A/N: Italicized words are what she's saying and the italicized in ' ' are her thoughts.

As Robin and the others thought through their plans to make them foolproof Raven was having her own problems. She was overcome with a fever enhanced nightmares.

She was back on Azarath with her father.

Nightmare

'Where am I?' she thought to herself as she rose to a sitting position. 'Where is everyone?' she thought looking around and immediately recognized the black and barren planet she was on as her home.

"Hello?" She called walking forward, as she took another step a laser blasted a hole right in front of her. "Trigon," she said hatefully turning to look at her father. He only let out a dry and cackled laugh aiming at her once again. She tried to use her magic to deflect it; she found she had to magic in the world she was now in.

"Damnit!" she spat running the opposite way another laser blast landed in front of her. "Robin!" she called and was answered with her own echo. She turned to look behind her and was faced with her father once again who was smiling a dry smile. "Leave me alone!" she screamed holding her head tightly in her hands and crouched down.

"Raven, you disappoint me greatly." Trigon bellowed laughing and aimed at her once again; before he shot she stood bravely and confronted him.

"You are the one responsible for my mother being dead; she was the only person I ever had in my life." Raven screamed her eyes flashing a quick red as anger engulfed her.

"I am also the one responsible for you." He said spitting on the ground.

"You raped my mother." Raven spat.

"She wanted to sell her soul to the devil."

"You still raped her and I was brought up on the planet Azarath and was taught how to suppress my emotion in order to stay safe."

"You are my child and you shall do as I say."
He yelled bringing his hand down the grab her but she did a backwards cart-wheel.

'I'll have to thank Robin for letting me sit in on some training lessons.' She thought to herself as she broke into a run and jumped into a black portal.

She was sucked into another time and place.

'Where am I now?' she thought to herself as she looked around and recognized it as Azarath once again but instead of Trigon it was her mother Arella and her sister Trina.

"Mother, sister," she practically yelled running to them.

"Raven!" they yelled to her. "You were supposed to be dead." Tina said as she embraced Raven in a hug.

"What is today?" she asked regarding her mother and sister with a curious look.

"It is March 3rd." Arella said her hand resting on Raven's shoulder.

"Today was when Trigon killed you and Tina." Raven said looking from her sister to her mother in shock.

"No Raven you were killed when you took on Trigon by yourself." Arella said sadly.

"No! Tonight is when Trigon comes to get his children so that he can invade earth." Raven said backing away from them.

"No Raven you're dead." Her mother said and she and Tina smiled.

"No!" Raven screamed backing away from her mother and sister who had taken on the form of Trigon and went after her.

"This is all a dream, a very bad dream!" She screamed to herself holding her head in her hands and fell to her knees tears staining her cheeks as Arella and Tina went up in flames.

"Mother! Sister!" Raven yelled watching their screaming forms wither in flames. Her body shook with violent sobs as she screamed and turned her head up to the sky and all went black.

Back in the T-tower

Robin was sitting next to Raven on her bed and watch helplessly as she squirmed and let out occasional sobs and screams. He changed the ice pack on her head several times now he rested his hand on her forehead felling it for a few minutes. Her fever had gone down quit a bit he was thinking Raven was fighting the fever herself and that they wouldn't need the cure after all.

"I wish I was there with you Raven, helping you fight your fears." As Robin said this Raven screamed two names that of her mother and sister. "Raven you can fight this, I know you can." Robin squeezed her hand tightly and kissed her forehead. He brushed her hair away from her eyes and sat staring at her.
