Disclaimer: I don't own any of them.
In Room 203
Victor Stone shot out of bed after hearing the alarm. He got up and put on his orange jumpsuit and pants (A.N. He sleeps in his boxers.)
"What's all the noise bout?" Vic asked Robin whom was already awake.
"Someone said something about a break in." Robin replied then looked over at Gar.
"Who'd want to break into this dump?" Vic asked as Robin shrugged.
"Beast boy's still sleeping?" Robin asked staring at the snoring teen.
"Man that kid can sleep through anything. Hang on…Hey BB there a few girls in bikini's asking for you." Vic whispered in his ear as Gar practically jumped out of bed.
"Where?" Gar asked dazed.
"No where, salad head the alarms are going off." Vic said as Gar plopped back down on the bed.
"You woke me up for that? Dude it's like 12:30. I need my beauty sleep-"
"Beast boy quit acting like a girl and get up." Robin said harshly as Gar grumbled and put his shirt on.
"Gar when's the last time you showered? You smell like that tofu shit." Vic said holding his nose in disgust.
"Hey tofu doesn't have a smell." Gar said.
"Oh yeah. Then it must be you." Vic replied.
"Cut it out guys. This could be a chance to escape." Robin said smirking.
"Dude no one sides Kid Flash been able to even get past sector 4, and they still caught him." Gar said referring to Wallace (or Wally) West. His speed helped him get pretty far but they armed the last place with heat sensing tasers and he got hit.
"I've got a blueprint of the entire building." Robin said.
"How'd you do that?" Vic said, no one knew this place better than him and even he didn't manage to record every single inch of this place.
"I jacked it off that gothic bitch. It was too easy. Come on are we getting out of here or what?" Robin asked.
"But like what if we get caught. Then we're screwed for life." Gar said.
"No one's going to get caught. You're with me, remember? And Richard Grayson doesn't get caught." Robin said opening the door, a guard was in front of it.
"There'll be guards outside of each of your dorms, so don't even think about escaping." The guard said as Robin closed the door and groaned slumping down on the wall. Gar and Vic started snickering.
Meanwhile in Room 410
"You seem to have blasted some kind of solar energy." Raven said examining the burnt package of cigarettes.
"Rock on Starfire." Tara said.
"Excuse me?" Kory asked.
"Starfire, you know, it's sort of like solar energy and all, sort of thought it'd be a cool thing to give you a nickname. I know it's stupid and-"
"Actually I find it glorious, this may bring me one pace closer to doing the how you say the 'fitting in'." Kory said smiling.
"It's one step closer. Star, man this is awesome. Now we have an extra sparring partner." Tara said slapping Kory on the back causing her to gag.
"S-Sparring partner?" Kory asked nervously, after seeing Tara and Robin in battle, she was afraid of what Raven could do.
"Yeah, heck maybe me and Rae could give you some pointers-"
"This is all wrong." Raven said interrupting Tara.
"What is wrong Friend Raven?" Kory asked.
"This is all wrong. None of us should even be here." Raven said like an insane person, oblivious of those around her.
"She's having one of her 'moments'." Tara said rolling her eyes.
"Hey gothic bitch, don't go intellectually insane on us now." Tara said punching Raven's shoulder lightly as she seemed to snap back to reality.
"I looked through all the records. We all had a chance to get out of here and they lied about our release dates. You and I were supposed to be released a month ago." Raven said leaning on a wall folding her arms in deep thought.
"Why'd they want to keep us here? That's what you're missing witch. We're a bunch of teens. We're not highly trained, our parents are low lives, and we've lost every thing there was worth losing. We're lower than the lowest. It doesn't make sense." Tara said climbing up the small ladder and leaning on her bunk bed. Arms folded behind her staring at the ceiling. Kory was completely clueless on why as well.
"Unless…" Raven started.
"They knew it all along…" Tara continued.
"And let us get away with sneaking in…" Raven said.
"Just so they could…watch…us." Tara stated as both her and Raven's eyes widened. Tara and Raven started frantically looking around the room and finally Raven spotted a small camera. She punched it as the glass cracked.
"They know." She said in defeat.
"This isn't a discipline institute. It's a lab and we're the rats." Tara said.
"We are being…tested on?" Kory asked.
"Yeah. It all makes sense, our powers, and the chemicals in the food were bio hazardous. The reason Tara didn't detect it was-"
"That they kept it at an amount that wouldn't kill us. The mysterious deaths, they must OD'd on the stuff. You noticed all those kids ate like animals." Tara said interrupting her.
"We've got to find someway to escape." Raven said.
"We can't do it alone. We're going to need help." Tara said.
"Might I suggest the three gentlemen we met yesterday-"
"NO." Tara and Raven said in unison.
"Anyone besides those idiots is good." Raven muttered.
"How about Garth, Roy, and Wally, they were some of the closest people to run out of this joint." Tara suggested.
"I don't think we should let too many people in on this." Raven replied as a knocking sound was heard. Raven opened the door and three boys were pushed in.
"What the hell are you doing in here?" Tara asked shocking Robin a bit by her sudden change in attitude.
"There checking the rooms on the left side, you know all the odd numbers. They're doing even next." Vic said.
"Thanks for helping me out earlier…don't do it again." Robin said to Tara.
"I don't intend to." Tara replied coldly.
"You guys know anything about the break in?" Robin asked.
"Friend Raven, Tara and I-"
"Just found out about it." Raven said as Tara elbowed Kory in the ribs.
"Really. What smells like burnt cigarettes?" Vic said sniffing the air.
"Just took a long drag." Tara said.
"You smoke?" Gar asked.
"Yeah, that a problem Logan?" Tara asked.
"No sir, I mean ma'am." Gar said. There was a long moment of silence.
"So…we're going to be here for a while. What do you guys want to talk about?" Gar asked as Tara walked over to a drawer and pulled out a can of beer. Gar and Vic stared at her.
"You guys want?" Tara asked.
"That's stuff's gonna kill you." Vic said.
"Eh, I've had a pretty good run." Tara said shrugging opening the can.
"Toss one over here." Robin said as Tara tossed him a can.
"You keep those stashed in there?" Robin asked as she nodded.
"You better hid 'em. There searching every inch, even the drawers." Robin said opening the can and taking a sip.
"Well…you guys figure out a topic?" Gar asked attempting to break the silence.
"Oh, I got one. What age do you wanna get laid?" Vic asked as Tara gagged on her beer and coughed for a while.
"Typical male question" Raven said rolling her eyes.
"Just wondering. For me probably when I hit legal drinking age, probably get stoned beyond reasoning, and you know the rest." Vic said.
"Since when was the last time you did anything legal?" Robin asked smirking.
"A while back I guess, didn't think I'd get caught. How bout you Gar?" Vic asked.
"Gee I dunno, I guess when I meet that special someone as soon as we're both ok with it and all." Gar said twiddling his thumbs.
"You mean Te-"
"Victor" Gar said interrupting him.
"Seriously quit making out with your pillow when you're sleeping, its sick and what sucks more is when Vic I and are awake we have to watch." Robin said as Gar's face flushed with embarrassment.
"We really didn't need to know that." Raven said disgusted. There was another knock on the door.
"Sorry for the inconvenience, but you'll have to stay in this room until this afternoon." The guard said.
"Do you not realize that there are two opposite genders in one room?" Raven asked.
"You girls can defend yourselves." The guard said before slamming the door, not noticing there were two kids with beer in their hands.
"Idiots" Raven muttered.
"So…looks like we're sharing a room." Robin said winking at Kory.
"This is our room, which means there will be rules." Tara said both Raven and her smirking.
"Rule 1: No sharing beds. I don't care if the floor is cold or hard." Raven said.
"Rule 2: If you go through our clothes there will be consequences." Tara said.
"Rule 3: If you don't control your hormones around us you will each get your heads dunked into the toilet to receive multiple swirlies. Tara and I will see to it personally." Raven said.
"Rule 4: Leave Kory alone Dick, you're a bad influence." Tara said.
"Hey, it's not like you can blame me if you look at her-"
"Don't even finish it." Raven said going on her bunk bed.
"Hey there's one extra bed." Gar said.
"You…don't want to sleep in that." Tara said climbing up the ladder and pulling the sheets over herself.
"What's wrong with it? It's perfectly fine." Vic said walking towards it.
"Some really sick kid used to sleep there…she puked and accidentally wetted herself on the first day. Found out she died a few months ago and that's been empty ever since." Raven said as Robin finally noticed a strange smell.
"We never bothered to clean it." Tara added.
"Dude"
"Aww…man that is gross"
"Disgusting" Gar, Victor and Robin said.
"Aren't girls supposed to be clean or something?" Gar asked.
"We don't have gloves and we didn't think we'd be getting a roommate. We sprayed it a lot with stuff but it still stinks like shit. Why else do you think me and Rae shower at least a million times each day?" Tara asked as all the guys got on the floor. After a long moment of silence Gar spoke.
"I can't sleep." He said.
"We don't care." Tara said using her pillow as a sound barrier.
"How bout if I give you a hug?" Gar asked as Tara threw her empty can of beer at him, smacking the side of his head.
"Give it a rest Gar." Robin groaned, he couldn't manage to get any sleep either. Victor was sleeping like a log.
"Do you possess the uncomfortable feeling of resting on the ground?" Kory asked
"Well sort of." Robin said folding his arms and placing them behind his head.
"Do you wish to rest on this mattress?" Kory asked.
"Nah it's ok." Robin said smiling.
"But if it is too cold or hard you may rest in this area and I may rest on the ground…" Kory said as Robin got up and placed his arms on her bed, his head using his arms as a support.
"It's ok really. Not tired?" Robin asked.
"I am feeling the insecure emotion. Perhaps I am the 'homesick'?" Kory asked as Robin chuckled.
"Is there something humorous?" Kory asked.
"I almost forgot you were new here. Maybe you are a bit homesick. I got really nervous when I came here too…but I got used to it. That's what you have to do, give it sometime." Robin said.
"You are not much of a male reproductive organ as Tara and Raven claimed. You are… perhaps very nice, just misunderstood." Kory said.
"Maybe everyone here is." Robin replied.
A.N. I was sort of thinking of a BB/T pairing, then when I looked at the profiles of a few reviewers...I reconsidered. So I won't be run out of town with people tailing me with pitch forks, I'll make it one-sided. Gar'll have a crush on her but she'll just see him as a good friend. I don't really know how to make this work with a BB/R pairing without changing Raven and turning her into a completely out of character person. You'll probably get the next chapter by next week. Thanks for taking the time to read and hopefully review this.
