Raven woke up to the Titan's alarm. She was still on the couch, still in the same position. She sat up, looking around. The others weren't there. "Hmm..."
"Raven!" Robin's voice came from nowhere.
"Robin? Where are you?"
"We're still eating pizza. Did you get the alarm?"
It's only been a couple minutes? "Yes, I'm in the living room," she said in her usual monotone voice.
"Ohh...are you feeling up to fighting Jinx, Gizmo, and Wildebeast again?"
She stood up, feeling suddenly dizzy. "I...I think so..." The room spun, and her head throbbed harder.
"Good. Then get out here as soon as you can!" The line went dead.
"Okay, Robin, goodbye to you too."
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
"Where is she?" Robin was agitated. She had said she was fine, right?
"She's probably preening herself in that spooky mirror of hers," Beast Boy joked.
"'Preening?' When did your vocabulary expand?" Cyborg was genuinely confused.
"Cyborg, dude, I have been a bird before."
Just then, Raven floated down. "Sorry I was so slow. I was...meditating..."
"Whatever. Titans, Go!" shouted Robin, and they all launched at the trio of villains.
Raven took Jinx, Cyborg, Beast Boy, and Robin took Wildebeast, and Gizmo took Cyborg. "Friend Raven, can I help you?" Starfire asked.
"Yes, actually, you can!" Raven was exhausted, but she didn't want to worry her friends. Too late. She lost control of her powers and her brain felt like it had just multiplied twice over. She fainted, causing the metal beams she was levitating to fall over the boys.
"Look out!" screamed Starfire, and the Titans darted out of the way right before it crashed down on their previous spot. Luckily for them, Gizmo hadn't moved.
"Stupid, cruddy sludge..." he muttered, trying to wiggle out.
"Raven, are you okay now?" Starfire peered over her friend.
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
"Raven? Raven...wake up, friend Raven..." Starfire's head was the first thing Raven saw when she opened her eyes.
"Aah!" she pulled back, not expecting anyone to be that close. "Why were you so close?"
"You fainted," Robin said.
"Yeah, we had to carry you home. It wasn't easy," Beast Boy said seriously. "I mean, we were wiped after fighting the Hive."
"Sorry..." Raven got up off the couch, but her head throbbed. "Maybe I'll lay down again."
"What happened back there anyway?" Cyborg asked.
"Nothing...I just didn't get enough rest after the bank robber."
"Maybe you need to hold off on the fighting," suggested Robin.
"No! I'm fine," she lied through her teeth.
"No, you're not," Robin replied, matching her snotty tone. "You're staying home next time, got it?"
She sighed, defeated. "Got it."
"Let's leave her alone, everybody." Robin played traffic guard and herded them all into the next room.
What am I supposed to do while they're out fighting evil? Raven thought as she floated up to her room.
oooooo
I know that was a short chap, but I just started this fic yesterday. R&R, constructive flames are accepted.
