Birthday surprises

Titans tower

It has been two days since Isamu and I returned from New york. It's been a quiet day today, but what was different about this day however was that it was raven's birthday. When it was early in the morning I convinced everyone to sneak into ravens room and say 'happy birthday' to her. She was surprised seeing us all in her room and us surprising her. The reaction on her face was so funny I took a picture of it. She demanded that I deleted it, I did right after I uploaded it in my computer. Which I would use for later when I feel like it. While the others got her party ready and Isamu was in his room getting his gifts ready for raven. I decided to pay the birthday girl a visit to check on her condition. Since I cast the kido spell on her raven has been able to surpress her pregnancy symptoms from the others. Since then terra, starfire, and I had taken raven to the hospital to get her check on her pregnacy. When we all left we would tell the boys we all went to the mall for some shopping. Since then the boys haven't suspected a thing. Robin was still focus on finding out who this Mark guys was, cyborg was making some upgrades so when he faces Grievous again he would be ready, beastboy didn't seem to notice a think which was a good thing to us, and Isamu was still too busy getting ready for when he took raven out on their date.

After we went to the doctor raven and the others wanted to buy some books about pregnancy. I told them however it won't be necesary since I have been taught on everykind of medical condition by Master Hanako and has also been taught how to deliver a baby. Did it once and it wasn't that bad, poor Isamu though we had to use his shirt to wrap it around the baby to keep warm. Raven agreed but still wanted to buy a book about pregnacy so she would understand what happens during her nine month of being pregnant. Since then we have kept quiet about this till raven was ready to tell the others about her being pregnant. She promised us she would tell the others before the five days time on the kido spell was up. We trusted raven to tell the others, but I asked her only one thing that she would tell Isamu sooner before telling the others. She promised me she would when she finds the right time to do that.

I was in the kitchen with cyborg, and terra getting the party ready while starfire, beastboy, and robin went to get the food. I was helping put up the balloons while terra and cyborg were getting the cake ready. "You guys almost finish with the cake?" I asked as I blew another balloon and tied it up.

"Almost done can't wait to taste this six layer cake" said cyborg sounding proud of his cake.

"I thought you were going to make it shorter since what happened last time during raven's birthday" said terra as she helped with the frosting.

"I did but I decided since that whole trigon thing is over and she has Isamu now. I would figure she won't blow up the cake this time" said cyborg.

"Let's hope nothing blows up the cake today. Last thing we need is some loser criminal coming in and ruining today's party" I said as I finished tying up the last balloon.

"Don't worry we checked around and saw there was no sign of any criminal activity. Besides didn't you went out and warned all bad guys if they try and ruin this day you would hurt them in ways they have never been hurt before?" asked terra as she finished with the frostings.

"I did but then there are others out there still wanting to make a name for themselves" I said as I walked over and looked at the cake. It looked delicious, I stuck my finger out to take a bit of the frosting then cyborg slapped my hand away.

"Sorry Hikari but you will have to wait till the party begins. So don't touch or eat the cake till then" said cyborg warning Hikari not to eat the cake.

"Fine I won't eat the cake...not yet at least. Anyways I am going to go and take Nicki out to do a little last minute patrol to make sure there isn't sign of trouble" I said as I headed towards the door to look for Nicki to make sure there won't be any signs of trouble.

Meanwhile raven was in her room sitting infront of her mirror as she was brushing her hair. Raven looked over to her bed and saw the blue strapless dress and her black suede boots. She remembered when she first wore that dress. It was the first dress she wore on her first date. She has worn other dresses before when she went out with Isamu, but she wanted to wear it today for another reason. She kept thinking of a way to tell Isamu she was preganant, she has tried many times to get the courage to tell him. But everytime she tried she would chicken out and leave. But now she knew she had to tell him, she couldn't keep lying to him anymore. She told herself she would tell him today after their date. The only thing she hoped for was Isamu would be okay with it and nothing would ruin this day.

Isamu was in his room thinking of what to do. He knew later tonight he would take Rachel out on her date. But that wasn't why he was worried. What made him worried was what he had wrapped in a little blue box that was on his bed. When he went to that store in New york he bought raven an engagement ring he bought an extra gift he would give her with the others before giving her his real gift. He was nervous he didn't know if he should propose to raven. He loved her and wants to be with her always, but was worried she won't say yes. The only thing Isamu could do is pray she says yes and hopes nothing happens that would ruin this day.

New York

Back in New york Hanako was preparing her things for her departure. She was out on the balcony of her hotel room looking out into the city. Her flight was prepare to leave in two hours which was plenty of time for her to get to. Hanako closed her eyes and listen in on the city listening to all the sounds and noises it was making. Then came another sound that didn't come from below but behind her. She recognize this noise and soon opened her eyes. "What do you think your doing here Slade?" said Hanako as Slade appeared from her room.

"Easy Hanako I come in peace. I came to have a word with you" said Slade.

"I warned you last time if you come here I would kill you. So do yourself a favor and leave now before I do kill you" said Hanako as she turned away from Slade.

"I remember and I know you won't trust me but with what I have you will" said Slade sounding confident she would talk to him now.

"What do you know?" asked Hanako deciding to hear what he has to say.

"It seems Talsein's forces are ready to make their move on the soul society. Talsein told me he would start the attack somewhere before the summer is over. So if I was you I would tell your litte soul reaper friends to be on alert when Talsein comes crashing down on their little home" said Slade as he walked out of the room and stood half away from Hanako.

Damn that means he could be attacking the soul society at anytime he wants. I will need to tell the others about this soon. "Good job slade I guess my grandfather was right to keep you around" said Hanako.

"Thank you Hanako but that isn't all I got from him" said Slade as he looked out into the city.

"What do you mean? What else is my father up to now?" asked Hanako curious on what Slade meant.

"Talsein has informed me that he has a partner helping him. It seems this partner is from a different dimension, one that exists in a different universe" said Slade.

"A different universe? That doesn't sound good, who is he and how come you haven't informed us of this?" asked Hanako surprise by what slade found out.

"I barley found out about it a week ago and had to keep a low profile till I had a chance to talk to you. His name is Mark don't know much about him but his knowledge of his dimension has helped Talsein move foward with his plan faster than we originaly thought. The reason I think they didn't tell me about it was Mark didn't trust me" said Slade

"You surprise? When my grandfather told me you were helping us I wanted to turn you in for your crimes or better yet kill you. So is this Mark guy strong or what?" asked Hanako.

"No he isn't, although he is an impressive shooter he doesn't have any powers. But his allies do, they came with him from his world and they are more powerful than him. They call themselves the' inner cirlce'. Haven't met them yet but from what I heard from Misa they are very powerful. Granted not as powerful as Talsein or Tetsip but they do rival Deathstar and Misa. Though I doubt against me" said Slade who didn't seem worried about Mark's inner cricle.

"Well that changes things. So why does my father need this Mark guy and his so call inncer circle? They don't sound like they would be of some use to him against the soul society" said Hananko.

"I know which is why I am telling you this, to be ready for anything they may have plan. Well I best be off Talsein is sending me somewhere to complete a mission so I won't be able to contact you anytime soon" said Slade as he walked back to Hanako's room heading towards the door.

"Slade" said Hanako as slade paused when Hanako called his name. "Tell me why did you really decided to help us? I know your not just doing this for yourself there is another reason tell me" said Hanako sounding less agressive than she was with slade.

Slade paused for a moment and responded but not turning to face Hanako. "I am not doing this for you, there is another reason for helping you. But those reasons I will not tell you. Your grandfather knows those reasons but he will only tell you when I say so" said slade.

"I see well I would like to know those reasons one day perhaps when this is over" said Hanako.

"Perhaps when I am ready to tell you...good bye Hanako and see you" said slade as he left the room leaving Hanako alone with her thoughts.

Huh I wonder if he is...nah despite all he has done for us he is still the same man as he once was. Still it would be a surprise if he did change. I guess we will know when this war is over and find out. Hanako looked out into the city and saw the sun was going down. She looked at her watch and realized the time. Damn better get to the plane before Ronin says something.

Titans tower

The day went by fast as we celebrated raven's birthday. Starfire made her wear the crown of meat, we played with a Piñata that was shaped like beastboy, we had games, and raven opened her presents. Everyone including raven was having fun. We had music and we ate cake so far the day was going well that it seems like nothing could ruin it. It was around nine and everyone was still playing I noticed Isamu and raven left the rooms no doubt both getting ready for their date tonight. I decided to go check on raven to see if she was going to be all right for her date tonight. I walked to her room and knocked on her door waiting for her to open. Raven opened her door just a bit and saw me.

"Hey Rae mind if I talkd to you for a second before you go on your date?" I asked to raven.

Raven seemed to be hesitating a bit but soon opened door. I was surprise to see her wearing her blue strapless dress and her black suede boots. I smiled when I saw who she looks embarrass. "Awww raven you look so cute" I said making her blush even more. "So are you ready for your birthday date?" I asked.

"I-I am a litte nervous though" said raven who seemed nervous and worried.

"Raven you have been on a date with Isamu plenty of times. Plus the first time you two went out was when it was Isamu's birthday so in my view you have nothing to worry about" I said remembering the time those two went on their first date.

"I know that but it's not the date I'm worried about it's something else" said raven.

"Well what else could you be nervous about than...wait raven are you going to do what I think your going to do?" I said wondering if raven is going to tell Isamu what I think she is going to tell him.

"Yes I am, I was thinking about it and you were right. Isamu needs to know if not now when? I may not like being pregnant but as long as Isamu and you guys are beside me I have nothing to worry about. I trust Isamu and I love him. And I know he will be okay with me being pregnant I know it" said raven.

"Glad to hear it, you two are going to make great parents I know it...now go raven and have a great birthday date" I said as I gave raven a hug wishing her luck.

"Thank you Isamu...and Hikari it's Rachel. My real name is Rachel Roth" said raven telling Hikari her real name.

"Rachel huh? I like it but if it's okay with you can I still call you raven till you tell Isamu about you being pregnant?" I asked to raven.

"Of course thank you Hikari" said raven as she continued with the hug.

Isamu was in his room getting ready for his date. He was wearing a black shirt, blue jeans, white jacket, and black shoes. He looked himself in the mirror fixing his hair and checking his clothes to make sure he wasn't looking bad for raven. When he finish checking he looked at himself in the mirror with a worried and nervous look on his face. Well Isamu this is it, your about to go into what could be your most important date ever. [Sigh] I just hope it goes well today. Isamu looked at the blue box with the red ribbon attached to it and sighted again. I hope you say yes Rachel I really do hope so.

Isamu then hearda knock to his door and knew it was Rachel. He put the box in his pocket and walked over to open the door. Isamu looked a bit stunned seeing Rachel in her dress. "Wow you look beautiful" said Isamu as he leaned foward and kissed raven on the cheek. "Happy 18th birthday Rachel" said Isamu.

"Thank you Isamu your not bad looking yourself either" said raven returning the compliment.

"Thank's Rachel so ready to go?" asked Isamu.

"Sure let's go" said raven as she wrapped her arm around Isamu's and the two disappeared from the tower.

Outside the city

Meanwhile outside the city in an old abandon amusement park was a man sitting ontop of what was once a roller coaster. He was wearing dark jeans with a gray shirt and dark cloak. The man was Talsein Yamamoto, he was at the amusement park enjoying the site of the new moon as he looked up into the sky watching it. He closed his eyes and began to let his mind wonder. He then opened his eyes when he felt someone behind him. He slowly got up and turned his head to see who it was. "Well isn't this a surprise how have you been Master Suzuki?" asked Talsein seeing his master in his soul reaper form.

"Talsein I figure you would come back here. Just needed a little bit of patients for you to show up and now here you are" said Ronin as he stared down on his former apprentice.

"I see your wearing your old outift again. I guess some things never change do they?" said Talsein as he took out something from his pocket and kept it in his hand.

"So your going to fight me this time? Not going to try and run from our fight?" asked Ronin who seemed a little surprise his old apprentice is going to fight him after all the times they have confronted each other Talsein would leave.

"I figure you have waited long enough to fight me and let's just say I have some important buisness to conduct somewhere else and I can't have you getting involved anymore so..." Talsein took whatever he had in his hand and put it in his mouth swallowing it. Then in an instant he separated from his body and into his soul reaper form.

"Heh well now I'm surprise at you Talsein but too bad your not going anywhere. I am going to end this fight once and for all" said Ronin as he slowly bagan to take his sword out of it's sheath.

"Not going to give me one more chance Master? I would figure you would try again" said Talsein as he also began to remove his sword from it's sheath.

"I had plan to turn you back Talsein, but I cannot risk it anymore. Whatever your planning I cannot allow you to go through with it. I'm sorry my old apprentice but I will do what I must...roar mighty Byakko (White tiger)" said Ronin as his zanpakuto changed into the shape of a long white stripped sword with the end having a chain attached to it with the other end of the chain attached to a scythe form blade.

"We will see than old man awaken and howl Kuro ōkami (black wolf)" said Talsein as his zanpakuto changed to the shape of a old big knife shape fang without a hilt like Isamu's but was dark. "Now we will see who is the superior one the master or the student" said Talsein as both men began to unleash their spiritual power causing the area around them to shake as the two men prepare to settle their rivalry once and for all.

Jump city

Isamu and raven had finish their dinner and were sitting ontop of the hill watching the city from the top view. Raven had her head laying on Isamu's shoulder watching the city while Isamu had his arm around her. Raven in her mind had tried to tell Isamu that she was pregnant during their dinner but the way it was going she didn't want to ruin it. Isamu had the same idea in his mind to propose to raven but couldn't do it. Raven knew the day would be ruin if she told Isamu she was pregnant and he would react to it badley. Isamu was worried that if he proposes raven would say no and that would ruin this day.

I have to tell him, maybe the others are right Isamu would be okay with it. He takes good care of Melvin and the others so well. I'm sure he would be okay with him finding out I am pregnant. Raven sighted and knew she would have to tell him now.

Maybe she will say yes. She loves me and so do I, that should be enough for her to say yes right? Isamu decided to ask her now and hope that she says yes.

"Isamu there is something I need to tell you. It's important" said raven as she turned to Isamu.

"That's funny cause there is something I need to ask you too. And it's also important...actually it's one of those life changing important things I need to talk to you about" said Isamu wanting to say what he needs to say before raven does.

"Oh well okay then go ahead and go first then" said raven deciding to hear what Isamu wanted to tell her before she does tell him she's pregnant.

Okay here we go Isamu. Isamu grabbed raven's hands and looked into her eyes getting ready to propose to her. "Rachel when we first met you and I didn't get along. In fact there was a time when you even threaten to send me to a world of pain and sorrow if I ever made you angry or hurt our friends" said Isamu.

Raven remembered that, she also threaten to hurt him if he ever entered his room without permission.

"But over time you and I got along better and soon we both began to fall for one another. Our first night out was the best night of my life because I got to be with a beautiful angel like youself" said Isamu as he stroke his hand on raven's face.

Raven closed her eyes and felt his hand stroking her cheek. She felt happy at what Isamu was saying, she has felt more happy now than she has ever felt before. She felt bad though that whatever Isamu was going to ask her she knew it would ruin this moment if she told him she was pregnant.

"Being with you has been the greatest moments of my entire life and I want to continue that experience by being with you for a long time" said Isamu as he put his hand in his pocket and grabbed the blue box.

Raven could sense Isamu was nervous about something. There were times when she couldn't sense or read what was going on in Isamu's mind. But there were times when he would let his guard down letting raven peak into his mind and find out what he is thinking. Right now she could sense he was nervous about what he was going to ask her. She wondered what it was when she saw him pulling something. Her heart began to beat a little faster when she figured what Isamu was going to ask her.

"Rachel Roth will you..." Isamu stopped when he felt something. Something familiar.

Raven could tell something was bothering Isamu. "Isamu what's wrong?" asked raven.

"I don't know I could have sworn I felt Master Suzuki's spiritual energy and someone's else's nearby. From what I could tell they were fighting" said Isamu almost sounding a bit concern for his master.

"Well well if it isn't Isamu Ishida and Raven fancy seeing you here" said a nearby voice. Isamu and raven recognize the voice and turned to see it was Tetsip. "We meet again boy" said Tetsip as he looked down on Isamu and raven.

"Tetsip" said Isamu angrily as he stared down on Tetsip and had raven stand behind him not wanting her to get hurt.

"I'm glad you haven't forgotten my name good to see. Because I haven't forgotten our last encounter myself. Only this time I don't intend of holding back" said Tetsip as his hand began to engulf in flames

Raven saw Tetsip's hand began to engulf in flames and knew that this day has gone from good to the second worse birthday she has ever had.

Chapter seven is over another bad birthday for raven huh. Anyways the next one will be up soon if my school work doesn't prevent me from finishing it. Please leave a review and tell me what you thought of the chapter. Take care and see you all later.
