I want details.
Disclaimer: I still don't own Teen Titans, but I'll let you guys know if I ever do.
Climbing onto a chair Robin spoke loudly to the group of teenagers before him "Alright everyone, you won't do written reports but expect me to ask everyone here about what happened yesterday. I'll make my way around to each of you while all of you are cleaning up. Trash bags are under the sink, you can find the vacuum and broom in the closet along with any other cleaning supplies. Have fun."
Jumping down from the chair to address his immediate teammates.
"Look guys I can't quite remember what happened yesterday, and I already spoke to Starfire to see if she could remember and she can't. So can any of you guys tell me what happened?" he asked.
Raven was the first to speak out of the 3.
"I don't know. But whatever it is that you and Star are worried about stop it, you're giving me a headache."
With a faint blush dusting his face, Robin cleared his voice and spoke.
"Uhm sorry about that, why don't you go take a break from all the emotions. I'll call you if I need anything."
With a huff Raven left through a black portal to who knows where.
Turning to address the two other male titans. "Alright so Beastboy and Cyborg what about you guys?"
"Uh sorry dude I'm just as lost you are, but man we had a party and I can't remember? I'm supposed to be the party animal!" Beastboy cried while flailing his arms around.
"Look man even my built in cameras can't detect anything from yesterday. Its like someone hacked into my system and just cut the day out."
Letting out an aggravated sigh and running his hands through his hair, Robin just couldn't understand why none of them could remember what happened yesterday.
"Alight Cy, can you tell me what was the last thing you can remember before waking up this morning?"
"Oh ya I can tell you just let me go through my tapes and I can find out. I can also check the towers built in security camera's for anything."
Of course the towers security cameras. How could Robin forget that there are cameras on every floor, meaning that it could show him when and possibly why he woke up with Starfire in his room. But it also means that whatever happened Cyborg would see it when he checked the system.
Deciding it was better than nothing he spoke again.
"Alright you do that, and also check with the local news for anything that might help us figure out what happened yesterday. The rest of us will help clean up and see if anyone else
can recall anything."
With the final word given the four Titans set out to do their assigned jobs. But not before Beastboy spoke again.
"Oh c'mon Robin it barely 7 and we haven't eaten yet! I'm starving!"
Clearly annoyed at Beastboys comment Robin shook his head and went on to ask around if anyone knew about the day before.
Walking over the Mega computer, Robin grabbed a clipboard and a piece of paper from one of the shelves to write down everyone's name and information he can get from them.
Looking around he wrote down the name of every super powered hero in the room. Which was a lot, and some of them surprised him. For one he saw Batgirl with a black trash bag in one hand and picking up garbage from the floor with the other, all the while having a look of great displeasure. In another part he saw Pantha lifting the couch in the air while Kid Flash grabbed all the trash underneath, followed by Aqualad vacuuming.
Shaking his head he continued writing down the names of who he saw. So far on his list are Batgirl, Kid Flash, Speedy, Aqualad, Red X, Panth- wait a second. He stopped his writing to look at what he just wrote.
"Red X?" he whispered to himself. No that can't be right, Red X was-no is a criminal and shouldn't be in the tower at all. Looking up again to see if it was a mistake he soon found that he was wrong and what he wrote is in fact true.
There at one of the walls scrubbing off an odd brown gunk was Red X. His uniform disheveled and his mask partially up exposing his lower half of his face. Robin stared shocked at the partially masked thief, surprised that the features he saw looked like they belonged to someone no older than 15 at the most.
After his initial state of shock passed it was replaced with anger. Stalking over, Robin pulled out his grappling gun aiming it for Red X's torso to wrap around.
With a pull of the trigger the grappling gun fired off wrapping around Red X and bringing him to the floor. Reaching the confused villain Robin spoke.
"What are you doing here." he stated grabbing him with the collar.
"Well look who came to interrogate me. How's it going bird brain?" Red X replied smirking
"What are you doing here?" the Boy Wonder snarled.
Dropping the grin Red X spoke.
"Look I woke up this morning on the floor to your obnoxious bullhorn. I don't know why I'm here, but since you decided to trap everyone here I thought I might as well clean up, so you're welcome. 'Cause the sooner this place is clean the sooner I can leave." picking up the smirk again he continued. "But while I'm here I might as well poke around and check this place out. I've always wondered what the inside of your guys tower looked like. And to say I'm actually surprised I thought it'd be boring in here."
Not satisfied with his answer, Robin decided to drag the tied up Red X towards the door to get him into the interrogation room. Which was just a grey metal box with only two chairs and a plain steel table.
Walking the tied up criminal towards the interrogation room, Robin's mind swarmed with questions then before.
First I wake up and find that Starfire is in my room, next I walk into the common room to find it trashed, then I see Red X scrubbing the walls like its the most normal thing to do. All the while I can't remember damn thing and neither can my team. What the hell is going on?
Finally reaching the interrogation room, Robin pushed Red X onto a chair before pulling out his communicator to contact the rest of his team.
"Everyone to the interrogation room now."
Moments later Red X was surrounded by very angry Titans. Starfire's eyes were glowing an eerie green color, and had starbolts ready. Cyborg had his sonic cannon out, aiming for the criminals face. Beastboy transformed into a lion waiting to strike. Raven floated ominously above the floor with her hood over her face.
Chuckling Red X looked up to the fuming Titans.
"Well look who joined the party, it was getting pretty boring here with chuckles. Not much fun ya know." continuing on "Hey cutie you're looking great today. But all this grey is such a damper on your looks" he spoke directly towards Starfire.
Angered at his blatant flirting she responded.
"You will do the shutting up now."
Deciding to speak to his team, Robin walked forward from the wall he was at.
"Star, Cyborg I need you two to hold down X while I take his back. Make sure you don't let him move his arms or his hands."
"Now you're gonna have to take me to dinner before you start undressing me."
Scoffing Robin nodded to the metal man and princess, signaling for them to grab Red X.
Grabbing Red X from under the arms with one hand, they waited for Robin to cut the rope from around X's torso. Once Robin was finished cutting, Cyborg and Starfire grabbed Red X's wrist bringing them up and away from his body bringing him into a very awkward and uncomfortable position.
Realizing what they were doing Red X drew his attention to try and wiggle free by kicking his legs around. However this resulted in something constricting his legs together. Looking down, he saw Beastboy in the form of a snake coiled tightly around his legs, immobilizing him.
Seeing Red X struggle but unable to break free gave a sort of satisfaction to Robin.
"Nice try X, but you're not going anywhere unless we say so."
"Well it looks like you guys have finally caught on, I was beginning to think you guys were really that dumb to just keep putting handcuffs on me."
Even though he was caught and unable to move, Red X was somewhat pleases that the Titans finally learned their lesson. After a few years of this cat and mouse game he got tired of always escaping easily, he liked a bit of a challenge. It kept him on his toes.
Robin knowing that Red X's suit was powered with Xenothium, he undid the belt that held the powerful chemical and other sorts of weapons. He did not need for Red X to reach down to press a button transporting him away. But then again, here he was in the tower, when he could've pressed a button and be long gone. Though Robin was not going to take any chances.
After removing the belt, Robin walked out of the room to place it out and away from the criminals' hands.
Walking back to the interrogation room, Robin pulled out a pair of handcuffs to place on Red X.
"Alright guys turn him around please."
"Sure thing man" Cyborg said. Motioning to Star, they both turned giving access to Robin.
Pulling out the handcuffs from his own utility belt, he placed the cool metal around the criminals wrist enabling him from moving his arms. Finished he spoke to his two teammates once more.
"Okay, you guys can set him down."
Going to sit across the table, Robin dismissed his team to the outside room to watch over and record whatever Red X had to say. Clearing his throat he spoke.
"Okay, since you can't remember anything from yester-"
"Hey I never said I can't recall everything from yesterday, I can remember little bits and pieces. Granted its a little fuzzy, but its still something." the criminal replied cutting Robin off.
Slightly annoyed that he was cut of, Robin spoke again.
"If thats the case, why didn't you say that earlier?"
Red X smirked at Robins reactions, he just loved to ruffle the little birds feathers.
"Well you asked about how I got into your lovely tower and why I was in your tower. Not if I remember everything from yesterday."
"If thats the case, start explaining."
Leaning back in his chair Red X spoke once more.
"Can I get some water first before I start? I'm gonna need it if I'm telling a story."
Wow, that was a longer chapter then what I'm used to. But it's okay I don't mind that much, and I'm sure you guys don't either. But Red X, was that a surprise? *click* or Nah? What does he remember, how does he remember? Stay tuned to find out. Like always leave a comment, review, question, or whatever.
