Opposites Become Best Friends, Chapter 3 up!

[.BlueEyedBlonde.]

A/N: Yes! I have finally finished my first chapter, much to the delight of some of my fanfic fans here. Anywho, I want to warn you that this first chapter may be a bit alarming for most. It's scary and very dramatized...with a bit of RobxRae fluff thrown in cause I can't help myself. Please enjoy and remember to review. Oh and I want to remind you all : This is in the future somewhat, so Raven can feel most of the emotions that normal people can, just not too much, but more than she could before, kay??

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A tired, crying, twelve year old little girl lay in the huge white hospital bed. Doctors rushed around her, every once and a while poking needles into her arms, taking blood samples. It hurt but she couldn't do anything about it because her wrists and ankles were bound very tightly to the bed, giving her barely any room to move around.

"Please," she whimpered, "I wanna see my momma."

"Not right now, Erin," a nurse told her gently, "You can see your mom and dad in a little while."

"Where are they?" Erin sobbed, "I wanna see them! I'm scared!"

She began to frantically tug on the binding straps and the heart rate machine next to her began to beep loudly, voices ringing in Erin's head as her vision blurred. She blinked repeatedly to get her vision back but it only made her vision ten times worse. She screamed out in pain when a needle jabbed itself into her flesh, tears rolling down her face as she began to feel numb all over and light-headed.

Erin remembered feeling like this before and began to claw helplessly at conciousness but the anesthetic soon took her over and she was out. Her body fell limp back into the hospital bed and the nurse rushed out into the hallway to inform her parents of their daughter's condition.

"Is she okay?" Raven asked frantically as she rushed up to the nurse, Robin following closely behind her.

"I'm afraid she's not," the nurse shook her head sadly, "None of us have ever seen something like this. We had to put her down for the moment because she was frantic but it'll ease her suffering somewhat. Whatever's going on inside her head, it's weakening her mental state very rapidly and that could be fatal," she saw the pained and horrified expression on Raven's face, "I'm so sorry that there isn't anything we can do."

"Can I go in and see her?" Raven asked, tears burning her pretty purple eyes.

The nurse nodded and Raven rushed into the room, falling to her knees beside her daughter, clutching her head, sobbing very quietly.

"Don't worry, Erin," she kissed her daughter's hand gently, "We'll get you better, sweetie. I promise...I promise..."

Raven brushed the light purple hair from Erin's face, gazing at her closed eyes. She looked like a sleeping child; sweet and innocent. Raven kissed Erin's forehead and then left the room before she decided to cry more. Robin slipped an arm around her and the two walked down the hall together, Raven brushing away stray tears from her cheeks, trying to stay calm.

"What are we going to do, Robin?" Raven asked, "Erin's condition is uncurable and they think she's insane. How can you go insane at twelve?"

"Raven, unless we get full, in-depth proof that Erin is crazy, then I'm not buying it," Robin told her, "Doctors say things like this all the time but sometimes they aren't even true; it's just a prediction."

"I hope so. I can't bear to have them do this to her. I hurts so bad."

Robin gave her a reassuring squeeze, "Don't worry, Rae. I feel the same way too."

"Mr. And Mrs. Grayson?" a soft voice called from behind them.

The couple turned to see a petite nurse standing behind them, her hazel colored eyes filled with sorrow and grief for them.

"Doctor Hensfeld asked that I inform you that Erin will be staying overnight here," she said.

"But," Raven pulled from Robin, "She's fine. She just got a little upset, that's all."

"I'm so sorry, Mrs. Grayson, but that isn't my place to judge. She has destroyed innocent lives and it's not safe out there for her. She may cause damage to herself as well."

Tears welled up in Raven's eyes as she tried to comprehend this information.

"Alright," Raven said nodding slightly, pursing her lips together, "Alright."

The small nurse gave her a sympathetic look and then turned to walk the other way towards Erin's room.

"C'mere, Rae," Robin took her in his arms and let her cry.

"Please tell me this isn't happening, Robin. Please tell me it's a dream," Raven cried, tears streaming down her face.

"I wish I could, Rae," Robin rubbed her back, "I really wish I could."

"My baby's not crazy," Raven whispered, her head on Robin's shoulder, "She's not crazy..."

Robin kissed her head and held her in his arms, trying to cease her pain or try to help it as best he could. He hated seeing Raven like this and it broke his heart to know she was so sad inside.

Robin knew that his daughter was NOT crazy and until they got him cold hard facts of it, he was not going to admit it. No one in that hospital was going to tell him that his twelve year old daughter had drove herself insane to the point of having to stay in a hospital to keep her under control. It was just too sudden and Robin was not going to stand for it, until they had facts.

He squeezed Raven gently to let her know everything was going to work out okay in the end. Erin was NOT crazy and he was going to make sure of that.

Yay for fan fiction!! And now I am sad for Erin! I am so confused as to what is happening that I don't know what to do!!

Update this as soon as you can!!!

[.BlueEyedBlonde.]

It's okay, Krisa-chan. Basically, the doctors all think that Erin is crazy, which is why they're at the hospitcal right now.

Right now, Erin's going through what I'd like to call as 'Pre-Birthmark' (XD), which means she's showing signs of Trigon being in her. That's why the doctors think she's insane because the Titans didn't take Raven to the doctors when Trigon was trying to come out of her.

I really hope that made some sense.

[.BlueEyedBlonde.]

I am and just so everone knows, I'm going to alternate it between Erin and Andrea until they have to team up and save the world. So the next chapter will be about Andrea and what she's up to while all this is happening.

[Krisa676]

Cool!! ^__^ I can't wait for it!

[.BlueEyedBlonde.]

OMG HERE IT IS!!! I finished it!! Enjoy everyone....

Andrea grabbed her sponge and dunked it into the soapy water, spreading it over the windsheild of the car. The music was blasting and everyone was washing cars...for the most part, of course.

"C'mon you guys," Andrea said, wipping the sweat from her forehead, "Are you guys gunna help or loiter? We have customers waiting."

The group of three boys she was repremanding skateboarded off and Andrea sighed in annoyance, getting back to the car she was washing. She had been waiting ages for this day and if their drama club earned enough money from their car washing buisness, they could finally back a huge production that Andrea wanted the lead for VERY badly.

"Need some help?" a boy came over to her car with a soapy sponge of his own.

"Thanks, Dan," Andrea grinned as he went on the other side and began washing that side of the car.

"No prob, Andrea," Dan grinned back at her, making Andrea blush and continue washing, trying to avoid further embarrassment.

"So...what are you doin' here?" Andrea asked, trying to make small talk, "You don't even like acting that much."

"Actually, Andrea, I like it alot. It's you I thought didn't like it," Dan said.

Andrea's eyebrows rose in surprise, "Seriously? You really thought that?"

"Yeah."

"Wow...I love to act. I think it's alot of fun," Andrea shrugged.

"Yeah, me too."

"Really?" Andrea was thrilled, "That's awesome! I bet you want the lead part, huh?"

"Yeah I do. Do you know what production we're actually gonna do?"

"Yeah, Miss Kractin said we were going to perform Romeo and Juliet. When we get enough money, she said I could be Juliet," Andrea said proudly.

"Really? I'm going to try out for Romeo," Dan smiled and Andrea blushed, "You know, if I get the part, you and I have to kiss."

"Yeah, I know. It'd be my first kiss on stage, though. I'm already nervous just thinking about it now."

"You'll be awesome up there, though. You're already a great actress."

"Thanks," Andrea blushed again.

Finally, after everyone's hands were pruned up and the cars were all given the works, the drama team assembled to discuss if they'd made enough money to make a production as big as Romeo and Juliet.

"Alright guys," Miss Kractin said.

She was a 25 year old lady with long black hair and astonishing gray eyes. She was a great actress and taught them much about performing on stage.

"Did we make it?" a girl asked.

"Well," Miss Kractin said, holding the money in her hand, which was neatly folded, "We have enough money for the show AND for realistic scenery, costumes and props!!"

The team cheered and high-fived one another. Andrea felt her heart soar when she heard that, not being able to breath.

"And, and," Miss Kractin said over the roar, "Andrea and Daniel will be our Romeo and Juliet of the show!"

Everyone gave an 'Ooohhh' at them and Andrea and Dan blushed like mad, looking at each other sheepishly.

"See everyone next week and good work today!" Miss Kractin said.

Andrea grabbed her bow, that was lying in the grass on the far side of the concrete parking lot, and began towards the street to walk home.

"Hey, Andrea!" Dan called after her.

Andrea turned and smiled, "What's up?"

"I just wanted to wish you good luck in the show. I know you'll do great," he said and gave her a small kiss on the cheek.

Andrea watched him run off and smiled, her cheeks slightly red. She turned on her heel and walked down the road, thinking about the kiss he'd just given her. What did it mean? Did it mean something other than good luck? Should she be nervous?

She pushed open her front door and slumped down on the couch next to her father, cuddling up to him.

"Hi baby. How was car washing?" Beast Boy asked, wrapping an arm around her shoulders.

"It was wet," Andrea said bluntly, making him laugh, "Listen, dad, I need to ask you something about this boy at school."

Beast Boy went white in the face, "TERRA!!" he called and scrambled away, already knowing that he'd be no help to her.

"What's wrong, Andrea? Why'd your father run off like that? Did you do something?" Terra asked, sitting next to her.

"I need some help with this guy at school," Andrea said.

"I see," Terra smiled, "Well, I'm glad he called me instead of trying to deal with it himself. You know how he gets."

Andrea grinned, giggling, "Okay, well, there's this boy Dan at my school. When I was about to walk home today, he told me good luck and kissed me on the cheek. What does that mean?"

Terra smiled slightly, "Andrea, sweetie, I can't tell you what boys' intentions are at this age. Your only twelve; you have tons of time to think about boys when your older."

"But what about you and dad? You guys were young too."

"That's because we were together for most of the day. You and Dan aren't, so it's different."

"But I do like him, mom. Me and him get along good and stuff."

"I'll leave that for you to judge. Just follow your heart, okay sweetie?"

"Kay, mom. Thanks."

Terra kissed Andrea's forehead, "I baked peanut butter cookies this afternoon. Wanna try one?"

Andrea's eyes lit up, "Yeah I do! They're the best!"

She followed her mother to the kitchen, grabbed a huge cookie and munched on it, licking the crumbs from her lips.

"Yum! This is delicious!"

"Well, you can't have any more," Terra said, putting cerane wrap over the huge plate.

"Why not?"

"They're for Robin and Raven. This is a hard time for them and I decided to be a good friend and help them out."

"But mom!" Andrea sat down at the table, "I don't even like Erin, let alone wanna see her!"

"Andrea, we're going over and you're going to see her. I don't want you two putting off another fireworks display like you did the last time. Do I make myself clear?"

"Yes, ma'am," Andrea said, feeling guiltly.

"Alright. Now go get changed. We're leaving in a little bit."

"Whatever," Andrea mumbled and got up from the table, trudging up the stairs to her room.

She slammed the door shut when she got there and slumped against the back of it, sighing. Erin and her weren't even friends. Why did her parents insist she go with them all the time? If they were all such good friends, why didn't they just leave her at home?

Andrea sighed again and fell on her bed. Erin didn't even understand the things she was going through at school, let alone care. Andrea knew that Erin was in the hospital because of her odd behavior and that made Andrea feel a bit sad because of that. She knew it would suck to not be able to see her parents and be locked in some weird place she didn't know.

Andrea just wished that, somehow, something would happen and have them become friends to stop it. What Andrea didn't know was that she would be getting her wish VERY soon.
