Disclaimer: Yeah, I don't own anything :-/ If I did, the show would be ya know… different lol, but I give credit to all the right people.
A/N: SO this is my first Teen Titan Fic… ever… I'm not gonna lie… it's focused on Raven/Beast Boy, maybe more so Raven then anyone. It will have Rob/Star. Idk… if you have a similar plot, or storyline, or anything, I swear I did not take it! You don't understand I think I have like this really cool "original" Idea, it never is! So if you have a similar story line, Review, tell me, I'll give ya credit in some form :) I'll try at least. ANYWAY… if ya like Raven, Raven/BB, and Rob/Star, take a look at the story, Review tell me what ya think. Since I'm not use to writing this type of story it might be a little weird, but if I continue it'll get better I promise. If the character's are a little OOC, sorry, I can only do SO much! Also it really doesn't have much to do with the comic books ((never read them)) and very little to do with the TV Show ((live by those religiously)). Well, Hope you Enjoy. R&R… ((And any of my T70S show people, heh… I'll attempt to put out a chapter to EGWC :) Please don't hurt me!))
….On to the story!!....
"Ebony! Ebony! Come on! This isn't a joke!" A woman's voice screamed through the darken park. She stood and looked around. Her hair, pulled into a tight bun as her black dress whipped around her legs from the summer night's breeze. "Ebony!"
"Did you find her?" The tall woman spun around, meeting two deep green eyes.
"No, I have no idea where she could have run off to, either." The woman sighed, attempting to keep her emotions in check. The green-eyed man gently kissed the woman's head.
"I'll go look near the lake, go sit for a little while, you're using up way too much energy."
"I'm fine, I'm fine." The woman smiled and began walking towards the swing set.
"Rae… maybe it's time we go back." The green-eyed man stated. The woman, Rae, turned and looked at him.
"Back where?" She asked, knowing the answer.
"Home, they'll be more protection."
"…No… we promised ourselves we'd give her a normal life." Rae turned and looked towards the swings. "Ebony! Ebony!"
The green-eyed man shook his head, turned, and began screaming towards the lake.
Rae looked back and watched her husband run towards the lake, shouting their only child's name. She bowed her head, allowing a tear or two to fall.
"We promised." She mumbled to herself.

"Mommy!" A tiny child, no older then five or six, ran to the tall woman, arms outspread, and a huge smile on her face. Her dark purple hair bouncing behind her as her dress fluttered around her pale legs.
"Hello Ebony!" The woman laughed as she hugged her daughter. "Did you have fun with Storm and Eclipse?"
"We played hide and seek. I won!" Ebony giggled.
"Good job." Rae and Ebony turned to the green-eyed man.
"Daddy!" Ebony shouted, reaching for her father. The man smiled and took the child, as he gently kissed his wife.
"Let's go see if we can find Uncle Victor, he has a new game he wants to play with us."
"Be careful!" Rae said as her family headed to the living room.
"Raven?" The tall woman, turned to meet a redheaded goddess.
"Hey Star. Thanks for letting us come for a visit for the day." Raven half-smiled.
"Yeah, no problem, Storm and Eclipse loves Ebony's company." Starfire smiled and sat at the long kitchen table. Raven picked up her cup of tea and sat across from the Tamarian Princess.
"Ebony loves visiting you guys, and seeing Cyborg and stuff. They're her family." Raven smiled and looked towards the living room.
"…I heard Beast Boy talking to Robin. You know… about Ebony." Raven looked at Starfire. "Why didn't you tell us that she was endangered?"
"Starfire… it's nothing BB and I can't handle. I mean… we're fine." Raven said, unsurely. She looked at her long time friend. The steady green eyes, the long red hair twisted into some, off the face, hairdo, the incredible body, and the soft features that stated unconditional love. "I promised myself that she would have a normal life."
Starfire nodded and looked toward the doorway to see a tiny Koloa Bear rushing to raven. Starfire looked at the purple Koloa bear as she snuggled against Raven.
"How normal of a life can you give her Raven?"

Raven sat at the kitchen table, a huge cup of tea in front of her. Her husband was leaning against the counter as their teenage daughter ranted and raved about living in a giant "T."
"Other kids, other NORMAL kids live in houses. Big houses, small houses, HOUSES! I live in a giant T!" Ebony ranted, her dark purple hair tied back as her dark green eyes glared at her parents.
"You know, Storm and Eclipse are happy, they don't begin screaming at their parents randomly in the night!" Raven looked at Beast Boy, who was now referred to as either Gar or BB. It took A LOT to anger the changeling, and right now, he was seething.
"Robin and Star don't have to take some weird little syrup thing so that they aren't GREEN! BRUCE and DAWN aren't pale and weird!" Ebony shouted, angry with her parents for even thinking of having children.
Raven sat and listened to her daughter, her only daughter, her only child. Her emotions were generally in check, thank god because Raven knew she would blow up the city. Luckily, Ebony's powers were more control; Ebony could easily go on rants without the Tower exploding.
"I want to live with Daphne." Ebony said a more quiet tone.
"Who?" Gar said, confused.
"Daphne Weathers, her best friend." Raven said, looking at her husband, he stared back at her and then there daughter.
"Why?"
"I told her that you guys were going to Africa and Europe you know further Dr. Logan's research." She looked pointedly at her father. "Her parents offered to let me stay with them till you guys got home."
Raven stared at her daughter. Gar, threw up his arms and glared at his child.
"You know what Ebony do whatever the hell you want!" He shouted, and walked out. Raven watched him, that's not how he felt, she knew it, and Ebony knew it too. The man was sending off so much emotional energy, Raven wanted to cry.
"Mom…" Raven turned and looked at her daughter.
"Ebony… what did we do? We had no choice, we had to protect you."
"From my little old grandpa? Well, great, you guys got rid of him, why couldn't we go back to being normal! Dad created the stupid syrup, he's not green, why couldn't I be normal?!" Ebony looked at her mother, if there was ever a time to want to hide, it was now.
Raven looked at her daughter.
"Fine… go live with Daphne… I'll call the Weather's in the morning." Raven stood up. "I'm too tired to deal with this."
"Thank you." Ebony stated and ran up to her room, probably to E-Mail Daphne.
Raven sat back down at the table and placed her head down. She heard the lamp exploding in the living room. She didn't care.

A tall woman with overflowing purple hair stood in front of the original Teen Titans. They weren't in costume, in their super hero glory. They were ordinary humans, standing in front of an angry woman.
"Mother, father." The woman nodded to Raven and Beast Boy. The woman was no older then eighteen, with a repressed anger to kill.
Gar was glaring angrily at the child, as Raven stood calm and seemingly unemotional.
"I told you I'd have my normal life. I told you." Ebony stand, anger and upset. Gar scuffed at his only child.
"You're in the middle of a field, red eyed, angry, screaming at your parents, ready to turn into a lion. How normal is that?"
"Scarred?"
"Of you? Ha!"
"You should be!" Ebony was about to go blasting her own energy towards her father, until a black bubble formed around her. "Mother, mother, mother… I'm more powerful then you." Ebony shot the bubble only to have her energy bounce back at her.
"You might have control over your powers, but trust me I have much more strength." Raven enclosed the circle until it formed perfectly around her only daughter.
"Well sorry, mommy, but we're done for the time at hand." Ebony muttered a few words and disappeared.
Raven and Beast Boy looked to where their daughter once stood. Beast Boy muttered a few obscenities. While Raven relaxed to find her center.
"What are we going to do?" They both heard Star's small voice. Gar looked from Star to Raven.
"I guess go home, and do some research, before that girl does some major damage." Raven nodded.
"We'll have Storm and Eclipse begin a search for her." Robin said, looking at his two friends.
"Sounds like a plan to me." Cyborg stated and turned to go back home. Robin looked at the two parents and gently redirected Starfire to the direction of the tower.
"Rae…" Gar looked at his wife. She was staring into space. "We'll get her back."
"I just wanted her to have a normal life… this wasn't suppose to happen." And she broke down. Gar smiled slightly and took Raven into his arms.
"She did have a normal life, two parents who loved her more then life, a wonderful family, great friends, and support, she always had support."
Raven just cried harder.

*CRASH*
Raven shot up from her bed. She looked around to see one of her crystals on the ground shattered to tiny pieces.
She sat up and placed her head into her hands.
That was easily one of her longest and most emotional premonitions/dreams. She quickly found her center and tried to relax.
There was no way it was just a "simple" dream. It was too detailed, and it was way too real. Raven pushed the covers off her and looked at the clock. It was nearing six in the morning. She got up and walked to the door.
She had to keep calm, she needed her tea and then she would come back to analyze the "dream." Right now, her heart was thumping, and her body ached.
Worst of all… her emotions were scattering. She would definitely have to take a trip through her mirror.

Starfire was making pancakes, a simple enough meal. She was humming softly to herself. Ignorant to the world.
"Starfire?" The Tamarain Princess turned and smiled brightly to her gothic friend.
"Good morning friend Raven."
"What are you doing up so early?" Raven asked, a little weary.
"I was hungry." Starfire smiled. Raven nodded and placed her kettle on the stove. "What fell?"
"What?' Raven's eyes shot up.
"I heard a crash… from your room…" Starfire said, unsurely, scared that it was too early to really be talking with the demon-tress of the tower.
"Oh, I… I…" Raven sat and thought of an excuse. But Raven didn't hide her emotions fast enough, and Starfire, the emotion reader of the tower, knew something was up.
"Raven, please, what is wrong?" Starfire asked concern wretched into her face.
"Nothing!" Raven suddenly shouted, a crash heard in the living room. She instantly settled down. 'Maybe this dream of sorts has me more wound up then I thought,' she mused to herself. She looked at Star who was neither scarred nor nervous more like upset.
"I highly doubt nothing is wrong, now please Raven. I know that you can not let out your emotions but—"
"I'm fine." Raven's monotone voice cut Star off. Raven made her tea and left the kitchen.
"Very well!" Raven heard as she left. She knew Starfire was a little peeved, and she'd apologize later. She had her head down, trying to get control over her emotions; she definitely had to get to the mirror now.
She looked up and slammed into a lean, muscular body. She waited to fall back, instead found two arms wrap around her body.
"Are you ok?" She looked up and was met with two deep green eyes. She pulled away and dusted herself off. She looked on the floor to find her tea in a puddle.
"I'm fine." She said, holding her head, as a sharp pain began to form. She closed her eyes, took a breath, and reopened them to find the same deep green eyes staring at her, with a small cup in his hands.
"You don't seem fine." She was definitely too tired to deal with this.
"Beast boy… I'm fine." She avoided looking up at him and gently used her powers to transport the tea back into the cup.
"Ok, well I'll take this back to the kitchen." He smiled at her and began heading towards the kitchen. Raven watched as he walked away.
'He doesn't change too much; he still lets off a lot of emotional energy… Dammit.' She hurriedly got back to her room.

"What's up with Raven?" Beast boy asked as he got into the kitchen.
Starfire was sitting at the table looking though a magazine, pancakes stacked in the middle of the table.
"I'm not sure, she seemed odd this morning." Starfire said looking at the changeling,
"Odd? She was down right weird." Beast Boy said, pouring a new cup of tea for the gothic super heroine. "I'm going to bring her some more tea, and maybe some Tylenol, she looked paler then usual."
"You are concerned?" Starfire mused. Beast Boy suddenly grew rigid.
"Well, she is my friend." Beast Boy said, thinking he was off the hook.
"Yes, but you seem more concerned then when Robin threw the remote at her head and went to his room." Starfire stated.
Beast Boy looked at the royal alien. "Um…"
"Don't worry Beast Boy, I shall not tell the others." And she went back to her magazine. Beast Boy looked at the alien shook his head and head down the corridor.
Starfire smiled. "Beast boy and Raven, sitting in a tree, k-i-s-s-i-n-g." She laughed a bit. She was happy that she listened to Cyborg teasing Beast Boy.
*
Beast Boy knocked on Raven's door. His hand was a little burned from the tea.
"Raven! Open up! I got some steaming tea for you!" The door to the room opened. Beast Boy, peered in, he saw absolutely no one in the room. Shrugging his shoulders, he walked in, placed the cup on the dresser, and hurried out.
Raven came from the shadows, picking up her tea. She looked at the close door and sighed a little. In a quick sip, she finished the tea and turned to her mirror.
'This is going to be a long day.'
