Howdy folks. I sincerely hope that you like this chappie. Also, any reviews that I have not replied to yet will be noticed in the next chapter, so look sharp. -O !
Disclaimer: I'm still cooler that you, even if I don't own the Teen Titans. (I wish)
Freedom is silenced slavery.
Sitting on top of the roof, feet dangling off the edge, Crow looked silently across the large expanse of water that led to the city. Heaving a hefty sigh, Crow tried to suppress the urge to cry. It seemed as if Crow's very life was being twisted and turned in some sick game that whatever god was playing. Everything she had ever known seems to be fading away from her. Closing her eyes, she tried to summon up a image of her mother before all this. A image of her and her mother running through the yard as her father chased them with a large water gun floated through her mind. A contempt smile played across her lips before disappearing at the thought of the conversation she had with Raven an hour ago.

"What do you mean you're my daughter?" asked Raven in a choked whisper.
"I mean, you are the one that gave birth to me, and you ar—"
"I know what it means to give birth, and I get that. But … how are you my daughter?"
"Remember, before, back on the roof, I told you about being from the future and every thing?"
"Yes. You mentioned your age as well, and it…. You're really my daughter?"
"Uhhh…sha I am."
"That means… you will be born in a year and a half from now!" Raven reasoned, panic laced in every word she said. A few objects exploded.
"Annnddd your point iiiiiiiiissssssss… what exactly?"
"I – You – But – This can not be happening… no… you were sent here by some one, weren't you? There's no way… I am NOT a mother…I don't do the motherly thing… Who sent you? Why were you sent to me? What do you really want? There is – no – I – You lie!" stammered Raven.
"No… I don't. Look, I'm sure you're in shock right now, sooo…" Crow spoke as she slowly inched towards the door. Raven's once wide, wandering eyes snapped back to Crow.
"Ohh no you don't. You have a lot of explaining to do! Not to mention giving me proof that you really are my daughter, and that you're not toying with me, or some psychopathic freak fan."
Crow grimaced in pain as she tried her hardest not to laugh. Unable to fight her emotions any longer, she fell to the floor in a fit of giggles. Objects all around her flew into the air, bursting, and crashing against each other, or otherwise merely exploding. Raven, taking control over everything in her room, looked at Crow, fire in her eyes.
"What is so damn funny?" she demanded forcefully.
" Ahmmmm hmm hmm aha haha. You're mighty full of your self, making a comment like that."
"I beg your pardon?" said Raven, her right brow rising dangerously high.
"A psychopathic freak fan… come on now… it's funny! " replied Crow, her voice thick with laughter.
"Indeed… hilarious."
Crow sobered up only to start laughing again. Finally calming down, she looked at Raven. Raven's expression was closed. A sight that Crow was getting used to.
"Raven?"
"Get out. I need to meditate."
Crow's expression went from uncertain to hurt to an unreadable blankness.
"Sure thing." replied Crow in a monotone that would have made a computerized voice proud.

Still looking over across the lake, Crow crossed her legs. She knew her mother well enough to know that it wasn't just Raven's need to meditate that she was kicked out. Raven is trying to suppress indubitable furry. And she was the one it was directed towards. Crow gave a dramatic sigh. Maybe she should leave for a while. Just sort of disappear long enough for Raven to calm down, and hope to the gods that she wouldn't get killed in the process...
Hatred101: He He. Next chapter will (I hope) be just as or better than this one.
Crow: I hope so. I don't want to have to finish this story for you.
Hatred101: Whatever.
