Raven's Childhood friend

Keam

Chapter 2

"Is he going to be alright?" Raven asked as soon as Cyborg faced his teammates.

"He'll live, but he must've gone against an army! That guy has more bruises than I have bolts." Cyborg said.

"Raven, tell us, who is this guy?" Robin asked.

"…his name is Keam. He lived with me on my home planet. He lived relatively close to my home, so we became friends. As I started developing my powers, Keam started developing his own…" Raven seemed to shudder at this.

"So he's a half-demon, huh?" Beast-Boy asked.

"No, his powers are unlike mine or my people. His are…dangerous, even compared to my full strength, his is more devastating."

No one didn't ask anymore questions, they just worried about Keam's condition. Cyborg explained that his body was under a lot of strain. His bones were to the point of fracture, his body was literally about to break down on him until he came here.

"What's strange is, these metallic earmuff things are stuck to his head, I don't understand that unless he's a deaf man lookin cool." Cyborg said. Again everyone looked toward Raven for answers but she just turned away, not showing that drop of tear falling down her cheek. She didn't know why he was hurt, why he was like this. She needed answers now.

"He won't wake up for at least a day, tops. Let's get some info on this guy and why he's here." Robin ordered. Everyone nodded there head and left, except Raven. She stayed a couple seconds longer, and before she walked away, she heard the medic door open. Raven was astonished to see that Keam was up and walking.

"Hello?" Keam said drowsily out in the open.

"…" Raven was just stunned, there's no way he could be walking, it's impossible.

Keam turned toward Raven and his eyes widened.

"Raven, is that you?" His eyes opened wide, and a smile appeared on his face.

"It is you!" He ran toward her and hugged her. Raven, again stunned, pulled Keam away.

"What are you doing here, how were you injured, why are you walking?" Raven exasperated.

"Whoa, calm down. If you don't mind I would appreciate some bread and water. Then I'll tell you everything. Raven then nodded her head and led him to the main room for some food.

Once she seated Keam, she quickly walked over to the fridge to grab a loaf of bread a glass of water. Keam must've been famished because he devoured the food in seconds.

"Wow, I've never tasted food that good for months!" Keam said with happiness. Raven thought he was going crazy, there was better tasting food then bread and water, he must've been through a long journey.

"…um, Keam?" Raven started.

"Oh yes, how impolite of me. Thank you for the meal. It was most gracious. Now, if you'll call your friends for a little meeting I'll explain why I have arrived on your humble doorstep."

With out another word, Raven left for her friends.

"Well, it seems Raven matured since her childhood. I just hope it's enough…" Keam thought to himself
