The following chapter is not a hilarious fighting scene and if you don't get the hint, then you have to play Megaman and Bass (Rockman and Forte in Japan) on the GBA, or at least play Megaman (Rockman) games.

Sly-Dan: Thanks, I guess I am really good at making funny fighting (aka Dragon Ball Original Style). It's ok if you flamed me at first, because my angry mob of mummies were on undead break anyway, ok? No hard feelings

To all of my (other) readers,
This has been a great Spring Vacation, but all you guys aren't reviewing when I have time to MAKE fanfics. If you just came back from a internet-less place for vacation, I can understand that. However, if you didn't, then you're a heartless jerk who doesn't care for me, the author. cries sobs sobs
Anyway, to the fic...

PS: the first Italic paragraphs in Ammo's Side of the Story are a dream and the ones in Raven's are a flashback.

The Dream and the Dreamer

Ammo's Side of the Story

"Why?" Ammo yells as he holds a dying body in his hands. There was oil all over the place, dead bodies everywhere. Ammo looks in horror as he is supporting the badly damage android in his hand. It had black and red armor, which was now blacker because of all the oil that was cut in it representing blood, since oil is blood for machines. His mask, which was yellow and had a lightning tip, was now cracked and broken. There was a hole in the robot that was gushing out oil quickly. It was a mere amount of minutes before it would shut down and 'die' forever.

"Why did you sacrifice your life for me? You could have lived. YOU COULD HAVE LIVED!" Ammo cries as he is gripping the ground crying. The robot smiled and told him, "You… Was the only true friend… I ever had." Ammo managed to pull himself together to yell at the dying robot even more.

"E.M. Please don't die. You're the only one besides C.M. and the Four Guardians who survived the attack. Please," Ammo cries as he turns his face to see the other bodies that littered the floor. There were hundreds of bodies that were in 'E.M's state, all broken, destroyed, burnt, frozen, etc. The only different was that they were all 'dead' and stuff. There were all kinds of bodies in the place. One dead one looked like a giant Zippo with human parts. One looked like a fat, wooden puppet. One even looked like it was made of garbage from the dump. All these bots were dead, since their eyes lost activation signs.

E.M. grabbed Ammo by the collar of his shirt with his left hand and told him, "Ammo, I'm dying. There's no mistaking it. Even if you revive me with your powers, I'll still be dead since no robot or human reborn from your powers could truly be the same." E.M then coughs out some oil and turns back to Ammo. "Your bodies too scratched and destroyed to continue if you don't do my request." Ammo then looks at his own injured body. His left arm was blown clear off and was slowly gushing blood. Also, his legs from his ankles down where cut off and would cripple him for life. E.M. coughed more oil out and with his last 'breath' he told Ammo, "the only thing I want left is for my parts to replace the ones you lost. I want my arm and legs to replace the ones you lost. Remember this once… I… die-"

Before E.M. could finish, his eyes flashed and were blank. His whole body was now deactivated and the oil stopped flowing out of his whole body. There were no signs of internal movement in the metal body. It was very clear to Ammo. E.M. was dead.

"E.M? E.M! NNNNOOOOOO!"

Ammo landed on the floor of his bed, falling head onto his skull. He got up, breathing hardly, as if his lungs were about to burst at that very moment. His head ached and his body to follow with it. 'How long.' Ammo thought as he stood up rubbing his head. He looks at his left hand and legs, all made of parts from a robot. 'How long must I suffer for my friend's death. HOW LONG!' He banged his right hand into the wall as he growled with anger and fury. 'I need something to calm my nerves…'

He walked into the kitchen, baggy eyed and depressed since the image of his friend's death still haunted him. He filled the kettle he picked up from the dishwasher and filled it with tea. Then he placed water in it and boiled it. After it was ready, he poured it into a cup and drank, trying to cleanse his mind. The texture of the hot substance soothed his nerves long enough for him to think clearly.

'It's been a long time since I had that dream…' Ammo thought as he took another sip of his tea. 'It's been three years and I haven't had the dream since a year ago. When he slept on the couch earlier that day, the dream wasn't as strong, but still haunting nonetheless. I wonder…' He takes another sip, this time thinking while sipping, 'If T.M is alive.'

Suddenly, Ammo notices Raven at the corner of his mind and turns to her position. "What's up Rae?" Ammo asks her. She was wearing her black pajamas and also had baggy eyes. The PJs made her still look sexy to Ammo, and he'd he drooling staring at them if he was a pervert.

"Just… Couldn't sleep," she tells him as he looks at her with confusion. "Want some tea?" Ammo asks politely, which she accepts and sits in the next seat, drinking from another cup. "So, why couldn't you sleep?" Ammo asked doing a small yawn. She told him that the party they had after diner six hours ago kept her awake. "So what's yours?" she asks and sips her tea. "You know," Ammo, tells her as he cracks his neck bones by moving his head side to side. "Just some bad dreams." She then tries to calm him by putting her hand on his, her left hand on his right. He then pulls his hand back and looks at her with discomfort, since it was the hand with the glove. "I'm Sorry," he tells her as he was still shocked by her reaction. "I just, need some time alone." Ammo then walks to the roof where he gazes at the stars, trying to forget the dream and thinking of a way to apologize for acting so rude to Rae.

Raven's Side of the Story

Raven looks in worry as Ammo walks out the door, putting his hand on his head to stop somekind of headache. If it weren't for the fact she couldn't get in his mind without being crushed by a mysterious hand, she would've went into his mind and see for herself what was making Ammo suffer so much. She also worried if he lost some trust in the team, because of what happened earlier that day. She sips the tea as she remembers what happened after the 'Breakfast fananza.'

Raven was walking back from her room to get a book from her room to read, only to see Beast Boy and Cyborg poking around the corner with a fishing pole, a camera, and glue. She walks up to them and asks, "What are two imbeciles doing?" They both tell her to hush and drag her into the shadows.

"We're going to play a practical joke on Ammo," BB tells her as he starts to pour glue on the tips of the hook of the fishing pole. "We're going to hook this to Ammo's glove and pull it off to see what's under there. He's not asleep yet, since he's in the bathroom. We had this idea before we went into our rooms. This is going to be the best joke EVER." Raven normally would stop the two, but she was also curious of what Ammo was hiding in his glove. Who in the world would only wear one glove? Was it to hide something? She used her powers to hide in the shadows from the two about parallel to where they were. If this plan were to work, she did not want Ammo to get pissed off on her as well.

Soon enough, Ammo walks out of the bathroom and toward where BB and Cy were hiding. He had his hands to his side, so it was pretty easy for the two to hook it. They then launch out the hook shot and get a grip on the glove. They then pull back as the glove was about to slip off.

Suddenly, Ammo notices this and grip his feet hard on the floor and pull back. He then clenches his right hand into a fist as he swings the two into a wall. He jumps into them and grips Cy in a strangling position. His eyes flared with anger as he slams Cy's head back and forth on the wall, trying to knock him out. The thump on the wall was so loud that Robin and Starfire came out, only to see Ammo trying to kill Cy. They managed to pry Ammo off of the robotic teen, but Cy was coughing for air.

"Man, what were you thinking? What's your problem?" Cy yelled as he regained his senses. Ammo's eyes returned to normal as he starts to realize what he was doing. "I'm… I'm sorry, Cy. I don't know what came over me." The Titans were silent for a minute, and then Ammo tells them, "I need some time alone."

Ammo then walks upstairs to the roof, while the other Titans start to talk about what was happening. "What'd you guys do to him?" Robin asks as he checks BB to see if the changeling was all right. "All we were doing was playing a practical joke, that's all. We just were going to pull his glove off."

"Maybe friend Ammo has something he doesn't want us to see," Starfire guesses as she helps Robin get BB up to his feet. "Don't worry. Eventually, he'll tell us everything about himself soon enough. I'm sure of it," Robin tells the two. "How will you know?" Cy asks. "What's preventing him to become another Terra?" Robin looks at him and simply answers, "We can't be sure, but just not trusting everyone outside the Titans will not solve anything. Tomorrow morning, we're going to apologize and everything will be ok."

While everyone was going back to bed, Raven used her powers to follow Ammo. He was using his jumping powers to get away from the tower. Since Raven was traveling by darkness, Ammo was unable to see or even hear her. He only stopped from running when he came to a patch of roses and plucked one with his mecha hand.

When he finally reached his destination, Raven was almost out of energy. She looks around the place to see where she was. It was an open patch in a forest about twenty or thirty miles from the city. There was grass in the place she was hiding while trees were growing everywhere. Ammo then walks up to a gravestone. The stone was brand new, yet had chips and eroding marks all over it. There was no label to the stone, just a mask glued to it. It was a yellow one and had a lightning tip, which was now cracked and broken. He places the rose in a vase that was in front of the stone, filled to the brim with water.

"I'm sorry I haven't visited since I first came here," Ammo said, talking to the stone. Raven can only guess that he was trying to ease his pain by communicating with the dead. "I haven't even visited you since I first saw the Titans. I had too much time to train to visit you. I'm sorry. The good news is that all that work paid off!" Ammo smiles as he shows his communicator to the stone, smiling as it shines through the moonlight.

"I finally reached my goal, E.M. Of course I made a mistake to make them mad, but they still are my friends nonetheless," Ammo starts to tell it while putting his communicator back into his pocket. Raven obviously knew that this 'E.M' must have been a friend of his or something. All of a sudden, tears were falling to the ground where Ammo as the light of the moon also makes the tears shine. "I only wish," Ammo tries to get out the rest of the words when he collapses to the ground, crying. "I only wish you were alive to see me right now." Raven has never seen Ammo sad before, even though they only met for a day. It seems as if a knife struck her at that very moment since all his pain was also hurting her.

After a couple of minutes of crying, Ammo got up and pointed his finger up, sending thousands of volts of lightning into the air, making a display of a lightning storm in the air. "This, my friend, is my sign of what I accomplished since we last meet," Ammo said as the lightning went all over Jump City, making a fireworks-like scene of electricity. When he was finished, he got up and hoped back to the tower, while Raven was following him in the same silent way she did last time.

Raven finally finishes all the tea and levitates back to her room, with the haunting image of what she saw a couple of hours ago still scaring her mind. 'Ammo needs us' she thought as her door opens and she goes back into her bed. She knows in the morning that Ammo must know they are his friends. She then goes to sleep as her consciousness starts to fade and she drifts into a slumber.

This chapter is pretty long, but it was well worth it. Also, if you want to know 'C.M' and 'E.M' and other names like that are just short term for their real names.
