Chapter 4: The Plan

Author's Note: Wow, there's already a few people telling me what they want the couplings. I'm so happy that there are some people that like this.

Devi and Raven began to discuss what should be done next until some beeping sound interrupted them. They both became quiet wondering what it was that was beeping. Raven sweat dropped when she realized what it was. "I think your communicator is going off?"

"My what?" Devi was confused; she began searching for the source of the beeping until she held a small machine that looked like a compact mirror. "What do I do now?" Raven face fault, but quickly reminded herself that Devi hasn't quite gotten used to all the high tech machines, because she's been asleep for over a decade. So Raven tried to motion with her hands hoping that Devi understood. Devi watched Raven trying to show her, Raven eventually sighed and got out her own that was similar to Devi's. She opened it up and put it to her mouth and began mouth some words. "Hello?"

"Thank god! I've been looking all over for you!!" Came Robin's voice. Devi stared at the thing like it was evil incarnated.

Letting out a loud scream that made Raven's ear's ring, she through the machine as far as she could throw it. Which went pretty far, Raven was amazed at how much power she had. Turning to Devi she was a bit confused at to why she did that action. "What's the matter?"

"Th..that THING!!! IT SUCKED ROBIN INTO IT AND TRAPPED HIM THERE!!!" Raven fell over anime style. She summoned her power and eventually the device returned to them.

She rolled her eyes at the childish girl. "It's not evil, Robin has one like this. And it enables you to communicate with him." She tried to explain to the other girl. Devi made an 'O' with her mouth, and took the device back.

"Is everything okay!?!" she heard Robin say. Devi hesitantly put it close to her mouth.

"Yeah, I'm sorry, I needed some fresh air. I wanted to just get out of that stupid place." The line was silent for a while. Both Raven and Devi were worried slightly what happened to him.

"Wellnext time. I want you to tell me, so I can go with you." Devi was surprised. His voice sounded so tender and sweet. Whenever they were at Slade's place, he was so cold. And yet he still had a soft spot. Devi smiled.

"All right I'll do that next time. But I want to get some more sleep so I'm heading back," she said softly into the device. Raven couldn't help but smile a little.

"I'll meet you there, and don't tell Slade that you went out without me." The other end went dead. Devi smiled at Raven.

"Well, I'll be keeping in touch with you." Raven nodded, she went through her pockets and pulled out another communicator and handed it to her.

"This is like the one you have, but this allows you to communicate with me. Don't forget about it and don't let Robin find it." Devi smiled and took it, they stared at each other until Devi made a surprise tackle. Devi gave Raven a huge hug and then let go. "What was that for?"

Raven watched as Devi made a soft smile, "I've never really had someone be my friend, other than Robin. We can be friends right?" She asked Raven in almost a worried type of voice. Raven chuckled.

"Yeah, we can be friends." Devi smiled with gratitude and hopped off the building to the streets below. Raven simply began to float and zoomed back to the Titans Tower. She didn't want to tell the boys quite yet, but she wanted to tell Starfire. She knew Star would be happy to hear this news.

Devi walked happily back to Slade's hideout. She was making her way across when someone jumped out of no where and tackled her hard. Making her slam into the wall. Warm liquid flowed down her forehead as she looked up to see who her attacker was. It was none other than Slade. She tried to scurry away, but he grabbed her by the collar and lifted her up, and punched her in the gut. "You went out without my permission!!!" He roared. He was angry she could tell, her nerves seemed to freeze. She was scared, wishing Robin was there.

"I'm sorry I won't do it again" she whimpered. She clutched her stomach as he stood over her. Devi did not dare to look at him in the eyes, instead she kept her focus on the ground, she felt her body begin to shake.

Finally she heard his footsteps walk away. "See to it that you don't." His authority was law, she had no freedom. She was a caged bird, silent tears came to her eyes as she weeped her sorrows.

Raven opened up the door to the main room of their tower. To see Beast Boy and Cyborg at it again on the video games, she looked around to see no bright and cheery red head. "Where's Starfire?" She asked, getting at least Beast Boy's attention as he turned his head around.

"I think she said that she was going to watch the sunset. So that means that she would be on the roof," There was a few odd sounds coming from the TV. Beast Boy quickly turned around and made a very loud whine. "NO WAY!!! THAT'S NOT FAIR!!!"

"HAHAHA!!!! EAT MY DUST!!!" Cyborg yelled as he pummeled the controller. Raven rolled her eyes at the two boys and walked back out of the room. But a certain pair of green eyes followed her as she went out of the room, and then they focused on the video game in front of them.

*******

As she entered the rooftop, she noticed a person sitting on the edge gazing at the sun setting. She slowly walked up to her, hoping that she wouldn't disturb her. "Hello Raven. What is on your mind?" Raven was mildly surprised but she shrugged it off.

"I was just wondering what you were doing," Raven said as she sat down next to Star. It was quiet between the two female Titans. Until Raven spoke up; "Do you still have hope in Robin?" She was worried that she hit a wrong nerve, cause she noticed Star stiffen.

Star let out a sigh, and kept her sad eyes on the disappearing sunset. "I do not know what to think now. I know you will say that Robin has gone bad, but I still believe that he still good deep down." Raven smiled she couldn't wait to tell her about what Devi said.

"Hey Star, what if I told you that you may be right?" Star finally took her eyes off the sunset, which was pretty much gone now. She stared wide-eyed at Raven who just kept on smiling.
