late did he realize. Then he hit the ground, is the ground soft? No, that is a chair.

"But..." Chair, floor? His head was starting to hurt like Beast Boy's does when he gets confused. That is a scary thought.

"Just eat." She said. He did not need to be told again.

"Wow this is really good, um...can I ask you a question?"

"Sure."

"Why did you..." She cut him off.

"Tie you up."

"Yeah."

"I don't trust you." She said this as if it was obvious, without looking up from her plate.

"Then, why did you let me go?" He was hoping that she would not answer him with the same tone. It was starting to get on his nerves. "What did I ever do to her? He thought.

"Because Cyborg is your friend." She started to push her eggs around her plate nervously.

"So you do know him. How?" All of his question rushed back into his head.

"Old friend." "What kind of answer was that, she obviously does not like to talk." He thought.

After finishing she got up and put her plate in an old bucket filled with dirty water. Robin looked around and realized what a dump this place really was. How could she live here?

"So your name is Lily?"

"You did not get the wrong warehouse." Lily said. "What does he want?" She thought to her self. "It has been five years, and he looks for me now? And sends him?" Just like Robin she was full of questions, no don't let him know that.

"So Lily, why do you live here?"

"Its just a place to crash, why?" She sat back down and watched Robin eat, hoping he would stop asking questions. "But" she thought to herself "it is nice to have someone to talk to again, just don't get to use to it. Never, never again." She felt hot tears trying to push through at this thought, but she held them back.

"No offence, but it is...um"

"A dump?"

"Yeah." He felt bad for saying that, he saw that she was embarrassed, no matter how much she tried to hide it. She shrugged and walked to a wall close to the table. She leaned against it with her arms crossed, and one leg slightly bent supporting most of her weight, eyes down. Her usual stance.

She did not need anyone to tell her that this place was a dump. She sometimes wondered why she was still here herself. She was starting to feel bad for tying him up, she knew he was a part of the Teen Titans, sometimes she wished she could trust people more.
