Yaaay:)

CharmedNight Skye: What are you talking about? Robin never heard Raven's thoughts:( mutual song? ... Did I make a mistake?...--Waaaa! I'm so confused!...


Chapter 4: Robin's Night Out

"Raven."

She opens her eyes and turns to Robin and finds that he isn't looking at her. Though his feet are now planted on the ground (not anymore trying to mock Raven's position), he still sits on the stool, eyes fixed on the view before him.

She follows and turns her gaze on the view as well. Sunset... It's that time already?

"I've never really seen the sunset from this roof in a while," he quietly says. "Wow.."

The sun, half hidden behind the rest of Jump City, stays as the center of the orange glow in the sky. Clouds surround it--It simply looks quite like a picture or a painting of the sunset.

"Maybe I should come here more often," he says, finally turning to Raven. "Unless you'd be disturbed," he immediately adds defensively.

"I don't mind," she calmly states, happy with his idea as well.

"Great." He looks back at the view. About to do the same thing, Raven remembers something..

"Aren't you going somewhere?" she asks.

Suddenly surprised, Robin says "I don't remember telling you 'bout that." He turns back to her, a slight look of confusion on his face.

Busted. What should I tell him? Raven looks away from Robin. "I went down to get some tea, then I heard you two talking," she lies.

"Oh. Well, you're right anyway," he says, standing up and having one last look at the sunset and, too, at Raven.

Before Raven might actually blush (claiming that she has no idea why), she tells him "You'd best be going, then."

"Right," he turns to leave. "Bye."

After watching him leave, Raven turns back to the sunset, then continues her meditation.

"This afternoon went a lot quicker than I expected... (sigh) Better go get Star..."

After what seemed like around thirty minutes, Raven notices two figures moving down below. Obviously, they're Robin and Starfire, all dressed as civilians.

Robin didn't seem so loud in those thirty minutes; maybe just a little comment on this, and that--but no more singing or anything too weird. Raven actually found peace that time.

Though quite far from them, Raven could make out a high and excited voice. Starfire's, of course. "Friend Robin, why ride your motored bicycle if we can just fly our way to our destination?"

Raven couldn't make out Robin's answer to that but finds that Robin must not have wanted to fly as they both ride the R-cycle and disappear into the dark fog.

mooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

a while later...

"Finally! We're here!... Whoa.. This place looks way more high-ended than I expected.." Obviously, Raven can quite imagine their situation by listening on to Robin's thoughts. "So many... jewelry shops.. expensive watches... Ha! Perfect place for a robbery!"

He sounded quite excited that time...

"Hey, that must be it..."

Raven makes her way to the kitchen, planning to get herself some tea.

"...Is that the waiter?..." Raven passes by the now empty rooms. "...Oops. Guess he wasn't one.. He seems mad... ... Oh well..."

Now, in the titans' living room, Raven finds Cyborg and Beastboy playing with the gamestation.

"You're so gonna lose, Cy!"

"I never lose!"

"Yeah you--" A loud 'thud' could be heard from the stereos.

"IN YOUR FACE, GRASS STAIN!"

"YOU CHEATED!"

"That makes seven for me--and none for you!"

"CHEATED!"

"I don't need to cheat to beat you!"

"CHEATED!"

Raven continues on to the kitchen.

"Okay, so maybe I was wrong... this paper only says twenty dollars free... ... Oh well.. Since we're already here, might as well order some 'good' stuff... "

Raven notices a kettle of boiling water left on the stove. Now who would be dumb enough to leave boiling water here? Raven looks to her left, then to the right. Guess, I'll be taking some..

Taking a mug (instead of a teacup) from inside a cupboard, she fills it up with the hot water. Wait a second... She notices that it isn't water. Tea?

Suddenly, her hand touches something from behind the kettle. Let me guess. A note. Taking it out, she attempts to read what is written, failing miserably. The writing's is too unreadable, the paper being quite wet and all.

"Right! Our food should be ready in a while... I think..."

Still attempting to make out at least some of the words, she accidentally tears it.

Oops... She throws the wet pieces of paper away and picks up the mug. It's not my fault that it's wet...

Now carrying a mug, she passes through the two other titans who're still playing.

"YEAH! That's eight for me!"

"CHEATER!"

moooo

at around eight... or maybe it's already nine... Raven doesn't have a watch... Doesn't matter anyway.

Raven sits where she normally does on the roof, an empty mug stands just beside her. She quite enjoys the cool wind up there.

"The food was great!... Actually it's quite normal... 'cept it's expensive... ... I wonder how long it will take for Star to finish shopping... How can she shop here anyway? These are all.. way too expensive... I mean look at those bags--a hundred dollars for just one... Is a hundred dollars expensive for a bag?... Maybe it isn't... But there's so much more to do with that money... --Hey, what's that?..."

Raven continues siting by the edge of the roof, completely unafraid to fall.

"Cool. She might like this... Hehe and it's even cheaper than any of the others... And it's even her colors...--Hey, she's coming--Fine, I guess I'll buy it.."

Along with a small yawn, she turns the other way and just leans on the short wall by the edge of the roof. (A/N: Waaa! I'm running out of words! I dunno what to call it...sorry...)

It couldn't be too late, yet. But, with the peaceful environment and the calm breeze, how can you not feel like resting a bit? The only thing that could really disturb the peace is Robin's rambling on in his mind. And, without him doing so, --well--long live the peace.

Why am I sleeping here? Raven closes her eyes and makes herself comfortable on that spot. I'll just be resting... just for a bit...

moooooooo

"Finally! Home sweet home."

A blurred figure walks in the dim hallways, a small chain hangs out from his closed hand.

Reaching a door, he quietly opens it and is immediately greeted by the darkness..

"Wonder where Raven is.."

Huh?

The figure leaves the room and walks on through the corridor. Reaching a narrow stairway, he opens the door and meets a dark sky and a cool breeze that sweeps his face. And, far in the other end, another figure remains unconscious.

"Why's she still here? Raven?"

What?...

The man hurries over to the other figure and places the chained object on the low wall. He carries the figure and looks at the object. As he tries to reach for it, the other person in his arms falls off balance. Already touching the object, he notices this and holds the person again with both his arms. Doing so makes him accidentally push the object and it falls over the edge.

"Awww!" He watches the shine quickly disappear to the ground way below. "(sigh) Oh well..."

mooo

He slowly lets down the unconscious figure on the bed in the dark room; puts a blanket over her, and leaves..


Sorry.. I kinda feel like I didn't do so good with this chapter... dunno why...

I PROMISE I'LL TRY TO DO BETTER FOR THE NEXT ONE:)
