"That's enough Damian," Dick said as he tried to get close to Damian. They're in the training room. Raven left two days ago. Ever since that day Damian did nothing except for training and locking himself in his room. He's been letting all his pain and anger out in the training room. Kori walks towards Dick and observed Damian. She sighed. "He won't move on anytime soon," Dick said while crossing his arms. Kori looked away, she felt guilty for letting Raven go. She formed her hand into a fist. "We'll have a meeting. Gather at the common room in ten." Kori said as she walked away from the training room. Dick once again looked at Damian with worried eyes. He sighed and walked towards the computer and turned it off. Damian looked at Dick with anger and irritation in his eyes. "Clean yourself. There's going to be a meeting. Meet you at the common room in ten." He said as he throws a towel at Damian.Damian wiped his sweat and take a shower. While in the shower he can't help but cry. He missed her. He still can't believe that she's gone. After four years finally, they become together. He remembers all the sweet times they got together. Their anniversary. He turned off the shower and dry himself and wears comfortable clothes. Once he gets out of his bathroom he can't help but observe every corner of his room. Where they spend most of their time together. He smiled bitterly and walked out of his room.
Once he gets to the common room everyone's there except for him. As he walks across the common room everyone was looking at him, worried and concerned. But he didn't mind them. His mind is so blank right now to think about them. When he sits beside Conner Kori started to talk. "As you know that Raven left the team for the last two days. And I've never really got to tell you the reason why." She paused for a moment and glanced at Damian. "It's a personal issue. Honestly, she didn't tell me the whole thing either--" "And you let her go?" Kori was cut when Damian suddenly speaks. He looked at her in the eyes. "You're the leader. You're her friend! Why didn't you stopped her from leaving? Why did you let her leave?!" He yelled at her. Kori looked away and didn't answer. The other Titans were used to seeing Damian mad and grumpy but this time is different. All his anger is the result of the pain from their break up. "Why can't you answer?" He said as he walked towards Kori but Dick and the others stopped him. "Damian stand down," Dick said. "No. You have every right to be mad at me. I should have stopped her. I was a fool." Kori said as she closed her eyes and lowered her face. Hearing this made Damian calm so the other titans let him go. He walked towards her and held one of her hands. "Then it's not too late. We can still find her." He said as a tear escaped his eye. Kori looked away from him. She wanted to, she wanted to go and find Raven. But she remembered the promise. That freaking promise. "I'm sorry Damian but I can't." She said as she walked away. Damian just stands there, he didn't bother to follow her and beg for their help. Cause he knew that they wouldn't. But he isn't convinced of what Kori said.
He knew that she's still awake. He knocked on her door. And when it opened he gave her a blank expression. "I need answers." He demanded. Kori sighed and welcomed Damian. As she leads her inside her room she can't help but be nervous. She offered him a seat. "You know what I came here for and I am not leaving until you gave me the answers that I want," Damian said as he sits. Kori prepared them for some drinks. When she takes a seat she sighed before she talked. "I-I promised Raven that I won't tell this to anyone. Whatever happens, but you deserve to know." Damian remained silent. "Her father... Trigon. He's been hunting her in her sleep. Threatened to kill us all if Raven won't free him. Raven planned to take him down by herself. I tried to stop her, believe me. I treated her like my little sister. And I don't want to lose her. She doesn't want us to get hurt. She-" "She doesn't trust us." Damian cuts her. "She doesn't trust us enough." "She's trying to protect us!" "No! She's selfish." Damian said as he walked out of Kori's room with anger visible on his eyes. Kori throws herself on her sofa. But he's right though, together we might have a chance on taking Trigon down.
As soon as he closed his door he let out all of the pain and anger by punching the walls of his room. Tears start to come out from his eyes. He was paused when he saw Titus at his feet with its ears down. Damian sits on the floor and pets Titus. Raven gave Titus to him when they were fifteen. That's when he started to have feelings for her. He was denial at first. But when they were seventeen he confessed to Raven at the rooftop of the Titans tower. Luckily she also feels the same for him. He couldn't be happier that day. But sadly, the place where it all started is also the place where it all ended. He loved her so much, she's the most beautiful thing that ever happened to him. He let himself cry, and he never gets tired of it. He doesn't even know what the source of his tears was. All he knows is that pain and anger are ruling him. Pain because of the breakup. And anger because of the fact that she didn't trust them enough to let them fight alongside her and not telling him the things that happened to her, she just flew away without saying a word.
After a week. When he came to his room with a huge box he started to gather all the things that remind him of Raven. All their pictures, gifts, and everything. After this, he looked around his room. It didn't work, he wants to move on and forget her. He glanced at the box and Titus. He formed his hand into a fist and head straight to the common room.
When he gets there he saw Dick and Kori reviewing some files. When they noticed his presence they immediately dropped the papers to pay attention to the Robin. "How you've been?" Dick asked him. Damian just shrugged and walked closer to them. "Do you need something Damian?" Kori asked him too. Damian lowered his head and tapped his right foot. "I'm moving back to Gotham City." He simply answered. Kori and Dick were not that surprised because they knew that this day would come. Kori stands up and walked towards him. She puts both of her hands to both of his shoulders. "Okay... We'll give you the time you need to clear your mind." She simply said with a calm voice. "If ever you wanted to come back. You are always welcome." She said as Dick walked towards them. "When you need help... You know who to call."
