Emotions....
Raven fell back against her door heavily. Her hands pressed against her face as she exhaled deeply. ' I can't believe that just happened!' Her mind screamed. Slowly her hands rubbed over her face and through her hair. Her legs were still shaking from the shock. The door gave her much needed support. 'But you did enjoy it..just a tiny bit, didn't you...' Her mind teased back. Raven scoffed as she closed her robe, retying the sash. "Shut up you!" She replied out loud.
Within seconds, the sound of stampeding erupted into the hall outside her door. Many voices talked at once. She took a few shaky breathes and rolled her eyes at her friends racket. She turned her side to the door, arms crossed. She pressed her ear slightly to the metal, listening to the conversation on the other side.
"Dude! What happened?" Beast boy asked as him, Cy and Star met with Robin in the hall outside Ravens' door.
"Ya man, heard explosions." Cy asked directly after the green man.
Robin looked over at Ravens' door and smirked before looking back at his friends. They, of course, followed his gaze. Realization hit and groans filled the hall. Raven smirked at the noise from behind her door, but didn't move. Again the other three titans began to talk as one.
"Dude!"
"Man, I thought she could control her powers!"
"Is all well with Raven? I hope I did not upset her!"
Raven rolled her eyes at the door. As Robin lightly shook his head at the questions, a small smile playing at his lips as he remembered what had just happened. He looked up at them and answered. " Raven is fine. I just uh...caught her off guard."
The others stared blankly at Robin and began to nod as Starfire finally spoke up in her cheerful voice. "Oh wonderful! I did not upset Raven by seeing her state of undress in the shower!"
At this, three sets of males eyes turned on the smiling girl, their gazes wide. From behind the door, another set glared at the metal, hoping the red-head could feel it. Starfire continued to smile widely, her hands clasped together, slightly floating off the ground.
"Say what!" Cy said, disbelieving, a brow raised.
Beast Boy looked at the red-head in awe. "You saw Raven..our Rae...in the shower...wet..and naked?" He squeaked out. When she nodded at him, he fell to the ground in front of her feet, his hands grabbed ahold of them, and he began to beg. "Please..please tell me everything!" Star looked down at him confused, as Robin glared at him.
Hearing this, Ravens' eyes widened before turning into a death glare. She growled at the door. "You're going to get it Beast Boy!" The metal separating them slowly beginning to glow black.
From the hall they heard the growl and looked at the door. Beast Boy still laying at Star's feet, began to whimper at the glowing door. Robin walked over to him, bent over, and slapped the green man upside the head. Cy smiled and Star still looked on confused.
"It's ok Raven. They were just leaving" Robin said to the door, then turned to his teammates. "Weren't you!"
They all nodded, Beast Boy crawled away from the door before turning into a mouse and scurrying down the hallway, Star and Cy behind him.
When they had left, Robin stood in front of the door. He leaned forward, placing his forehead against the steel. "I'm sorry Raven...about what happened... I .uh..."
Raven leaned her head against the door from the inside, listening to Robin talk. She smiled slightly. "Don't worry about it.. I'm sorry for losing control of my powers..and hitting you with dirty laundry."
Robin smirked and gave a small chuckle. "At least it wasn't the toilet."
Raven giggled lightly. "Well that was my first choice..."
Robin lifted his head from the door, glaring at it before smiling. With fake hurt and upset he replied. "Uh! You would throw a toilet at me? ME? Robin! Your dear caring friend, who only wanted to check on you! I'm hurt!"
Raven turned toward the door , scoffing and rolling her eyes. "Oh please! I know you are smiling, so quit it!"
Robin leaned against the door frame, still smiling. "And how would you know."
"Duh! Empath here!" Came through the door. Robin raised his brows. "Uh..sorry , I won't think it ever again!" he said.
Raven raised a brow at that. " I wasn't reading your thoughts, just sensing your emotions." She said to the door as silence from the other side met her. "Should..I be reading your thoughts?"
Robin cleared his throat. "NO!...No...um..how's the weather?"
Raven glared hard and slide the door open enough to peek an eye out. As the door opened Robin jumped away, his eyes alittle wide under his mask. Receiving a one-eyed glare, Robin began to fidget. Raven, of course enjoyed it. After another three seconds of watching him squirm, she closed the door without saying a word. Leaving Robin standing in the hall, sweating. As he walked away , a voice spoke in his head , making him jump slightly.
' Naughty Boy......' Robin smiled at it as he made his way to the common room, knowing it was Raven's voice.

Raven dressed herself without hurry and sat on her bed. She looked over at her dresser and stared at the mirror upon it. She knew it was time. It had to be done, she couldn't put it off any longer. Slowly she pushed herself off the bed and took the few steps over to the mirror. She looked into the black dull surface of the glass. Her hand reached out and touched it. Instantly the dull black began to swirl into a gray-blue mist.
Raven took a deep breath as a large black hand shot out of the glass, embracing her and pulled her in. Closing her eyes against the rush of wind that hit her face as she fell through the mirror. When her fall began to slow, she peeled her lids open as she landed with a thud. Straightening her body, Raven looked around. It had been years since she been here. And she missed it. Red stars still blinked in the black nothingness. She watched as the rock path put itself together for her. Without any thought, she followed it and passed through the archway.
On the other side, she entered into a large meadow. Brightly colored flowers and trees swayed in the breeze. A even brighter sun hung in the purple-pink sky. Turning her gaze back to the path, she smiled lightly. A yellow-gold cloaked Raven stood a few feet away, studying her. Her hand reached up , pushing her glasses higher on her nose as Raven walked to her.
"Hello Knowledge."
"Greetings, Raven. It has been a while."
"I know."
Knowledge turned, motioning Raven to follow, which she did. "The others have been gathered."
Raven sighed. "Good."
Within minutes they had passed through another archway and into the 'Meeting Room' as they called it. It wasn't large, but not small either. Multi-color cloaked Ravens' sat in a semi circle. Raven and Knowledge took their sits, completing it. Gross slouched, Timid cowered, Rage and Brave both sat straight, Rage glaring. Knowledge lifted her chin in the air. Happy giggled, her legs under her. Ravens' gaze skimmed over the rest before settling on the two new ones, the ones from her dream. One was in a Coral colored cloak, the other in a Plum. They looked back at her, one smiling coyly, the other shyly. Raven turned to Knowledge.
"OK, let's get this over with."
Knowledge nodded and cleared her throat. She looked at the new emotions. " Well we should start with them. The one in Coral is Love, the other is Lust." Raven sighed loudly as Knowledge continued. " Love arrived a short while ago, after you had yourself straightened out. Lust just arrived though. And I'm sure you know why."
All the Raven's turned to their maker. Some giggled, others snickered, some even growled. Raven ignored it and kept her attention on knowledge and the new arrivals.
Sighing again, she spoke up. "Robin?"
As one, they replied. "Robin."
Knowledge turned back to Raven. "As for Zurl... we are not completely sure on how to defeat him yet. There's little we know of him. But we do know he is not as strong as your father."
"I'll look into it when I return. I'm sure the others and I can find something." Her emotions nodded at her. She stood and began to leave. The others taking her que. She stopped just before going through the archway and look over at them. " Thanks for this afternoon.. I really appreciate it!" She said sarcastically. Embarrass blushed and hid her face and Lust scoffed at her, whispering. "Should have let me handle it."
With that Raven left Nevermore. She fell out of the mirror, landing on her floor with another thud and groaned. "Need a better landing."
