I realize that some of the things I said in the beginning of my last update were kind of unfair (like not updating until someone commented). I apologize, and I appreciate the comments I did get.

The next morning, at about 6 o'clock, being an early riser, Raven came in to check on Blackfire and Beast Boy. She walked into the small guest room to find the green boy asleep in the red armchair, and Blackfire, sleeping restlessly, with a damp washcloth on her forehead. She must have had a fever last night the dark girl deduced by the washcloth. She quietly walked over to Beast Boy and gently tapped his shoulder to wake him up.

"Hey, Beast Boy. Time to change shifts," Raven said quietly

Beast boy woke up groggily and said, "Whaa…?"

"I'm here to take over the watch over our little guest here. I'm just going to get some tea first, do you want anything to eat or drink?"

Beast Boy, still groggy, said, "Huh? ...Oh, no, I don't want anything to eat. What I do want is to go to sleep in my own bed. Sleeping in a chair makes my neck sore." He added a smirk at the end of that statement.

Raven smirked too, and said, "Ok, I'll be right back…Oh, and I'll take the washcloth and run it under some cold water for ya."

Beast Boy nodded and smiled broadly at his fellow titan as she walked out the door, washcloth in hand. There was something about that girl that intrigued him, but he couldn't put his finger on it. Her large, expressive, violet eyes were the kind that he could just drown happily in. He shook his head of such thoughts and checked Blackfire's fever with the back of his hand. She was still burning up, but he could sense that it was starting to get better. Then he heard Raven's footsteps down the hall, and he stood up as she walked in with a piping hot cup of green tea and a cold washcloth.

"She has a-" Beast Boy started.

"A fever? I kind of figured with the washcloth on her forehead."

Beast Boy blushed at how he should have known that she would be that perceptive. He chuckled nervously a bit and said, "Yeah…well...I think I'll be going now."

"Go get some sleep, you," Raven said with what Beast Boy thought was a small smile.

"Ok, I'll see ya later then," the green Titan said, turned around, and walked out the door, hanging a right, towards his room.

Raven's eyes lingered on the doorway, as she thought she felt a slight twinge in her heartstrings. She shook those thoughts from her mind and remembered that she still had the washcloth in her hand. She put it gingerly on Blackfire's forehead. As her finger brushed against the Tamaranean exile's skin, Raven got a strong vision of horrible things—of prisons, faces of the dying, looming figures cast in shadow, searing feelings of pain…it was all scrambled in her mind, and it soon became too much. Raven fell backwards and dropped her tea, breaking the mug it was in. At the sound of the mug breaking, the feverish Blackfire was startled awake, and was hovering over the bed in fighting stance, eyes and fists a-blazing.

"HOW'D I GET HERE? WHO ARE YOU? RAVEN? WHY AM I HERE?" Blackfire roared deliriously.

"Calm down, Blackfire," Raven said calmly, "You showed up at our doorstep, on your own, with that—"

Blackfire passed out onto the bed, after the sudden outburst, which made her wound bleed slightly.

"—wound," Raven finished.

Raven sighed and enveloped the unconscious girl's body with her black energy up to her neck and straightened the girl out. Raven pulled aside the covers and put the girl to bed, replacing the washcloth on her forehead just as Robin, Cyborg, and Starfire rushed in.

"What happened? Did she try to hurt you?" Starfire said angrily, eyes blazing.

"No, no, she didn't do anything. It's just that when I tried to put the washcloth back, I touched her and I got this really strong vision that made me fall over, and the mug broke. Blackfire woke up to that and was startled and disoriented. She started yelling at me, deliriously, and then she collapsed due to the over-exertion," Raven calmly explained.

"Are you sure? Positive?" Starfire insisted.

"I think she's telling the truth, Starfire. Calm down, ok?" Robin said as he put his hand on her shoulder.

Starfire nodded and huffed out of the room just as Beast Boy came groggily in.

"Wha…What happened? Is everything ok?" Beast Boy said sleepily.

"Umm, dude, you're like 20 minutes late. Go back to bed," Cyborg informed his green friend. Beast Boy nodded, walked out the door, and went groggily back to his room.

"So, Raven, what was your vision about?" Robin asked quietly, so that he wouldn't wake up their injured guest.

"Well, it's hard to tell. It was all scrambled up. It's just…I saw horrible, horrible things. Who knows what Blackfire has been through and experienced…" Raven said with her face turned away.

"Can you make any sense of the vision?" Robin asked, his inner investigator coming through.

Raven could only shake her head.

"H-how about we leave my sister alone for a bit so that she can rest, o…o-ok?" Starfire said, staring at the floor with her fists clenched.

"Yes, I think that would be best, considering her condition," Raven agreed.

"Weell, since BB is out like a light, we can have an all-you-can-eat, Cyborg's special breakfast, with absolutely no tofu!" Cyborg said with a huge grin, as hedragged Robin and Starfire into the kitchen for breakfast.

Raven smirked at Cyborg's ability to take a grave situation and turn it into an all-you-can-eat-waffle-extravaganza. She turned back to the gravely injured Blackfire, and attempted to heal her again, to no avail. I wonder what could have caused this wound that I wouldn't be able to heal it. At that thought, Blackfire slowly started to open her eyes.

"W…Where am I?...Who are you?" Blackfire asked weakly.

"One, you're at Titans Tower, and two, I'm Raven."

"W..what? How did I get here?"

"You showed up at our door last night, with that" Raven said pointing to her bleeding wound. "Here, let me help you with that," she said as she pulled out the first aid kit (which was in every room at the tower) and started treating the wound.

"Raven? ... Where is my sister?"

"Eating breakfast."

"She knows I'm here, right?" Blackfire said as she winced in pain as Raven was poking around in her wound.

"Yes, she does, and she's not thrilled, let me tell you…So, how'd you get your wound?"

Before Blackfire could answer, she fell asleep again. Raven sighed and continued to re-dress the alien girl's stomach wound.
