When BeastBoy woke up it was just turning midnight. He looked out his window into the star filled sky. He yawned, looking out across the still, moonlit water when suddenly, his ears pricked up. They twitched for a moment and BeastBoy thought that he could hear footsteps. He walked silently over to the other side of the room, past sock mountain and the now un-edible pizza slice and put his left ear up to the door. He could definitely hear footsteps, and they were coming closer. He decided he would jump out and tackle whoever was there. He knew he would be taking a major risk though because he was pretty sure Raven wouldn't take very well to being jumped on in the middle of the night, but if it wasn't Raven, he could be saving them from burglary.
He could hear that the footsteps were almost at his door. He didn't have time to worry about Raven getting pissed. He stood back from his door and waited for the right moment, listening for when the footsteps were just outside his door. Then, he pounced, turning into a tiger mid-air. Thankfully the door opened just in time and he landed on top of the intruder with a loud 'THUD!'
They both fell to the ground and BeastBoy pinned down the young man, waiting for the others to come running and see his triumphant win over their intruder. Afton was first out of her room. She came running down the hall after hearing all the commotion. She was at BeastBoys side minutes before other doors began to open. Once all of the titans were there, Cyborg switched on the lights and the hall illuminated at once to reveal a frightened looking young man. He looked about seventeen, but he did not look like the typical house burglar. He had scruffy ginger hair and eyes as blue as aquamarine.
He was wearing a black hoodie and ripped, black jeans with a dark blue belt and a pair of Vans DD-66 skate shoes, the exact same pair BeastBoy had ordered just a few days ago. Afton placed a hand on his shoulder, and he jumped of the intruder while switching back into his human form. The young man scrambled back against the wall pulling his bag up close to his chest. He began muttering something under his breath, eyes flickering around the room and eventually coming to set on BeastBoy.
He smiled and jumped up, running towards him with open arms shouting
'vriend garfield! Ek het julle uiteindelik gevind!'
BeastBoy looked just as confused as the next person, but he wasn't just going to stand there while a stranger hugged him and shouted things in a language he didn't understand. So he did what any respectable man would do. He took one step to the right and hid behind his girlfriend.
