  Rachel hated it when Damien stormed off. He was a just immature at times and it really turned her off. Sure she liked his rebellious spirit but it was too much some times and even somewhat annoying. Unlike Damien Rachel looked forward to spending time with the team it was her time to relax and be herself. Sometimes they became tedious and it bugged her but they were the only true friends she's ever had. They've even made new additions to the team, like Conner Kent super-mans clone and Miss Martian who is Martian man hunters niece. Kid flash hasn't been around in awhile though and as for the Conner and miss Martian they've taken up a romantic relationship and moved in together.

Weird right? Anyways the team continues the grow at an exponential rate. Raven wondered down the halls of the the titan tower aimlessly. She wore normal street clothes but she had her hair in a bun and she dawned large glasses. The frames were thick and black with clear semicircular lenses. She liked the glasses it made her seem ordinary. She wore a v neck t shirt and black leggings, her outfit was as basic as it could be. She began wondering about the new recruits and how quickly Conner and Megan (miss Martian) had a connection. It's like when they met they immediately knew they had a immediate understanding and attraction towards one another.

Megan was a little easier to talk to than starfire, she was a little more understanding to human customs because how much she studied them when she was on mars. Megan was also almost intolerably polite and optimistic, while Conner is dull and emotionless. Even so Rachel held a great deal of affection for the two. Besides beat boy Rachel has never had a significant other, but that never took off. For her it was always a matter of mutual understanding. She never understood beast boys child like attitude and behavior. It struck her as alien and discomforting but Damien however was a different story. Arrogant, calculated, dark, and blunt was just a few things she could think of.

Thinking of him made her insides flip as if she was gonna puke. She didn't know whether she was repulsed or infatuated with the thought of Damien, but if she had to guess she'd probably take the ladder. Rachel found her self wondering in the kitchen looking through the fridge. She wasn't hungry but for some reason it helped her think.

"Sorry no left over pizza!" A familiar voice came from behind. Raven turned around to see a large African American man covered in metal.

"Hey cyborg." Raven said nonchalant and grabbed a water from the fridge.

"You sound excited to see me."

"What do you want me to do, jump and down and scream like a child? I'm not surprised to see you victor your here every other day."

"Jeez who shit in your pentagram?"

"Huhhh, it's nothing I'm sorry."

"No problem, aye where's everyone at?"

"They all went out to celebrate Beatles birthday."

"Why didn't you go?" He said sitting down on one of the stools

"I've never been big on birthdays. People go out of there way to find things to celebrate even things they shouldn't." 

"Ummm okay, well do you know where they went to celebrate?"

"They went to that arcade slash pizza parlor next to the beach."

"Ight cool, is Damien there too?"

"What do you think?"
