The Teen Titans chased Red X into the subway where the battle continued. Raven held back watching as her team mates all continued to battle the villan, she needed to channel her powers if she wanted to get a good hit. She watched as one by one each of her teammates was taken out by the villian and she couldn't help but wonder where the hell Robin was.

"Damn it, Robin" she muttered under her breath.

Beast Boy was thrown on the subway tracks by Red X. It was when she heard the blare of the subway that Raven began to fly towards the boy, but Red X got there first. Grabbing the greenling and pulling him out of the way just in time.

Raven stopped above them silently and watched, quirking an eyebrow in suspicion.

"Hey, you saved me." Beast Boy stated in shock.

In response, X just threw a kick and knocked him out of the way. That fighting style looked familiar.

Then was her chance. She grabbed him with a burst of black energy, a raven shaped claw pinning him against the wall.

She watched him struggle against her grasp and couldn't help her inner demon shuddering with delight.

She approached the villain and slammed him against the wall again and again.

"Raven!" he cried out in a familiar voice.

Her eyes glowed red briefly before she had the vision. Robin taking off the Red X mask before all of them, herself helping him escape, Robin without a mask before Slade. Each vision flashed before her like the channels on a television when Cyborg was flipping through them. Quickly but just long enough for her to get a clear picture.

"Robin?" she asked dropping him in surprise.

The boy fell to the ground coughing, but before he could recover she physically ran up and pinned him against the wall. Her arm over his throat her hand raised glowing with black energy.

"What the fuck." she growled at him, her face inches from his.

Robin looked at the sorceress. Shocked that she had figured out that it was really him beneath the mask. But then again he knew that if any of them managed to figure out it was him, it would be her. She was clever and he knew that she was plagued with visions of the future. He noticed her eyes flash red, indicating that she had a vision. More than once he had heard her scream in the middle of the night due to those visions. His room was right next to hers and something in his room would explode.

More than once had had run over to her room and demand her to let him in. Let him help.

Each time she rejected.

"I can explain." he managed to cough out. She had gotten stronger, obviously taking the one on one training sessions he had with her seriously. He knew that Raven's petite almost pixie like form wasn't' strong. She relied too heavily on her magic, as he had managed to demonstrate the first time they battled "Red X"

"You'd better start now. The team is waking up" she said harshly, her voice beginning to take on the same low and gravely form it had when she almost killed Dr. Light and that little girl.

"Chase me to the roof." he rasped before he managed to kick her feet out from under her and run.

She followed him, he could feel her aura. She was the one Titan that he felt that with, her dark aura, so much like Bruce's... so much like his. She had a dark past just like he did. Even though she never shared it, he could sense it. Only people who had gone through a tragedy and had a shadowy past could have something so twisted and dark.

He ran up the stairs, slamming the door to the roof behind him and locking it. He began to run towards the edge of the roof, maybe he would make it and not have to explain.

He was wrong. Raven had made a portal and appeared in front of him.

"Start explaining. Now." she growled out. He couldn't help but notice her eyes glow red for a moment. He remembered what happened to Dr. Light and stepped back.

She noticed and with a deep breath, her eyes returned to the dazzling amethyst.

"I need to do this. I have to catch Slade." he said quickly.

"Traitor" she snapped back.

"Raven I.." he began. He didn't consider himself a traitor until that moment. He was about to explain but the sound of the other Titans banging on the door and calling Raven's name cut him off, he turned back before turning towards her.

"Please." he begged.

"We trusted you. I trusted you. Your obsession had gone too far this time, Robin"

"I..." he started again.

"This path you are walking towards revenge will destroy you. I know it"

The door behind them began melting, Starfire was finally using her starbolts.

"So you're going to tell them?" he stated more than asked.

She sighed before stepping out of his way. "If you hurt any of our friends. I will throw you into the pits of hell"

Robin looked at her for a moment. She was letting him go, and he could tell from the look in her eye that she wasn't going to tell the other Titans.

He wanted to thank her. He wanted to tell her how much it met to him that she would do that. That she understood.

He kicked her in the chest, effectively getting her out of his way and to make it look like Red X had bested Raven.

Jumping off the roof, he used a grappling gun to slow down his fall and landed on the ground before using the transporter to vanish.

"Friend Raven!" Starfire cried out at her friend who was laying on the ground.

"Yo, Rae. You alright?" Cyborg asked offering her a hand.

She took the hand, allowing him to pull her up and wincing at the pain in her rib cage. Robin had definitely broken a rib.

"He got away" she stated in a monotone.

"We figured" Beast boy replied.

"Come we should return to the Tower, maybe Robin has found something" Starfire suggested hopefully.

Raven sighed. He sure had.

"Alright" Cyborg replied.

Raven and Starfire flew while Beast Boy transformed into a pterodactyl and carried Cyborg.

When they returned to the Tower, Robin was sitting at the computer obviously looking like he was trying to get more info.

"Yo Robin, did you find anything?" Cyborg asked.

"Nothing yet." Robin replied weakly. What the other Titans took as exhaustion from his side of the things, Raven took as exhaustion from fighting his own teammates, especially her. She did a quick look at him. She could tell from the slight bruising that was just barely visiable from beneath his mask that he had a black eye.

He was favoring his left side as he stood up. "I need to go to bed. I have a headache" he said, casting a quick glance Raven's way.

She narrowed her eyes in response.

Luckily no one on the team noticed the exchange as Robin disappeared down the hallway.

"Soooo now what?" Beast Boy asked.

"I suggest we partake in the eating of the food before we too to go to our respected bedrooms." Starfire suggested.

"I'm going to bed" Raven deadpanned as she floated down the hallway.

Behind her she could hear Cyborg and Beastboy begin their argument about tofu or meat.

She smiled slightly, she should stay. But she needed to check on Robin, he probably had a concussion from the amount of times she had slammed him against the wall.

She didn't bother knocking on his door, instead she phased through it.

She blushed when she saw Robin sitting on his bed in nothing but sweatpants drying his hair with a towel.

"Raven?" he asked surprised.

She quickly pulled her hood up to hide her blush before building a mental block for the love emotion.

"What are you doing here?" he demanded.

"You probably have a concussion and I noticed you limping. If you are going to pretend to be a villian that kicked all of our asses today, you need to not be injured. Besides if our teammate didn't wake up tomorrow morning..." she trailed off.

"Oh." he managed to let out. She was helping him, she was really going to help him.

She walked across the room and kneled before him.

"Give me your leg" she said softly.

He hesitated, but didn't say anything. Instead she let out a frustrated sigh before leaning forward and gently taking his leg in her hands. He jumped when he saw her hands emmit a soft blue glow.

He had never seen her heal someone before.

She worked silently as he felt a cooling sensation run up and down his leg. Her hands had a soft grasp on his leg as she healed him. When she finished, he couldn't help the sigh that he released.

She leaned forward and whispered. "I'm going to heal your head now."

He felt himself lean back at first as her hands began to glow blue again. But slowly scooted forward on the bed until her hands rested on either side of his head. Her hands were cool and soft. Her slender fingers applying minimal pressure to his temples.

He closed his eyes.

Then he felt her finger tips lightly land on his swollen black eye. He held his breath thinking she was going to remove his mask. But she didn't she healed him through the mask, her hand resting on his cheek. He found himself covering her smaller hand with his own, leaning into her touch.

Behind him he heard his CD case fall to the ground from Raven's powers.

She drew her hand away quickly. Her purple eyes wide as she looked at him, the rest of her face in shadow.

He reached forward and lowered her hood. He wanted to see her whole face.

She let him, although he did notice the sharp intake of breath. Raven avoided physical contact at all cost, she didn't have control of her powers she was dangerous like this. He also knew that it was how she managed to get glimpses of other people's lives, but he didn't care.

He brushed one of her bangs out of her face, gazing at it. She had soft features, her face heart shaped with big eyes framed by long dark lashes. Her skin was pale, almost sickly so but flawless. He couldn't help but noticed the dark circles under her eyes or the rose colored stains on her cheeks as she blushed at his touch.

"Thank you" he whispered.

She could feel the gratitude radiating off of him. That and something else that she couldn't place. His hand was resting on her cheek, the same way that hers had been on his just moments ago.

"Raven" he said her name.

"Stop" she stated taking his hand in hers and gently pulling it away from her face. She stood up quickly and crossed her arms over her chest.

"You had better know what you are getting yourself into" she warned before she walked towards his bedroom door. It slid open before her and she could feel his eyes on her.

She gave him one last glance and was about to slip out the door before he called her name.

"What?" she sighed turning towards him.

He walked towards her and pulled her into a friendly hug.

She couldn't help the yelp of pain that escaped her lips, nor the lightbulb in the lamp on Robin's night stand that exploded.

Robin pulled away quickly, holding her shoulders and giving her a once over. "What happened?" he demanded.

"Nothing. Just a broken rip, I'll heal it when I get back to my room"

"I did that didn't I?" he asked.

Raven pulled away and walked through the doorway before turning back to him.

"What do you expect, people get hurt when they are betrayed."

The door closed behind her and Robin stood planted to the floor and staring at the door before him.
