CHAPTER 2...
Robin walked back to his house and in the door.
"Hey Mom." Robin's mom was in the kitchen making lunch.
"Hey Robin."
"What's for lunch? I'm starved."
"We are going to just have sandwiches." His mom was taking out the peanut butter and jelly.
"Uhh...I am going to go call Cy and BB. I will get my sandwich in a second."
"Ok then."
Robin climbed the stairs and went into his bedroom. He took out his phone and called up Cy.
"Hey Cy, what's up?"
"Nuthin' much man."
"Hey, are you busy right now?"
"No, why?"
"You want to go to McDonalds for lunch? My Mom was making PB&J's for lunch."
"Sure, I'll meet you there."
"See you in a minute Cy."
"Ok, bye."
Robin hung up his phone. He walked down the stairs.
"Hey, Mom I'm gonna meet Cy at McDonalds."
"Ok but be back by 1:00."
"Sure thing."
McDonalds 11:45AM
Robin pushed open the door and walked in to see Cy sitting at a table with a pile of food in front of him.
"Hey! Over here!" Cy called out.
"Hey..." Robin replied examining the pile of food.
"It's only two quarter pounders, three large fries and two large cokes." Cy saw Robin eat one of the fries.
"Hey man get your own fries!" Cy exclaimed.
"You surprise me sometimes how you seem to hold all that food in you and never get fat."Robin said
"I'm a growing football player what can I say?" Cy said laughing.
"I think you stopped growing, your five foot eight!" Robin exclaimed.
"Well maybe I will be one of those seven foot guys." He said defending himself.
"Sure you are..."Robin said sarcastically.
"Hey Cy I am going to get my food." Robin said looking on the wall behind the registers.
"Ok." Cy said not paying attention. Robin walked up to the register and ordered.
"How may I help you?" A lanky teenage boy asked monotonously.
"Uhh, yeah I like to get an quarter punder, no cheese and a medium coke." Robin said looking back at Cy who was noisily chugging down his second coke.
The guy pushed a couple buttons on the computer.
"That'll be a dollar seventy-five."
Robin extracted a five-dollar bill from his wallet and handed it to the guy.
"Your change is three twenty-five."
Robin took the change. He stood there for a few minutes, and the guy handed him a trey.
"Come again." They guy said dully.
Robin walked over to sit across from Cy in the booth.
"Is that all you got?" Cyborg asked.
"Yeah. I don't eat like a pig." Robin replied.
Robin took his sandwich out of the little box it came in.
"I was really hungry." Robin said swallowing food.
Cy laughed, "and you think that is going to fill you up? I ate that much when I was two!" He laughed again.
"Yeah, yeah, whatever." Robin answered.
"Are you ready to go now?" Cy asked finishing his last fry.
"Yeah, I'll take my coke with me." Robin replied feeling rushed.
They put their trash up in the garbage can and left.
"Cy, what time is it?" Robin asked.
He looked down at his watch.
"It's 12:40."Cy replied.
"Oh. I don't have to be home until another fifteen minutes. What do you wanna do?" Robin asked while looking around the little town.
"I don't know." Cy replied thoughtlessly.
"Well then I am gonna just head home." Robin replied to Cy's mindless answer.
"Ok, man see ya later."
"See ya later." Robin replied yawning. 'Maybe it wasn't such as bad idea going to back to sleep...'
Monday morning 5:30AM
Beep! Beep! Beep!
SMACK
(Sound familiar?)
"Not again!" Robin yelled.
Robin went through his normal morning routine and headed for school. He was walking down the street and met Cy on the way, like usual.
"Hey Cy." Robin said as they met up with each other.
"Hey." He replied yawning. "I can't wait for P.E. today!"
"I can." Robin replied looking ready to fall asleep. "I don't like P.E."
"Why not? You do karate." Cy said confused.
"Yeah, but its different. Karate is fun."
They were just now walking up to the school building buzzing with talk and laughter.
"I'm gonna hurry up and get to Homeroom." Robin said not wishing to talk to anyone.
"Ok, I am going over there with the rest of the football team." He answered pointing to the group of guys in team jackets.
"Ok well see ya later."
Later, Robin was running through the back hallways to P.E. as to avoid the crowd. He entered Gym through the back doors. Then walked across the court to the Boy's Locker room. He heard someone was already here...
A big guy and a group of three others had a little shrimpy dude pinned against the wall.
"Alright you little freak, cough up the money!" The big guy said, as he pushed the scrawny dude against the wall harder.
"I don't have any money!" The little guy cried out.
Robin just noticed, it was BB!
"Let him go..."Robin said stepping around the corner.
"What if I don't little man?" The guy replied angrily.
"I'll have to kick your butt." Robin replies getting ready to use what he learned in karate.
"Oh really? Listen guys, he said he is going to kick my butt." The guy said mockingly, dropping BB.
"Are you sure your not going to just leave him alone?" Robin said furious.
"Oh no, I am very sure little man." He said putting his fist up.
"I'm a black belt. I can take you down one hit." Robin said warningly.
The big guy laughed. "Well? Bring it little man, I will deal with your friend later."
"If you want me to...,"Robin replied smiling.
Robin jumped on to the bench and plunged off, roundhouse kicking the guy in the jaw.
They guy yelped and crawled away crying, with a big bloody bruise on his face.
"Anyone else?" Robin said breathing hard.
They just stood there staring at him, eyes full with fear.
"Boo." Robin said calmly.
"AHHHHHHH!" The three screamed in unison and ran off.
"Are you ok, BB?" Robin asked helping him up.
"Wow, Robin, I never knew you could do that kind of thing...,"He said surprised.
"Well, I told Cy. But he never really believed I was a black belt."
"Oh! This is so cool!" BB exclaimed.
"You know you can't tell anyone, right?" Robin asked.
"Awwwww pleeeeease?" BB did a puppy dog face.
"NO! I don't want the whole school to know about me!"
"Ya, but the school dance is coming up, and I think any girl would want to dance with a kung-fu guy."
"I said no." Robin replied feeling annoyed. "Besides I am not even going to the dance."
"Suit yourself..."BB said looking like he was gonna miss the most fun event of the year.
"Let's get to P.E." Robin said ignoring BB's tone of voice.
