This is the sequel to Forever Fighting. I recommend you read that first, but if you don't want to here is a quick summary: (For those who read the Forever Fighting, skip the words in italics!)
Slade was thought to have been defeated. The Titans split up and moved on to there own lives. Raven got a boyfriend, Darien. Terra was still in jail after her second betrayal. Cyborg married an old friend from high school, Crystal. They adopted two kids. Robin joined the police force after he finished school. Starfire went to Tamerian for a few years. Beast Boy just disappeared after he quit the team. Beast Boy tracked down Raven 6 years later to tell her the titans were being attacked by a Lex Luthor. Star and Aqualad already got caught. Robin, now known as Nightwing, reported he was being followed. Raven ignored his comments thinking she was safe until Darien came home from work to tell her he was offered a better job after showing a Mr. L. Luthor. Raven called Beast Boy, now calling him Garfield, and he picked up her, her sister Arista and Darien and took them to Victors house.
They drove in silence until they pulled up to a small square house. From the outside, the house was tall, square, with a door in the center and four window, two on the bottom and two on the top.
Garfield got out of the car first to walk up to the door. Raven was close behind him, holding Arista's hand and pulling Darien by the shirt. A young fair skinned girl answered the door. She had short curly brown hair to the middle of her neck,
"Hello Mr. Logan. My mommy is in the living room. Are you going to tell me a bedtime story again tonight? Daddy is no good at them" The little girl said.
"Mommy? Daddy?" Raven whispered to Gar.
"That is Vic and Crystals adopted daughter. Her name is Genevieve (A/N Prononced: jen-nuh-veev)."
Genevieve took Gar's hand and led her to the house. "I made an art project in school today. Do you want to see it? I drew an elephant!" She said, bring them into the main hall before she suddenly stopped. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Ravens mind was in awe that a girl so small could make such an earsplitting scream. "WHAT IS WRONG WITH HER?" Raven yelled over the screaming.
"I DON'T KNOW!" Gar yelled back. Crystal came into the room with a gun in hand, Victor close behind. "Ginny whats wrong?" Cyborg asked seeing Gar (who was blocking view of Raven, Darien and Arista).
"Daddy! I didn't mean to! I let the strangers in the house! I'm sorry." The little girl cried running to Victor's arms.
"Its only Mr. Logan… no need to cry, " Victor said bouncing her slightly in his arms to pacify her.
"Not Mr. Logan daddy, the strange ladys and the funny guy behind him," Genevieve cried.
"Gar, step aside now. I mean it, I'm going to shoot," Crystal said.
"Crystal calm down, its Rae. She's all grown up," Gar said with a smirk. Raven glared at him for a moment before turning to Crystal.
"It's me. You remember Arista? And this is my boyfriend, Darien," Raven said to help pacify her.
Crystal lowered the gun. "I'm sorry, can't be too safe these days…" Crystal returned the gun to its pocket clipped onto the side of her pants.
Genevieve calmed down quickly, and went back to talking to Gar.
"And then I drew a big butterfly on my paper! Only this meanie head next to me said my butterfly was too ugly! So I punched her in the nose really hard like this".
Genevieve punched Gars leg as hard as she could, and Gar smiled at her attempt to hurt someone, "Ouch, you got a hard punch there squirt. And no more Mr. Logan. Gar! Come on, I've been telling your pops to stop enforcing the 'be respectful thing' with me. I'm a bud, right squirt?" Gar laughed and Vic shook his head before stepping forward to embrace Raven.
"Rae… wow look at you all grown up," Victor smiled at his sister-like friend.
"I wasn't that young when we all split up…" Raven said shyly.
"OKAY! I WANT TO KNOW WHAT THE HE-"
"Children in the room" Raven said quickly.
"-XAGONS IS GOING ON HERE!" Darien yelled.
"Hexagons…. Nice cover…" Gar laughed.
"Seriously, what is going on? I've gotten no answers this whole night. I think I have a right to know," Darien said angrily.
"Ginny, get your brother, both of you should go play upstairs," Crystal said, motioning towards the door.
As Crystal took her adopted children up to bed, Victor led Raven, Gar, Darien and Arista into the living room. Once they were all comfortable, Darien began to demand to know that is going on again.
"Darien… when I was about younger, I was part of a team known as the Teen Titans. A team of superheroes. Someone is now going after all of the old members. You could be in danger too," Raven said slowly.
Darien paused for a minute, "You couldn't be a superhero… you have no powers".
Raven held up her hand and lifted the coffee table in front of them a few inches above the ground with her powers.
"Shit… how'd you do that?" Dairen said eyes wide with awe.
"My powers, Darien I'm sorry, I didn't tell you. I didn't think you'd ever need to know," Raven responded. Darien was about to talk again but Victor cut him off.
"Nightwing will be here I the morning. We're getting the whole team together again. Crystal called up Pantha, Hot Spot, Jinx, Herald, Bushido, and Argent already. We just sent Nightwing to get Kole and Gnarrk. Bumble Bee left yesterday to get Tramm, with Aqualad already caught Tramm is defenseless. I was thinking maybe we could send you off to get Melvin, Timmy and Teether," Victor said.
"I can get Melvin and the others, no problem. Why are we getting Jinx?" Raven said, slightly angry at the thought of helping an old villain.
"She's switch sides. She got married to Kid Flash, they have a little girl, Tina I think," Victor said. Raven gave him the are you sure we can trust her look, "Rae, we can trust her. I know we can. She's been married to Flash for 5 years now. Tina is like…. I'd say 3 years old".
That night Raven slept over at Victors house. She never unpacked her bag knowing she would have to leave in the morning to get Melvin and the kids.
