Vindicated

Chapter 4

 

 

Sorry that I haven't written in a while; it's just that Em and I have been having so much fun together and it has been hard to find time to write so here is a recap of everything that has happened since last time. Well, Em and I were having a great time when I decided that she was well enough to go home. She really didn't like the idea and asked if she could stay in Titan's Tower with me. I told her that I would have to ask Robin about it when I realized that I had not actually introduced them to each other. Kind of funny really. I mean she had been living in the tower for almost a week and no one had noticed her. So I thought it was very important that I tell everyone about her, besides I couldn't wait to have her tell the others some of her killer jokes.

 

So on the day that I was gonna bring her out Robin called a big meeting about a threat to the city. And this is where we are now.

 

So I told Em to wait outside the room while Robin discusses his thing and I'll call her in after the meeting.

 

She looked at me with those big green eyes and said, “You can do whatever you want to BB, just don't forget about me ok.”

 

“You don't have to worry about that Em. I don't think I will ever be able to forget about you.”

 

I then walked into the living room where everyone was waiting for me. They had hardly seen me at all over the last week so I wasn't surprised when Starfire flew off of the couch and put me into a bear hug.

 

“Friend Beast Boy I have not seen you much this Earth week. I have missed you. Where have you been?”

 

Robin chimed in right after, “Yeah Beast Boy, what has been going on with you. It isn't like you to be so reclusive. Is everything all right?”

 

“Don't worry about it Robin, in fact I want to talk to all of you about that after the meeting.”

 

Everyone looked interested in what I had to say so Robin picked up on what he had to say.

 

“Ok everybody, I'm sure all of you have noticed how slow crime has been in the last month. I was beginning to wonder what was going on and so I called in a few favors from my underground contacts and came up with that following information. Something big is going down. All of the rival gangs have called a temporary cease fire and all of the villains have taken out of town. I don't know what is happening but we can assume that there is a big plan about go down. I thought I would check illegal arms sales I the last 2 months and noticed a significant drop in sales so we can assume that the force we will be up against will be a small on and most likely unarmed. That worries me more then if it were an invasion army. We will be dealing with a big and bad villain this time so I want everyone to be training for it, I'll be keeping an eye out for any suspicious activity and want all of you to do the same. With no crime we can tap the police force for extra help, but when the shit goes down I don't want them involved. We need as few casualties as possible.”

 

Everyone was listening attentively when Cyborg asked his question, “Does it really look that bed, I mean should we really be preparing for casualties already when we don't know what is going down?”

 

“Normally I would agree with you, but in this case we can assume that this threat is not only a danger to us but everyone in the city. Otherwise why would all of the villains be skipping town. They probably know what is happening and are going to run somewhere safe. I'm not saying that something will definitely go down; right now we don't know enough. However, we do know that the climate is ripe for something huge to go down.”

 

Everyone went eerily silent for a few minutes while all of the information sunk in. I decided that it was time to get my word in, “well I'm sure we will be able to handle any thing that comes our way right? All we have to do is try our hardest and everything will turn out ok.”

 

Raven, who had been silent up until now actually said something in agreement with me. “Beast Boy is right. All we can do is our best, and if that is not good enough then there is no shame in it. We can't give up now though.”

 

Everyone went silent for another second before Robin spoke up again, “Ok team, I have nothing further to say so Beast Boy, let's hear your news.”

 

“Ok, the other day I went out and rescued a girl in the park and she was injured so I brought her to the infirmary. Well, we have been getting along great and I wanted to introduce you to her. Hey Em, could you come on in here?”

 

Emerald opened the door and walked in immediately crowding my left arm. I guess she was a little scared to be meeting new people, and that can be a little expected I suppose. “Ok Emerald, this is Robin, Raven, Cyborg and Starfire. Guys this is Emerald.”

 

She timidly stepped forward and said hello to everyone and everyone did the same except Raven and Starfire. Raven just stood there looking her over simply giving her a “hey” and Starfire charged at her squeezing the life out of her in a big bear hug screaming about “going to the mall of shopping for skin ornaments” or something like that.

 

After Starfire and Em left to go to the mall, Robin and Raven took me aside and told me that they need to talk to me right away. They wanted me to meet them in Robin's office. I had only actually been there once and I was a little intimidated, but I had to go anyway so I head up to the floor above the living quarters and walked down the long corridor to the set of double titanium reinforced door that contained of Robin's crime files and equipment. I couldn't help but notice how ominous all of this actually is when taken in. It almost made me want to turn around and run. The hell with Robin and Raven; what do I have to do what they say anyway? No Beast Boy wait, you have an obligation to the team. You may not want to, but you have to. So I took one last step to ward the door and reached out to grasp the door knob.
