Just so you all know, I've been writing most of this when I'm really tired, so yeah. I know it isn't that great, but I hope that doesn't make the story worse. Thanks for the reviews. Here's the next chapter. I hope you enjoy.

Chapter Two

Where was Raven you ask? She was at the hospital after a few kind police officers went into the building and found her. Durga was nowhere to be found, but Raven was immediately taken to the hospital. Raven had actually fallen 'asleep' because of a loss of blood. The tiger had nicked one of her major arteries in her arm. They stopped in in time, but she had already lost a lot of blood. They gave her a blood transfusion immediately and bandaged her up.

Once they were out of the woods, they tried to figure out how to contact the Titans. They didn't have a phone as far as they knew, so the best they could do was send an officer to the Tower.

The Titans received a knock on they're door a few hours after they had returned home. Starfire was the one to answer the door.

"Hello." Starfire greeted in her usual way. "Who might you be?"

"I'm Officer Patterson. I need to speak with all of the Titans." He said.

Starfire nodded and retrieved the other Titans happily. Starfire didn't know what a police officer was, nor did she register his quiet tone and sad eyes. The other Titans of course knew and were greatly alarmed as to why. It was only then they started wondering where Raven was.

"What is it officer?" Beast Boy asked as he wracked his brain as to where Raven could be. She came home with us.. Right? She took care of Durga…I hope…He started to worry as did the other Titans. Except for Starfire.

"I'm afraid to tell you that your teammate, Raven, is in the hospital." Officer Patterson informed them. All the Titans were shocked. After Robin had calmed the group, Cyborg asked what her condition was.

"She's lost quite a lot of blood. One of her arteries was nicked, and hasn't woken up since we found her. That's all I know." The officer answered sorrowfully.

After the Titans settled down again, they had the officer take them to Raven.

***

The Titans rushed into Raven's room to find her still unconscious. She looked paler than usual and had a small bandage on her cheek, and larger bandages on her left arm and right leg. She was hooked up to a bunch of machines, slowly healing herself.

The Titans all took a seat and waited for her to wake up.

After a few hours passed, they all changed seats, and Beast Boy turned into a small cat and slept by Raven's feet.

Raven finally woke up hours later only to find her friends asleep all around her. A nurse entered the room.

"Your awake," she pointed out. "Would you like me to wake your friends?"

"No." Raven answered quickly and quietly. "How did I get here?" She asked.

"The police found you and brought you here, then they sent someone to retrieve your friends."

"How long have they been here?" Raven asked.

"About five hours, I believe. Your friends showed up a couple hours ago. Now, you should get your rest." The doctor said handing her a cup of water.

Raven drank from the cup and handed it back to the doctor. She was still mulling over the words the nurse had told her. Her friends only came after the fact. They hadn't realized she was gone until the police went to get them. She thought back to Durga's words, that her friends wouldn't miss her if she were dead.

She hadn't fully healed, and was still very tired, and fell back asleep quickly, her thoughts still drifting. The next time she awoke, her friends were awake and fawned over her, making sure she was okay.

"What happened?" Robin asked.

"Why don't you tell me that." Raven replied, a hint of hostility in her voice.

Robin was taken aback as was the rest of the team. They didn't know why she was acting the way she was, but they were quick to forgive her.

"Let's get you home. I think things will be better once your more comfortable." Cyborg suggested.

Once they were all home, Raven went off to her room claiming she was still exhausted, but Robin wouldn't let her until she finished telling them exactly what had happened. Well. Most of it anyway. She didn't tell them how Durga had told her that her friends wouldn't care about her if she weren't there, and how they had proved his words correct. The Titans made an honest mistake, but what happened, happened.

Raven never fell asleep. She tried to, but couldn't seem to make herself. She still had a cut on her arm, a scab, probably where her artery had been nicked, and healing herself did make her tired, but she still couldn't sleep. So instead she meditated, and pondered as to what really would happen if she were to go missing. She wondered how long it would take her friends to notice her absence, how hard they would search, how concerned they would be. She knew they cared for her, but just how much? How could they have forgotten? Raven's thoughts wondered back. No, they didn't forget. Durga, she must have done something… She was just trying to… but how…

It quickly became dark as her thoughts swam in circles. She tried to sleep again, but still couldn't. She felt suffocated, restless, she needed to leave. Just for a little while. Just until she could fall asleep again.

Raven teleported herself to the nearby park where they usually went for barbecue's or football. Well, the other Titans did. Raven sat nearby and read a book like she always did. She did use this park whenever she had to think. She liked to take walks in the middle of the night, she didn't do them as often as she would like. It was nice to go for a walk. It had been a while.

The fresh air filled her lungs a she slowly wandered through the park, weaving between the trees. The dark enveloped her and she gazed up at the full moon. It was truly a beautiful night.

She was walking only a few minutes before she saw an unusual sight. Another person. She never saw anyone here this late. It immediately made her go alert and she prepared herself mentally for possible situations. She didn't know how well she could fight, being as exhausted as she was, but there wasn't much else she could do. She didn't prepare herself for what did happen.

It was a man, in a long overcoat and old-fashioned hat. He had dark hair and amazing blue eyes. He was quite handsome and looked young, but had an old spirit.

"This is a strange hour to see a young lady out alone. I don't think it's particularly safe for such a beautiful girl." The man spoke soothingly and truly concerned. He had a slight Indian accent.

Raven's eyes were wide with shock. He was nice. She still held her guard. She still couldn't trust he had good intentions.

The man sat down on a bench. "You look like you have a lot on your mind."

Raven nodded her head. She didn't want to trust him, but she did. She couldn't help it.

"Would you like to talk about it?" The man asked.

Raven paused, but sat down next to him. She figured if he really was dangerous, she was powerful enough to avoid harm.

"What seems to be troubling you?"

Raven remained silent.

"I can't help you if you don't tell me." Raven looked at him. "I won't tell anyone, Promise." He said smiling nicely.

Raven sighed. She thought for a minute about what it was that was bothering her. "I guess I just feel like my friends wouldn't really miss me if I disappeared. They are all I have, but I'm not so sure they realize just how much they mean to me, I'm not sure they feel the same way about me."

"I see," the man replied. He thought for a moment. "You really feel this way?"

Raven nodded.

"There must be a reason behind these feelings."

Raven nodded again and told him what made her think these things. About Durga, the hospital, everything.

"Durga huh. She's causing many problems lately."

Raven didn't know what he was talking about, but didn't feel it appropriate to ask.

"What is your name?" The man asked.

"I'll tell you if you tell me your name."

"Very well. My name is Rama. Now you tell me your name."

"Raven." She replied.

"What a beautiful name. Wait, I recognize you from somewhere…ah. I know. The newspapers. You are a Teen Titan." Rama said.

Raven nodded.

"I'm sure your troubled mind will be relieved shortly. Just take a good nights rest on this beautiful night. Everything will work out. I think you will find tomorrow a much brighter day." Rama reassured her standing up and walking away with a kind smile on his face.

Raven was surprisingly comforted by his words and went home and had a restful night. Well. Until trouble came around.

***

Raven woke up when she heard a noise. It sounded like one of her books had fallen off of her shelf. She groggily got up to investigate. There was in fact a book on the ground. She didn't remember it being anywhere near the edge. She started to bend down after the book when a hand came from behind her, jerking her backwards. She hit her head on something hard and only saw a pair of legs, black pants and boots before she slipped into unconsciousness.

The next morning, Robin cooked breakfast and wouldn't tolerate Beast Boy and Cyborg's usual argument over Tofu and meat. For once they all had a somewhat peaceful meal. Raven's absence was not unusual in the mornings. She usually woke up fairly early and made herself herbal tea, but when she didn't come out after noon, Robin sent Beast Boy and Cyborg to make sure she was okay.

The two Titans went off and left Starfire and Robin to talk about the beautiful morning and plans for the day.

Beast Boy and Cyborg rushed back into the room.

"What's wrong? Is Raven okay?" Robin asked sobering up from his easy conversation with Starfire.

The two boy's looked at each other then turned back to Robin. "Raven's missing."

Oh snap! who took her dudes? Give me you bestest guesses. hope you enjoyed that. L8R!
