Disclaimer: I don't own anything! Except Raven, she is mine^^
Anyway, I've been thinking about this story for a while, and finally wrote it down. So enjoy, or don't enjoy it is your choice. I've been a fan of Batman since I was 5, and I loved Teen Titans and was depressed when they canceled it. So Young Justice has quickly become one of my favorite shows! I despretly want them to make more episodes but they haven't been coming out….might go find a jar of dirt and set my pocket ninja on the writers :D
This is just the first chapter, the story will gain more of a plot in the next chapter!
"How is this simple recon?" Kid Flash yelled zooming through a room barely dodging the bullets that were ripping into the wall behind him.
"Batman's information must have been wrong," Aqualad responded fighting off three heavily armed men.
"Batman's information is rarely wrong," Robin commented taking down three guards. "We must be late." He added.
"Then let's get back on schedule," Superboy commented barreling though a group of men, causing most of them to go down.
"Where is that machine though?" M'gann asked in referral to the device that had sent them there in the first place.
"Your guess is as good as mine sweetness," Kid Flash said disposing of five guns. He turned and looked at the others handiwork; all of the men were down for the moment.
"Little heroes, how disappointing," A booming voice said.
"We aren't little," Superboy growled.
"At least he didn't call us sidekicks," Robin offered shrugging. They all grouped back together, seeing how the outpour of goons had suddenly decreased. The heard the sounds of a single man's footsteps. Then suddenly a large blue wall of light appeared, and Robin's batarrang merely bounced off of it.
"However young heroes, you are not the one I laid the trap for," The booming voice said. "It is rather disappointing, because I will have to kill you now, even though you all look so entertaining." The man said entering the light. His white suit stood out against the grime of the warehouse, his hair was combed perfectly over his head, and the only thing that stood out of place was the long jagged scare along the side of his face.
"Who was this 'trap' set for?" Aqualad asked. "Superman, Batman?" He asked trying to get information. The man looked at him oddly.
"I am not setting this trap for small fish in a big pond," The man laughed, "Your Superman and Batman won't even turn my head." He added laughing. "For I am looking for a bigger fish, for which I have planned sweet revenge for," He added cackling. "But like I fool I have told you, so you must die," He said raising his arm and pointing a rather large looking gun. "Ta ta," He grinned as his finger tightened around the trigger.
In an instant the man was doubled over clutching what was left of his hand. The blue wall disappeared and the young heroes glanced at each other, not quite sure what to do. The man in the now stained white suit began laughing.
"My bigger fish has come," The man laughed. "And I shall get my sweet revenge." He added. The team listened for any sound, and received none.
We should move in and take him. M'gann's voice rang through the team's mind.
Yes, he will clearly be easy to take down. Superboy commented.
"Come out, come out wear ever you are," The man yelled in to the darkness, and the team slowly spread out.
"Whoever you are, do not, I repeat, do not attempt to take him down." The team's communicator's crackled with an unfamiliar female voice. Before anything could be said a person in black appeared in front of the man.
"Hello little girly, miss me?" The man crackled pulling out another gun. Within seconds the gun was skittering across the floor and the man collapsed to the ground. The person, presumably a girl, reached over and pulled out an odd looking device from the man's pocket.
"Did you kill him?" M'gann asked shakily moving towards the downed man, the rest of the team following.
"No, I've seen Batman use that move before," Robin commented. "He says that it takes a while to master it and not kill them." He added. "And I would guess that that is the machine we were sent to get."
Suddenly the girl through it up in the air and with three loud bangs, it fell back to the ground in pieces. "The man is yours, the machine is fake," The girl commented turning. Her long raven black hair swishing behind her in the long pony tail it was restrained by. She slipped her gun back in to its holster in the most unique leather belt, the belt was made up of overlapping leather pieces that formed pockets, and it was filled with dozens of gadgets and knives.
"Who are you?" Aqualad asked. She turned to face him, her lower face covered with a mask, and the right half of it covered by her long bangs.
"It isn't important," The girl responded turning away. "It is highly probably that we will never meet again," She added walking off, her knee high combat boots making almost no noise against the floor.
"Batman to Young Justice, do you have the machine?" Batman's voice asked crackling over the communicators.
"Negative, a girl appeared took down the prep, and then destroyed the machine, she claims it is a fake," Robin responded.
"Keep her there, someone will be there in 5 minutes," Batman's voice snapped loud and clear over the communicator. The team exchanged glances.
"Your leader wants to speak with me," The girl commented.
"You got it," Kid Flash said flashing his grin as he appeared by the girl. "Now, seeing how we will be meeting again, how about a name." He said slinging his arm around her shoulder. "Ow, ow, ow," Kid Flash said as his arm was twisted backwards.
"Don't touch me," The girl said disgusted. "Men like you are the reason I am here in the first place," The girl added sitting down on a crate crossing her legs and taking an almost meditative style stance.
"I am M'gann, that is Kid Flash, Aqualad, -"
"I know who you are," The girl commented reaching into her short cropped jacket and pulling out what looked like a pack of cigarettes. She pulled on out and light it.
"Smoking is bad for you health," Superboy stated looking at the trail of smoke.
"It isn't a cigarette," The girl replied. The team and the girl fell into an awkward silence. The girl's cigarette smoke trailed off into the night smelling oddly like roses. "Raven," She suddenly said.
"Raven?" Kid Flash asked dumbly as he ate his way through one of his energy bars. "I don't see any birds," He added. The girl looked at him, her eyebrow raising.
"Is that your name?" M'gann asked floating over and sitting next to her. The girl said nothing. "It is, and it is a rather pretty name." She added. Raven snorted.
"I've never heard anyone call the name Raven pretty before." She commented.
"Your parents must have thought it pretty when they picked it." M'gann protested.
"My parents didn't pick it," Raven commented stiffly, standing up. "Tell your leader that I have things to do." She added.
"Would that involve killing the twisted leader of Bonbon?" Batman's voice asked out of the darkness, causing the team, except Robin, to jump.
"Depends," Raven said unfazed. "It depends on whether or not I have a 3 million dollar check in my account," She added. "But I have a feeling that you are going ruin that plan." She added sighing.
"You're a gun for hire?" M'gann asked.
"No," Raven replied. "I do what I do, and if someone calls me up and asks for a favor I do it," She added. "And if someone wants to pay me for a job that I was already planning to do, so be it."
"Why would anyone want a favor from a hit man?" Superboy asked confused.
"You would be surprised." Raven commented. "If you are going to take me in to custody or whatever you wonderful heroes do, I need to make a phone call." She added reaching into her cropped jacket pulling out a slim phone.
"Go right ahead," The voice of Superman said as he landed in the warehouse. "But you will be coming with us."
"Whatever you say," Raven said rolling her eyes and punching in a number. "Hello Mina?" She greeted. "I'm so sorry but something came up so I can't take your father out," She commented and then paused. "Don't worry, I will get to it," She added nodding. "Okay, bye." She said hanging up. "I'm all yours boys." She said holding her hands out.
Superman looked at her coldly. She looked back at him with a look that probably fit somewhere on the high end bat glare scale. Superman turned his look to the Young Justice group and then over to Batman.
"I don't like you," Raven suddenly said to Superman. Superman looked at her shocked, it wasn't every day that that was said to his face. "And if you are going to take me into custody can you do it soon, I have some things I still need to get done." She added.
Batman said nothing but stepped forward and slipped the batcuffs on her wrist. "We will conduct the interrogation at Young Justice Headquarters." He said. M'gann nodded and called the Bioship.
"Wait, let me call my bike," Raven commented reaching into her leather belt. The sound of screeching wheels was heard as a black bike appeared, Raven reach forward and touched a button and the bike collapsed into a small disk.
The trip was a silent one, Batman sat next to Robin and kept his eye on Raven. Superman was flying next to the Bioship and Superboy was looking everywhere except at Superman. M'gann breathed a sigh of relief when they landed.
"Give me your belt and jacket," Superman commented to Raven. She sighed and handed the belt to him, and then shrugged off the jacket, seeing how she had picked the lock on the cuffs.
"I would take her boots too," Batman commented. Superman looked at him and then nodded to Raven, who sighed and then took off her boots. She tossed them at Superman. "Follow me," Batman said to Raven she sighed and followed him out of the room. Superman put her things in the kitchen and then followed Batman. The teens exchanged glances.
"What are we supposed to do know?" Kid Flash asked.
"Want to watch a movie?" M'gann asked. "I was reading something and it said that friends watch movies together." She added.
"Why not?" Superboy shrugged. Kaldur nodded along with the others.
"Yay!" M'gann exclaimed happily. "Which movie do we want to watch?" She asked floating into the living room waving her hands to open the cabinets that held a rather impressive collection of movies.
"Do you have any favorites Superboy?" M'gann asked. Superboy surprisingly nodded.
"Which one?" Aqualad asked. Superboy pointed to the Disney collection.
"I love Disney movies!" Robin exclaimed vaulting over the couch.
"Any movie in particular?" Kid Flash asked with the same eagerness.
"Not really," Superboy commented.
"What is a Disney?" Aqualad asked. Robin and Kid Flash froze.
"Disney is only the best kid movies in the world!" Kid Flash said. "Seeing how you haven't seen any of them, we should start with something in your element," He added zooming over to the Disney section. "This one!" He exclaimed pulling out 'Finding Nemo'.
Seeing no complaint from the others Kid Flash popped it in. M'gann floated over and sat down next to Superboy, who had assumed his normal seat staring at the television with his cold blue eyes. Aqualad sat in the lone arm chair and looked at the television with mild curiosity. Kid Flash and Robin flopped on the last open couch together and the opening previews began.
"That was interesting," Aqualad commented as the credits rolled by 2 hours later.
"You haven't even seen the entire iceberg yet," Kid Flash commented.
"Yes, you should be prepared to be totally whelmed." Robin agreed.
"My favorite is Tangled!" M'gann commented. "Uncle John took me to go see it when in was in theaters," She added happily.
"I'm partial to Peter Pan myself," Robin commented. "Mom couldn't get me to stop pretending to be him for a month," He added.
"Which we will not need a repeat of," Batman commented appearing. Robin pouted slightly.
"Well know that answers the short shorts question," Kid Flash laughed. Robin sent him a glare.
"At least my favorite Disney movie isn't Bambi," Robin snorted.
"There is nothing wrong with liking Bambi!" Kid Flash protested.
"Sure there isn't." Robin grinned.
"Which one do you like?" Superboy asked looking at Batman. Batman looked at him.
"I was partial to Snow White and the Seven Dwarves," Batman said very calmly. The teens all looked at him shocked.
"Really?" M'gann asked wide eyed.
"It takes a brave man to admit he liked Snow White and the Seven Dwarves," Raven said appearing with her belt in her hand.
"Which one do you like?" M'gann asked.
"I like Mulan," Raven responded. "A cross dressing chick saving her country, now that is something," Raven added. Superman then entered the room. He nodded to Batman.
"For the next week Raven will be under house arrest here," Batman commented.
"More like Cave arrest," She commented. Batman sent her a glare, she glared back.
"She will be here for a week, so we can decide what to do with her," Superman finished.
"Will she be going on missions with us?" M'gann asked.
"It depends," Batman answered.
"On what?" Aqualad asked.
"On what his little background search comes up with." Raven commented. "Which isn't going to be much," She added. Batman said nothing and turned to Superman.
"We should be getting back to the tower." Batman commented. Superman said nothing but looked towards Rave. "She has the tracker bracelet," he added, Superman then nodded. The two men left.
"I can show you to a room if you would like," M'gann commented. Raven nodded and the two walked out.
"This should be interesting," Robin commented. "A girl that Batman appears to like, and that Superman doesn't," He added. Kid Flash nodded, knowing better then to question Robin's observations.
Tada! This first chapter got rid of some of my writers block, so hopefully my other stories will be updated in a week or so! And I am not joking when I say reviews make me happy! I do enjoy constructive criticism.
