Chapter Six

"Welcome to the watchtower," Supergirl said. She had offered to show Raven around.

"Woah...this place is cool!" She struggled to keep control of her feelings. She was really excited.

"Are you okay? You look like you might explode."

"Yeah, I just need to control my emotions, otherwise my powers will go crazy." She looked around the spacecraft and out into space.

"Pretty cool, huh?"

"It sure is."

"Hey, Bats!" The call snapped Raven out of her daze. "Come meet Raven!" Batman walked toward them, nearly making Raven faint. He dressed in dark colors, just like her. "Watch out, he's really smart," Supergirl mumbled in her direction.

"Raven..." said Batman as he approached. "Teen Titans?"

"Uhh, yeah, how'd you know?"

"He's really smart," said Supergirl.

"Right, right, I forgot." Raven felt flushed. She had never met such bigwigs like Superman and Batman. No wonder Robin was so talkative.

As if reading her mind, Batman asked, "How is Robin doing?"

"Huh? Oh, he's fine. Doing the whole leader thing."

Batman nodded. "Are you moving on from the Titans?"

"Oh, no, Robin ordered me on a vacation. I had a major headache and my powers were really hard to control. Non-stop crime in Jump City."

"I know," was all he said.

"Batman!" called a green man.

"Coming, J'onn." He looked back at the two girls. "I have to go. It was good to meet you, Raven." He walked briskly toward the man named J'onn.

"Who is that?"

"The Martian Manhunter. Powers are telepathy, fasing through things, and shapeshifting. Really nice guy." She cocked an eyebrow at Raven. "Batman seemed out of character just now. Have you met him before or something?"

"No...Maybe I remind him of himself at my age?" she offered.

"Maybe..."

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

Raven was situating herself in the room Supergirl had assigned for her when Robin called on the Titans communicator.

"How is Metropolis, Raven?"

"Great! I met Superman, Supergirl, and Batman, and I'm staying in their Watchtower!"

"..." Robin was speachless. "Who's Supergirl?'

Beast Boy stuck his face in between them, taking up the whole screen. "Superman?! Dude, he's like, awesome! Could you get his autograph for me? I mean, instead of a souvenir?"

"Yeah, sure, Beast Boy," Raven said, watching Robin struggle to push the green boy out of the way.

"Friend Raven, how are you doing?"

"Oh, hey Star. I'm fine. It was really boring until I helped Superman and Supergirl defeat a slime thing."

Cyborg took over the screen. "You helped the Justice League in battle? That's always been a dream of mine! How was it?"

"It was cool, because I was demonstrating my powers to Superman, and Supergirl was beating up the monster with some other guys."

She saw Beast Boy again. "Are you...smiling?"

Raven quickly stopped, blushing. "Umm, yeah...it's just really cool here."

"And you didn't tear the place up yet?"

"No...That's the weird thing...I think since I'm relaxed, my emotions are under some control."

Robin took back the communicator again. "It sounds fun. We might have to pick you up a day early and meet everyone."

"Riiiiight..." she said, almost laughing.

"No way!" cried Beast Boy. "She's smiling, having fun, and now she's laughing? I didn't even tell a joke!"

"I miss you, too, BB," she said dryly.

The alarm suddenly went off in the background. "We gotta go, Raven. Check in later!" Robin signed off.

She closed the lid, set it down on her dresser, and went to go find the kitchen.
