Chapter 5
Disclaimer: If I owned TT Slade would be super dead.
Beast Boy slowly woke up and glanced at his clock. It said 6:34.
"Ugh how long have I been sleeping?" Beast Boy thought aloud. He jumped down from his bunk and strayed out of his room. He yawned and scratched his head while walking slowly down the hall. He finally reached the common room where the other titans were looking worried.
"Dudes, what happened?" Beast Boy said, trying to lighten the mood by using the word 'Dudes'. Starfire was crying into Robins shoulder. Robin was looking solemnly at the ground. He looked so sad. They had never seen him that way. Cyborg was sitting with his head down. "It can't be that bad." Beast Boy said, hopefully.
"She's gone, B." Cyborg said, not looking up. The silence was more painful to Beast Boy then anything he'd experienced before. It cut threw him like a knife.
"She's gone…" Beast Boy echoed, trying so hard to understand what was happening. He sat on the nearest chair and started to cry. It was so quiet. It should be. She wasn't here. Beast boy cried for a long time. He wanted to scream and yell anything to make the pain go away. "She can't be gone…" Beast Boy said, clenching his fists.
"BB." Cyborg said, sorrowfully. Robin looked up and gently pushed Starfire away.
"Beast Boy, I need you to tell me what happened." Robin said, almost like an older brother.
"I can't."
"You have to. It might be the only way we could find Raven."
"Robin, no one here wants to find her more than I do."
"Then why won't you tell me?"
"BECAUSE I CAN'T!" There was silence. "I'm going out to find her." Beast Boy said and slowly began to walk towards the door. Starfire had stopped crying.
"Friend, we are going with you."
"Yeah, we're a team. Now let's go find her." Robin said. Cyborg put a heavy metal hand on Beast Boy's shoulder.
"Yeah B. We ain't letting you go out to find her on your own." Cyborg said, comfortingly.
"Thanks you guys." Beast Boy sighed.
Meanwhile…
Why did he do this to me? I could have stayed. I could have lived happily for a while longer… He stole from me. I HATE HIM! Raven thought, as she floated silently along the roof tops. She found her thoughts drifting Beast Boy. She though she saw only hatred for him, but there was a longing there as well. A longing that she had long since thrown to the winds. I'll kill him… but I'll need help. That was when she finally knew where she was going.
