Author's Note: I'm baaaaaack! Did ya miss me? I bet you did, admit it! Anyway, sorry this took so long, vacation and crap like that, I also had writers block... In other news I should be going back to my normal posting schedule. In the voting for my new word I had one vote… So flippin fantastic won! YAY! That makes me feel flippin fantastic! Okay, so guess how I feel right now? Go on guess…………WRONG! I'm very sad… I've been reading the other stories on this site, annnnnnnnnnd seeing the great writers on here only make me think, "Jebus, I SUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCKKK!" and then I look at how many reviews these people have, and that just plummets me into further depression. This one person, (I can't remember who they were) had 134 reviews and she or he was on Chapter TWO! I'm on chapter 8 and I've got 48! (cries) I must thank my loyal reviewers, that's why I keep writing!
Time for responses, though I am quite happy cause I got 14 reviews last chappy! YAY! Lets try and beat that this time, now who's with me? (Silence and then a cricket chirps) …………………FINE!

broken.ballerina: So ummm, did the suspense kill you? I hope not, sorry it took so ong….
Shadowofazarath: Maybe! Or maybe not… I'll email you the buck….
wolf of raven: I don't think they'll admit it to each other just quite yet. It will take Raven a long time, but she's progressing.
WickedWitchoftheSE: I'm glad you like the story, I don't think I'm doing to well… reading other peoples stories makes me sad! BB/Rae fluff is the best stuff ever! I'm glad you like the story and I'm also glad you're a Terra hater. MWA HA HA HAAAAAA! Maybe I'll make another story where she comes back and Beast Boy and Raven can kill her together! YAY! Possibly too dark for me…
A Titans fan: Thank you!
OveractiveMind: I actually didn't think I was doing a good job with keeping them in personality, thank you for the reassurance! Can I steal your word flufftacular, I like it! I'm sorry about not updating soon at all…
teenRAVENtitan: Yeah I do like making cliffies, but I guess you'll need to take back the speedy-ness trophy.. (hands trophy and sighs) Well thanks for the review
Regrem Erutaerc: I know the emotions are messed up, I did it on purpose, and I'm sorry to say I'm gonna keep it that way, which is probably going to make you hate the story and never read again but I changed Wisdom to Funny because I couldn't come up with a reason Wisdom would love Beast Boy and I made Love a completely different emotion because I believe that you can have affection for someone else but still not love them. You love your family, but you're not in love with them. In my opinion, love for a family is just a deep affection and being in love is when you know that is person that you would want to spend the rest of your life with and see no faults in them, but when your love shows you his/her faults you end up loving the faults. Oh crap I just lectured you, Sorry I know I must seem quite whiny and rude right now, but that's how I'm going to keep it. Anyway thanks for your review and I really hope you continue to enjoy my story anyway. And sorry, but I don't want anonymous reviews, and the only way to make sure people sign their name is to make them log in.
THEJAYMAN: I'm glad you like the cliff and thanks for the compliments. Sorry the Update took so long, DARN YOU WRITERS BLOCK!
"Therecan't be anyone! What about Cy's security systems? All the lasers and cool stuff like that" Beast Boy said in uncertainty.
"Apparently, they've been disabled…" Raven said in a monotone.
"Turn on the security cameras" Beast Boy said a little shakily.
He was starting to get nervous, so was Raven but she didn't show it. They both had an idea of who was here, but neither of them wanted to say it.
Raven pushed a yellow button and several screens popped up, Raven eyed all of them, there was live feed from everyone's bedroom, the main room, various hallways, the basement, the garage, but one screen was fuzzy.
"Why's that one all fuzzy and messed up?" Beast boy said pointing to the screen.
"According to the computers mainframe, it's out of commission…"
"Which camera was that?"
"The one on the roof…"
With that said they both looked up at the overhead window. A shadow jumped over the window; it looked as if it hovered there for a moment, but Beast Boy realized the shadow was going to break through the window, he would have told Raven but it was too late. There was sound of shattering glass and the sight of something that looked like a human falling from the window. It headed straight for Beast Boy.
"Look out!" Raven cried, she knew he wouldn't get out of the way in time, so she tried to move him with her powers, but her emotions were in too much of a panic to really do much. She couldn't do anything for the moment. It was too late to try and push him out of the way; the thing nailed Beast Boy in the head, sending him to the floor with a kick to the head.
Beast Boy hadn't been knocked out, it just really hurt, and now he was struggling to get the boot off his head.
Of course Raven now recognized the thing; she had already known it was him.
"Slade!" she said with anger, but quickly regained her monotone.
"Hello Raven, I've come for the other half of the bracelet." (If you don't remember the bracelet and what they were going to use them for I suggest you go reread chapter 6) "I can't have you finding my hideout, can I?"
"See if you can find it."
She looked at the couch, it was big and heavy so if she hit Slade just right, it would slow him down. Using her magic she threw it at Slade, a direct hit. It sent him flying backwards against the wall with a loud bang. She knew the couch wouldn't stop him for long, but it would give her time to get her and Beast Boy out of here.
Beast Boy was sitting up now his head in his hands. He looked as if he were in pain. Raven ran over.
"Are you okay to move?"
"I guess…" He said groggily
"Good, Azarath Metrion Zinthos!" A swirling black and purple portal was opened on the floor, she grabbed his arm and pulled him threw.
(In the basement)
Beast Boy landed with a thud and Raven landed gracefully on her feet.
"Owwww… My head hurts more…"
"Let me help" Raven walked forward and placed her hands on his head, they began to glow a light blue. For the moment, he didn't care about the pain. He was staring at Raven's eyes.
When she was done he had a very dazed look on his face, "Is that better BB?"
"Your eyes are really pretty…"
"………What did you say?"
Beast boy immediately snapped out of his daze, he blushed deeply, the red in his green cheeks made Raven think of Christmas.
Beast Boy was trying to think of something to say, until the stunned Raven interrupted his thoughts.
"Never mind that, we have to get the bracelet."
"You hid it here? Hey… where is here?
"The basement."
"Can't Slade see us in the cameras upstairs, we left it on!"
"Relax; Cyborg didn't put a camera in this section."
"Oh, how come you and Cyborg know more about the tower then the rest of us?"
"I helped him draw up most of the blue prints"
"Oh."
"Where did you hide the bracelet"
"Do you always ask this many questions in an emergency situation?"
"Sometimes…"
As they walked, Beast Boy didn't say another word, until the tower settled and made a creepy noise. He jumped behind Raven and hid in her cape.
"I hate the basement!"
"Get out from underneath the cape Beast Boy…"
"Heh Heh, sorry.."
They walked for a few more minutes and then Raven stopped.
"Is this where it is?"
"Yep" She bent down and opened a little hatch that was hidden under a box, she pulled out the bracelet, "We have to get to a room where we can scan this before Slade gets it."
"What better room then Cyborg's?"
"Alright, I'll open another Vortex." Beast Boy heard her speak the incantation and felt himself being pulled into it by Raven. After a short second he felt himself land on the ground again with a thud. Raven once again landed on her feet.
"You gotta teach me how to land like that," he said. He looked around the room. He'd never really been in Cyborg's room. It had computers everywhere, flashing with blue lights. His recharging bed was in the corner, and there was picture next to the bed. Beast Boy went to look at it.
It was a picture of a very happy looking family. The little boy in it looked like Cyborg but without the mechanical parts, the father looked like an older version of the boy and the mother had friendly but forceful and determined eyes, kinda like Cyborg's. This had to be Cyborg as a child. Cyborg had told him about his life before with his family. About how happy they were until Cyborg had his accident. (AN: I don't really know how he got like that… So… work with me.) He never saw his parents again.
A wave a grief fell over Beast Boy, he his ears sank down as he thought of his best friend.
It was interrupted when Raven said, "It's almost done scanning." Beast Boy walked over to the machine and stood next to Raven.
"So we'll know where his hideout is?"
"If it's made out of rare minerals like you said, BB"
They were silent for a while until a loud bang was heard behind them, Raven turned around just in time to get a punch in to face. She fell to the ground in pain.
"Raven!" That's all Beast Boy got out before he got a whack to the back of the head. His world was consumed by darkness.
Slade picked up the other half of the bracelet, he bent down and got close to Ravens ear, "I've come to enjoy our little game, Raven, and it's not over yet. I like the chal… well, I really wouldn't call it a challenge, but it's been fun."
Slade gave her another hit in the head and she was out.
Meanwhile, in Jump City, the other three Titans were looking for Cinderblock. The had been a report of him of Main Street, but when they asked where Cinderblock had gone everyone said they had no idea what they were talking about.
"Why would there be a report of Cinderblock if he's not here?" Robin fumed.
"Well that just means we can go for pizza." Cyborgs said, "And Beast Boy isn't here to make us order a tofu pizza…"
"I still want to know why the hell there was a report! Do you think there's something wrong with your computer Cy?
"There ain't anything wrong with my computer! I built it! It's perfect! She's my other baby."
"Well I have been pondering over the matter as well Robin…" Starfire finally piped in, "I believe I have a theory"
"What is it Star?"
"Recently we have had many encounters with Slade correct? Do you think perhaps he has made the fake call?"
"Why would he make the call, Star?"
"Well when Slade has fought us in the past he is usually one step ahead yes? Perhaps he knew we would leave Raven and Beast Boy at the tower, and he chose that moment to attack."
Robin and Cyborg stared at Star in disbelief with their jaws hanging. She had just made a connection Robin hadn't even come close to thinking of.
"Let's get home!" Robin yelled, with that they all jumped in they car to head home.
When they got home they found Beast Boy sitting on the couch with a bag of Ice on his head and Raven sitting next to him looking concerned.
"Did Slade come!" Robin's question was answered by the stares he received from Beast Boy and Raven, and also when he looked around: the ceiling window was broken, there was a dent in the wall from where Slade had been thrown into it, and the couch looked a little busted.
"Oh… right… I'll go make the call to the construction company, Star you go pick up the glass, Cyborg fix the computers if there's any damage, Raven and Beast Boy go to bed." He gave them a small smile and went to his business.
They left the main room heading for each of their rooms. The walked in silence the whole way, that is, until Beast Boy tried to make conversation.
"So do you think the scanner found out what the bracelet was made off?"
"I'm not sure, we'll ask Cyborg if we can check his computer later for the answers."
"Oh…"
"So, BB, you think I have pretty eyes?"
He stopped, she kept walking for a bit, then turned around and gave him a smirk.
"We were in a high pressure situation, I think it was just nerves… so what if I think your eyes are pretty. Ask anyone, they'll agree!"
Inside Raven's head Love was hopping up and down with Happy. Raven had to suppress a big smile and it was hard.
Beast Boy was looking once again like Christmas.
They continued walking down the hallway.
"I'm kind of surprised you didn't crack a joke through the whole thing BB," She said a little sarcastically.
"Well I just couldn't think of anything" Beast Boy said, then he thought to himself, I love it when she uses my nick name, she used it a lot today… hey she never use to use my nickname!
"Hey Raven?" they were now in front of her door, Beast Boy hadn't realized he'd walked straight past his own door.
"Yeah?"
"Since when do you use my nickname?"
Raven's eyes grew wide, she too had just realized it. She blushed tremendously. She quickly went into her room, but before the door closed she said, "Don't you have to go to your room?" with that she closed the door, but not angrily like he expected just closed it lightly.
He smiled to himself and happily walked back to his room humming "Blue Skies" all the way there.
Never saw the sun, shining so bright.
Never saw things, going so right.
Noticing the days, hurrying by.
When you're in love, my how they fly.
Oh blue skies, smiling at me.
Nothing but blue skies, do I see…
Just cause there's a song in here does not make it a song fic! The song is not mine, it was sung by… I think it was Irving Berlin, or something like that. (I got it from a Star Trek movie (which is also not mine)) Anyway, sorry to all you Robin fans out there, I made him seem kinda dumb. Robin's not my favorite. Thanks to my sister for editing my story, so any mistakes are her fault, not mine. (HA!) Please review!
