I'd really like some reviews please. Thanks a bunch!
(Beast Boy's POV ends)
Robin and Starfire are piecing together a puzzle on the counter. Surely this took up room for someone to eat if they wished to, but they didn't mind. Cyborg was on the game station V as he was beating up some poor opponent somewhere else in Jump City. While Raven, poor Raven, who had just dealt with a painful experience, locked herself in the bedroom.
(Flashback; after Beast Boy left)
"Did he do anything to you?" Robin asked, a little worried. He was always worried about his friends, but Raven didn't like him butting in on someone's personal life. That was one of her least favorite qualities that he shared with, well, everyone.
"Robin, If he had really done something to me," Raven continued, "I don't think I would be talking to you right now. Now leave please, I must meditate." She had only half lied. She must, but she wasn't going to.
Robin, being the person he is, reluctantly gave up as he knew Raven always meditated after lots of things. Starfire was ok with her question and left the room gleefully back to her room.
Cyborg didn't ask any questions, but she couldn't help but see the frown on his face. He felt he caused it somehow. "You didn't." Raven blurted out. "Didn't what?" Cyborg asked, noticing that Robin had also left. "Nothing. . ." Raven sighed.
(end of Flashback)
Timid, Raven walked out of her room and down for some herbal tea and some breakfast. It was already the next morning, and quite early at that. Everyone, in their own ways, were worried for Beast Boy. He was out there alone somewhere.
Most of all, Raven was the one that was worried. She worried for him the most.
(Raven's POV)
I didn't do anything, did I? I didn't notice anything, should've I? I don't know what Beast Boy expects of me. Why would he want to impress me?
"You know what? I don't care anymore. I'm done trying to impress you!"
Those words scarred her the most out of their entire conversation that night. "Trying to impress me. . ." I stammered through my thoughts, trying to gather what he meant. When I figured it out, I let out a small gasp.
"He couldn't. . ." I said, bobbing my head all around, making sure no ones around. "This can't. . ?" I asked myself. He can't have meant he was in love. That's preposterous. Who could love a Goth? Someone who couldn't feel emotions?
Yet, that was the only conclusion I could draw. It didn't make any since. "He. . .loves me?" I asked myself. I'm-never-going to let myself.
(end of Raven's POV)
Raven entered the room, making Robin and Starfire look up at her. Cyborg let his enemy beat him when he looked up to Raven. Raven looked at them, all of them had hurt eyes in them, even Robin. They had hoped that Beast Boy had returned.
She shook her head, when they wouldn't stop staring at her. Nothing could stop him from leaving, and all of them wished they could. Finally, they returned to their entertainment.
When Starfire finally finished her puzzle, she looked at it. It was a picture of all of them. They had all made it together, themselves. Tears welled up in her eyes. She hugged Robin, crying into his shoulders. He patted her back, trying to calm her down.
Cyborg also cried, unable to resist. He couldn't take hearing Starfire like this. It was as if one of them had died.
Raven was the only one who didn't cry in the room. Even Robin, boy of wonder, shed two small tears, one from each of his eyes.
"This is pathetic. . ." Raven thought. She saw herself missing Beast Boy's jokes as the day passed by. None of the Titans felt like eating much that day.
Cyborg knocked on Raven's room. This was the last place he wanted to ask the question. When Raven came out, he was completely at a loss. He mumbled, "Do you. . .uh. . .Want to play a game?"
Like Raven, he too missed Beast Boy. Raven thought, "His circuit's must be frying". "Cyborg, don't you remember, I don't do fun." Raven replied. Cyborg wasn't really insisting that she play, but what could he do? Robin and Starfire had gone out already, and, therefore, he couldn't play with Robin.
"Then, do you want to go looking for Beast Boy," Cyborg asked, telling her the real reason he came to her door. She took attention to it for a little while before giving him an answer. "Ok. . ." Raven said, going back into her room to change.
With that, the door to Raven's room closed. Cyborg went back to his room to put on a jacket and a hat. This was all he had to do whenever he went out.
Raven came back with a black-t and blue short jean pants. She wore pink Nike shoes, but that was the only 'pink' you could see on her. She didn't like to reveal a certain secret of her liking pink.
Cyborg and Raven, an odd bunch for the crowd, walked through Jump City in search of Beast Boy. They had planned on him being in the arcade, but Cyborg had to go in alone. Raven didn't want to be caught in there.
To Cyborg's dismay, Beast Boy wasn't in there. Neither was he in any of the other usual places he would be at. He wasn't at the Pizza Palace, nor on the docks, or just, anywhere.
He and Raven began asking people, to see if that would help any. It shocked them when no one knew. They made it to the mall when they noticed their two of their friends crawl up from behind. "Hello friends Cyborg and Raven! What brings you to the mall at this hour?" Starfire asked.
"We're searching for Beast Boy," Raven said, sighing as she was frightened. "We can't take this pressure." Cyborg confessed. Raven wasn't scared for Beast Boy as Cyborg told them she did, was she? It would be really foolish for her to, but it can't be helped. Beast Boy was gone and he ran away because of something she did.
Raven, again was lost in her train of thought. She hoped she really didn't hurt him. It's not like she was falling for him, but the thought of him being hurt by her, was relinquishing her very soul.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Beast Boy was training hard, back at Slade's new layer. Beast Boy needed to beat them. He knew he was acting like the traitor Terra. He didn't care, like he didn't care about them when he left. He wanted his revenge. (remember?)
"Good. . ." Slade said, as he saw Beast Boy's fierce training showing he had every intention of killing them. "Good? Good is for those who thought love was real." Beast Boy coldly said. Slade could help but laugh to his joke, for it was no joke, but instead a threat to the Titans.
"I know their goody good act. They always using love and other things such as friendship to win their battles. Well I'll tell you something! Friendship is for losers." Slade nodded to his notion.
Beast Boy resumed his training, for in one week from today, he would kill them, all of them.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
No traces had come that Beast Boy was even alive anymore. They worried and worried, and continued to worry for a whole week.
Raven opened the fridge door to see that there was tofu. It reminded her of her little green changeling. Without his presence, she felt somewhat lonely.
(Raven's POV)
"He had to. . ." I thought, "He just had to bring it up, and leave us. He had to leave all of us. He had to leave me. . ."
I stood with the fridge door ajar. I didn't notice it was even opened until Robin took notice. "Uh. . .Raven? Why are you leaving the fridge door open?" Robin asked. "I. . .I don't know. . ." I said, snapping back to reality.
It's not like me, to continue to wonder where Beast Boy is. Normally, I could care less. I don't know why. Does anyone know? I can't bear it anymore. I must see him. Even if it is only one last time.
Suddenly the villain alert rang. It was loud, and very annoying. I floated down to the screen and stood beside all my friends, except for the missing green one.
"It's him. . ." Cyborg said, sounding grave. "That can't possibly-" Robin said desperately wanting it not to be true. "Sorry Rob, but he's robbing a bank downtown!" Robin took a glance at it before calling out, "Titans Go!"
We all got there, hoping that it was someone other than our friend. Our hopes quickly died away, when Beast Boy came walking out with piles of money. "Hello old friends," Beast Boy greeted. He was wearing a different uniform than the last time they met. He was wearing Slade's uniform, the very same one Robin was wearing when he worked for Slade.
"No way. . ." Robin said. "What's the matter, Robin, or as your girlfriend would say Robby-poo?" Beast Boy asked. Robin couldn't believe his eyes, and neither could the rest of us. Really, since when would Beast Boy, the greatest guy in the world, become so evil.
"Really, you guys are such a drag," Beast Boy said, "You can't have expected me to stay there could you have? I was waiting to get out of that dump you call a home!"
"Please, Gar. . .Please don't tell me it's true," I asked, and out of everyone, Beast Boy least expected it from me, as I could see it in his face.
His smile grew as he fired.
