They couldn't believe it. It's been a whole year since one of the titans went missing. Today is the one year mark since that day.

"Robin, I'm going out. I just need to get my mind off things."

"Okay, but don't do anything you will regret. I know it's a bad day but we will have to go on."

He nodded. He walked to his room to grab his supplies. He grabbed a lighter and under his pillow he grabbed his half empty pack of cigarettes. He didn't dress in his uniform. He put on a pair of jeans, a red t-shirt and a black jacket. Before he left, he looked in the tall mirror he had in his room. He looked at his green skin and hair. He noticed how tall he's gotten in the past year. He signed and wiped a tear falling down his face. He couldn't get his mind off of Raven. The cigarettes helped, but not enough. He couldn't help but to think what happened to her.

He walked out of the door and turned into an eagle and flew to his favorite spot. There was a storage building right down near the docks he hid behind. He was only 17 so he had to hide to make sure nobody caught him with cigarettes. He landed and sat, leaning his back against the cool metal wall. He looked down the docks and watched the waves of the sea crash. The sky was a pink color and the sun was a bright Orange. He took one of his cigarettes and popped it in his mouth. He took the lighter and lit the end and inhaled the sweet smoke into his lungs.
"Raven, where did you go?" He thought to himself.
One tear slid down his cheek but he quickly wiped it away and took a puff of his cigarette once again. He took the end of the cigarette and rubbed the end of it into the ground and sat it down. He took a deep breath and stood up.
He was about to leave when he heard something coming from inside the storage building. His ears twitched at the sound. He smelled the air and it smelled like lavender. "Raven!" Was all he thought. He tried to open the doors, but they were locked. He turned into a gorilla a lifted the door. He turned back into his human form and crawled in the crack he left. When he walked in it was dark and cold. At least a couple degrees colder than outside. He put his hood up. He took his lighter out and lit a little flame to see. When he did he looked in the corner of the building and he saw someone. He walked up closer and he gasped He dropped his lighter in shock and the flame went out. He knelt down and picked it up and lit it again and he saw her. Her now long violet hair, her torn leotard that showed her stomach and her upper back. She was huddled in the corner with her knees up to her chest. She had cuts all down her arms and she had a large scar down her back. Her head lifted from her knees and she looked at him in fear. He looked at her violent eyes. They were bloodshot. She pressed her back into the corner trying to get away. He took his hood down.
" Raven?"
