April pains day

Say somthing

The light blue cloudless sky had started to darken,dark clouds had appeared and had covered the would like a blanket, Dick Grason,not Robin,not now,was walking towards a bus stop,he stopped for a moment and looked up to the sky,a single raindrop fell and landed in the palm of his hands he watched it as it disappeared by falling from his hand onto the floor,something else lost,taken away by falling ,and again he could of stopped it,before he got lost his own would more rain fell,he put up his hood and walked towards a flower shop.
*********************
He walked out with two bouquets of flowers,they were both identical,red roses,white lily's and pink tulips,they were simple but beautiful,his mum or Mami as he called her always liked simple.

"Happy Mother's Day Mary"John Grayson said to his wife while holding his young sons hand
"give her the flowers Dick"he said while pushing his son gently forward,he handed over the flowers and smiled
"it's beautiful and simple"she said and kissed her young sons forehead "I've always loved simple beauty".

The vibrating of his civilian phone pushed the thought out of his mind,it was Barbra,his civilian best friend since they met and a very close hero friend,she had become batgirl a while before he left for Jump City.
"Hi Babs"he said with fake cheer
"Dick,are you okay?"
"I'm fine,how are you?"He said trying to get to another subject
"I ment about today,are you okay?"
There was no answer
"Dick?Dick are you still there?
Still no answer
"Dick?"
again silence
"Please just say something!Please,I'm worried about you."
"Call ended"the phone announced.
"Just...say something"Barbra said to herself
****************
Dick got on the bus and sat at the back,alone,he put his head against the cold glass window and watched the rain poor down it was so heavy it was like the sky was crying,crying with him.
                                                                              *****************
Raven was sat on the sofa next to Starfire,they were all trying to think of reasons why Robin had been so sad,Cyborge and Beastboy had gone too see if there was anything in Robins room that might explain things,they came out of his room with a red shoe box,"should we open it?"Beastboy asked Raven,she nodded,Cyborg opened it,he took out a small toy elephant and passed it to Beastboy,a note and passed it to Starfire and a scrapbook to Raven.Starfire read the note aloud
"Happy birthday our little robin,This elephant is from a far away land and the bright colours on it will protect you from the dark,He's called peanut,Love your Mami and Tati"she said and passed the note to Beastboy,he looked at the note and then to the toy elephant he was holding"so...this must be 'Peanut' and Robin must be a nickname,but what does Mami and Tati mean?"everyone looked at Starfire "I do not know." she said sadly,she only learned American because it was the language he was speaking at the time,so they were left in the dark once again...
******************
The bus ride from Jump city to Gotham was long,the rain continued to fall and the once blue sky was now grey,everything always seemed to be dark on this day,his thoughts,the sky and the feeling from deep inside his heart.Dick Grayson,a flying Grayson,the youngest flying Grayson and the last flying Grayson,walked slowly toward the graveyard,to the graves of the other flying Graysons,or as they were now called the falling Graysons.
********************
Google translate was the answer,it's helps with other things besides French homework,who knew?,"Mami and Tati it means Mummy and Daddy in...... Romanian?"Cyborg said "I thought Robin was American?"Beastboy stated "when I looked into his mind I saw things...American wasn't his first language that's why that's in Romanian and Starfires American is a bit off"Raven said,then she looked like she'd seen death"I know why he's so sad""friend Raven why?"Starfire asked"the flying Graysons"
*********************
Raven searched up the flying Grasons on the Titans super computer and got a video up,when there was a knock at the door,Beastboy answered it,Speedy and Kid flash were there"where's Robin?"they said in unison,they clearly knew something was up,but how?"we don't know."Raven said bluntly"we've known Robin for a long time,a lot longer than you lot put together"Speedy said"so we know if you're going to watch that video then be prepared"Kid Flash finished his friend or brothers sentence,the troublesome trio saw each other as family,only Raven knew what they ment by 'that video' because she'd seen it,but through Robins eyes,that only made it more horrific,she almost felt guilty showing her team it.

Bright lights were shining throughout a tent ,a circus tent ,a ringmaster with a thick black moustache and a classic red ringmasters uniform stood in the centre of the tent,spotlight shining on him,
"Lady's and Gentlemen,boys and girls,children of all ages!I present to you the fearless flying Grasons as always preforming their daring feats without the safety of a net!"he exclaimed,the camera turned up to see the trapeze,three acrobats were clearly seen,two on the left and one who was much smaller on the right.

Speedy,kid Flash and Raven all looked away,none of them wanted to see this more than once,even thought they knew that every day Robin had to see it,Beastboy and Cyborg looked even more confused than Starfire"hey I saw these people on the news"Cyborg said "yeah me too there the only people who can do a quadruple flip without a net"Beastboy replied "were"Speedy corrected.

The acrobats started twisting in ways that seemed impossible,they moved with so much grace,like they were flying,the name 'the flying Graysons' fit perfectly,the camera zoomed in to the smallest,he had sky blue eyes,raven black hair and looked about eight at the most,he stepped forward ready to jump when he looked up at the wires,eyes filled with fear he started screaming"there snapping!there snapping!"with desperation...and then the wires snapped,people started screaming and the acrobats had looks of pure terror,looking at the child that was clearly there son,the camera zoomed in on the child who was trying to reach out to the acrobats but not reaching,a thud was heard and more screaming,the man in front of the camera got up and started clapping,then the image went black.

"That's horrible"Beastboy said going pail,Starfire had tears in his eyes and was hugging Raven,who like Speedy and Kid Flash had their eyes tightly closed,Cyborg looked like he was about to be sick and put his hand on Beastboys shoulder,

the boy was Robin.
But the worst part was that,date matched,today was the anniversary of his pairings death.
