Thank you for all the reviews!

Raven thought about her session with Renseia. She felt more at ease, the woman somehow managed to affect her. She felt so comfortable with the woman. She felt like she could tell her anything and everything. Suddenly a building exploded in front of her. Raven stepped out of the way and let the debris drop down on the spot where she once stood. She then saw a man in purple jump suit coming out of a bank. She waited patiently for the arrival of the titan girls. In a matter of seconds, they were there.
Light had the power to conjure lighting balls and thunder waves. She attacked the man with her powers and the man dodged each attack easily. The man threw a car at Light and it was intercepted by Alkaline. Alkaline possessed super strength, super speed, and the power to make things explode when she touched them. She could power up anything she touched and turn it into a bomb which she can trigger at will. Alkaline threw the car aside and picked up a metal pipe. It glowed yellow and she threw it at the man. It exploded and caused the man to fly back. Nightingale used one of her gadgets and made a net to tie the villain with. The villain cut through the net and made a dash for Nightingale.
'These girls are good but they're not good enough...' Raven was about to interfere when suddenly a green starbolt was fired directly at the man. He was rendered unconscious by the intensity of the starbolt. 'I know that attack!' Raven thought to herself. She looked up the direction from where the bolt came. She saw a red head in a red suit. 'It can't be!!!' Raven looked at the figure with her wide eyes. 'She's supposed to be dead...' Raven felt her heart race as she hurriedly flew away from the scene. Raven rushed to her apartment. She tried to calm herself down as she rambled on and on about how Starfire was about to be dead. '3500 years... she's not supposed to be here anymore.' Raven thought as she walked around in circles. She tried to make a logical explanation for the existence of the red head. Renseia suddenly appeared in Raven's apartment. She looked at Raven and noticed how disturbed the girl was. Renseia hurriedly approached Raven and placed a comforting arm on her shoulder.
"What's wrong?" Renseia asked.
"I don't know how... but I think she's still alive."
"Maybe she's a relative... she could be a descendant."
"Could be... but"
"But what?"
"She just looks exactly like Starfire, only a little bit older, and their fighting moves are the same... and what I felt when she approached. Its a feeling only Starfire gave me."
"If it was her what would you do?" Raven faced Renseia and looked into her eyes.
"Huh? What do you mean??" Raven arched her eyebrow. Renseia smiled at her clueless pupil. She began to stroke Raven's hair and continued to smile at her.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Raven was awakened by the sounds that were coming out of the kitchen. She slowly got up of her bed and walked towards her door. She opened it and headed for the kitchen to investigate the disturbance. She saw Renseia cooking breakfast. Raven sat down on the table and watched Renseia cook.
"Don't worry I didn't stay over. I just came in early." Renseia looked at Raven and saw that Raven was in deep thought. Renseia cleared her throat and got Raven's attention "Still thinking about yesterday's events?" Renseia asked as she served Raven. Raven nodded and ate her food.
"I can't stop thinking about it." Raven admitted.
"Why don't find you find out if its really her?" Renseia asked as she ate her own plate.
"No... I don't want to know if its her."
"If you say so." Renseia said as she cleared the plates. "Up for a little training?"
"Always. I have to get changed first." Raven got up from her chair and walked to her room.
"By the way..." Renseia shouted after Raven.
"What?"
"Go grocery shopping after our training session." Renseia heard the loud groan that Raven let out and smiled. After the training session, Renseia handed Raven a list. Raven let out a heavy sigh and walked away , leaving a very entertained Renseia. Raven got to the grocery store, picked up all the items and walked out the door. Raven carried her grocery bags. 'Amazing really... after 3500 years you still have to carry your grocery home.' Raven thought as she struggled to lift all the items at once. She couldn't use her powers because she was in public. She piled each grocery bag on top of the other. 'I wonder if it really was her. Not that I care or anything.' Raven thought to herself. Her thoughts were interrupted by a feeling of warmth that crept throughout her entire body. She looked up and saw someone falling from the sky. She flew up to a roof top and placed her groceries down on the roof. She then flew up again and intercepted the sleeping woman. Raven held the bloody woman in her arms. The identity of the woman wasn't a shock to her because she knew exactly who that woman was before she looked up in the sky.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Raven contemplated whether or not to leave the woman or not. Raven stood still as the bloody woman in her arms continued to bleed. Her always emotionless eyes were not empty anymore. The hole in her heart suddenly stopped getting deeper.
"Starfire." Raven said she held Starfire in her arms. One arm in between Starfire's legs and another supporting Starfire's back. She knew at that moment that this was not Starfire's descendant, but it was Starfire herself. Starfire gently lifted her eyes and looked upon her savior. Starfire didn't know whether she was in heaven or was hallucinating, but she said the name of the person that had been dreaming about night after night.
"R..Raven" Starfire took what was left of her strength and held tightly onto Raven as Raven and her began to fly away. 'She remembers me?' Raven said to her self. She cradled the injured girl closer and headed for the titans tower. She opened the door and walked in. She hurriedly started looking for the infirmary. She passed the other titans with such great speed that they didn't even see them, only felt them. They followed the trail of blood. Raven got to the infirmary with the unconscious Starfire in her arms. She put Starfire down on the table and began to look for first aid kit.
"It's you...." Light and Nightingale said.
"What happened?" Alkaline asked. The three girls all managed to follow the blood to the infirmary room. They saw Starfire on the table and quickly rushed to her side. Raven came in with the medical supplies and sat next to Starfire. She began to mend all of Starfire's wounds and clean them. She didn't care that the girls were there she just wanted Starfire to be alright. The girls saw how much care the mysterious warrior had for Starfire. She always looked so empty but here she was, tending to Starfire with such gentleness and care. She bandaged up Starfire and continued to sit at Starfire's side and stare at her as the girls left the two alone.
"After all that's happened... I didn't leave you out there to die. I saved you. After your betrayal, your misguidance... I still saved you." Raven said as she gazed upon Starfire with her emotionless eyes.
"R.. Ra..Raven..." Starfire said as she went through, what seemed to be a nightmare. The sound brokw Raven from her thoughts and she began to stroke Starfire's hair.
"Shhhh... don't worry Star I'm here." Raven whispered and Starfire calmed down. Raven's eyes shot open and she backed away from Starfire. She flew away form Starfire, not noticing the three shocked figures that stepped on the doorway. Raven landed to the beach and revealed her demonic form. She kneeled down the sand and looked down on them with wide eyes. A battle began in her as she fought to put her feelings back in their cage.
"How can this happen? She hurt me! I hate her." Raven yelled out. She was engulfed in black and the light spread out and covered the entire beach. Raven then fell on the ground, her pain suddenly stopped. She got her one desire, she didn't know how it happened but now, she could no longer feel the pain or the confusion. She arose form the sand and wore the same empty expression that she had been accustomed to after all these years. Only now her eyes were emptier then before, proving that she reached her goal. She started to fly back to the roof top she put her groceries on. She then headed back home to her apartment. Raven arrived at the apartment and found Renseia on the couch. "The sooner I destroy this place the better." Raven said to no one in particular in a cold and heartless tone. She headed for her room and slammed the door.
"All my doing, down the drain." Renseia shook her head as she vanished from the room.
