"A coma?" asked Beast Boy bewildered, Raven couldn't be in a coma right now he needed her "How is she in a coma? She wasn't hurt that bad was she?"
"Well no," said the man in scrubs "I'm Dr. Williams by the way she's in what we call a psychological coma."
"What exactly is a 'psychological coma?" asked Jinx, worried about her friend.
This time however KF answered "A psychological coma is when the problem is in your brain, while a physiological coma is when something on the outside is causing the problem like an injury."
"It was caused because she had a crappy week rather than a building falling on her head," clarified Beast Boy. When KidFlash nodded his ascent Beast Boy sank into his uncomfortable hospital chair, this couldn't be happening he thought. He couldn't lose Raven too, not after Cyborg, Star and Robin disappearing into thin air. He wouldn't lose control though he would find them.
"Can I go see her?" he asked Dr. Williams.
"Of course," replied the doctor "She's in room 416."
When the three heroes reached Raven's room there were reporters everywhere, apparently her hospitalization hadn't gone unnoticed though reporters didn't seem to realize why.
"Where are the other Titans?"
"Why were you at the library today?"
"Is Raven here to detox?"
"Why are you associating with a known villain?"
"Is she pregnant with Robin's child?!"
The questions flew over the Beast Boy's head as he repeated no comment over and over though the one about her being pregnant made him stare at that specific reporter incredulously until they had finally reached the room door and barricaded themselves within.
There Raven was lying in her bed looking like she was sleeping rather than in a coma. She was only connected to about two wires one to monitor her heart and an IV tube. The medical team had her in rather spacious room with several comfy chairs one of which BB had dragged to the bed and was sitting in while holding Raven's hand.
Suddenly the door opened and Dr. Williams rushed in breathing heavily. As soon as he finally got the closed behind the vultures, he said "If you want we can move Raven to amore private facility she really only needs one doctor."
"We can move her to the Tower," said Jinx "After all it's on an island no way the vultures can get to us there."
"They never have before," Beast Boy looking up for the first time since he had taken a seat next to the bed.
"Now that that's settled," said Dr. Williams "I need an adult to discharge her."
"I can," said KF signing the papers in the doctor's hand. "How are we getting back to the Tower BB?
Beast Boy looked up and grinned devilishly "Ever ridden a whale?"
Raven was in her mind, contemplating her dilemma. She knew she was in a coma, the only reason she would have been in her mind 'palace' for this long. Usually she wouldn't have minded but her sub-conscious had been coming increasingly annoying for the past few hours. For example they all kept on asking her if the 'cute green guy' was going to come back.
"I liked that guy, he was cute," giggled the pink-robed one.
"He understood my jokes," burped the dark green-robed one.
So they went on and on.
Except for the grey girl she kept on whispering "Four" over and over again…but Raven ignored her that part of her mind had never exactly been the most stable part of her screwed up brain.
This whole coma thing left Raven in bit of quandary, she now had time to do nothing but think and her mind didn't want to focus on the disappearance of her friends, it wanted to focus on Beast Boy.
Beast Boy was a very popular subject here in her mind. He had an entire island dedicated to him. Over the past few days that island had grown from a simple friend who had a special connection, to something bigger, something more significant.
Sometimes Raven wished she could go back to when her and Beast Boy had been frenemies so she wouldn't have to think these thoughts, but then she thought of the good times they'd had, even the penny she kept in a wooden box in her room.
She was so lost in her thoughts she didn't notice the pale, pink haired and purple clad girl until she nearly ran into her.
"Jinx, what are you doing in my head?"
