Falling, an abyss of darkness. A nice darkness, one that has always been there. It was one she feared would grown yet Raven has grown to accept it as her own. It grows as does her rage and with in the darkness all her mistakes are shown, her failures both personal and public, the one person she couldn't save and all the ones she has brought harm to. The one nightmare that cant be brushed aside. As Raven awakens she finds herself cuddling her pillow, awoken by what sounds like yelling from inside the tower. Soon, the pang of loneliness hits her. The consent reminder that she is all alone in this world, with everyone in the tower having someone, it becomes hard not to feel what she herself is missing.

"Sometimes it's worse than anger," she mumbles to herself.

Soon she feels it, the frustration coming from the others in the tower. As she leaves her room in search for some tea she hears Robin yelling at the T.V., as Raven looks she sees an man in what looks like a police close.

"What do you mean you don't have anything on him? You're asking us for help and you don't have anything for us to go on?"

The unknown man on the other end simply says, "He's an information broker, that is all we know."

As Raven reaches for the cupboard that her tea is kept in she hears another voice, this one coming from the screen as well. "Yes, this is a favor but I don't think you want me looking in to how a BOY comes to have the money to buy a tower, or looking in to the fact that half the people you put away end up breaking out days latter"

"you seem to forget who you are dealing with, I clean up the messes you, yourself seem to run away from. DON'T PUSH ME" Robin yelled him

"you hear me kid, I run this town. You keep on being Mr. Hero because I LET you, you are allowed to take out the ones who feel are dangerous not because I can't do it but because I don't feel like wasting the man power. SO you will find the man I told you to find days ago or you will find that police can and will stop a bunch of small children from playing around in MY CITY.

She could feel the fury rising from within the Boy Wonder and the only thing that kept him from 'hanging up' on the officer came floating in rubbing her eyes asking "Why the loud yelling, Robin?" His answer was quick, almost as if he snapped at her: "Nothing, Star, go back to bed."

Starfire simply glared at Robin until he apologized, no words need to be said even if Raven hadn't been able to feel her anger she would have known that she was mad.

"I am sorry Star, I am kinda stressed ok, officer whatshisface has been yelling at me for the last three days and this guy is harder to find than Slade. I am sorry, so please just go back to bed"

Cyborg walked in followed by a grinning Beast Boy. "How can we with all this yelling? We might as well have some breakfast if we're up, right?" Cyborg said with a slight yawn at the end. As the two begin the daily squabble on what to eat Raven finely realized that she was hungry and was not in the mood for more yelling, less she or Robin snap someone's neck.

"Cy win's, Beast Boy shut up I am not in the mood, I would like some as well if you wouldn't mind making it…now would be nice"

With Beast Boy out numbered he just huffed and sat down on the couch to pout as the room slowly begun to smell of cooking bacon and eggs. As Robin took one last look at the T.V., he simply said, "We will continue this talk later." He then took a seat and began speaking to the fellow Titans.

"So where is Terra?" Robin asked, his bad mood now gone.

And as if on cue, the blond walked in and sat down at the table. If any were looking they would have seen Beast Boy turn a slight shade of red.

"he's pouting on the couch if you need him Terra" said Cyborg now grinning

"why is he pouting? What did you do to my Beast boy?" Terra said with a little smirk on her face.

As Beast boy herd this his face took a much deeper shade of red this time and Cyborg noticed this time and begin laughing…hard.

Robin continues: "OK. The Police Chief is needing an information broker arrested and he is getting away so they are basically black mailing us in to doing it. Help is not needed but it would be nice."

"umm you said 'kinda black mailed' what in the world did you get in to?" Terra asked

"well the thing is, most of the police department is corrupt-" Robin begin to answer

"so isn't it always?" Beast boy interrupted

"yes but he is new to the job and is trying to 'clean up' the department" Robin said

"so why are we asked to do it then?" Terra asks between mouthfuls

"he has been arrested around 10 times, each and every time it has been 'magically' erased from the system and on top of it all problems keep on happing with the warrant, so he's been getting off on that to" said Robin who irritation had been growing

"is that why you have been up so late?" asks Star who has yet to go back to bed

"yes Star, I have been looking for him for the last three days, any more question?" said Robin

"yea ,why do you need help then, and why is it not needed?" asked Raven

"thank god, an intelligent question" Robin mumbled then answered her question

"well he is black mail me mainly, yea I could prove ownership of the tower and yes I could prove that its his men released half the people we put away, but we need to save face with the city" Robin said almost to himself

Beast boy begin to cough "bull shit" until Terra punched him in the arm jokingly

"so how is this going down?" said Robin swallowing as much pride as possible

The team was shocked; this was the closest Robin had ever come to asking for help…from anyone.

Starfire was the first to say something. "Robin, I would love to assist you in the finding of the broker of information."

Cyborg was seconds behind her. "I'm sure he has to be online somehow, I will be on it."

Terra just nodded and Beast Boy was soon to follow. All eyes were on Raven at this point. "Go team," she said dryly

Soon the massive letter was a buzz with activity. Robin was on his personal commuter, Cyborg was on the main one and Beast Boy was talking plans with Terra. Star was left out with her lack of investigating prowess or connections.

"Do you need help, Terra? I would be happy to assist you." offered Starfire The blond just shook her head and she whispered something in the green boy's ear to which he laughed. Raven could sense isolation resonating off the orange girl and felt pity for her; not enough to go and help her out but enough to talk to Cy about it.

The man machine was typing away and she floated beside him, speaking in a quite tone. "Don't you have something Star can do?"

Cyborg looked up from the screen to look at her.

"No, but if she follows me it will kinda be hard to stay in the shadows."

He shook his head as he turned to the screen again. "B and T aren't doing anything; hell, I don't think they are even helping with this."

"Why?"

Cy now stopped what he was doing to look Raven in the eye. "Do you honestly need an answer to that question? Beast Boy is green; yeah, he can be a fly on the wall but a green one stands out…a lot. And from what little I could gather this guy is either really skilled or lucky as hell. Not to mention the fact that you can't poke Terra with out her flipping out and throwing rocks at everyone so they are out. Star, she can't look mean to save her life." said Cyborg

"so Star , Terra and BB are back up in case something goes down and we cant respond in time?"

"yea, So that leaves me, you and Boy Wonder to handle this." answered Cyborg

"So what am I doing?" asked Raven

Cyborg stares her in the eye. "Play at your strengths. Me, I am half machine so I am looking for a money trail. You, Raven, are a half demon, you're scary as hell not to mention the fact that you can go through walls and stuff. That is some ninja shit there."

"And what is Robin?"

"Robin, now he is half dick, in fact I think it's his first name." Cyborg laughed. Raven felt a giggle creep up on her and then a light shattered. Soon she was in her room, floating in the lotus position, chanting her mantra until she felt the calm go through her.

Days passed and little information was found. She could feel the frustration growing in everyone, most notably in Robin and Cyborg.

She was thinking over and over again, "What if he isn't so much skilled as lucky? Could Jinx be involved? I thought she turned over a new leaf, I wonder if her hair is still as pink as it used to be?" She could feel herself lose focus; not even her mantra is working. She felt herself slip away until a knock on her door pulled her away from her own thoughts.

"Raven, we need your help." It was Cyborg.

"What do you need?" she said back, hiding the small pit of fear that was in her stomach.

"Well, all I could find is that the guy is smart, blond and crazy…although crazy comes up more than anything."

"So why am I needed?"

"That's all we could find: no pic, not even a damn snitch, so we are hoping you could find something on him."

"I need something to go on to find people." She said as she walked to her door to see what they needed. As she did she saw the tired look on Cyborg's face. "Have you slept? You look like hell." Raven asked.

"If I look bad you should see Robin."
