To Lenore: I realize that the story is a little rushed but that is the way I write. Sparsness of words lets the reader infer what is happening, I apologize if it causes confusion.

Thanks for your reviews. You guys are great.
The wind rushes past my body chilling all the nerves numbing the pain of everything. My eyes closed I await the impact. Goodbye Starfire, Robin, Cyborg, Beastboy, I think his name and a sob rises in my throat. Everything is going in slow motion memories haunt me. The time...all the times he saved me. I think I just passed the window. I just heard some one run into it. THey must have seen me falling, I hope they realize what I'm doing. Glass breaks, I hear robins grappling gun fire. It wraps around my wiast. Break me in half the thought passes through my mind.
It doesn't, just knocks my breath out. Damnit The pull me into the window. I keep my eyes closed. maybe they'll think I just passed out and fell.
"What happened?" Robin asks.
"I think she went to the roof and then fell." Cyborg said.
"No, It wasn't that," Beastboy, "The other day...I walked into her room and she had a gun...Raven's been trying to kill herself, I'm not sure why but..."
He trailed off. Robin took charge after hearing the news.
"Starfire take Raven to the infirmary, restrain her. I'm putting her on a suicide watch...we'll take shifts watching her."
Starfire lifts me up I can feel us moving I keep my eyes closed If I open them I'll be questioned...I don't feel like explaining myself to them...Sure the Titans are my family but I can't tell them that easily. They may not understand, to save the world I'll do my final good deed...no matter what my life will end.
"I am sorry Raven, but this must be done." Starfire wraps the straps around my wrist. I don't fight, once the think I'm better I'll be let go then I can kill myself in peace.
"Starfire I'm here to switch watch." It's Beastboy, "Go get some rest."
I hear her stand up. "Thank you Beastboy, I will rest." the door slides open.
"Raven whatever reason you have for doing this must be a good one." He begins to undo the straps around my wrists and ankles. "Though I hate to see you go, if it's what you want then do it."
"Beastboy I--I need to tell you why." I say it with a struggle.
"Why?"
I open my eyes for the first time since I jumped off the tower. He was staring at me.
"About a week ago, when Slade attacked, he delivered a message...I had been expecting it for a long time but once it actually came I--I couldn't take it."
He grabbed my shoulders, "What was the message?"
"I...I am supposed to destroy the world. I can't do that, I can't hurt ym friend, I can't hurt you." I begin to cry.
Beastboy looks at me almost glaring. "You control your destiny. No one else, You hear me No one."
"I can't take the chance that it will come true." He hugs me, it's been a constant lately.
"You take charge of your destiny...what slade says, what the prophecy says. It doesnt' matter. You control you." He stares at me. "Don't end your life for anyone else."
I stare at the floor, I can feel him watching as if he knows everything in my soul. "I can't stay alive."
I jump off the bed and run, beastboy trys to follow but I lose him in the shadows. I'm outside the sun is rising over the city. I find one of the guns I had hidden outside. I put it to my head. The door to the tower opens I hear Beastboy scream something. I turn and look at him tears blur my vision of him. He gets closer, I mouth the words Goodbye and I pull the trigger.
No pain, I feel light as I float away into a fog. I hear someone crying but it's distant far off, one thing manages to break through the stupor "Please save her...I LOVE HER!" Beastboy.
I can still feel the tears on my face they fall like rain, but they aren't mine. I guess that means that I'm still alive in some sense. I just wish I could have told Beastboy the way I felt. I smile to myself one last time before sinking into the darkness. I mutter four words...I love you too.
THE END
