Chapter three.

"Ugghhh," moaned Raven, opening her eyes slowly. Her temple was throbbing, and she brought arm up to steady herself whilst she rubbed the pulsating vein.

"Now where am I?" she thought out loud. Her mind was swirling with possibilities. Thoughts of Terra '2' and Beastboy deep in that kiss made the pounding in her head grow louder and stronger. She had to get out of this 'place' and back to the present. Her present.

She was back in her room – but was it in her time?

Struggling to stand up, but managing, she walked clumsily to the end of the hall. Everything looked normal enough. She swallowed and carried on her descent down to where she assumed someone would be.

That was when she stumbled upon Robin. He was in the gym, working out. Raven's heart sank a mile. He was the 'future' Robin, not her-time Robin.

'That means I'm still stuck in this hellhole. With Terra, maybe?' Raven mused, feeling aggravated. She wanted to see him again. Who could tell her how long she would be stuck in this place, without seeing his smiling face again.

"Oh God. What's wrong with me?" Raven said, the tone of sadness visible now.

(Miss Independent walked away)

I'm so glad I finally feel...

She struggled on, wanting to find him, feeling unwanted in a ghostly world of her own.

'Don't give up Raven.'

She swivelled around sharply. "Who's there?"

'Don't be frightened.'

The voice seemed to echo around her, but it reached the very depths of her soul.

"Please, I want to go back." Said Raven, hoping that the voice would hear her plea.

'Follow your heart Raven. And don't be scared.'

"What? I can't. Take me back!" she shouted, hoping to be heard, but to no avail. Just as mysteriously as it had come, the voice vanished, leaving her alone.

'Wherever I am, I have to find Beastboy. It could be the only way I can get back.' Raven thought, logically. She could sense his presence, and her heart told her the way.

There he was. Sitting as real as could be, looking at the TV. Her face softened as she glided next to him. He ignored her, as she expected.

Leaning over, she whispered in his ear. "It's me, Raven. Please, don't go with Terra, she's evil. She hurt you and...well...I need your help."

Beastboy turned around so he was almost nose to nose with Raven, who blushed and leant back a bit. His face lit up.

"Raven!"

"What? You can see me?!" said Raven triumphantly. It was then she realised he wasn't looking at her, he was looking through her. She turned around to see the vision of herself.

'At least I'm not blubbering like a baby this time,' thought Raven with a deadpan look on her face, getting up and moving behind the couch.

"Hey." Said the older Raven, moving towards Beastboy and sitting down next to him. A book was in her slim hand, and she opened it. Beastboy put his arm around her and, to Raven's surprise, the elder Raven leant in against his shoulder and continued to read, her long hair draped neatly down the fabric.

What is the feelin takin over?

Thinkin' no one could open the door

"What?!" said Raven out loud, her emotions getting the better of her. She wasn't dreaming, was she? He'd got...his arm...around her older self...

Raven shuddered and moved in closer, but there was nothing being said. A noise behind her made her jump.

"Hey, and how are the lovebirds this morning?"

The other two titans turned around slowly. Raven couldn't prevent her mouth from opening wide.

"Good morning, Cyborg." Stated the older Raven with a flick of her hand.

"Hey, Cy!" said Beastboy, his cheeky self showing through the mature exterior. "Ready to play some games?"

Both Ravens groaned at the same time, as the boys settled down to play. The older Raven's eyes were fixed on Beastboy as he played. She smiled to herself and continued reading.

Raven's mind reeled. 'But I thought...Terra...I don't understand.'

Then she felt that feeling again. Goosebumps crept up her spine and she knew what was coming next.

The noise was more deafening, and worse than ever before. She could hear her heartbeat in her throat, and she collapsed – her heart feeling fuller than it ever had before.

Surprise (surprise) it's time

To feel (to feel) whats real
