Raven flew towards the coordinates that she had been sent, but she didn't really need them. You could see the fight miles away. What surprised her most was Slade himself.

He wasn't even fighting the attacks which the group was so busily producing. Dodging a Star-Bolt here, a Sonic Blast there, while avoiding a rampaging T-Rex, and evading combat with an annoyed teenage boy.

Upon noticing Raven's arrival, however, he instantly captured the fighting group in a web of pure energy, and entangling her, alone, in a whip of sorts, using the same energy that held her friends so tightly.

Slade walked with slow, deliberate footsteps towards the captured girl, struggling to escape. He bent down in front of her, slipped his hand under her chin, and lifted it up to meet his face.

"My my. I've learned a lot about you since the… incident… with Trigon. And if there is one thing I've noticed, it's that the more I learn, the more I want to know."

Raven hated to admit it, but she was captivated by his presence. She couldn't even hear her team-mates angry, shocked responses.

"Well, I believe I have captured your attention somewhat. Here. Take this. I believe it belongs to you. We'll be seeing each other again soon. I guarantee it. And when we do, I expect to find out a bit more about your deep, complicated personality."

Slade then faded into the shadows, the Titans were released, and they immediately rushed to Raven's side, but she was still in shock. There, on the ground in front of her, was the only possession she had truly cared about. An onyx-like ornament which had the look of the universe in the stone, and a constellation in the centre making up the shape of a raven.
