I've been busy lately so this will be the first time I've updated in a while, sorry peeps. I can't believe I just said that… Thanks for the review dlsky, sorry for not reviewing your last two chapters, I've been busy, they rocked. Ha-ha, Slade hangman. Where do I come up with this stuff? Thought it might add a little bit more of a cheerful tone to an otherwise unbearably depressing story. We've been in the middle of a move too, so, yeah.

BB-Beast boy groaned and rolled over. Where was he and how come where he was didn't smell like tofu? Raven and Starfire… suddenly, with a sinking feeling, did he remember the last days events. Raven had literally brushed him off, she broke up the whole team by walking away like that, into the dark where he couldn't see her, and he couldn't see anything.
Starfire had gone careening after her with a confused look on her face. He was too shocked to even move. I couldn't have caught them though; Raven had always been faster than him, and Starfire was faster than both of them.
What had happened after that, did he go and fall asleep on the couch. Beastboy opened his eyes, and stared around in total shock at a huge room filled with turning gears. A small light filtered through a broken window, which even though, caked with mud, was still translucent. A lone figure sat on a metal chair, amidst the turning gears, tapping their metal clad finger on the armrest, not impatiently, but as if he had all the time in the world. If you looked hard enough, you could see a person on a gear in the rafters, spinning slowly with the constant turning, the person seemed to be reading a book, or working on something.
They had hair like a raven and seemed to blend into the seeming dark and depressing landscape, there was something familiar about them. The only sound that could be heard was a steady puff of smoke that emitted from every crack in the plaster walls. Beast boy groaned, was he in jail or something, the next sound quickly squashed that idea. "Glad to see you've awakened."
Beast Boy's eyes widened, he knew that voice. It sounded like Slade, and if Slade were here, then this must be his hideout, and that meant… Beast boy looked back up. The person on the gear was now looking down at him. It was Robin. "Dude…"
ST- Starfire looked around the room in utter confusion. This was, in earthly language, 'quite confusing.' The little room was filled, but it only had two people, all huddling under a single light bulb, staring intently at something while mumbling unendingly. Raven cleared her throat and they both looked up.
"You're back already?" The girl with red hair had a look of confusion on her face, but not the look that Starfire often had, more of a knowing look of contemplation, instead of completely clueless. The red-haired boy looked much like Robin, he even wore a mask like him, and the only difference was that he had flaming red hair that stuck up in spikes, which appeared to be exactly the same shade and texture as Starfire's.
"Starfire, meet Batgirl and Speedy, they're some of my friends from Gotham." The red haired girl frowned, "Robin's friends. Or at least I am." Batgirl pointed at Speedy, "He's just a runaway from who knows where. He won't tell me." 'Speedy', as Raven called him, grinned sheepishly, turning his head back down to his work. "He doesn't talk much, we met on the road and I agreed to let him come." Starfire beamed, this was her first new friend since beast boy. Starfire caught batgirl in a hug/death grip. "Friend Batgirl! I am so glad to be making your acquaintance!" After about five seconds, Starfire let go, leaving Barbara gasping for air. "Does she do that with everyone?" Raven smiled slightly. Speedy, clearly noticing he was being ignored, cleared his throat, imitating Raven. "You know, I hate to break up the party, but shouldn't we be doing something?"
"Oh, yeah." Starfire suddenly remembered the abandoned beast boy. "You have still not explained to me why we left beast boy in the lot of parking by himself." Raven blinked. "We'll call him in a minute." She said flatly.
"Why have we not included friend beast boy in our scheming of plots? Is he not a titan?"
RA-"Beast boy can't keep a secret to save his life. We'll get him over here when secrecy is no longer critical to our plan." Starfire's eyes glowed green angrily. "CAN we at least call him to see if he is alright? It seems you do not care much about his welfare." The happy atmosphere in the room seemed to fade into awkward silence. "Fine." Raven picked up the phone and dialed the number to titans' tower. It rang for several seconds before the answering machine finally picked up. There was laughter in the background. Cyborg's voice came on. "Hey dude, we, ha-ha, we can't come to the phone right now... SILKIE DON'T EAT THAT! Sorry. The phone beeped. Raven frowned. Something wasn't right, but she couldn't pick up on it. She looked at Starfire, the hopeful expression affixed in her face. She couldn't handle it if she knew another titan was missing, she'd go completely over the edge. "Yeah, beast boy, we're fine." Raven listened to the dial tone for a few seconds, and then hung up. "He says he's fine." There was silence for several minutes until Speedy spoke. "Hey Raven, shouldn't we tell Starfire how, you know, we're gonna beat Slade?"

Hahaha, tension arises. This is the first chapter that has not featured Robin. Am I writing Batgirl's character right? When the opportunity arose, I read a fic featuring Batgirl; I've never seen The Batman. I don't get the WB, or any cable channel. I barely get to watch teen titans as it is… so anyways… please review.
ATTENTION ATTENTION!
I finally got to see the End parts one two and three. They rocked! Not as good as first season finale though. Have you heard that SLADE'S SON JERICHO WILSON'S GONNA BE IN SEASON FIVE! EEEPPPP! YAYY! THAT MEANS COOL SLADE, NOT SLADE TRIGON'S LAPDOG IS BACK! WOOHOO! It's featuring beast boy as the main character and he has to save the doom patrol. I have also noticed that there are not any shows featuring Cyborg yet, which is good. I don't really like him that much as a main character. It's confirmed. TERRA'S COMING BACK! WOOHOO! Well, it said she was coming back in an interesting king of way... I think she'll be evil. She and Robin are so much cooler when they are evil, it makes me sad that Robin has not done anything remotely bad since season one. Review or I shall be sad.
