"You all know what to do?" Robin asked the rest of his team. Or what was left of it anyway.

They all nodded morosely.

"Move out!" he whispered to his team.

They all started to more, but were stopped. Actually they were free to move, but Raven had shown up right in the middle of their expanded huddle.

"Hey guys." Raven said. "Surprised to see me?"

***

At first the titans were unsure as to what to do, but Robin gave an order to attack. They followed their leaders orders and tackled Raven. She didn't resist.

"Uh, why aren't you trying to destroy us?" Beast Boy asked when they realized she didn't do anything to stop them.

"Because I'm not evil." She replied.

"But you were just attacking us a little while ago. You know along with Terra."

"I was pretending." Raven said. They all looked at her quizzically. "I tricked them into thinking I was evil. It was the only way I could get rid of them for good."

"What?" Robin asked.

Raven explained how when she had been taken by the church of blood after running away, they had tried to control her, but they had failed. Her father would have never given them that power. She explained how she came up with a plan before they had given up. She would trick them to believing they had released her dark side, before they actually tried and fool them into believing she truly was evil. But in order to do that, she had to do something that the normal Raven would never do. Hurt her best friends. Once they believed her completely, she sent them on a wild goose chase that would hopefully keep them away for a very very long time.

"How do we know your telling the truth now? Why wouldn't you have told us before hand?" Cyborg asked.

"I couldn't tell you because I would have hesitated then and you wouldn't have convinced them. Besides, at what time could I have. They followed me everywhere."

"How about in the interrogation room?" Robin asked.

"I think they were listening." Raven replied. "I couldn't take any chances."

"How can we believe you now?" Robin asked. "How do we know you aren't just trying to fool us so you can kill us."

"Don't you think I would have done that already." Raven replied.

No one could think of an answer.

Beast Boy circled her, looking her up and down. He stopped in front of her. "Hmmm… good enough for me!" he said as he hugged her.

The other titans smiled and welcomed her back in their own little way before asking her billions of questions. After they had all been answered thoroughly, Robin, Cyborg, and Starfire, headed back inside to order pizza.

Once the others were gone, Beast Boy gave her another, smaller hug. "I knew you could never hate me." Beast Boy said as he sat by the water, giving her a great big smile.

Raven sat down next to him.

"Raven?" Beast Boy said questioningly.

"Yeah?" she replied looking back at him.

"I think I love you." he said staring at the water.

"I think I love you too." she replied.

They were silent for a long time.

"Raven?" Beast boy said facing her.

"What?" She asked.

"Can you close your eyes?"

Raven was hesitant, but finally did.

Beast Boy kissed her lightly on the lips before getting up and racing toward the tower. "First one in is a rotten egg!" Beast Boy yelled as Raven slowly followed.

"You mean last one in is a rotten egg…" Raven corrected. Beast Boy didn't hear.

Just another day at Titans Tower.

THE END (until Beast Boy caught swine flu...)
