"What's wrong with me?"

It was harder than Logan had thought, to sing and speak off key. But that was why she had asked to play Lina Lamont. Because it was hard, different. Because she could learn something. Logan knew the heroine part. Now she was learning something new. She was adapting thing, mostly from her father, that made people crack up when they saw her. It thrilled her. To be able to control people's emotions like that. When she was done with rehearsal she walked outside to Jack waiting for her in his brand new Aston Martin. A gift from his Aunt and Uncle in LA. The same people he and Raymond spent every summer with. They kissed before he started the car. Picking up Lewis from dance practice before going home.

"How was it?"

"Fine. Mr Frey keeps saying how strange it's with neither you nor me in in the leads."

"I bet Karl hates that."

"Hey, he has to fill your shadow. Not easy."

She grinned before rolling down the window. She was fifteen and a junior, it was early autum but still warm.

"I still dont see why you can't do both the musical and the film?"

"I have to skip class to have time to make this movie Baby Girl. It's not fair for the other actors if I can't put everything I got into what I'm doing. You know how annoying it is when you have to act with someone who doesn't show up or has something else on his mind."

"You mean like you usually do?"

"Ha ha, very funny."

Logan laughed and leaned back. Jack stopped outside a building with dozens or so people standing outside and smoking. Lewis walked through the smog and got in back. He was wearing his ballroom gear. He had decided that this semester he wanted to branch out and try different dance stiles. Today was his first lesion.

"How was it?"

"Different."

But good different. Logan smiled to him in the mirror before she looked back outside.

"On my birthday present can you engrave Logan Marie, and not just Logan."

"Of course, wait, how did you know about your present?"

"You're accomplish is Sahara. She's not known for her secret keeping skills."

He sighed, but smiled.

"Probably right. Fine. Why?"

"I want to start using both my names now."

"We have to call you Logan Marie?"

She smiled to Lewis.

"No, you can call me Logan, but I want to use both names now that I'm nearly grown up. Logan's a kid. Logan Marie is a woman."

Both guys laughed at her, and Logan, insulted, folded her arm and looked out of the window.

"Sorry."

"We didn't mean to laugh at you."

"You can feel what you want, but it's rude to laugh at people. Especially when what they said is true."

Lewis pushed his hand toward his mouth to hide the smile. Jack was driving and wasn't as successfully.

"What?"

"You might be right about the names Baby Girl, but you're not a woman..."

The man had just appeared out of thin air. Jack pushed down the breaks and stopped inches from his father. The three people looked at him.

"Are you two okay?"

Logan and Lewis nodded as Jack opened the door.

"Lewis stay in the car."

She opened the door and hurried out. Not because of Jack or his father, but because there was something else. Something was going to happen, and when she turned she froze. The man was wearing a mask, but the feelings she got from him made Jack's father seem like a saint. Or, not a saint, but less of a bad man. This man with the mask had used Mr Whell to stop the car. Jack had seen it, and forgotten his father. He didn't look at the man with the mask. He looked at the hundreds of fire-men. Lewis got out of the car and they grabbed him, but screamed and pulled away when his necklace started to glow.

"Forget the boy. Get the girl."

For å moment she turned and looked at him and the necklace, and smiled. But didn't move. She was paralyzed. Jack tried to help her, but was powerless and Lewis ran over to his side as he saw he was hurt. The masked man walked over to Logan and grabbed her, filling her body with red markings.

"Hello Logan"

Logan just looked at him, before they, and all the fire men, vanished. Lewis didn't know what to think. Jack was lying on the ground with sever burns and Lewis knew he had to help him. He called his parents and told them what had happened, before doing his best with the wounds.

--

Raven looked calmly at Jack as he sat on the curb, his head in his hands. He was crying, but she pretended not see. She just grabbed his arm and continued to heal him. Lewis had saved his life, but nothing else.

"She didn't even try to fight him."

"It's her arsonphobia."

"I never understood why she was so afraid of fires."

Beast Boy landed and morphed back to a human.

"Nothing. It's like they vanished into thin air."

"You checked the old library?"

"Cy there now. Victor and Vanessa sneaked into the back seat. They wanted to help."

Raven could feel Jack tighten, and thou it must have hurt a lot he didn't winch.

"Mom, I want to help."

"I told you, get home, and get into the protection room with Lucky."

"Mom..."

Lewis was quieted by Angela.

"Let's do what she says Lewis."

He pulled himself out of her grip.

"She's my sister Gela."

"And what will happen if they go after you? Do you know how lucky you were?"

"They did go after me. They stopped because of the necklace. The necklace she gave me. She looked at me and smiled because she knew I was safe. She was being grabbed by those things and all she could do was smile because I was safe."

"That's enough Lewis."

Bruce's voice was so much like Robin's Beast Boy and Raven shared a quick look.

"If you really want to help Logan, then do what your parents tell you to, and stop acting like an ass. That way they can stop using their energy on you and start using it finding Logan."

Lewis and Bruce stared at oneanother like a showdown, before Lewis started to cry. Angela hugged him, and this made the crying worse.

"And you have to stay near Lucky. It's possible that they could go after him, and if it's true that the necklace saved you, then it can save him too."

He nodded.

"I can drive you. I'm no use here."

Jack, now healed enough to go about with out too much pain or risk, got to his feet. Angela smiled grateful and started to lead Lewis towards Jack's car. Raven grabbe Jack and made him look at her.

"Jack I just want to thank you."

"For what, Logan got taken..."

"You didn't run away. Jack, true heroes are those who don't back down even if they can't win, when they're fighting fot the right thing."

"So I won on moral. Hurray."

"No. You won the right to look her in the eyes when we bring her back."

He didn't understand now, Raven knew that, but he would. When he saw Logan was fine. He walked over to the car, leaving only Bruce.

"Bruce, when you get back, Angela needs to take the other children down to the safe room and stay there. But could you stay with Lewis and Lucky in the other room? And call us if something happens. Lewis isn't as strong a fighter as you, and especially now when he's so down. He needs you."

He nodded, before walking to the car and Jack drove off. Beast Boy and Raven was left alone on the street. Not even civilians or paparazzis. Beast Boy knew Raven was on the brink of falling apart. She was standing completely still, looking so intensely at a point he was sure at any minute it would catch fire.

"Rae?"

"I knew this would happen."

"You couldn't know..."

"Yes I knew."

She was still not moving. Beast Boy walked closer.

"We'll get her back."

"And then what? You think he'll be done with her? Have you any idea what he's going to do with her?"

"Use her to end the world."

She looked at him and now he could see that she was trying to hold back her tears. He laid his arms around her and thou she leaned on him, she still held back the tears.

"You won once Rae, we can beat him again."

"Because he let me live. He's not going to let me do that again."

"Then we find another way. Rae were superheroes. We always win."

"Heroes win in the movies and comic-books. Not always in real life, you know that."

Beast Boy was stroking her back, but didn't look at her. He knew heroes didn't always win. And now his daughter was suffering, because of who she was born. Because she was Raven's daughter. Does that mean you blame her?

Of course not.

In the wild cubs come first, the mother second. If the mother was a threat to the kids...

Raven is not to blame because of her father.

No, of course not. But you can't deny that if Logan hadn't been Raven's kid, she wouldn't have been in danger right now.

He wanted to throw up, but couldn't. He felt rotten to his core just thinking that. If Raven hadn't been Raven he would never have Logan, or Lewis and Lucky. If Raven hadn't been Raven the wonderful things he loved about his children wouldn't be there. If he hadn't had Raven, he would never have gotten a family.

"This isn't your fault Rae."

"If it hadn't been for me our daughter wouldn't be the target of the worst demon in this history. She wouldn't been taken by fire demons and a man who is dead. Who we killed. And Lewis, he has never acted like that."

"Maybe that's a good thing. You know, maybe he needed to let of some steam."

"Don't joke about that."

"Hey I'm Beast Boy. That's what I do."

"And as always you show very little talent in it."

She gave a small smile, and Beast boy grinned.

"You're the one who called me funny."

"Once."

"No, it was more than one time."

She was calmer, and Beast Boy used his sleve to dry her face thou she protested.

"Okay, let's get our kid back, or do you need more time to calm down?"

"Don't talk to me like I was ten."

"You're fine."
