Chapter 9: Finding Raven!
"This is the kitchen." Rosemary stated, as she showed Raven the crumbled area of The Black Rose Café. Taking in her surrounding, Raven was shocked at how destroyed this café was.
"This place may look shabby, but it actually has quite a few customers." Rosemary smiled at Raven's reaction, and so she ledRaven to the main bar.
"This is where we sell drinks, and food." Rosemary stated, as she showed Raven the different compartments.
"Okay." Raven murmured, looking at the dusty bar carefully. Dust seemed to swarm the area like a tsunami engulfing a island, and Raven gave a few small cough.
"Here is you test, Ms. Roth." Waltzing over to a cabinet, Rosemary removed ten full wine bottles from a shelf. Grabbing a tray that lay on the counter, she placed the ten bottles on the plastic carrier.
"I want you to carry these bottles to that table without spilling a drop." Rosemary explained, as she pointed to the table at the far end of the room.
"Sounds simple enough." Raven grumbled, as she grabbed the tray full of wine bottles from Rosemary. Two steps later, the wine bottles came to a toppling halt as they hit the ground. Luckily, Rosemary was smart enough to fill the wine bottles with water instead of wine.
"Shit." Raven growled, as she looked at the large puddle that spread across the tiled floor. Rosemary looked at Raven with a evil smile playing across her pretty face.
"It's not as easy as it looks is it? Rosemary asked, as she got a broom out of the storage closet.
"Me and my family used to own this restaurant, but my son is leaving for college summer." Rosemary smiled sadly, as she sat down at a barstool with the broom in hand..
"My husband died about twenty years ago." Rosemary said, as she looked at Raven happily.
"You look so young." Raven stated, as she looked at Rosemary in surprise.
"I was only fourteen when I got pregnant, and I got married to the guy who did it." Rosemary murmured, as she smiled at Raven.
"How old are you, Raven?" Rosemary asked, as she clambered off the stool she was sitting on.
"I'm eighteen, but why?" Raven asked, as she looked at Rosemary curiously.
"Your pregnant aren't you." Rosemary asked, as she looked at Raven with a smile. Looking down at her stomach in surprise, Raven nodded hesitantly.
"Don't look so surprised! I could tell from the moment I saw you." Rosemary chuckled, as she leaned herself against the wall.
"Your hired." Rosemary drew her arm back, and threw the broom straight at Raven's pale face. Catching the broom in her hands, Raven looked at Rosemary with a emotionless expression on her face.
"Why did you hire me? I failed the test." Raven exclaimed, as she glared at Rosemary curiously.
"You remind me of myself when I was your age." Rosemary chuckled, as she turned to walk away.
"Alright." Raven stated, as she stared at the broken glass on the floor.
"Clean that up, and you start tomorrow at 5:00. Don't be late!" Rosemary grumbled, as she marched out of the room.
Meanwhile….
"We checked everywhere! Where could she be?" Beast Boy squealed, as they finished searching Jump City for the fifth time that day.
"If we checked everywhere, then we would have found her." Cyborg stated, as exhaustion took over him.
"It's highly probably that she left Jump City." Robin said, as he eyed the bright moon overhead.
"Friends, maybe we should return home." Starfire stated, as she yawned with arms outstretched.
"Star's right, we could all use a rest." Robin murmured, as he turned towards Titans Tower.
"We haven't found Raven yet!" Beast Boy cried, as he tried to convince the others to continue their search.
"Beast Boy, we're all exhausted! We'll be able to search again in the morning!" Robin stated, as he continued walking towards Titans Tower.
"I guess." Beast Boy whispered, as he ran to catch up with the other Titans ahead of him.
"Don't worry. We will find Friend Raven soon." Starfire stated, as she placed a hand on Beast Boy's shoulder.

2 weeks later….
"Why does everything come in pink?" Raven questioned, as she searched the many stores for baby cribs. Feet shuffling on the floor, Raven wandered the store half mindedly.
"Where are you, Rosemary?" Raven questioned, as she waited at the front door for her employer. They had become fairly good friends, and Raven had actually grown fond of the older lady.
"Can I help you, ma'am?" A young teenage worker asked, as he eyed her very carefully.
"No!" Raven snapped, as she looked back at the young man carefully.
"I better call her." Raven stated, as she walked towards a pay phone. After trying Rosemary's telephone several times, Raven decided to return home. Prancing towards her black Metro, Raven wondered where Rosemary could be. The woman was never late, and she would at least call if she wasn't going to show up for something.
"She better have a good reason." Raven grumbled, as she unlocked her tiny car. Arriving at her household, she checked her phone messages. Their were a few from a boy who had hit on her all last week, but none from Rosemary. Erasing the remaining messages, Raven waited by her telephone worriedly.
"It's already 10:00. She would have called by now." Raven whispered, as she returned to her bed. Sleeping unsoundly, her night was filled with nightmares that caused her night stand to break. Awakening from her slumber at early morning. Raven immediately searched her phone messages.
"She has some nerve!" Raven cried, as she forced herself into her work uniform. Hoping that Rosemary would be at The Black Rose Café, she marched out the car. Hopping into her black metro, Raven drove to work. Once she arrived, Raven was shocked to find a bunch of police cars surrounding the premises. Running towards the heard of crowding officers, Raven was gripped panic.
"What happened?" Raven cried, as she looked at the front lawn of the restaurant.
"Miss, you have to stay back." One of the officers stated, as he looked at her amusingly.
"I work here, and the owner is a friend of mine. I used to work for the Teen Titans as well!" Raven said haughtily, as she tried to push past the police officer.
"Alright, let me see your drivers license." The police officer grumbled, as Raven pulled out her drivers license.
"It seems like everything is in order." The police officer stated.
"Fine, but what happened." Raven asked, as she tried to calm her trembling emotions.
"There was a fight, and your friend Rosemary got hurt when she tried to stop it." The police officer grunted, but soon offered Raven a warm smile.
"My name is Ted." The police officer muttered, as he offered Raven his hand.
"Where is Rosemary?" Raven questioned, as she ignored his outstretched hand.
"Apparently, she is staying at the St. Marcio Hospital." Ted stated, as he pulled his hand back in realization that Raven was not going to shake it.
"I can take you there if you would like." Ted murmured, as he ushered his hands towards the car.
"I have my own car." Raven hissed, as she turned around sportily.
"It's dangerous to drive after a shock like this." Ted said, as he grabbed onto Raven's arm gently.
"No, I'd rather drive myself." Raven snapped. Turning around, Raven realized that she had parked the car in a red zone.
"I won't give you a ticket for parking in a red zone if you drive with me." Ted bribed, with a fetching smile.
"Aren't you supposed to be a police officer?" Raven groaned, as she looked at Ted angrily.
"Yes." teased, as Ted smirked at Raven evilly. Automatic dislike coursed through Raven's veins, but she knew that she no choice.
"I guess." Raven hissed, as she allowed herself to be ushered to Ted's car.
"I knew you'd warm up to me." Ted joked, as he forced Raven into his passenger seat.
"…………"
"Come on! Don't be like that!" Ted cried, as Raven remained silent.
"………………"
"Fine, give me the silent treatment." Ted clicked his tongue at the top of his mouth in annoyance. Driving a few miles, they reached the St. Marcio Hospital.
"We're here." Ted stated, as he helped Raven out of the car. Annoyance still on high, Raven walked inside the hospital.
"What hospital room is Rosemary staying in?" Raven asked, as she tried to stop herself from ripping Ted apart limb by limb.
"You only talk to me when you want something." Ted pouted, causing Raven to roll her eyes in extreme annoyance. Deciding to go to the receptionist instead of being bugged by Ted, Raven trudged the last few meters.
"What room is Rosemary Martindale in?" Raven questioned, as the hospital receptionist looked at her curiously.
"Are you family or friend?" The receptionist asked.
"Friend." Raven muttered. Ted arrived shortly after, and the need to strangle someone was extreme now.
"Room 219." The receptionist smiled.
"Your no fun." Ted grunted, as Raven rushed off to Rosemary's room.
"Look! Will you stop following me?" Raven hollered, as she couldn't take Ted anymore.
"No." Ted stated simply, as he continued to chase her down. Finally they reached Rosemary's room, and Raven was extremely relieved. Letting herself in the room as quickly as possible, relief filled her when she saw her friend.
"Hello Raven." Rosemary greeted, with a small smile. Surprise filled Raven, when she realized that Ted had not followed her into the room.
"I'm glad to see you." Raven said, as she relaxed slightly.
"Was the emotionless Raven, worried about me?" Rosemary teased, as she gave her a small smile.
"I have something I need to talk to you about." Rosemary grimaced, as she tried to sit up in the hospital bed.
"You should rest first." Raven cried, as she returned to Rosemary's side.
"No! This is important." Rosemary stated, as she gave Raven a small smile.
"What is it?" Raven asked, as she felt worry once again fill her.
"I want you to run the restaurant for me." Rosemary stated, as she looked at Raven softly.
"Why?" Raven questioned.
"The doctor said that I should consider taking a year of vacation. Your just the girl for the job." Rosemary whispered.
"I have no idea what I'm doing! I dropped two of my orders yesterday!" Raven panicked, as she leaned against the wall.
"You'll get used to it." Rosemary smirked, as she gave Raven a look of warmth.
