"Grab my hand!" the boy with dark green hair and light green skin screamed. The girl in the dark cloak clung tightly to the edge for dear life fearing letting it go even just a little bit. "Trust me! I won't let you fall!"He screamed sensing the hesitation in her. She hesitated. Her arms started to grow tired and shake as she reached up a moment to late as she started to fall back. It was as if it was in slow motion. The look on the boy's face was a look of horror as he tried to catch her hand that was just a few inches away from his reach. The girl fell 20 feet below hitting the ground hard. The ground had caved in with the blow. The girl lay coughing up blood still staring for as long as her mind stayed awake. "NOOOO!!!!!!" He had screamed as she had fallen but started to choke on as he stared at her laying there broken. He screamed a sorrowful scream that made all the dogs who heard howl with him.

The girl had survived the fall, but was in a comatose state. Almost all her bones had been broken in the fall. Her used to be short purple hairl was now well past shoulder length. She slept peacefully. The green boy sat at the bottom of door in shame. He felt as though he had no right to be here but he couldn't bring himself to staw away. He watched her keeping himself wrapped up with his long arms. He had also undergone changes in the past year. He had gotten taller, stronger, faster, and much more mature. His team mates didn't hear a joke coming out of his mouth ever since the girl had fallen. Her falling had been a horrible blow to each team mate , but it affected the green boy more than anyone.  

He sat there watching her when her hand started to twitch slightly. He jumped up at once and seized her hand. Never taking his eyes off of her face. His eyes widened as she slowly opened her eyes squinting at all the lights. She let her eyes adjust to the lights when she saw him. They said nothing at first. Then finally, the girl asked," Who are you?" The boys face went blank with shock and hurt. He had not expected her to forget him. Tears started to come out of his eyes but he smiled and shook his head. Even though he was heart broken he was still overjoyed that she was awake and well. He touched her face still smiling at her and said,"I'm Beast boy. You're team mate, Raven." She stared at him blankly. " Who is Raven?" She asked. She looked away from him awkwardly. He was speechless. All he could do was push his titan signaler letting the other titans know to come to where he was.It didn't take long before they were there. A young woman with bright red hair, orange tannish skin, and green eyes all thoughout came in the door first.Followed by a guy who wore a mask and another guy who seemed to be part robot as well.Raven looked at all of them shocked.They stared back even more shocked than her.

"Oh Raven!!!"The orange girl screamed quickly coming close and hugging her in a death grip hug.Like beast boy she also was crying while smiling. Raven shoved the strange girl off of her and then asked who they all were, and just like with beast boy they were all shocked. Raven's eyes shifted to beast boy he had been looking down in shame but when he noticed her staring he looked up and smiled brightly. Everybody went through their names saying they were all apart of the same team. Raven was still confused but silently kept it to herself.

It had been half a year since Raven's release from the hospital. She still has yet to use her powers. She meditated and read all the books that were in 'her' room to try to understand herself more and as to why she couldn't use these powers the others claimed she had. There was a knock at the door. Raven cracked it open and saw starfire standing there smiling widely,"Friend! Might we partake in the glorious food you humans call pizza together with everyone?" she offered. Raven answered quickly," No thanks." Quickly shutting the door she returened back to meditating on the floor.A few minutes later there was another knock. "I already said I don't want any pizza." she said to the knocking. "Thats not what I'm here for."A different voice said. Raven went to the door and cracked it to find beast boy standing there. "Can i help you?" she asked him. " Ca-" just as he was about to say something the titan alarm went off meaning titan tower was under attack. Raven stood in shock as all the titans sprang into action without having to communicate with each other.Raven not really knowing what to do ,but wanting to help this time, copyed what they were doing.

They were about to split seperatley when beast boy grabbed Raven and said," You're coming with me." Raven was confused. " Good idea beast boy.Someone needs to protect raven being that she can't use her powers yet." The leader, robin, said. Beast boy nooded at them and they split into the groups and spread out through the tower. Raven and beast boy went to the roof.When raven was about to go out the door to the roof beast boy stopped her with fear in his eyes. " Raven will you just wait here. It shouldn't take that long.I mean I highly doubt anyone would come up this high yet." She was reluctant at first but eventually agreed to it. She opened the door to watch him. For some reason her eyes followed him and it didn't bother her.

A man with a mask jumped out of no where attacking beast boy. Beast boy fell to his feet but quickly sprang into action turning into a large tiger biting the guy in his leg.Raven wanted to help assist beast boy but knew she had no power to do so. If only she had power she kept thinking. Then as if her wishing had done something to her she knew what she could do even without powers. She ran out onto the roof and grabbed some heavy poles.It took everything she had to pick it up and throw it with enough strength to hit the attacker. 

The man attacking simply looked at raven and snorted at how her attempts were futile to hurting him. "Oh well if it isn't miss sleeping beauty." He said jumping and landing right in front of her.He grabbed her hair and pulled it towards him. "What's wrong Raven.Can't use your powers?" he asked already knowing the answer. "Shut up!"Raven yelled hitting his hand off.  "Come now,raven,  What happened to your usual calm and composed self huh?"He asked messing with her. "Shut up!" Raven screamed at him. Swinging the pole back and forth. "Leave her alone Slade!" Beast boy yelled as he ran next to her. Slade started to laugh slowly. Raven stopped and looked franticly at beast boy as he put his hand on her shoulder. "Go back inside Raven." Beast boy said. Her eyes grew wide. Could she not help if she didn't have her powers. Tears fell from her eyes. "I...I just...wanted to ...to help."She muttered silently. "Go Raven." He said again. She started to back up with a dejected look on her face. "You're just in his way Raven.That's why he wants you to leave." Slade said. Raven froze. "That's not true!"Beast boy yelled. "Oh? Then why are you making her leave if she's not in your way?" Slade asked. "Shut up! You know nothing!You're the only one in my way!"Beast boy yelled getting angry. Slade turned his attention to Raven and said," You would never be in my way raven. I even know how to get your powers back. All you have to do is come to me." Slade opened his arms as if to welcome her in. Her eyes grew wide. He knew how to get her powers back. This man knew. "Don't listen to his lies Raven!" Beast boy yelled. "They think you're in the way raven, but you would be useful to me more so than to them." Slade continued. "I'm getting tired of you talking Slade!" Beast boy said spitefully. "How about I make you shut up huh?" Beast boy's face was full of rage as he transformed into a large tiger. "Beast boy...."Raven whispered.

"Beast Boy! Raven!"Robin yelled bursting through the doors to the roof followed by Cy-borg and Star fire. Their faces turned to rage when they saw slade. "Slade!" Robin said hatefully. "My My.If it isn't the rest of the teen titan brats." Slade said. They glared at slade. "Sadly teen titans brats, I don't have the time of day to spend playing with you. I'll see you later Raven."Slade said throwing a smoke ball down and disappearing. Beast boy transformed to his human form and stared angrily down. Raven watched as beast boy stared angrily out over the city. "Beast boy."Raven said.

Raven lay on her bed thinking about what had happened that night. Beast boy had been acting strange since slade had left. She had so many questions that had no answers going through her mind when a soft knock was at the door. She got up slowly and opened the door. It was Beast boy. Raven had only cracked the door open a crack but beast boy opened it wider so that he could get in the room and close the door behind him. "Beast boy?"Raven said shocked at how he barged inside. He didn't say anything. He grabbed raven and pulled her close to him. Raven froze from shock and embarrasment. "Um..."She said,"beast boy?" He put his head on her shoulder and said," I'll bring your powers back, so don't leave." Raven was shocked. "I wasn't going to leave.....Anyways you're acting strange beast boy." She said trying to shrug him off. His grip tightened and his shoulders started to shake as if he was crying. Raven stopped resisting when she looked up. He was crying. She looked away in embarrasment. She sighed and slowly put her arms around beast boy. She patted his back and said in a soothing voice,"There there....It'll be alright." Beast boy stopped shaking. His grip loosened to where she had breathing room, but he still refused to let her go. "Raven..."Beast boy said lowly. "Let me stay with you tonight." He asked whispering into her ear. Her face normally a pale white suddenly turned bright red. "Beast boy?......." she looked at him embarrased and said,"......ok... but no weird stuff." Beast boy let out a sigh of relief.

Even though she had said she could stay there with her that night it didn't hit her that they would share the bed until they were laying down in it. Beast boy was  gazing sadly at raven. " Umm...Beastboy will you turn into an animal so this is so awkward?" Raven asked turning away from him. Beast boy put an arm around her waist and pulled her closer to him and said,"I want to be human tonight." Her face turned bright red. It was akward silence between them after that. "I actually don't want you to get your powers back so that way you can never be hurt again. If you werent to get your powers back then I'd be the one to protect you then.You'd never get hurt. I would protect you from that bastard father of yours too." He said so low raven had to stop breathing to hear. Raven thought about the words then turned to face him. The stared at each other without saying a word. Raven put a hand on the side of his face and kissed his forehead. "Thank you for worrying about me ,but I need my powers...No,I want my powers.Its the only thing that connects me to everyone in the teen titans." she said to him. He pulled her even closer to him and said," You don't have to be connected to everyone ,just me...I love you.Raven." She looked at him shocked but somehow hearing it felt natural to her. She didn't say anything but she knew what she wanted to say to him. It sound and felt natural to her too." I love you too."she whispered barely audible. Beast boys eyes grew wide as he stared at Raven. His face grew from joy to shock to worry within seconds. "Raven!" Beast boy said sitting up grabbing her hand quickly. Raven looked at their hands. She was slowly disapearring. Yet she wasn't worried.Raven sat up and gave beast boy a light kiss on the lips and smiled at him. "Don't worry. Somehow. I just feel as though everything is going to be okay."She said completley vanishing. "Raven!"Beastboy screamed.

"I promise you raven.I will find you." He vowed to himself as the search for raven began.
