Beast Boy's POV
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon
"Friend Beast Boy," A voice asked, "What are you doing in Friend Robin's room?"
"Eek" I shot up from the drawer I was searching through, to see Starfire at the doorway.
We were both in Robin's old room -or more I had gone into his old room, and she had just caught me in the act.
It was surprisingly plain, especially compared to the rest of ours.
The walls were white, but the ceiling and floor were brown. He had a large window on one wall, and a large mirrored closet on another. There were some other brown drawers attached to walls too, along with a couple of shelves next to the door.
In the middle of the room laid his bed, which had a brown frame, blue cover, and white pillows and sheet.
Geez, Raven's decoration style may be creepy, but at least she has one!
Well other than that I guess he had another brown drawer -God, how many does this guy have?!- not far from his bed, which I presume he used to use as a nightstand, that I had been looking through.
"Beast Boy?" Starfire's cross voice snapped me out of my thoughts.
"Look, Star, you can't tell the others you caught me in here!" I told her.
"Why should I not?" She answered. "You went through Friend Robin's things without his permission, which is something to be ashamed of."
"Look, Star," I said "Cyborg and Raven are going crazy with grief. They'll act like I disrespected his memory or some bullshit like that."
She paused for a moment, before asking, "Why were you searching through the drawer in the first place?"
"You wouldn't understand."
"What would I not understand?"
I sighed.
"Look, I'll tell you if you promise not to tell the others I was in here." I negotiated.
"I will make the decision once I have heard your story." She said, "In the meantime if it is not given, I will tell them no matter what."
Crap. The Girl's more crafty than she lets on.
I slumped in submission, "Fine."
We both sat down on his bed."The explanation?"
"It's pretty simple actually, to be honest." I admitted, "I'm just trying to figure out why Robin joined Slade. And I already plowed through his office so it only made sense I go here next."
"You are working towards the rescue for Friend Robin!" The Alien crowed, "Now I see the reason why you must do the snooping and keep it the secret! May I join you in your quest?"
I looked away, "Starfire, it isn't a rescue mission.
"I just… need to know."
"Oh…" She muttered, disappointed. "In that case… tell me what you find out."
"...Yeah…" I answered.
We both just sat there for a little bit, before she broke it by asking "Why is it that you wish to learn the reason, if it is not to rescue him?"
"What do you mean?"
"I mean what I just said."
I stared at her, "...Because he betrayed us? And I want to know what would motivate him to do something like that?"
She sneered, "This is another of the attempts of yours to bring him to jail, isn't it?"
"Sort of." I said, "But it's not really about that as much as it is with finding out how he could do something like this, although stopping him from doing it again is just as important too."
"Well, I will not stand for this! You shall not imprison him!"
"So you're going to tell Cyborg and Raven, I assume?" I sighed.
"No I will not. For…" She hesitated, "I still wish to join you on this endeavour."
"Wait what?!" I sputtered, "but you think Robin's innocent! And I'm trying to put him to jail!"
"Like you just said, I wish to prove his innocence." Starfire explained, "If we figure out why he has supposably joined Slade, then we will find which of us is correct about the reason. And when it is me, we shall be able to save him from Slade's evil clutches."
"Ok… so we're calling a truce in order to solve the mystery?" I asked her.
"Exactly."
Bring Bring Bring
"Come on," I turned her way, and gestured to leave, secretly somewhat relieved about the interruption. We both began running to figure out what crime it was that we needed to contend with this time.
