Robin's POV:

Raven came out of her room today, but didn't speak. She made her tea, and sat down right in the middle of us without saying a word.

It's really uncomfortable. We all are uncomfortable, except (seemingly) Raven. We had the TV on the news and she just watched and listened.

"Um, Hi Raven." Beast Boy tried to break the ice.
"Hello." She said. Well it sort of worked.
"Friend Raven will you be joining us in the park at the o's of the clock in the afternoon around 3?" Star asked.

"Sure." Raven answered and continued watching the news. Nobody said anything. Raven just stared blankly at the screen. I looked closer (with my eyes) at her face. She had lines in between her eyebrows. She's slightly straining about something. But they she's good at hiding stuff like that.

I won't say anything about it unless she does. I don't want to make her angry. For multiple reasons.

"Well, it's time for the T-Car's weekly check again. You want to help me Raven?" Cyborg asked. Raven looked at him and then darted her eyes away from him, but he head was still facing him.

"No." She said plainly. Then she turned back to the TV.

"No?! Alright Raven! The jig is up! You always want to help with the T-Car. What's the problem?" Cyborg burst out.

"Cy-" I dragged out but Raven cut me off.
"I just don't want to."

Cyborg looks sad now.

"Are you sure Raven? Last chance!" He threatened. Raven didn't even say anything this time. She just stared blankly at her tea cup. Then the crime alarm went off.

"It's Cinderblock." I said. "He's literally tearing up the road near the train station."

"Does this guy have anything better to do?" Beast Boy asked. I ignored him.

"Titans GO!" We all rushed out...including Raven. "Hey Raven, are you sure you want to go?" She just nodded and headed out the door. I followed suit.

When we got there he wasn't just destroying the streets, he was eating them. What does he not have anything to do on a Saturday?

"Dude! That's worse than Cy's meat! Was brunch not enough for him? There are better foods Bro!" Beast boy yelled at Cinderblock which got his attention. He ran at us and we all split up.

"Beast Boy! Go!" I yelled. He turned into a mouse and jumped on Cinderblock and ran all around his body. As he tried to grab him I threw flash disks at him, temporarily blurring up his vision.

Then Star threw a barrage of starbolts at him. When the smoke cleared...he's still standing there.

Beast Boy changed back into a human.

"I know this guy is made of rock but he wasn't this tough before." Beast Boy stated.

"My turn." Raven said. She flew up to him. "Azarath Metrion Zinthos!" She enclosed him in a sphere made of her dark energy.

He's getting smaller. And smaller, and smaller...Now he looks like a rock. He is a rock!

Raven condensed him into a little pebble. Since when can she do that?!

"...what just happened?" Cyborg asked.
"Friends, the Cinderblock is...a pebble?"
"Since when can Raven do that? Since when can you do that?!" Beast Boy asked. Raven had her back to us. She looked at her hands.
