Chapter Four

Raven watched her friends drive off back to Jump City. Robin's voice was still ringing in her ears. "Man can he talk!" Hmm...where to go first? Maybe I'll go check into the hotel and drop off my stuff.

After she left her stuff in her room, she went walking around downtown. "Let's see...shopping, food, or meditating? Which to do first?" Shopping? I've never liked shopping! "That's because I never like the shops they like," she said, justifying her desire to spend all her cash on clothes and accessories.

Suddenly her stomach growled angrily at her. "Okay, then," she told it, "food first. Now what to eat?" She looked around, and finally figured she could better find a good shop if she were flying. She lept up in the air, much to the surprise of those around her. "Uhh...heh heh..." she slowly floated back to the street. "Maybe I'll just look at a tour guide..."

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

Hamburgers. That sounds good, where can I find some? "Excuse me," she asked a passerby, 'where can I find a good burger restaurant?" The guy rolled his eyes and laughed, pointing above their heads. "Oh...thank you..." She opened the door, getting blasted by cool air. "That feels good," she said. What am I doing? I can't be happy! My powers would be going nuts if I were! She stopped, thinking. But I'm relaxed. So that makes it...okay? "Whatever," she muttered, walking up to the counter.

"How may I help you?" asked the lady working the register.

Raven looked at the nametag. "Marcy? Hi, Marcy, I'm Raven. I'm on vacation here from Gotha–"

"Are you going to order, ma'am?" Marcy asked, agitated.

"Umm, yeah. I'd like one cheeseburger with fries and a chocolate shake."

Marcy typed in her order and handed Raven her receipt. "$5.34. Is that for here or to go?"

"Here." I think I'm going to like it here.

Okay, that's the end of this chapter. I know Rae is a little out of character, but I wanted to experiment with a different side of her. R&R – flames are accepted, as long as they're constructive.
