It wasn't often that the airspace over Titans Tower was occupied. When Robin had first heard the sound of a helicopter flying over the bay he hadn't paid it any attention. It was when the sound of whirring blades had gotten louder that the Boy Wonder looked up from what he was doing. He got up to investigate, leaving his chair twirling in his wake, as he headed for the window. He squinted towards the city, watching as a helicopter came into focus. The shadow fell across him for a fraction of a second as it soared past. It was coming here.
He wasted no time locking his computer and racing out of the room. It was rare for civilian aircraft to be in the Tower's airspace. That meant that their visit was probably important. How important the young leader didn't know yet. He wasn't the only Titan to notice the anomaly. He heard others moving behind him, and even more would be alerted by the security system when the helicopter actually landed on their roof.
As if by magic the alarms suddenly went off. Robin took the steps to the roof two at a time, not stumbling despite the light flashing red and off above him. He flung open the door, blinded by the sudden light, and stumbled out onto the roof. The Titan's leader managed to compose himself as he walked towards the helicopter that sat on the roof with still-running blades.
The logo emblazoned across the side marked this as a JCPD helicopter. Robin headed towards the officers inside, instinctual ducking as he went under the blades even though they didn't come anywhere near his head. “HELLO,” the Boy Wonder shouted, but his voice was easily picked up by the wind and spun away. “WHY ARE YOU HERE?”
For a moment there was no response. Perhaps they hadn't seen him speaking. It was obvious that they hadn't heard it. One of the helmeted officer's turned on a speaker that crackled over the slowing sound of the rotors above. “TEEN TITANS ROBIN AND STARFIRE ARE UNDER ARREST.” the announcement declared. Robin felt his stomach slam into his shoes and halted where he was a few feet away. The wideness of his masked eyes made it obvious he wasn't expecting this.
