Chapter 2 friends?
Gar sighed looking at a picture of his family. It had been two years sense his parents had died in a boating accident, sense then he had been living alone and had changed his name calling himself Beast Boy.
He groaned rolling over on his bed. "There's nothing to do." He complained.
Suddenly a loud ranting sound filled his pointed-like ears. He slid up off his bed and walked into his living room peeking out of the window and seeing men with torches and pitchforks.
"Wha…?" Said Beast Boy confused.
"It's in there I can see it's eye." Said one of the men.
"Let's go get it then." Yelled another.
"Uh oh." Said Beast Boy, he quickly transformed into a fly and flew onto the ceiling as the door burst open and mob of stampeding men came barging into the house overturning tables and looking around.
"He could be anywhere, he's a changeling!" Yelled one of them.
"Keep looking and if you find any suspicious looking animals put them in this." Said one of the men handing another guy an animal carrier.
"Got it." He said.
Beast Boy watched them overturn sofas, chairs, and beds until they finally gave up and left.
"I really thought we'd find him." Said one of the men. "They'd pay a fortune for a teen changeling." He said walking out the door.
Beast Boy transformed back to himself forgetting that he was still on the ceiling and landed on the ground with a thump. "Oww." He said rubbing his head.
A paper in the corner caught his eye; curiously he walked over to it and picked it up. "What the heck is this?" He asked himself. "Wanted…abnormal creatures?" he said looking down at the paper confused. "Weird."
"All right this one's full take them away!" Yelled a guard. "Move it along…NEXT!" The guard looked down at a young woman with black hair. "What have you got?" He asked.
"I have here an alien from the planet Tamaran." She said.
"Hmmm…interesting…do you have proof?" Asked the guard.
The girl smirked. "Just wait for it."
"You Clorbag!" Yelled the redheaded girl her eyes glowing a bright green color and zapping the girl. "How dare you turn me in I-."
"That's enough proof for me…take her away." Said the guard.
"Bye, bye sister dear." Said the black haired girl waving.
"Sister?" Asked the guard. "That means you're one too…get her." He said.
"No wait I-." Yelled the girl before getting tackled by three guards.
"STARFIRE!" Yelled a loud voice from the jungle. "Where is she?" Yelled a masked boy running out panting. "What did you do with her?"
"Robin!" Yelled the redheaded alien from inside a large cage.
"Let her go." Said the masked boy.
"I don't think so." Said the guard. "Now move along little boy…next!"
Robin clenched his fists getting shoved aside by a man and a…machine?
"And what have you got?" Asked the guard.
"I have got a real live Cyborg." Said the man wheeling over a machine.
"Can you prove it?" Asked the guard.
"Sure can." Said the man flipping on a switch, the Cyborg lit up. "Talk." He commanded.
It didn't move. "I said talk dammit!" he yelled kicking the Cyborg only to hurt his foot and end up hopping around.
"I've seen enough." Said the guard. "Take him away before this man makes more of a fool of himself then he already has."
"No wait…he's real!" Yelled the man struggling to get away and accidentally knocking over some dust making it sprinkle onto the Cyborg.
The half-man half-machine sneezed and flew zooming up into the air. "Hey I can fly!"
"He can fly!"
"He can fly!"
"He can speak."
"That's right." Said the Cyborg. "I bet you've seen a housefly, I bet you've even seen a horsefly, but I bet you never saw a Cy fly!" He exclaimed. Suddenly he fell to the ground. "Oh man." He said standing up.
"GET HIM!"
"Uh oh." Said Cyborg running away. He felt something pull him into the bushes, turning he saw the masked boy beside him.
"Umm…thanks?" Said Cyborg scratching the back of his head. "I'm Cyborg."
"Robin, do you know where they're taking them?" He asked.
"King Slade." Said Cyborg shrugging. "Why?"
"My girlfriends in there." Said Robin.
"Tough luck…how are you going to get her back?" Asked Cyborg.
"I'm not sure." Said Robin. "What's that?" He asked pulling away some vines to reveal a small house.
"Dunno." Said Cyborg. "But it looks friendly enough…let's check it out." He said walking towards the house.
"No don't-." Began Robin. But Cyborg was already at the door. He groaned walking up to him and tried to pull him away…needless to say pulling a six foot something metal robot is much harder then it looks.
"There's someone in there." Said Cyborg peering through the window.
Beast Boy looked up to see two guys sticking their heads in the window. "What the-?" He got up walking to the door and opened it. "Ummm…hello?"
"Dude, did anyone tell you that you're green?" Asked Cyborg.
"Dude, did anyone tell you that it's not polite to spy on people." Said Beast Boy.
"We're not here to spy." Said Robin. "We're looking for a place to stay till tomorrow, King Slade's got my girlfriend and I'm looking for a way to get her back."
"And…you wanna stay…here?" Asked Beast Boy.
"That's kinda why we came." Said Cyborg.
Beast Boy sighed. "Yeah, yeah, come inside." Said Beast Boy moving aside to let them in.
"This is great." Said Cyborg. "By the way I'm Cyborg and this is Robin." He said.
"Beast Boy." He said plopping down on the sofa. "Make yourself at home, just make sure you don't touch anything in that room down there."
"Why not?" Asked Cyborg.
"There's all of these chemicals and stuff down there." Said Beast Boy.
"Oh." Said Cyborg. "You know this is going to be fun we can stay up late swapping manly stories, and in the morning I'm making waffles."
Beast Boy sat up. "Nondairy waffles?" he asked.
"Dude please tell me that you're not one of those vegan people." Said Cyborg.
Beast Boy opened his mouth to speak but was cut off by Robin.
"Ummm…yeah." Said Robin quirking an eyebrow at Cyborg. "So…Beast Boy you live here alone?"
Beast Boy nodded. "Yeah."
"What's that noise?" Asked Cyborg looking around.
Suddenly a loud bang went off from the lab. Beast Boy, Cyborg, and Robin froze.
"Ummm…what was that?" Asked Cyborg.
Beast Boy darted up off the sofa and ran down to the lab, Cyborg and Robin following behind him.
When they reached the lab they found two boys running around the lab at warp speed.
"Does anybody besides me find this strange?" Asked Cyborg.
"Dude, you think this is weird it's my house and I've never seen these-."
The two stopped in front of then and smiled. "Mas y Menos see podemos!" They yelled slapping their hands together again and running around the room. (Okay I have no idea how they talk so I'm hoping I got that right.)
"They're fast." Said Beast Boy watching them run around the room.
Just then there was a loud crash from upstairs. Beast Boy groaned. "Can you guys help me out and try to catch them I need to see what's going on up there." He said running up the steps.
Cyborg jumped tackling one of them to the ground. "Grab the other one." He yelled to Robin.
Robin instantly plucked up the other one who was pulling on Cyborg's leg. "Got h-." But before he could finish a piercing scream echoing through the house cut him off.
Robin and Cyborg quickly ran up the stairs dragging the two Spanish-speaking twins with them. They looked around baffled there were people everywhere on the couch, in the kitchen, searching through the refrigerator?
"What's going on?" Asked Beast Boy.
He got no response just the sounds of the others voices talking.
Beast Boy groaned becoming slightly annoyed. He transformed into a lion and let out a huge roar making everyone stop what they were doing and turn to him. Beast Boy smirked pleased with himself. "Thank you." He said. "Now can someone please tell me what you're all doing here?" he asked.
Everyone looked at him confused.
"Don't look at us we didn't invite them." Said Robin.
"No one invited us." Said a guy that looked oddly like Robin. "You look familiar…did I see you somewhere before?" He asked pointing to Robin.
"Whoa…I didn't know you had a clone." Said Cyborg.
Robin rolled his eyes. "I don't have a-."
"What do you mean no one invited you?" Asked Beast Boy.
"We were sent here by King Slade." Said a short pink haired girl with her hair put up in pintail-like horns.
"Who?" Asked Beast Boy scratching his head confused.
"That's the guy that took Starfire." Said Robin.
"Oh I'm sure she's here somewhere." Said the pink-haired girl. "By the way I'm Jinx."
"Does anyone know where we can find him?" Asked Beast Boy.
Silence.
"Oh I know where he is." Said Cyborg. "How ya doing little lady I'm Cyborg-."
"I'm coming along." Said Robin cutting Cyborg off. "I'm getting Starfire back." He said. "And this Slade guy's going-." Suddenly he caught site of the black-haired girl that had turned Starfire in. "Blackfire." Snapped Robin walking up to the girl. "Where's Starfire?" He asked.
Blackfire shrugged. "How should I know?" She asked.
Robin glared at her.
"You mean the pretty redheaded alien girl?" Asked Robin's 'clone'. "I think he kept her…said something about keeping her for a bride for his son."
Robin's face became filled with anger. "Let's go." He said walking out of the door followed behind Beast Boy and Cyborg.
All right I hope you liked this chapter. I'm trying to keep them in their original character while still following along to make it like Shrek. But like I said there will be a few twists. Please Review.
