A/N: Well I decided to put this half up this weekend since I did promise you a chapter every week, so it's short, but the next half isn't finished yet. I hope I stayed in character and I hope you like it! RR!
Disclaimer: Plain and simple, I do not own Teen Titans.
The town was in an uproar, their hero's had turned into their enemies, they weren't prepared for this, what now, what happens when the people you had depended on to protect you, are the ones you now have to be protected from. Nearly everyone had hidden themselves and their families inside of their house, no one could sleep anymore, they were to afraid their friends and family would be destroyed by the rouge powers of the girl they used to trust with their lives. Of course there were those few, there would always be the few that would believe in their hero's no matter what happened to the city. Those who's lives had been saved by the Titans, those who could never except their hero's had turned against them. There would always be those few who new the Titans as the people who had saved their lives more than once, the five kids who had accomplished the impossible and done so much good. It was the few that kept faith in the Titans that helped the Titans keep faith in themselves, maybe they could turn things around, maybe they could regain the trust of the city, maybe they could be heroes once again.
Robin sat in his room alone, he had been through this once before, he had been a villain, and he had promised himself it would never happen again. He had broken that promise to himself, and he had broken that promise to his team. He was losing them, every one of them. He had lied to them, he hadn't told them everything he knew, he had put his team in danger, and he had broken his word, he had failed to protect Raven from herself. What was he going to do, what option did he have, his team suddenly seemed out of his reach, was it over, was this the end of the Teen Titans.
Cyborg, same as after the defeat at the bank, continually stared at the computer in his room or pushed himself farther than he knew was possible in the weight room. He avoided most the Titans, but they were used to it, though they were worried about their friend, they felt there was nothing they could do to reduce the insane amount of blame he put on himself in these situations. Cyborg was slowly beginning to lose faith in his team, and it was this feeling, and the feeling of defeat, that pushed him into an extreme fatigue. What was it Raven and Robin were hiding from the rest of the team, what was it Slade knew that had pushed both of them, especially Raven, over the edge, and why was it, after his defeat of Brother Blood, his three best students had returned?
Starfire had seen some terrible things on Tamaran, as well as earth, but had never experienced the kind of betrayal and confusions as she had these last few days. What was going on with her friends, what was going on with the city, for though the Titans refused to answer the questions she asked, it wasn't hard to see what was wrong. The Titans hadn't just lost a battle, the had lost the trust they had built up with their city and each other, they had lost faith in their friends, and the city had lost faith in them, in one day it seemed they had turned an entire world against themselves. But what were they to do, should they have let the guards take Raven away, should they have let Beast Boy be shot, when was it they went wrong, just now, of long ago, when they had accepted Raven as the fifth member of the Teen Titans. No, Raven was not a mistake, Raven disserved to be a Titan as much as any of the others, she would not lose faith, she refused to let herself have any doubt, the her and her friends would make it through this… wouldn't they.
Beast Boy was in a constant battle with himself, he would not leave Raven's side, not even when she woke up, he had to much to figure out, to much to think about. Why him, why was it always him, he always tried to shake off the feeling of hatred, and depression away with jokes, but what would happen to him when jokes weren't enough. It had happened with Terra, for she had changed his life forever, there wasn't a day that went by when he wasn't reminded of her, he had never truly been his old self after she created her own grave in stone, for he had loved her, or he thought he did. The same thing was happening to him now, what would happen to Raven, would she be okay, everything he looked at reminded him of her in some way, he looked outside every few minutes just to be sure the guards wouldn't come back for her, he refused to leave the room in fear she would be gone when he looked back in, he refused to look away in fear the slow rise and fall of her chest would stop. He didn't love her, he couldn't, not this girl, anyone but this girl. No, he didn't love her, they were just friends, good friends.
Raven was fighting a constant battle inside her head, he was there, he wouldn't leave her alone, he didn't just plan on defeating the Titans, he planed on tearing them away from each other slowly and painfully, they he would take down each individual one. For the reason the Titans had never been defeated was because of their strength as a team, because of their trust in each other, and once that was gone, there would be nothing left. Raven was the only one who could stop him, and she promised herself she would, it didn't matter if she lost her life in the process, the Titans were the only friends she ever had, they were the only ones who truly accepted her for who she was. She would not let them fall, no matter what, the Titans would live on.
A/N: Like I said, it's short, but next week I'm hoping it'll be better and longer! Please review! Good or bad! I don't care! Just review!
