Hey readers. This is my new story, which I am definitely planning on finishing, unlike my other two which I'm putting on hiatus. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this. Please review if you can. Reviews (good or bad) make me happy D

Disclaimer: I do not own Teen Titans (although I wish I did!)


It was eight in the morning, and as usual, only one Titan was up. After watching a breathtaking sunrise light up the horizon of Jump City and meditating on the roof for an hour, Raven had gone back inside Titans Tower. Now situated in the kitchen, she made herself a refreshing cup of herbal tea and relaxed on the sofa. Half an hour later, she was deeply involved in an old novel from Azarath, so deeply involved that she didn't hear the doors to the main room open as Robin entered.

"Morning Raven."

"Morning." she replied, not looking up from her book. Robin made his way to the kitchen to make some breakfast, but was interrupted by the blaring of the alarm and the flashing red light. Wasting no time, the two Titans made their way over to the computer, where Robin typed furiously at the keys to see which villain they were up against at this time in the morning. Cyborg, Beast Boy and Starfire ran into the room just as the villains came up on the main screen. Cinderblock was destroying a quarry near the beach and Kardiac was attacking downtown.

"Beast Boy, Starfire and Cyborg, you go after Kardiac. Raven, you're with me. Call if you need any help. Titans Go!"

Starfire picked up Cyborg and flew out of the Tower, closely followed by Beast Boy who'd transformed into a Pterodactyl. Raven enveloped Robin in dark energy and disappeared through the roof, levitating at high speeds towards the quarry.

They landed, and as expected, found Cinderblock completely destroying expensive mining equipment. The Titans came up behind him, preparing for a surprise attack. But Cinderblock got there first. He picked up a huge slab of limestone and threw it towards the heroes. Just in the nick of time, Raven teleported them both out of harms way.

"Thanks." Robin said gratefully, getting some birdarangs out of his belt, and preparing to take aim as Raven's hands cackled with energy. "Lets get him!"

Both Titans ran forward towards the villain. Robin slid under his legs aiming his birdarangs at Cinderblocks back and Raven used her power to force his rock solid arms against his side, disabling movement.

Raven turned her back to find some form of restraint, and didn't notice Cinderblock holding a small laser in his hand. Robin came running round from behind Cinderblock, but didn't notice the laser until it was too late, and a small scream of pain filled his ears. He looked up to see Raven falling from the sky. "Use your powers!" he thought. She only fell faster.

Raven didn't know what was happening, but she could feel a rush of cool air hitting her face. Opening her eyes, she realised she was falling, fast. "Azarath Metrion Zinthos!" she thought. Nothing happened. "My powers? Why aren't they working?" Before she could answer herself, she collided with rough ground. Robin ran towards her.

"Are you alright?"

She checked herself over, and saw only a few cuts. "No harm done. But my powers-"

"Move!"

On the order, Raven rolled out of the way as Cinderblock's fist came crashing down in the spot she'd being sitting not a second prior. "That was too close."

Standing up, she watched as Robin threw mini bombs at the villain. They were effective as Cinderblock cried out in apparent pain. He wasn't. Cinderblock swatted Robin away like a fly and ran towards an industrial crane, picking it up with ease. He held it over his head and threw it at the Titans, who luckily dodged it.

"We need to get him away from this equipment!" Robin shouted frustrated, trying to come up with a plan.

"I'll lead him towards the beach, you contact the others and see if they can help. We're in over our heads." Raven replied, avoiding a shower of dirt that came her way.

"Do it. I'll catch up."

With her leader's order, she ran towards the beach, making sure that she had Cinderblock's attention so that Robin could contact their team-mates. She tried summoning her powers again, but still nothing. This was gonna be more difficult. Luckily for Raven, she was a fast runner, and it didn't take long for her to lure Cinderblock to the beach. There were no tourists because it was still quite early in the day, and there were no machines for him to use as ammunition. Cinderblock was tired from chasing the Titan, which gave Raven an advantage over the giant. She threw precise kicks and punches at his weak spots, but it was no good. Her hands began to hurt from hitting solid rock.

"Where's Robin?" she thought, jumping out of reach of Cinderblock. But he'd regained some of his strength and now had the upper hand. Raven was beginning to tire. She couldn't defeat him with no powers, and she knew it. Cinderblock picked her up and chucked her into the sea. Raven had a coughing fit as she accidentally drank some sea-water. The saltiness burned her throat, but she had to get up. She quickly swam back to shore and charged again, getting fed up of this battle. Cinderblock however had just begun, and as soon as Raven was in reach, he whacked her away with his strong arm. Raven fell backwards. She looked up to see a giant shadow surrounding her, as Cinderblock's hand, curled into a fist, came ever closer to hitting her. Shocked, Raven couldn't move, like she was deer caught in headlights. Preparing for the worst, she closed her eyes and covered her head. But she didn't feel a heavy force hit her head on. Instead she felt herself flying to the left. Opening her eyes, she saw streaks of red, green and yellow, and Robin looking down at her. He'd grabbed her just in time, and was heading for cover in a cave in the cliff-face with the help of his bungee cord.

Robin released the cord and both Titans fell into the mouth of the cave and landed very roughly inside. Robin was still holding Raven. She seemed fine.

Suddenly, the sound of loud laughter echoed through the cave. Cinderblock was standing at the entrance. Before they could move, he'd slammed himself against the cliff, causing large boulders of rock to fall. The Titans watched as their only exit became blocked by the boulders. A blanket of dust shrouded them. They used their cloak and cape to stop them breathing in the dust. Finally, it cleared and Robin and Raven could truly appreciate their predicament.

The cave was small. Both of them could stand up with the 7 foot ceiling, but it wasn't comforting. The far wall was only about 9 feet from the entrance, and it wasn't very wide. The only light came from the sun, which shone through the tiny spaces between the boulders. Luckily it was a sunny day, so they had some visibility. But still, they were trapped.

Robin wasted no time in trying to escape. He reached into his pocket for his mini-bombs, but found none. He'd used them all during the fight. He turned back to his team-mate.

"Can you get us out of here?" Robin asked expectedly. Raven raised her hands in front of her and recited her mantra. Nothing happened.

"No. I think that laser disabled my powers." she assessed, becoming anxious about being trapped in a cave. Robin took out his communicator, but the screen showed static. He had no way of contacting the others for help.

"Damn it!" Robin shouted, punching hard at the rocks blocking their exit. He bit back a expletive when his hand collided with the hard surface of the rock. The sudden collision caused some debris to fall from the ceiling of the cave. Raven gulped and backed up against the wall furthest away.

"Raven? Are you ok?"

Robin had noticed Raven's breathing become quicker and deeper. Reaching out a hand towards her, he gently rubbed her arm in comfort.

"What is it?"

She didn't respond to his question, and he began to fret as her eyes began to lose focus.

"Don't worry, we'll be out of here soon." He said, concerned.

This did nothing to calm her nerves. Raven's breath became more erratic and she felt the small room around her spinning out of control. Before she knew it, she swayed over to the side. But before she could slam her head against the floor, she felt two arms support her and hold her up. Faintly, she could hear Robin's voice calling out to her, but she couldn't shed the slight buzzing in her ear, nor the wave of nausea in her stomach.

"Raven! Raven stay with me okay!"
