The next morning, I woke up and felt an empty spaced beside me. 'He left early' I thought to myself before rolling on my back.
I looked up at my ceiling in sadness. The door of my private bathroom opened causing me to slightly sit up. "X?" Xander, who had his mask over his eyes bot shown his mouth, smirked. "Morning sunshine, sleep well?" I blushed a little as I nod. "Yeah, had you right there beside me."
Red walked over to the bed and sat down beside me, stocking my cheek, pushing my hair behind my hair. "You know you could talk to me about anything right kid?" I nodded understanding what he was talking about. "Yeah I know Red."
Red chuckled before kissing me on my forehead and pulling the rest of his mask down. "See you later Kid" he said before he left through the window. I closed the window behind him. "Well, that's the famous Red x whose capture my sweet Shadow." I jumped as I heard that voice. That familiar sly yet smooth voice.
I quickly turned as white as a ghost as I saw who I wish it wasn't. "D-Death, what are you doing here?"
"Just stopping by to see my love is doing" Death responded. "I don't see what you see in that little human thou"
He walked over to me as I backed away from him, hitting the window behind me. "leave me alone Death, what part of I don't want nothing to do with you don't you not understand?" Death frowned, looking like an innocent puppy who was left in the rain by its master. "Aww but why. Part of you still loves doesn't it?" he asked as he pulled me in closer.
I looked into his dark blood red eyes before quickly turning away. I tried pulling away but his grape around me just got tighter. Death forced me to look back at him. We were now inches apart. "Let me go" I commanded. Death just smiled down at me. "I will after I get a quick, for old times' sake."
His lip brushed against mine. I tried to pull away but he held my head firmly in place making it hard to move. Luckily, thank you Jesus, a knock came from the door causing Death to look back and releasing me. "Robin, are you awake?"
"Yeah Star, I'll be right there" I answered as I slipped away from Death to my closet, which was on the other side of the room. 'Thank you Star.'
I heard Death sighed. "Your friends are annoying and would be a problem for me." I look back at him with anger written on my face. "You leave them out of this Death. They have nothing to do with this" I saw a smile appear on his face. "I assure you my sweet Shadow that I won't hurt a single hair on their heads." Mt eyes narrowed. Knowing Death he was up to something but he was a man of his word. I snarled. "You better not be lying Death, or I'll find a way to hurt you worse than the fiery pits of Hell."
Death chuckled. "Always one with words isn't you Shadow."
"My name isn't Shadow."
"Nor is Robin. Part of you is still Shadow; you just need to remember who you really are."
The window opened as Death walked towards it. "I have some business to attend to. I'll see you some other time my sweet." And with that he left leaving a black rose in his place.
I walked over to the rose and picked it up. I snarled at it angrily. I was about to throw it out the window but I couldn't. I fell to my knees as my eyes soften. 'Why must my life be like this? Why can't it just go my way for once?' Tears rolled down my face as the thorns stab into my fingers but that's not why I cried. I cried because how unfair life was. It's like they say 'Life's a bitch' to people no matter how many good deeds they do.
I sat up and wiped the tears away. It didn't make sense crying about it because that would change anything. I got up, put the rose away and continue putting on my uniform before heading off.

I sat down at the table with a bowl of cereal and milk in front of me. Raven was seated beside me while Beast boy and Cyborg were playing video games and Starfire cheering them on.
I was about to take a bit of my breakfast until I felt raven looking at me. I rested the spoon back into the bowl and look at her with a raised eye brow. "What/" Raven rest down her book and send me a concerned look. "Are you ok?"
"What do you mean, I'm fine"
Raven looked down at her book. "Last night you woke me up. I've sensed you had a nightmare, I know you had Nightmares before but this one…I felt how scared you were, I just want to know if you're alight?"
I smiled. Raven was like a sister to me and is always there when I need her. I nodded. "Yeah, I'm…"
Was all I said before being interrupted by the alarm. I stood up quickly. "We'll finish this later Raven" I said before turning to Cyborg. "Who or what is it this time?"
"Slade: Cyborg answered and all peace was gone from me. 'Today was just not my day.'
