Hey, everybody. For the past few months, I've been through a lot of crap. However, I finally have the time and energy to do it. Here is the sequel to "Tear Down The Wall!" This is the very first time I've ever done a sequel, so please be merciful if I didn't do too much of a job on this baby. Hope you all enjoy this fic!
"Robin? Oh Rooooooobin. Where could he be?" Starfire glided down the hallways of Titans Tower, searching every room she could in search of her best friend. Starfire knew that Robin was somewhere in the Tower, knowing the fact that the R-Cycle was still nicely parked in the garage. After searching 20 stories, Starfire felt there was only one person who could help her out: Raven.
Starfire landed nicely onto the floor and politely knocked on Raven's door. Raven opened the door, drying her hair and wearing only a short black robe that reaches halfway down her silky-smooth thighs.
"Morning, Starfire. What are you doing up so early?"
"Oh, friend Raven! I can't find Robin anywhere! I have only two tickets to Six Flags, and I was going to take him there. Have you seen him anywhere, Raven?"
"Sorry, Star, but I haven't seen him around at all. Maybe you should check down the main lounge."
"Perhaps I should. It's been three months since our battle with Darkseid, and Robin has been acting… strange lately. Perhaps- wait a minute…"
Starfire took a whiff of the air.
"That scent."
"… Come again?"
"That… that scent. Robin's scent is coming from your room."
Raven started to feel a chill spiral down her spine.
"W-what do you mean?"
"I can smell Robin's scent from your room, Raven. That only means one thing…"
(… Oh no…) Raven thought to herself. Starfire's face brightened up even more.
"That means Robin's playing HIDE AND SEEK!" Raven's jaw dropped in disbelief. Star floated past Raven and entered her friend's quarters.
"Ready or not, Robin, here I COME!" Starfire searched through Raven's closet, then her bathroom. There was only one place left: under the bed! Just when she was about to look under Raven's bed, Raven grabbed Starfire by the ankle and pulled the floating Tameranian back to the door.
"Look, Star. I don't have time for this. Okay, I'll be straight with you. Robin WAS in my room to borrow a book from me. I need to get dressed, and if there's one thing I can't stand the thought of, it's one of the boys checking me out in my teeny weeny little robe! Now let me DRESS UP!" After pulling Starfire out of her room, Raven stomped her way back in.
"But what about Ro-" With one push of a button, Raven shut the door right into Starfire's face. Seeing Star disappointedly float away through her peephole, Raven slumped into the wall and let out a breath of relief.
"It's okay. She's gone." Hearing her words, Robin, half-naked, crawled halfway out from underneath Raven's bed, mask intact. Raven couldn't help but giggle.
"Oh, man. I thought we were gonna get caught for sure!" Robin crawled out of Raven's bed, wearing only a towel around his waist. Raven gave Robin sly eyes and slowly licked her lips when she checked out her love's physique. Robin smiled and let out a breath, unable to take his eyes away from Raven and how little she was wearing.
"C'mere…" Raven got a firm hold on Robin's towel and pulled him closer to her, hoping the towel would come off. Raven wrapped her arms around Robin's body and rested her head on his chiseled pecs. Robin took in Raven's fresh scent, feeling her silky hair brush up against his face. Smiling, Robin wrapped his arms around her waist. Their eyes lock in on each other.
"I can't believe it's been three months since we made love for the first time. I can still remember some of the details from that very night…"
"… Let me refresh your memory, Raven…"
"… You're such an animal, Robin. I like that…" The two Titans closed their eyes and kissed. Their moist lips press softly against each other, savoring every drop of each other's taste.
Robin disappointedly broke away from Raven's personal contact.
"Raven… I have to get back to my room. It's… it's time."
"… I understand. Just be careful, okay?" Raven asked, caressing Robin's face with her hand.
"I'll be fine. Don't worry about a thing. I'll be fine…"
Struck with disappointment, Starfire floated sadly into the main lounge. No Robin anywhere in sight. Suddenly, dance music popped right into Starfire's ears. Star quickly looked up to see Beast Boy playing his most favorite game yet: Dance Dance Revolution Ultra Mega Mix! The song that started blasting away was "Robot Rock" from Daft Punk.
Starfire noticed a major change in Beast Boy as well. Not only did he grow a few inches taller during the last few months, but he also packed in a lot more muscle! Starfire couldn't help but watch the changeling groove on the dance mat.
Finally, Beast Boy was done with the song. Beast Boy opened a large bottle of water and drank it all down. When Starfire started clapping, Beast Boy turned to see his dance partner from the J.L. victory party.
"Morning, Starfire."
"Good morning, friend Beast Boy."
"Hey, what's the matter? You look as though Silky ran away from the Tower or something."
"No. I can't find Robin anywhere in the Tower. I only have two tickets to Six Flags, and Robin's nowhere to be found. I was really hoping to take him to the amusement park and check out the latest rides."
"Hey, I got an idea. I'LL go with you!"
"Really? Oh, Beast Boy! You're such a wonderful friend!" Starfire dashed to Beast Boy and gave him a big hug. The changeling couldn't help but blush when he felt their bodies connect. Just when Beast Boy was about to hug her back, Starfire let go of her green friend and slumped into the couch. Beast Boy sat by her side.
"I never seen you this worried before, Star. Talk to me."
"Well… it's about Robin and Raven. Those two have been acting very… peculiar," Starfire said. Beast Boy looked down to the floor.
"I know whatcha mean, Star. Raven's yang went up by threefold when we came back from the Watch Tower months ago, especially when Robin's around! I mean, last night I caught her and Cyborg fighting over the remote control!"
"I thought she was only fond of reading. Maybe she wanted to watch the Discovery Channel."
"She demanded to watch The Howard Stern Show."
Starfire's eyes widen in disbelief.
"… Oh my. That is quite disturbing. Robin has changed as well. He rarely ever leaves his room, he's been much quieter than usual, and he even… he…"
"Go on. Say it, Star."
"He even likes having HERBAL TEA!"
"… Raven's the only one who can handle that stuff. What the heck's going-"
"HEY, Y'ALL! Good to see you up and at 'em." The Tameranian and the changeling turned their attention to the newcomer: Cyborg, carrying a very hefty floor pad. Cyborg carried it with ease on his shoulder and slammed it right next to Beast Boy's dance pad. With a smirk on his face, Cyborg plugged it into the PS2.
"B.B., now I'm ready to TAKE YOU DOWN! This dance pad is made out of Metallo-Titanium alloy so it can handle my groove, unlike the last dance pad we had. Prepare to be dethroned…" Wearing a grin, Beast Boy slowly got up from his sofa and did a little stretching.
"I'm always up for a challenge, metal man. Bring it on…"
"Good luck, Beast Boy."
"Thanks, Star. Soon after this is over, we're off to Six Flags." Beast Boy said, giving her a wink. When the two boys got on their dance pads, Star couldn't help but smile to herself, eager to watch Beast Boy get his groove on.
Suddenly, the alarm went off. Red lights were flashing and sirens wailed throughout Titans Tower. Seconds later, Raven teleported through the ceiling and joined her comrades.
"WE GOT TROUBLE, BOYS AND GIRL! All that can wait. Johnny Rancid is causing major mayhem at the ANIME CONVENTION! We gotta get moving! TITANS! GO!" Raven shouted. Raven dashed for the door, but the other three couldn't help but stare at her.
"Well? What are you guys waiting for, an INVITATION?" Raven asked fiercely.
"Uh… isn't that what Robin's suppose to say?" Beast Boy asked.
"No time for that. Let's go!" Cyborg said. The four Titans headed to the hangar bay.
"Raven! WHERE THE HELL IS ROBIN?" Cyborg asked.
"… He'll be with us in time. Don't worry. I told him where our rendezvous point is. He'll be there in time for the party!" Raven announced.
The door to Robin's room slowly opened, letting out a huge mist of frost. Blue eyes pierced through the darkness. Robin emerged out of the darkness and through the frost, donning only one color: black. Not a hint of red or green. The only parts of his new outfit that were yellow were the inside of his cape and a very wicked "R" on his chest. With a cool attitude, Robin cracked his neck. A moment later, his eyes returned to normal.
"… I'm comin' for ya, Johnny. I'm comin' for ya…" In an instant, Robin flung his cape over himself, allowing dark magic to consume him and have him sink into the shadows.
… to be continued.
