CHAPTER 1 THE STRANGER FROM ANOTHER DIMENSION

... but before he could deliver the death blow he was blinded by a swooshing spray of water.

Kara saw the glittering body of the dragon blow Einon from view as he landed between them and the king. His wings swooped up and he roared. She heard Einon's scream and then...

Knock! Knock! Knock!

Raven looked up from her copy of Dragon Heart and glared at her closed door. Why was it that everytime she was reading a good book someone had to interrupt her? She might as well put up a DO NOT DISTURB sign whenever she wanted to be left alone but she doubted anyone would read it anyway.

With a small groan she set the book down and walked over to the door. She put her hand on the knob and opened it slightly. A green face stared back at her.

"Hey, Raven," Beastboy said cheerfully. "Want to Play Super Smash Brothers Melee with me and Cyborg? We'll let you be Mewtwo."

"No," she said flatly.

"But," he began to protest.

"I said no!" she said again then closed her door.

Beastboy shouted something at the closed door but she didn't understand what he'd said or bother asking. All she did was go back to her bed, pick up her book, sit back down, and start to read.

... She heard Einon's scream and then saw him splashing through the water towards his mount. He strumbled into his saddle and, wheeling his horse, looked upon the dragon and shivered, quaking in fear. Draco seemed to shiver too and dropped his wings with a gasp as Einon...

Suddenly sirens began blaring. Raven groaned and set down her book as she heard Robin's voice shout. "Titans, let's move!"

Realizing she would just have to finish the book later she marked her page and set it on her bed. Then she rushed out of her room, lest she be left behind.


Meanwhile in another dimension and place called the Demon World or the Makai a fire and ice demon named Hiei was patroling the forest, searching for an aggressive demon, Mukuro, his closest friend next to Kurama, had told him about. This particular demon didn't care one bit about the rules that had recently been laid down concerning human world and Demon World. Because it posed at a threat and couldn't be persuaded otherwise it had to be disposed off. Hiei just wished he didn't have to do it. Fighting some demon fool is just a waste of my time, he thought as he walked through the forest. Why couldn't they have chosen someone else to do it?

By then he'd reached a clearing. He stopped in his tracks when he saw someone dressed in a black flowing dress staring at the sky expectantly. From what he could see from where he was standing it looked like a woman.

He chose to ignore the skywatching wench and proceeded to keep walking. The woman must have heard him because she looked in his direction with dead black eyes and smirked.

Hiei stopped dead in his tracks at the look she had given him. "What's that look for?" he demanded.

She turned to him and put her hands on her hips. Hiei noticed she wore a very reveiling top but didn't pay it any mind. His eyes stayed on her pale chalky face. "You've come to kill me, have you not?" she asked him, still smirking.

Just the tone of her voice got on his nerves. "It depends," he said. "Who are you?"

The woman laughed then suddenly expanded. Her dead black eyes glowed blood red and her voice became deeper as her body took on the form of a dragon. "I am the demon who wants to destroy Human World!"

Hiei instantly drew his sword. Maybe he was going to have some sort of challenge after all. "Not if I can help it," he said.

The dragon laughed then came down at him with its mouth wide open.


The Teen Titans drove through the city until they found the person responcible for the trouble. As they got out of their car and looked up they saw a familiar standing on top of a skyscaper.

"Slade," Robin exclaimed, recognizing the villian even though he was high up.

Slade recognized them too especially Robin. "Hello, Titans," he said in his soft emotionless voice.

"What are you up to now?" Robin demanded.

Slade held something up for them to see. He pressed down on a button that was on the device and a huge portal in the sky opened up. "I was thinking of bringing in some new friends for you to play with," he said. "This portal leads to another dimension. If I leave it open long enough a demon is sure to come out."

"Not if we can help it!" Robin shouted, pulling out his staff. "Titans, go!"


Hiei jumped back as the dragon burst up an inferno that set a row of trees ablaze. He retaliated with a sword blow to its flank. When he did this the dragon demon tried to eat him. The smaller demon jumped back, narrowly avoiding those razor sharp teeth. He was about to come at her again when the sky above them suddenly opened into a spirling vortex.

Hiei froze and stared at the portal. What is this?
The dragon seemed to know what it ment. She flapped her huge wings and flew toward the portal, laughing madly.

Hie watched her go for a few seconds then shouted. "No, you don't!" before he jumped into the air after her.

The two reached the portal at the same time and both were sucked in before it closed.


Raven, Starfire, and Beastboy were the first Titans to reach Slade and began having it out with him. Robin and Cyborg, being unable to fly, ran inside to take the elevator. As always they were having a hard time fighting him but there was no way they were going to give up. They had to get that remote away from him and close the portal before anything came out of it.

"Raven," Slade said as he avoided a water tower that she'd thrown at him with her dark powers. "Surely you have better aim than that."

"I'd have better aim if you stood still!" she countered throwing a ladder at him next.

Slade avoided the ladder and was about to comment but a noise from above caused him to look up. Raven, Starfire, and Beastboy, wondering what he saw, also looked into the sky. They saw something coming out of the portal. Two things actually. One was huge and the other was much smaller. The two figures looked like they were in the middle of a heated battle as they fell toward earth.

"What is that?" Starfire asked, staring at the fighting firgures.

Raven noticed Slade was also preoccupied by the fighters. Seeing her chance she raised her arms and began the spell. "Azerath, Metrion, Zinthose!"

A giant black bird rose up behind her and came at the villain. Slade noticed the bird but before he could do anything about it the spell hit him, causing him to drop the remote. He and the device went in different directions. Since the remote was no longer in his hands the portal closed but the two figures in the sky remained, keeping their crash course for earth.


Hiei kept his eyes on the dragon and they fought. Because of that he was unaware that he was falling or that there was a city below him. As he slashed at the dragon she slashed back. This time she didn't miss. He grunted in pain as her left claw contacted with his chest and cut a huge bloody gash in it. Grabbing his side he slashed at her and cut off her left claw. The dragon screamed at slashed at him with her right claw. He didn't see it until it was too late amd the claw sliced into his face.

He screamed in agony as blood spurted out of his forehead and he felt the claw dig into his Jagan eye, which was hidden under a white band of cloth. Wailing, he fell back and smashed into the building where the Titans had gathered, watching.

Starfire let out a yelp as Hiei crashed to her feet. The demon didn't even notice her as he got back up and glared at the dragon. It was coming at him, it's chest totally exposed.

Seeing his chance he jumped at her and plunged his sword into her chest. The dragon let out a gurgled shriek then died, its huge body pitching backward and falling to the ground with Hiei still on her.


Robin and Cyborg had reached the top of the building in time to see everything happen. They'd also seen Hiei kill the dragon. "Let's see if he's all right," Robin said to his friends. "Come on."
The dragon's body smashed into the ground, creating a cloud of dust. Hiei choked on the dust and shiethed his sword hacking as he fought his way to cleaner air. When the dust settled and he could see again he saw five figures of different sizes coming toward him.

Not more, he thought reaching for his sword.

Hiei'd arm missed the sword and fell back to his side. He panted heavily as the ground lurched under him. Through blurred vision he saw the figures were closer now but didn't seem agressive. The one in the middle asked. "Are you all right?"

The demon couldn't answer. His eyes shut and he swayed slightly backwards before he lost his balance and fell to the pavement, his back landing with a splotch in a pool of blood that immediately began to suround him.


"Is he all right?" Starfire asked as she Raven and Beastboy leaned over the senseless demon.

"I don't know," Robin said. "But I think we should take him back to the tower. Maybe he'll be able to tell us something about that portal." he looked at Cyborg. "Do you think you can carry him?"

"No problem," Cyborg said leaning down and easily picking the demon up and slinging him over his shoulder.

Robin looked at his friends. "Let's go."

As the others headed back to the car Raven noticed something on the ground. Curious, she walked over to it and picked it up. It was the remote Slade had used to open the portal.

Hmm, she thought.

"Raven!" Beastboy called. She looked up. "You coming?" he asked from the car.

"Yeah," she said stuffing the remote into her cape. "I'm coming." she walked over to the car and got inside.

A/N

I admit it. This is my first Teen Titans fic as well as my first crossover fic. I am trying to keep everyone in character as best I can so I'm watching the shows to get them right. Heh. I hope you don't mind too much. If you liked the fic let me know. I'm trying something different so please tolerate me okay? I'm trying to make it seem as though Hiei's earth and demon world aren't in the same time and place. Kinda like parallel worlds or something just to be original. P.S. Please don't get upset about me putting Hiei in the story. It is a crossover fic after all. Hiei crossed over into the Teen Titan's world. Lol.

I highly encourage reviews. I would really like to know what you think of it so far. Even if all you have to say is one word...
