Chapter 9()
Robin tossed stuff behind him faster than it could fall on him, he nearly took a hit to the head but instead he grabbed his attacker and put it under his arm, "You're coming with my buddy!" Robin realized he was talking to crutches so he quickly shut up, and reminded himself to clean up his room later. Robin's room now looked like a swamp, Beast Boy wasn't the only one who seriously needed to clean out his closet. Robin felt kind of weird leaving all this stuff lying around on his floor, usually he was very neat. At his top speed he shoved everything back into his closet, then shut and locked it. Unfortunately he had accidentally put away one of the crutches. Half sighing half growling Robin ripped over the door grabbed the crutch and shut the door. He could hear everything fall down inside his closet; he hoped that door was strong…
Robin looked at his watch; Cyborg would probably be half way through the tests by now… As he ran toward the door he tripped, "Better be careful, or I'll end up needing these crutches…" Robin slapped a hand over his mouth, "Talking to yourself is the first sign of insanity." He laughed, and then realized he was talking to himself again. He closed the door behind him, "Now to get these to Star…" He looked around, he put the crutches under his arms and crutch-walked al the way to Cyborg's room. 'Crutches are a whole new way of working out', Robin decided. He knocked on Cyborg's door and resisted the urge to kick it open.
"Come on in, man," Cyborg waited for Robin to close the door.
"Well?" Asked Robin.
"The tests are complete and… There is definitely something weird going on…" As Cyborg said this, Star kicked out the purple spider web leg, and a purple web came shooting out…OF HER LEG!
Robin resisted to urge to gag, "So…err, what does this tell us?"
Cyborg shrugged, "Something REALLY weird is going on."
Robin glared, "We already knew that!"
" Hey I can tell you more when Raven and Beastboy come back with the spider…"
Right on cue, "Honies we're home! Hey Star, nice tattoo!" Raven resisted to urge to kick Beastboy.
"Robin what is a tat-oooooo?" Star asked.
"Err, a TATTOO is a…err…" Robin stumbled.
"Really cool thing! Printed on you skin, it can be all different colors-"
Raven cut Beastboy off, "Hey then you could be one BIG tattoo."
Beastboy glared, "You couldn't resist could you?" Raven shook her head.
"The point is…It's NOT a tattoo." Cyborg said.
"The it's a really great marker drawing, how'd ya learn to draw like that?"
"Beastboy it isn't a drawing! It's stuck on Star's leg!" Robin yelled.
Wait… It's stuck ON her leg? I thought it was under the skin…." Cye mumbled.
Star slid a hand down her leg and tugged at a corner of the web, her fingernail went right under it. "Well that answers that question, can you pull it off?" Robin asked. Star shook her head.
"So… DO you guys have the spiders?" Cye asked.
"Yep right here!" Beastboy pulled out a see through container.
"There's only one." Pointed out Raven.
"There were two, you saw them Raven."
Beastboy put his eyes up next to the box, there was a leg sticking out of the weird spiders mouth, "One ate the other."
"EW!" "Is that possible?" "Is that not considered Candleism?" "Cannibalism actually…"
"Well", said Cye, "I'll just run the tests n this one then…"
"You do that, we'll work on finding Fang", Said Robin. After Beastboy and Raven left, "Almost forgot, here Star these are called crutches… They worked like this… That way you can walk."
"But Robin I think I like it better when you carry me…" Said Star.
Robin threw the crutches over his shoulder and shrugged, "Works for me!" He picked Star up bride style and carried her out of the room.
A/N: Let's here it for Random fluff at the end! I swear I will get to the point soon… ;)
