The Demoness Apprentice

3 Lashing Out

~Raven POV

Deep breaths. It will be okay.

Everything seemed to be falling apart.

I defeated my father, things should be getting better, not worse!

It doesn't even feel like I did anything beneficial- wait- I shouldn't say that... I saved the world-!

Right?

I was trapped with my own thoughts, fully aware meditation wouldn't do anything to help me, since my emotions were going haywire in my mind.

I could visit them.

Maybe if things get worse... I thought.

I slowly dozed off in my bed.

~NEXT DAY 4:00 AM

I woke up at my usual time, extremely early.

I started up the tea kettle, hearing the faint hissing.

I poured the tea into a small cup, and calmly drank it.

Everything was going to be alright, nothing weird is going to happen today.

"Morning Rav-"

*BOOOM!*

I swiftly turned around to see Robin, and this entire meal all over the floor, like it exploded.

".... Raven, are you okay? Normally you are able to sense my presence.." Robin said, concern plastering his expression.

"Fine, fine. I'm unsure on why my powers aren't cooperating, but it won't be an issue." I assured.

"If you say so." Robin replied as he cleaned up the mess.

"We have another training session today, don't we?" I sighed.

"We ALL do, yes." Robin stated.

I simply nodded, extremely not looking forward to it. I'm going to embarrass myself... Again.

~ Training Room

Thankfully, Robin felt merciful, and gave us all a training set, so I don't have to embrass myself Infront of my team again.

It wasn't all too bad.

... Was what I thought.

"Raven! Raven! Look at me, I can lift this 100 pounder, no problem!" BeastBoy grinned, as he tried to lift it in his human form, which he couldn't do.

He huffed and turned into a gorilla and lifted it easily, and Cyborg gave him a high-five, and tried it for himself with ease.

"Try it! You can do it!" BeastBoy encouraged.

"No." I swiftly responded.

"Come onnn! You can do it, I promise!" BeastBoy begged.

"I said, NO." I lashed out and my eyes flickered red for a moment and the weights got thrown across the room, destroying multiple things in its path.

I swore under my breath.

"Jeez - sorry." BeastBoy apologized and went to talk to Cyborg.

"Friend Raven, are you okay?" Starfire asked as she quickly held onto my hand and I pulled my hand away with a scowl.

Starfire frowned and floated away.

"Raven. Something is clearly wrong." Robin deadpanned.

"I'm fine." I replied.

"You-" Robin started but was interrupted by a glare from me.

"See you later." I teleported out of the room, awkwardly.

And this feeling that I was being watched, keeps getting worse!

Maybe going to sleep will help ...

Hopefully.
