Here is the second chapter. Thank you for reading and already giving me reviews. I know that I managed to put this chapter up fast and I am already wrking on the next one. Chapter three should be up about Sunday next week, no internet so I won't be able to upload. Anyhow onto chapter two:

Chapter 2

There Beast Boy is, but he is not the normal Beast Boy. Instead he is a small child, no more than eight, trying to hide from the world. He is chained to a table and doctors are trying to do tests on him. Pricking him with needles, feeding him strange medicines, taking x-rays, cat scans. He was being used as a medical experiment, being poked and prodded. Raven actually felt sorry for this little boy who taunted, teased and ruined her life.

On top of that there were kids yelling at him, calling him a freak and other things much worse. A few whipped stones at him and ran at him with sticks. Random voices also filled the air. "I will not have him, he is green." "Go to the devil you monster." "Have you seen that boy? He is a disgrace to the world." "You probably killed your parents yourself!" "He can't listen to orders, he does not do what he is told." "We don't want you... nobody does." The thing that hurt him the most were his parents. How he could not save them, how they left him all alone. They were the only people he knew in the world and their boat sank in the river. No one found the boat or their bodies.

"Raven?" The little boy asked spotting her. Of course the real Beast Boy knew who she was. "It's okay Beast Boy." Raven spoke as she walked near. All she had to do was comfort him and leave. She had no powers in here, all of it was used to just be in his nightmare. The setting changed, everything was still there but he was backing away from Raven and the other things until he was against a brick wall and could not move anywhere. Great, even in his sleep he thinks I am evil.

"Please don't kill me." He cried hugging himself to make him as small as he could. "Beast Boy, it's alright. I will not harm you, I am here to help you okay?" Slowly she continued forward, everything else trying to reach the young boy. Suddenly Beast Boy ran forward and latched onto her legs. "Please, please help. I know you hate me but make them go away." He sobbed. Raven was not good with children but taking pity on Beast Boy she knelt down and patted him awkwardly on the back. "You are going to be alright. Think of all the good things that have happened. Okay Beast Boy?" He looked up at her with a strange expression. "My name is Garfield Logan, I go by Gar."

As he spoke several components of the nightmare faded away. Inside her hood Raven smirked, what a name. But he told her it she did not try to find it out, one day she may be able to use this against him, a long way into the future. "You are Beast Boy to me and that is what I will call you." Was how she answered in monotone. He hugged her tighter, around the neck now that she was his height. "Why is this happening?" Beast Boy asked innocently. "This is just a nightmare you are having, you sent me here to stop it." She sat down and removed his arms from her neck. He sat beside her and grabbed her cloak and started ringing it in his hands.

Beast Boy curled up with the cloak and leaned against her. Raven sighed, this was great, now Beast Boy was leaning on her. "Thank you for coming Raven." He smiled up at her and laid his head on her legs. Raven of course scowled, not that he saw, but the rest f the nightmare seemed to disappear leaving them alone. "The anniversary of my parent's deaths is approaching, that was why I have these nightmares." As he spoke Raven felt hot tears fall on her legs making her wet. Never before had she seen Beast Boy cry. He always went around with a goofy grin on his face, making corny jokes. She found herself running her fingers through his hair. Slowly the sobbing stopped and his breathing slowed to a regular rate.

"I think I know why I wanted you here instead of the others." He whispered. "Why is that?"Raven asked him. After a brief pause he stated his answer. "I think...I think that you and I are alike. You are so secretive, I do not know for sure. We both wear masks. You show no emotion, that is your way of hiding. I laugh everything off. My-my nightmare, this was my past. I taught myself to brush everything off with a smile and a joke." He seemed to quiver a little. "Inside my past haunts me, especially at this time of year. I am broken, Raven, no one can fix me."

Before she could feel Raven focused on her breathing. She would not show emotion, she would not lose control. If she did major damage would happen. She could kill Beast Boy. They sat in silence, the child Beast Boy on her lap, Raven pulling her hands through his hair. That was how she thought of herself, broken. No one could fix her. She was not allowed to feel. Her past haunted her, her future loomed over her in threat. Beast Boy seemed so happy all the time, how could he feel the same was she did.

"You have the right idea, Beast Boy. Keep laughing, find the good things in life. Enjoy life, unlike me. You do not know your future, look at what you want to come and make it happen, feel." She sighed. "Thank you." He whispered again. He grabbed her arm and pulled it around him. Using his other arm he held her hand. "I want to know more about you Raven. You are our friend but I know next to nothing about you. I feel like you see through my mask, you know me, you get me. I want to get you too. My pain is bad, but I feel like you can help. However, I think you have pain too, worse than my own. I want to help you Raven." Beast Boy begged. No one could help her, he already knew too much. The more he knew the more it hurt him.

Aburtly Raven stood, the young Beast Boy still latched onto her arm. "I have to go." Was all she told him as she went to leave for her own body. She was exhausted, being in here was taking its toll, that along with no sleep for the past few days. His tears started again. "Don't go Raven! The nightmare will come back again." He sobbed. "I have to Beast Boy, you will be alright." Seeing he was still crying Raven did something she had never done before. Reaching down she hugged the boy and he hugged her back. "In the real world you are safe in bed. Here you can create whatever dreams you want Beast Boy. Just think of what you want, in here you can have it. You are in control." She whispered in one of is pointed ears. Realizing him she vanished and headed back to her own form.

Raven opened her eyes. She had a massive headache but it was no longer from Beast Boy's nightmare. She needed to receive some rest before the day began. She turned for the door. What the... Raven looked down at her arm. Beast Boy's gloved hand was holding her arm. How would she get out of this without waking him? Already she had a massive headache, using her powers would make it worse and probably create an explosion. Seeing she had to get away and her powers would be no help she turned back to his bed and carefully started t pry his fingers away.

Almost there. "Raven?" She froze. "Raven." "Ouf." Raven's body was pulled onto the bed. Beast Boy stirred and wrapped his arms around her. Now how was she going to escape? The sky was beginning to lighten and Robin would be up soon, he would recognize her absence. This was not good, another night without sleep. At agonizingly slow rate she loosened Beast Boy's grip. When she heard Robin head to the bathroom for a shower she panicked. She thrust Beast Boy off her and flew through the wall.

With not a single piece of energy to spare she walked back to her room. She would sleep the entire day, even through Robin's training sessions. She needed it. She would apologize to Robin later.

Had that been Raven? No Robin`s eyes were playing tricks on him. She did wake up early but spent all time until breakfast in her room. Although he did not know much about her Robin was certain that it had not been her. Must be my imagination and my eyes. He thought to himself and headed to the bathroom. Robin was incorrect however, that dark spot that looked like a cloaked figure had been his team mate Raven.
