"Lion."

"Rhinoceros."

"Seal."

Farah tilted her head in confusion, her soft blonde curls bounced against her shoulders as they followed her head movement. She squinted her vibrant purple orbs then tapped her chin in thought. "Um, I don't know what that is..."

Beast boy morphed back to his original form then sighed. "I was a pterodactyl! Remember? We went over it like 15 times."

Farah folded her arms in a huff then stuck out her bottom lip in annoyance. "It's a big word! How am I supposed to remember that?" She said with her young voice.

Beast boy dropped his annoyed tone before cracking a smile. He strode to his daughter, carrying her in his strong arms. "Ok, ok. You're right, but you're gonna' get the word right eventually."

Beast boy playfully squeezed Farah and bounced her on his hip to cheer her up before moving towards the exit of the roof. He loved teaching Farah new animals. He had the upper hand, considering the fact that he was the entire animal kingdom wrapped up in one body. On a daily basis, Farah would exercise her powers by using them around the Tower, though most of the time it consisted of her getting into trouble. But in all, she was still ignorant to the variety of animals that she could morph into. Beast boy noticed this and decided: why not teach her through visuals?

Farah rested her chin on Beast boy's lean shoulder. She stared at the sunset lowering over the horizon, giving the large sky an orange tint. She leaned back in Beast boy's grasp then squeezed out of his arms. Beast boy raised a brow in confusion by her actions but reluctantly lowered her to the ground. "What are you doing, mama?"

Once Farah's feet reached the ground, she ran to the edge of the roof, ignoring her father's voice. She smiled then leaped onto the ledge, dangerously leaning over to stare at the scenery. She glanced down at the shore far below and the crashing waves tat smacked against the rocks. Beast boy gasped and nearly had a heart attack when he saw her little body jump to lean even farther over the ledge. He snatched her body away before she could potentially fall over.

"Don't do that!'' He scolded. "You could fall and hurt yourself."

Farah looked up with a small smile on her face. She wasn't scared at all of tall heights. If anything, she was excited. "I want to practice flying, daddy! I see you, mommy and Starfire do it all the time, and I wanna' try."

Beast boy glanced over the ledge and stared at the jarring rocks below. He gulped then shook his head. "No..I think we should practice that in a more..safer environment."

"I can do it!" Farah said quickly. "I just need to change into a bee like I did last time."

Beast boy chuckled at her sweet ignorance. "I don't think you'll get far by flying as a bee. You need to morph into something bigger.

Farah lowered her head in thought. "What could I turn into?"

"What other flying animals do you know?"

Farah hummed. "Um, well, so far, I've turned into butterflies, bees, flies, lady bugs. They're all easy to morph into..." She gasped when a thought arose. "Pigeons! I remember seeing those all the time in the city whenever mommy and I came from the daycare. I could morph into a pigeon and fly."

"No, no, no!" Beast boy held Farah back when she tried to lean over the ledge once more. "You can't just jump off a roof and expect to fly like you've been an animal your entire life. It requires practice." He lifted her into his arms again and holding her tight, making sure she wouldn't escape him. "If anything, you need to learn the different types of birds."

Farah frowned. She hated the learning aspect of her powers. It was fun to morph and view life through an animal's perspective, but she was tired of sitting around and spitting back out information that her father taught her. It felt like she was in school. "No." She whined. "I want to actually do it. I want to learn how to fight with my powers so that I could help you fight the bad guys.''

Beast boy grinned. "I would love to see you fight with us, mama."

"Then let me do it!''

"Farah, you're young..." Beast boy started to say. He glanced down at her young face and took notice of her quivering bottom lip and big sad eyes. Beast boy quickly turned his head away, trying to ignore his daughter's begging face. He was interested to actually see what Farah could do. He could already imagine the small superhero uniform she could wear to battle. But she's young and wasn't ready to deal with the intensity of the fighting. However, he might as well entertain her ambitions to prevent upsetting her. Unlike Raven, he has yet to say no to his little girl."..But I'm sure you can handle it." He said with a nervous smile.

Farah smiled then wrapped her young arms around his neck. "Yay!" She squealed. "When can I start?"

"Beast boy, I'm not comfortable with it. Now, drop it."

Beast boy sighed, tired of having her argue with him about this topic. He glanced down at her face. "Come on, Rae. Just give it some thought. She really wants to join us."

Raven's eyes narrowed with anger and annoyance. She turned her head to avoid his gaze and instead look down at her wrists that were lightly held together in his gloved hands. He had her pinned against the wall since she wouldn't listen to him.

Beast boy leaned in closer, eager to hear an answer from her. "No." Raven sternly repeated. "She will not fight in battles. She's too young. And I can't believe you're even considering this. What happened to you being overprotective?"

He cracked a smile. "I still am! Thinking about her being on the battlefield does make me antsy, but she won't stay young forever. We might as well get her use to fighting so that if the time comes, she can protect herself without us."

"She's a toddler, Beast boy. Yes, she should be able to protect herself, but that will come over time. She's still struggling to memorize all the animals you're teaching her."

Beast boy stayed silent and stared at his feet. "You're right but.."

Raven glanced up into his big jade orbs with a serious expression on her face. She narrowed her eyes and moved closer, lowering her voice. "Do not feed into her high expectations. She will not fight until she gets older and has better control of her powers. Understand?"

Beast boy groaned. "Rae, I don't want to disappoint her. She's so excited."

Raven shook her head. "You have to put your foot down, Beast boy; someone has to. She can't get everything she wants."

Beast boy nodded his head softly. Raven was right. It would take some time for Farah to fully comprehend and utilize her animalistic powers. When he was younger, he couldn't morph into large animals and it took him time to get used to transforming into animals that he wasn't familiar with. But he wished he didn't have to tell Farah no. That was always the hardest part in this whole parenting thing. "Ok, fine. I'll drop it."

Raven smiled softly. On the inside, she was relieved that Beast boy agreed to stop talking about this idea of his. Raven didn't want Farah anywhere near villains better yet fighting them. Farah was still a baby through Raven's motherly eyes. Having her out in the mists of danger was simply too overwhelming to think of. Beast boy is right that Farah has been more eager to exercise her power with them in battles, but she wasn't ready. Farah didn't know the true dangers of actually being out in the line of battle. The only thing she could go off on were the scenes she saw in the news.

Beast boy forced a smile on his face and leaned closer to Raven. His forehead touched her's and his arms stopped holding her wrists to snake around her hips, pulling her waist closer to his.

Raven raised a brow from the random gesture and placed her hands on his chest to push him back. "What are you doing?"

He smirked. "I'll agree to drop the whole Farah fighting with us..but under one condition.."

"What?"

"You have to move in with me."

"Wow."

Beast boy beamed with pride as he led Raven into his room. Although she and Farah have been living in the Tower for almost a year, Raven had yet to see his upgraded bedroom, much to Beast boy's dismay. Their relationship has been going pretty good. Slow, but well. Raven kept her guard up more around him, which is understandable with what he did to her in the past. As a result, she's been picky on when he would spend nights with her in her room. She would call him over when she needed to find comfort or to simply cuddle, though she never wanted to admit it. Other than that, he would sleep in his own bed by himself and maybe Farah if she wanted to have a sleepover.

Beast boy never wanted to mention this out of fear of getting Raven upset, but they had a nonexistent sex life. They did perform sex the day Raven and Farah came back to the Tower, but since then, Beast boy had to keep his hands and penis to himself.

Beast boy didn't expect Raven to come flying back to him with open arms and a new attitude, so it wasn't a surprise to see some form of distrust vibing off of her. It made him uncomfortable to know that Raven felt that way, but he hoped that he would gain her full trust over time. He only prayed that he didn't do anything stupid to mess things up again.

Beast boy smirked when Raven glided her hand over his TV stand to inspect for dust. She raised a satisfied brow when her hand came out clean.

"Told you I can stay clean."

Raven chuckled and continued walking around his bedroom, analyzing each small detail. She strode to his closet and opened the door. She took a large step back when a large pile of clothes fell out, littering the floor. "Spoke too soon." She said with a smirk.

Beast boy blushed then rubbed his arm. "It was last minute cleaning...but you know what I mean! I've made some real changes to this room."

Raven opened the shades to his windows, bringing in some sunlight and inspecting for more hidden dust and objects. "I can tell...I'm proud."

Beast boy sneaked up behind her then wrapped his arms around her waist. His nose brushed the side of her ear while his hands gently roamed her body. "I kept it clean for you."

Raven smiled softly and lightly pushed his arms off her body. She snaked out of his grasp then sat on his bed, still looking around and putting space between them. Beast boy frowned at her action. He hated when she tried to avoid any type of intimacy between them.

Raven glanced at his bedstand and noticed a picture frame. She grasped it and smiled down at the picture inside. It was of the three of them. Her, Beast boy and Farah. It was taken at Farah's fourth birthday party. Raven stood at Farah's left with Beast boy at her right. Farah grinned down at her chocolate cake with her small hand placed over the knife to cut it. Raven and Beast boy's hands covered each other as they held Farah's over the knife. Raven smiled contently, remembering the happy moment vividly. Farah's first birthday with her actual family.

"When did you take this picture?" She gently placed the picture frame back in its spot on the table, still admiring it.

Beast boy turned and smiled. "Terra took that picture."

Raven looked up at him, shocked. She and Terra made amends, especially when she sacrificed her spot and bedroom for her and Farah to return to the Tower. She still held some distrust towards the geomancer, but it was subtle. Now, she and Terra were back to being good acquaintances and from the looks of the rate they were going, it seemed that they were on their way to being actual friends. Terra loved Farah and Farah eventually learned to love her back. Terra would visit Farah about twice a month just to say her greetings to the other Titans and spend time with the toddler and Starfire. "I'm amazed," Raven said. "It's a good picture."

Beast boy nodded, glancing at the memory for a moment. "Yeah, when she stopped by last weekend, she handed me an envelope of pictures that she took with her own camera. It was really..nice of her...But I think she still hates me."

Raven chuckled. "I'm not surprised if she still does. You two didn't have the healthiest relationship."

"So, what do you think? Will you do me the honors of being my bedmate?" Beast boy comedically stood in front of Raven then got on one knee. He took her hands in his and smiled up at her with pleading eyes.

Raven's smile faded and she paused for a moment. She liked Beast boy and was happy that they now had the opportunity to be in a relationship. But she was scared to be betrayed by him again. She could feel the sincerity radiating off his aura; however, that didn't mean he was in the clear. Carefully, she gave him more opportunities to prove himself, and she can proudly say that he has been true to his word. Raven blushed then stared down at her lap. "Beast boy, I don't think-" She glanced up to look into his eyes, and that was her mistake.

Beast boy's big green eyes started to lose its shimmer and his elf ears were drooping to the side of his head. Raven cursed in her head. His soft face reminded her of Farah's own pleading look. Raven sighed then cracked a very small smile. "Sure." She whispered.

Beast boy beamed. He leaped forward and kissed her feverishly. His hands cupped her face and his body leaned into her's. Raven was so shocked from his actions that she failed to keep her upright balance. They both fell back onto his king sized bed. Beast boy stopped to look down at her face, their cheeks flushed and their chests panted softly. "A bonus is that we're around the corner from Farah's room." He said softly.

He pulled himself off of her body and helped her up. "Yeah, I guess you're right." She said.

Beast boy smirked. "See? This only shows that you made the right decision."

Raven rolled her eyes then walked to the door. "I want to check up on Farah. I haven't seen her all morning."

Beast boy slumped his shoulders and followed her out. He was hoping she would stay a bit longer so that they could celebrate her decision with a nice make out session, but that's alright. He had tonight to look forward to.

Raven walked down the long hallway then turned the was quickly greeted with a door that read Farah's name. The door was gray like the rest of the rooms in the Tower, but Farah made sure that her's was different. The bottom half of the door was covered with random animal and flower stickers as well as a few crayon colorings. Raven knocked softly before punching in the code and entering the room.

Four-year-old Farah looked up from her coloring book at her mother as she walked in. She smiled and ran straight into the arms of Raven. Beast boy stepped in shortly after. He smiled and kissed her forehead softly.

Beast boy turned and glanced down at the carpeted floor. He picked up the many sheets of stray paper with her drawings and placed them neatly on the table. "Farah, is drawing the only thing you do?"

Farah, still dressed in her pink bed pajamas, looked up from her mother's grasp. She was now sitting on her bed with her legs crossed as Raven brushed through her curly blonde locks. Her vibrant, purple orbs stared into her father's green ones. She shrugged her shoulders and smiled. "I like to color.."

Beast boy continued picking up the papers and many toys off the floor. He tossed her discarded toys in the large basket next to her door. "I never thought I would tell anyone this, but you need to keep your room clean."

Raven held back a laugh. Neither did she think she would ever hear Beast boy say those words either, but she didn't deny him. "He's right, Farah. You have to do a better job with keeping your belongings together, and I don't like to repeat myself."

Farah frowned and played with her shirt, a habit of hers. Like her father, she could be messy. But she liked being messy. Being neat and tidy bored her and required a lot of work to maintain. When she and Raven were living in their apartment, Raven would constantly check her room for tidiness or spruce it up herself, but with her room being farther away from her mother's, Raven came by less often, giving Farah the ability to do whatever she pleased.

Raven finished placing a loose braid in Farah's hair before rising from the bed and picking up her clothes off the floor. "You have a dresser for a reason."

Farah tuned her parent's scolds out as she reached to grab one of her many dolls. She picked up the fake comb for the doll's hair and styled it herself. "What are we gonna' do today?"

"We're going to the gym today to exercise that power of yours."

She smiled. "I've been practicing too, daddy. I turned into a chickadee last night. And look, I've been looking at the animal book you gave me too. I studied the different types of birds just like you said. Once you teach me how to fly, I'll help you and the Titans fight, right?"

Beast boy grew nervous when Raven turned her head in their direction. He chuckled anxiously and bent to Farah's level for her to only hear. Beast boy remembered what Raven told him earlier, but he couldn't say no to his little girl. Beat boy raised his hand for her to high five. "Good job, mama! Soon you'll start morphing into all the animals, and who knows.." Beast boy leaned forward, whispering. "You really could join-"

"Absolutely not!"

Beast boy groaned softly before turning to face Raven. "Calm down, Rae. You have to let her live a little. She's not a baby anymore."

Raven crossed her arms and her eyes flashed red. "She's four! And you promised to stop talking to her about this!"

Beast boy raised his arms defensively then took a step back when he noticed Raven's eyes flashing red once more. "Ok, ok."He said nervously. "You know what they say. Happy wife, happy life." He wiggled his eyebrow flirtatiously at her, but she only looked away out of annoyance.

"Shut up, Beast boy."

Farah stepped forward, the big animal book still in her arms. She quivered her bottom lip then stared up at her mother's face. "Mommy, please! I'm doing a lot better."

Raven eyes softened, but she still kept her arms crossed. "No, honey. It's not safe."

Farah fumed softly before stomping away from Raven. Beast boy scooped her up in his arms and pulled her close. "How about I teach you how to fly today in the gym."

"Ok," Farah said softly. She was upset and her head rested in the nape of Beast boy's neck, hiding her face.

Farah glanced up when she saw her mother turn her back away from them to go through her dresser. Farah leaned back to whisper into her father's big ears. "Mommy's being mean right now, but I can still fight if we keep it a secret, right?"

Beast boy turned to look into Farah's sweet face and couldn't help but fake a smile. He chuckled then nodded his head silently. "Um, sure.."

"Guys, this is not complicated at all."

Raven reached into the cabinets below the sink and brought out a small cooking pot. She filled it with milk then placed it over the stove. Beast boy stepped closer, observing everything she did. Raven placed a hand on her hip and raised her brow in confusion. "Oatmeal is not hard to make."

Beast boy frowned and placed his paper and pen on the counter. "I want to learn how to make it for her."

Farah beamed and kicked her feet happily at the kitchen counter as she waited for her favorite breakfast to be made.

Starfire stepped forward from behind Beast boy. Like Beast boy, she was eager to learn and had her own sheet of paper and pen to take notes. "As do I, friend! I have never prepared the oatmeal.''

Raven turned her attention back to the stove and poured the dry oats into the warm milk and began to stir. She placed the lid on top before saying, "Once you pour the oatmeal into the milk, you let it boil for about 3 minutes or until it gets soft."

Beast boy and Starfire wrote feverishly on their paper the instructions that were told. Raven only rubbed her temples at their simple ignorance.

"And don't forget the raisins!" Farah screeched from her seat.

Cyborg entered the common room with Robin in tow. The mechanical man sat next to Farah and smiled down at her as he nuggied her hair playfully.

Farah giggled. "Morning Uncle Cyborg and Robin."

''Morning, little lady.''

Robin simply smiled and nodded in her direction, going straight for the coffee maker.

Beast boy stopped writing on the paper and moved to where his leader was. "Hey, Robin..You have a minute?" He whispered.

Robin looked up from his mug. He nodded his head then silently followed Beast boy to the booths at the other end of the common room. Beast boy glanced up, making sure no one was nearby to listen. Raven was talking to Star as she added sugar and raisins into the small pot while Farah was talking to Cyborg at the table.

Robin took a sip of his coffee. "What's wrong, Beast boy? Are you and Raven going through..problems?"

Beast boy twisted his face in disbelief then waved his hand. "Nah; we're great, but I need to talk to you about.." He leaned in and kept his voice low and hushed. "Farah."

Robin paid his full attention to the changeling. "What about her?"

Beast boy sighed. "Raven doesn't want her fighting in battles because she's young, and I get that." Robin nodded his head in agreement; he also didn't want Farah running around while they fought villains. "But, she wants to join us so bad in the field!"

Robin smirked. He could definitely see how excited Farah can be. He remembers vividly when Farah went through his utility belt and asked an endless amount of questions for every single gadget her small fingers could grasp.

"I want her to gain the confidence and experience to protect herself. I started fighting with the Doom Patrol when I was young, but.." Beast boy trailed.

"Raven will kill you if you let Farah do that." Robin finished. He took another sip of his coffee before speaking again. "You should respect Raven's wishes."

Beast boy sighed before placing his head on the table. "I'm the parent too. Shouldn't I have a say on when Farah can fight with us?"

Robin shrugged. "I mean, yeah, but I wouldn't want to make Raven angry by any means. She can be very overprotective of Farah. Out of all people, you should know that."

Beast boy scoffed then placed his chin in his hand.. "Trust me, I know."

"So, what do you want me to do?"

Beast boy looked up. "Could you talk to Rae? Get her to loosen up a bit?"

Robin frowned. "What makes you think she'll listen to me?"

Beast boy smirked. "Dude, you're the leader. She respects your word way more than mine. Rae listens to me, but sometimes she doesn't take me seriously. With you.." He trailed. "It's a completely different story."

Robin felt a sense of pride after hearing that comment. He and Raven had a respectful relationship towards each other, but he didn't know Raven thought that highly of him. "I would love to help you out, Beast boy, but I don't think I'll make a difference. You know how Raven gets. If she doesn't want something to happen, she'll make sure it doesn't, even if I have a say in it." He shifted in his seat. "Besides, I think Farah is too young and small to be following us to battle."

"Come on, Robin!"

Robin shook his head. "I'm sorry. I'm going to have to side with Raven on this."

Beast boy rolled his eyes then rose from his seat. "Well, thanks anyway.." He said before walking back towards Raven.

"Alright, what bird are we going to morph into?"

Farah hummed and glanced down at her large animal book. Her large amethyst orbs scanned the many pictures of flying animals as her small finger traced the smooth page. She smiled then pointed to a picture. "Sparrow!"

Beast boy smiled in response. "Go ahead."

Farah pushed her book to the side of the gym mat then closed her eyes to concentrate. "Sparrow, sparrow, sparrow.." She whispered. In a few seconds, her body slowly morphed into a small, blonde colored sparrow.

Beast boy extended his gloved finger for Farah to latch onto. Once his daughter was secured, he brought her close to his face and laughed. "You're so cute, mama."

Farah chirped then flared her small wings, eager to use them.

Beast boy lowered her onto the gym mat then took large steps back to give her room. "Ok, mama, flying isn't hard. You're going to flap your arms back and forth just like any other bird would do. The downside is your arms getting tired, so you have to remember that. You ready?"

The sparrow chirped and hopped in its place. Beast boy nodded his head in approval then stood at the other end of the gym.

Farah moved her short bird-like legs and slowly raced towards her father. As she ran, she flailed her wings wildly. The closer she got to him, the higher she hopped into the air. With each passing jump, she went higher and higher into the air for a longer amount of time.

"There you go!'' Beast boy encouraged. "You got it!"

Farah seemed to have found her rhythm after the fifth hop into the air. When she moved to jump into the air for her sixth time, her small sparrow body became airborne. Beast boy stared with pride as he glanced at Farah whizz around the gym's ceiling at a fast speed. Her high-pitched chirps signaled to him that she was enjoying her time in the air.

As he watched his daughter, Beast boy couldn't help but feel a sense of nostalgia. He remembered learning how to fly himself. He wasn't granted the privilege of having someone teach him his powers. The way he learned was by watching the birds in the forests and many practices. Beast boy was happy to be here to teach Farah so that she didn't have to go through the hardships that he went through. He wanted to be here for his daughter. "Ok, Farah. You might want to slow down. You're going to get tired."

Farah continued flying in the air, ignoring her father's words. She liked the feeling of the air and being able to look down instead of looking up. It was so cool! How many four-year-olds do you know can fly?

Farah continued to flap her wings, but she started to slow down when she felt an uncomfortable stinging in her birdlike body. Slowly, the pain got worse and it seemed unbearable. Farah started to chirp again when she realized that she was starting to glide downward to the mat at a pace that was too fast for her to recover. She flailed her wings to gain wind, but it seemed useless. The pain was too much and her wings felt paralyzed.

Beast boy easily identified this dilema moments before and was already in a position to catch her in his hands with ease. Beast boy caught Farah then opened his cupped hands. He grinned softly at the stiff blonde sparrow. "I told you that you were going to get tired."

Slowly Farah transformed back to her human form, gasping for breath. "My arms hurt really bad." She wailed.

Beast boy chuckled. "Don't worry. The more you fly, the more you will build up your stamina."

Farah smiled. "I like flying. It's really fun. I'm going to do it every day!"

"You ready to practice some more?"

Farah took in a few more breaths before nodding her head.

3 hours later…

"Ok, daddy, this isn't fun anymore..."

Farah panted then flopped her body onto the gym mat. Her body ached all over, especially in her arms and her small brain was pounding from a headache she had. Her father made morphing seem so easy, but for her, it was becoming a bit difficult. After practicing so hard with her father, changing into small animals became almost effortless to her, but larger animals were what she struggled with. Once she got the hang of flying like she wanted, Beast boy requested she turn into horses, rhinos, hippos, but she simply couldn't. It was like her body would begin morphing into the animal then quickly revert back to her normal form as if there was a limit to how big her body could change.

"Come on, Farah. Are you sure you don't want to try one more time?" Beast boy loomed over Farah and lightly grabbed her arms to pull her back up onto her feet, but she groaned and kicked him away.

"No more." She whined.

"Beast boy, leave her alone. You can't expect her to turn into animals that big just yet." Raven entered the gym and lifted Farah from off the floor and into her arms. Farah leaned into her mother's touch then closed her eyes when fatigue finally consumed her tired body.

Beast boy frowned. "I know that she can do it."

Raven narrowed her eyes and shook her head. "You're putting too much on her. Look at her; she's exhausted." Raven turned, showing Farah's sleeping face. "Give it a rest. She'll tap her power's full potential when she's ready."

Beast boy opened his mouth to argue his point, but Raven quickly intercepted.

"How old were you when you transformed into the large animals that you want her to be?"

Beast boy quickly stopped what he was going to say. Raven was right. When he was a pre-teen, he still struggled to morph into big animals that were expected of him. But in his mind, he didn't think it was impossible. "I'll let her rest...but we're going to try again later."

Raven rolled her eyes then sighed. She thought it was great to see Beast boy and Farah bonding through their powers, but Farah is still young. She didn't appreciate Beast boy rushing and encouraging their young daughter with the idea of being involved in their dangerous battles.

Beast boy raised a brow at the sudden attitude. "What? What I do?"

Raven turn on her heels towards the exit with Farah still sleeping in her arms. "Nothing...Let's go."

Beast boy groaned and followed after his girlfriend. "I never get anything right." He muttered under his breath.

Raven pulled Farah's nightgown shirt over her head then pulled her blonde hair back in a loose ponytail.

"Can I have one more cookie before bed?"

"No. You had enough at dinner."

Farah pouted then climbed into her twin sized bed. Raven draped the covers over her body and gave a quick kiss. Farah smiled and stared as her mother turned lights off.

"Mommy, why isn't daddy putting me to bed? He always read me bedtime stories."

"He's playing a game with Cyborg. You'll see him in the morning."

Farah sat up. "I wanna' play with them. Why can't I stay up too?"

"Because you need your rest. Besides, your father and uncle would stay up all night if they could."

"I can stay up all night too," Farah whispered. She hated the fact that she had to go to bed yet the other Titans were up and still buzzing with life. Raven placed her to bed strictly at 9:00 PM. On weekends, she would go to bed anytime she wanted if Beast boy was able to successfully persuade Raven, but she would not stay up any longer than usual. 11:00 PM has been the longest she stayed up before passing out in someone's arms.

"Goodnight."

Farah whined when Raven closed the door to her bedroom. She sighed and stared at the starry decorated ceiling that was once Terra's. The stars in the ceiling held small lights that shone dimly as a night light for her. Cyborg customized it just for her, which made it special.

The toddler turned in her bed to stare out the windows. She yawned and continued glancing out at the waters. If she couldn't sleep, her resort would be to stare out into the bay until her eyes became too heavy to stay open.

Thirty minutes passed and Farah was still awake, but she was now very sleepy. She yawned again and rubbed her purple eyes. She snuggled onto her teddy bear even tighter and began closing her eyes to fall into slumber.

Before Farah could completely close her eyes, a dark figure slid across the window, casting a quick shadow as it moved. But just as it appeared, it was gone.

Farah gasped and her eyes widened immediately. She glanced around her large room anxiously then snuggled closer underneath her sheets. "I thought I saw something fly past the window." Farah thought.

Her body shook softly in fear and her heart was pounding faster than usual. Farah slowly closed her eyes again, trying to forget what she saw.

Slowly but surely, Farah's eyes closed and her breathing calmed as she started to drift into slumber. But of course, a loud tap on the glass drew her back into reality.

Farah opened her eyes then slowly turned her eyes to look out the glass. It the was the dark figure and this time, it didn't hide.

Farah stared. Her mouth opened slightly. She didn't know whether to scream or keep quiet. The silhouette of the figure was similar to a man. It held onto some form of rope as it leaned against the window for some form of support.

Slowly, Farah sat up straight in her bed. Her eyes didn't leave the figure at all. It was as if it was staring right back at her.

The figure started to move again, making Farah even tenser. Her heart was beating so hard that she could feel the fast rhythm in her throat. "I have to get out of here."

The unknown person placed both of its hands firmly against the window from the outside, causing a loud thumping noise...

Farah frantically fumbled out of bed once she heard the unsettling noise. She didn't know whether or not this person was here to simply torment or intentionally hurt her, but overall, she wasn't going to stay to find out.

Farah gasped and fought with her sheets to pull them away from her body. She fell to the floor hard then scurried to her feet as fast as she could. In seconds, she was out the door and running down the hallway.
