In this chapter we are back to Raven's POV. As usual I hope you enjoy and you review nicely. Oh and I still don't own the Titans.

I stood at the top of the garden, on some decking, with Fred on one side and Kayleigh on the other. Staring back at me was a bunch of Ninja's. I had done a basic mind search with all of them and none of them had flagged up any concerns with me. Therefore they were going to help me keep on the lookout for Beastboy and if they found anything, they would report directly to Fred who could directly contact me at the tower.

I turned to Fred and excused myself. I couldn't be in this garden a moment longer as the many emotions that I could feel right now; well they were playing havoc with my powers. Things were already starting to turn black and it wouldn't be long before they started flying everywhere. I guess I was still too raw to absorb and block out so many emotions at once.

There was no roof over the middle of the garden so I levitated up and flew in the direction of the tower. As I flew I mused over something I thought I felt whilst mind searching one of the Ninja's. For a moment it had felt like Beastboys presence was right there with us in the garden. But by the time I had finished checking the Ninja's mind and scanned the garden whatever I had felt (If I had felt it at all) had disappeared. Perhaps I was losing it slightly. Perhaps I had just wanted so much for Beastboy to be there that I had imagined feeling his presence. He would have loved it; real Ninja's! I could see it now. Beastboy would have done a little dance of joy. I smiled a sad little smile and a lamppost below me blew up. I had to keep better control over my powers. I was Raven. I was supposed to have a tight grasp on my powers. I was the girl who never smiled. I was half demon. I was also a teenage girl. I was the teenage girl who had fallen in love with a green shape shifter and as much as I hated to admit it; every emotion I knew of, within the mirror that opened a portal directly to my mind, missed Beastboy.

I landed on the roof and everything that wasn't attached to it began to float. I really did have to keep better control of my powers. I decided that I would meditate now and I would only stop to search for Beastboy, if the alarm sounded and to eat and sleep. My first stop was the kitchen. I had a real fancy for a nice cup of hot Chamomile tea. Starfire was in the kitchen when I got there. She floated a few feet off the ground and hesitantly asked,
'Friend Raven, how are you?' I didn't like worrying or upsetting the alien girl so I summoned as much emotion to my face and voice without triggering my powers and responded, 'I am fine Starfire' and she left me to it. I think we both knew I was lying.

I went to my room, sipped at my tea and eventually I began to meditate. The next thing I knew I was waking up to the alarm sounding. I must have fallen asleep. I jumped out of bed, pulled up my hood and teleported to the living room. I was the second one there with Starfire rushing in not long after me and Cyborg moments after her. Robin pulled up the information on the screen to find it was a distress call from one of the members of Titans East. We responded immediately and before long we were landing on top of Titans East tower. Robin warned us to proceed with care as we had no idea what had caused them to send the distress call.

We crept down the stairs to the top level when Robin stopped and asked me to reach out and feel for any emotions coming from the building. I closed my eyes and slowly extended my senses. The level we were on was clear. I scanned each level until it hit me. I felt a wave of worry and a lot of pain. It was coming from the medical bay. I told Robin and we headed straight there. Alert in case the attacker was still here.

We lined up either side of the door and Robin kicked it open just in case. We found the Titans East huddled round Aqualad who was laid on one of the tables,
'What happened?' Robin demanded to know. Bumble Bee solemnly looked towards our group and suggested that if I could heal a few of Aqualad's injuries we could go sit down in the front room and talk. I didn't particularly want to. I was still bitter. He was the one who had ruined the first ever relationship I had ever had and probably ever would have but as much as I had a personal dislike for him; he was still a Titan, as was I and it was my duty to heal him. However I only healed him to the point where he was stable. As I said I was still bitter.

I transported to the front room and joined my team mates upon the sofa. Bumble Bee paced in front of their T.V. and I could sense hesitation radiating off her as well as a tiny hint of infatuation which was probably caused by Cyborg being so close. Bumble Bee began,
'I don't know how to start this but as you have probably guessed Aqualad was attacked this evening. He went out swimming and that's when we received a distress call from his communicator. We rushed outside to see Aqualad lying on the floor trying to fend off his attacker. We rushed over to help but he escaped before we reached him.'

Robin spoke over Bee at this point and asked the question we were all thinking,
'Who was the attacker?' Bee shot a pained look at me and said a single word 'Beastboy' and for the second time in the space of a few weeks I went numb.
