I don't exactly know how many reviews are good, but with all the positive ones I've gotten, I have the will to keep going. So review pweeze (Gives puppy dog eyes).... Ok, where ever that came from I don't know....

" Hey, stay awake!"

Raven was still half conscious. She hadn't slipped into oblivion yet, but she was pretty close. Someone was lightly shaking her to keep her awake. The green teen again, she assumed. Her brain wasn't functioning right at the time so she didn't care if some stranger was assisting her for a silhouetted reason.

" Hold on, I'll get you out of here! Just don't close your eyes!"

" You vermin! Who do you think you are interfering with me!?"

" Sorry I can't stay and chat, but I gotta fly!"

" YOU GET BACK HERE YOU IMP!!" the demon cried

It wasn't long before she realised she was being carried off via flight. Somehow the green dude could fly, and lucky for her, her father's ability to fly was in that amulet, so he was literally grounded. She wasn't aware of this, and assumed Trigon was closely behind. There was no time to take it all in, just to try and paste together exactly what was going on. She should be dead, not being helped by a stranger. Why would someone who didn't even know her face her father and help her? It was mind boggling. Raven was raised to never trust anyone so such behaviour made her extremely distrustful. Still, it all seemed like a dream.

Before she knew it, she was back on the ground. Was she safe, or did her father attack? The landing was pretty gentle, evidence she was safe... For now. What about the green dude?

" You okay? Snap out of it..."

Unexpectedly, He lifted off her hood to inspect for damage. She really wasn't okay with that. Now he would see what a freak she was and that he would regret ever helping her. She wanted to get the heck out of there, but her body wasn't obeying her commands to escape. Maybe this time she wouldn't escape the jaws of death. That moron wasn't exactly helping. Her life was practically in the hands of someone who didn't have a clue of what they were doing.

" Uh oh, your bleeding. Good thing I have a portable medic kit!" he grinned

Instead of fighting to get her body in motion to escape, she just waited until she had the strength to get up. Suddenly, she was forced out of her sub-conscious state by the sharp stinging of rubbing alcohol. The half-demon creaked her eyes open to glare at the green adolescent.

" Oh good. Your not dead." He smiled in humour

Raven just stared for a second and looked away as he took out the bandages. The green boy carefully wrapped the bandages around Raven's head as both seemed to avoid eye contact with each other. And of course, there was awkward silence. The stranger quickly finished with the bandages and sat down against the same wall that Raven was leaning on. Raven recognised her surroundings as the rooftop garden she was on earlier. Now would be a good time to get away.

" So... What's your name?" he inquired

" Raven." She said blandly

" Ok... I'm Gar, but you can call me Beast Boy."

" Sure..."

" So what's with the big red guy back there? Why was he trying to kill you?"

" It doesn't concern you."

" Oh c'mon, you can tell me!"

Raven seemed a little agitated as she got to her feet. She started to walk off but getting up too quicky made her head spin.

" Hey, where are you going?" Beast Boy asked

" Somewhere else." She said in her famous monotone pitch

" But-"

Suddenly, Raven stumbled to her knees. Maybe it was a sign that she should stay? No, just the aftereffect of getting up too quickly with a head injury. She barred her teeth and slowly got up as the changeling rushed to her side.

" Your not ready to go running off yet, you're still hurt." Beast Boy reminded " And it's much safer here! That evil red guy won't find you here!"

Maybe, just maybe, he was right. Trigon would never look for her in a building with flowers decorating the top. It was the perfect hideout. But Raven still questioned his motives. It seemed strange of a strange green boy to help a strange demonic girl.

" I'll stay. But answer this question." She glared with distrust " Why are you helping me?"

" What? Can't a guy be nice?"

Raven just continued to stare at him to psych him out. It was getting to him, but he didn't have any bad intentions against her. He was set on proving to her he wasn't plotting something evil against her. After the mistake he made a long time ago, his only desire was to prove to the world he was a good guy. So what happened exactly? That was still a secret locked away within the depths of his intellectual.

" Okay. So most guys are sick demented perverts with only one ambition in life, but I'm not like that!" He reassured " I'm just trying to do good!"

Raven had two choices- Stay with the stranger until her father stopped looking or roam the streets until he eventually tracked her down. Well, staying with 'Beast Boy' wouldn't be so bad. If he tried anything she could use her powers to annihilate him. For a minute, she had forgotten all about her powers. Luck seemed to swing her way once again now that she had a place to stay, a place that was guaranteed to repel her father.

" Fine. I'll stay. But if you've lied to me, I'll crush you into a flat rectangle and stick you in a toaster." She said reluctantly

" Ha haha, sure." he laughed, hoping she was being sarcastic " C'mon, I'll show ya around!"

The two trudged toward the stairwell and vanished within the vertical tunnel. Destined for friendship, or hatred? Who knows. As long as their personalities clashed, things would seem as if they were plotting each other's downfall. It was going to be a loooooooooong two weeks.
