Chapter two: Awakenings

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was hours later when Raven finally awoke from her death like slumber. The sun had, by this time, sunk to brighten the other regions of the planet. She slowly sat up feeling dizzier by each centimeter she inclined. 'What happened?' she thought as she looked around the deserted living room. Everything was dark and not a single light was left on. "Hello? Is anyone here?" Raven asked, her voice echoing in the empty void that she called home.

"Raven....." a female voice said drifting from her side. She quickly turned but no one was there. "Raven" the voiced echoed, but this time from her right. Again, Raven turned to find nothing there.

"Who are you and what are you doing in the Titan Tower?" Raven softly yelled as she spun in a circle. A soft giggle escaped from directly above Raven's head. She looked up but saw nothing. From nowhere a hand grabbed Raven's shoulder. Acting on a reflex she grabbed the hand and flipped whoever it belonged to over her shoulder making them land with a dull thud.

"Ow! What was that for?" a now masculin voice said. For a moment Raven stood on guard while she tried to place the familiar voice. Finally it clicked.

"Robin! What are you doing sneaking up on me like that!" Raven said angrily. The lights flickered to life giving Raven a full view of the blushing Boy Wonder.

"The power went out when we were eating supper. Cyborg went down to fix it and I came in to check on you when I heard your voice calling out to some one. Who were you talking to any way?" Robin asked.

"You are telling me that you did not hear her! I must be losing my mind." Raven said falling back onto the couch. Robin flopped down beside her and gently took her hand.

"Tell me about it. What did you hear and what was it saying?" Robin asked not noticing the book shelf behind him collapsing.

"It was a female voice, that I am sure of. It kept repeating my name over and over and over and ov-" Raven was stopped by his hand covering his mouth.

"Ok Raven. I get the point. Please continue." Robin said gently taking his hand away from her delicate, beautiful face. Raven's face turned a shade of rosey pink while Robin's face only turned brick red.

"Well, that's all. Oh, wait! I heard a giggle come directly from over my head and then that's when I flipped you." Raven said guiltily. Robin chuckled at how ashamed she looked, reminding him of a child confessing to their parents.

"Do you feel guilty? Oh my word, The Raven feels guilty about getting the best of me! Call the papers. I never knew anyone could feel bad after winning." Robin joked trying to cheer her up.

"It's just that, you're the leader. I should show you respect! Yet here I am flipping you over my head and practically knocking you unconcious!" Raven complained.

"Raven. You did not hurt me in any way. It is ok. It was an accident, I understand that." Robin said cupping her face in his hands. Shocks went through Raven's nerve system at his touch. Unfortuneately, in the kitchen the refrigerator broke sending blue fuzzy food flying onto Beast Boy and Starfire.

"My food!" Starfire said happily licking it from her face. Beast Boy could not reply because he was to busy regurgitating his lunch into the sink. "I must go show Robin!" Starfire said as she flew out of the kitchen and into the living room. Their faces were mere inches apart eyes half closed barely glimpsing the other. "Robin!" Starfire yelled happily. Robin and Raven jerked apart acting as if nothing had happened.

"Hey Star! Whats up?" Robin asked rubbing the back of his head as he spoke. Starfire happily walked up to him and hugged him tightly.

"The blue fuzzy food has been found! We can eat it as soon as the breaking of the fast comes!" she said giggling in excitement. Robin turned a weird shade of olive green then took off in a hurry towards the bathroom. "What is wrong with my Robin?" Starfire asked sitting down next to Raven.

"I think he was just to anxious to eat the blue food that he got so excited that he felt sick." Raven said looking at the sad Tamaran.

"You are right friend Raven. Robin just got over exited. Though I do not see how he can go through so many exits at one time." Starfire said in confusion. Raven sighed before getting up and walking to her room. She mentally unlocked her door and walked in. Her room was painted a dark blue, a book case sat against the wall laiden with dark poetry and movies, in the far corner was a oak desk on which sat her meditation mirror. She floated over to her king sized bed and fell down onto the soft egyptian cotton black sheets. Her eyes closed in hopes that sleep would once again over take her, but no such thing would happen. A shrill bell stung the silence, making Raven jump to her feet and leave to see who was attacking the city this time.

"You shall die daughter of Trigon!" a red demon yelled through the smoke from the collapsed building. Raven arrived on the battlefield alone, having left before the other Titans.

"You have got to be kidding me! Why has he sent you this time? World domination, or just to make my life worse than it already is?" Raven questioned the dwarfish demon.

"You did not let me finish! You shall die, IF you do not come with me and turn to the dark side." the 'Shrimp' as Raven had ordained him said laughing.

"Get a grip!" Raven yelled sending a large dumpster flying at the small lobster dwarf. The shrimp did not see it coming and was hit full force.

"Ow! That hurt." he said getting up. He started to glow a deep crimson color that eventually blinded Raven. When she could see again, it seemed that all of the Teen Titans were standing there in front of her.

"Hey Raven! Who was the weak link?" Starfire asked slowly. She did not wait for Raven to answer and said "Whoever he was, we killed him!" she said smiling. Raven raised her left eyebrow in doubt.

"Psycho lady, lets get going. Take my hand." Beast Boy said holding out his furry green hand. Raven reached out for a moment then drew back.

"How do I know that you guys are really the Titans?" Raven asked. Starfire looked hurt.

"You doubt us sister Raven?" she asked before turning to Robin's waiting embrace and crying. That was the giveaway that Raven needed.

"Azerath...Metrion...ZINTHOS!!!" Raven yelled sending a skyscraper toppling down onto the four wannabes. Raven floated high into the air trying to get away from the rapidly falling debris, she had no such luck. Many little pieces of metal that had come loose from the building scraped Raven's face until there was barely an inch that was not scratched and bleeding. To further her bad luck, a large chunk of concrete came down clashing with her skull. Unconciousness claimed her as she fell the one hundred feet to the ground.

"Raven!" Robin yelled as he walked through the debris of the once battlefield. He stepped around what could not hide a human body and went to the large piles.

"Friend Raven! Where are you hiding at? Please tell us your location!" Starfire yelled as she floated over the biggest debris pile.

"Guys." Cyborg said sadly making all Titans come over to where he was standing.

"What is it Cy?" Beast Boy asked. Cyborg did not answer, instead he held up the blue fabric that was once Raven's cloak. A collective gasp was issued before tears over came them. But you would think that it would inspire them to search harder, but the reason they didn't was because of the blood that covered the entire cloak making it a dark purple.

"Friend Raven." Starfire said in a croaky voice before hugging onto Robin. All he did was stare in shock, silent tears pouring down his cheeks.

'I never told her! I should have said it, only three simple words. No Robin, don't think like that old boy. You don't love Raven. It was just a small infatuation. Yea. If I love anyone it's Starfire.' Robin thought. He slowly wrapped his arms around Starfire's trembling body. "Come on guys. Let's go home." Robin said letting go of Starfire and walking back to the ferry.

Where they once stood, salty water now poured. But what it came from, only time shall tell.
