The Secret Past of Raven

By iluvgwtw

Ever wonder why Raven is so reclusive? Well, this fanfic explains why. I thought it would be interesting to write this because I've often wondered. And, Raven is my favorite Teen Titan so....yeah! Enjoy!

Disclaimer: If you think I own Teen Titans, then you need to go to a shrink. In case you don't understand this: I DON'T OWN TEEN TITANS!!!!!!!!

A woman runs down the street, clutching a small bundle close to her chest. She quickly dodges into an apartment building and races up the stairs. She hurries down the hallway, jiggles with the lock on a door, and steps inside, closing and bolting the door behind her. The small bundle starts to move and make small crying noises.

Woman: pulls bundle away Hush. Don't cry now. There's nothing to worry about.

Although the woman says this, she seems to not believe her own words as she looks cautiously at the door and hurries to the furthest most point of the one bedroom apartment. She squeezes herself into a closet and holds her breath, trying to hush the baby. The doorknob of the front door jiggles, and then suddenly there are poundings on the door. The woman squeezes her eyes shut as hot tears roll down her cheeks. The baby starts to whimper and the woman shushes her.

Woman: Baby, you have to be quiet. Although there isn't any hope left anymore. Bangs are heard My darling, my Rachel, don't cry. I'll always be with you. I'll always be in your heart. Don't worry my darling girl.

She places the baby behind some clothes that are hanging, and makes her way, back out to the door.

She stands there and opens the door slowly, revealing two men standing there. They each have guns in their hands. She bows her head in sorrow as she hears a gunshot and feels pain. She falls onto the hard wood floor and everything goes black. The only thing she hears, is her baby, her darling Rachel, crying from the closet.

Well, this is just the prologue, but I hope you guys like it. Tell me what you think, give me advice, the usual stuff.....yeah! So, yeah! Bye!
