12 o'clock rolled around faster than Richard expected, and before he knew it he was in front of S.G.G., their usual hangout. (A/N: SGG Super Girl Grill from before..) He jumped off his bike, NOT the R-Cycle sadly, and noticed the giant car next to him, Vic's Baby. He entered the doors and a all too familiar voice yelled at him, with certain moans following after it.

"Yo, Rich! Over here, man!"

"Ugh…do you have to yell?" the goth said rubbing her temples. Ah…the dreaded hangover.

"WHAT?" the giant yelled into her face, along with his skinny green friend.

"DUUDE! DO - YOU - MIND?"

"Not really."

"Guys!" Richard said as he slid into the rounded booth. "So… um, hangovers, huh?"

"Yeah, but what happened exactly last night, because tin-man over here won't tell us!" Raven said throwing her thumb towards Victor. (A/N: Not LITERALLY!)

"Well…" Richard started to say, " Let's just say you and B.B. here, were um, a little closer than usual after a few drinks."

Raven's eyes sprouted into saucers after her best friend's little comment, and they a noticed that a glass of Pepsi broke from the table beside them.

"Ugh…sorry." Raven sweatdropped.

After the four teens ordered their lunches :

A giant burger with everything on it, and a Pepsi for Victor,

A chicken Caesar salad and herbal tea for Ms. Raven,

A tofu burger and Pepsi for Gar,

And just a cheeseburger and Pepsi for Richard –they began to discuss their summer plans. Vic stated that he would be leaving in a week or so to visit his Mom's family in Chicago, and wouldn't be back until the week before school. Raven, on the other hand, planned on working at her favorite café just to earn the cash, and was even considering on going to a one-week poetry camp. Gar, as everyone already knew, was going to Camp Veggie's-and-such, like he did every year. Then there was Richard, who along with Raven, planned on staying in Jump for the summer. He was considering a Martial Arts Camp, but he knew he was too experienced for it, and also there was his duty as Robin. It was then he remembered his dream.

"Hey Raven, I was wondering if maybe you could come over sometime today. I have some questions I need answered about this dream I had last night."

"uh, shouldn't you talk to Gar or Vic about those? I'd rather not hear about your wet dreams." Her monotone voice said with tad disgust lining each word.

"Ha, Ha…It's nothing like that." He growled giving his male comrades a death glare. "It was weird, and … scary. I don't know, I just know that you could help me in figuring it out. So…please?" He slightly quivered his lower lip, in an attempt to win her over with "the look".

"Ugh. Put the lip away, because you really suck at "the look" But yes, sure, I'll help. I'll be over around five." And wit that the teens said their good-bye's, and left their homes.

LATER ON THAT NIGHT AT WAYNE MANOR

"…and then just as the little green orb shout out, I heard the first girls voice again." Richard was explaining the Raven. She seemed confused, but she just listened, absorbing the information he was feeding her about his mysterious dream.

"And she said?"

"I hide my identity, because I'm scared of my destiny…"

"Richard, I hate saying this, but… I can't help you. I'll search my books to see if they anything about these "stones", but since I don't know what they look like or what they have to do with. It'll be hard, but I'll try."

"…and the necklace?"

"Yes, the necklace also."

"Thanks, Raven!"

Just as Richard was leading Raven went out to Gar's car, who had dropped her off, and came back to take her home, Gar spoke through his window.

"Hey Rich! Call me at camp on my cell- alright?"

"Alright Man. Have Fun!" and with that said, the car drove off leaving Richard to ponder over his weird dream.

Little did he know the answer to it was leaving the planet that very instance.
