I still do not own Teen Titans, the characters, DC comics, or Cartoon Network.
This story is a sequel to Titan Down: The Fall of Garfield Logan. The Sequel deals specifically with the relationship of my favorite Teen Titans. Please read and review (if you haven't already) the first story.

Thanks to those who expressed concern about my asthma. Fortunately, my job as a taxi driver is very understanding when I need time off. Now…back to the story.
Titan Recovers: The Rising of Gar and Raven
A fanfiction story by Lar Lindor
Chapter Twelve: Some Revelations
"Score," Marvin said to his sister. "I told you I'd find it first."
"You were just lucky," sniffed Wendy.
What was the prize? This was decent picture of a girl standing with other girls, who were talking to Wonder Girl and Raven. This was, the twins were certain, the elusive shape shifter. Was this her normal appearance or was she 'copying' someone's face?
TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
"Ahem." A slim pink haired girl cleared her throat, demanding Robin and Miss Martian's attention. Her hair was worn long and straight down, not much like the style, she wore as a member of the HIVE. Her attire consisted of a pair of dark jeans, and a black tee shirt.
"H'lo, Jinx," Robin greeted. "Thanks for coming."
"What choice did I have," she sighed. "Bart practically kidnapped me."
"C'mon, Jinxie," the speedster begged. "You promised to be polite."
Kid Flash took a minute and introduced his girlfriend to Miss Martian. Robin then explained why he had asked for the girl ex-villain.
"Lots of people tried out for the HIVE," she mused. "I only remember one shape changer though. She wasn't invited to the organization. Her name was something like Copy Kathy."
Robin's all night research had been successful. There was one clear picture of a young female usher talking to Raven. B.B. had been e-mailed the picture. The same girl dragged him upstairs. They had their usher, and they had one name: Kathy.
"Is this her?" Robin asked, showing the picture.
"Looks like her," Jinx nodded.
"Where do we go from here?" Miss Martian asked.
"If any of you are decent hackers, we break into the HIVE's records," Jinx grinned.
"I got this one," Wendy smiled. She was embarrassed to have been beaten by her brother on the store tapes. Wendy would make sure she got the credit for this one. The siblings were very, very competitive.
TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
Cyclops was signaled by a delivery helicopter. He allowed them to land on the roof after careful check of their identity. The big man smiled at the package, and signed for it.
A three minute walk put him in front of Raven's door. He knocked twice. A slightly annoyed Rae came to the door.
"What do you want, Victor?" she frowned. "I'm trying to meditate."
"I'll just take these flowers marked for you then," Cy smirked. "Maybe Sara…"
"Flowers for me?" she cut in. "Who from…I ?."
"One dozen black roses to Raven," he smiled.
She ripped them out of his metallic paw. "With love, from Garfield," she grinned from ear to ear. "There's a note with it too."
"What's the note say?" he asked as we walked back into her room.
"That's none of your damned business," she answered frostily. Her powers slammed the door in his face. Cyclops laughed. He guessed there wouldn't be a grumpy Raven around the Tower for awhile.
TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
"Dear Rae,
Let's make up. I miss you. Look for me tonight.
Fondly,
B.B.
Raven sighed. Her broken heart felt whole again from those simple words.
Just then, Rae's communicator went off. "Raven," she said simply.
"I'm on the roof," announced a familiar voice.
"Be there in five minutes," she insisted. It was more like fifteen minutes. She changed to a cute blouse Cassie had helped her pick out, and her favorite pair of jeans. Then she ran a brush through her hair, and brushed her teeth. Smiling at her reflection, she was prepared for their probably short encounter.
"Azarath, Metrion, Zinthos!" she chanted. Instantly she was on the roof.
There was no Beast Boy on the roof. Was this a ruse in order to attack her? They'd find an angry Raven is a frightening foe. She reached out with her powers, searching for the intruder. Her anger turned to joy instantly.
"I know you're out there, B.B. "She looked around impatiently. "Garfield Logan- quit teasing me this instant!"
"Okay," he grinned, appearing from seemingly nowhere. He looked into her eyes for only a second. The kiss she gave him more than made up for the cruel misunderstanding.
"I'm guessing you missed me, too," Gar grinned, as she finally let him breathe.
Raven blushed at her actions. "Yeah, I guess I did."
"Robin wants me to stay away from the Tower for now. He's trying to set a trap for 'Copy Chick,' or whatever she calls herself. He wants Beast Boy and Raven still furious with each other."
"Dammit," she swore. "I…"
He held up his hand. "Wait before you vent. Can you put a magic bubble thing-y around us so we can't be seen or heard?"
"Yeah, why do you want to know?" she asked.
He pulled out a small boombox. "Milady, may I have this dance?"
"You may indeed," she grinned.
There was lots of slow dancing, and a few warm kisses…
Raven just threatened to break my typing fingers if your lovable author didn't quit spying on them.
