Tada! A new chappie! :) I had writer's block, AGAIN, but… now… I have almost the rest figured out. Well, the next chapter at least! Heheh, thanks for the reviews again. They make me so happy!

Something Bothering Me

It was a couple hours later and Raven sat alone in her room. It had taken most of her strength to finally get Beast Boy out of her room to give her time to think, but little did she know; he hadn't walked very far. In fact, he was sitting outside her door, trying as hard as he could to hear anything going on inside the dark room.

Not much sound came from the quiet girl's room. Rustling of some kind of cloth was all that he could hear; he processed it as Raven's cape rustling.

Inside her room, Raven was now pacing frantically trying to think straight about what she could do to stop the…. indescribable doom that was coming. She sat down on her bed and curled her legs up underneath her, trying to calm herself so she could think straight. She ended up thinking out loud.

"My father… this all has something to do with him. And Beast Boy, I'd rather die than admit it, but he has some significance in this all, because… maybe part of me does like him. When the planets align, he'll lose all power, that was obvious from the dream, but when they… why did he get so much more power?"

Raven shook her head and got the craving for some herbal tea. Maybe drinking some could help her focus more. She walked to the door and opened it. As it opened, a leaning Beast Boy fell on top of her, sending them both to the floor of her room. It took a moment for the trouble Raven to realize what had happened.

"Get. Off," she said, though, still not paying much attention.

He obeyed, but didn't move out of her way.

"Move."

"Raven, I'm sick of this secret pain act you're putting on. Tell me exactly why this is happening."

Apparently, Beast Boy knew more about her then one was to think.

"This doesn't concern you. You don't need to be involved."

Raven started to move around him, but Beast Boy moved in front of her again, with an angered look on his face.

"Yes this does. You're my friend, it's my job to be involved."

Raven sighed, but tried to move around him again.

"Tell me."

Robin yawned from on his bed, and pushed his blankets back. He did a couple of morning stretches before he completely got out of bed. Beast Boy hadn't come back to the living room last night, but he just figured that the changeling had gotten involved in some video game inside his room and lost track of the time.

Robin looked at his calendar that was hanging next to his bed. Days were crossed out, and events were marked in. A bright red circle was surrounding bold letters for tomorrow's date. It read: EQUINOX. He figured that explained in a way why he had had such an odd dream that night.

He yawned again, and decided to join the rest of the team in the making of breakfast.

"You're telling me that that… thing, inside your head is going to get control of you tomorrow?"

Raven nodded. The two were sitting on Raven's bed. Beast Boy had attempted to touch a few objects in her room, but after the third time of Raven yelling at him, he had decided against trying to touch anything else.

"And you're powers? They're gone?"

Raven nodded again.

"I have a theory. Trigon…. My father…"

Robin sat up at the counter waiting for the rest of the Titans before he started breakfast. Actually, he was hoping Cyborg or Beast Boy would come out first; they always seemed to enjoy making breakfast, sometimes to tick off the other.

Starfire was the first to come out. She looked like a train wreck. He clothes were wrinkled, there were bags under her eyes, and her hair was in tangles.

"Starfire, what happened?"

She yawned.

"I did not sleep well last night. Visions of the night were not too thrilling."

Robin thought for a second about his dream, as Starfire chattered a bit more.

"Friend Raven and Friend Beast Boy were being attacked by a giant red monster."

As if it were a cue, Cyborg walked in slumped over and yawning.

"Mornin' y'all. Anyone else have weird dreams?"

"About… Raven and Beast Boy?" Robin asked.

"Yeah, didn't get much sleep last night thanks to it." Cyborg went to the fridge and took out some milk.

Even though Robin respected Raven's privacy, he decided it was time to tell the team mates. Robin had figured it out a while ago. He and Raven… knew a lot about each other. It was better if the rest of the team knew however; to prepare them.

"I have a theory. Raven's father…"

Cyborg groaned. "That powerful… demon?"

"Yes, we're about to see him face-to-face."

"He's found some sort of way… to block off my powers during the equinox. On the exact day of the equinox, I believe that he will try to find some sort of way into this universe."

"I thought he was in your mind?"

"No, what you saw in my mind, was anger. Anger is represented by him. Trigon…is much more powerful than what we battled in my mind."

"Say what?"

"Beast Boy, what you saw in my mind, was a premonition of what will happen tomorrow. Please, stay as far away from me tomorrow as you can. I do not want you to get hurt."

"No way, Raven. I can't let you…."

"Promise me. Promise me you'll stay away."

"But, no… we…"

"Please."

There was a pleading look in her eyes that Beast Boy couldn't refuse.

"Fine. I promise."

"Good."

She started to get up.

"Wait, there's one other thing that's bothering me."

"What?" Raven asked.

"Raven, do you like me?"

"So that is why we had such bizarre visions of the night," Starfire said, after Robin had explained everything.

Cyborg nodded. "Yup, definitely makes sense."

"You two understand what we have to do tomorrow?"

"Yeah."

"Okay, so today," Robin was cut off by an alarm sounding inside the whole tower.

"Titans trouble!"

Raven backed away from Beast Boy.

"What… do you mean?"

"Do you think of me… as more than a friend? Do you like me?"

Raven's hear… thumped from awkwardness and embarrassment. It was a good thing her powers weren't working or else her dimly lit room would have been completely dark. An alarm started sounding loudly, and Robin's voice echoed in the halls.

Beast Boy stood there staring at her for a couple more moments waiting for an answer, before sighing, and saying, "Are you coming?"

"No, without my powers I'm," she was cut off as she was pulled into running by Beast Boy, who had grabbed her hand and was pulling her towards the front of the tower to join the team who was now on there way towards the crime scene.

"We'll talk about this later," Beast Boy said, before morphing into a pterodactyl again.

His bottom foot/talons wrapped around Raven's wrist pulling her up in the air, both of them on their way to fight.

hopefully that shined more light on… exactly what was going on with Raven. so, whatdja think?
