Ben was badly hurt by someone when he was ten that had awakened his Anodite genes and nearly was taken over by it. He had been able to hide it for five years, until recently when something traumatic happened and he nearly was taken over by it again. But, he took in the confidence to trust one of his friends of the Teen Titans, who he met when he was eleven. He has trusted Raven and Beast Boy with the secret of his abilities.
"So, you're having troubles with your emotions?" Raven said as both she and Ben walked into her room, "And, you believe it's because of you're alien descent?"
"Yeah, that's right." Ben told her.
"Isn't this something you should talk to Star about?" Raven said.
"My Grandmother's species get their abilities from mana, or magic and life you see." Ben says.
"Alright, I'm willing to by that. But, why come to me? Doesn't your cousin know how to control her abilities?" she aid to him.
"Yes, she can. It's just, she doesn't know that I have the same abilities. In fact, know one other than you and BB know about it." Ben said.
Raven stared at him, "You mean to tell me that you've been hiding the fact that you had these abilities for five years from your family?"
"That's right." Ben said simply.
"Why?" Raven asked.
"Because how I got the abilities is a sensitive topic." Ben told her.
She nodded showing that she understood and didn't push him any further. Raven then went to her bookshelf and picked up a round disk-like object and handed it to Ben. The design on the one side of it wasn't anything special, except for the fact that it looked like a pair six eyes staring at him. He looked at her in confusion.
"What's this?" Ben said.
"It's a meditation mirror." Raven told him as she flipped it to the mirror side, "I think that meditating may help you to control your emotions."
"Okay, and the mirror?" Ben said curiously.
"It will open up a portal to your mind and your emotions will be like different versions of you." She says.
"And how will that help?" Ben said.
"I'll show you." She said placing a hand over the mirror that was in Ben's hand.
