Woo hoo! 3 reviews! It's more than I expected to get. It's probably just those reviews that kept me going. Oh, and the rating might change in the future. Might. Anyway...

Insanity 101: thanks. I will try that, if I can get more of that, maybe it'll be longer. Hopefully. Difference between Broken and this, is that I actually like Broken. But if you say this has potential, I will try. We'll see how it comes out. Oh, and about the boy, you could say that...

Angel Caida: thanks.

Riter 402: yeah, I've actually been thinking about this for a while. Kinda like a daydream, you know? Then I realized I could put it into a story...

"Hurry up! Get him in here! He's still alive, we might have a chance of saving him!"

Cyborg and Robin were in the medical room, acting like professional MD's. Raven just wished she could help. There was something about this boy... it made her uneasy and interested at the same time. She didn't know whether or not to trust him. That wasn't something she liked to feel. Normally she didn't care about a complete stranger, but...

Raven stayed silent as Beast Boy and Starfire paced around the hallway. When the boy hit the water, Beast Boy had gotten him here as fast as he could. Starfire was crying ever since they brought him into the medical room, saying it was her fault. Beast Boy tried to comfort her, but to no avail. She just kept crying, and Raven was getting a headache.

"Starfire, shut up! There was nothing you could do, get over it! Take it like a...never mind. Just shut up!" She had been more on edge lately than ever before. She knew that couldn't be a good sign, but honestly, she really didn't care at the moment.

"Well, the kid's in a coma. It could take him at least a week to wake up. All we can do now is wait and see," Cyborg said, coming out of the room. All of them left, itching to go back to sleep. Except Raven. She stayed behind. She wanted a closer look at him. It was making her angry that she had to be kept in suspense about this.

She walked into the room and immediately noticed the boy's tan skin and handsome face. He had black, thin hair, having enough hair to give him bangs down to his eyebrows. He had no clothing on as far as she could tell. The sheets covering him came up to his stomach. She guessed that was because of the heart monitor wires, and other such things attached to his muscular chest. But she noticed all the cuts, along with a few scars, on his body. Some looked pretty deep, and it looked like Cyborg and Robin tried to fix them. His muscles were nicely toned, more so than Robin's. He wasn't a big person, but he looked to have a good amount of strength for someone who looked a little older than Raven.

She reached forward to open an eyelid, but paused. It couldn't hurt, right? She grabbed hold of his eyelashes and pulled them up. Damnit! Of course, she couldn't see his eyes, they were rolled back in his head! She would have to wait, something she had been doing too much this past week.

She decided to get some sleep. She could always check on him tomorrow.

This time, she actually slept quite peacefully. She woke up feeling relatively refreshed compared to the past few days. It took her a minute to realize why she felt so anxious, but once she remembered, she rushed out of the room, impatient. When she got to the medical room and saw him, he looked the same, yet different at the same time. Something was different she knew. She also knew nothing should be very different after only a few hours, and it scared her a little.

'What is it about this kid? Why is this happening to me?' she wondered. Then she saw it. His cuts had healed more than they should have. A few even turned into scars. Some turned nonexistent. Granted, he looked a lot better, but he shouldn't have. She decided to leave it alone. She would have to wait and see what happened next.

As she left to go get breakfast, she couldn't help but notice how impatient she was becoming. She always had patience, she had pride in it. It was something Robin didn't have a lot of the time, Cyborg and Beast Boy...well, she wasn't going to go there. And Starfire was just so naive, she wouldn't leave you alone, whether or not you wanted her to or not.

As she entered the kitchen, everybody was there except Starfire. Robin was eating...she really didn't know what. Cyborg and Beast Boy had apparently finished. So when she sat down at the table with her breakfast, it was just her and Robin.

"Where'd Starfire go?" she asked.

"Oh, she went to go see if the kid was doing any better. She still feels guilty about what happened, I guess she feels like it's her duty to watch over him or something."

She felt a pang of anger and jealousy at what Robin just said. 'Jealousy? Why would I be feeling jealous? I don't even know the kid!'

Just then Starfire came back, gasping for breath as if she just ran all the way from the medical bay. Wait, running?

"The boy, he has become awake!"
