I am sorry for not updating sooner (dodges flying furniture) but I was enjoying my vacation (dodges more stuff) What I'm allowed to enjoy myself also, you know I DO have a life. Ok, maybe I don't but I try.

Anyway I'm sorry for not updating. I hope you like this chapter even though I think that the third chapter was the best!

She stood at a small window looking out. The window was in a small white room filled with hospital beds and odd machines. The window was painted white with a small engraving at the bottom that said "T T". She looked back out the widow, and saw that she was on a tower on an island in the middle of a large bay. Across the bay lay a large city that she recognized as Jump City. It was a bright sunny day and the sun reflected off of the tall buildings. She watched a small girl as she played happily in the park. Then there was a flash and the whole seen changed. She was still standing at the window but this time the lights were off and the clouds outside were black and blocked out the sun. Then, she saw the city…. It was devastated and fires blazed in the once proud buildings. She could smell blood in the air and she heard people screaming. She looked down on the streets and she saw the same little girl being dragged by her hair through the streets by a shadowy figure. "Do you like I've done with the place?" A deep venomous voice growled behind her. She spun around to face a giant figure in the doorway.

Raven's eyes flew open and she forced herself to sit up. She gasped for air and her brow was moped in sweat. "Oh No" she whispered to herself. She calmed herself down and took the time to look around; but what she saw she did not like. She was in the same room as her dream and she saw the window on the far wall. She tried to stand up but her legs gave way. "Damn it" she swore under her breath.

"Azarath Metrione Zinthose" (Sorry about spelling) she muttered, nothing happened. "Azarath Metrione Zinthose" she tried again, still nothing.

Downstairs the Titans sat around the kitchen table having a serious discussion. "But we know nothing about her. We can not trust a stranger," said Starfire.

"But she does have powers and she would make a great addition to the team", Cyborg argued.

"Besides, I don't think she has any where to go, I think we owe her at least a place to stay", said Beast Boy. Then they heard someone shout from upstairs

"Azarath Metrione Zinthose!".

"Raven" shouted Robin jumping up and running off. The rest of the Titans quickly followed, except Starfire who walked slowly behind.

"Azarath Metrione Zinthose!" Raven yelled. Her aura surrounded her and levitated her to the widow. She looked out and every thing was exactly like it had been in her dream. The same people sat in the same places and the little girl was playing happily. Even the "TT": engraving was still there.

Then the doors slammed open behind her, she spun around expecting the figure from her dream. Instead there stood Robin and the other Titans ran up behind him (Starfire walked).

"Raven…" he whispered stepping forwards, a worried look on his face "What's wrong?"

Raven looked at him and the others standing around him. Her eyes seemed to look past them all and out into the hallway.

Then with great effort she stood up on shaky legs and began to walk to the door. She stumbled closer to him and it was obvious that she was in great pain. "He's coming" she whispered fear in her eyes then collapsed, Robin catching her in his strong arms.

He walked her over and laid her back down on the bed. He turned back around and walked over to his team.

"We will all take shifts and watch her in case she wakes up again," he announced "each shift will be 30 minutes long. I will have the first, Cy the second, then BB, and finally Star. Over and over till she awakes."

The other titans turned to leave when they heard a gasp behind them. Still unconscious, Raven began to hyperventilate. Then she began violently shaking and jerking.

"No" she cried out in her sleep "No!".

"Raven!" cried Robin running over to her and shaking her "Raven wake up!".

The other titans, except for Starfire who just stood there, ran over and tried to hold Raven down. Robin looked over at Starfire

"Don't just stand there help us" he yelled

"Oh, of course" she said with a hint of spitefulness.

Raven began to cough and sputter and then threw blood up all over the sheets and scratches that were not there before just appeared on pale skin.

"Raven!" yelled Robin again with more urgency, he had to wake her up NOW!

Then she went back to normal and just lay there breathing heavily.

She lay crumpled on the ground covered in blood from various wounds. She was in the middle of a large room in her father's castle. It was very dark in the room and the only form of light was a green fire on the far wall. Her mother lay unconscious a corner, having been knocked out trying to protect her. Her father towered over her, whip in hand, shadows hiding his features.

"You always were weak" he sneered at her with a wicked smile. He cracked the whip harshly and she cried out in pain as it made contact with her skin. He bent down over her crumpled form and took a handful of her hair in his grasp

"You will pay for your insolence my daughter and you WILL obey my or else." He whispered in her ear giving her hair a sharp pull.

She made no noise having learned long ago that it was best to take her punishment quietly and pray that he got bored on beating her. He lifted her up by her hair and threw her, none to gently, into the fireplace.

He watched the green-flames burn their mark deep into her skin. He began to laugh a long, deep, demonic laugh of pure evil and enjoyment at the evil he was committing.

She lay in the flames resisting a scream 'no, she would not give him that pleasure' she thought, and then everything went black.

Like I said before I am SO sorry for not updating sooner. I will try to get the next chapters (yes chapters as in more than one) up quickly to make up for it. Till then see ya!

PLEASE Review PLEASE!
