Jaxson had been around the tower for a couple of days. It surprised everyone when Robin let him stay since he hadn't completely entrusted him yet. On the fact of trust all the Titans have been oddly comfortable comfortable with his suddenly presence. Cyborg decided that Jaxson would be his victim in video games competition, Starfire had befriended him like just about everyone, Raven felt slightly on edge with him but not much, and Robin watch him every move like a hawk. As for Alex she couldn't help but get butterflies in her stomach every time he talked to her, but there was something nagging at her to be careful around him.

Alex POV

Alex just walked into the kitchen for a small breakfast than go to her place to clear her mind when she heard yelling. When the sliding doors open she immediately saw what the yelling was about; Jaxson and Cyborg were playing against each other each other. Shaking her head a small smirk appeared on her lips as she searched the cabinets for something to eat. Problem, nothing in the cabinets that held food satisfied what she wanted.

Groaning she opened the mini fridge pushing past things Alex felt like they had everything she didn't want. Feeling her face fall into a displeased one Alex settled on some fruit.

" Boo- WHAT?!" Cyborg shout, some snickering followed. Alex slowly lifted her head to see what had happen. Seeing it for herself she held her stomach she laughed so hard, Jaxson had beaten Cyborg on the video game.

" Looks like the unbeatable Cye has been beaten!" Alex teased as she walked over and patted the metal mans shoulder.

" Shut it." Cyborg remarked angrily. Alex could tell if it was possible steam would be coming out of his ears; she decided to have some fun.

" Make me!" Alex said, with a huge smile. He gave her and evil glare before she grabbed the controller from his hands, and running.

" Oh now you've asked for it!" Cyborg yelled chasing after her, " Come Here!"

Alex turned into a cheetah and started running all over the tower, soon losing Cyborg, but she still ran at full speed. As she ran around the tower Alex thought that she would fill the extiment like when she and Gar would pull a prank on one of the members of the team.

It just wasn't there.

Entering the main living space again Alex turned into her human form again. She let a small smile play on her lips even though she felt empty. Alex plopped herself on the couch next to Jaxson letting the fake smile grow into a sly smirk.

" C'mon let do a round before the grumpy Cye comes back." Alex suggested

" Y-yeah, lets." Jaxson agreed with a sappy look.

Picking a game the two began playing each other. Luckily the game that they pick was one she was very skilled in. Alex knew every shortcut the game had to offer which was why she was winning.

Alex was about to make the last move into winning the game when two metal fingers struck in her sides making her drop the controller. Alex doubled over in the tickling sensation till she fell off the couch.

" Dude!" She exclaimed in frustration.

" Got ya BB" Cyborg declared with a smile, but she didn't smile back instead she tensed up. She watched his face fall as he realized what he said.

Alex stood up and crossed her arms the doors her only focus. She had to get out she didn't know why, but getting out of the room out of the T shaped building was the only thought. Alex felt her breath shorten and soon it didn't feel like she was walking by her control.

" Alex. . ."

She heard her name, but she did nothing upon the calling. 'Just walk out' was the top priority. She didn't stop till a cool metal surface came in contact with her light green shoulder.

" Alex, I'm sorry-"

" It's fine." She replied not caring who it was. Alex ripped her shoulder from the person grip and continued walking. . .leaving whoever tried to stop her.

Jaxson POV

He watched the whole thing from her beating him to her walking out without a reason. Jaxson every muscle said to go after her to comfort her, but his mind refused. The sliding doors caught his attention only to see a slumped half metal man walk in and fall onto the couch face in hand.

" Why did she leave?" Jaxson asked, already probably knowing the answer. Every since he shook her hand he knew all her fear she hind just how broken she was. Well it was him power after all, he knew all the titans fear, hence they all shook his hand ( he did also have fire, and illusions). Jaxson knew how it felt to fill empty, with all the fear that surrounds him daily there was practically no light. Perfect, then replaced his thoughts of sympathy.

" I don't know Alex never left like that." Cyborg replied, " Maybe because I called her BB on accident."

" Why would that affect her?" He asked monotoned, but interested. It would fall perfectly with the plans.

" Her brothers a sensitive spot for her since he. . .y'know."

"Oh" He thought sifted again to the somber tone again for an instant, but they turned to his twisted thoughts again. His master and him are coming closer by the minute," I see. . ."
