Meetings....
Shock. Is what it seemed like her body was in. Head tilted, body tensed. Raven watched the scene play out in front of her like a movie. Surreal. In a matter of seconds, the abnormal tranquility that was the the Titans ' Ritual of Hanging-Out', as Starfire always put it, was rained upon. Literary. With glass...
Raven sat cozily on the couch. Her new-found love saddled up against her side. Her friends lounged about the living area, doing what they did best. Raven observed, like she always did. Happy for once that she was able to join in the fun, without totally bringing down her friends. That was, until the intense wave of hatred and anger slammed into her. Drowning her.
She froze. Empathy flared. Confusion set in. It wasn't her friends. But it was close. Her eyes scanned the room without seeing. Her brow furrowed. She lifted her head slowly. A flash from the corner of her eye brought her head around toward the view behind the t.v. Just in time to see a red flare of energy come hurtling into the window. Time skidded to a stop for a brief moment before lurching into slow-motion. Glass shattered. Titans screeched out and jumped to their feet. The red flare continued to move forward. Glass poured over the room. In shock, all five titans watched as the red glow collided with the t.v. Their eyes widened as they threw themselves back-wards. The t.v. exploded, sending more debris about the room. Robin covered Raven's body mid-air. Cyborg threw himself on top of a screaming Starfire and dazed Beast boy. As they all crashed to the ground, flames and debris playing tag around them. Just as quickly, time screeched froward. The sound of small explosions and flames invaded their ears. Smoke swirled around their bodies. The crackling of glass fading behind it.
Raven laid on the ground. Her eyes shut tightly. Her hands twined into robins shirt. Slowly he shifted above her. Debris falling from his body. Hands smoothed over Ravens' face. She opened her eyes slowly. Blinking up at Robin's worried face.
"Are you alright, Raven?" he continued running his hands over her face. His eyes skimming her body for injuries. She blinked at him again.
Her eyes roaming over him with the same worry before landed back on his face. Her head tilted to the side some, her hand raised to his face, a brow arching. " Yeah. You?" Her hand made contact with the side of his face. His mask slightly tattered and beginning to slip.
Realization hit, his eyes widened. He stopped her hand and pulled it away. Turning his head to the side, he quickly resettled the falling mask the best he could. Calming, her turned back to her. Her hand fell to the floor. What seemed like disappointment, or hurt, flashed in her eyes before she looked away, taking in the room around them. His brows furrowed as he leaned down into her. His breathe feathering over her ear. "Later."
Raven nodded in understanding as they pulled themselves to their feet. Across the room, the others titans slowly made it back to their feet and looked at the damaged.
"Dude! What the hell just happened!" Beast boy looked around, eyes wide. His gaze fell upon the smoldering melted box that used to be his Gamestation. With a sob, he fell to his knees and cried out. "NOO!"
Cyborg rolled his eye at his green friend before smacking him in the back of the head. "BB. Forget the Gamestation." Looking behind him, and at the Masterpiece that used to the t.v., Cyborg gasped at grabbed at his chest. "NO! My beautiful T.V.!" This earned louder sobs from the green changeling.
Starfire patted the shoulder of both men in sympathy. Robin sighed. Raven stared with a cocked brow and her usual sarcastic look. " All your games and memory cards are fine though."
Both men looked up at her. Hope widened their eyes. Beast Boy stopped sobbing and spoke up. "Dude! Really?"
Raven jerked her head into the direction of a bubbling pile of plastic and crossed her arms over her chest. "No."
The men did a perfect impression of an Anime Sweat-Drop. Robin smirked. Just them laughter erupted into the room. They looked out the broken window. A blur flew by it and up toward the roof. Robin glared and yelled out.
"Titans GO!"
Starfire grabbed Cyborg as she flew out the window. Beast boy in bird form followed out behind her as Raven phased her and Robin up through the ceiling.
After re-reassembling on the roof, the Titans readied themselves for battle. Not seeing anyone or thing at first, they cautiously moved about the roof. Laughter rose up around them. The titans eyes flickering over their surroundings trying to find the source. Starfire screeched out and pointed to her left some. They all turned and looked.
A man floated just over the edge of the tower. His fist glowing red with a slight tinge of yellow. Three yellow eyes stared at them. An sinister grin spread across his face as his silver-white hair flowed around him. A outfit rival to Johnny Rancids' clad his body as a Crimson cape with black markings flapped back from his shoulders. A red marking, like a loosely coiled ribbon, covered his grey skin.
Raven glared and a sound, like a growl, emitted from her throat. "Zurl!"

Sorry for the short chapter and not updating sooner, like I wanted too. I've been stuck babysitting for Inlaws, and dealing with Inlaws, and house work and my own family and blah!. Finally the Inlaws went a vacation, so when they come back, their brats go directly to school!
Ahhahahah! No more kiddies for me! hehe. They made me lose all inspiration to write. Little life suckers! (As you can see......I have..problems with them. You try to babysit two kids under the age of 8 who try to beat eachother up with butcher knives! -cries- )
But hopefully I'll get back into full swing. uh Battle is coming up and I suck at writing those, so bare with me. I'll start working on it tonight. -restocks her Tea and Midol- I don't have pepsi sighs
I must say, that I enjoy reading all of your Fanfics more then I like writing my own. I'm addicted. So I need to Ban myself from reading for the next few days so I can get this Fic finished up. Wish me luck.....cuz I'll need it.
-Starts to sneek off to read the FanFics...-
