Afterglow
Ch. 4: Answer
Author's Note: Due to various threats on my life...and my soul (coughmischiefmakercough) I am doing a update. Be placated, you beasts!
Disclaimer: Teen Titans is still not mine.

If it takes a whole life I won't break I won't bend
It'll all be worth it worth it in the end
'Cause I can only tell you what I know
That I need you in my life
And when the stars have all burned out
You'll still be burning so bright
Cast me gently into morning for the night has been unkind

Cyborg returned to the real world just as he had left it, kissing Raven's unconscious form. He broke the kiss and straightened, but didn't let go of her hand. "I promise," He whispered, kissing the back of her hand, then set it back on the bed. With one last look at her peaceful face, he left.
"Let's go," Cyborg walked by the waiting room and the other Titans without stopping. They looked at each other, then scrambled after the retreating teen.
"Cyborg! Wait up!" Robin, Starfire, and Beast Boy finally caught up to him and fell into step. "Where are we going?"
"Azarath," Cyborg didn't look at Robin as he answered. "Raven's homeworld," They emerged out of the hospital into the dawning morning. Cyborg's pace never faltered.
The dark blue and purple planet came into view. "There it is. Azarath," Cyborg told the others through the comm.
"It's so dark," Starfire mused.
"That's because there's no sun for miles," Beast Boy chimed in. "How they manage to survive is completely beyond me,"
"They find some way." Robin responded.
"Life always finds a way," Cyborg finished Robin's thought. Their rocket, the modified T-Sub, rocked slightly as it hit the atmosphere and descended toward the ground.
