"Robin?" Her voice almost cracked. She'd been having strange, disturbing dreams. Usually that meant trouble. But her fear wasn't the only thing that made her nervous around her seemingly fearless leader.
Robin peered around the corner, coming out of his room in his 'normal' clothes. The ones he'd stolen from the criminal in Tokyo, complete with glasses. Raven noticed she'd never actually seen his eyes before. "Raven? What's wrong?" He could always tell with her. They'd seemed to bond after her big birthday.
She blushed, glad most of her face was hidden in the shadow of her hood. "Dreams."
This made him listen. He knew how important they were to her. "Tell me everything. Come in." He moved aside so she could move past him, their bodies almost touching. His room was always immaculate, even when he was completely stressed with his job. "I have to meet Starfire, but I think this is more important."
She bit her bottom lip and nodded. "I know this may sound strange to you, but I've been having these... visions... of Terra... and Slade, too."
He punched the punching bag that was hanging from the ceiling. "Impossible." He growled. "Slade is dead. We saw him die."
"Of course." Raven said, a little too quickly. She sighed softly. "You're right. It's probably nothing. I'll just let myself out."
Robin was quick to block the way. "No. If you're sure, then maybe we should talk about it."
She told him about her strange visions, how they haunted her every moment. Finally, she took a deep breath and said, "Slade has to be alive. I don't know how, but it can't mean something good for us. Terra is in danger."
He nodded. "I just can't believe... but I have to... Your visions are never wrong. I'll warn Beast Boy. Have him keep an eye on her. You can go now."
Raven wanted to reach out to his crumpled, distraught form, but she held back. "I'll tell him. I'll see you later, Robin..." When there was no response, she closed the door on her way out. There was a crash, and the door shuddered underneath her fingers, but she left anyways. It was better to let him figure things out on his own.
