Episode 15: Empty

Author: Brruundin

Warning, I do not own the Titans or any other DC characters I may use.

So when the next morning came, the Titans felt different. Robin was no longer a member and it just didn't feel right to them. None of them could sleep and as the morning dragged on they still didn't know what to do. It wasn't until Raven decided to do something about it when they actually spoke to each other.

"Alright, Robin is gone. It sucks, but we can't let it affect us as a team. It's what Slade wants, and if we let it affect us, everything we know and love will be gone. So the task at hand is locating the rest of Titans East and teaming up together. Everyone understand?" Raven says, while trying to come up with a plan for them. She knew it wouldn't be easy but it had to be done.

"Guys, I hope you'll forgive me for all this. I was just trying to get us the Titans East back. I knew I shouldn't of trusted Slade." Cyborg says in a fit of rage, he really felt bad about all the trouble he caused. The Titans were a team, and because of him the team was splitting.

"Friend Cyborg do not feel too badly about what happened yesterday. We all know you did not wish any wrong to happen to anyone. You were trying to help our friends. We cannot do the holding against you." Starfire says trying to show Cyborg she and the others did not want Cyborg think too badly of himself. The others nod in agreement.

"Yeah dude, don't worry about it too much it's going to be alright." Beast Boy says, also trying to cheer Cyborg up.

"We all make mistakes, you were only trying to help" Terra says as well.

Cyborg nods. Hopefully everything will start to get better.

"So are we going to locate our friends now?" Jinx asks, looking at Raven and then the others.

"Yeah, Aqualad has some information on where he thinks they may be, and we're going to send you and Starfire on that mission." Raven says, explaining to the group part of the plan.

"A few of us are going to stay here to keep and watch the tower and make sure nothing bad happens. Then the last couple are going on a couple scouting missions over the city to see if we can find any more information we may need to know about Slade and his plans. Everyone got it?" Raven asks, trying to take charge of the situation. They all look at each sort of confused. Raven's face becomes frustrated.

"Um dude, whose doing which?" Beast Boy asks, confused about what was going.

"Excuse me," Raven says, confused about what Beast Boy was asking about it.

"I think what BB is trying to say Rae, is that you told us what we are going to do. But not who's going to do it?" Cyborg tries to explain to Raven. Raven shakes her head at how much she has confused the group.

"Okay thanks for clearing that up Cyborg. Alright so I want Beast Boy and Terra to stay here. While Aqualad, Cyborg and myself go do the scouting missions. Is that everything?"

"Friend Raven, where am I and Jinx going to go?" Starfire asks, still confused about their part of the mission.

"Alright well since you asked, Aqualad do you care to explain to them their part like talked about earlier?" Raven says, while turning to Aqualad to introduce the next topic.

"Alright I guess I can do that much" Aqualad says, and then begins to discuss that part.

"Alright guys, so myself and the rest of Titans East were ambushed by the HIVE academy students…" (Jinx shook her head at that point) "Well since Jinx was a former HIVE academy member, we figured we could send her in along with Starfire to act as students who to join up with them so we can figure out where the Titans East are. We figured since Starfire is a pretty girl, the guys would like that too. So I guess whenever everyone is ready we can go out." Aqualad finishes and the others all nod. The plan was in place and the Titans could begin their life without Robin.

Starfire and Jinx were the first two to leave, and these were on their way out, they were saying their goodbyes.

"Well friends wish us good luck on our journey let us hope everything goes according to plan." Starfire says, trying to show some confidence. Jinx looks at her and smiles. Then she also says some words of encouragement to them.

"Yeah what Starfire says, haha we'll we will try our best, the HIVE academy are some suckers for cute girls, that's why I always boss them around." Jinx says while laughing, the others sort of laugh at the comments as well. Then the two of them head off to the HIVE academy headquarters.

The remaining Titans then begin to get ready as well, for their missions are also very important, if the wrong people got control of the tower terrible things would occur and the Titans couldn't let that happen. Robin wouldn't want it that way, and neither would they.

"Alright dudes please be safe out there, we can't afford to lose any of you three." Beast Boy says, sort of scared especially now because it seems like every day a family member has been disappearing. Beast Boy hated it, he was very close to everyone or as least he thought that and couldn't stand to lose another person.

Terra felt the same way; she would hate to lose the others. It was already terrible Robin was gone, and now the others were at risk.

"Yes please promise you'll come back, plus I don't think I could stay sane alone with Beast Boy." Beast Boy then pushes her a little and the rest of them laugh.

"Don't worry Terra we'll be fine, and we will radio in if there is any problems. Just keep BB out of trouble will you?" Cyborg says in a joking manner. They then all say their goodbyes and head out.

Once Aqualad, Cyborg and Raven left, Beast Boy and Terra got very quiet. They still weren't on good speaking terms after the incident from the other day. However, Beast Boy decided now would be a good time to try to make amends.

"Hey um Terra, I hope we can put what happened in the past. I really care about you and stuff and don't ever want to lose you. I'd give anything to take back what happened that day. I just don't want my best friend upset anymore."

Terra then looks at Beast Boy, then down at the ground. She had been hurt, but she know she couldn't stay mad at Beast Boy, she figured it was all a part of Slade's plan to stage that girl. She realized it was Ravager when she they learned that Slade had been monitoring them. So she knew it truly wasn't Beast Boy's fault. However, she wasn't emotionally strong enough at the time to tell Beast Boy to admit she had overreacted; I mean how could she let him know she had a mistake. She decided she would let him off the hook now; she couldn't stay mad at his cute face forever.

"Listen Beast Boy, I know we have been going through some tough times, and with Robin gone now it's going to be harder. So I want you to know…" Terra sighs, and a tear rolls down her cheek.

"What Terra? You can tell me anything. I promise it will be okay." Beast Boy says, while getting closer to Terra, opening out to hold her and make her feel better. She started to feel a little bit better and then continued what she was going to say.

"Thanks Beast Boy, I appreciate this, what I was going to say was that I forgive you, I know now that girl was probably Ravager, and she was working for Slade. It was all a trick to get us out of the way. I see that now, I know you were trying to do what you felt was right. I believe you and I forgive you. Now can you forgive me for acting so irrational about it?" Terra says, then lets out a smile. Beast Boy flashes one back and leans in to kiss her.

"Of course I do, I'd do anything for you." Beast Boy responds and continues to hold Terra. The two of them just lay in each other's arms waiting around hoping the other Titans would return soon. Maybe Robin would return, they would like that as well. Only time will tell what will happen to the Titans.
