The teenager stayed in Titans Tower. It wasn't like she could afford anywhere else. Being a hero didn't get a lot of pay and being a student deducted that more than once. As a Titan they had been sponsored, money had come in. That was no longer the case for Raven. That was not the reason she was trying to get the Titans back together, she wanted to protect the earth. As far as she was aware the most pressing issues was what she feared most; the demonis side within her. Raven could feel her emotions brewing, a sure sign that her darker side was threatening to break free. Which was why Raven meditated for a full hour before teleporting into school.

She wore black trousers that hung down low at the waist and a jumper, with one side hanging loosly off her shoulder. That was a dark blue, colours like red hurt her eyes, although the red chakra remained on her forehead. A necklace hung around her neck with an ankh pendant. The emotional climate hit the teenager as she entered the building. The popular girls hated her already, despite the fact that Raven was new to this school. Hopefully this time she would't have to fight to save the lives of the students. Danger just seemed to be attracted to the half demon. Moving into her seat, Raven took out her books and waited for the teacher. She came in and the lesson started but scarely ten minutes into the lesson something strange happened.

The teacher stopped teaching and started to be like a child. An emotional wave of change flitted through Raven. The teenager frowned as the class began to loose control. Most people didn't want to be here and saw their chance to escape. One worried student was calling her parents, two others talking to the teacher. Great Raven thought, walking outside, it was not an isolated incident. As soon as she had left the building she saw the streets full of adults who now acted like children.
"This is bad."

[/b] Raven said, indigo eyes looking at the cars that adults had been driving.

Teleporting back to Titans Tower, the girl changed into her costume, pulling the hood over her face. Eyes flickered to the pendant that lay on the table. The teenager wondered if she may need help. Someone who could affect the whole city, turn the adults' minds to that of children. Raven was not a master of magic; sorcery was something she studied and could use, but not her primary weapon. So she tried a spell to call the only other magic user she felt safe to contact: Doctor Fate.

Trying the spell as best she could, Raven left a small message to the Lord of Order, hoping that it would get through.
"Doctor Fate, this is Raven. San Francsico's adult population has had their minds reverted to that of children. I have no idea how. I'm going to try and confront who-ever it is. Might be out of my league so if I fail then the people may need someone else to protect them from this danger. And if things go worse than expected, if my father claims me, do not be afraid to kill me."[/b] Raven said, her voice not faltering. Raven was aware that if emotion took her, then she was weakened against her father, who may take control.

With that done, Raven teleported into the centre of the city, the cloaked Titan easily hovering above the ground by several metres. She was ready for the conflict. Adults pointed up at her, some wanting hugs, others wanting her to play and Raven crinchedat the thought that the city might remain like this. The Titan would protect children and understood that they were more vulnerable but she didn't know how to look after them. So far she had seen no sign of the enemy who had caused this, so Raven decided to show that there was someone ready to defend this town. Raven let her soul self embrace her, a giant black raven raising above the city, wings out spread before it settled back into the form of the eighteen year old girl. [/blockquote][/div]

Up until that time, it had been a normal day in the City By The Bay. People were going about their business as usual. But normal always turned to unusual and down right chaotic when Gorilla Grodd showed up in a city. Along with making people his loyal servants, he also loved watching the species known as Homo Sapiens act like fools for his entertainment. Taking over the city was the primary plan, but for now, Grodd was going to have some fun.

Stationed on the balcony on an uninhabited apartment, he aimed his latest mind-altering weapon at the masses. Though shaped like a bazooka, it was hardly a lethal threat. But in a lot of ways, what it did was much worse. Aiming at a busy street, he smirked and chuckled a bit.

"Such over-worked simpletons," he said. "I believe it's time for them to engage in some well-deserved play time." Firing the gun, he sent out the mind control waves, and in seconds, schoolyard chaos ensued.

A couple seemed to be arguing in the street, but not over bills or what to do about dinner. They were arguing over ice cream.

"Nuh-huh!" said the husband. "This my ice cweam cone. You can't haz it! Get your own!"

"I can't!" she said. "You haz all the ice cweam money! Give it!"

A policeman then ran over to them, blowing his whistle.

"Stop it, you both!" he protested. "Or I'm gonna tell!"

This began happening everywhere, and at a wider range. Grown men and women were either playing patty-cake and kickball or arguing over pointless things and having slap-fights.

Up above, Grodd waited for his moment to play the role of parent and use the "children" to work his will.
