Chapter 6: Home
"Mommy do you like your hair?"
Farah was currently standing on a chair behind her mother brushing her shoulder length fake black hair, while Raven put a small dusting of makeup on her fake fair skinned face.
Raven eyed her daughter from the mirror. "Of course. Why?"
Farah shrugged. "I dunno. Sometimes it feels . . . wrong. Like it doesn't belong to you." She continued brushing quietly humming to herself. Raven wasn't to surprised by this, Farah had made comments like that before, and not just about her appearance, but their lives in general, like something was amiss or something. True Farah was smart for her age, but Raven felt there was something more to it. Maybe Farah was a latent empath?
Raven finished her make up, which consisted of a light dusting of purple eye shadow and light purple lipstick. Lately she had been missing her purple eye color, a longing that had gotten worse when her daughter expressed her insecurities about her eyes and ears. Maybe she'd reveal her true self to Farah at the tower but for now shed stick to the lie. Great way to raise a child by the way. Once she had gotten into a black knee length dress, and a modest pair of black heels she stood before her blonde judge.
"How do I look?"
Farah shrugged. "Eh."
Raven may have been hurt if it wasn't for the mischievous gleam in her daughters eyes.
"Eh?" She repeated. She grabbed Farah by sides and tossed her onto the bed. "I'll show you 'eh'!" Raven began pinching her daughters sides and nibbling on her tummy causing her to shriek and flail with laughter. If Raven was to do something like this four even five years ago her powers probably would have ripped apart her home and anyone near her, but once again her child balanced her out, allowing her the freedom to feel and love.
A loud knocking from the door caused Raven to stop her assualt on her child, letting Farah scramble off the bed towards the door, Raven right behind her. She opened the door for her downstairs neighbor, an elderly women who loved kids, and adored Farah. She was a sweet old lady who babysat for free just to be around children.
After the babysitter was settled, her date knocked on her door a few minutes later. He was dressed in a black button up shirt and sports coat a goofy grin on his face and a bouquet of roses in his hands. Raven was touched by the sentiment but she felt flowers were so cliché. Still other then a paper one she had never received flowers from anyone. They both kissed Farah a good night and left for Ravens first ever . . . date.
Raven wasn't used to being dotted on, sure James helped Raven with rides and bills on occasion, but when the bill for dinner was as much as one months rent, it was just to much for her.
"James you didn't have to bring me here." she said eyeing the place around her hesitantly. The place was enormously fancy. Valets, piano music, six courses, whine, the works.
"Well I keep telling you. Money is never an issue." He smiled making sure to show off his silver watch. It was as clear to me Raven that he was trying way to hard. Why? He didn't have to, he should know that. She ignored the urge to call him out on it though, this WAS the last time she'd see him for who knows how long so she decided to just let whatever happen, happen.
The evening was pleasant, if not a bit much, but towards the end of the evening Raven decided to inform him of her decision.
"James, Farah and I will be going out of town for a while."
He raised a brow. "We're you headed?"
She shifted uncomfortably. "I just think it's time Farah met my family."
Now he looked really confused. "I thought you said you didn't have any family?"
She proceeded to tell him a story that wasn't far from the truth about how she was knocked up, but was too ashamed to tell her family, so she left. However now that Farah was getting older, and the fact that she was in contact with one of her family members, she decided that now was a good time for them to meet her.
He listened intently. "Is she going to meet her father?"
Honestly Raven didn't know. Technically she met Beast Boy, but she didn't know he was her father, she was still unsure whether or not to tell him. "I don't know." She answered.
He nodded deep in thought then let out a small chuckle. "So this is a good bye dinner?"
She gave a minute shrug with her bare shoulder. "I . . . can't say." They both sat in uncomfortable silence until Ravens phone began to vibrate from her bag.
Thank god! Looking at the caller ID she saw it was her babysitter. Oh no. Apprehensively she answered. "Hello-"
"Adi you need to come home right now!" She demanded over the phone.
"Whoa whoa s-s-slow down, what-"
"Just get home now!" The click of the phone told her the evening was going to be cut short.
Raven was beyond nervous when her and James walked the flight of stairs to her apartment. James was under the impression Farah might be hurt somehow, but Raven had other suspicions, ones she hoped were wrong.
Raven threw her key into the door and the second she unlocked it the sweet elderly women stormed out of the apartment. She turned sharply to Raven a disgusted look on her face. "If I had known one of YOUR kind was living here I would have had you kicked out on the spot. Mark my words you'll be out of here by the end of the month." She turned on her heel and flew downstairs to her apartment, a confused James right behind her trying to calm her down.
Doesn't that take me back, she thought to herself. With her empathic raider she located Farahs aura, once again it felt different. Oh no. She followed the trail to Farahs bedroom and under her daughters bed. Getting to her stomach to look under the small bed she could just barely make out the small silhouette of something furry.
"Farah?" She called soothingly. The small fur ball slowly emerged from her hiding spot, Raven staring with large fake blue eyes. A small baby kitten crawled out from under the bed and nuzzled into Ravens arm. The kittens fur was a beautiful shining yellow-gold with deep violet eyes, but unlike last time were she felt happiness, she felt her daughter was sad and scared.
Raven scooped Farah-cat into her arms. "Farah I know you're scared but you need to change back now okay honey." This time the change was instant. Farah looked to her mother with a frightened gaze then the small girl wrapped her arms around her mother and began crying.
"Oh . . . my . . . god . . . "
Raven didn't need to look into The doorway to see James gawking at them.
Titans tower. Next day.
"Well you seem to be doing better." Black Canary observed.
Beast Boy gave her a smile. "I guess so. I-uh-feel lighter I guess."
"Oh? How so?"
He shifted. "I-uh finally told Cyborg of something I did."
She stared with genuine surprise. "Wow."
Beast Boy laughed. "Is that weird or something?"
"For someone like you that keeps things bottled up? Yes it's a huge deal. You and he are close?"
"Oh yeah we're thick as thieves."
She smiled. "If It wasn't for this team do you think you and he would be friends?"
He shook his head. "Oh god no. He was a jock I'm very much a nerd. I mean if it wasn't for my green skin and his metal we never would have met."
She could see the shift in his attitude as soon as he mentioned his skin. "You don't care much for your appearance do you?"
He scoffed. "Would you? You wouldn't have to worry about it your gorgeous," he didn't catch what he said till the last second Black Canary raising a surprised brow, "N-no I-I-I . . . wha-wha-what I mean I-I-is-"
She laughed shushing him. "It's okay." Beast boy slowly composed himself praying he didn't look to red in front of the beautiful crime fighter.
"What I mean is when your green and have fangs, and pointed ears, the ladies aren't really lining up to be with you ya know? I have to hide behind jokes and a winning personality."
She nodded again. "Terra seems to like you?"
He looked down at the floor. "But she wasn't the first to say I was funny though." She tilted her head waiting for him to continue. He took a deep breath. "Her name was Raven. She was our teammate and friend, and what I did to her was unforgivable . . . "
Later that day.
"Mommy where are we going?" Farah whined again. Raven, took a break from her packing and placed the toddler on her bed. She had put off telling her, but clearly she couldn't put it off any longer.
"We are going to stay with family for a while."
Farah tilted her head adorably. "I thought you said we didn't have family?"
"I don't have a mommy and daddy, but you have aunts and uncles."
Farah "oh'd" but was still puzzled. "How come I never met them before?"
Raven rehearsed this for hours. She was ready for whatever question Farah would throw at her. "You were too young and their super busy, but now that your older we can go visit them." Once again Farah was thoughtful. "And guess who else will be there? Beast boy."
Farah gasped with excitement. "YAY!" She bounced.
"That's not all. He's also going to help you change into animals. No more accidents anymore ok?" Farah's smile dropped slightly thinking about her last "accident". Her and the elderly babysitter were playing and apparently Farah got too excited, and out of no where she just changed into a kitten. Her sitter screamed in fear scaring Farah so bad she hid and wouldn't come out, unsure of what to do, her sitter called Raven to come back.
Raven smiled at her daughter hoping to brighten her spirits. "Ok now go get packed." Farah scrambled off the bed and bolted for her room. Raven shook her head and continued to pack her belongings. She was nervous sure, but she was positive that once the shock wore off her friends would welcome both of them with open arms, well she couldn't speak for Terra. And once Farah warmed up to her old team she'd love them too. Farah knew who they were after all.
1 year after Farah was born
Raven sat sideways on her couch, a book in her hands and the TV blaring. You'd think Raven would enjoy the silence that her apartment had to offer, but after a while she discovered she missed the noise and interruptions when she tried to read, and as god as her witness no one would ever know that. The only other sounds to be heard were the sounds of her one year old daughter on the floor playing with her blocks. She was surrounded by the little wooden toys dressed in a lime green onesie with a headband to keep her blonde curly hair out of her eyes. She clicked the blocks together as she sucked innocently on a yellow pacifier. On occasion she would test her walking abilities by getting to her feet, wobbling over to her mother to hand her a block then wobble back to her spot, then repeat.
Raven smiled at the sight of her playing daughter and went back to her book, then the T.V. show that was on cut off for a "breaking news" segment, and of course it was her old team, the Teen Titans. She ignored the broadcast, paying to much attention would make her melancholy, however Farah did something she hadn't before.
When she heard the voices of the Teen Titans, her little head snapped up towards the television and she crawled as fast as her little limbs could take her, losing her pacifier in the process, to the wooden entertainment center the held the television up high. She hoisted herself onto her two wobbly legs, using the cabinet to assist her, and began banging on the cabinet doors with her little hands. Raven was about to tell her "no" when a picture of the Titans showed up on the screen.
"Fa-Fa-Fa-Fa-meeeeeee. Fa-Fa-Fa-Fa-meeeeeeee . . . " She babbled over and over again. Raven sat up straight staring at the one year old. She could swear she was saying "family". Raven wasn't watching or listening to the broadcast, she couldn't take her eyes off of her daughter when suddenly she started slapping harder on the cabinet doors, her litte tush bouncing excitedly.
"Da-da! Da-da! Da-da! Da-da!" she babbled.
Once again Raven looked up to the television. There, giving an interview, was Beast Boy.
(A/N: This part was inspired by PurpleCat5817's "Just you and Me")
Farah did that a few more times whenever she saw the Titans or Beast Boy, but never any other time. Not for James or the daycare or anything. This coupled with recent events just proved to Raven she had to have some empathic powers along with her shape shifting.
Once she was done packing her suitcases she helped Farah with hers, which was mostly stuffed animals.
"No, no, no you can take two stuffed animals." Farah pouted, but tried to decide on two while Raven packed her daughters belongings.
"Okay I'm ready." Raven looked down at Farah's choices. Her green teddy bear she got from James when she was born, and a black bird she got for her birthday.
Oh the ironies.
Raven packed her daughters suitcase with her clothes and other of her nessecary items then someone began knocking on the door. Farah bolted for the front door, her green bear in her arms. "It's Beast Boy!" She shouted happily.
Raven was puzzled at how Farah could have known that, but then maybe she could smell him. She joined her by the front door opening it for the changeling.
"Beast Boy!" Farah practically leapt into his arms and he was ecstatic to hold her again. His eyes met Raven.
"You guys ready?"
She nodded then went to the back room for their suitcases, but Beast Boy could sense something was off. "You okay?" He asked.
She finished up packing Farah's belongings, but didn't look up at him. "I . . . don't know . . ."
Beast boy put his hands on her shoulders. "It's gonna be ok. I promise."
She turned around glaring UP at him. When did he get so tall? "You can't promise that. What if Terra-"
"I told you," this time he grabbed her gently by her arms, "this is about Farah and whatever happens, happens. We can get through it." Raven wasn't exactly comforted, but she just had to remind herself that they were doing this for Farah. Still what DID Beast Boy plan to do about Terra? Where they even still together? She didn't have the stomach to ask.
Beast boy took their bags down to the T-car, a chatty Farah right behind him. Raven glanced around her former life, a wave of sadness flowing over her. For Farah's sake they didn't move everything, at least that's what she told Beast Boy, in reality she had this place as a means to escape if she needed to. This was her life for the past four years, would she ever come back? Did she even want to? I guess they'd have to find out. She locked the door shut and walked to the stairs.
"Adi?"
Raven looked up the staircase and was surpirsed to see James running down to her. He was so freaked out watching Farah transform right in front of his eyes, she could sense the conflicting emotions inside of him. After all he cared for Farah and Raven, but now he knew Farah was meta human. It didn't take him long to piece together that Beast Boy of the Teen Titans was the father considering the fact that she had pointed ears and can change into animals. Surprisingly he couldn't figure out Farahs eyes. Guess he never saw Ravens eyes, so for all he knew Raven was still normal.
He met her at the foot of the stairs. "Uh . . . hi." He said awkwardly.
She shuffled. "Hi." They stood there staring at anything, but each other until he caught Beast Boy packing their things into a car with Farah.
"So that's her father huh?" He said with a frown.
Raven glanced in their direction. "Yup. Now that she's showing signs of abilities we need to go to a safe place were she can learn to control them."
James gave a small scoff. "Like the X-men?" She glared at him as he put up his hands apologetically. "Sorry, sorry. It's just gonna take some getting used to is all." Raven could feel the conflicted feelings he was having between his love for Farah and his contempt for meta humans, even though as far as he knew only Farah was a meta human. Raven glanced in the direction of the car to see Beast Boy helping to buckle Farah into the back seat. Once he was done he looked over to Raven telling her it was time to go.
"Looks like it's time." He nodded sadly then wrapped his arms around her slender waist, her arms around his neck. He savored every second of their touch. "I can't thank you enough for everything you've done for us." She said into his neck.
He smiled. "Well your my friend and a love Farah, I would do it again if I had to." Raven released him with a nod and headed to the T-car, where Beast Boy was waiting for her. They hopped into the car and buckled up.
"Who was that?" He asked.
Raven sighed already staring out the window. "A friend . . . " Was all she said. Once Beast Boy was sure everyone was buckled in and ready he pulled out of her apartment complex and headed for the tower, ignoring the young man glaring daggers at him from the rear view mirror.
The car ride was quiet except for Farah who would ask a question or start jabbering away about random things. Raven would glance at Beast Boy once in a while and let out a small laugh. "You know the road is in front of you right?" Raven noticed Beast Boy was watching Farah in the rear view mirror more then he was watching the road.
"Heh sorry. I just want to make sure she's okay without one of those . . . car chair things."
She chuckled. "A car seat?"
"Yea one of those." Once again quiet, but they couldn't discuss anything important since Farah would hear them, even if they whispered, so that would have to wait. So they continued on in silence. Beast Boy wanted to know if Raven planned on staying. From the looks of the suitcases it didn't look like she was. But then what would she do? Return to her life with a shape shifting daughter, who didn't even know her own mother used to be a superhero? He had a lot of work to do that was for sure.
"Mommy, mommy look the T!"
Farah was bouncing in her seat pointing to Titans Tower. Raven shifted in her seat nervously once the tower came into view. "That's right Farah," Beast Boy announced, "that's were I live, and that's were we're going."
"Ooooooo." She continued to stare in wonder even as they drove into the secret dark tunnel that led to the Titans garage.
"Hold your breath and make a wish!" Beast Boy shouted. Farah took a deep breath, her cheeks puffing up with air as the drove through the tunnel. "Go ahead Raven." She rolled her eyes at him. "Come on!" He followed his daughters lead and held his own breath, without puffing her own ceeks, Raven held her breath, along with the rest of her family. Wow . . . her family . . .
Once they emerged from the tunnel they all released the air packet into their lungs
"What did you wish for?" Raven asked her daughter in the back seat.
Farah giggled. "I can't tell you or it won't come true." Farah made the same wish each and every time she could. Birthdays, tunnels, stars, little did she know that this time it actually came true. After all her father was in the drivers seat.
Cyborg couldn't concentrate on anything. He tried video games, cleaning up, working out, but nothing was calming his nerves. He trusted Beast Boy, even when he beat his head in when he admitted he knocked up Raven and he pushed her away, and when he said Raven was alive he believed him. Still he was scared it was true, and also scared it wasn't true. What if the rug was about to be pulled out from underneath him and this was all a joke, a sick joke. Could Raven really be coming back?
A beeping on his arm got his attention. He set up the security system in the tower to alert him when Beast Boy had returned. Right now he was looking at the video feed coming from the elevator. He felt the oxygen leave his body, his thoat tightening as tears threatened the back of his eye. It was Raven. In the elevator with Beast Boy. Even with the holo ring on he KNEW that was her, he designed the images after all. That wasn't it though. Once he had fully taken in the image of his sister, he looked down to the little blonde girl who was holding her hand. That was her daughter. Her and Beast Boy's daughter. He was about to meet Beast Boy and Raven's daughter for the first time.
He cut the feed when he heard the common room doors open. Beast Boy stepped inside and motioned for the girls to walk in front of him.
"And this is our living room, and kitchen area." he said in a soothing voice. He seemed to be giving the little blonde the lay of the land. She looked around with large eyes in wonder, her arm clinging to her little green teddy bear, but her other hand older her mothers. She may have been fascinated by where she was, but she was still shy and nervous in a new place, and she shrank behind her mother when she saw the big metal man.
"Raven . . . ?"
Raven's fake blue eyes met the eyes of her older brother. Without looking Raven passed Farah's hand to Beast Boys as she walked closer to the metal man.
"Cy-cyborg . . . " They couldn't help it any longer. They both wrapped their arms around each other, both of them releasing streams of tears they had been holding in the wake of each others absence. Cyborg wanted to be mad. He wanted to yell at her for leaving them, for letting them all think she was dead, but now that she was there, in his arms again, alive, he couldn't be angry. He couldn't yell at her. All he wanted to do was hold her, and never let her go.
If there was anyone she was sad about leaving it was this man in front of her. The relationship they had was something she missed, and cherished. She bathed his metal chest with her tears, once again glad for Farah that was keeping her powers balanced. Finally after a tearful reunion they pulled away, but Cyborg kept his hands on her shoulders.
"Well . . . look at you." Was all he could think to say.
She smiled wiping the tears away. "And you? Your . . . you . . . " To overcome with emotion she couldn't think of anything better either.
The two continued to stare at each other, soaking in each others feel, but then Cyborg's gaze found the little girl holding Beast Boys hand. She shied away from him ducking behind Beast Boy's leg, but still kept eye contact with the metal man. He was interesting to look at, he was ENORMOUS compared to her, but he had such a kind and gentle expression on his face, it was like she couldn't be scared.
"Well hello." he said gently. He got to one knee, not to close as to frighten her, but close enough. "My name is Cyborg."
She had never met this guy before and yet she could swear she already knew him somehow. Farah inched towards him, her teddy bear clutched tightly against her chest. She reached up and touched the metal half of his face. "Have we met before?" she asked softly.
He smiled a warm smile that relaxed her even more. "No sweetie I don't think we have. Maybe you saw me on T.V. or something."
She tilted her head in thought. " . . . no thats not it."
Raven watched the exchange curiously. How would she know Cyborg from somewhere?
The common room doors opened startling everyone, in ran Drake Daniels and his new girlfriend, looking somewhat worried.
"Hey Cy, I'm picking up some demonic activity in . . . " His gaze fell on the young black haired women in the room. Since Drake's powers were magic based he would sense when those with darker abilities were around. As soon as Raven stepped into the tower, and since he hadn't felt Raven's aura in a few years he didn't recognize it, but now that he was looking right at her . . . there was no doubt. ". . . Raven?"
The pinkette beside him stepped in front of Drake looking up and down the girl. "Is. . . that . . . ?"
Raven smiled slightly. "Hi . . . Kole, hi Drake."
Kole placed her hands over her mouth and gasped. "RAVEN!" She threw her arms around her. "It's you!" Raven and Kole weren't close, but Kole lost her first boyfriend to the demon Carnus, and she hated losing friends.
She pulled away, and it was Raven's turn to look her up and down. "I like the new uniform."
Kole smiled a thank you, and did a quick spin to show off her new costume. Instead white boots, she wore light blue boots with black soles, a leotard like top much like Raven's old costume that showed off her bare toned legs, and the belly was a bright white with the lower half and cups of the breasts a dark blue patterned to look like diamonds. What was most interesting about her new outfit were her light purple sleeves that looked more like folding fans when she would left her arms. Raven nodded in acceptance of her outfit then turned her head to Drake, his signiture long black coat along with boots and jeans was his typical outfit. Nothing to new about it.
Drake began to walk forward with his arms awkwardly outward as if to hug her, but since he was never comfortable with physical contact he looked like a scarecrow was coming towards her.
She stepped back holding her hand to his chest. "It's okay."
"Oh thank god." Drake just took her hand and shook it. "Good to see you aga-" Drake felt another magical aura in the room, it was like Raven's, but slightly weaker. He didn't pay any attention to it, but now that he was this close to Raven he could tell this was different.
Raven noticed him looking around the room with just his eyes. She assumed he was looking for the other source of Raven's powers. "Looking for . . . her?" Raven motioned to Beast Boy's leg were the young girl had taken shelter behind the shape shifter again, warily eyeing the new comers.
Drake's eyes fell to the size of dinner plates, but Kole calmly walked over to the young girl getting to her knees smiling kindly at her. "Hello little one," she said with a large smile, "my name is Kole. What is yours?"
Farah seemed a little bit more at ease with the girl as she inched towards her, but her hand went up right up to Kole's hair. "I like your hair. I like pink." Kole giggled with the girl, but Drake was putting the pieces together in his head.
"So if I was to guess that she's four . . . would I win the grand prize?" he asked Raven.
She shuffled uncomfortably. " . . . she's three and a half . . . "
Drake nodded looking at the little girl again . . . and caught sight of her ears. He looked up to Beast Boy, the question obvious on his face. Beast Boy nodded as an answer to his question.
"Okay well, I'm getting out of here before Terra get's back and skins you alive." Drake turned to leave, but a firm hand grabbed his ear.
"No, we are staying here to support Raven and Beast Boy." She seemed to put together the pieces quicker then he, but she wasn't bothered by it at all. "Raven's back, with a little girl! This is a good day." She finally released his ear, and as she did, Starfire, Nightwing, and Terra walked into the common room.
"Hey guys whats-" Nightwing survyed the main room, and saw the young black haired women, a little girl by Kole and a couple of suitcases, with Beast Boy, Cyborg, and an uncomfortable looking Drake. "uh . . . who is . . . ?" His own questioned was answered the closer he looked at the young women. "Raven?"
Starfire put a hand on her husbands shoulder. "Husband Dick, that is not Raven. Raven had violet hair and eyes with pale skin, this young women has . . . " Starfire took a closer look, then scrunched her face in thought as she inspected her. Starfire flew closer to her. "R-Raven?"
Raven gave a small awekward smile. "Hi Starfire."
Every glass in the living area shattered as the alien princess screamed in aboslute joy, wrapping her arms around the empath and spinning her around in the air at warp speed. "YOU ARE ALIVE! . . . " she repeated over and over again.
"STARFIRE!" Nightwing called to his wife. Starfire stopped her celebration setting the poor dizzy demoness onto the ground.
"My apologize, I am just so overjoyed!" she squealed.
"Yes," Raven grunted, "it's good to see you too Starfire."
Nightwing approached slowly. "Wow . . . it really is you?" he said giving her a soft hug. The adrenaline from Starfire's hug was slowly wearing off so she was able to except his hug.
"Well look at you." Last but not least. Terra gently gave the missing Titan a hug. "Good to see your . . . uh . . . not . . . ya know. . . "
"Yeah. Not dead and all that." Raven finished.
"We must celebrate this most joyous occasion!" Starfire squealed happily.
"Before we do Starfire," Raven stopped her, "there's something I need to tell you all." Raven turned to Farah and waved her hand to come to her. Farah cautiously approached, her green bear still in her arms. She was VERY uncomfortable with everyone staring at her, but just like with Cyborg, she felt like she knew them on a very personal level. Raven lifted Farah into her arms, her former team looking at them both curiously. "This is my daughter . . . Farah."
Starfire was about to shriek with excitement again, but Nightwing held her back. Something about this seemed off. "Raven how old is she?"
Raven, tired of the same questions, got to the point. "She is three and a half, and to answer your next question . . . " Raven reached her hand around pulling a chunk of Farah's hair behind her very pointed ear. All three mouths dropped when they saw the adorable yet troubling ears, then all focus went to Beast Boy whose head was down in shame.
After a few more minutes of the most uncomfortable silence known to man, there was a small voice that seemed to ease the tension. "Mommy I'm hungry."
Raven nodded. "Cyborg can you-"
"One Cyborg sandwitch-er-something coming up." he announced. He went to the kitchen and began pulling items out for a PB&J. Raven took her daughter and set her on a nearby stool, Cyborg handing the little girl a glass of milk. While Cyborg and Farah were in the kitchen Raven turned around to see all eyes planted on her or Beast Boy.
She exhaled. "Can I sit down before we get into this?" Raven walked calmly to the living area to sit on the couch, but she could feel the confusion, frustration, and one of just blind hot rage.
Take three guesses where that was coming from.
Raven took a seat on the couch, Beast Boy sitting far away from her on the other side. "So whose first?" she asked.
Nightwing spoke up, but it wasn't to Raven. "Beast Boy did you know Raven was alive this whole time?"
He shook his head. "I only found out about her and Farah about a week ago." Raven could feel that everyone in the room felt a little better knowing that Beast Boy wasn't keeping her and Farah hidden or anything like that, still there were more questions.
Beast Boy and Raven cringed when Terra stepped on front of them. "So you had a kid all this time?" She scowled at Beast Boy
"I didn't kn-"
"IT DOSEN'T MATTER! YOU SLEPT WITH HER WHEN WE WERE STILL TOGETHER!" she shrieked.
Beast Boy got to his feet. "We we're fighting constantly, and it was ALWAYS my fault! 'Terra could do no wrong', 'Terra's the victim', 'poor Terra', it was exhausting! I just wanted to be with someone who wasn't constantly dragging me down."
"Well you aren't the model of a perfect man either! You never talk to me! Now I guess I know why. You didn't have the BALLS to tell me you knocked up the WITCH and she had YOUR child!"
"ENOUGH!" Drake booming roar shook the tower to it's core and effectivelly shut up the fighting couple. Everyone looked in his direction, but he just motioned to the kitchen. Farah was staring at the two fighting in the living room, and she was absolutely terrified.
"Good job Terra." Raven muttered under her breath. Terra wanted to scream at her, but she was already heading to the kitchen to get her child. Raven grabbed the PB&J then grabbed her daughter who was clinging to her mother with a vice-like grip as they headed to the doors. "We'll be in my room." she called back, and left without another word.
The Titans looked around to each other, then one by one they left the common room, and headed to Raven's room. Finally all that was left was Beast Boy and Terra. She had her arms folded, glaring daggers at him. "We're settling this . . . now!" she said firmly.
Let me know what you guys think. Should the fight between Terra and Beast Boy be bigger? Who is more at fault here? Is anyone at fault?
Let me know, and I'll see ya next time,
