"Just leave me alone, Beast Boy!" Raven screamed, covering her ears as she hid behind their door.
"Raven, you need to talk to me! Tell me what's wrong!" Beast Boy said. "You can't push people out of your life!"
Raven slide down to the bottom of her door, still covering her ears. She shut her eyes shut also, wanting Beast Boy to stop already, but it wasn't working. "I don't want your help! Now leave me alone!"
Beast Boy was about to say something, but decided against it. "Alright, fine Raven. If that's how you want it, then fine! I'll leave you alone forever, and you can keep all your problems to yourself instead of having your family help you!"
Raven's eyes popped open, tears quickly formed and she cried. Slowly she brought her legs into her chest, resting her chin on top of one knee as she sat there by herself.
"Is Mommy going to be ok?" Lilith asked Beast Boy when he walked into the Common Room. Beast Boy sighed, picking up his six year old daughter in his arms. Keyon and Nightstar quickly ran up and tackled him with a hug on each of his leg.
"How is she?" Nightwing asked, walking around from the counter top.
Beast Boy looked at his daughter, moving the two violet colored strands behind her ear in front of her green hair. He kissed the top of her head, resting his head on top of hers. "She needs time." Beast Boy whispered before running a hand through Nightstar's brown and Keyon's black hair.
Why, do you always do this to me?
Why, couldn't you just see through me?
How come, you act like this
like you just don't care at all?
Raven still sat in front of the door, tears falling from her eyes. She didn't mean to yell at the children! The demon side just took over, and there was no way for her to control it. Poor Lilith, Keyon and Nightstar; their faces just broke Raven's heart in two when she stopped. If she had the power to go back in time, maybe she would have tried to stay in her room for just a little while more.
What was worse was the others tried to calm her down, but it just made matters worse. The demon side came out again, and she screamed at her friends, even her husband. Starfire even broke down into tears! Raven could possibly never forgive herself for today.
The only person who was able to calm her fully down was Beast Boy, so why did she tell him to leave her alone? Why didn't she open the door and quickly pull him in by his shirt like other times?
Do you expect me to believe I was the only one to fall?
I can feel, I can feel you near me, even though you're far away
I can feel, I can feel you baby, why
It's not supposed to feel this way
I need you, I need you
More and more each day
It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you, I need you
Tell me, are you and me still together?
Tell me, do you think we could last forever?
Tell me, why
"Daddy, will you go see her again?" Lilith asked when Beast Boy put her back down onto the ground.
Beast Boy kneeled, looking at his daughter's cyan colored eyes. He could see Lilith already forgave her mother and now was scared on what was going on with her. "Of course I will, but not now."
"Maybe you should go see her," Keyon suggested, "who knows what she might be doing."
"Kids, I've known her longer than you do and I'm positive she needs at least an hour to calm down. A lot has happened these past years because of the whole 'demon' thing."
"It is like mood swings," Starfire clarified, "except the very bad ones for her."
"Well, if you guys won't go, then I guess us kids will have to," Nightstar said, walking over to the door but her father stopped her.
"Mar'i Grayson, do you not remember what happened before when you disturbed her?" Nightstar asked his daughter. "What on Earth would make her feel any better by seeing you kids again?"
"Uncle Richard is right," Lilith said, grabbing her stuff brown dog from the dining room table, "this is a family matter and only Daddy and I will deal with it." She took her father's hand and led them both out the Common Room again.
"She's just like her mother," Cyborg pointed out, "Always doing what she wants to do and won't let anyone stop her."
"She does have part of her chromosomes," Keyon said.
"Kevin Stone, you're not supposed to learn about that until you get to high school!" Bumblebee yelled, shaking a finger at her son.
"My genius comes from Dad; what did you expect?" Keyon joked, having the adults grow a small smile.
Hey, listen to what we're not saying
Let's play, a different game than what we're playing
Try, to look at me and really see my heart
"Mommy, it's your daughter and husband," Lilith said as she knocked on their door, "please let us in."
Raven lay underneath the covers, hiding her head below her pillow to keep the voices in her own head out, but of course that wasn't working. Soon however, she heard her daughter's voice, and she knew that wasn't coming from her head for it was soft and far away.
"Mommy?" Lilith called again. Raven took her head out from under her pillow and used her powers to open the door, having Lilith run inside with Beast Boy right behind her. Lilith jumped into the bed, getting underneath the covers along side with her mother. Beast Boy sat on the edge of the bed, watching his wife and daughter.
"Hi," Raven greeted her daughter, but it came out more as a whisper.
"Hello," Lilith said. She caught Raven's eyes red and puffy so the first thing she asked was, "How are you feeling?"
"Shouldn't I be the one asking the question? I'm sorry for what I said back at the Common Room."
Lilith shook her head. "I know you didn't mean anything; we all do. You just left all of a sudden and that scared us. That's why Daddy has been trying to get you to talk and Uncle Richard has been worried sick."
"Leave it to your uncle to be worried about his family."
Do you expect me to believe I'm gonna let us fall apart?
I can feel, I can feel you near me, even when you're far away
I can feel, I can feel you baby, why
"Why don't you talk with Daddy, Mommy?" Lilith asked, hugging her dog close. "Did you know he's been crying?"
Beast Boy shushed her from saying anything else, but it didn't work. "He's also been praying that you'd be ok."
"He has, has he?" Raven asked, looking at her husband with a small smile.
"I don't know what she's talking about, Rae. She went crazy," Beast Boy stuttered.
"Have not!" Lilith yelled, sitting on the bed. She walked her father with her dog, having Beast Boy laugh. "I only state the truth!"
"Prove it!" Beast Boy said.
"Oh, God of Africa, please hear me out there," Lilith jumped off the bed and mimicked her father's voice, "my wife needs help, and you're the only one to save her from whatever's wrong." Beast Boy screamed before chasing her around the room. "Please let Rachel be alright, for I don't know what I'd do without her." Lilith used her Azarathean powers to float up so Beast Boy didn't reach her. "I haven't asked anything from you in years, so just do me a favor and grant this wish."
"You're dead Lilith Samantha Logan!" Beast Boy screamed.
"You can't kill me for I am your daughter!" Lilith said in a dark Vader voice.
It's not supposed to feel this way
I need you, I need you
More and more each day
It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you, I need you
Tell me, are you and me still together?
Tell me, you think we could last forever?
Tell me, why
"Lilly, do you mind if your father and I can talk alone?" Raven asked, getting out of bed.
"Sure, Mommy, I'll be in the Common Room." Lilith used her powers to sink through the roof, leaving the two alone.
Beast Boy placed his hands in his pockets, looking at the ground. Raven crossed her arms, looking at the roof incase their daughter decided to come back the same way she left.
"Do you still love me, Garfield?" Raven asked, not looking at him.
Beast Boy looked up. "Have you gone crazy? That has got to be the dumbest question you ever asked."
Raven smirked before looking into his eyes again, seeing the twinkle she always seen since the first day they met each other on the island.
So go and think about whatever you need to think about
Go on and dream about whatever you need to dream about
And come back to me when you know just how you feel, you feel
I can feel, I can feel you near me, even though you're far away
I can feel, I can feel you baby, why
"I'm sorry," Raven and Beast Boy said together and blushed when they heard the other.
"No, it's not your fault," Beast Boy said the same time Raven said, "Why are you sorry?"
"I'm the one who got the children to scream."
"I'm the one who left you alone when you needed someone there by your side."
"I hurt everyone in this tower."
"I broke your heart into pieces."
It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you
More and more each day
It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you, I need you
Tell me
"I love you," They said together again before kissing. It didn't last long however for they heard a giggle from far away. Beast Boy opened the door and saw their six year old daughter standing there with the biggest smile on her face.
"How much did you see?" Beast Boy asked, kneeling down in front of her as Raven walked up behind him, placing a hand on his shoulder.
"Everything!" Lilith giggled, "I'm glad to know Mommy's ok."
"Of course, with a husband like your father, I will always be ok," Raven whispered to her daughter, kissing the top of Beast Boy's head.
"It's great to know you're feeling better," Bumblebee interrupted the Logan family. "Keyon couldn't help but wanted to see if you three were fine."
"And I'm glad you guys are," Keyon said, stepping from behind Bumblebee. "Even you, Lilith."
Lilith blushed, "T-thanks Keyon."
Beast Boy, Raven and Bumblebee laughed, hugging their children.
It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you
More and more each day
It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you, I need you
Tell me, are you and me still together?
Tell me, do you think we could last forever?
Tell me, why
"Kori, you're on!" Karen yelled, standing behind the curtains. Kori was doing some deep breathing before Rachel grabbed her arm and dragged her over to the middle of the stage.
"Now, are you sure you're not going to faint?" Rachel asked her best friend one last time. "We're miles from home and we can't have you pass out now."
"I am most positive," Kori finally said. "The deep breathing has helped!"
"That's great to hear 'cause it's time." Karen jumped over to her drums and Rachel with her guitar.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Yellow Dark Flowers!" Madison yelled at the opposite side of the curtains, having the audience scream and clap their hands for their favorite band.
Uh-huh,
Life's like this
Uh-huh, uh-huh
that's the way it is
'Cause life's like this
Uh-huh, uh-huh
that's the way it is
Kori walked over to the microphone stand, fixing it to her height before taking her hand that was palm down and flipping it over. "Chill out; what you yelling' for?" She waved her hand to the side. "Lay back, it's all been done before and if you could only let it be you will see."
"It's amazing how she can sing as a woman who knows perfectly good English," the stage director commented when he leaned to the side and Madison was standing there.
"I like you the way you are," Kori pointed to the stage, pretending someone special was there, 'when we're, driving in my car and you're talking to me one on one."
"That's because she learned from the best," Madison said, rolling her eyes before watching her three girls again.
Kori pointed to the inside of her mouth, "But you become somebody else 'round everyone else. Watching' your back like you can't relax. You're tryin' to be cool-you look like a fool to me!" She crossed her arms, "Tell me why do you have to go and make things so complicated?"Kori placed her two hands on her forehead, "I see the way you're acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated" She stuck a finger out as she counted, "Life's like this, you and you fall and you crawl and you break and you take. What you get and you turn it into honesty Promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it." She paused for a second before shaking her head and singing, "No, no, no."
Back at the Titans West Tower, Robin just got back from training, seeing Cyborg and Beast Boy sitting in front of the television. "Did you guys watch TV all day?" he asked when he walked into the kitchen to grab a water bottle from the fridge.
"Dude, you got to come see this," Beast Boy said.
Robin shrugged, walking over to where they sat and saw his two guy friends frozen. "What's wrong?"
Cyborg pointed to the screen and Robin turned his head, seeing the three girls that were rivals ever since they stepped foot into the music world, but their secret's been blown weeks agp. "Yellow Dark Flowers?"
"And the girl who's singing right now," Beast Boy gave the hint to his leader. Robin checked closer and he saw Starfire the one who's singing!
"You come over unannounced-dressed up like you're something else." Kori rolled her eyes, "Where you are and where you sat, you see you're making me laugh out." She threw out a small giggle and then a weird pose with her hands on her hips and chin high in the air, "When you strike a pose take off all your preppy clothes!" She pointed a finger in her mouth, hearing Karen laugh from behind her, "You know you're not fooling anyone when you become somebody else 'round everyone else. Watchin' your back like you can't relax. Tryin' to be cool you look like a fool to me!"
"Tell me why do you have to go and make things so complicated?"Kori placed her two hands on her forehead, "I see the way you're acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated" She stuck a finger out as she counted, "Life's like this, you and you fall and you crawl and you break and you take. What you get and you turn it into honesty Promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it." She paused for a second before shaking her head and singing, "No, no, no."
Kori placed her two hands up as she was trying to stop someone. "Chill out-what you yelling for? Lay back, it's all been done before and if you could let it be you will see somebody else 'round everyone else." She half turned, pointing to her back, "You're watching your back like you can't relax." Kori turned back to facing the crowd whole. "You're tryin' to be cool-you look like a fool to me, to me."
"Do I really try to act cool?" Robin asked his two teammates who turned their heads to look at him.
"Sadly," Cyborg started.
"Yes, Dude, you try too much," Beast Boy finished off for him without a sweat.
"You two are kicked off this team," Robin mumbled before leaning back against the couch and looking at the television for his girlfriend wasn't done singing yet.
"Tell me why do you have to go and make things so complicated?"Kori smiled wide as she was trying to laugh, "I see the way you're acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated" She stuck a finger out as she counted, "Life's like this, you and you fall and you crawl and you break and you take. What you get and you turn it into honesty Promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it." She paused for a second before shaking her head and singing, "No, no, no."
"Tell me why do you have to go and make things so complicated? I see the way you're acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated! Life's like this, you and you fall and you crawl and you break and you take. What you get and you turn it into honesty Promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it." The three girls sang the last part of the lyrics together, all for the one same person.
"No, no, no," Kori finished off.
