Sorry ahead of time for this utterly uneventful chapter. There's a roadblock in my brain that's driving me nuts! So enjoy this smigeon of filler. lolz. More action soon!
Ch 13
"Starfire, hurry up! " Batgirl called to the Tamaranian, as they raced after the figure ahead. They chased him out of the building, and into another. Starfire, much to the relief of Batgirl, was getting back to normal. Well, until…
Suddenly hundreds of Slade's robot-commado's were surrounding them. The walls were tinted with a fine red coating. "Red K? But if the pink Kryptonite affected Starfire… crap! Star, we gotta get you out of – ahh!" Batgirl was shocked when the usually mild-mannered girl threw her against the wall.
She didn't stop there though. The girl suddenly decided to go all 'Hulk Smash' on the robot commandos, throwing them across the room, and blowing them to bits. When she was surrounded, with a yell she let out a burst of green light, throwing back at least thirty robots.
"Whoa. How long does this last, 24 hoursish? Or is it different for Tamaranians?" Batgirl asked herself. "I'd better call Kal…" she took out her communicator. "Batgirl to Superman…" Her only response was static. "Right, communication's down… Well, Starfire's got things covered here… I'll go help look in Cyborg's section…"
Her plan was brought to a halt as a masked figure jumped down on her, tackling her to the floor. With a swift blow to the head, she was out cold.
Cyborg wearily looked around in the last building in the Gold Kryptonite area. So far, there had been no sign of Robin. Or Slade, for that matter. "Come on man, how well hidden could you be?"
"Better than you might think."
Cyborg's human eye widened in surprise, as he was suddenly attacked. His pursuer threw down some smoke bombs, and the disoriented Cyborg wasn't ready for the sudden attack. His head shot back as he took a foot to the jaw. His arms fell to the ground as they were hacked off by some form of throwing star. When his attacker pushed him to the ground and messed with his circuitry, he was out like a light.
Beastboy's eyes fluttered open, adjusting to the bright lights. "Wh-where am I?" A swarm of nurses swiftly stalked over to him.
"Dear, you're in the hospital. One of your teammates brought you here after you were badly burnt and electrocuted. Now, the damage isn't too extensive, thanks to your animal DNA, but you're still going to have to take it easy for the next few-"
"Wait, what happened to my friends? Is Batgirl okay? Did they find Slade? What's going on?" as much as the changeling wanted to ask about Robin, even in his condition he was aware of the mess that would result of the media found out the boy wonder was MIA.
"As far as we know from the news," a second nurse started, "After the alien girl brought you here, she went back to Cyborg and the new one, Batgirl? Nobody has seen Robin or the other one, Raven. Everyone seems to think she's helping him on some covert mission or something, 'cause she disappeared from the battle that he never showed up at..." she trailed off, hoping to get some confirmation from the titan in front of her.
Beastboy was just thrilled to get a good cover going. "Uh, covert mission? You could say that… wait, so did they save Batgirl?"
"Of course they did!" the third nurse piped up, "She's safe and sound! The titans called Superman and he came to help out. Now they're looking for Slade or someone."
"Superman came?" he asked, confused. As far as he knew, none of the titans, had even met Supes let alone have his cell… unless Batgirl or Robin knew. Guess that was just one more surprise… "Well, thanks for the help, but I have to get back to help my friends-"
"Beastboy, you can't do that! You are in no condition to be out there fighting!"
"You said it yourself, dudes, my animal DNA makes me heal faster. I feel fine. And my uniform covers up a lot of the burns anyways. It'll be fine." The nurses hesitated, but realizing there'd be no way for them to keep him there anyways…
"Fine. You're cleared. Under two conditions," the head nurse stated. "One, you apply aloe and this burn cream onto your burns immediately once you're done fighting." Beastboy nodded in agreement.
"And two?" he asked.
The nurse smiled, "Can we have your autograph?"
