I own Teen Titans. Gotcha! No, I don't really own Teen Titans.

"I am overjoyed that you have returned, friend Cyborg!" beamed Starfire. She would have hugged him, but he was even taller then she was.

"Dude! It's so sweet to have you back!" smiled Beast Boy.

"Finally, some competition!" smirked Robin.

"Welcome back Cyborg," said Raven.

"Man, you should have been in there with me! There were needles and injections and monitors and sarynges and..." started Cyborg.

"Pain?" said Raven, raising an eyebrow.

"Yep!"

"Well, it is a joyous occasion that you have returned. This requires a feast of the waffles and the nuts of dough...no...this requires a large amount of unhealthy junk foods!" announced Starfire.

"Sounds great to me," Robin smiled at Starfire.

"Me too," said Cyborg.

"Me three," BB said.

The four titans turned to Raven. She raised both her eyebrows.

"Are you seriously asking me that question?"

Suddenly, her head exploded with pain. Raven clutched her head, she felt herself going faint.

Beast Boy grabbed her by the arms, trying to hold her up. Raven started to see images flashing infront of her eyes, before the world went black and she saw no more...

Raven looked around. It was so dark, as though the sun didn't exist. She looked up at the sky, the sun had been eclipsed by the moon...it was the eclipse that would last forever. The city lay in ruins. The last humans were being chased, hunted for food. Few had been captured and put into breeding camps, without humans for food, all the vampire's work would have been for nothing. They would die out. Raven saw a pedistal. It was like an Aztec temple, but black, with different carvings on it. What made this pedistal and an Aztec temple so frighteningly alike was the sacrificial block at the top of the long staircase. This was where the vampire ruler had his meals.

And there he was. He had four statues behind him, four crumbling, vine intwined statues. A robot, a tall alien that had seemed to be turning to the statue next to her when she was changed into a lifeless rock, the boy next to her was turning to her too, a determined, sad looke on his face. He was wearing a mask. Finally, a short boy with pointed ears. He was reaching out for someone, someone he had thought was in danger at the time. There was a strange marking on the floor infront of them all, just behind the sacrifial pedastal.

It was encircled with strangely scary pillars, giving off the sense of forbodding to anyone that neared the mark. They were curved, all touching at the tip. The tip was in perfect alignment with the centre of the mark. All of a sudden, the middle of the mark opened up, revealing a swirling, firey vortex. The light it immited was blinding...

Raven sat bolt upright in the medical ward.

"She lives!" cried Beast Boy

Raven lept out of the hospital bed, startling Beast Boy, who had thought she would be too weak to jump out of bed like that.

"Something bad's about to happen," she said, facing Beast Boy.

"Raven, it was probably a bad dream. You were unconcious you know,''

"Yeh, just a dream, just a bad dream..." Raven assured herself, but it wasn't working.

Raven tossed and turned in her bed. She couldn't sleep, she was to busy thinking.

'Whatever's happening,' she thought,' I'm the reason for it all,' Then it hit her.

'Whatever is after me, it might hurt my friends, I cant let that happen!'

She jumped out of bed. She grabbed her blue hooded jacket and black denim jeans.

Raven tip-toed down the corridor, around the corner and down the stairs. Then, she saw a small book, half hidden beneath a cusion. It had Beast Boy's real name on it...'Garfeild Logan.'

Raven usually respected her team-mates privacy, but the temptation was too great.

She picked up the book and gently opened it, wondering if Beast Boy's ultra sensitive animal ears could pick up the rustle of paper.

Raven almost had a heart attack over what she saw next...
The first page was coated in drawings of green and black birds. The name Raven was entwined with roses, and a small heart enclosed the words "RR + GL 4ever."

Raven dropped the book. She looked up the stairs, she was more determined then ever to leave now. Not because Raven was angry about the book, no, it was because he cared for her. The vampire's would hurt him if they found out, and it would be her fault.

But she couldn't leave without letting the titans know she was safe.

She pulled out a piece of paper and wrote a farewell note, then left it on the table. She then walked out the front door.

A figure watching from a far distance smiled. Everything was going to plan.


I made Raven run away...why did I make Raven run away?
