Study Hall

Raven was sitting in fifth period study hall with Vic, and Gar. Kori was about five minutes late.

"Gosh I wish Kori would get here!" Raven whispered to Vic.

Just then Kori walked in along with Richard Grayson. Raven watched as they walked up to the table Raven Vic and Gar were seating at. They were setting at the table in the back of the library so they could talk and have as much privacy as possible in study hall.

Kori walked over and took the empty seat next to Gar and Richard took the only other empty seat left which was next to Raven.

"Hey Raven," Richard said as he sat down next to her. "Hope you guys don't mind that I joined you but Kori invited me to join you."

"How do you know my name?" Raven asked. "I didn't tell you it earlier."

"Your friend Kori told me your name." Richard said as a teacher came up to there table.

"Ms. Roth may I speak to you about your algebra grade?" Mr. Margin said touching Raven's shoulder.

"Yeah," Raven said as she got up and followed Mr. Margin as he walked away from the table but not far enough that they couldn't hear what he told her.

"Ms. Roth you are failing my class. As I'm sure you know from your last test paper."

"Yeah." Raven said remembering her Mom's face when she had to sign the test.

"Well if you don't score an A on the next test you will fail my class and you will have to attend summer school."

Raven groaned as she thought of what her mom would say if she knew that Raven was probably going to spend half her summer in school.

"And to help you raise your grade I found you a tutor who I think will help you a lot. Mr. Grayson has agreed to help you. And even though he is a new student after seeing he's test grade which was so high he barely missed the advanced math class. I was over joyed that he agreed so quickly." Mr. Margin said.

Raven looked at him for as second thinking "He can't be serious!" Then he told Raven to go back to her seat and that was it.

She sat down in her seat and saw Gar opening his mouth to say something about her failing algebra.

"Say a word and I'll show everyone that home video your Mom showed me last week when I came over." Raven said knowing it would shut him up fast. She smiled as he mouth shut and he turned a little red. She just loved having black mail on him.

"Rae what was on the video?" Vic said looking at Raven.

"Oh it was so funny!" Raven said but she was interrupted by Gar.

"NOTHING! It's nothing you would like." Gar said a panicking look on his face.

Flash Back

Raven was almost six years old and was moving for the fifth time in her life.

"Raven honey, sit still." Arella said as she began cutting Raven's hair off. They were on a train heading somewhere but Raven didn't know where yet. They had been found by the bad guy's again or at least that's what her mom had told her.

She had used her powers on accident at school because a kid had hit her and she had gotten mad causing her powers to send the kid flying a hundred feet in the air.

She never found out what had happened to the kid because she had ran home and told her mother what happened and they had immediately packed and ran out the back door of there house and to the train station they bought tickets for the train that was leaving in five minutes and rushed aboard it.

Arella pulled her into there private booth and shut the doors then she pulled out some scissors and began cutting Raven's long hair which was down to Raven's hip. Arella cut it up to Raven's shoulders.

When Arella finished cutting Raven's hair Arella helped Raven to meditate.

"Azarath, Metrion, Zinthos" Raven said then she was pulled into a vision.

Her father was fighting a big solider. Her father was losing.

The solider knocked him to the ground. Then her father began saying some type of spell that Raven couldn't hear at first but then it began to become a whisper then it got louder and louder until Raven's ears were ringing with the voice.

Raven felt like she was watching a movie. She finally began to understand her father's words as the solider pulled the knife back aimed for her father's heart.

"Give my powers to my daughter so she's safe. Add to her powers of Telekinetic and telepathic powers to make her stronger"! (A/N: Okay I know I'm really bad at making up spells and that this probably makes no sense. But I had to post it in this chapter for it to work out the way it does.)

Everything went black and Raven fainted.

When Raven came to her mom was wiping her face with a cold rag.

End of flash back

The bell rang announcing the end of school. Raven was walking home by herself since Gar had decided to take the bus and Vic and Kori had went to the library so Vic could help her with her math since Kori was in the same situation as Raven.

Raven was less then a block away from her house when Richard ran up.

"Raven! Hey wait up!" Richard hollered from behind her. Raven rolled her eyes and stopped. She turned around as he ran up.

"Yeah," Raven said.

"I was hoping we could get together later tonight so I could help you with your math." Richard said as they began walking to Raven's house.

"Uh… Yeah sure." Raven said as they made it to her street.

"So what time do you want me to come over?" Richard aske stopping out side of the house next door to Raven's. He opened the gate and Raven starred at him.

"You live there?" Raven asked shocked.

"Yeah, didn't I tell you earlier me and my family just moved to town." Richard said.

"No I don't believe so." Raven said. "Oh how about seven?"

"Yeah I'll see you at seven." Richard said closing the white gate fence.

Raven jumped over her fence and rushed up the steps to her house. Richard was just opening the door to his house and he smiled at Raven then stepped in and closed the door.

Raven rolled her eyes and opened the doors to her house and stepped in. She closed the door to her house and rushed up stairs to her bed room.
