Midnight Rain
Chapter 9 Come back to me!
By: Raven612
Raven was sitting with her legs drawn up to her chest and her hands around them rocking back and forth. She was in a black desert type place.
"This isn't happening I'm not on Azarath." She said to herself as she looked around. "Get a grip Raven you will not go crazy." She said to herself sternly.
"Raven come on you have to fight this, do it for me, for your friends." Robin said wiping away the sweat that collected on her forehead. He watched as she squeezed her face in pain and let out a whoosh of air.
"Raven you have to get through this and come out on top." Robin said a pained look on his face.
"Um, Robin we better get going if we want to cure Raven." BB said as he peeked his head around Raven's door.
"Right," Robin said as he lifted Raven into his arms.
Robin could feel Vanessa floating close to him. "Don't loose your cool in there Vanessa." He told her as she blew past him and into the car.
"Star, you and BB will be hidden outside of the front door and the others will hide by any other exits around the building." Robin reminded them as he sat with Raven in his lap.
"Got it," BB said as he buckled himself in.
Cyborg did 110 mph all the way to the agreed meeting place. They pulled up with screeching tires. Robin stepped out and felt Vanessa by his side as he stood holding Raven. He could make out a figure in the shadows.
"Jinx is that you?" he yelled.
"Hello Robin." She said as she stepped out of the shadows smiling.
"Give us the cure and we...pro...mise to give you Raven." He said angrily.
"It doesn't work that way. You give me Raven and I cure her." Jinx said smiling still.
"We want the cure and then you get Raven." Robin said between his teeth.
"No, if we do it that way I might just as well have given you the cure sooner." Jinx said walking forward.
"If we give you Raven you promise not to harm her?" he asked in a last attempt to keep her by his side.
"I promise to but I can't promise for the Atrox." She laughed walking closer.
"Fine, when you do cure her just promise to let me say good-bye." He said reluctantly handing a limp Raven to Jinx who had a large smile on her face. Robin felt Vanessa float past him and go with Jinx and Raven.
"I'll let you know once she's cured." Jinx smiled and walked away. It took all of Robin's will not to run after her.
"Vanessa, bring her back to me." He said as he watched Jinx enter the building. He stood rigid and looked to all of the places the others were stationed. He stood his ground and hoped.
In the building
"Well Raven I'm disappointed. I thought for sure you'd be able to fight off the little fever I gave you." Jinx smiled as she laid Raven on the cool concrete floor of the building.
"I have," Raven said as she opened her eyes.
"What!?" Jinx almost screamed jumping away from Raven.
"I was just acting." Raven said as she stood up.
"You're okay?" Vanessa asked as she became visible again.
"I'm fine." Raven said floating a few feet off of the floor.
"Well then try this one on for size." Jinx said smiling and shot a pillar behind Vanessa. It began to fall and Raven used her powers to block the fall from hitting Vanessa.
"Thanks," Vanessa said dusting herself off.
"I don't think that one fit." Raven said a small smirk on her face. She crossed her hand in front of her and rose in the air. "Azarath metrion... zinthos." Raven said as a black ball formed in front of her and nearly hit Jinx.
Jinx flipped to her side and blasted a pole behind Raven. Raven turned and tried to block it. She managed to block most of it but a rock fell on her head. She backed away and fell to the floor. She touched her hand to her head she pulled it away, it was covered with blood.
"Damnit," she said as she rose a bit shakily to her feet. "Get the others." Raven ordered and Vanessa ran to the door.
Jinx whirled around and shot another pink blast and a pillar fell in front of Vanessa blocking her path.
"No one leaves." Jinx said smiling. "And no one gets it." She said and a pink haze surrounded all of the windows and exits.
Outside
"What the hell?" Cyborg said as he scratched his head noticing the pink windows.
"Damn," Robin spat into the dirt and pulled out his metal staff and extended it. He took a running start at the building and jumped into the air aiming at the window.
Inside
"Well maybe we'll let one more in." Jinx laughed as the pink haze around the window Robin had aimed to disappeared and he came crashing through. The pink barrier returned.
"Huh?" he said as he dusted himself off and looked around. He found Raven floating a few feet off of the floor. He rushed to her. "You're okay!" he said excitedly.
"Yes," she said floating down to the floor next to him.
"How?" he asked.
"I fought it." She said and turned her attention back to Jinx. "How do you plan to beat all three of us?" Raven asked.
"I don't, but these guys do." Jinx said smiling and moved to the side as three more people appeared. They were Cynderblock, Control freak, and Plasmus.
"Oh no," Raven said baking away and watched as Jinx disappeared in a cloud of pink dust.
"We can do it." Robin said but was unsure. He didn't have much power and Vanessa wasn't as trained as he. They would have to rely mostly on Raven's powers.
"Well even with Jinx gone her barriers are still strong." Robin said walking over to a pink window.
"What will happen if someone on the outside wants in?" Vanessa asked.
"I have no idea." Robin said walking back to Raven and Vanessa.
"I hope we can survive this." Raven said as she used her powers to block an attack by Cynderblock.
"We will." Robin said and he extended his Bo staff and brought it down hard on Control freak that had made the wires inside of the building take on the form of some villain in a movie. Robin had managed to make Control freak break his concentration and the wire monster stopped his attack on Raven.
"Azarath metrion ZINTHOS!" Raven yelled blasting a hole through Plasmus but the plasma only re-grew.
Robin was busy fighting Control freak and Vanessa was staring at Cynderblock.
"Raven can you help Vanessa?" Robin asked as wires started to snake around his legs and up to his torso.
"I'll try," she said narrowly escaping a punch from Plasmus. She turned to Cynderblock and used her powers to draw his hand above his head and fling him to corner of the building. A hole formed in the side of the building but a pink glow had taken its place.
outside
"Damnit!" Cyborg said as he raised himself off of the ground after he touched a window and was blasted back.
"We cannot touch the pink?" Star asked helping a fallen Beast Boy up.
"It's a barrier." Jemina said walking up to the rest of the gang and they watched helplessly through the windows.
Inside
"Take this!" Robin yelled as he smashed Control freaks remote.
"No!" Control freak screamed falling to his knees and sobbed next to his remote.
"I'm coming Raven." He yelled running to rescue Raven who was trapped in a pool of plasma.
"Hurry!" Vanessa screamed running from Cynderblock who was chasing after her laughing as he ran.
Robin flung the last remaining remnants from Raven and went to help Vanessa.
"Azarath metrion zinthos," she yelled encasing Plasmus's hand in a black ball and threw him into the wall. His plasma recollected and he ran at Raven. She soared into the air and flipped behind him. She directed a black blast into his back and small strobes of black flew from every part of his body. Raven had a black shield over parts of Plasmus so that he could not rearrange himself again. She was concentrating hard so that Robin could take care of Cynderblock. Robin had managed to knock him down and Vanessa was already waiting by the door. Raven held her control over Plasmus and left Robin to head for the door. Once he reached the door she let her control over Plasmus subside and raced her hardest to the door. She made it.
"Do you think we can go through?" Raven asked as she came to Robin and Vanessa.
"I'll try." Robin said and miraculously he stepped through. Vanessa followed him. Raven took a step but something closed around her. It was Cinderblock's hand. She used her powers to pry his fingers off and threw him to the opposite side of the building. She ran out the door and into Robin's arms. They hugged tightly and he kissed her gently on the top of her head.
"I have a feeling things are only just beginning." Cyborg said as he and the rest joined Robin and Raven.
"You might be right." Raven and Robin said at the same time and looked into each others eyes.
"Let's just go home, please." Beast Boy begged pulling Cyborg to the car.
"Coming," Robin said as he kissed Raven lightly on the lips. "It's nice to have you back."
"It's nice to be back." She said smiling for the first time in a long time.
"Let's go home." Robin said taking Raven's hand and he led her to the car. On the way home Raven fell asleep and her head rested on Robins shoulder. He smiled softly and enjoyed the rest of the ride.
A/N: I hope that you all liked this chapter. I think it might have been my favorite one so far lol. Well R&R please!!!!!
