TTG showed the original Teen Titans for 9 seconds and made a stupid joke about it...I'm happy I got to see the original again but I am also FUCKING PISSED OFF BECAUSE THE WRITER'S BASICALLY GAVE A BIG F U TO THE TEEN TITANS FANS!

What is this world going to? Smh


Burning

He felt as if he was burning. A slow, agonizing death as he lay on the ground, breathing heavily.

He knew he should've listened to Batman, that Gotham was a lot more dangerous then he remembered. He should've waited, but no, he just had to go after Ra's alone.

What in the world was he thinking? Ra's had proven that he was almost as good as Batman. How could he be so stupid to go after him alone?! He was starting to wonder if he had a death wish or not.

He probably had, instead of calling Batman for help; he reached for the T-communicator. He just had to hear her voice one last time, before he was gone. Besides, he doubted that Bruce could make it in time.

He looked beside him, the sword that had gone straight through his chest laying beside him, his blood dripping down from it in small droplets.

He pressed call.


Raven allowed one of her rare smiles to show on her lips as she watched Starfire, Beast Boy and Cyborg play a game of 'Extreme' Volleyball. Extreme wasn't really her thing; so she simply sat on the bench and watched.

Robin had left for Gotham a week ago; said Batman needed his help with something and that he'd be back as soon as he could. Jump City had been quiet, and with a lot of begging from the other three, Raven gave in and they all went to the park.

And she was actually having fun, just sitting here, watching her friends- no, family -play one of their stupid games. It made her happy.

The half-demon jumped when her communicator went off, her smile widening when she saw who was calling. "Robin," she greeted.

She frowned when she just heard her leader's ragged breathing at first, her senses screaming at her that something was wrong. But then he started talking and the worries disappeared. "Hey Rae."

"What are you doing? I thought you were on a mission?" He never called while on a mission, unless it was important.

He chuckled, although it seemed he had difficulty doing it.

"Robin? Are you alright?"

"Yeah, I'm fine. Just a little out of breath from fighting Harley, I seriously can't understand how she can be that hyperactive."

A laugh escaped her lips. "So...basically Starfire and Beast Boy combined?"

"Exactly."

"Why did you call?"

"Are you complaining?"

She rolled her eyes. "Just answer, Boy Blunder."

"Just...just wanted...to hear your...voice." He breathed.

"Robin, get some rest, you can't even talk normally." She frowned, concern lacing her voice.

"I...I love you."

Raven ignored the weird feeling she got each time those words escaped his lips. "I know, I love you too, now get some sleep."

The line went dead.

She frowned. "Robin?"

The half-demon called him again; her worry starting to get worse by the second. He wouldn't just hang up on her like that, he never did. Her heartbeat grew faster and faster as nobody picked up the phone.

She was surprised when she got a call from an unknown number though.

Raven looked back at her teammates to see them still happily playing Volleyball, with Starfire winning from both boys. She hesitated at first, but finally, pressed the green button.

"Miss Roth?"

"Alfred? Are you okay? Your voice just cracked...are you crying?" The questions kept coming, she wasn't really used to seeing (or hearing) the old man in distress.

"I...have you spoken to Master Dick lately?"

She frowned. "Yes...he called me three minutes ago. Something was wrong though, Alfred, what's going on?" Her voice grew frantic as her mind started putting the pieces together, it couldn't be true. He was Robin, the leader of the Titans. Sure he wasn't as skilled as Batman but he was pretty damn close, no way could he-

"Right...Of course he did..."

"Alfred?" If the loudness of her voice hadn't alerted the others, the trashcan that exploded most certainly had.

"He was..." her breath hitched and her fear grew as a sob broke the old man's voice. "Going after Ra's Al Ghul...and got killed. I-I'm sorry, I can't do this." She could hear the phone drop, as well as her heart.

A few seconds later the phone got picked up and she could hear Batman's voice. "Raven?"

"Bruce, please tell me this is all a sick joke." She pleaded.

"I...I'm sorry. He got stabbed through the chest...I-I was too late..."

A strangled scream escaped her lips and her communicator dropped. She couldn't focus, she heard all the voices, could see the people, she just couldn't process it. Her mind just went...blank.

She felt as if she was burning, her already damaged heart dying little by little as her mind thought of his last words. He wanted to hear her say she loved him one last time, his last moments were with her and she didn't even know it, until now. Nevermore was chaotic, fire surrounding the whole place, fire that even Rage wasn't fond of as it slowly but surely burned her whole world down.

Was this how it felt when you lost someone?

Raven's powers lashed out, cars and fountains exploded, picnic tables got thrown over, chairs flew around, the volleyball got thrown against someone.

He was gone.

Starfire reached her first, the alien princess flew faster then ever and wrapped her arms around her shaking best friend. The explosions seemed to stop as her hands gripped the redhead's shoulders tightly; her nails probably digging into her skin. Starfire didn't care, her friend needed her right now.

A tear slipped down the alien's cheek as she thought of Robin.

"R-robin, he-he's-" Raven stuttered.

"Shhh, we know, Dark Girl, we know." Cyborg soothed as Starfire rubbed Raven's back to comfort her, arms still tightly wrapped around her.

A green puppy placed itself in the half-demon's lap. Whining as he thought of his fallen leader and his now broken teammate.

"We should go back," Starfire suggested, lifting Raven from the bench as Beast Boy moved away from them. She handed her to Cyborg and walked after the boys as the mechanic teen carried his little sister.

A sob escaped her lips.


Raven sat in the living room, staring at her shaking hands. She wasn't herself, yes, she had always been closed off, but now she was just...numb.

"Raven?" Beast Boy's voice whispered, the green changeling crouched in front of her, worried green eyes focused on her. Although his eyes were a bit red from mourning Robin. "I made you some tea," he motioned to the teacup he placed on the table in front of her.

After minutes of no response, he sighed and walked away.

"Any luck?" Cyborg asked, worried eyes locked on his sister as he leaned against the wall, arms crossed.

Beast Boy shook his head. "Her heartbeat is still normal so she isn't going in shock...she just won't talk."

Cyborg sighed. "She needs some time."

Starfire walked in, her eyes red and puffy from crying so much. She shot the boys a shaky smile before taking a seat next to Raven and hugging the other girl close to her; as a mother would to a hysteric child.

It seemed to get a reaction out of the half-demon, her grip tightened on the alien as she cried into her chest. Cyborg and Beast Boy didn't hesitate to make their way towards the girls.

"Guys," she breathed, her voice croaked. She pulled away from Starfire and wiped her eyes with the back of her hand, she closed her eyes and silently counted to ten as she controlled her breathing. "From now on," her eyes snapped open. "We stick together, no more solo missions."

None of them objected to that.


"How did she take it? Is she okay? Oh man, I knew this was a bad idea!" Robin rambled as Batman walked into the Batcave.

The Dark Knight had managed to get there just in time to save his son. But to keep Ra's from going after the Titans, everyone needed to believe he was dead...including the Titans, and Alfred.

Batman sighed. "I think she blew up half of Jump City."

Robin's eyes widened and he jumped off the table he was sitting on, ignoring the branding pain he felt. "Okay, that's it. I'm going back to Jump. I can keep a low profile, Ra's will never-"

"Robin."

"Bruce, you can't expect me to pretend to be dead when she's clearly breaking down!" He growled.

Batman placed a hand on his son's shoulder. "You know it's for the best. Besides, you're too weak to move right now." He motioned towards Robin's bandaged chest.

"I don't care!" He huffed and ran a hand through his hair in frustration. "She needs me, Bruce- No, wait, forget that. I need her. Don't tell me you wouldn't freak out if this happened with Selina!"

Batman didn't respond.

Robin scoffed and rolled his eyes but didn't comment on it further.

"You really care about her, don't you?" His father asked.

"I-" Robin sighed and sat back down in defeat. "I love her."
