Cool... I wonder if this is a RaeRob or whatever... oh, I'm so nutty! Of course it's RaeRob, or it wouldn't be sorted in that section! Okay, your story is interestingly named, and it's GOOD! it has a puzzling plot and has the reader wondering what will happen next, you did a really great job. Congrats! update soon, please!
Yours,

Very cool start! I enjoyed the first chapter, just one thing though, I know that there are two chapters but for some reason the page kept saying that the second chapter couldn't be found. I just thought that was a little odd. UDPATE ASAP!

I enjoyed your story. I'm glad to see that you are a Rae/Rob fan. I will be looking forward to the next chapter.
Well thanks again, and here is Chapter two, the one you guys are waiting for.
Note: I don't own anything again, or I would be eating something better then Oreos for breakfast.
Chapter 2: Catch me
"Azarath, Metrion, Synthos, Azarath, Metrion…its no use." Floating in her room, Raven sighed, it was a sigh of worry, of what was to come.
"I can't concentrate!" Her eyes glowed red and her mirror shattered in the bathroom.
"Great…just great…" She didn't even bother to see the mess she was creating, she didn't want to know how much damage she was doing. Out of all the titans she knew she was spending the most money on replacements in the house. Beast Boy was probably the second closest, because of his stupidity (I love BB by the way so don't get mad). It seemed she was losing her concentration in meditation more frequently, and without a good meditation every day loosing control of her powers was more recent. Approaching the ground, she sat on her bed, hoping no one had heard the rather large crash.
"Great there's another seven years bad luck…" She graced her room with a rare smile. She walked over to the book shelf and pulled out a black bound spell book. She had been trying to translate the spells since she first came to the team. (The reason behind the black book) A small sheet of paper was inside about halfway through. She hadn't gotten far in translations, and her method was taking to long. What if I asked Robin for help? He's good at that whole detective thing. She smiled at the thought, of her and Robin trying to work out spells together, then knowledge came into her head. You know he can't read your language, plus your having enough trouble, what's to say he can do it if you can't? Really Raven you need to use me more often…just let me out for the day, and I know I can… she quickly cut her link off to nevermore.
"I will not let you out for a day…insolent fool…because then everyone else would want to come out and play…that's all we need a bunch of ravens running around." She sighed and placed the book back on its protective shelf, letting her hand fall upon another. It was purple leather bound. She pulled it out, and sat at her desk, taking out a quill, and some purple ink. Looking down at the diary, she began to write.
"You can't beat me! I'm the best." The little green changeling puffed his chest out, only to receive a punch in the gut from Cyborg. Then the fight began, the girls sat off to the side, watching the provided entertainment. Starfire began cheering on Cyborg, and Terra encouraging Beast Boy.
"You little tofu eating…"
"At least I got a girlfriend…"
"So do I you idiot…"
"Who lives here? I thought not…"
"Alright, let's just stop already!" Robin had his arms crossed, and he glared at the boys, which automatically silenced the girls. "Your just going to break something, so if you want to fight take it outside…also Raven was sleeping, so keep it down."
"She's been sleeping for like the last four days. Don't you think she's had enough?" Beast Boys voice sneered out in reply. "I mean can't she just come out and talk to us! She's so untrustworthy; she sits in there conjuring up plans, learning spells…"
"BB give it a rest…" Cyborg spoke threateningly, trying to calm down his little elf friend.
"No! I wouldn't be surprised if she's planning the end for us right now…" He glared at Robin.
"Beast Boy, if you say one more word against her, your out…do you understand?" Grinding his teeth Robin turned around walking back up to the kitchen. "I mean it…"
The changeling shrunk what seemed to be three sized, as he realized what he just said, but the damage was already done. Then they all heard it, a large crash coming from...ravens room?
"What has happened in friend Raven?" Starfires magical voice rang slicing through the silence. "May we go check on her?" They all looked over at Robin, who looked at Beast Boy with a pitied look.
"Think she heard you?" Beast Boy gulped hoping she, he knew it would be his life if she did.
"Who cares...it's her business anyways..." It was Terra's first time speaking up in the conversation.
Robin sat on the roof top, thinking over what had just happened. Raven was gone, no were to be found, Beast Boy was probably snogging with Terra, and Starfire was trying to track down the sorceress with Cyborg, and he had of course snuck off to think. He told them he was going to check her room for clues, since he was the only one with the password, and he didn't trust anyone else handling her things. The problem was the moment he stepped up to her room; he couldn't bring himself to go in. He was scared, so he fled to the roof top.
"Hey man…you okay?" Cyborg sat down next to him, resting a hand on his shoulder. "She'll be okay; you know that, she'll come home when she's ready." Robin weakly smiled back at his metal friend, he stretched his arms above his head and stood up.
"Did you find anything?" Cyborg shook his head solemnly.
"If she wants to be found, we would have found her already. I think she just wants to be alone." He stood up next to his leader, "How about you anything in her room?"
Robins face flushed, and he looked down to his shoe, "No…nothing."
It had all gone by so quickly, she could hardly remember it all. She was in her room, writing, and her powers surged. She felt it; she felt rage being sucked out of her heart and soul. She had to hold back, whatever had a grasp on her emotion was strong, but why rage? Then she felt something else, something smaller being sliced out of her, a blinding bright orange flash of light come out of her chest soaring through the window.
"No…"
Her chest hurt so badly, when she looked down all she saw was blood, running over her hands. Opening up her leotard, she looked in the mirror to inspect her skin, nothing was cut. Rushing to the bathroom, not even taking notice to the shards of glass being rammed into her feet she leapt into the shower, turning the water on quickly, crimson staining the tub. The water soon ran clear, and she silently floated back to her bed, cold and wet. She had to leave; she had to get out before someone saw her.
Now she sat at the park, not far from the Tower, she wanted to keep it in sight. Sitting on an old jungle gym, perched on the very top, her hair flowing fiercely in the wind, her cape curving behind her. Tears were streaming down her face, and the clouds began to form, threatening to storm.
