Teen Titans Fan Fiction ❯ Family ❯ Curtain ( Chapter 16 )

Curtain

Raven groaned in pain, steadying herself against the wall.

(She'd been feeling sick all day.)

She wondered if she was going to be sick all over the floor.

(Just last week it'd taken abuse from a child who'd eaten too much sugar.)

Her hand touched cloth then glass and she jumped.

(A window, she sighed.)

('I'm so paranoid.')

She gripped the curtain for support for a moment, letting the pain pass.

(Pain was not good.)

It was receding.

(Thankfully.)

She sighed in releif.

('Thank God.')

Then...

(Like the wind had been knocked out of her.)

She stumbled, still gripping the curtain.

('Ow...')

She fell back.

(Maybe it ripped.)

And the curtain fell with her.

Dark. Damn it! I've started another arc. Oh well.
