Hey People! This is the new chapter one. If you liked the other one, don't worry. That'll be put in the story later. So There!
"Blah" means talking. 'Blah' means thinking.

It had been a normal day for the most part.
There hadn't been any emergencies (That is, if you don't consider Beast boy practically destroying the weight room an emergency.), so everyone was out doing something.
Cyborg and Beast boy went to go look for new gym equipment, Robin went to go visit an old friend, and Starfire went shopping. They were all having fun.
Everyone, but Raven.
She had politely turned down Starfire's request to go the "mall of shopping" for fear of getting talked into buying a pink cape. Pink was not her color.
Yet now, she wished she had gone with her. The Tower seemed lifeless with out the shouts and laughter of her teammates. So lonely.
Raven lay silently on her bed, watching the time on the clock slowly creep by. The dizzying quiet fell around her like dust on a porcelain vase. Burying her in its thick coat.
'Bored.' Was her only thought.
It kept repeating itself in her head, so much that she couldn't concentrate.
Finally, she sat up with much effort and walked out of her room. The door shut behind her with a swish.
Her feet led her to the main room. She looked around. No one was home yet.
She sighed.
'What is taking them so long?'
Raven walked slowly towards the couch in the middle of the room and sat down. She rested her head on the back and closed her eyes.
It seemed like nothing was moving, like everything was on pause. She felt herself getting caught in the moment of complete stand still, but she didn't mind.
When you're a Teen Titian, you don't get much time to just sit and think.
But, sadly, the doorbell rang; shattering the silence she had once hated, yet now missed.
Her face twisted in to a scowl at the rude noise, then relaxed. She opened her eyes. She almost called to Cyborg to open the door, but quickly remembered she was alone.
Raven sighed heavily and rose from her warm spot on the couch.
The doorbell continued to ring.
"I'm coming, I'm coming!" Raven yelled to whoever was behind the door, as she flew down to the ground floor. She landed softly in front of the door, reached for the knob, and opened it wide.
"Yes, can I help-"Raven stopped right there.
Her eyes opened wide. Fear overtook her. She shook her head slowly as she backed away from the entryway. Her mind stopped. She could hardly breathe. She tripped and fell, landing hard on the tile floor.
The person walked inside, only a few feet away from Raven. The dark of the hallway blurred most of his features. All that could be seen was the white of his hair and his black attire that seemed to match the glint in his eyes.
He smirked at her fear. He opened his arms wide as if waiting for a hug.
Raven flinched at the sudden movement. She let out a small whimper.
Somewhere, a glass shattered, its crash echoed through the Tower.
The man chuckled as he set his arms at his sides. He knelt on one knee, a few inches from the trembling girl before him. He looked straight into Raven's eyes. The glint in his stare grew stronger.
He spoke. His voice had a sinister edge to it.
"What, no hug for Daddy?"
Review and make me happy!
