ChapterThree: Medical Attention
"Robin!" Flying over to Robin on the top of Titan's Tower, Starfire landed and lifted up his head only to see that he was unconscious. "Wow! DUDE!" Running alongside Beastboy, Raven, Terra, and Cyborg made it over to Robin to check on him and saw that he was still breathing, but twitching. "Yo Star, what out. We have to get him into the infirmary." Picking up Robin, Cyborg quickly took Robin into the building and down into the infirmary. Hooking him up to their detection machine, Cyborg herd the infirmary door open and footsteps drawing near.
"How's Robin?" Raven's voice came from behind Cyborg. "I don't know just yet, but something pretty bad happened out there, I know it." "He went back to the museum right?" "Yeah..." "Why didn't he want us to go?" "I don't know... huh?" Hearing the computer beep continuously, Cyborg turned his head to his right and walked over to the machine. "Cyborg, what is it?" Raven asked with concern as Cyborg looked shocked from the results. "It's like he's been struck by lightning. Some electricity hit him, and hit him hard." "Red X?" "Naw, this doesn't looks like his type of work." "Who do you have in mind?" "That one guy that works for Slade." "Ken?" Cyborg nodded his head as he made contact with Robin. "Right."
Punching the wall with frustration on his face, Cyborg closed his eyes and took slow deep breath as he tried to calm down from seeing his friend injured. "Cyborg?" "Who is this Ken guy? Why is he working with Slade? Why did he do this to Robin? I'm gonna make him pay for this." Cyborg spoke with a vendetta as he opened back up his eyes and looked at Raven. "We don't have time to get angry Cyborg, he have to place our attention on Robin." "Yeah, your right. Huh!" Turning their heads towards a sound coming from the bed, they watched as Robin slowly turned his head towards them. "Robin?" Raven and Cyborg said at the same time in shock.
"It...
it feels like... like my whole body... is on fire." I'll go get a
wet towel and a cup of water, Raven you stay here with him."
"Alright." As Cyborg quickly left from out of the room, Raven
made her way over to Robin at a steady pace. "What.. is it...
Raven?" "Mind telling me what happened out there?" Before Robin
could even speak, Beastboy rushed into the room as a cheetah with a
bucket of water hanging from his mouth and a dry towel on top of his
head. Stopping and sitting next to Raven, Raven took the dry towel
off Beastboy's head as he placed the bucket of water onto the floor.
Changing back into himself, Beastboy smiled and began jumping
around.
"Dude!! Your awake!! That's awesome!! How you
feeling buddy!?" Tapping Robin on his left shoulder, Robin jumped
and shouted in pain from Beastboy's light touch. "Wow dude! Sorry
about that. I um... I guess I'll be going now." Running out of the
room and away from Raven's wrath, the door closed shut after
Beastboy's exit and Raven turned her attention back on Robin,
awaiting an answer to her question. "Well?" "Red X. He...
stole something from the museum." "Do you know what it was?"
"...No." "He didn't do this to you, did he?" "No...
actually, he... he saved me." "He did what!?" Raven's eyes
opened with shock. Hearing the door open, Cyborg returned into the
room with a pitcher filled with ice water and a clear tall plastic
cup.
"I see Beastboy brought everything like I asked. Raven... whats up?" "Red X saved..." Cutting Raven short of her words, Robin finished the sentience for her. "Saved me." "You mind tell me that again?" "Red X... he's the one who saved me and brought me here." Standing in shock, not able to see X saving Robin, Cyborg just gave a little chuckle and poured a cut of water. "Robin, can you sit up?" "I can try." Slowly trying to sit up, painful expression constantly grew on Robin's face. "Robin stop." Cyborg demanded as he placed his hand in front of Robin's chess, stopping him from sitting up any further.
Hearing the door open up behind them, Cyborg and Raven turned their heads to see Starfire flying pasted them. "Robin! Are you okay? What happened? How..." "Calm down Star, I'll be okay." Looking at Raven and nodding his head, Raven and Cyborg said their goodbyes to Robin only for the moment, and left the room to Robin and Starfire. "Why did you leave and not tell us? We could of assisted you!" "Star I..." being cut off by her continuing, Robin sat back and let her blow off her steam towards him. "Do you think we are unable to help you?" "It's not that Star..." "Then what is it!? Why did you leave on your own?" "First, can you give me some of that water over there on the table? I'm really thirsty."
Doing as asked, Starfire grabbed the cup and placed it to Robin's mouth. After drinking all of the water in the cup, Robin told her why he left on his own and also what happened to him. Calming down as she tried to understand why he went alone, Starfire grabbed the dry white towel and dunked it into the cold water. Placing the cold towel on Robin's feverish head, she then sat down only to get a buzz on her communicator from Cyborg. "Starfire!" "Yea?" "Stay there with Robin." "Cyborg! What's going on?" Robin shouted for Cyborg could inform him on what was happening. "It's Red X and Ken!!" "Where are they!?" "There in the city." "So there helping each other?" "I don't think so, they're fighting." Closing his eyes Robin took a deep breath of relief and gave Cyborg a command. "Cyborg, do me a favor alright?" "What is it?" "Help Red X, I owe him." "Don't worry, I'm on it." "Thanks, now I owe you." "Just pay me back by getting better soon. Cyborg out."
