Now the story picks up speed, speed in updates

I hope.

"Seriously where are we go- oh, why are we here?" Raven asked the overly happy Rorek as they approached the door to Z's Library. Rorek was too busy looking at the door. "Sigh, I would think a man like you would have a bit more restraint to diving into book-" Raven paused as she noticed the handle was on the right side rather than left. She thought little of it and opened it much the same she did the first time.

As they walked through the tunnel Rorek had an almost stupidly happy face one, even though his mask. "I didn't think you'd be this happy. Or is this because Z isn't here?" Raven tried to question. Rorek however still kept looking straight ahead.

"If I'm happy I wonder how you'll feel." He finally turned to her and said as they approached the end of the hall.

"What is that sup-"

"Rachel?" The voice, soft and gentle stopped Raven's mind, made her heart skip a beat. Slowly she turned her head. The library wasn't there but instead was a simple room,

With her mother.

"M-mother?" Raven could not believe it. She simply could not. Things like this did not happen. Sure everyone dreamed and every soap showed scenes like this, but they just did not happen!

It was happening. As Raven's mind gave way to emotion it agreed with her heart. It made sense, Rorek's first name slip-up, his mission, the big surprise, all the beating round the bush, Rorek's overly stupid smile!

Angela's eyes formed tears and her arms opened wide. Raven could contain it no longer as she rushed in with tears of her own.

And the two embraced.

Rorek took a deep breath as he leaned on the wall, crossed his arms and watched. He wasn't as young as his form showed and he nearly dammed ripped apart his soul to accomplish this but… He would do it a million times over to see something like this. He turned to leave only to came face-to-face with a smirking Z.

"Think you could steal this sight from the rest of us? I think not Rorek of Null." Z smiled proudly as everyone else was packed along the wall. The only ones not in complete happy tears where Zor, Dean, and Z. Even big old Groom, with his stern face of stone was betrayed by the water in his eyes. Star was nearly making a puddle of water as Cyborg was trying his upmost to be manly and not cry, failing, but trying. Robin was much like Groom but still failing all the same. Beast boy was busy completely snooting up his shirt. Despite waterless eyes, Dean and Zor where still smiling all the same.

Like a scolded child Rorek looked low.

"Pardon it was not my intention too, but-"

"Save it you emotional wizard, let's go." Z cut him off by pinching his ear like a mother. "Come everyone, let them have their moment. Shoo!" Z pressured the group back.

Not having heard any of that, Mother and daughter finally broke the hug long enough to get a good look at each other.

"My how you have grown."Angela said brushing a hair out of Raven's face.

"O-oh please." Raven tried a normal tone, failing by a sniff. "Can we n, sniff, not be cliché?" Angela smiled at her child.

"You'll have to forgive me, I'm an old fashion woman." She said as she put her forhead to Raven's.

The two stayed like that for a time longer. Finally they both took a seat and the well-cushioned couch. Only couch in the simple-yet-soothing room. A bed, desk, closet, well as a window finished off the room. Finishing the tea, Angela poured a cup.

"I'm sorry the other one is here somewhere but do you mine sharing?" Angela

"N-not at all!" Raven responded as she took the first sip of the offered cup. "Hey this is Dean's recipe." Raven noted and to which Angela denied quickly,

"It sure isn't! He got it from me and don't you forget it!" she announced with a playful wave of her finger.

"It's delicious." Raven backstepped. Angela smiled back

"Thank you, it means much to hear that from you." She leaned into Raven as Raven leaned into her.

Another pause

"Mother…I…I" Raven started not really knowing where to start,

"I felt it you know." Angela interrupted

"Felt, what?"

"When he died."Angela finished

"Oh…" Raven put the tea down.

Another pause

Angela hugged Raven tight,

"You did a good thing. A good thing."Angela assured which Raven needed more than she realized.

"Mother…you helped me at the end…didn't you?" Raven recalled the white light. Angela however shook her head,

"Rachel all I have done is given you my love, it was the only thing I could give. What you did, that power that appeared was all from within you." Angela hugged Raven tight and brushed her hair, "I'm so proud of you, my little girl."

"Mother…" Raven let herself sink into the embrace once again.

Some more time later and what was a tunnel was now a door, to which a knock came.

"Lady Angela it's me." Said Z's voice

"Come in Zy'ezara." Angela replied

'Zy'ezara' Raven noted to herself in her head. Z walked in and closed the door behind her.

"You know you don't have to call me 'lady' you are after all older than me." Angela

"Owch. What did I do to deserve that?" Z responded

"You didn't bring me my daughter as soon as she arrived for one!" Angela Z shrugged in surrenderance.

"There is just no beating you Angela." Z sat upon the desk.

"What brings you to my little hole?" Angela asked

"You know we could make it bigger, the males I mean, could make your room bigger." Z offered

"Thanks but I like it as is." Angela answered. Z shrugged again,

"If you say so. I'm here to warn you of your guest before the males knock the door down.

"Oh goodness they're all trying to esdrop aren't they?" Angela said with a slight giggle.

"You know males. Good luck with the spell on the door however." Z giggled back.

"Who's all here?" Raven finally spoke up.

"Oh all your friends mostly, there's Groom and Rorek as well." Z answered

"Oh my, sir Groom as well?"Angela questioned, Z nodded

"Everyone who saw your embrace." Z smirked which got the desired response of making Raven blush. Raven pulled up her hood. Angela pulled it back down with a smile.

"Come on in." Angela said and the door all but burst open as a neat dog pile of her friends fell in.

Z and Angela giggled, Raven however frowned,

"Really guys?" Raven said in classic face-palm fashion.

With a tad of magic Groom managed to squeeze in and raise spots of the floor to make for seats. To which he of course promised Angela he would fix on the way out. Once everyone was situated Star, as usual, was the first to break the silence.

"Oh I can contain my excitement no longer!" She all but flew to Raven and gave her a Starfire class hug. "Oh joyous day! I am so happy for you friend Raven!" Star released Raven long enough to go and happily clasp Angela's hand. "I've long wanted to meet you dear Raven's mother!Whatisyourname?MineisStarfire,that' ?Canwedothe'girltalklater?" Star said within a breath

"My you're a cheerful one. I am Angela. Although many here still, annoyingly I might add," as she glanced to Z, Groom, and Rorek, "call me Lady Angela." she then turned to the rest, "The pleasure is all mine. I can't tell you how blessed I am to know my daughter has been in the company of such kindhearted friends." She gave them a slight bow from her seat

"Mother..." Raven fidgeted like a young child.

Robin held up hand, "Not at all! We're honored to meet you Lady Angela!"

"Please...Robin was it? just Angela. You'll make me feel like an old lady." Angela smiled

"Oh sorry, just your daughter has been a great help! And an even better friend, we're happy to have her as part of the team!" Robin said proudly. Raven had looked to the side, happy to hear such words.

"This...team. What do you do?" Angela asked the masked leader

"Oh well..." Robin pulled at his collar, somehow 'we take your daughter with us to fight supervillans and monsters' didn't seem to work well.

"Dude backpeddle, backpeddle!" Cy leaned over with a whisper.

"Come now, we're also quite interested. In this...what was it Rorek?" Groom asked,

"The Team of Titans." Rorek replied

"Yes, this Titan Team of yours. Tell us, what is it like from your world?" Groom posed and all the wizards in the room had eyes on Robin. Raven included, she well the entire team, was looking to see what he'd say.

Seeing as Robin was at an end Angela soothed,

"I trust the wizards have told you about the time effect of this place. If it is a long tale we do have the time." She lean forward to look Robin straight in the ey...the mask. "Please when did you meet my daughter?"

Robin couldn't squeeze away from that look,

"Well it all started when Star here came to earth, Raven stopped us from..."
