"We need to move! NOW!" I could hear Robin scream to the team, fighting off the urge to leave his friends behind and fight on his own. But Starfire was not the type to allow that to happen so easily. As her and Raven flew close behind Robin, keeping an ever watchful eye on him, Beast boy and Cyborg were a few yards behind and to the right, Beast boy as a pterodactyl and Cyborg in his talons.
"Friend Raven…Are you sure you are able to handle the Slade? You look far too pale and you're cut up…" At this, Raven turned her head to face her one and only female friend, her hood blown back in the wind she smiled at her, not a strong or particularly noticeable smile, but it was there, none the less.
"I'm sure, Star. I can handle this…" Star returned her smile, but in her heart, she knew that what raven said was a lie. She couldn't handle it. X'Hal herself wouldn't be able to hand it. She returned her view to her flight plan, just as Raven fell out of the sky, landing in a heap on the roof top of the building.
"RAVEN!" Star cried as she flew down to meet her fallen comrade and lover.
"TITANS! RAVEN'S FALLEN, FOLLOW STAR!" Robin yelled, changing his course and jumping off his bike, launching a grappling hook and pulling himself up the side of the building at an amazing speed, follows by Beast Boy and Cyborg, who were using slightly…different methods.
"Raven…Raven, please…awaken …." Star cradled her softly in her lap, brushing a piece of hair away from her face.
"Mmmmm….." she shifted and Star quickly reacted, shaking her shoulders gently. "Raven! Please…You must come back to the waking world! No more pleasant dreams now, please!" She felt a hand on her shoulder.
"Star…You need to get her back to the Tower…We'll take care of Slade." Star nodded silently, lifting Raven up and flying off with her, waiting until she was out of sight to unleash her tears.
