Robin hung his head, a deep longing in the pit of his stomach where his love had once been. Raven looked at him seeing no further than his skin. A feeling that she had never been forced to feel, it meant that she was disconnected from everyone now; the one who had always felt she deserved a second chance now could only grovel at the feet of regret and loneliness.
(A/N I almost wish that I could publish this…. Sorry for the interruption.)
Robin stood, wavering and then tripping, wrongly guessing the height of his younger body and falling to the floor, "Raven, this doesn't make sense, they still have me! I know it! They've done this before, you're dead, and your father killed you! I'm hallucinating."
Raven backed away from him, sitting on another cot, hoping that her tranquility might perhaps rob him of his paranoia. She closed her eyes, searching, if not for a bond, then maybe just a sliver of emotion she could grasp onto and calm. Robin gaped around like a crazed animal. He stood quietly, when a mind adjoined his. Like a seductive tendril it probed his consciousness.
Out of fear Robin grasped a large heavy metal chair and leaped over the bed bringing it down upon Raven's head. Raven screamed and clutched her head tumbling backwards over the bed and scampering to his unstable feet, the room swaying. Her last view was of Robin flying over the cot and smashing her temple. Robin tripped and fell onto Raven as he landed. He lay there, smelling her aroma and feeling her body up against his. He touched her curled hand and threw himself off of her in horror, his delirium thrown away as he felt her cold daemon skin.
Cyborg walked in purposefully and Robin darted for the door. Cyborg grasped for Robins short black cape but missed and began to pursue him, calling Beast Boy in for help. The changeling tore around the corridor, his paws thumping methodically around the turn, keeping in tempo with Cyborg's more metallic sounds. His heart still slow, not even fatigued, he roared attempting to demoralize Robin but the try failed and Robin was tackled by an eight hundred pound lion. Robin's shoulders were pressed to the floor and he was rendered immobile. Cyborg walked over and put Robin to out cold.
