ALONE
"Dude, I have missed this place." Beast Boy said happily, before turning into a sparrow hawk and twisting around Raven's head. Turning back he smiled, landing on the floor beside the T-Ship. "Starfire is going to go out of her mind when she see's how different we look. After she forgives us of course." He added, as though it was an afterthough, to be disregarded by his companions."I still don't understand why we look so different." Robin said grumpily as he dragged a piece of luggage of the T–Ship.
"Grat'k has a different balance to Earth. It's a completely different dimension – it might look like we've grown up a couple years compared to Starfire." Raven said, her voice maintaining its steady monotone. Cyborg grinned uneasily at Beast Boy's antics. "I still don't feel comfortable about this. I mean we left Star with nothing. She might have panicked. What if she thought we were kidnapped?" Cyborg pointed out as he pulled the last of the luggage out of the compartment. "And was I right or was I right when I told you the T-Ship would get us there. My baby can do anything." He proclaimed proudly. Cyborg had changed little from the trip though to the trained eye, there were some upgrades – his movements were perhaps more efficient, there seemed to be extra parts that had not been there before. The electric blue casing remained. Beast Boy had finally grown, having achieved a growth spurt within the second week of their departure. He was around an inch or two shorter than Cyborg but gangly, with little muscle gain. His costume remained the same, except the pink streak down the middle was now a dark purple.
Raven had taken on a white cloak and her hair had grown in length. She looked vaguely similar to the time she had defeated Trigon, if slightly older, her features more mature, her violet eyes perhaps warmer than before. Robin had been the one to change the most. Like Beast Boy, he had achieve his growth spurt reaching to around 6 foot in height. Regarding the Robin outfit as slightly young for his increased stature he had become Nightwing, remembering the Tale from Starfire's adventure to the future. His hair remained the same length and the old Robin mask remained in place for old time's sakes. To the Titans he was still Robin, since he had not tried to include them in the name change.
"Oh man, Star had better not have taken the T-Car out as punishment." Cyborg fumed upon noticing the empty garage. "The R-Cycle's gone as well." Robin noted, frowning slightly. "Look dudes, we can solve this later once we've found Star." Beast Boy said sensibly, his excitement infectious. Turning into a gorilla, he banged his chest before picking up most of the bags and lumbering over to the lift. Raven rolled her eyes before waving her hand – the rest of the bags were surrounded by black light before slowly floating in the air. "We might as well follow him – I'm not walking up the stairs."
"Woah. What the hell happened here?" Cyborg asked bewildered as he looked over the main room. The computers had been smashed to pieces and the windows were destroyed. The fridge was gone, as was the microwave, and the sofa looked like it had been sawn to bits. "Whoever Star got in a fight with certainly managed to reek havoc." Beast Boy said in awe. Dropping his stuff, Robin marched into the corridor, knocking on Starfire's door when he reached it. Raven unfolded from herself to appear next to him with Cyborg and Beast Boy, released from the darkness. "Starfire." He called through. "It's Robin." Hesitating he glanced at the surrounding Titans. "It's all of us. We're really sorry that we left but we got - " The door fell inwards, crashing down into the darkness. Robin stepped back. Switching on a light, Cyborg swept it over the empty room. There was nothing in it - no bed, no dressing table, no bookcase, nothing. "That was unexpected."
"I can't sense her anywhere in the tower. She might have moved into another room and is busy at the moment. There's no need to panic Robin." Raven frowned at him.
"What if something's happened to her? The Tower's a mess, the T-Car and R-Cycle are missing and everything in her room has just vanished." He leaned against the door frame. "We left her, here, by herself, with Slade possibly on the loose. Anything could have happened. What the hell was I thinking." He cried, throwing his hands up in the air.
"It's not just your fault here." Cyborg patted Robin on the shoulder. "We all agreed to go without telling her. We didn't really have a choice - those people were in danger and the transmission said they could only accomodate four of us. The fifth couldn't know because it would put whoever it was, and the operation in danger. It just so happened to be us."
Beast boy piped up. "Yeah. It's only been a few weeks anyway dude. Whoever did this, couldn't have gotten to far."
"We need to fix up this place and then search for Star. We should probably wear civilian clothing - we've been missing for a few weeks and we don't want to make anyone suspicious." Raven raised an eyebrow. "We don't really own civilian clothing. If you haven't remembered from the stress, we spend all our time in our uniforms."
"There has to be something Raven. Just...just go change, we'll fix up the front room and then we'll look. Alright?" Robin commanded. The others nodded before heading towards the front room, their luggage still scattered on the floor. Cyborg pulled out his holo rings and stuffed them on. Grasping around, he pulled out another set and chucked them at Beast Boy. "Yo, BB, give them a try and see if we can't turn you scrawny green ass white." He laughed, slamming the rings together. "My name's Stone. Victor Stone." Cyborg struck a pose. Pulling out a mirror, he held it up to Beast Boy who stuck out his tongue. "Dudes! I have blonde hair. How weird is that? And I'm normal. I'm flipping normal." He pulled on some jeans and a red, long sleeved polo shirt to cover up his outfit. Robin disappeared into the darkness with an outfit, while Raven, after rummaging through her suitcase, slipped on some black three quarter lengths, a green T-shirt and a black baker boy hat. "Starfire made me buy them." She said grumpily at the boy's surprised glances. Robin came out wearing some dark jeans, a white shirt, a leather jacket and sunglasses to replace the mask.
"It's a bit dark to be wearing sunglasses isn't it?" Cyborg said, his lips twitching. His only answer was a scowl, before Robin strode over to the kitchcen cupboards and rummaged through. "Looks like whoever did this took the dustpan and brush as well." He said bitterly. "Very thorough. When I get my hands on whoever did this..." He scowled over at the broken computers fiercely before a despondent look arrived on his face. "Come on." The others followed over him as he headed to the lift. "No point in trying to clean this up. We need to find Starfire." Once more, Robin's eyes became slits. "And once we find her, we are going to find the bastards who took her and make them pay."
No one was willing to disagree with him.
But they certainly weren't ready for what they got next.
