Rachel lying on the bed reading a book but Gar is in a mood due to Dick going off by his own again in fear of hurting his team mates.
"Titans is all I wanna be but this.. this isn't a team thing anymore.. this is a dick Grayson thing and we're just..what? Supposed to be okay with this? Day after day?" Gar complaining
Rachel lifts her eyes from her book to Gar turning a light green. "Um gar?"
"Well, not me! I'm a team player, but I'm tired of this!" Gar continues on
"Gar??.." Raven continues
"I feel I can be strong for so long til I just BURST!" Gar growls
"Gar!" Rachel shouts. "Look at you! You're green."
Gar looks down at his hands to see his claws and arms green. He sighs in a growl.
Rachel gets up and walks over to him. "Come here.." she holds him. "You have every right to feel this way. Dick isn't being rational nor is he being fair."
He slowly turns back into his original self. He rests her head on hers while she held him.
"I just feel we're not being treated like people in his eyes.. like.. maybe we're more his subordinates.. and I know.. we're a family.. just doesn't always feel that way. " Gar sighs
*knock knock* rose comes in
"Hey. Sorry, Dick's here. He says he needs to talk to everyone."
"Of course he does." Gar mocks. "Well, that makes both of us." Gar walks off and Rose steps back clearly seeing hes angry enough to walk through her.
"Gar!" Rachel raises her voice
"What is his deal?" Rose asks Rachel.
"Dick. Beginning to wonder if we're a team or is this a dictatorship.." Rachel sighs.
In the security room
"I located our guy. He's close to the city's bridge. I was thinking Rose, you and Gar take this exit-" Dick sharing his plan
"Do you?" Gar asked cocking his brow
Dick paused confused. "Is there a problem with that?"
"The problem isn't the plan." Gar crosses his arms
"Gar please." Rachel whispered
"What the hell is going on?" Dick stands up
"What's going on is that time after time you don't seem to realize, Dick, is that we're a team. We think as a team. Work as a team. That is unless you want go alone, then we're supposed to be good little girls and boys til you say so?" Gar smarts off
"Gar." Kory concerned
"Look, Gar. I understand but if we don't stick together through this-" Dick tries to explain
"We'll fall?" Rose interrupts. "Then maybe stop putting yourself in situations where we would.."
"She's right, dick." Raven agreed
"This is something we all will talk about once we're home and we will discuss this, Dick. But right now we have bigger problems." Kory states
At the scene
Teams
Tim and Raven
Superboy and Crypto
Rose and BB
Kory and Nightwing
Rose fights off guards with her sword while BB sneaks behind them and runs them off as a tiger.
Superboy uses the X-ray vision to find the missing kids in the van while crypto scares off the abductors to Nightwing and starfire.
Tim is fighting the head drug lord.
"So, they send a boy to finish this off?" The criminal smugs
"That would be me" Raven appears in the shadows allowing her magic to throw him into the wall knocking him unconscious.
They wait for the cops to get their and make their arrest but BB doesn't feel like sticking by.
"Where's Gar?" Raven asks rose
"He didn't feel like sticking by watching dick get all the praise"
Rachel didn't like to sticking around for the crowd to come anyway but knowing Gar was this upset concerned her.
"Dick. Gar left. I think you should go back and follow him." Rachel alarmed
"Rachel. Gar is just angry. What he needs is some time alone and blow off some steam." He reassured her
"That worked well for Jason." Rachel making her point
Dick stood in silence feeling the guilt coming back but trying not to use that as an attack and more of her worry for Gar.
"I'll talk to him." He says before heading back to the tower.
Dick goes home before the press comes through to talk to Gar. Finds him in the training room Gar taking his anger out on the everlast punching bag.
"Picturing my face?" Dick comes along side bb.
"Something like that."
"I don't want you to feel.. this isn't a team. We got a win tonight. I want us to celebrate.. but I guess that's hard when you don't think you can trust your team.." dick shares
Gar keeps quiet
"Gar.. I'm sorry. I really am. Last thing I want.. is to lose any more of you."
Gar bows his head for moment in remembrance of Hawk. "I don't either."
"Help me to be better. I need you all. More than you know." Dick admits
Gar nods. He knew he was angry with dick but He was his family now and he knew when they failed as a team they had to remember to stay strong as a family.
