Raven stroked the leathery wings of her love. it had been 3 hours and they had found out nothing. The computer moniter still showed a giant hour glass and the word "scanning." Why was she tormented like this? Couldn't anything in her life ever go right? She didn't allow herself any tears, not wanting to risk destroying the machinery to which A'lain's life belonged. She felt so alone. The other titans had left her alone. She knew they only did so because they figured she'd want to be alone, like usual. But now she wanted someone to talk to. Someone who would listen, would help her keep from crying. She needed to control her emotions, but didn't want to meditate for fear she would miss something. Tears threatened to spill from behind her closed eyes. She heard a soft knock on the door. She stood, running her fingers down the wings of the tiny dragon as she walked to the door. Opening it, she found Terra standing outside. She smiled slightly and let her in. Terra sat aon a couch near A'lain's bed(i know theres no couch, but its my story, i put one there!) and Raven sat next to her.
"I thought Robin didn't want anyone in here," Raven whispered. trying not to sound like she didn't want her friend there. She did.
"He did. But he also told you guys to give me some time after you brought me back. You didn't. You came to me when I needed a friend. I can tell you need me to return the favor now." Raven nodded and threw her arms around her friend's neck. A window shattered and she sat back up. She didn't want to endanger A'lain anymore than he already was.
"Thank you so much. You're right. I need help. I need to control my emotions, but I don't want to meditate in case something happens."
"You meditate. I'll watch him. If anything happens, the slightest twitch, I'll wake you up. Or whatever you call snapping you out of meditation..." Raven smiled.
"I can't thank you enough."
"Just take care of yourself." Raven nodded and walked to a corner. She levitated and began to chant. Terra knelt beside the bed and stroked the tiny dragon.
"Please, get better. Raven would die without you. You're everything to her. I know you can pull through this, whatever it is." The sweet nothings she whisperedput her into a sort of dreamy trance. Her voice sounded echoey(sp? is that even a word?) to her own ears. Her vision was cloudy. Her hand continued to stroke the scles beneath her fingertips, but she wasn't aware of telling it to. Her eyes closed, but she didn't faint or fall asleep. She drifted into a sort of daydream.
"Terra, I need your help." A'lain's voice echoed in her head. She looked for him, but saw only darkness.
"How? Anything you need, I'll do it!" There was silence for a moment. When the voice came again, it was heavy with sadness.
"The computer will not detect anything. But I promise, there is something seriously wrong. It is a sickness known only to my kind, the elves. If left untreated it will...destroy me. There is only one known treatment that can be preformed in this world, but it will require a lot of work for Raven, you, and Beast Boy, assuming you two are willing to help."
"Of course! I'll do whatever it takes!" The thought of having him die and then surely losing Raven was unbearable.
"Good. Talk to the others. I will tell you what you need to do tomorrow. The communication of one mind to another takes a good deal of energy, so I can't keep it up any longer." Terra faded back to the infirmary where she was still stroking A'lain's helpless body.
