Beast Boy awoke the next morning, dreading every second of it. After that argument with Raven yesterday, he figured that the slightest mistake would tick her off and he would be blasted to kingdom come, adding bouts of anxiety to his already breaking-point guilt. He opened his door and peeked out. No sign of her. He walked down the hallway, constantly looking over his shoulder to see if something was being hurled in his direction.
When he finally reached the living room, he peeked around the entryway. Raven wasn't in there, either. He walked into the living room and saw Starfire sitting on one of the couches. He walked over to her to apologize, but she saw him and floated away. Beast Boy slapped himself on the face. Why me? He collapsed on the couch, rubbing his eyes.
"You okay, man?" Cyborg said, sitting next to Beast Boy's head. "You look like you didn't get any sleep."
"I didn't." It was true. He felt so guilty about their argument that he couldn't sleep until about 3:30.
"By the way," Robin said, "did you hear that racket yesterday morning?" Beast Boy groaned.
"Yeah, sounded like a bunch of yellin'." Cyborg said.
"Anybody seen Ray?" Beast Boy interjected, trying to change the subject, not wanting to get Robin and Cyborg on his case.
"She is meditating on the roof," Star said, not making eye contact with Beast Boy.
Beast Boy had had enough of this. Starfire and Raven were angry at him, and he was pretty sure that, with his luck, he'd get on Robin and Cyborg's bad side. He promised himself that as soon as he saw Raven, he'd apologize, and then immediately make a run for it and apologize to Starfire. If he made it to her.
But after breakfast, she still hadn't come down from her meditation on the roof. The Titans found this very strange. Beast Boy decided to get it over with, and made his way to the roof, to apologize to Raven.
But when he got to the roof, Raven was nowhere in sight. He walked around the roof seeing if she was hiding from view to get better meditation. No sign of her. Beast Boy was about to head back down when he realized he had stepped on a piece of lined paper that was taped down. It had some words written on it. He picked it up, and read it:
"Titans, I have taken her. Find her, if you can. Signed, Your Worst Enemy."
Your worst enemy? thought Beast Boy. And who's 'her'? Then he saw that there was an arrow on the bottom of the paper pointing to Beast Boy's left. He looked over and saw a Titan Communicator lying on the roof. He picked it up and opened it up.
It was Raven's.
Beast Boy's eyes widened. "Oh God," he half whispered. Whoever this guy was, he had taken Raven.
He ran down to tell the others.
