Sorry about the wait. I went about 3 different directions with this chapter before I published it.
Please R&R! Your reviews are really helpful!
Chapter 6-
Titans Tower was busy up until three am.
It had started with Speedy, but then slowly other Titans arrived. Lightning, Kole, Jericho, Ravager, Red Star, and Speedy were the only six to come.
Robin didn't understand why more couldn't come, but he didn't complain. Batman taught him that complaining gets him nowhere.
All ten Titans, besides Robin, took a seat on the sofa. Although this was a group that didn't see each other very often, no socializing took place. It was silent in the tower, besides the constant beep of Starfire's heart monitor.
Robin walked up to the front of the room and began his speech.
"As you all know, there have been four Titan deaths in the last two months. Originally, our plan was to individually determine who the killer is, but that obviously didn't work. The new plan is to work together to figure this out."
Slowly but surely, an applause came from the eight Titans in the audience. Some, like Speedy and Kole, stood up and started whistling, while others, like Raven and Cyborg, looked uncomfortable as they clapped.
Robin didn't understand why they were applauding him; it was a sad time and he didn't think his speech was that great. But then he realized something: They didn't know.
"There's something else I need to tell you," he said, silencing the audience. "There was another Titan targeted." Hushed laughter turned into whispers of fear as they asked each other who it could be.
It was Speedy who realized it first. He had always kinda liked the sweet little alien and had been looking for her. But one look at Robin, one of his best friends, and he knew what had happened.
Robin pushed back tears. "Last night, Starfire was shot in an old, abandoned warehouse. The murderer threw her, and her communicator over the side of a balcony. She currently under extensive medical care." He finished, looking down as he did.
Emotions ranging from sadness to anger to fear bounced around, everyone coping with their grief in different ways. Kole burst into tears. Ravager looked like she was ready to behead the first person who came near her.
Robin didn't do anything. He had spent the night grieving. He didn't need to have any more sadness.
He continued. "We were able to retrieve the security camera feed. We haven't seen it yet; we were waiting for you guys to get here."
He turned the video on, hoping for some clue to who hurt his friend.
How was it? I really want your reviews for ideas!
Please R&R!
Thanks!
