Chapter 2 - More Dangerous then you think
A seemingly weak voice carried over. "Tera. Raven can we talk?"
Raven would have glared a hole in the door if she could have and almost said no. Was so close to laughing and saying "Stay away from me traitor or I'll do things that would have made my father cringe." As soon as the thought was in her head Raven cursed in a whispery sound and shook her head. That was uncalled for. Now she was the one acting immature. Raven told herself to answer it, have a calm discussion with Tera, and get on with life. Nobody had to die. Right?
Raven sighed and began moving towards the door. "Sure." She responded, barely loud enough for Tera to hear. Thoughts were falling through her head like raindrops and she couldn't seem to focus on one. What does she want to talk about? Where is Beast Boy? Why did she have to talk to me? Why did she have to come back? Where did she come from? Why? Why? Why? Was what her mind finally settled on. All this happened in a matter of seconds, the time it took for her to cross her room and begin to open the door. As the door slid open Raven started to talk.
"What do you need Tera?" She asked immediatly and Tera looked at her in the same way she always had. A mixture of confusion, jealousy, and false kindness.
"Just wanted to see if you were okay...and suggest that we go outside to talk." Tera said in a breathy voice that was made to make her sound more sick then she was. A put on, Raven was sure.
"What's wrong with right here?" Raven asked softly and then rolled her eyes at Tera's timid expression. "Fine." She only obliged so that this would be over with faster.
The two walked down the hall and towards the elevator that was near the living room. Tera had a slight limp, or at least was limping, and Raven fought the urge to roll her eyes again. Raven actually cheered up a bit as she heard a bit of the conversation from the living room before boarding the elevator with the girl she hated.
"Starefire stop drinking the katsup girl! We have to get a new bottle every week and I won't have any for my hotdogs!" Cyborg's voice called followed by Starfire's confused giggle.
"Why would you eat the warm earth animal Cyborg?" She asked genuinly and Cyborg groaned. Beast Boy's excited laugh followed and Raven could tell he was grinning.
"Yeah why do you eat those Cyborg! Tofu dogs are much better!" The green boy shouted right as the elevator doors closed and Tera and Raven began their descent downwards. Silence engulfed them, even though Tera was humming in a happy way, and Raven felt like if she was in the elevator much longer she would blow up. Or maybe blow Tera up.
Finally with a slight beep the elevator reached the bottom floor and Raven and Tera were soon scaleing out onto the rocks that faced the ocean surrounding titan tower. Tera sat down but Raven remained standing and waited for Tera to say something. Finally she did.
"Raven I wanted to make things right with the titans. All the titans. I've been here for two days and I told you what I remember last." She said quietly and looked up at Raven. Raven nodded indifferently.
"But you still hate me. You don't trust me." Tera replied then smiled slowly. "I don't blame you..."
"What?" Raven's voice was interested now and that was just what Tera had been looking for.
"I don't blame you for not trusting me. Those saps in the tower do but little Raven doesn't." Tera laughed and her voice was stronger now, not at all helpless or hurt. Raven's eyes flashed angrily and her hands glew purple as she prepared to attack Tera.
"Why the hell do you keep doing this!?" She shouted angrily and Tera laughed again. She stood up and glanced at the tower once, twice, then Raven suddenly had the sickening feeling that she was trapped. A moment later a blanket of blackness covered her and a large knot formed on the back of her head. Raven dropped to the ground, unconcouis, laying next to the rock Tera had just used to knock her out.
"Because it's so much fun." Tera whispered and slowly began to silently drap Raven's body back to the tower. Get rid of little Raven, say that she ran away, then use the titans depression against them.
"Slade doesn't have to make evil plans for me anymore." She said proudly and began to think up the story she would tell the titans.
