The sunlight shined through the window, gently waking Robin. His eyes stung from the brightness of the sun. He rolled over to check the time on his alarm clock. 11:39. Great, I overslept. What will the others think? Starfire will probably be all over me, asking stupid questions, when the answers are obvious. There' s no point in trying to hide it from Raven, cause she knows everything, and Cyborg and Beast Boy will probably stand by for two seconds, then go play their precious Game Station.
He winced as he got out of bed. Pain shot up his back, and straight to his brain. Robin fell to the floor, a cry spilling from his lips. Lucky for him, no one heard. He stumbled into his bathroom, wincing as he struggled to get his uniform off. He went into the shower, the hot water running down his back. It soothed his aching spine.
As he poured shampoo over his head, he wondered why he was so sore. Usually, combat practice would leave a dent, but they practiced two days ago. All I remember was Cyborg, he was doin' something with the control. He switched everybody through me, and now we're all back to normal, or are we?
Robin got out and wrapped a towel around his waist. He reentered his room, changing into a clean uniform. He dried his hair, stood in front of his mirror, spreading lumps of gel throughout his hair. He spun the facet on the sink, filling a glass with water. He filled his mouth with the tasteless liquid, shoving two Tylenol pills down his throat.
Soon the medicine kicked in, and he headed down the main room. His friends were there, performing their usual activities: reading, cooking, and kicking butt on the Game Station. Raven was the first to notice Robin, as he made his entrance. She closed her book and walked over to him.
"Morning Sunshine!" she greeted, a smiled tugging at her lips. "You slept in late. Anything wrong?" She stared into his eyes, hoping they'd give her an answer.
"Nothing's wrong, I'm fine," he answered without skipping a beat. Of course, he was lying, and Raven knew, but she didn't say anything. She kindly let him pass, but Starfire didn't. She ran up to him, locking him into a bone-crushing hug.
"Hello friend Robin!"
"Hey Star." He gently pulled away from her hug, in enough pain already.
Robin fell onto the couch, his eyes slowly closing. His friends stared at him, fearing for his health, and if they'd make the next turn before getting passed by the "Little Grass Stain." Raven sat on the other side or the couch, ignoring the howling monkeys next to her. She had her book open, but wasn't reading it.
What's up with Robin? He seems different. He's usually awake by eight, and he's never taking naps on the couch. It's like his energy was drained or something. I'll ask him once he wakes up.

A few hours later, the leader awoke. Everyone had left the room, so he wandered to his own. He changed out of his uniform into a blue T-shirt and black shorts. He crawled into his bed, staring up at the ceiling. What's happening to me? I've never slept so much. I haven't done anything today, but sleep! What if . . . A knock on the door interrupted his thoughts. He slowly got up and opened it. Raven stood, leaning against the wall.
"Yeah?" he asked sleepily, ruffling his already messy hair.
"Just wanted to check up on you. You've been kinda, well, not yourself lately."
"Don't you think I know that?" he retorted.
Raven was surprised. Robin never yelled at his friends. "What is your problem? You've never yelled at us before, so what makes you start now?"
Robin was fuming with anger. He hands were tightly clenched, his fingernails cutting into his skin. "What's it to you?" he asked. With that, he turned to leave. A hand fell on his shoulder before the door closed.
"Robin," she said softly, a tone of fear in her voice.
"Get lost!" he screamed. Raven's heart skipped a beat as her hand fell to her side. Before Robin shut her out, they both noticed something strange. The light above them exploded, leaving them in total darkness. Raven looked at her hands, but they were normal. Robin stared at her, a scared look on his face. A black aura covered his hands. He ran into his room, shutting the door before Raven could utter a word.

Sorry if it wasn't the best. It's almost 1 in the morning. Yeah, I know, I'm weird, don't worry, I get that a lot. I couldn't sleep, so I decided to write. Ha ha. Now that the 3rd Chapter's done, I'll head to bed. Nyte Doods!
