Raven flew outward. The cool breeze hit her, but it felt like sharp knives, piercing her body. She landed on the dock where Sparrow had come. She sat down. "No one needs me. No one cares."
"But I care." A voice startled Raven. An old man came to view in the fog.
"Who are you?" Raven asked. Her hands got out and glowed black.
"A friend." The old man said. His voice sounded familiar. But Raven couldn't decipher it. "I'm here to help you Raven. You're alone. Nobody wants you anymore. But I do. Your sister Sparrow trained from me. But I will train you, to become better and stronger then your sister." Raven turned her head. Fresh tears washed her face. "You will truly become better."
"But my sister always said I was creepy." Raven said. "I can't learn from you."
"Sure you are different. But are you willingly to take the chance. To beat your sister."
"I'll do it." Raven finally answered. The man nodded, then grabbed her.
"Friend Sparrow, might you go out and enjoy the wonders of shopping." Starfire asked one day.
"Sure!" Sparrow jumped off the couch. "Bye Robin, see you later." She waved and left with Starfire.
"Has anyone seen Raven?" Cyborg asked.
"She's probably in her room." Beast Boy said, not taking his eyes off the tv screen.
"I'll go see if she's okay." Robin paused the game and walked to Raven's room. He knocked the door.
No answer.
"Raven? I know you're in there!" Robin shouted.
No answer.
Robin kicked down the door in frustration. He looked around the dark room.
She was gone.
"Raven." Robin whispered. He looked at the note. "She couldn't have left." Robin walked out of her room.
"What's the deal?" Cyborg asked.
"She's gone." Robin said quietly. "We have to go find her. She could be anywhere."
"I'm sure she's okay." Beast Boy said. But he looked worried.
"We got to find her." Robin said. "So let's go."
