Chapter 2-What the heck is going on here, Rae?
Raven woke up, completely drenched in sweat, her hand clutching the crystal on her shakra, right above her eyes. She looked in her gothic wall-mirror; her pale skin, her indigo hair and eyes... Everything seemed to be intact- to the naked eye, at least- even though she felt like a white-hot cro-bar was being held up against her forehead.
Raven had just then recognized that the scream she heard at the end of her nightmare sounded oddly familiar; she only knew one person who would scream like that. If only she could put her finger on it... Yet everything around her seemed peaceful. Everything in her room was exactly where she had left them before she went to sleep. Plus, she heard Cyborg blabbering on about the T-car, per usual Sunday morning, and Starfire was cooking some foreign food for breakfast. "Hadn't they heard that scream? They should have, I can still hear it echoing" Raven thought. It was true- she could still hear that girl's screaming sounding in her ear; faintly, but she could still hear it nonetheless.
"Maybe the scream wasn't real," Raven figured. "Even though that voice sounded so familiar, it was probably just a part of my nightmare." Or at least, she hoped it was a nightmare.
But what if it was a vision? Raven had premonitions like this- mostly negative ones- quite often. And, if it was a vision, what was it of: the past, the present, or of the future? With all of these questions racing through her head, she had decided to tell her friends about her dream, still somewhat in a state of shock from seeing him being tortured like that..........................
Raven started to walk down the bedroom corridor, the hallway with all of their bedrooms. For a few seconds, it felt as though she wasn't getting anywhere, even though she knew she was walking... She had started to run without realizing it. The hallways suddenly got colder, darker, so dark that the world's brightest flashlight wouldn't make the slightest difference. Suddenly an unmistakable voice entered her mind. Raven saw a petrified Beast Boy start to fade away...
She would never tell anyone, not even her best friend, Starfire, that ever since that one moment, Raven had, well, more-than-friends feelings for Beast Boy...
Flashback
It was when Robin had disappeared; Starfire was flying (A/n: literally) after Cyborg trying to zap a jet-pack off of his back that Gizmo had put on him during their last battle, which they lost. Raven and Beast Boy searched the city, but all they found was Robin's utility belt. Beast Boy got hurt during battle, and was rubbing hi leg. Raven used her powers to heal him.
"Who knew we had a doctor in the house, thanks" Beast Boy said.
"No problem," Raven said.
She had feelings for him ever since then.
End Flashback
Star's POV
"Something is wrong with friend Raven!" Starfire exclaimed, in her usual high-pitched voice. She had long, red hair, emerald green eyes that glistened underneath the ceiling lights, and wore a not-so-modest outfit. "We must do something!" She was from Tameran, so she was still getting used to earth's customs. It seemed as though Raven would never wake up; she was on the floor like that for about ten minutes now. "Something is terribly wrong here," She thought.
Raven's POV
Everything got darker, quieter; ever nails scratching on a chalkboard would relieve her of this dead silence. Almost as if cued, she heard that scream again, the same one she heard at the end of her dream. Then there was an unmistakable voice: Starfire's. "Thank the lord above!" She exclaimed in her mind.
Normal POV
"Raven?" Starfire said, trying to wake her up, "Raven, WAKE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Raven had finally woken up. She saw Robin and Cyborg staring down at her; she had just realized she was on her hands and knees; and Starfire was ready to scream in her ear again, in attempt to wake her up. Raven covered Star's mouth before she could scream again. "Star, I'm awake."
Starfire picked her up and hugged her so tightly, she could narrowly breathe. "Oh, glorious, friend, you are unharmed!!!!!!!"
After about five minutes, Starfire finally let Raven go.
"Rae," Cyborg began, "what the heck is going on here?"
Raven simply responded, "Where's Bb?" in a monotone voice.
"Dunno," Robin answered, helping her to her feet. "I haven't seen him all day."
"Oh, shit," Raven put her hood up. She turned towards Beast Boy's room and started to float away, without looking back to se they're expressions, although she could tell they were confusedly looking at each other.
"Rae," Robin began, "were you having a vision or something?"
Without even slightly turning around, she just hovered six inches above the floor and nodded. It was enigmatic to her how Robin understood her so well, even though he was dating Starfire. How the hell does he know all this stuff? She would always think when this kind of thing happened.
"What is wrong with friend Beast Boy?" Starfire panicked, "Is he ill? Is he injured? Is he d-"
"Azerath Metrion Zinthos." She muttered. A black aura surrounded her hand and Starfire's head, making it so that no one could hear what she was saying, but you could still see the white outline of her head and lips moving. Even though she had her back turned to everyone, Raven could still tell that Starfire was trying to scream.
After about ten minutes, Raven finally let Starfire talk again. She was breathing deeply, trying to recover from the lack of oxygen.
"We have to make sure that Beast Boy's here." Raven instructed, "'cuz if he's not- I..." she trailed off and, once again, floated off towards Beast Boy's room.
Please be okay, PLEASE be okay... Raven thought...
