A/N: Yay! We finally get to see what happens to Kale! Well… you do. Me… well, I already knew.

Disclaimer: I don't own Teen Titans. That was really hard to type since my middle finger is bandaged up.

"Cyborg," Cyborg moaned and turned about in his sleep, clinging at the last vestiges of the dream.

He had been at a picnic in the park with all of his friends. Beast Boy had sucked mustard up his nose. He and Kale had snuck behind…

Kale!

Cyborg sat up fast, cracking his back. He ignored the pain that the uncomfortable sound was sure to produce. Raven was at his bedside.

"Kale's heartbeat and respiration are speeding up; she'll be awake in a few seconds," Raven said simply before exiting the room.

"Cyborg?"

Cyborg's head whipped around quickly when he heard the small voice. Kale was sitting up in bed, looking nervous. Her cheeks had pinkened a bit since he'd last seen her (though it could have been the fading colors of the day), but she still looked a bit ill. Her hands were clutching the white sheets tightly.

There was an uncomfortable silence. Cyborg cleared his throat and began to say, "Are—"

"Cyborg, why couldn't I remember you?" Kale interrupted, looking very distraught.

Cyborg hesitated a moment before reporting, "As far as we can see, there is nothing wrong with your head and there's nothing wrong with your organs." Cyborg stopped, hesitant to bring up the topic. "It seems that you have these powers…"

Kale nodded, "I couldn't remember it when I first woke up; I couldn't remember a lot of things. Then you said your name and everything came back," she glanced at him, smiling wryly, "do you know weird it feels to relive years of your memory in a few hours?"

Cyborg did not want to push the subject, but he knew that if he did not ask, he would not be able to later. "Is it possible that two years ago, you used these powers and lost your memory then too?"

Kale blinked before she said slowly, "Anything's possible. Two years ago, I woke in Ithaca with no memories. A woman saying something jogged waking up on the cliff, but not much else. From Ithaca, I came here. Now I'm waking up without memories again." Fear entered her eyes, "Cyborg, what if this keeps happening? I don't want to loose everything!"

Cyborg instinctually went to his girlfriend's side, noticing the signs of tears right away. They sat on the bed for only a little while before Kale's sobs had subsided. She brushed away the tears and sat up straight, smiling crookedly.

"Well, crying's not going to help anything, is it?" she said in her business-like way that told Cyborg she did not want to talk about it right now. "We'll do what we can and move on." She clapped her hands on her thighs and looked up determinedly. "Okay! You've got an extra set of my clothes, right?" She swung her legs out of the bed, as lively as ever.

She left the room without a word, leaving Cyborg slightly befuddled. He followed her into the hall and noticed that she took a side hall to get to the bedroom section of the Tower, avoiding the living room, where everyone was most likely waiting to hear the news.

Cyborg followed her to his room, where she pulled out a set of clothes she kept at the Tower just in case she fell asleep there or for an occasion such as this. She began tugging at the hem of her shirt before noticing Cyborg. She chased him out of his own room, yelling, "Out!" the whole way.

Cyborg huffed and leaned against the wall. A few minutes later, Kale appeared again. She was wearing jeans and a sleeveless crimson button-up shirt (top two buttons undone). Her hair was tied up and she was smiling. She looked a bit healthier.

"Let's go. I need a pizza," Kale said impatiently before starting towards the living room.

Behind her, Cyborg smiled. Some things never changed. They walked out to the living room, where Kale was immediately hugged by Starfire and Beast Boy. She called out in protest, which only succeeded in getting her hugged tighter.

Cyborg smiled at her loud protests and surveyed the room for his other friends. Raven was not there (not that he suspected her to be). Robin was sitting at the table. Cyborg's smile shrunk minutely when he saw someone with bandages wrapped around their on the couch. He silently summoned Robin over to him.

"What's Aqualad still doing here?" he whispered.

"He said he needed to talk to Kale," Robin replied.

"Has he been waiting since yesterday?"

Robin nodded. "Yeah. He slept on the couch and said he already contacted Bee about it."

"Hey dudes," both men jumped. They had not heard Kale come over. "Aqualad's still here. What's up?"

Robin glanced at Cyborg, indicating for him to tell her. Cyborg said, "He said he needed to talk to you."

Cyborg looked at Kale, looking for an answer as to why Aqualad would need to speak to her. She shrugged. Cyborg and the others kept their distance as Kale approached Aqualad.



Kale approached Aqualad. He was staring out the window as the waves almost longingly. When she was next to him, or rather the coffee table that was right in front of her, she waited for him to speak. He continued to stare out at the horizon.

"Aqualad?" she whispered, reaching out to touch his shoulder.

His attention seemed to smack back into focus. He blinked, as if he had been sleeping, and his eyes focused on Kale. She smiled at him, sitting down next to the man on the couch. The moment her bottom touched the couch, however, Aqualad plopped himself down on the floor next to her. She frowned and did likewise. Aqualad's expression became nervous, and he moved to bow his head. Kale frowned, a line appearing in her stubborn brow.

"Dude, what are you doing?"

Aqualad was surprised, she could tell, but he hid it well. "I am merely remembering my place, your Grace."

Kale cocked her head, "Your Grace?" she repeated frankly. "Okay, I'll go along with it. Why are you calling me Grace?"

Aqualad's surprise grew, "Lady Aster, do you not remember the Zephyrian Courts?"



As Cyborg watched Kale and Aqualad, he felt as if something was not right. They shuffled about for a few moments and finally got to talking. Dark looks crossed Kale's face as Aqualad spoke. Finally, Aqualad said something that caused Kale to freeze.

Cyborg was running before he knew what he was doing. He hurtled over the couch and caught Kale before she hit the ground. She was shaking and her eyes were rolling back into her head. A moment later, he was roughly pushed aside by Raven.

"Move the table and don't touch her; she's having a seizure."

As the team hurried to do her bidding, Cyborg lifted Aqualad by his shirt. "What did you do?" he asked angrily.

Before Aqualad could answer, Raven said loudly, "Cyborg!"

Cyborg turned his attention to her, his mind racing. Raven looked at him dispassionately, refusing to speak until her calmed down. He slowly lowered Aqualad to the floor. Finally, Raven spoke.

"She's remembering."
