Beast Boy sat by the ocean and thought of Raven…
He could still remember her, how Cinderblock threw her out of the air, the bars, her screams, and her tears…nothing he could say or do would bring her back. And to him it seemed every one got over it all to quickly.
"BB?" Cyborg's deep voice came to him. He walked over to the broken Beast Boy. "Hey Cy." Beast Boy responded.
"How you holding up?" He asked as he sat down beside him.
"Raven…I-I never got to tell her how sorry I was, how much I-I…"
"Loved her?" Cyborg finished it for him; it was too hard for BB.
"Yeah…" He looked into the water.
"Every where I look, all I see is her…and in my dreams I can feel her, I can see and touch her. It just isn't fair it's like she's still taunting me." He held his heart and breathed in deeply to stop from crying.
"Yeah, I know what mean." Cyborg looked away from, trying not to cry himself. "But you gotta think of the good times you had with her. She's gone physically but she's still here, in there." Cyborg pointed to Beast Boy's heart.
A long silence dragged between them…the ocean waves crashed into the rocks under them. Birds chirped and cars were honking from the bridge that wasn't to far away from them. That was the only noise that gave off. Just about as Beast Boy was going to say something Starfire came.
"Friends, Robin requires a meeting." She called to them from the sky.
Inside the tower Robin told everyone to sit on the couch, they sat in their usual places and looked to their right and saw no Raven. Then they frowned in sadness.
"As you all know, Raven is gone and it has placed a damper on the team, so I have decided as the team leader…we're bringing in a new recruit."
"WHAT!" Beast Boy was shocked and stunned about this term of action.
"Uh, Mister leader! Didn't you think about asking us first before deciding on this?" Beast Boy stood up to the tall masked hero.
"I think it's for the best Beast Boy." He looked at him, beast boy's eyes were steady, and hot…almost evil.
"Well I don't like it. This new person is just going to replace her. Like that!" he snapped his fingers. Robin just looked at him. He knew it was hard; it was hard on all of them. And Beast Boy's words hurt like knives.
"She was one of my good friends. I would never replace her…no one can claim what she has given us. However we need to fix our team, Raven was a strong point in this team and now with her gone…we're weak."
Beast Boy was holding in his anger. He clenched his fists and required the feeling to punch a hole in Robin's face.
"Is that all you care about? The team?" Beast Boy held his head low. His clutched fist was getting tighter.
Robin didn't know what to say to him. He tried to get through to him, but nothing seemed to get through Beast Boy's thought that they all didn't miss Raven.
"No…Raven was a good friend of mine, she and I shared a bond. Just like you and her."
"BAM!" A punch came from Beast Boy's powerful fist. Robin didn't expect it coming.
"ROBIN!" Starfire went to comfort Robin who fell on the floor. Beast Boy just starred into his cold mask.
"YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT "BOND" THAT I HAD WITH HER! SHE WAS MORE THAN A FRIEND TO ME! SHE-SHE…" he stopped, he fell to his knees. He covered his face with hands and cried into them. He moved closer to the ground to where he was laying on the ground. He rocked himself back and forth…
"R-Robin, I'm so sorry." He said, his hands over his mouth so it barely came out. "I-I just don't want to someone new coming and taking her place…I won't be able to handle it."
Cyborg placed his hand on Beast Boy's shoulder. He gave him a smile; a comfort smile that eased him a little bit.
"It's okay man, like I told you…She's still here." He smiled again.
"We all still miss her. We will not forget her." Starfire still held Robin in her arms.
"Beast Boy, this is for the best." Robin finally came out and said, a little bit of blood dripped from the corner of his mouth.
Beast Boy just looked away from them and nodded.
"It's…for the best." He said sadly.
