Ravin's Diary
It is done, over, finished. I guess there was always a chance for us to win. I just never knew it. If there was such a chance, why did my mother die? If the world could have been spared that she lived on, just as mine had, why was it not spared.
I had given up hope that I would ever have the chance to see my friends again. My father had exiled me. And there was no escape. Or so I thought. But Robin did not give up. He came to rescue me. I still do not understand. How could we win? Just the five of us. Robin told me that Slade had helped. I do not understand why. Why did Slade want me alive? I felt so powerful the moment I stood up to my father. But it only made it even more clear to me that my powers were evil and good. I had thought that they came from him, and they had, but only when I was born.
The day I was born my mother's family led an army to defeat my father. They failed. An army, of the strongest men and women had…failed. My mother was slain by my father that day. Or so I was told, as to that I can never be sure. I only know that she had time to sneak me away to the house of the monks. They raised me as if I were a time bomb…one that could go off at any second.
Before I met them, Robin, Starfire, Beastboy, and Cyborg, I was different. I was angry and afraid. My hair that is now cut short and strange was long. It fell to my waist, my clothes were different too. I wore the green monkish robe, but my heart was black with sorrow and anger. I was hiding…. from my father.
I guess these are just memories and this book is just a book. But they feel like they are more than that. They feel like they have a purpose. Although I feel happier knowing that my father is not here, I feel doomed or unuseful. My purpose has been fulfilled….as my father said. Could be a purpose for me yet?
I am sorry if this is not what you expected. I am not new at this really but I wish I were better. This is the diary she wrote after the last day. After he father was defeated…read and enjoy.
