Robin's p.o.v.
Everything felt like too much of a blur. After that fight with Slade and his minions. Maybe something changed?
I had tried to talk to Raven plenty of times. Each time something got in the way. It was only this morning that I actually got something from her. I knew it was wrong to ask, but I felt something oddly off in the tower ever since the fight.
Quiet and conserved she told me what she thought has happened. I never doubt her; she's too smart to be wrong. I watched her a few times during the conversation. That was before she told me her emotions were messed up. I watched the तालिका, टेबल after that. Something about emotions struck me. Even after increasing distance with Starfire. I felt she would see something in me if I looked.
Mask या no mask, she was just that good. Birds of a feather…
She had abruptly left to go read. Probably just wanted to get away and think, या get away and stop thinking. Either way I probably wasn't helping. I almost thought about asking her to stay.
It was almost enjoyable, her company. She was decidably different. Kind of like a danger I should stay away from. But at the same time आप just wanted to touch…
I bid the thought away. I was a leader; remember what trouble I got in with Starfire? I decided to make breakfast. Everyone was slowly waking up द्वारा now. I turned on the stove and flipped in some tofu eggs and some regular eggs. We didn't need और fighting.
I could hear the boys in the living room now. Also there was the presence of the ever-cheery Starfire. I could sense Raven was in the far corner. As always पढ़ना some book of hers.
I let my mind wander my eyes दिखा रहा है a defined emotion behind the mask. Something too dangerous to be let out. I found myself thinking और since the deal with Star. I knew she still liked me. It just didn't feel right. I'd learned to trust in myself that if things felt wrong they were wrong.
Starfire would just have to get used to it. The rest of the Titians had in time.
Something tugged at me I looked up. I was still alone in the kitchen. I heard a loud crack and a crash of glass shattering. I knew it was Raven. This same emotion as yesterday had come through.
Quickly flipping off the stove I rushed into the living room. Sure enough there was a fallen lamp and an exploded light bulb. Starfire looked hurt staring at the stairs. I guessed she had been near Raven and she had just left for her room.
"What happened?" I addressed Beast Boy and Cyborg.
"I dunno man, I was just about to ask Starfire here," Cyborg turned to the Tamaranian.
"Dear friends, something is troubling Raven!" Starfire took off her sad smile only to replace it with a face of concern.
"What were आप two talking about?" Beast Boy raised an eyebrow.
"We were talking about-guys," She stuttered, probably trying to fix a subject close to the truth. A blush was across her cheeks. "Friend Raven looked like she was thinking, then that light blew up. She ran off to her room."
"Oh, Florborg! Was it something I did?" She clasped her hands and looked about to cry.
"Oh never Star," The two boys अगला to me reassured her. My mind was too busy trying to figure it out. Instead I decided to confront her. She कहा she could handle this.
Things exploding, was not handling it. I sped off toward the rooms. I could hear तारा, स्टार follow. That was the least of my worries. At Raven's plain door I abruptly stopped. तारा, स्टार caught up and was standing beside me. I knocked.
"Rae, open up," I banged on the door. I wasn't getting any answer. Worse, I could feel something terribly wrong. I felt like a fight was going on, on the other side of the door. In her room.
अगला to me तारा, स्टार had been rapping and calling out to Raven as well. She answered neither of us. I wasn't about to give up. I pounded on the door more. Raven was the only one who could open her door.
I felt energy pool around the door. A faint black outline surrounded the door. It slid a little open.
There followed a crashing sound and then darkness. Alarmed I slid the now open door all the way and stepped in. I had never seen her room before. It was different then the other Titians rooms I had been in. It was dark, almost completely dark; there were strange statues and a किताबों की अलमारी on one wall.
I squinted into the dark leading तारा, स्टार inside. I saw the बिस्तर and a figure lying upon it. This was strange. From all that noise and power I felt I thought she was mad. And now she was…sleeping?
"Robin, friend Raven, she is sleeping?" We both stood at the edge of the bed. Raven was wrapped slightly in her cape and her हुड, डाकू was down दिखा रहा है a calm sleeping form. Her बैंगनी, वायलेट hair spilled out around her head glinting in the small light present in the room.
Somehow I felt myself reach out a hand. It lightly touched her cheek. Very…bad…idea.
Raven shot up, causing my hand to slide back into her sleek hair. Her eyes glowed an intense red that I had only seen a few times. तारा, स्टार beside me shrieked. That did nothing but make her angrier. I felt afraid for a second. We should have never come in here.
In a black rage we both were thrown to the other side hitting the दीवार with sound thumps. I slumped to the floor holding my head where I felt a lump growing. Groaning I tried to sit up. Propping against the दीवार was I able to stay up. I glanced over to Star. She looked unconscious.
"She's fine, she'll be out for a few hours." Raven's voice flooded over to me. Cringing I looked back over to her. Her eyes had turned back to a softer बैंगनी, वायलेट and I visibly relaxed.
"Take her and get out," She commanded standing up from her बिस्तर and pulling her हुड, डाकू up.
"Raven-"
"Out!" Her command was stronger as we both were surrounded in black energy. Deposited just outside the door her bedroom door slammed shut. Sealing me and an unconscious तारा, स्टार out.
I was back to square one with nothing और than a headache. I ran a hand through my black hair. She was one stubborn female. Wanting to handle everything herself when ready help was available.
Something in the back of my mind reminded me that I was the same way sometimes. I glared at the offensive door and stood up. Slumping तारा, स्टार over my shoulders I decided to take her back to her room.
Then maybe some training would take my mind off things. As I walked toward the training room the Titan alarm went off. Groaning I rushed into the living room. The screen flashed red for a second.
There had been a break in at another old warehouse in Jump City. It was probably the hassle some trio. I ran a hand through my hair. Best Boy and Cyborg had just arrived beside me.
"Titans, lets go." I called already turning on our alarm to head out the door.
"Hey where's the other two?" Cyborg asked when we had assembled in the T-car.
"Busy, we can handle these three."
"Of course we can," Beat Boy began दिखा रहा है his "muscles". I laughed almost fake. We arrived at the scene sooner than expected.
Jumping out Cinderblock was easily spotted. Causing बिना सोचे समझे destruction. Gismo was off in a corner fiddling with the electrics of the building. I hadn't spotted Slade या Jinx next. That made me a little jumpy.
I decided to take Cinderblock with Beast Boy while Cyborg got Gismo. Running towards the villain I jumped into the air. BB quickly transformed into a सांड, बैल to run into the block.
I landed a kick to the चोटी, शीर्ष at the same time Beast Boy hit his horns into the rock. It resulted in his fall. Quite literally crumbling things. Satisfied I turned around to see Cyborg आग his तोप at Gismo. Narrowly missing Gismo pulled out something and threw it at Cyborg.
Smoke flew around him blocked him from view.
"I got him," Beat Boy covered transforming into a T-rex to catch the escaping Gismo.
Suddenly I was hit harshly in the back. I felt a sting sink into my body most harshly. I fell to my knees trying to keep my head from swimming. I glanced up to see Jinx. Clad in गुलाबी she hopped around throwing गुलाबी magic at both Beat Boy and a smoke covered Cyborg.
I felt paralyzed glaring at the गुलाबी girl.
"Seems like a little bad luck had befallen you," She laughed dancing around our stuck figures. The girl really bugged me.
"Not as bad as your luck," Came a strong voice. Strong, cold, and monotone. All four of us turned to see an angry Raven.
Without time to think she threw a large blast of black magic at Jinx. It hit her full side and she screamed in pain. I smirked, even though I was probably the cause of such anger.
Her barricade continued. I tried to yell out to her to stop. She shot a glance at me. Her eyes were black, not red. That was a good sign. But at the same time a medal pole was pulled from the building and slammed down on Cinderblock.
Her attention turned back to the fight that was now an unobstructed victory. I watched as she pulled her powers back in. A few black objects refused to stop floating. Were her emotions out of control again?
I watched her with some kind of amusement. It took her quite some time to gather up all the black energy. Some had come near me. I cringed waiting for some destruction. However the black smoke removed whatever paralysis was on me.
Smiling I jumped up and walked toward Raven. Her black magic was already revitalizing Beast Boy and Cyborg.
"Great job, Raven, आप were awesome," I smiled placing a hand on her shoulder gently. I watched her eyes, which seemed to change a second. There was a crash that made me turn sharply. A black covered pole had just thrown itself across the building.
"I must go," Her answer was almost a whisper. But before I could stop her the dark Raven was gone. Vanishing in her own darkness. Was it something I had done?
या was it just a coincidence her powers messed up around me?
"Oww, my head hurts!" Beat Boy stumbled over rubbing his green hair. "She sure can finish then," She smiled goofily.
"Yea, हे me and Cy will head home, आप stay here and make sure the police get them. I don't think Slade's here this time."
"Sure," Beast Boy walked back over to Cyborg to let him know. I looked to where Jinx was laying unconscious on the floor. I felt myself walking over to her. I bent down to the girl poking her lightly.
She grumbled a little opening an eye.
"What did आप do to Raven?" I asked. I stood back up pressing a boot lightly to her throat.
She laughed in between a mass of coughing. "Aww is your poor Raven loosing control?"
I pressed a little और on her throat. She gasped a little for air.
"Why so suddenly obsessive about her?" She raised an eyebrow an all-knowing smile. I pressed her throat a little और out of anger.
"She's a friend and I'm worried. Now what did आप do?" My voice growled at her.
"I just amplified a feeling, Slade knows it will work for his advantage." She coughed moving her arms to try and हटाइए my boot.
"Slade?"
"Yes, Boy Wonder finally has a weakness," Her laughter came in shrieks that brought the attention of the other two. It also caused her oxygen. Her head lay back on the concrete passed out from oxygen loss. I grimly smiled.
Had I missed something? I didn't do weakness. I walked back to the two boys. Without a सेकंड thought I grabbed Cyborg's keys and made my way toward the T-car.
