Chapter Four: Revelation
It has been four days since the Titans' murder, four days since Slade was defeated. Raven and Robin were out of the hospital and back at the empty tower. Being back the tower made them feel guilty about not being able to help their friends.
Silence filled the tower, but it was clean once again.
The bodies of their friends were buried and Slade's mask was finally removed. No more noisy titans, no more haunting faces, no more Tamaranean feasts, no more new gadgets, no more practical jokes, no more everything. It was like they were the only ones left in the world.
Raven was back at the roof, meditating. Her chanting was audible without Beastboy's noisy cracks.
Robin arranged his things, thinking that this was the end of the titans. There was no need for them to fight anymore. It wasn't like they could.
The moon was shining in the night sky. Stars shimmered, like the other titans watched over them.
The clock said 9:00 pm. Robin has been locked up in his room for an hour already. He didn't feel like staying up late anymore. He was lying still under the sheets, though his eyes were wide open.
Raven was still awake in the living room. She was sitting on the couch, reading a book.
Robin stared at the ceiling, as the clock ticked inside his head. He tried to sleep, but he couldn't. Hours passed slower than thoughts inside his head. He lay on his side, and then he rolled to his back. He tossed and turned on his bed, until he saw that it was already past midnight.
He sat on the side of his bed, and ran his hands though his hair. He stood up and went to the living room, where he found a sleeping Raven.
Her head rested on her hand as it was tilted to the side. Her other hand was holding her book on her lap, it was still open.
Robin picked up the book and placed it on the table. He got a blanket and draped it over the demon. She didn't wake up at all.
Robin was about to leave, until he remembered that Raven had been trying to hide something.
He picked up her hand and rolled up her sleeve.
Raven felt a tug at her hand as she opened her eyes slightly. She watched Robin's slow movement beside her. He had finally seen what she had been trying to do.
The scar on her wrist was visible from the corner of her eye.
The wonder boy pulled back her sleeves and carefully walked back to his room.
She tried to kill herself. Robin thought. Why?
Raven wrapped herself with the blanket, as soon as Robin was gone. She gripped her wrist, slightly twisting it. She felt the sting crawl up her arm. It seared pain throughout her entire body.
She didn't feel bad about hurting herself. She had tried it more than once before, because of her father… This was just the closest she had been to killing herself. She wanted to. She needed to, but she couldn't. Trigon's still here. Robin is still here.
