Demons
Chapter 1
This is a short introduction chapter then it goes into a very long song fic. Disclaimer I don't own the teen titans or an of its characters (unfortunately) they belong to WB cartoons and DC. I also don't own the song it is Demons by Imagine Dragons which I highly recommend you check out.
She didn't know what it was about the rain that made her relax more maybe it was the slow tapping she heard against the window or maybe it was the fact that no villain usually made any trouble what so ever when it was this bad outside. Feeling at ease knowing that she could spend the entire day doing nothing more than meditating and reading she blew on her tea and enjoyed the only time in the day were she could get the front room to herself without getting annoyed at a certain green changeling trying to get her to laugh or trying to get her to join in whatever the rest of the team were doing that day.
As she listened to the pitter patter of the rain on the main window she heard the doors open 'hmm robin seems to be up earlier than usual today, probably just getting on an even earlier training schedule bet Beast Boy's going to like that' but as she turned around to greet the intruder she realised it wasn't Robin at all but it was Beast Boy 'Beast Boy awake before noon hell must be freezing over' just as she thought that he turned around and noticed her resting on the couch.
"Oh morning Rae." Said Beast Boy but weirdly enough not with his usual enthusiasm
"Raven and good morning." She said.
"Don't worry ill be gone in a while just making myself a bit of breakfast." Yet again in a monotone just like her own. This was starting to freak her out even if it is early this still wasn't like any beast boy attitude she's seen before. So she decided to try to get his mind off whatever was bothering him by distracting him.
"You know if you wait a little bit longer I am sure Cy will be up in a while to make his famous all meat breakfast buffet." There that should get him back to his normal self she thought.
"Well I guess I should hurry up then." Once again without even a hint of emotion. This was really starting to scare her so instead of distraction she took the risk of facing it head on.
"Ok you are really starting to freak me I know I'm not the best person to criticise your attitude but this is definitely not how you usually act. So if this is one of your pranks its not funny so stop this now before I lose my patience." There that should do it.
"You think this is a prank" Finally an emotion but not exactly the one she wanted "Just because I'm having a bad day and I'm not my usual self you think that I'm trying to prank you by acting different and freaking you out. Jesus Rae when everyone else acts different you let them off because they are going through some issues but no this little green man can't have one bad day. Just because your half demon Rae doesn't mean your the only one with demons inside" She saw him take a deep breath in slowly and exhale "Sorry Rae didn't mean to snap at you then. Ill just leave you alone if I'm freaking you out a little this kind of thing usually only lasts today anyway." After that he just poured his cereal and grabbed his juice and left leaving Raven with more questions than answers like what did he mean by 'only lasts today' and 'what was so special about today' and what did he mean when he said 'Just because your half demon doesn't mean your the only one with demons inside'.
She then spent the next ten minutes contemplating if she should intervene or just leave him to it after all she saw things like this on a daily basis it kinda came with the territory of being teen heroes after some time everyone cracks under the pressure. But the thing is they never went through them alone Robin always had Starfire to turn to and talk too and he even confided in her sometimes. Cyborg had his new friend Sarah to talk in fact she couldn't remember a time lately he wasn't on the phone to her and yet again he confided in her also. Even she had sought comfort in a moment or two and that's when she realised it was always him that comforted her and the only time she ever repaid the favour was after the beast incident and Terra but if this thing happened every year then how the hell did she not notice this sooner. I mean c'mon she was an empath how did she not see these changes in him "I am the worse empath ever." She spoke out loud finally deciding to go after him.
As she rushed out the door she ran into Robin "whoa what's the rush Raven."
"Nothing just need to take care of something." Or someone she secretly thought.
