I decided to change this fic. the old one confused everybody and it had a bad ending. Here's the new version. It's almost nothing alike. There is an attempted murder in this one and yes, there will be clues as to who did it. But no, I will not tell you if they live or not until the end.

Raven walked up the stairs to the kitchen. It was October 30th not the most fun day of the year. The other Titans thought that this would be the perfect day to start decorating, and sending out invitations, and calling all the other Titans to the Tower so they could help get ready, and a whole lot of other halloween stuff that just didn't matter to Raven. Life was different now that she and Beast boy weren't a couple. They had been very close and she supposed she couldn't call them a real couple, they were more like the best of friends. Raven had shared so much with him. She had told him about her past, she had spilled out all of her life for him to hear. She wanted so desperately to be his girlfriend but, he had only thought of them as friends. That's why he chose Starfire over her. They were just best friends.

She didn't have mush luck with the other two Titans ether. Cyborg was always working on something. Boring, was all Raven could say about that. The only thing they had ever really done together was get his precious car back, then build a new one. She had also brought him back from 3,000 b.c., but that wasn't really very promising. The first thing he had done was yell out someone's name then demand that she sent him back.

And Robin. Ever since Slade had come looking for Raven, she had been embarrassed around Robin. He was really nice to her and tried to be her friend. She had always been to nervous to talk to him. They had a bond. She had been inside his mind. She had seen what he could see. She could read his thoughts. He had been scared. He had needed someone to comfort him. She had tried. It hadn't worked. It took Robin every ounce of strength in his body to realize she had been right. Slade wasn't there. He wasn't real. But now they knew that he was. He had taken Raven. She had heard her fathers message. She knew that she was supposed to rule the world. She didn't want to though. She wanted someone to help her. She needed a friend. She begged herself to speak to Robin. He was at least trying. Why couldn't she? What was wrong with her that caused her not to speak with Robin. She didn't have time to find out...

The lights flashed off. Someone screamed. The lights flashed back on.

"Starfire!" Beast boy's voice rang throughout the Tower. "No!"

"What's wrong-? Oh, my..." Raven flew into the room to see her friend. Starfire lay on the ground. Her neck was bleeding. All the other Titans stood around her and Beast boy. "What is that?" asked Raven pointing at the window.

There, written in red, dripping letters was.

Slicing through the endless night,

Bringing grief, and fear, and fright.

Plastic binds tied 'round her neck,

Blood dripping down with all respect.

Nighty, night sweet riches sleep,

Until you bring me what I seek.

"Starfire," Beast boy cried. "Please be okay..."

"Who did this?" demanded Raven. "Who has tried to kill Starfire? I want answers NOW!" she screeched. "Get Star to the clinic Beast boy, I can handle this." Raven bound each Titan with a force to strong for them to break. "Who has done this?" she asked coldly. "And why?" No one said anything.

"Your as much of suspect as any of us," Robin pointed out.

"I wasn't in the room when it happened, I can't have done it." everyone except Bumblebee agreed with her.

"And how do we know that you didn't just turn off the lights, teleport in here, and stab Star?" she asked.

"We don't, I do." Raven said.

"But then why are we trusting you?" asked Bumblebee.

"Because she didn't do it!" said Beast boy walking into the room. "Can't you read? The clue is saying something, listen, Slicing through, that means they used weapons," he looked around at all of them.

"Speedy, Bumblebee, Robin, Cyborg, and I think that's it." Raven listed.

"Now we can let the others go," Beast boy indicated toward Aqualad, Terra, Hot Spot, and Wildebeest. Raven released them.

"Hey! Why do you think it was one of us?" demanded Bumblebee.

"Because, as Beast boy read it says slicing, that means weapon." Raven stated.

"So, are you gonna ask us questions?" asked Speedy.

"What exactly would we ask?" asked Aqualad.

"I dunno... like what we were doing, or if we were even all in here," he said looking at Raven.

"Right, Beast boy, who wasn't in here besides me?" she asked.

"Umm... nobody... we were all in here," he looked nervously around. "I'm gonna go get Star... maybe she can speak-"

"Beast boy, she had her neck cut, even if she isn't dead yet, she probably doesn't feel like talking," Raven scolded.

"Well I don't like the thought of her being alone when someone is trying to kill her," he shook slightly.

"Why don't you just infiltrate our minds?" asked Robin.

He didn't know why he had asked this. It just seemed like the kind of thing she would do in order to discover who had attempted to kill Starfire. Robin personally didn't care about Starfire. She was selfish, and stupid. He just didn't want to be around her. 'Like I would care if she died...' Robin thought. 'I would care..' he reconsidered.

"That's a good idea Robin. I'll start with you," Raven sat in the air and was about to chant her magic words when,

"There's another note!" Beast boy yelled carrying Starfire.

"What! But no one could've gotten out with out us noticing!" Raven yelled infuriately. "They wouldn't have had time!"

"I don't get it either Rae, one minute I'm speaking to Star, well it was more like talking to myself since she's unconscious, then I'm ducking with her as something comes flying across the room. And, I found this," he held up a golden triangle about the size of the play button on a remote, "thing. It looks like the edge of a weapon to me."

"Who has golden weapons?" asked Robin looking at the three other Titans beside him.

"Bumblebee, and Speedy," Raven released Cyborg, "and you."
