Present day- Raven

Street lamps keep bursting when I walk by them, it just reminds me of how out of control my emotions are at the moment. My hands shake which is how I know if I try to teleport I could land somewhere I shouldn't. I don't even know where to go. I won't go back to Aruba. I won't go back to the manor I am back to square one. Being alone and needing somewhere to go...and needing a fucking drink. I have to remind myself not to drink. I fish my chip out of my pocket turning it around in my hand. Reminding me not to give in and have a drink. Azar is it hard not to. A single tear drips down my cheek as I keep walking another street lamp exploding glass falling around me.

I knew something was wrong. I knew something would have happened with her. I need to find a way to control my powers but for now I can't use them, I can't risk hurting someone or hurting the city and knowing me...I could. I wish I had a jacket on it's not cold but it's something to hold onto other than my bag and myself.

"What a shame" a voice says, I stop in my tracks turning around to the voice. The fucking blonde, she looks different her hair down cascading around her shoulders. She's wearing a leather catsuit giving off vibes I don't like. She walks towards me confidentially and slowly.

"Don't talk to me" I demand walking the opposite direction.

"You know I didn't think it would be easy to seduce him. I expected maybe a little fight back." She says, I suck in a breath as another streetlamp bursts. I pause in my steps as I look to the light and then back at the girl but she isn't there. I turn back around trying to leave when I am tripped, I fall on the ground hard my head making a sickening thunk on the asphalt. A laugh sounds off around me but I still don't see anyone.

"You can have him" I growl getting to my feet. I am knocked back down by someone in a cat mask, a weird cat mask. The person who I am thinking might be female gets on top of me holding me down with her knees. She plays with a knife in her hands, I shoot my hand up connecting a punch to her mask knocking her off of me. I scramble to my feet getting into a fighting position. I don't trust my powers right now not to make things worse. Someone grabs me from behind holding my arms down in a bear hug. I fight against them but they seem strong. I get a glimpse of their colors, yellow and red.

The movie theater girl...whatever her name is approaches me a sneer on her mouth. The girl in the cat mask walks behind her the knife she played with at her side. Movie girl holds her hand out the cat girl sliding the knife into her hand. She grins as she approaches me, I fight against the aggressive grip of whoever is holding me. I kick my feet out landing it into Movie girls chest whoever was holding me throws me down hard onto the floor before I can comprehend it happened. They move too fast for me to see. Their hand entangles in my hair turning me back while I am still on the ground.

"Get off me" I growl I need to get out of here. Before I have time to make another plan the movie girl is back this time so hesitation as she jabs the knife into me, I suck in a breath which gets caught as the pain of it catches up to me. She pulls the knife out and I can see my blood on the blade. She hands it back to the cat who stabs me again twisting the knife around, I want to scream but it's caught in my throat and the man holding me covers my mouth with his hand. I am shaking from the pain and I feel dizzy. The man releases my mouth.

"We just can't have you be a problem for us" Movie girl says throwing a solid punch, it hits me straight on splitting my lip, I taste blood. She throws another landing in the stab wound which I can feel leaks more sticky blood. The man releases me pushing me back onto the floor I groan turning over on my back. "Again?"

The cat lady stands over me a halo of light surrounding her. I need to get out of here, I try to focus on the light hoping to pop it give me enough darkness to teleport out of here. She brings the knife up once more slamming it down into me, I let out a pain filled squeak. It takes all of me but I kick up launching her away from me, I put my hand up aiming at the light, dark energy leaves me popping the light as I allow myself to squeeze out of existence. I don't know where I will end up. I feel air conditioner as I pop back in and fall to the ground. I hear scattered footsteps and feel someone grab my shoulders. I can't tell who is talking to me because everything sounds like it is underwater. I can't even open my eyes anymore everything is dark.

Present day- Garfield

I felt just ready enough to go to bed when it happened, I don't know how she got here or what happened before all I know is right in the middle of the living room of Tower Raven teleported and falls to the ground. Cyborg and I all jumped to action going to her side trying to ask her what happened and how she got here, she doesn't seem to be able to hear us but the blood falling out of her body tells us now isn't the time for questions. Cyborg lifts her rushing her to the infirmary

As we set her on the table her eyes shoot open and grip my arm tightly

"Don't let them find me" She says, she sounds afraid but we don't know who she is talking about. Let who know? Last we heard she wasn't even in America anymore. Cyborg looks to me worried as she crashes the heart monitor sounding off an eerie sound.

"Fuck fuck fuck" Cyborg whispers grabbing piles of gauze and handing them to me, I shove them on top of where I think the bleeding is coming from. "Stand back I need to bring her back"

I do as I am told as Cyborg charges up his hands like a defibrillator he presses his hands onto different parts of her chest as it goes off her chest lunges. I grab my head in a mild panic. The beeping comes back giving us time to work.

"How is she not healing herself?" I ask

"You think I am an expert on her powers dude?" Cyborg replies as we both frantically stop the bleeding. "Who the hell stabbed her three times?"

We don't talk anymore as we both work on her, it feels like a relief when we finally stop the bleeding an hour later. Cyborg directs me to get more blood from the supply the O neg we need for everyone. In the past it has only helped her a little bit and she needs to heal herself the rest of the way. Something about her demon half which doesn't make sense to me. As the blood drip starts both of us take a step away from the table.

"Should we call Dick?" Cyborg asks I shake my head.

"No I don't think so...we don't know for sure she wasn't talking about not telling them she was here. I don't want to make things worse." I reply he nods as we both leave the room mostly to wash the blood off our hands. I don't want to see Rae like this, she's too young to understand but doesn't mean she won't remember.

"Who was that?" Jamie asks as I walk out into the hallway.

"Old Titan...Raven" I answer he nods looking through the med bay window.

"Why did she come here?" He asks I shrug

"I don't know but we will know more when she wakes up" I say...whenever that is.

Her healing can take days sometimes. We never know how long it'll be either. How much blood she has to restore. I wash my hands in the kitchen sink, watching it run down the drain. I didn't expect this to happen tonight I didn't expect to ever see her again if I am being honest. She made it pretty clear she never wanted to be close to any of us again and I don't blame her for it one bit. Cyborg leans against the counter his hands now clean.

"I don't want her to panic when she wakes up so I am going to camp out in the Med." He says, I nod

"I would but Rae hasn't been sleeping well and I gotta make sure I can hear her if she wakes up" I say he nods without saying anything else. Both of us are still in shock in looks like. We stand there for maybe twenty minutes both of us trying to wrap our heads around it.

"I didn't even know she was in the states again" Cyborg says breaking the silence

"I wonder if she is still with Jason...if she is he should know at least" I say Cyborg shakes his head

"We don't tell anyone until she's awake and can tell us herself who she is hiding from" Cyborg replies, I nod it's a good idea. Jason has had his run ins with being violent for what seems like no reason. We shouldn't assume he isn't behind this.

Next morning- Jason

I don't know when I woke up but I know I have been laying here for hours trying to wrap my mind around Raven leaving. How are we going to stop Witch boy without her? How am I going to sleep without her? The longer I think about the night before the more angry I get. Not at Tim, not at Tess or Raven. At myself. Why didn't I stop myself? Why did I talk to her like I didn't understand what she was going through? I turn over on my side trying to push all the negative thoughts away from me. I get a knock on my door which makes me want to hide away even more, I don't even know who it is.

"Jason" Tim's voice comes through the door, I roll my eyes hard. "Jason something happened we need you out here"

I get out of bed moving to the door and opening it. Tim doesn't look at me, just passed me. He waves for me to follow him and I do walking into a circle of Bruce, Dick, Damian, Kori, and now Tim and I. I crease my brow. They look serious. Kori has hand on Dick and is trying to comfort him, Damian has his face in his hands and is trying to sit on the floor.

"What's going on?" I ask Dick shakes his head scowling and handing something to Tim. Tim holds it in his hand and nervously turns to me.

"Umm...this sounds weird but...is this Raven's?" He asks holding out his hand, I look down at it. A 3 month sober chip rests in his hand I nod picking it up.

"Yeah...yeah she never got another one to mark her progress" I say Dick nods throwing a punch at the wall he turns to me.

"This is your fucking fault. Why did you have to be such a shitty fucking person?" He spits, Kori rests a hand on his shoulder holding him back from hitting me this time.

"What's my fault?" I ask confused. No one seemed this worried or angry last night, how the fuck are they now all against me. Bruce stands in front of me putting a hand on my shoulder.

"We don't know what happened yet, we don't know where she is or if she is even still alive." Bruce says, I stand back even more confused.

"can you all stop being weird and tell me what the fuck is going on?" I ask, Bruce swallows hard and looks to me I can tell in his eyes there is something deeply wrong.

"On Dick's morning jog he found that chip on the street. A lot of blood was found near it and we don't know what happened. We only thought it could be Raven from the amount of Broken street lamps that were around the area and that just stop where the blood was found." Bruce explains, my heart drops into my stomach

Is he telling me that Raven is dead? Or hurt? Or missing? I don't understand what he is telling me but at the same time I do. I race to my phone dialing Raven's number, it rings all the way through reaching her voicemail. I let out a frustrated groan tossing the phone back on my bed. Someone puts a hand on my shoulder but I don't turn around. I don't want to see who it is because I know it's not Raven. Please don't be fucking dead. Please don't let the last thing I said to her be me asking her not to leave. After I was utterly rude to her.

I feel more aching and twisting in my stomach but most of all I can feel the pit rising up again, I feel angry. Who did this? Who waited for her to be alone and come out of the house to do this? Someone had to, the one time she goes off on her own not even a block away from the house and she gets attacked? That's not right something is wrong here.

"If her body wasn't there then she probably survived" Tim says, I turn around as he releases my shoulder.

"How do we know that? What if they took her?" I ask he nods

"I don't think Raven would let that happen. She isn't powerless she probably found a way out of it" He replies, I know he's right but it doesn't stop the influx of worry I have. I feel like I might actually be sick. "I am sure everything will be okay. For now let's figure out who did it"

I don't answer in words but I nod and allow Tim to lead me to the Batcave, everyone else has already migrated down there. Dick still sends me glares from across the room as Kori has to keep him back and away from my side. I wonder if she knows this reaction is more emotion based than she thinks it is.

"Whoever did this had to wait until she was by herself, but why and who?" Tim asks sitting down on the computer chair and booting up the computer monitors.

"She's powerful alone or with company so I don't know" Dick grumbles now leaning against the wall. Kori has a hand on him which I doubt is just for physical attention, she's probably holding him there. She was always stronger than most people.

"Witch Boy?" Damian asks he seems to be struggling in some way, his arms are crossed but more in a way to protect himself, he shakes every now and then and he can't hold eye contact...he knows something.

"Damian what do you know?" I ask everyone turns to me and then looks at Damian he looks back at me with a slightly shocked but yet concerned face.

"I didn't know if it was actually happening or if I imagined it" He speaks up this gets all of our attention. I arch an eyebrow at him which is all I need to do to get him to spill "Look after my run in with Witch Boy I've been seeing things! I wasn't sure if I should tell anyone because I didn't want to be suspended!"

"What did you see?" Bruce asks

"I was up on the house, it's the best way I get some peace, I watched her leave I was hearing you guys argue. I thought I was seeing things because three people came out of no where...like just appeared and then were surrounding her." He answers

I force an exhale trying not to lose my patience. Even dick is trying not to lose his patience with him, trying to push himself off the wall but Kori doesn't budge. Not that I blame her, things are hard enough without his emotions making him Super Dick. Damian sits down on the floor again, at least now it makes sense why he reacted that way in the foyer, he had seen what happened and didn't help or do anything to change when we found out. He just thought it was all another wonky vision.

"I thought I saw someone with Flash colors, but they were inverted. Then some weird lady with a mask on too far to tell what was on it and then some blonde in a black body suit. I thought I was really seeing things because Raven didn't use her powers...at all until she had to get away." Damian says

"She doesn't use her powers when she's emotionally fucked up, she doesn't want to run the risk of hurting someone" Dick says, I look up to see his eyes trained on me still, pressed into a glare.

"What did they do to her?" Tim asks, his voice shaky

"I couldn't see really well but it looked like they stabbed her a couple times" Damian says his voice also wavering

"A couple times?!" Tim squeaked Damian nods. I fight the urge to punch something even though that's what I want to do the most. I want to punch someone, I want to fight my way to find her but I know that won't help right now. Nothing will until I know where she is.

"Raven can heal herself, she will know what to do for herself, right now we need to figure out who was behind this and how they knew to draw her out here at the perfect time" Dick says, for once he has said something I agree with this whole time.

We all get to work, Tim looking through neighbors security footage, Damian trying to draw the guys from memory and Dick...well being Dick and looking over everyone's shoulders. Me right now, trying to brain storm and remember every thing that has happened since Raven and I got here to see if any answers are obvious. It looks like this is going to be a busy day, it's going to take forever for us to figure out who did this. I just hope that Dick is right and that she's okay.
