Speedy narrowed his eyes as he the blue figure approached him and notched an arrow to his bow. He watched as the figure stopped moving towards him and prepared to fight. Without any hesitation Speedy aimed for his target and shot. The arrow whistled through the air heading towards Speedy's mysterious opponent who was none other then………
"Aqualad!" gasped Speedy; he had just realized who he had shot at. Speedy watched as Aqualad nimbly dodged out of the way of the impending arrow and sent a spiral of water (that he pulled from a nearby pool) towards Speedy. Speedy leapt to the side to avoid the stream of water coming towards him. Aqualad obviously hadn't realized who he was.
"Aqualad!" yelled Speedy "It's me!" He hastily threw himself to the ground to avoid a massive beam of water that Aqualad intended to hit him with.
"Aqualad!" he yelled again, Aqualad just looked blankly at him. It was obvious that his mind was elsewhere. Speedy sighed and began running towards Aqualad, intending to wave a hand over his face or something.
(Raven)
"What are they doing?" Raven shook her head as she watched Aqualad and Speedy fight. She hovered above them and watched what they were doing. After Speedy had dodged beam after beam of water and hadn't gotten any closer to Aqualad, Raven decided to intervene. She chanted her mantra, Azarath Metrion Zinthos and her hands glowed black. She then motioned towards Aqualad. A stream of black magic shot towards Aqualad and surrounded him. She then proceeded to do the same thing for Speedy. Once they were both completely incased in her magic; Raven slowly floated to the ground and stood between them. Speedy was looking at her with a grateful look on his face, Aqualad was just staring blankly.
'So what's this all about?" she asked them
"I ummm"began Speedy "I thought Aqualad was Cascade"
"Oh" Raven raised an eyebrow "So you decided to attack him?"
"Well yes" admitted Speedy
"and he attacked back?"
"Yes"
"Did you realize it was Aqualad after he attacked you?" she asked skeptically
"Well, yes" he replied
"Then why didn't you stop?"
"I did. He just kept attacking!" said Speedy hotly
"Right", Raven turned to Aqualad "What about you?"
"Huh?" came Aqualad's answer
"Why did you attack Speedy?" asked Raven patiently
"I ahhm, wha…what?" he asked, looking like he'd just woken up.
"I said" repeated Raven "Why did you attack Speedy?"
"I attacked Speedy?" asked Aqualad looking thoroughly confused
"Yes you did" said Raven
"Oh" he said ruefully, looking like he had absolutely no idea what they were talking about "Well, ahhhh sorry?"
"Man Aqualad" said Speedy, laughing "You're practically a zombie when you're daydreaming!"
"What exactly were you thinking about?" asked Raven curiously
Aqualad blushed and muttered incoherently
"Pardon?"
"I umm, I was just….ummm….nothing" he said finally
"Right" drawled Raven "We'll leave it at that for now"
She began to walk away
"Ahhh Raven?" asked Speedy
"Yes?"
"Can you release us now?"
