Bye Bye Robin
Strix Moonwing: Hi guys! Sorry for the long wait. There's this writer's competition going on at my school and I've been trying to write a short story for it. I hope you enjoy this chapter!
Chapter 8: Honestly Sincere!
"RRRROOOOOOOOBBBBBBBIINNNNNN!"
"AAAAAUUUUGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!" screamed Robin, falling out of his bed in surprise. He untangled himself from his blanket and stood up in battle stance, preparing for any attack that sounded like it was about to take place. To his surprise his room was empty.
He rubbed the back of his head, wondering where that scream had come from. He went over to the window and opened it to see if it had come from outside…..big mistake.
"AAAAHHHHH! ROOOOOBBBBINNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!" The mere intensity of the scream send Robin flying into the wall oppose of the window. Outside, there were hundreds and hundreds of Robin fangirls surrounding the islands, and based on all the rowboats coming towards the island, more were on the way.
Suddenly Cyborg barged into Robin's room. "Yo Robin! Wakey wakey, we can't have our little moneymaker….er….I mean…hero sleeping his day away!" Cyborg looked around the room for Robin. "Uhhh…Robin?"
"I…right…here." Mumbled Robin from behind the door. When Cyborg had barged in, he had swung the door at Robin's face, making him stick to the wall. Grinning sheepishly, Cyborg closed the door and helped Robin up.
Rubbing his aching limbs, Robin asked. "Cyborg, where did all those girls come from? Why are they here!?"
"To see you of course!" Cyborg said gleefully. "These are all your fans! Yours and Raven's! They're here to support you two for today's interview!"
"But we don't kiss until tomorrow night!" Robin cried. Another scream went up, making Robin cover his ears in pain. Cyborg just got a dreamy smile on his face and sighed. "Ahhhhh music to my ears."
"We got to get them leave!" Robin growled, uncovering his ears.
Cyborg shrugged in an unconcern manner. "What? They're not hurting anybody!"
Suddenly the covering of the air vent crashed to the ground and two fangirls fell out of it. Both Robin and Cyborg stared at them in surprise.
One of the fangirls let out a loud squeal that make both Robin and Cyborg wince and take a step back.
"OMG! IT'S ROBIN!" The fangirl squealed happily to her friend.
Her friend jumped into Robin's arms and hugged him around the neck. "MARRY ME! I'M TEN TIMES BETTER THAN RAVEN AND STARFIRE!"
Before the Robin could say anything, the other fangirl jumped into his other arm and clung to his neck. "NO I LOVE YOU MORE!"
"Girls…can't…breath!" gasped Robin, turning blue from the lack of oxygen as the two fangirls clung to him. He rolled his eyes toward Cyborg, who was in silent laughter. "Help….me…you….idiot!"
"Fine, fine." Muttered Cyborg, pulling out his sonic cannon. He pointed it at the girls. "Yo, nobody marries Robin before I eat my breakfast!" With that he blasted the girls out the window.
Robin rubbing his aching neck and said. "Uh, don't you think you were being a little harsh?"
"To the fangirls?"
"No, to my window!" Robin pointed at the destroyed window.
"Yeah, I guess that was a little harsh."
"Not as harsh as how I'm going to be to you two." Growled a monotone voice. Raven walked through Robin's doorway, with a fanboy clinging to her cape as she dragged him along.
"I love you Raven! Please marry me, we're both Goth!" He cried, still hanging on to her cape.
Raven raised an eyebrow. "No you're not. You're wearing pink." She pointed at the pink shirt on the fanboy that read "I LOVE RAVEN".
He blushed. "Uhhhh…pink is the new black in Timbuktu?" Raven threw him out the smashed window with her powers.
Putting her hands on her hips, she growled, "Okay, may someone please tell me why there are fangirls crawling in the air vents and yelling outside?"
Before Robin could say anything, Cyborg grabbed both of them and started to drag them outside. "For the interview, of course! It starts right now!"
"WHAT?!" stuttered the two of them as they were both dragged by Cyborg towards the horror that was fangirls and fanboys.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN NO?!" screamed Bumblebee as she watched both Starfire and Beast Boy shake their heads at her. How dare they!? She was their friend! There was no way the two of them could say no to her brilliant plan!
Starfire looked at her enraged friend with sad eyes. "Friend Bee of Bumble, I and Friend Beast Boy mean no harm, but…"
"What you're asking us to do is crazy!" finished Beast Boy, waving his arms around. "Really, I know that you're jealous of Granny Cy, but this is insane!"
"I AM NOT JEALOUS OF THAT WITCH!" snarled Bee, flames in her eyes. Beast Boy smiled nervously and backed away.
Starfire put her hand on Bumblebee's shoulder. "Do not fret Friend Bumblebee. I am sure that Cyborg's feelings for you have not changed despite of the many accusations made by Granny Cy." This did not make Bumblebee feel any better.
"Yeah," said Beast Boy, "And even if it did, you're plan wouldn't help at all!"
"Come on! You know you want to do it!" Cried Bee, not giving up. "Aren't you two the least bit mad at Robin and Raven for what they're going to do?"
Beast Boy looked away hastily. "No….Yes…Maybe!"
Starfire bit her lip. "It is true that I am most uncomfortable about the situation." She admitted. "But I still do not want to go with your plan."
Bumblebee looked from each of the two titan's set faces. "Are you sure?"
"YES!"
Bee's face fell for a second, but was replaced with a look of determination. "Fine! I'll come up with a new plan…but don't you two come crying back to me when Robin and Raven start going out!" With that the angry and jealous titan stomped away to sulk somewhere else.
Starfire turned to Beast Boy. "Do you believe that Friend Bumblebee shall be alright?"
"I'm sure she'll be fine." Beast Boy said. He flicked his ears and said, "Come on, let's go see how Robin's holding up with all his fans."
"Cyborg, I do not know how I let you talk me into this." Growled Robin, who was surrounded by about a hundred fangirls. Raven had only stayed for a couple seconds, before growling at the fanboys and teleporting back into the tower.
"Ah, don't be a spoil sport like Raven!" Cyborg said, patting Robin on the back while grinning. He seemed to enjoying this whole thing greatly, mainly because of the publicity that occurring.
Trying to make his voice heard over the roaring of the girls, Robin said, "Cyborg, I just don't feel comfortable around all these girls!"
"What? Some of them are guys!"
"WHAT!?" Robin cried, horrified. Cyborg laughed and clapped him on the shoulder.
"Robin, relax! All these girls are fans of you! They love you and your crime fighting skills!"
Robin brightened up. "They…they do?"
Cyborg smiled widened. "Of course they do!" He gave Robin a push. "Now go mingle!"
All the fangirls screamed with joy as Robin went into their reach. They cooed and giggled as Robin gave them a nervous wave. A reporter made his way through the mob and got to Robin.
"So Robin, how does it feel being loved by every girl in America?" asked the reporter, notepad and pencil in hand.
Robin looked from the reporter to all the girls and smiled nervously. "It feels alright…" He frowned. "I guess." He was pulled roughly a head lock by Cyborg. "Ahh…don't be so modest! Sincere boy here loves it!"
The report was suddenly knocked aside by some fangirls, who crowded around the poor Boy Wonder in a giggling mass.
"Oh Robin!" cried one fangirl. "We love you so much!"
"Yeah, you protect the city and everything!" cooed another. "You must tell us how you do it!"
Robin rubbed the back of his head in embarrassment. "Well…it helps having a great team."
One girl fluttered her long eyelashes at him. "Ohhhh…he's soooo sincere."
Suddenly some music started to magically appear out of nowhere. Everyone looked around, expecting a person to sing. One girl cried out, "Yay! Robin's going to sing!"
"What?!" Robin cried. "I'm not going to…." Suddenly Cyborg pulled him away from the fangirls.
"Dude, you've got to sing!" he whispered. "Think of the publicity!"
Robin narrowed his eyes as his metal friend. "No, Cyborg. I'm not going to sing."
"But somebody's gotta sing! The music came on!"
"You sing!"
"I'll pay you twenty bucks!"
"Fifty."
"Twenty-five."
"Forty."
"Deal!" The two friends shook on it and turned to face the mob of fangirls who were waiting for the lover boy known as Robin to make their hearts go wild.
Robin slowing started to strut towards the girls who were silent with anticipation. "You gotta be sincere……" All the girls let out a moan of pleasure as he passed them. It was at this moment that Beast Boy and Starfire chose to show up. Beast Boy eyed the girls and asked, "What's the matter with them?"
"You got-ta be sincere!" Beast boy and Starfire noticed that Robin was singing. "Robin, what are you doing?" Starfire asked. He ignored her question and continued to strut around the fangirls.
"You got-ta be sincere…you gotta feel it here…'cause if you feel it here, well then you're gon-na be...hon-est-ly sin-cere!" Cyborg got out a guitar and started to play in a fast tempo, making the music more upbeat. Robin started in enjoy singing and started to smile and dance around the lovesick fangirls….much to the annoyance of Starfire.
Robin: "If what you feel is true, (Really feel it) You make them feel it too, (Write this down now!) You gotta be sin-cere…hon-est-ly sin-cere! Man, you've got to beeeee sin-cere!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Everybody was now dancing wildly now…that is except Starfire. She glared at Beast Boy, who was dancing horribly next to her. He saw the look she was giving him and stopped abruptly.
Robin: "If you're really sin-cere! If you're really sin-cere! If you fee it in here, Then it's got-ta be right! He struck a pose and shouts, "Oh baby!"
All the fangirls: (screams) AAAAHHHHHHHHH!
Robin: "Ooh honey!"
Fangirls: (screams) AAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Robin: "Hug me!"
Fangirls: (screams) AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!
Robin: "Suffer!"
Fangirls: (screams) AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!
Robin: "In everything I do, my sin-cer-i-ty shows through! I look you in the eye, don't eve-en have to try! It's au-to-ma-tic! I'm sin-cere!!!!!!! When I sing about a tree…I really felt hat tree! When I sing about a girl….I really feel that girl! I mean I really feel……….sin……………………cere!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Starfire was now glaring daggers at Robin as he danced through the mob of fangirls who were all laughing and giggling with joy as they danced to his singing.
Robin: If you're really sin-cere! If you're really sin-cere! If you feel it in here, then it's got-ta be right! Oh baby!
Fangirls: (screams) AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!
Robin: "Ooh, baby!"
Fangirls: (screams) "AAAHHHHAHHHHHHHH!
Robin: "Oh honey!"
Fangirls: (screams) "AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Robin: "Hug me!"
Fangirls: (screams) "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!
Robin: "Suffer!"
Fangirls: (screams) "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Robin: "You got-ta be sin-cere! Oh, oh, oh! You got-ta be sin-cere! Oh oh oh my baby!
Ohhhhhhhh my baby! Ohhhhhhhh yeah! Ohhhhhhh my baby! Ohhhhhh yeah!
Now, every time that Robin touched a fangirl, she would faint on spot. Tons of fangirls were fainting every minute in a swoon of love. Starfire's eyes started to glow green with rage.
Robin: "Well ya gon-na be sin-cere! Well ya gon-na be sincere! Yeah! Well ya-gon-n be sin-cere! Well ya gon-na be sin-cere!
Remaining fangirls: "Yeah!"
Robin: "Ohhhhhh my baby! Oh yah! Ohhhhh my baby! Oh yeah! Well ya gon-na be sin-cere! Well ya gon-na be sin-cere!
Robin grabbed Cyborg's guitar and started to play it himself.
Robin: "Ohhhhhhh my baby! Ohhhhhh yeah! Ohhhhh my baby! Ohhhhh yeah! Ohhhhhhh yeah! Ohhhhhhh my baby! Oh yeah! Yeah! Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
He ended the song by jumping in the air and doing a split. Raven heard the noise and looked out the window to find Robin, with a guitar in his hands, surrounded by a thousand unconscious fangirls and an enraged Starfire.
She shook her head. "Well…that's one way to get rid of fangirls."
By the end of the song, Starfire's hands and eyes were glowing green with enragement. Her teeth were clenched and steam was coming out her ears. How dare those girls try and get together with Robin! And worst yet….Robin seemed to enjoy all of the attention that he was getting from the fangirls! This was all because of this stupid contest!
Suddenly the angry alien princess spotted Bumblebee standing right next to her. There was a smirk on the titan's face. With clenched teeth, Starfire stared at the girl crazy Robin and growled, "Friend Bumblebee….."
"Yes?" asked Bee, eyebrows raising.
"What was your plan again?"
Strix Moonwing: Haha, I hope you've enjoyed the song! Please review!
