Hello. I is back. Wee-hoo! Break it down! Yeah!! Yayness!! Weeeeeeeeee--
what? Oh, right, the fic.
If Raven seems OOC, lemme just say one word: DUH! She lost her emotions and stuff, right? I'd act kinda weird myself if a fireball-spitting monster had crushed my personality.
And, I'm wondering if I should make this a no romance fic, or a romance. I've never written a romance before, but I've plotted a few out in my mind. Shouldn't be too hard, right? Okay, then. So, tell me if you want a romance or not.
To the people who said they sent the email to make this section: Eh, I guess that we all sent an email! ^-^
Disclaimer: Never did own the show. Wish I did. If I did, this wouldn't be a fic. It'd be the next episode! : P

"Man, how do we fight this thing?" Cyborg said, frustrated. "It's too big!"
"I've got an idea!" Beast Boy said. He transformed into a t-rex and stomped over to the monster. After a few moments, it had been defeated. Yeah, yeah, not much action, but the monster isn't the plot of the story, is it? Nook, it's not.
The other Titans cheered as Beast Boy transformed into his real self. "Good job, Beast Boy," Robin said."Now, is anyone missing?"
There were a few moments of silence as they realized Raven was missing. "Oh boy," Robin said. "Let's split up and look for Raven, then."
***
Raven woke up in a Dumpster. Sitting up, she looked around to find herself in an empty alleyway. 'What am I doing in a Dumpster?' she wondered.
Getting out of the Dumpster, she walked to the street connected to the alley. There were no people, but a lot of destroyed buildings. For a moment she wondered what had destroyed the buildings, before she remembered the monster. "That's right," she said out loud. "It crushed Titan Tower. I wonder if the others are okay."
Raven walked slowly down the street, looking for the other Teen Titans. She was part of the team, after all, and she had to make sure they were all right.
After awhile, she heard Starfire calling her name. She looked up, and saw Starfire flying above the streets. Raven waved to her. "Starfire!"
"Raven!" Starfire exclaimed, floating down to meet the other girl. "Oh, Raven, I am so glad you are all right! We were so worried about you!"
'Worried?' Raven thought. 'Glad? What do those mean again?' She couldn't quite remember.
"I see you're not hurt," Raven said. "How are the others?"
"Oh, they are fine," Starfire said, grinning, before squinting at Raven. "Raven, I think there is something wrong with you."
"Wrong?" Raven asked, and she looked down at herself. No blood or other damage. She looked back at Starfire. "What's wrong?"
"It's in your eyes," Starfire said, a strange flash in her own eyes. "You look, well, as if you've lost your soul!"
Comprehension filled Raven. She knew knew what Starfire was talking about now. "Yes, I think you might be right."
"What?" Starfire asked, the same flash in her eyes again. "What do you mean, Raven?"
"When the monster fell on Titan Tower, I think it crushed my mirror. It contains my emotions. But I feel fine. I'm okay."
A different look in Starfire's eyes now. She gasped. "Oh, Raven, I'm so sorry!"
"There's nothing to be sorry about," Raven said. "It's not your fault, and I'm in no pain."
Starfire grabbed Raven's arm. "Come, Raven, we must Robin about this!"
***
Beast Boy, Robin, and Cyborg were together, looking for Raven, when Starfire flew up to them, holding Raven's wrist. Relief flooded through Beast Boy, until he saw the distressed look on Starfire's face.
"You found Raven?" Robin said, relieved.
Starfire nodded, but said, "I think there is something wrong with her! How long will it take for the Titan Tower to be rebuilt?"
"Uh, about three hours," Robin said. "There's a computer in the basement that'll rebuild it. Why? Is there something wrong?"
Starfire nodded, while Raven shook her head. "No, nothing's wrong," Raven said in a monotone voice. "I'm not hurt. I'm fine."
Beast Boy stared at Raven. "I think you're right, Starfire," Beast Boy said. He got close to Raven and looked at her. She stared back with lifeless eyes. "I think she's a zombie!"
Starfire looked at the others, distressed. "No, that's not it. Um, Raven, could you explain what you told me?"
Raven nodded. "When we were fighting the monster, it fell on Titan Tower. When it did, it crushed my mirror."
"That's it!" Cyborg said, seeming pleased with himself. "She's in shock 'cause her spooky mirror was crushed! We just need to pour some water over her head and she'll be okay!"
Raven shook her head. "I don't care for the mirror. And I'm not in shock. My emotions were destroyed when Titan Tower was knocked down."
"Oh," Cyborg said dully. "I see."
Robin looked from Cyborg's face to Raven's in confusion. "Would someone tell me what we're talking about? Please?"
"Raven has this weird mirror that has her emotions and stuff inside it," Beast Boy explained. "It's a portal into her mind. Man, the pink person really freaked me out!" Cyborg nodded in agreement.
Raven looked at her teammates with dull eyes. "I don't see a reason for us to stay here," she said. "So let's go get something to eat." She walked off in the direction of a nearby pizza shop. The others stared at her, wondering how she could remain so calm in the middle of a crisis, but they eventually followed her. She didn't seem to be aware there ever was a crisis.
"I do not understand," Starfire said. "I thought that if one lost their emotions, they could not think?"
"She's running on instincts," Beast Boy said. The others turned to look at him. "Animals don't have emotions, they only have instincts. Mainly, to survive and to eat."
"How'd you know that?" Cyborg said. "Man, did you get smart when I wasn't looking or something?"
Beast Boy shrugged. "Hey, I can become any animal I want, right? I think that I'd know at least a little about how their minds work."
By the time they got to the pizza restaurant, Raven had already ordered herself a pizza and was eating it.
"Hey!" Cyborg said. "Why'd you get a pizza before us?"
"To eat," Raven said plainly. "You can't survive unless you eat."
"Well, what if none of us like eating whatever your favorite pizza is?"
"What is the difference from one pizza to another?" Raven said. "It's all food. And once you've eaten it, you can't taste it. Eat the pizza if you're hungry."
Cyborg grunted and sat down. He took a bite of pizza.
"Hey!" he said angrily. "This is vegetable pizza!"
Raven shrugged. "Beast Boy can't eat a pizza with meat, so I got one without meat. None of you can eat a pizza with veggies, so there's no problem."
Beast Boy grinned. "Hey, guys, didya hear that? Raven got me a pizza!"
"It's everyone's pizza," Raven pointed out, finishing her slice.
Beast Boy studied Raven as he sat down. She was just . . . lifeless. There really was something wrong with her.
Someone would have to help her.

Well, there was Chapter 2. Hope it didn't stink to high heaven. ^.^;; This was basically just showing how Raven acts without emotions. As Beast Boy so kindly pointed out to us, she can still think and stuff. She's using her animal instincts now. Think, a human with the emotions of a rock. Yep. You've got Raven's current predicament.
