"Alright. Everyone here?"Cyborg said commanding attention. Looking at everyone on the team.

You, Raven, Damian, Jaime, and Gar. Dressed and ready. Starfire stood next to Cy by the controls."Guess we're all here."Gar tells him.

"Good."Cy smirks."Listen up, I managed to improve the simulator for your training. The holograms have been collaborated to be more efficient then before. The A.I. will study your moves and constantly change to evolve. In stead of just fighting holograms, the whole area has been modified to change the surroundings and terrain to a setting most fitting through searching your neurological functions to pick what is consider best for your powers. While also for your weakness."

Gar raises his hand. Cy gestures for him to speak."So, just what you saying?"

Damian couldn't help but smirk to himself at Gar's stupidity in his mind. About to school and make him look a bigger idiot, you explain it to him."What Victor means is that, our new simulator has been greatly improved. Think of it like a video game, how each level becomes harder. That's what he's saying. It will change according to our powers in a both a good way and not so good way. Our surroundings can change. Say to a jungle for you, where we must get through. Fight our way through. Any villain can really be our enemy. They are nearly realistic in a sense."You look to Cyborg hoping what you said was right.

He smiles amazed and surprised."Very good. Yeah, that's pretty much it. I've incorporated the tech from myself to be apart of your system. This baby is the highest. Anyway, why don't we give it a test drive. Who wants to go first?"

Everyone looks at the other rather weary and unsure. No one was ready to step up first, so Starfire picked."...Jaime, you can go first."she volunteers him.

Much to his dismay, but he obliges and suits up completely stepping to the center. Cyborg gets the new program up and running. Next thing the whole room transformed into the city. Buildings, skies, everything. Everyone was impressed.

"Whoa."Jaime said looking around, making sure his mind still remembered he was still at the tower."Hello?"

"Don't worry."Cy speaks to him over the speaker."You're still here. Ready?"

Before Jaime could even respond, out of nowhere wave of robotic creatures, shooting lasers."HEY! I wasn't ready!"Jaime draws his blaster and begins firing and fighting back. Becoming swarmed he takes to the sky. Focusing solely on the attack before him, left him open from the back.

All eyes watch him get hit by a powerful blast sending him crashing through a building. Cyborg wasn't kidding about the improvements he did. These holograms clearly acted like as the adversary. Having no mercy or qualm. Down to their powers, especially with Atomic Skull. Who fires another blast at Jaime. Who managed to narrowly move just in time, forming a shield. From the controls Starfire and Cyborg watch the teen.

"Think quickly."Starfire instructs him."You must think quickly, Jaime."

"Dude, he's so getting beaten."Gar said, watching Jaime be knocked back into the ground. Making Gar flinch."Ouch."

Atomic Skull stands over Jaime hand out about to blast him, when the simulator ends."..."Jaime falls back exhausted and worn out."That was loco! Seriously!? I thought I was going to die!"He said struggling to pick himself up."I think my bruises have bruises."

"Here."you go and help him. He takes your hand as he stands up.

"Thanks."he thanks you. Rubbing his shoulder."Those are suppose to be holograms."He scuffs walking off to allow the next person to go. Starfire calls for Raven.

All eyes fall to her, Cyborgs sets her up in the slums of ruins. The sun was setting, it was sort of an eerie setting. Without a word, Cy sends her the same wave he did for Jaime. She manages to remain calm and destroy quite a few, her adversary was Dr. Light. Who didn't let up. Raven remained calm through it all, that it was hard to see she was sort of struggling. You watch amazed at the amount of control she had over herself and powers. It was just awe inspiring. That you couldn't help but feel proud yet insecure. Not a single ounce of the demon side came out. This was what control was.

Your eyes watch and study her. Her fight with Dr. Light soon came to an end, with her narrowly being victorious. Cy was impressed and proud. The fight was good and taxing, though Raven did her best not to show it. Looking to you, seeing the pride made her smile to herself. You get ready to go and congratulate her, when your name was called.

Up next, Gar cheers for you the loudest. You didn't want to go next, you actually wanted to go last or second to last. How could you top that? What Raven just did, nervous, you remember what Raven said. Swallowing your fear and step forward. Hearing your heart racing, that you barely heard Cyborg tell you to get ready. Calming your breathing, in a flash your surroundings changed to sort of a London Fog area. The place was dark and gray. By the docks, you could hear the boats and waves. Even the seagulls. Not to mention the actually chill of the place. Even Big Ben's dong. Slowly and carefully, you start walking. Looking around, keeping yourself in-check. Reminding yourself to do. While at the same time getting yourself ready. Your mind begin to try and see what sort of approach you should take when the enemy came. Combat? Powers? Both? Yeah, both sounded good.

Eyes still looking, seeing nothing in this dense fog. Not a single sound. You stop for a second to look in the grey water at your reflection when something caught your eye. It ran. Quickly you purse it, running at first. Until it something else went by you and you changed to your wings. This had to be your enemy. Who would you get?

Landing in the deserted streets, no one around. Everything from the shops to the corners. Empty. Wings disappear, slowly you walk keeping your guard up. When you hear a strange yet familiar noise. It sounded like something from a musical box. The sound and melody...where did you know it from? Walking in the direction of it, as if in a trance. Slowly you begin to hum it, knowing it all of sudden. Yet your memories couldn't find any images. Closing your eyes slowly becoming submerged by it entanglement of sound. Your soul felt all of sudden light and free. Separating itself. This sound called out to you. So gentle. So calming. So safe. Warm.

"My child."

A soothing and loving voice speaks to you. Making you stop suddenly and look at the form before you slowly take form of female. You couldn't make them out, but you could feel their presence. It was both familiar and right. Yet at the same time confusing and lost. Their hand reaches out and gently brushes the side of your cheek. Their sudden touch, brought forth a memory you kept buried.

Hell. The flames of Hell surrounded you, you in your corrupted form. Trigon behind you, you embracing your side with glee and satisfaction. Bodies before you. Bodies of so many, bodies of everyone...everyone you loved. Bloody and defeated. Death in their eyes. Piled upon the other. Horrified and terrorized by this before you. You panic and flip out.

Crying."No! No!"you plead, turning tail and run. To be followed by this haunting scene. There was no way out. Not even shutting your eyes blocked it out. The images came flooding in, crashing on you like a heavy storm."Stay back! Stay back!"You lash out, shooting a blast of Hell Fire, but it did nothing."I don't want to be there anymore! That's not me! That's not me!"

Your wings form and you shoot up, blasting a hole to get out of the underworld. The creatures and everything follows in hot pursuit. Noticing them, you fire back. Unleashing your power, yelling for them to stay back. While trying to get out of this Hellish place. Reaching for the voice calling for you.

"These are you SINS! These are SINS!"your mind kept playing over and over again."Repent. Repent!"

A large creature comes out of nowhere and nearly tackles you, you mange to dodge just in time. While blasting it from behind. Sending it down. The rest where enclosing around you, even Trigon. His hand reaching out for you, an evil smirk upon his face. Fear shot through you. Struggling to keep it down, feeling yourself beginning to burning. Again. The pain. Pain, all the pain. You felt it. More than ever now. You didn't want this. Not this, not all that you have fought for. This was not what you wanted. This had to stop, you had to make this stop. A voice inside you told you so, you could make this all stop.

Giving into the voice, raising your hands above your head. Something else took over, words came out of your mouth you didn't quite understand or know. All you knew, you weren't in control. This was nothing Raven told you. Next thing you knew everything went white and you couldn't see anything. No one was there. No voices from the others. Your voice didn't work. Calling for them did nothing.

Unable to see them, left you blind and scared. Feeling out in front of you, finding nothing. But emptiness. Gripping for something solid. Finding air. All around you. What was happening?! Where were you?! Why couldn't you find anyone!? Yes, you escaped that place. But...But...

Not understanding what was happening right now. Trying to run somewhere, when you couldn't. Your legs had nothing to run on. Floating aimlessly in nothing but the white abyss. Being taking any direction. Everything felt light and free. No more pain. Suffering. No more sins. No more darkness. Just white darkness.

Desperate to find a way out, feeling a unfamiliar presence. It was small, trying to remain hidden and concealed. But you felt it, at least you did. Looking around still not seeing, feeling for it. Stopping and look in one area for a couple of seconds. Opening your mouth to speak, no words again came out.

Screaming your mind to be released. To be found. Slowly you begin to curl up in the fetal position. Bottling everything up, a hand enters and grabs hold of you. Bring you back, your eyes open. All the white vanished, vision came back. Feeling. All your senses came. Feeling gentle breeze upon your skin, made you smile weakly. Tiredly looking to the sun, reaching for the light, your body some how felt heavy and taxed, all your energy gone you black out. Falling out of the sky.

"VIOLET!"Starfire and the others scream. Watching as you limp body plummets to down below.

They scream for you to wake up, but you didn't. Raven waste no time and hurries after you with Starfire and the others who could fly. Speeding up, Raven hurries to catch her sister. While trying to figure out was what was wrong and what just happened. Just a few minutes ago, you like the rest where set up in the simulator to train. When all of sudden, it was like something possessed her. Raven sensed it too late. Whatever it was managed to get hold of Violet. This presence she didn't sense until they made themselves known. Took over Violet, causing her sister to unleash her demonic side without her triggering it. Attacking them all for unknown reasons. But, that wasn't what shocked and surprised them. What Violet did next did, what she conjured, nearly. Astound the dark teen. Was this apart of her sister's other half? It almost seem nearly identical to that of the magic used by her people back on Azrath. Yet, there was something different. It was strange mix of dark and malevolence with purity and life.

And that strange light that emitted from her younger sister. Hurt her, it hurt Raven. Her sister possessed by this strange presence nearly untapped it, nearly consumed Violet. It seem they only wanted to see, what Violet could do. Was that their reasoning for burying her sister's presence inside her own body and mind? Her soul nearly lost. Luckily that did not happen.

"Gotcha!"Starfire managed to catch her falling sister before she hit the water and would be lost forever.

Flying the unconscious teen back to the top of the tower, where Damian waited by the gaping hole you had produced after blasting a hole through several floors. To escape. He too was puzzled and caught off guard by your sudden attack upon the team. He thought like the others, you where getting your new powers under control. Hearing you scream and yell about sins. Over and over again, like a crazed patient from Arkham. He saw the struggle of pain and agony all on you. Your flames went out of control, like wildfire. Something wasn't right. He knew it. Turning back to the hole quickly, studying it for a second to turn back once Starfire and the others came back. He hurries over to you, to beat by Gar turning back into his normal from a bird.

"Is she okay?"Gar asked worried, taking the words from Damian. Who did not at all appreciate it.

He nearly crowded around, for Jaime to pull Gar back."Give her some air. How is she?"he asked Starfire.

Raven hurries over to you, putting a hand upon your forehead. Everyone waits to hear what she found."...She's fine."she tells them, relieved herself."Her body is just...tired."

Starfire sighs relieved to hear."Good. Let's take her to the infirmary just to be sure."

Reaching the infirmary, Starfire lays you down and with Cyborg's help gets you hooked up. All your vitals where fine, from the test Cy preformed a few times. Starfire knowing it was right, went to inform Dick. As Cy worked on you, the others where still at lost on what happened. While Gar was more concerned about you.

"Hey, Raven."Jaime looks to her."What the heck happened? How did her powers go loco like that?"

"I thought you said she was coming around with her powers?"Damian interrogates more so than questions.

Raven remains silent before responding."...I honestly don't know."Surprising them."All I know is that, something came. Some sort of strange presenc-"

"Trigon?"Jaime asked.

"No."Raven tells him."It's not. He can't get out."she quickly looks up at her jewel."Whatever it was, was waiting. They clearly know who my sister is. Their presence felt some what similar to those from Azarth."

"But, you said your whole home was gone."Gar joins them."So how can it be?"

"I don't know."was all Raven could say. Becoming frustrated herself she didn't have the answer either."If I knew, I could tell you."She looks at her sister laying unconscious."...Something is causing her turmoil inside."Turning around she leaves.

"Where are you going?"Jaime calls after.

She stops about to answer, but chooses not to and forms a portal walking in and leaves."Something doesn't feel right."Gar said worried."I can feel it. Some sort of strange coldness. Hey? Where are you going?"He sees Damian leave too."Aren't you going to stay?"

"Clearly, there is nothing we can do."Damian said."Cyborg has this, I'm going to go and do something more stimulating."Without another word he leaves.

"Seriously?!"Gar growls lowly."Doesn't he care? You know what, fine whatever. I'll stay until she wakes."He hollers down the hall as Damian turns the corner.

In anger Damian punches the wall, nearly denting it from Gar's words. Taking his fist back, ignoring the pain he refocuses himself and goes back to the scene of the incident. Back to the training room. Which was nearly charred. Using his detective skills, he carefully eyes everything. Replaying what happened in his mind. From the start of the day.

It was a like pretty much any normal day, everyone woke up and headed down for breakfast. Which like always Violet made or had ready. Today's breakfast omelets with fruit salad, toast, french toast and juice. Spread out for them to get. Damian remembered, everyone was there. Gar getting the most, turning into a animal to eat. Everyone was getting their plate, except one.

You.

He noticed the distant look you had. At first he didn't pay much attention to it at first. Until you excused yourself from breakfast, leaving quickly and quietly. He still did nothing. Preferring to keep his distance. Like he'd been doing for some time. Ever since you came back from Hell. He finished his food and went back to his room to clean up. Change from his nightwear. His mind focused on something else, that he didn't see the other, until he collided with them. Assuming it to be Gar, he got ready to say a crude remark. Finding it to be instead. Rubbing your temple, apologizing stopping realizing it was him. The two of you stared at the other, in silence. It was there he saw in your eyes something wasn't right.

But you adverted your eyes so fast from him, he couldn't get a chance to ask. Quickly you gather everything, apologizing to him. Nearly stumbling with what your things. He was about to help, when you screamed for him not to. It was unlike you. Well to say the least. Watching you pick yourself up and sprint away, out of reflex he was about to grab your wrist. But hesitates. For some unknown reason. His eyes watch you hurry off down the hall.

Reaching his room, gathering his casual clothes. Black turtle neck, with black pants and shoes. Simple and easy. Refined and collected. He makes his way to the showers, cleaning himself. His mind continued to remain on you. Yet, he did his best to block it out. Ending his shower short. Coming out dressed and clean. He stops for a second, looking in the direction towards your room. He felt something, he couldn't explain coming from that direction.

"It's not my concern."he tells himself and goes back to his room.

Throwing his clothes in his hamper and his towel on his bed. He walks over to his desk and opens the top drawer taking out the lace tie for your hair he had taken when he first met you. He lays it down on the table, looking at it. For it to be interrupted by a knock upon his door. Quickly he puts it away and goes to answer.

Finding you there. This was a surprise, because you hadn't come by his room since that day."Yes."he said, from all the other responses he wanted to use.

"I just wanted to tell you, we're having practice a bit earlier today."you tell him."I'm not sure if you knew. Starfire told me."

"Ah. Yes, well thank you."

Silence again between you both. Your eyes fidget a bit."Alright then. Be there by 11:30."

With that you turn and leave."...Violet."He calls to you, finding you had left.

With a few hours to spend before practice, he had something more important to do. Turning on his laptop, he gets to work. Time went by rather fast, and before he knew it was 11:20. Nearing the time, he changes into his Robin persona. And makes it to the training room with five minutes to spare. The first like always, hearing laughter, coming from you. He turns seeing you walking with Raven and Gar, whom the latter was causing you laugh. Much to his disdain.

Cyborg tells them about their new simulator with you further explaining it. Jaime went, then Raven and finally you. He watched you carefully, noticing the way you looked at Raven when she preformed. The awe sensation and admiration you had. While your insecurity rose. He was going to say something to you, but you had been called. It was then he noticed the way your eyes quickly shifted. Like you saw something.

Right there, something was wrong. Running two fingers on the ground, looking at the residue. Smelling the burnt. Wiping his fingers. He stares up at the hole that lead all the way up, his eyes notice something. Nearly hidden. Looking around for something to use, remembering his grappling hook, he shoots up and pulls himself up. To where he spotted his first clue. Using tweezers, he pulls out a what looked like a bit a of fiber. He could be wrong. Tucking away it away, he looks for anything else. When something gentle brushes upon his cheek. He looks finding nothing, though looking down he finds a small white bird's feather. Dropping down, he picks up the dove's feather. Looking at it, as eyes from afar watch you.
