A/N- Sorry I didn't update much! Schools hardly started and it's killing
me. So let's get on with the disclaimer.
Disclaimer: I don't own Teen Titans, but maybe they'll let me borrow it for a day!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Raven woke up from her sleep. She looked at the vanity across the room. Her eyes were dim again. She forgot to put on the stupid amulet. She gave an unhappy puff and looked out the small window. It was a cloudy and foggy day.
"Great. My luck has no boundaries." Raven said sarcastically.
She got out of bed and got dressed. She wore a long black skirt and a thick navy-blue sweater. She took the phone and told the bell-boy to pick up her stuff. As she walked towards her bags she stopped in front of the mirror. She looked horrible. Her eyes were bloodshot and dim, she had dark circles under her eyes, and she seemed paler than usual.
"Get a hold of yourself, Raven." She told herself.
The bell-boy came in and looked at Raven.
"Uhhh," he said ", should I come back later?"
Raven turned around, startled.
"No! Just take everything and call a taxi for me." Raven told him.
The bell-boy nodded and put all her bags in the cart and walked out of the room.
Raven ran her hand through her violet hair. If only her mother could see her now. She looked at her mirror and nodded reassuringly. With that done, she walked out of her room.
~*~ In the Taxi ~*~
Raven looked at the Taxi driver. He looked so familiar. They have been riding for 3 hours already and it was 1 'o clock already.
"How much longer till we reach Nortenbrook Alley?" she asked impatiently.
"Only fifteen more minutes till we reach the station miss." He answered in a jolly voice.
Raven sighed and looked out the side window. ~*~ At the Tower ~*~
Manzilla was the only one in the living room. Everyone else was too busy mourning about Raven. She smiled at herself. She had done a good job at helping Slade bring Raven to their side.
That reminded her that she needed to talk to Slade today. She checked if anyone was watching and she pulled out an old mirror.
"Hazerath Minethos Delacari!" she said in a twisted voice.
Slowly, a man appeared on the other side.
"Yes, what is it that you disturb my rest?" He asked. Venom was dripping from his voice.
"Sir, what if Raven comes back?" Manzilla asked.
He chuckled.
"She won't be coming back." He said with a chillingly evil voice.
~*~ Nortenbrook Alley station ~*~
Raven waved at the familiar taxi driver as he drove off into the horizon. She looked back at her train. She walked up to the side and lugged all her bags into the luggage section. She sighed and walked into the train. There were many busy compartments so it took a while for her to find an empty one. When she did she lied on her back and closed her eyes.
For some reason she felt exhausted. Just in case she had put on her amulet before leaving.
There was a knock on the door and Raven lifted an eye-lid. There was girl with curly-blue hair and Orange eyes looking at her with a snotty look on her face.
"Can I sit here?" she drawled.
Raven glared at the girl. Raven had read her mind and it said that this girl thought Raven was a freak. Oh yeah? She'll show her who's a freak.
"No." Raven said, her eyes were glowing red.
"Why not?" the girl asked, no longer drawling.
"Because I don't share compartments with freaks. The girl rolled her eyes and walked in the room anyway. Raven was about to go psycho on her but decided to save her energy for when she really needs it.
After a while the girl spoke.
"Hi, my names Sigrid, what's yours?" she asked but there was still a hint of drawling.
"My name is Raven." Raven answered in her monotone.
"What's wrong? Aren't you happy about going?" Sigrid asked with less drawl this time.
"Well, it's just that, I miss my friends." Raven said with a look of pain in her eyes.
"Then why did you come?" Sigrid asked looking more interested than bored.
Raven smiled at the girl and told her the whole story.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Raven never knew she could have so many things in common with anyone before. She and Sigrid have been talking for two hours! It turns out that Sigrid has the ability to play around with time and used to live in an orphanage but was adopted into the Redance family.
Raven told Sigrid everything there was to tell about her life. Raven finally felt like she was in the right place. They were both in the middle of a conversation about poetry when the train stopped.
"I guess we're here." Sigrid said happily.
Raven looked out of the compartment window. The school was amazing! It was built out of radiant, yellow brick. It was very big with 7 floors and glistening windows. There were engraving around the sides and beautiful mahogany doors.
Raven looked at it with awe and snapped out of it when she heard giggling. She turned around and looked at Sigrid.
"What are you laughing at?" Raven asked with a scowl.
Sigrid continued with her fit of giggles. Raven ignored her and used her powers to pick up Sigrid and drop her with a loud THUMP.
"OWWW! What was that for?" she asked.
"What's so funny?" Raven asked.
"I wasn't laughing at you! I was laughing at that girl!" Sigrid said, pointing out the window.
Most of the kids were getting out of the Train and there was a very rotund girl with pigtails and brown eyes with a very small shirt on.
Raven lifted her eyebrows while Sigrid continued giggling.
~*~ Outside the doors ~*~
Sigrid had finally stopped laughing and Raven was starting to feel less and less like she belonged here. Suddenly the doors opened and there appeared an old woman with purple hair that fell to her waist with white-out eyes.
"Welcome to the H.I.V.E. Academy of Villainy, young ones." The woman said with a misty voice.
"The girls go through the left staircase while boys go through the right. Dinner will begin shortly." She continued.
"Please note that the rules are listed on the wall. If anyone breaks them they will be expelled. Classes will begin tomorrow. The classes consists of Technology, athletics, plotting, history, skills, necromancy, and of course your own special course which include Shockwave, Time, telepathy, bolts, and fire." She finished.
The woman first led the boys to the dormitories then the girls. At the girl's dorms Raven and Sigrid put their beds next to the other.
"So what do you think of the school?" Sigrid asked as she sat on her bed.
Raven looked at Sigrid. She didn't want to tell her what she really felt about the school.
"I think it's great." Raven sad with downcast eyes. She was never a good liar.
Sigrid looked suspicious for a minute but decided to drop the subject and continued unpacking. Raven did the same. As she looked around at the other girls she felt sick to the stomach. They all looked so unfriendly.
'Well of course Raven! This is a school for villainy.' She thought to herself.
Just as everyone finished getting ready, a voice on the intercom told them to go down to dinner.
"Come on Raven!" said Sigrid.
Raven looked at Sigrid's retreating back.
"I'll be right there!" Raven called out to her.
What has she gotten herself into?
~*~ At dinner ~*~
It was a beautiful hall, decorated with many pictures and engravings. Raven was the only one that didn't care about them. She was too busy thinking about one person. Robin.
' He probably hates me.' Raven thought to herself.
"Yoo-hoo! Raven? Are you on this planet?" asked Sigrid.
Raven snapped out of it and looked at Sigrid.
"I'm OK." Raven said.
'No I'm not.' She thought to herself.
~*~ Back at the dorm~*~
Everyone else was asleep. Well, except Raven. Or at least that's what she thought when she walked out of the dorm. She was walking around the girl's common room, looking at the books on the shelf. She couldn't sleep, so she decided to read a while.
"What are you doing up this late?" came a voice.
Raven spun around fast and saw the girl Sigrid was laughing at earlier.
"Nothing just reading." Raven answered.
"You couldn't sleep because you were feeling guilty about abandoning the Teen Titans." The girl stated.
Raven looked amazed.
"I can read minds like you can." The girl said.
When Raven didn't answer the girl continued.
"You don't belong here." The girl said.
"Who are you?" Raven asked.
"Marigold and I want to help you with your problem. You see my father forced me to come here against my will so I'm planning to escape. Are you with me?" Marigold asked holding out her hand.
Raven thought for a minute. She wanted to leave and she knew it. With that pushed aside Raven smiled and shook Marigolds hand.
