A/N: I am so sorry dear readers! I know this update is late, but it has two POVs. I would like to take this time to thank all of those who reviewed again – Darkflames And Fire and Numbuh13- those who just reviewed-Ravenalterego (Guest), Chemical Teardrop (you guys should read her story it's really cute), and Victory4Zim- and of course all of those who just favorite/follow- FelynxTiger, Mysticfalls2357, Gabrielus Prime, NobodyWriterXIII, WinnieCocoaFlip, Is-Something-Still-Scaring-You, The Hotpocket Hunter, Chemical Teardrop, and Ashlyna27. Thanks Guys! I apologize for any mistakes or for getting Robin's POV a little wrong. They are getting off the plane this chapter but the next chapter might be longer because it's a little drama with the fight between the Teen Titans and Mumbo. If you guys want I can make that a dual perspective too. Just put who you guys want plus BB's POV. Now please read and review. All advice is accepted. Enjoy!

Robin's POV
"Beast Boy. Beast Boy!" Robin yelled through the airplane's little bathroom door. The team was home and Beast Boy still didn't come out of the bathroom. He knew Beast Boy needed time alone. When he asked if he was okay Beast Boy responded in pain, but insisted in his tone that he wanted to be alone. So Robin left him alone. Now the changeling seemed to refuse to come out of the bathroom. He saw a stewardess checking the plane and decided to ask her for help. "Excuse me miss, is there a way to unlock the bathroom from the outside. My friend doesn't want to come out even though we landed," he said with a charming little laugh and smile that he saved for the ladies as Dick Grayson.
"Ah, of course!" the woman stammered as she stared at Robin. A dark red blush appeared on her checks as she came over with the bathroom key. Her eyes were always looking somewhere but his face. He knew that she was new and would probably be easier to deal with. She opened the door and they saw Beast Boy sleeping on the floor of the bathroom shivering and whimpering.
"Thank you so much mam! I'm terribly sorry to bother you," Robin said with a more nervous charming smile. The woman still stared at Beast Boy as he kept whimpering and shivering. Part of him was embarrassed of how they found Beast Boy, but most of him was concerned for Beast Boy. Robin cleared his throat to get the woman's attention.
"Oh, of course! I'll just go…." The woman looked at Robin nervously and then back at Beast Boy. She looked at Beast Boy with Pity. Robin knew that if Beast Boy was a wake he would be mad that someone pitied him. He always had a great dislike for pity and Robin didn't know why. Actually at of all his teammates Robin knew less about Beast Boy than he did anyone else (even out of the honorary Titans). Of course he knew Beast Boy's personality (though he did doubt it from time to time) but not his past. While Robin was in his thoughts the woman left leaving Beast Boy and Robin alone. Robin didn't know how to wake Beast boy but the shivering and whimpering got worst. Robin knew he had to wake Beast Boy up.
"Beast Boy!" Robin yelled in his leader voice.
"I didn't do it!" Beast Boy jumped up and leaned into the wall, his eyes anxiously scanning his surroundings. Robin leaned back a bit in surprise. He didn't expect Beast Boy to react like that. Then Robin looked at beast Boy inquisitively, his detective side taking over. Robin knew that Best Boy was a hero but why did he look so guilty?
"Didn't do what?" Robin asked when he saw that Beast Boy's attention was on him.
"I uhhhh, didn't put tofu in Cyborg's suitcase," Beast Boy laughed nervously, rubbing his hand on the back of his neck. His eyes never meeting Robin's and on the floor like a dog being reprimanded. Robin knew that Beast Boy wasn't all fun and games. But lately Beast Boy has been going slightly overboard with all the jokes and pranks. His jokes were cheesier, his pranks were happening more than twice a week, and now he wanted a vacation trip (not to say that it wasn't needed).
"Beast Boy, are you okay?" Robin asked with concern.
"I'm fine. Why do you ask?" Beast Boy asked with surprise. Robin knew he acted like the all-mighty leader most of the time but he was his teammates' friend as well. So it kind of hurt when Beast Boy questioned his motives of asking about his friend.
"You just seem a little…. funnier than usual," Robin said cautiously, forgetting his temporary pain. Beast Boy looked at Robin for a second in confusion until an ear-to-ear grin came on his face.
"You think I'm funny! Yes!" Beast Boy yelled enthusiastically. He did a stupid looking victory dance, which only made Robin angrier.
"You know, that's not what I meant," Robin snarled. Beast Boy stopped his dance and looked at Robin, Beast Boy's grin faltering slightly.
"You're right I do, but we're always right anyway. Right Robin?" Beast Boy asked in mock sarcasm. This infuriated Robin. Not only was he throwing his concern back at him he told Robin "to stay out of my business you prideful jerk"- theoretically. If Beast Boy wanted Robin out of his business then Robin was out.
"Yeah that's right. Now let's go we've been waiting for you to go home. If you're not ready in two minutes, we're leaving you here." Robin ordered.
"Yes sir," Beast Boy replied with a stupid grin. Robin turned around mumbling about how stupid and selfish green people were. If Beast Boy wanted to act like everything was fine, Robin would do the same.
Beast Boy's POV- A little before the scene above
"Freak!" Garfield flinched as he heard the big man's voice. Carl was a large with dense muscles, a crooked nose and a little bit of a beer gut. He liked to drink a lot and he was an angry drunk, towards Garfield. Max would watch as Carl "toughened up" Garfield a bit then calm Carl down so he wouldn't hurt Garfield too much. But today Max was out with his girlfriend and Carl and Garfield were alone. "Freak you better come out here right now before I come and get you myself!" Carl snarled as he came down the stairs to Garfield's "room." His "room" was the basement teeming with things that Carl and Max forced Beast Boy to steal by burning/electrocuting him (Carl's method) or beat him (Max's method). But Garfield's space was in the back basement on the right side. It had a cage (which he had to be in at all times), two doggy bowls, and a blanket. Garfield hid further in his cage. If Carl didn't find him right away the pain would start later. He was so wrong.
Carl came in front of Garfield's cage and sneered at him. "Come here freak!" Carl grabbed Garfield's collar and dragged him out of the cage. Carl threw Garfield at the wall. "Where the heck is my beer, freak?!" Carl roared. Garfield trembled not being able to answer in pure fear of the man, but this just made Carl angrier.
"If you don't tell me where my beer is freak I'll make you pay!" Carl screamed each word at Garfield as Carl kicked him. A kick or two for each word. Garfield tried to protect himself, but what can an 8 year old do against someone that's 30 something. So he opened his mouth and screamed…
"I didn't do it!" Beast Boy jumped off the floor. He leaned toward the wall, giving him a minute to relax. The memory dream took a toll on him. Beast Boy was ready to fight out of survival- a pure hunter. He looked around to recall his surroundings and calm down his instincts. He saw the weird looking toilet and remembered that he was in the bathroom in the airplane. He remembered seeing a traffic light in front of him. When he looked it was just Robin, eyeing him suspiciously.
"Didn't do what?" Robin asked with suspicion.
"I uhhhh, didn't put tofu in Cyborg's suitcase." That was the first thing that came into Beast Boy's mind that sounded like something his mask would say.
"Beast Boy, are you okay?" Robin asked with concern. This surprised Beast Boy. He knew Robin cared for them as friends but what would tick off Robin that he wasn't okay (which he wasn't but the others didn't need to worry about him – they have enough problems themselves as it is).
"I'm fine. Why do you ask?"
"You just seem a little…. funnier than usual," Robin said cautiously. That's what ticked him off, Beast Boy thought. Beast Boy knew he might've went a little overboard with his mask things after the Brain battle but he had to do it. It reassured him that everything was changing but normal. He needed a constant in his life to hold onto. The mask was the first thing he thought of.
"You think I'm funny! Yes!" Beast Boy yelled enthusiastically. He did a stupid looking victory dance, which only made Robin angrier. Beast Boy knew this made Robin angry but he definitely wasn't ready to tell Robin, his leader, the truth.
"You know, that's not what I meant," Robin snarled. Beast Boy stopped dancing. When Robin snarled he was infuriated which scared Beast Boy. Not just because he could feel the Beast want to run (when Robin is angry he's like Batman cold and calculating with yells here and there- this would scare any animal) but he could see the determination in Robin's eyes to find out what was wrong with Beast Boy (Robin became determined in a way that was obsessive and aggressive).
"You're right I do, but we're always right anyway. Right Robin?" Beast Boy knew the only way to get Robin off his back was to get him angrier, with disrespect. Of course Beast Boy didn't disrespect Robin, Robin just got too nosy. Beast Boy saw that the comment did its job, Robin was furious.
"Yeah that's right. Now let's go we've been waiting for you to go home. If you're not ready in two minutes, we're leaving you here." Robin ordered sternly.
"Yes sir," Beast Boy replied with a stupid grin. Beast Boy put the mask back on, which enraged Robin more. Robin turned around mumbling about how stupid and selfish green people were.
"You forgot one thing Robin, I'm pathetic too," Beast Boy whispered knowing that no one would be able to hear him. Nobody usual did. Beast Boy walked off the plane mask ready and on and went to the closest thing he had that was home.
