"LIVE, FROM WISCONSIN, IT'S SATURDAY NIGHT!!"

Bancroft, Wisconsin to be exact. It's the number one party town of the whole state. My hometown. Sniff, sniff. It's so beautiful! It's so wobfeltic! It's so... uh... yeah! ;

Don't ask.

Random quote #3: "Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle."

'This can't be happening. This can't be happening...' Raven repeated in her head. She was slightly rocking back and forth in her spot in the corner, refusing to look at him.

Her father just stood there, not wanting to make a sound. He knew she would react like that. He did abandon them. Oh, what he would give to go back and right the wrongs!

He sighed and stared to leave, but before he could reach the door, it swung open, almost knocking him of his feet.

"I told you, B.B., you can't have an all green weight set!"

"Well, you can't have an all silver one then either!"

"Yes, I can!"

It was Cyborg and Beast boy. Raven and her father froze.

"Whateve-"Beast boy stopped right there. He stared at the scene before him. Raven was sitting in the dark crying, there was a man there, he had no idea who, and there was glass and broken dishes everywhere!

"Beast boy? Why'd you-"Cyborg stood and stared with Beast boy.

The silence lasted forever. No one wanted to say anything, for fear of what the answer would be. Everything was on pause. Nothing dared to move.

Until, Beast boy couldn't take the quiet any longer.

"Raven... what's going on?" He asked with nothing but pure curiosity.

Everyone looked toward the girl sitting in the corner. She looked down at the floor. Again the silence loomed. Then she finally spoke.

"I..." was all she could get out before sobs began to rack her frail body. She covered her face with her hands once again and curled back into a ball.

Beast boy and Cyborg looked worriedly toward her. They had never seen her cry, or show this much emotion. They glanced toward each other. They both knew something had happened.

Silently, while everyone had been distracted, Raven's father had been slowly making his way to the door. He didn't want to be there when Raven told these... friends (?) about what he had done. He was sure they had strange powers too.

'Just a little farther...' He thought to himself.

"Hey, you there! Where do you think you're going? We want some answers!" Cyborg suddenly yelled in his direction.

Her father eyes flashed frightfully at the two boys heading straight for him. He quickly ran for the doorway that had been left open with all the surprise. He dashed out... and was gone.

Beast boy and Cyborg made as if to go after him, but a strong, black force slammed the door in front of them. They backed away in surprise.

"Don't go." Raven said monotonously, her emotionless mask once again hiding her in its shadow.

They looked toward her.

She had her hood back on and was standing, still in the darkness.

"But Raven-"Beast boy started.

"No." Was her reply. She turned around and slowly made her way back up stairs.

Then suddenly, she stopped and glanced over her shoulder.

"He'll be back." She said quietly, continuing her long journey back up to her room.

Beast boy and Cyborg looked at each other one last time, before following her upstairs, wanting to know what exactly was going on.

I know it's short compared to my other chapters, but I like the way I ended it.

Review, please! Thank you!

P.S. If you haven't already, read some of "Deadly Pause", my other fanfic, and review on that one too.
