As soon as the group returned to Gar's apartment, Raven explained that she was going to attempt to journey as deep as she could into Terra's subconscious, in order to discern what was causing her headaches and power failures. Raven led her into the bedroom where they could meditate in quiet. They both sat down cross-legged on the floor.
"But, shouldn't we do something about that guy?"
Raven tensed. "He is of no concern to us at the moment," she replied as she extended her hands, palms facing upward.
Terra reached out, and placed her hands in Raven's.
"Now, close your eyes, and open your mind..."
-O-O-O-
Henry sat anxiously on the sofa. He didn't really know why he was so anxious, but everyone else seemed to be, and if they were a bit antsy, he guessed it was right for him to be as well. Alix was sitting on the couch next to him, reading a book that she had plucked from their host's bookcase. Garfield and Erik were sitting at the kitchen table, chatting amiably about who-knows-what. It all seemed very surreal to Henry.
Here I am, sitting in the apartment of one of the ex-Teen Titans. I mean, those guys were my heroes, and then here comes Terra, acting like they're her best buds. Just who is she? And how in the world does she know them so well?
"Okay, I need some answers!" Henry exclaimed loudly as he stood up from the couch.
"Shh! That door isn't soundproof," Alix hissed, jerking her head towards the closed bedroom door. "Raven needs to concentrate."
"Sorry," Henry began in a much quieter tone, before turning to Gar, "but I still want to know how Terra knows you and Raven."
"Like I said before, it's a long story," Gar answered simply.
Henry sat glumly back down on the sofa.
"Well, it looks like we have the time," Erik said.
Gar seemed to think about it for a moment before shaking his head. "My lips are sealed; if Terra wanted you to know, she'd have told you."
Am I the only one who remembers that the reason we all came here in the first place was to get back the metallic chromium? Henry wondered grumpily.
-O-O-O-
Both Terra's and Raven's eyes flashed open in the same instant, and where there was once the bright rays of the setting sun pouring in through the window, there was now just the dim glow of the city lights. They had been meditating for nearly a half hour.
"What did you see?"
Raven stood up silently, and walked across the room. "Coming?" she asked as she opened the door.
Terra hurried to her feet, and followed Raven into the living room. All eyes were on them, making Terra feel rather awkward. She took a seat on the couch next to Alix, who (along with Henry and Erik) had been filled-in by Gar on the events of the evening.
"How did it go?" Alix asked.
