Hi guys! *Gasp* I updated in less than 6 months! I'm sorry for making you guys wait so long in between chapters. Hopefully I'll get to writing more over this next half of spring break and summer vacation. Again, thank you to all of my wonderful readers and especially my reviewers. Also, check out my profile for a poll and what my next story will be after I finish this one. I promise I will write most of it before I start publishing so that updates will be faster. On with the story!

Note: I'm looking for a beta reader if any of you are interested. I just reread the last chapter and almost every sentence had a mistake of some sort in it. Also, I might write more if I know that I have someone waiting. Anyway, if you're interested PM me. My inbox is always open!

Reviews are encouraged, constructive criticism is welcome, and flames are accepted. I can use them to bake cookies and brownies because cookies and brownies are amazing.

"..."-character talking

'...'-character thinking

I'm all alone

Isn't someone missing me?

"Now what makes you think that I want to let you go?" Joker asked, "What if I wanted to keep you here? Or what if you're only way out of here is being dead? You're making a very bold assumption little birdie."

"I've looked at your files Joker." Raven stated, thinking 'Thank you paranoid Robin.' "You wouldn't have shown these articles to me if you just wanted me dead." Raven bluffed, knowing that the Joker was a madman and he might have wanted to just mentally torture her before killing her.

"Maybe...or maybe not!" Joker said as he whipped around, with a gas mask on and a spray canister in his hand.

"Now why don't you calm down and take a deep breath" he remarked as a greenish gas filled the air.

Raven, caught by surprise, didn't have time to hold her breath before she slowly slipped into unconsciousness.

When she woke up, she saw that she was in a small stone cell. Her feet and hands were bound by metal shackles. Nearby was a small bowl of water. She looked at it disgustedly, wondering if he wanted her to lap it up like a dog.

Her mind wandered to the articles that the Joker showed her. 'Have they given up searching for me? Do they really think I'm dead? Or do they...not care?' At this thought she paused. 'No,' she thought, 'Beast Boy said he loved someone else! He said it was too late to tell her! He had to have meant me...right?' Her frantic thoughts were stopped by that one little question. Just one word.

Composing herself, she took a deep breath. 'I have to trust that the Titans will come find me. Oh, like the trust you had in them before they started shutting you out for her.' Her mind said, turning on itself. 'Face it, no one is coming to get you out. You'll have to come up with an escape plan and get out of here, alone.'

She started coming up with different escape plans while a single thought repeated itself over and over in the back of her mind. 'Is all this really worth it if no one seems to care that I'm gone?'

Review time!

guest 1: Thank you for the constructive criticism! I'll try to be more descriptive and less talky. Remember, everyone, more constructive criticism equals better story!

Invisible Dxrness: Thank you so much! Here is the next chapter and I hope that it's as good as you think the rest of this story is!
