#################################################
As Raven walked out of Dr. Light's shop she stood and stared at her cousin for a moment. Raven sighed as she finally walked the last few feet and stood by her cousin.
Slade walked over and stood behind Raven.
"What are you doing here Aria?" Raven once again asked.
"I'm here because I want to be here." Aria said shortly looking at nothing in particular. She then looked at her cousin from the corner of her eyes. She saw Raven scowl at her and said. "It is getting close to your birthday and you know what happens then."
Raven blinked as she took in the information.
"What about my birthday?" She demanded.
"I'm here to insure that you get your freedom of choice. Yet I will warn you once, whatever the choice you make you will lose something and it could be very dear to you. I hope you think on that for a while."
"And what are the things that I could lose?" Raven asked as she stared at her cousin.
"As I said before you will have to wait and see about that." Aria stated as she turned to and walked over to Slade. She held out a hand as she introduced herself. "Hello Slade we have not been properly introduced. I am Aria. I have no last name but if you must use one then it is Roth." Slade shook her hand as he looked to Raven questionably. "Yes both Raven and I use the same last name because it is our mothers' last names. And before you think it yes I can read your mind." Aria stated as Slade ripped his hand from her grasp and backed away slowly.
"Aria you're not suppose to read people's minds." Raven said with her hands on her hips. Aria turned away and looked at her over her shoulder.
"No you do not read people's minds because you think it is rude and is invasion of their personal privacy. I do not deal with that moral code. If the person can not guard their thoughts then it is their fault and not mine."
"Moral Code?" Slade asked.
"It states that the thoughts and minds of other should be treated with the utmost respect. It also says that the thoughts of others can be a dangerous thing. One should not try to force or take over the mind of another." Aria said as if teaching a class. She then turn and face the others. "But to put it the shortest way possible, she follows it and I don't."
"That's enough about the blasted code. Where did you come from?" Raven snapped.
"I came from my mother's womb." Aria said shortly as she raised an eyebrow as Raven face palmed.
"That's not what I meant and you know it. Where did you come from just ten to twenty minutes ago?" Raven asked as her cousin looked at the ground and then looked at her with an eyebrow raised. "You came from down there. I mean way down there."
"Yes why is that so hard to grasp." Aria questioned as she placed her hands in her pockets. She then looked to Slade and said. "You probably do not know I am a demon and yes we are talking about Hell. Yet it is the one you are thinking of." She stopped as she put a hand to her chin in thought. "You could say that it is the Underworld where all demons reside. Hell is for the damned souls that can not be reincarnated. The souls that do not deserve to be reincarnated go there. If you have any other questions you will have to wait for a later time. For now it is time for lunch." Aria stated as she clapped her hands once then dashed at Raven. She picked her up and jumped through a portal in the floor. As soon as they were through the portal closed but not before Slade saw it was a bed room that they disappeared to.
Slade shook his head as he walked away having already become used to the method of portals.

Wayne Mansion - Raven's Room
"What do you think you're doing kidnapping me?" Raven demanded as she took a pillow from her bed and threw it at her cousin. The pillow did not even hit her because it blew up in mid-air. Raven was shocked by the cascade of falling feathers. "Now I know why I didn't like those pillows their full of feathers."
"Are we having a pillow fight?" Aria asked as she levitated a pillow over Raven's head. Raven looked up only for the pillow to drop on her face as she was hit from the side by another.
"Hey quit it." Raven demanded as she batted the pillow off her face.
"Hmm, let me think. Nope you started it." Aria picked up a pillow from the bed and swung it at her cousin who ducked just in time. Raven scowled as she grabbed the pillow from the floor and swung at Aria.
All Aria did was deflect the pillow with her own as she took the rest of the pillows off the bed and threw them at her cousin.
Raven dived out-of-the-way just in the knick of time. Some of the pillows hit the wall and burst open.
There were five pillows left from the original eight and Raven only had control over one. She watched as Aria dropped the one she was holding and with her mind took control of the remaining four.
Raven watched as the pillows moved around her in a circle. They kept on changing the height that they floating making it hard to keep an eye on them all. All of a sudden they stopped and stood still. Raven then looked to her cousin and noticed the gleam in her eyes.
"No don't do it Aria." Raven said as she dropped her pillow and held her hands up showing she was unarmed. Aria looked like she was going to let up when someone knocked on the door.
Aria waved a hand at Raven as she walked over to answer the door.
Alfred stood at the doorway and was going to ask who the young woman dressed in black was when looked over her shoulder. He saw Raven standing in the middle of her room as she was hit with four pillows from all sides. In a puff of air the feathers were released and Raven was covered with them.
A feather landed on Raven's nose causing her to sneeze.
"Bless you." Aria said as she leaned her back against the door frame. With her right she waved at Raven causing the feathers to fly off her and into a pile. She then turned to Alfred. She held out her hand for Alfred to shake. But before Alfred could Bruce walked over behind them.
"The first time I work from home and there is a commotion." He then looked into Raven's room and saw the broken pillow cases and the pile of feathers. He looked to Raven and said. "What do you think you're doing having a pillow fight in my home?"
"Raven is allergic to feathers." Aria said.
"What does that have to do with and who are you and why are you in my home." Bruce demanded as he looked over at her. He was shocked over her beauty and his mouth was agape.
"So one problem that you have is the broken pillows." Aria stated as she snapped her fingers and the pillows were whole again. "The next one was about who I was. To tell the truth I am Raven's cousin Aria. The last one was why I am here. I'm here because my cousin is here. Do you have a problem with that?" Aria demanded as she walked up to Bruce and stared him straight in the eye. Her eyes were cold and unforgiving. Bruce took a step back and Aria didn't miss it. "Backing away is a sure sign of weakness. What's wrong Brucey can't handle a young woman?" Aria said as she backed him in to the wall.
"Aria knock it off now." Raven voice was heard demanding from her room. Aria backed off as she turned and walked back out into the room. With one hand she grabbed a hold of Alfred and pulled him along with her. With the other hand she closed the door but not before the eight feather pillows rushed out and pelted Bruce.
Bruce was left standing in the hall before he stormed to his office.
Inside Raven's room Raven stood in shock. Aria walked over to her and closed her mouth with a finger as she walk past her and grabbed the desk chair. She then carried it over to Alfred for him to sit down. With one hand she forced him lightly to sit down.
"As I was going to say before I was interrupted my name is Aria and I am Raven's cousin."
"I see." Alfred said as he shook her hand. "But I thought Raven said that you were Albino."
"I'm Albino but I stick out like a sore thumb so I hide my true coloring. Well true coloring for this form that is but that is a discussion for a later day."
"Well that is nice but you didn't have to get mad at Master Bruce." Alfred said as he let go of Aria's hand.
Aria reached up and scratched the back of her head as she said.
"He had it coming; he was acting like a jerk because Raven had someone she liked."
"I don't like Slade." Raven said as she crossed her arms in front of her chest making an X.
"Someone is in denial. If you need help with the matchmaking just ask." Aria whispered out of the corner of her mouth to Alfred.
Alfred nodded his head with a smile.
"Thank you the help would be much appreciated."
"What help?" Raven asked suspiciously.
"He needs help with lunch so good-bye for now." Aria said as she slowly walked Alfred out of the room. Raven's eyebrow rose as she asked as the door shut leaving her alone in her room.
"You can cook?"
##########################################
Mansion - Kitchen
"You should get a hold of Wintergreen and put him on speaker phone." Aria said as she let Alfred walk into the kitchen first.
"If I put him on speaker phone then Master Wayne will be able to hear him."
"No he won't." Aria said as she ran her fingertips along the frame of the door. White light came from where she touched and the door frame glowed. She then walked over to one of the walls and smacked her hand against it. As hit the wall the room gave off a light glow until it disappeared completely. "They we go he will not be able to hear us and neither will Raven."
"Was that a spell? You did not use an incantation."
"I don't use the basic spells all I do is will it to happen and nine times out of then it does." Aria said as she shrugged a shoulder.
"What happens with the one out of ten?" Alfred said as he pulled out his cell phone and speed dialed Wintergreen When the phone was answered he placed it on the table.
"I will something to happen and change my mind or just let the power go because I feel like it. Sometimes it does nothing but other times it makes a crater the size of a city block or bigger."
{That does not sound good. You might want to fix that.} Wintergreen's voice said from the speaker phone.
"Hello Wintergreen I hope Master Wilson liked the recipe I gave you." Alfred said as he sat down on the stool beside the table.
{Yes he did in fact like the recipe but first who is the third part of our conversation.}
"She is. . . ." Alfred began before he was cut off.
"I am Raven's cousin Aria."
{You do know it is rude to interrupt.}
"Isn't it better for the one in question to introduce them selves?"
{If someone is talking to someone they should not be interrupted."
"And where is that rule written?" Aria asked with a raised eyebrow.
"There is no rule or rule book but it is call common courtesy." Alfred said.
"Sorry I don't have much of that." Aria stated as she floated cross-legged three feet off the ground. "My childhood and the way I was raised is far different than any you have heard of. But to make it fair I will try not to interrupt."
"What kind childhood did you have then?" Alfred asked a he leaned his elbows on the table with is fingers steepled.
"My childhood could be considered fighting for your life. Kill or be killed. Or being stronger and having the weak obey your every whim. But that's for you to decide which one I lived." Aria said as she stood up and placed her feet on the ground. She then walked over to the fridge and took out things for lunch. She picked them up and walked to the table. She then placed them down. "Sandwiches and soup sound good?"
"Yes that sounds lovely." Alfred said with a smile.
Aria picked up the bread and read the label.
"Italian bread, hmm, but the label said it was made in the local bakery. False advertising at it finest." Aria said as she threw the bread over her shoulder as she took something out of her pocket. The thrown bread landed in the empty sink. Alfred eyebrow rose in question as he watched as Aria.
In her hands Aria held her wallet as she sort through the money in it for the proper currency.
"I'll be back." She blinked and then said. "I just sounded like that character from that Apoplectic movie series." Aria shrugged her shoulders and then disappeared in plain sight.
Alfred got up and removed the bread from the sink and put the bread back in the bread basket. When he turned back from the fridge he learned that everything on the table was missing. He turned back to the fridge and opened it to see everything back where it was. He was about to take everything back out when Wintergreen spoke.
{What is going on over there Al? Did something happen?}
"As far as I know nothing happened that I know of. Aria just disappeared and the food was back in the fridge."
{She might have some of the same power as Raven. She is her cousin so she might have teleported somewhere.}
"Yes but where did she go?" Alfred asked as he closed the fridge and walked over to the table. He sat back down as Aria appeared out of thin air. She was holding a medium large paper bag that she placed on the table. She then started to take out what was inside.
From the bag she took out a loaf of bread that was still steaming like it was straight from the oven. She then took out deli meat with labels written in French and Italian. After that she took out takeout bowl full of soup and placed them of to the side. She reached in the bag and took out a baguette. She then took out a knife set from the bottom of the bag. The last think she removed was two bottles of French wine and a big jug of herbal green tea. All labels were not in English.
"Where did you get all of this?" Alfred asked as he looked at the pile of food.
"Most of it I got from the Cantinetta dei Verrazzano. I got the rest at a farmers market in France and from a grocery store there." She said as she took a knife from the set and began to cut the bread. She began to make sandwiches. As she was making them she flicked a finger at the bag and condiments came out of the bag. She made sandwiches as Alfred began to speak.
"The Cantinetta dei Verrazzano is in Italy the last time I checked." Alfred said as he got out bowls and plates from the cupboards. He then got out trays to put the plates and bowls on to make it easier to carry. He placed them on the table. Aria looked up from what she was doing and said.
"You short two of everything. And you forgot the silverware and cups." Aria stated as she looked at the cupboard and out came four wine glasses and three large mugs. When she started making the sandwiches again the silverware drawer opened and spoons and forks came out and made a small pile.
When Aria finished she made up the now seven trays of food. She left five trays on the table as she made two of them float beside her. She then said as she teleport herself and the food with her.
"Hope you didn't make lunch yet Wintergreen."
{No I did not make lunch yet. . . . Are you still there? . . . . .Yes I'm still here.}
###############################################
Slade's Mansion - Living Room
"Yes I'm still here." Aria said as she appeared and placed the trays on the coffee table. "Hello Wintergreen I hope that you like the lunch I brought." She said as Slade walked into the room. "Hello again, lunch is ready so see ya." She said as she waved.
"You can just teleport over to my home. If you're going to at least call before you do so." Slade said as he took a seat in a chair.
"Aye Sir." Aria dead panned as she salute and clicked her heels together. She then proceeded to fall backward through a portal in the floor. The portal closed leaving Wintergreen and Slade alone.
"Interesting character Raven's cousin seems to be." Wintergreen said with a smile. All Slade did was sigh as he ran a hand down his face and leaned back in his chair.
################################################
Wayne Mansion - Kitchen
Alfred looked up at the ceiling as the portal opened. Aria came out head first and landed one-handed on the table as she held all of her weight on her finger tips. She then proceeded to bend her back and waist backward until she made an arch with her feet on thin air. She stood up straight and then dropped lightly to the ground.
"I would say that you are about as flexible as Harley Quinn, if not more so."
"I'm sorry but the name means nothing to me."
"What about the name Joker."
"You mean the Joker from the deck of cards right?" She said as she closed her hand and then opened it. She was then holding a deck of cards. She picked up the first card with two fingers and showed it to Alfred. It was a Joker card.
"No I mean Joker as in the villain."
"No I have no clue who you're talking about but I don't really can about this city's villains. If I meet them then I will ask about them." Aria said as she made a portal in the ceiling and floated one tray through it.
"Whoa, what the heck is going on now? First floating trays full of food what next flying pigs." Tim was heard exclaiming because of the tray floating beside his bed.
"If you want I could make a pig fly for you." Aria asked causing Tim to lean over the side of his bed so he could see her.
"Whoa you're hot." Tim said with a slight blush.
"Thank you I think." Aria said as Alfred spoke.
"Master Timothy that is no way to speak to a lady." Alfred admonished.
"What its true she is pretty fine." Tim stated as Alfred put his head in his hands and shook his head.
"If you like exotic colorings you'll love my cousin. If you be good and listen to Alfred I will sent her over to give you. And yes she is beautiful." Aria said causing Tim to.
"A hot girl's giving me supper. A hot girl's giving me supper." Aria said before she closed the portal.
"Don't worry so much Alfred he is a growing teenage boy with teenage hormones. It would be strange if he acted any other way." Aria said as she opened another portal and floated it in to Raven's room.
"What do you think you are doing down there?" Raven asked as she looked through the portal.
"Lunch delivery." Aria said shortly.
"I can see that but why didn't you use the stairs?"
"Can't too lazy. Oh and here's a new book." Aria said as she threw a book that she got out of her coat at Raven. She then closed the portal. She looked at the remaining trays and picks one up. "I'll take this to Bruce. Don't worry I will not throw it at him and I will try not to be rude." She said as she walked out of the kitchen. She heard Alfred call after her.
"It's rude to read people's minds."
"Yep, I was told earlier today but I still do it."
Aria watched up to Bruce's office and knocked. When she heard Enter she opened the door and walked up to the desk.
"What are you doing here?" Bruce demanded hotly.
"Oh don't get your panties in a twist. I'm just giving you lunch. Oh and a warning." Aria stated as she placed the tray in front of Bruce.
"And the warning is?" Bruce asked with an eyebrow raised. Aria punched her fists lightly on either side of the tray and held them there as she leaned over the desk to stare Bruce in the eye. The force she used was light for her but for the desk it was too hard. She left imprints of her fist in the wood.
"You have better stop acting like a hormonal teenager. Raven does not like you that way and she never will so just give up that line of thought. Her power run off her emotions and you are causing her a lot of distress. I was going to come later in the month but with the way you are acting I thought it would be prudent to come now. So here is the jist of it, you have better treat my cousin a heck of a lot better or I will have to make you. Do we have an understanding heh Brucey?" Aria said in a dark and foreboding voice quite different from her own. Bruce nodded his head as Aria took one of her fist off the desk and with the palm of her hand ruffled his hair like he was a child. "That 'a boy Brucey you can learn actually." Aria then stood up straight and walked over to the door. As she was leave Bruce finally regained his composure.
"Who are you to threaten me?" Bruce demanded.
"I'm not threatening you Bruce I'm making a promise so you had better watch out if you know what is good for you." Aria growled over her shoulder as she glared at him from the corner of her eyes. With that being said Aria walked out and shut the door behind her leaving Bruce shocked at his desk.

Here ends Chapter Ten
I have about a month with no one using the computer but me so I will try to put out multiple update to make up for the long wait. I will also read over the story or just get a Beta reader for the mistakes can be fixed.
Yahoo I just broke the fifty review mark. Man do I feel like Black Star from Soul Eater at the moment.
Reviewers
Xxsnow dream - Don't Die, here is the update you asked for.
discb - Yep Aria will piss off a lot of people. Batman is only one of the firsts.
Will Smith - I'm sorry my grammar is bad I don't think I read over the chapters very well. So I'm sorry if it hurts will try to fix it.
Ana-Shadow-Wolf - All I can say if woof, long chapter review. Thank you for liking my penname. I'm glad the personalities are in check. I think a lot of people think I have to work on Slade's. But I portrayed him as I saw him watching the show. He was only overly violent with Robin and Terra. Yep there should be more of the pairing but we can always hope. Slow fall in love check fast fall in love nope. I'm not really shy so I have no idea. There will be more scenes between the two. Yep beware the quiet ones for you have no idea what they think or how they think. I don't think Light will fully ever get over his fear of Raven. I always thought that Raven saw Cyborg has a brother. Wintergreen and Alfred being friends came off the top of my head and I made the idea work. Yes they do play important roles, one raising Bruce and other one being in the army with Slade. Batman will get a girl so he can stop being an idiot. The matchmaking trio will see to it. About the party you may be surprised. Bus rides are always boring they take way to long. Yeah Aria is going to make some huge waves. She doesn't know much of humans because she was raised in a far different place. She will be seen as Rude plenty of times. Yep looks aren't always what they appear. Don't worry I did not think your review was boring I found very informative. Thank you for the review and I will keep on writing this story.
acrobats they tumble - Yep here is the update. Thank you for thinking the last chapter was great. Alfred has always looked like the father figure to me and with Raven not having much of one she will lean towards him more. No Tim was almost killed by Joker not Slade. The next Chapter will have Raven meeting Tim. No Aria will not be a Mary Sue. Revenge will be served very soon. It's okay take your time and I look forward to reading them. Thanks for the review.
XHidanXInoX - Well here is the next chapter. About making Raven envious I think I make Slade be instead. I will continue and thank you for the review.
markstn41 - Thank you for the review and I'm glad you think that the story is awesome. Here is the requested update. For the second review. Hmm kidnapping of the Raven I think I can do that. I'll make her lose a bet with Aria. Have stay put for Slade to save her. She better watch her mouth or Slade will just lock her up again.
Simba Spirit Skywalker - Awesome thanks for the review. Here is the new chapter. About the New Titans Go have Slade as Deathstroke. Well Raven is use to calling him Slade and so am I. If I did any different I might mess up. Oh ya thanks for the PM.
Midnight Lost - Thanks for the review and here is the update.
juna0217 - Slade will get his badness back with Batman and Nightwing piss him off. I'm glad you think it the story was funny. And with me I think Slade liked holding onto Raven in the Birthmark episode a bit too much. He almost ripped all her clothes off. Thank you for the review.
To everyone who has reviewed my Story I thank you and I am happy that you like the story so far.
Just a warning. I will be adding in more characters soon. From the likes of Deadpool to Jason Todd (AKA Red hood) so look forward to them. If someone wants a character added and I can work them in then I will put them in the story. Thank you for reading this fic and thanks for the reviews.
Reason why I wrote this is Raven and Slade Youtube videos. I might even add in some of the songs or list the names.
This story was forever bouncing around my head and would not stop. So I wrote it down. It is a story that I hope will be liked. I will try to make the chapters the same length.
Hope you like it.
Reviews are welcome
