*~*~*~*~*~*
Outside the Tower, the city slept, darkness having fallen. The parks were empty and the street lights
on to guide the stragglers home.
Inside the Tower sat Beastboy on the floor, legs crossed and eyes shut peacfully. Upon closer
inspection one could see that he was wearing all black and was indeed imersed fully in meditation. A mug
of steaming herbal tea sat beside him. It seemed that all efforts of recapturing Robin had been abandoned
in light of Beastboy's new personality.
Also inside the Tower, though far away from Beastboy, Robin lurked inside his own bedroom. For those
who have never seen Robin's room, it is covered in posters of various villans, newspaper clippings from
Gotham, and other things glorifying the greatness of Batman, his mentor and idol. Not anymore.
The walls were bare now, painfully so. The posters had been abandoned, tossed into a crumpled heap on
the floor. Robin looked around criticly at the walls, a paintbrush in hand, several cans of paint at his
feet. He would make this room much cheerier, yes indeed he would.
And lastly, inside the Tower, more specifically inside Raven's room, a creepy mirror lay shrouded in
mystery and filled with the emotions of a teenage alien.
~*~
Raven was about to scream,and knowing full well that this place would simply suck up her emotions
like a sponge and that the world wouldn't come to a chaotic end. However, years of study in control over
her feelings resulted in Raven taking several extremely deep breaths and turning calmly to the causes of
her frustration, namely Starfire and Raven's own extra-friendly counterpart. The perky teens were
bantering playfully over who was the cutest movie star.
"Ahem." The talking continued. "Ahem." Obviously Raven was being totally ignored. "AHEM!"
The pair looked up expectantly. "Ah, Raven," Star squealed happily. "You can decide for us! Tell us,
who is cuter, Daniel Radciffe or Orlando Bloom?"
Raven actually considered voicing her opinion for a moment, then decided to chew them out instead.
"How can you be think of that at a time like this! We are here to find the antidote to save the boys, or
did you forget?"
Suddenly the friendly Raven dissappeared, leaving Star to face Raven's wrath alone. Well, what was
she supposed to do, she was friendliness, not loyalty. Meanwhile tears were begining to well up in Star's
eyes.
"I am sorry Raven, I should not have forgotten our mission." She hung her head.
Raven felt bad then, realizing that it wasn't Starfire's fault, it was her own, or rather a part of
her's fault. Curse friendliness.
"It's okay Starfire," she said, making amends. "We need to find knowledge."
"Knowledge," Star echoed, "Why?"
"Because my knowledgable counterpart should know where the anitidote is. Or at least what it is."
Star nodded in understanding.
"So all we have to do is find her...?"
"It won't be that simple. Knowledge, I assume, knows that we are here already. That would mean she
also knows what we are looking for."
"Is that not good," Star asked innocently.
"It varies. Knowledge holds the power of predicting all of the possible outcomes, and if she feels
that our odds are bad of succeeding, she won't bother appearing to us."
"Why not," Star asked, "Why would she not even let us try?"
"You try telling knowledge that she's wrong, see how far you get," Raven suggested sarcastically.
"Enough talking. We have to keep looking."
