Hey all, it's Emberwings. Okay, I've got bad news. No, I'm not stopping writing, far from. I'm going to a Creative Writing Camp for the next three weeks, in which I will be away from a computer. -growls- But anyways, I'm so sorry. So I'm here to give you all a sneak peek of the next chapter. I'm so sorry about this, I'll try to write a lot when I come back.

SNEAK PEAK CHAPTER 3: First scene and some of next

A tall figure was silhouetted against the flicking candles. He had a pretty muscular form, and he stepped foreword into the light with surprising grace. He had dark brown hair that was spiked, and his face was quite angular. He wore a black coat, almost the length of a trench-coat, and regular blue jeans. Steely grey eyes surveyed her.

"I'm sorry for disturbing you, It's just, I'm an avid fan..." He trailed off, his voice icy, yet his tone warm.

Raven shut the book with a snap, placing it back on the shelf.

"It's just, it's a pleasure to see you here, not in battle like I mainly do." The icy voice spoke smoothly and confidently, "So tell me, what are you doing here?" A pause, "I hope I'm not bothering you."

Raven's first instinct was to glare, and tell him he was, but there was an odd familiarity about him, and she sighed, shaking her head.

SECTION BREAK

Robin sat, clutching the comforter. He had been here for how long? He was unsure. A loud knock had brought himself to his senses. "Raven? Is Robin there? Sorry to bother you."

Robin stood, shuffling slowly to the door.

"Sorry Rae, really. It's just Beast Boy's driving me insane and it's almost dawn."

Robin pressed the button, his voice a quiet whisper, "Yeah, I'm here..." His voice trailed off slowly.

"Where's Raven?" Cyborg blinked, peering past him. "I was hoping she wanted to come help me make waffles. I mean, it's not as though she'd really want to but..." He stopped abruptly looking at Robin in shock.

"Dude! Where's the mask? Where you too like, making out or something?" He laughed nervously, his eyes still wide with shock.

Robin didn't say anything at first, "No, she just, uh, borrowed-- Never mind. I'm tired. Can you move?"

"Uh... yeah..." Cyborg took a step back from the door, but still gave Robin a weird look.

"You, you have eyes. It's... crazy."

SECTION BREAK

OKAY, that's the beginning of the chapter. But just to satisfy you more, I brought with me a really secret, amazingly special, spectacular short snippet from the future. However, this is in the future, and there are spoilers of this fic. I highly suggest you read only if you really feel it is necessary. Stop and think if you want to ruin the surprise, because only you can decide. The first is not as spoiler-rigged as the second though it sort of shows something about who will come back... AH! Giving it away, bad me! The second is a lot more of a spoiler-rigged one, and it's essential to the plot, and you'll probably kill yourself for reading.

Robin clutched her hand, smiling, his voice whispering softly, his tone confident and sincere. "It's okay. It's okay. We'll face him and win."

His hand twitched before rising to brush the loose hairs from her face.

"How can you be so sure?" Raven's voice had become slightly more confident, her eyes still wide and questioning.

"Good always triumphs over evil, Rae."

Raven's eyes closed as a painful thought brushed her conscious. Am I evil..?

Robin watched her shake her head, "What?" He was surprised to see the sudden leap back from confidence.

Raven spoke quietly, pulling her hand away to wring it on her lap, eyes staring at her knees, "What am I, Robin?"

The question was not accusatory, more of a thoughtful question, like a confused child would ask a parent.

The words questioned him, the room, even herself in a thoughtful, hurting way. She rose her eyes to look into his, turning her head. She spoke again, this time almost asking herself. "What am I?"

SECTION BREAK

Raven sat in the corner, blood dripping down her face. Thoughts swirled through her mind, each one leading her deeper into this situation. In pain and frustration she ground her teeth together. Was she making this any better, for her or the Titans? She'd gladly stay away and face him alone if that was what it took to leave them be. Something told her that they they weren't safe, but she tried to ignore the instinct, trying to convince herself more of this. Was there no escaping fate? It was always there, just around the corner, behind your back, hanging from the ceiling, ready to jump out when you least suspect it. In deep remorse and desperation her thoughts turned to the unthinkable. What could I do to escape? To save everyone? A thought drifted up, unwanted but found, and it twisted her mind,. Once thought it could never turn back.

Would I die, just to save the world?

SECTION BREAK

There you go, if you read, I hope you enjoyed. If not, then you will enjoy them later.

The second is still murky, and will need touching up, the first as well.

Please let me know if you read the spoilers what you thought of them, any suggestions are fine as well.

Also, I apologize for the disorder, I'm in a rush, and I needed to let you all know.
