Chapter 1

Wither away. That is my life goal at the moment, to wither away from life and this existence of mine. Malchior made a fool of me. A proper fool of me, my father is probably rolling in hell with laughter. He toyed with my feelings, actually letting me believe that someone might have cared about me, wanted to be with me, and loved me, for well me. No, it was all as lie, he wanted me for my powers, to bring him out of the book that trapped him and try to take over the world. We defeated him of course, with no problem, like we always do. The Teen Titans the rightful hero's of Jump City. You's think with me being a hero that I would be more cautious of the people I trust, but no, I'm a stupid hormonal teenager just like the rest of them and I got dropped in the dirt just like the rest of them. But that's fine, just another lesson learned. Love sucks.
"Azarath Metrion Zinthos." I murmured, in my very monotone voice while levitating a foot off the dark purple bed. My senses told me it was around five in the mourning and the sun was about to rise over Jump City. Levitating down to my feet I made my way silently out of my room, the steel door sliding quickly to the left and letting me step into the hall. Next door was the Tamaramean alien; Starfire. Who I could hear lightly snoring probably into a fluffy pink pillow. Next door to her was the bathroom that her and I shared, all of her girly products took over the shelves and her willingness to let me use them was almost sickening. Next to the bathroom was the green changeling known as Beast Boy. His snoring you could hear from a mile away, with ear plugs, while under sea. His humor annoyed me on a regular basis and everyone is surprised that he's lasted this long. Next to green boy was the mechanic of the house and the team; Cyborg. Half man, half robot he's the older brother that keeps us all sane, and in a sense holds us together, thankfully he doesn't snore.
Then last but not least was leader of the team, Boy Wonder but to the people he was known as Robin. The brains of the whole operation, he truly was a great leader. Who else is going to hold me back when I want to kill Beast Boy. It was almost not fair, in a way. Due to the link we have he can tell when I'm about to pounce across the dinner table and stab the green annoyance's eyes out. He was my best friend, the last thing on the earth holding me here. I knew I wasn't going to hear him snoring, he was an early riser, like me. He was probably in the training room, taking advantage of it before the team woke up and duty was going to call. I floated silently through the steel door and down the steps to the kitchen where I searched for my mug to make my cup of traditional herbal tea. To my surprise there was a cup already waiting for me, sitting on the counter, steam pouring over the top. I raised a thin eyebrow and floated over to it wondering if it was poisoned. That would be rude, trying to poison me through my tea.
"Five o'clock on the dot." a voice rang out behind me. A smile almost crept onto my face as I turned to look at Bird Boy sitting at the kitchen table his legs propped up on the chair across from him.
"I'm guessing this is a trap?" I stated, while turning back around and grabbing my cup of hot tea. "No one's ever made me tea." I listened as the chair scrapped across the floor as he got to his feet, my back still to him.
"Well you haven't left your room lately, it's the only way to see you." he replied, flatly, I could hear the leadership in his voice, laced with worry. "We've been worried." he added.
"I'm fine, Robin." I replied, curtly and turned to find him a foot away from me. My violet eyes snapped up to the mask that covered him. They might be blocking me from seeing the emotion in them but I could feel it radiating off him.
"You've been locked away in your room for a week," he said, "You don't come out for food, you only leave for missions and your friends miss you."
'Friends.' I scoffed, mentally.
"I'm worried about you." he said, when he saw my eyes roll. That was something that was hard to doubt, Robin's friendship.
"There is no need to worry about me." I said, and took another sip of the hot liquid. "So what if I lock myself away for a few days, it's not like I haven't done it before." I pointed out.
"Not over a boy before." That was a prick to the heart, and I felt Brave begin to probe at me, wanting me to take a swing at his face. But I pushed her back down into the depths of my mind.
'Come on!' she cried. 'One punch right in the nose!'
'Shut up, Brave!' Lust cried. 'Don't hurt my Boy Wonder's face.'
'Will you two please be quiet.' Knowledge begged. 'Raven's trying to concentrate.'
"I'm fine." I whispered again, after and awkward pause on my part. My head was aching due to my emotions bickering. I really need to meditate, and beat the crap out of all of them.
'WHO WANTS TO PLAY STANCH BALL IN NEVERMORE?!' Rude screamed over, everyone.
'I'll play!' Happy answered.
'Um, no thanks...' Timid whispered from the corner of my mind.
'I rather watch Robin train,' Lust declared, with the smack of her lips. 'He's so hot when he sweats.'
"I need to go." I blurted out, suddenly and began to flee from the room. But Robin caught up quickly and grabbed my elbow pulling me to a halt.
"What's the matter?" he asked, noticing the squinting I made with my face.
"Nothing, I just need to meditate." I said, and tried to continue out of the room, but he stopped me again.
"Raven I want to help," he said, and looked at me with what I assume were pleading eyes. "Let me in.
