Hey guys, back again with another chapter. Man, they are just rolling off the line. Thanks to all the reviews, I am really enjoying writing this story and I hope you are all enjoying to read it. Well, without further ado, I present Chapter Six: Raven's Dream.
She kept on looking at the rose and could not stop looking at it. It was like a sun, giving off light to battle the darkness and warmth to battle the cold. It was from Beast Boy, and somewhere, deep inside of her she knew it was special.
As she was thinking of this, something started to happen, although Raven could not notice it, she had her eyes closed. Her clock began to lighten, not so much that it was easy to notice, but just enough for there to be a difference.
"What are you doing?" She said aloud to herself. She had finally realized what she was doing, and the lightening of her cloak had faded back to the normal, dark blue that it always had been. "Why are you thinking about the rose and Beast Boy? No matter what he gives you, it still does not replace the fact that he intruded in your space." She kept telling herself. "There is no excuse for what he did, and nothing he gives you will make it better." She lay on her bed as she said this to herself, when suddenly she sat upright. "However, it was quite nice of him to do that, and after all it is a beautiful rose." Once again, her cloak began to lighten. "What are you saying? Think, this is Beast Boy!" As she began to reason with herself, her cloak once again turned back to the dark blue. "After all, I don't love Beast Boy." She lay back down on her bed.
'Love Beast Boy, love Beast Boy, Beast Boy.' It kept on repeating in her head over and over, like a broken record. "What did I just say? Did I just say I love Beast Boy?" The pale girl blushed, and brought her hood up to cover her face even though there was no one around. However, now her cloak had lightened a bit more after what she had said, and she did not notice this.
That was her last thought as she drifted off into sleep, it was late and she was quite tired after all the day's events that had occurred.

"There is no escape from Dr. Light!" The glowing villain said as he stood in front on Raven. "You should just leave now, or else this will be your last time on earth."
"Remember what happened last time you and me got together?" Raven said daringly not budging from her spot in front of the mad doctor.
"Yes, well that time you had caught me by surprise. I have upgraded and take on anything or anyone, even a little girl like you." Dr. Light smirked.
"Let's get this over with." Raven said as a couple of concrete slabs were taken from the road and hurled at the menacing enemy.
He dodged the attack and retaliated with a blast from his light energy gloves and connected right with Raven and she fell to the ground.
"Not so tough are you now missy?" He said standing over Raven charging up his gloves to deliver the final blow.
Raven had waited for the blast but heard the sound of running, she opened her eyes to see a green lion leap out of nowhere and connect with Dr. Light. He slashed at his chest and cut a nice hole through his suit, making him bleed.
His suit was short-circuiting and could no longer fight.
"It seems like you have one this round, however, you will not win again." He said turning and ran away into the darkness.
The lion just stood there, watching the fleeing doctor as he turn back into the green human, Beast Boy.
Beast Boy went over to where Raven lay and kneeled down beside her.
She attempted to get up but Beast Boy put his hand on her shoulder and prevented her from doing so. "Don't. Save your strength. You are hurt, and I will bring you back to the tower."
"Thank you Beast Boy." Raven said, looking into those huge green emeralds Beast Boy had for eyes.
He was looking right back into her amethyst eyes as well, as his head neared hers and their lips came into contact with each other.
They were kissing and both of them never wanted to stop.

Raven woke up with a jolt and in a cold sweat.
"What in the world was that?" She asked herself. "Why did I dream about Beast Boy and me kissing?" She questioned the darkness, knowing that she would not get a reply.
Suddenly she realized what had happened.
"No…this can't be true, it just can't be." She was starting to sweat a little more. "There is no way this can happen. I cannot love him; there are too many bad things that can happen because of it. There are too many possibilities of me harming him, or maybe even killing him." She just kept talking, even though there was no one in the room. She needed to get this all out. "However, there must be a way that this can happen." She mentally kicked herself for even suggesting the very thought. 'What is wrong with you? He is Beast Boy.' She began to think to herself. 'We are two totally different people; there is no way nothing could ever happen between us. However, it would be awful nice if it could work out.'
This was her last thought before she fell back into the unconsciousness of sleep. She was dreaming of Beast Boy yet again.
