The days went by and Rain found her self feeling very moody and knew she was difficult to live with for the three men but they stayed by her even when she was yelling at them for something stupid. Soon her and Dick were planning their wedding with occasional input from Bruce or Alfred, she liked to hear their opinions on things like colours, silver wear, and location.

Before she knew it their wedding was planned and she was eight and a half months pregnant, she knew the babies (an ultra-sound revealed that she was carrying twins) could decide they wanted out anytime now, and it kind of scared her, she didn't know if she was ready to be a mother of two yet, but weather she was ready or not she was going to be.

Rain sighed and sat down on her favorite couch, it was a beautiful Saturday in June, Bruce had a meeting and Dick had gone shopping and had taken Alfred with him, at first he wasn't sure if he should go and leave her home alone, but she insisted that he needed to get out and have some fun, she felt guilty, the last four months he had been at her beck and call and had taken all of her " abuse" for lack of better word, without complaint, and she knew there was more to come once they got the babies home. Wanting something to do Rain stood up and went out to the garden, all the flowers were in bloom and everywhere she looked was an explosion of colour, amidst the display of flowers and blossoming trees was a waterfall like fountain, at the bottom of which there was a small pond littered with lily-pads and flower petals. Rain sat in front of the pond and admired the affect; looking into the water she saw two large orange and white fish, and one black fish swimming around. Smiling Rain continued to watch, but something caught her eye in the reflection of the water, she gasped seeing the person behind her.

The car pulled into the driveway late in the afternoon, Dick jumped out first and ran up to the house, he had had a bad feeling all day and was very anxious to make sure Rain was alright, Bruce and Alfred weren't far behind him. Once inside the split up, Dick looked in the living room that she usually occupied when she had nothing better to do, but it was empty, so he moved on to the kitchen, empty too. Getting worried he met up with the other two by the exit to the garden,

" Did you find her?" he asked a little out of breath, they both shook their heads and looked at the door, Dick opened it and the three of them stepped out into the garden. Dick nearly had a heart attack from what he saw, lying on the ground near the pond was a body with it's back to them; the body had blood on it as did the ground around it. They ran as fast as they could, Dick got there first, he stopped abruptly in front of the body and went down on one knee, and he let out a sigh of relief, "It's not her." He looked up at the other two and they all turned around looking towards the trees and bushes. Dick looked at the ground and saw a bloody paw print, he looked in the direction it was pointing and walked slowly toward the clump of willow trees, but he stopped when he heard a low growl, Bruce turned and looked in the direction as well and came up beside Dick,

" Rain, it's okay, it's us." He said softly,

" Hunny, c'mon out, we're here, you're safe now." They heard a low whine and saw Rain step out of the cover of the trees, her jet-black fur matted with blood. They moved forward and kneeled on either side of her as she changed back, together they helped her to her feet and then inside, Rain cried silently into Bruce's shoulder, they took her into the living room and put her on the couch,

" Shh, shh, hush now, it's okay, you're alright." They held her between them as she cried herself to sleep, Alfred brought a blanket down and covered them with it, and it wasn't long before Dick was sleeping and Bruce was halfway there. But he continued to wonder who that man was and why he was there; he also wondered what they were going to do about him. He knew they would have to call the police, but he wondered, could Rain be arrested for manslaughter? The question taunted him until; finally, he fell into a light doze. While they slept Alfred reported the incident, he told the police that she was home alone when the man attacked her; luckily she had one of the dogs with her. It wasn't long before two police officers were there as well as an ambulance; the officers took a few pictures of the man before searching him for I.D. but they found none, so they took fingerprints then okayed it for the paramedics to take him.

The police were gone by the time Rain woke later that evening, her stomach growled and she laughed when Bruce's replied. Her quiet laughter caused dick to slowly lift his head from her shoulder and look at her with squinted eyes

" What's so funny?" his voice was thick with sleep,

" Nothing." Was her simple reply, he shrugged and gently kissed her cheek as Bruce began to stir. With a groan he opened his eyes and smiled at the other two, but before he could say anything Alfred entered the room with a warm smile,

" Diner's ready if you're hungry." All three groaned as they stood and stretched,

" Thanks Alfred." Bruce clapped his hand on Alfred's shoulder and they all went to the kitchen to eat. Over diner Alfred told them what he told the police and what they had said, they were all relieved that Alfred had dealt with it, he always seemed to know just what to do and say. He informed them that Rain could not be found responsible because the man was trespassing, and had attacked her, so the blame was on him; the dog was even looked at and congratulated on a job well done.

Later that evening Dick and Bruce left to do hero stuff, so it was just Rain and Alfred at home, they were sitting quietly in a homely decorated room just off the main hall, Rain was reading one of her many baby books, and Alfred was folding laundry. When the doorbell rang they both looked up, when Rain went to get to her feet Alfred smiled,

" That's quite alright Ms. I'll get it." She smiled and leaned back,

" You can stop calling me "miss" Alfred, it makes me feel old." He simply nodded as he stepped out of the room and towards the front door. After a few moments of silence Rain heard the door open, then muffled voices, followed by a heart-stopping thud. Rain froze when she heard the sound. Sitting stalk still Rain listened, she heard a female voice call out,

" Search the place! And bring me the girl." Rain gulped and crouched down low to the floor, waiting for the door to swing open. When it did, it wasn't a man, or a woman standing in the doorframe, but a long thick vine. Her eyes grew wide as she stumbled back on her butt, she watched the vine dart towards her and managed to avoid it at the last second, but it changed course and came at her again, this time successfully wrapping around her. With a panicked scream Rain felt the vine tighten a fraction before dragging her out of the room and to the main entrance. Standing at the bottom of the steps was a tall woman with long red hair; her dress was knee length and very low cut, and looked to be made out of large green leaves.

Ivy smiled when she saw Rain wrapped in the vine," I see you've met my friend, he's not much for conversation but he's a great listener." Rain scoffed at her words,

" What do you want with me?"

" Oh but I don't want you at all, I want what you have, a certain man that you have." Rain stiffened,

" You want Dick?" she asked tentatively,

" Well you're close, I want his other side. You know what I'm talking about, don't you G. Wolf." Ivy's words stung Rain, everyone knew that she had a thing for Robin, but Rain hadn't thought she go this far, not on her own anyway.

A van pulled up to them and the door opened to reveal Harley, she smiled and gestured for Ivy to get in. Moments later Rain was in the back of the van still trapped in Ivy's vine while Harley drove and Ivy sat in the passenger seat, they were talking quietly but Rain wasn't listening, she was trying to figure out what she was going to do. She knew she had to worn Dick but didn't know how, she continued pondering her situation and why Harley was helping Ivy until the van stopped. Looking out the window Rain saw an old warehouse,

" What's with bad guys and old warehouses?" she asked under her breath before she was dragged inside. The inside was just how Rain had predicted, covered in large leafy plants and beautiful, exotic looking, flowers that she knew were probably dangerous to any one but Ivy.

With a soft "thud" the vine dropped Rain in a cage high enough for her to stand and large enough for her to take four steps in each direction. Ivy laughed triumphantly as she watched Rain glare at her from the floor of the cage.

" You think you're such a smart little girl don't you? Well guess what honey, you're not as smart as you think." Ivy's expression showed pure pleasure at seeing Rain in the cage.

" What are you talking about? I never claimed to be smart." At this Ivy laughed again, he voice rang in Rain's ears, Ivy knew something, something Rain didn't, " What is it you're dying to tell me Ivy?"

" Dying to tell you? Why would I want to tell you anything? I doubt you could even understand half the things I have to say, your mind is too… miniscule." Rain rolled her eyes,

" I'll do my best." Her voice dripped with sarcasm as she came closer to the bars of the cage so she and Ivy were face to face.

" Well let's just say, by the end of tonight, Robin, or should I say Dick Gracien, will be mine." At this Rain's lip curled into a snarl,

"He'll never be with you." The venom in her voice got a raised brow from Ivy,

" You might want to calm down, you wouldn't want to cause the child any discomfort." Rain cursed silently and tried to calm herself, but something about the way Ivy was looking at her made her uneasy.

" What are you planning?" Ivy thought for a moment before smiling and chuckling,

" Oh it's too good not to tell you. You are going to have your child tonight, I know this for a fact, and what I'm going to do is take your baby, and claim it as mine. Then I'll tell Robin that the baby's mine, and he will feel responsible and because you're gone, he'll be with me." A frown creased Rain's brow as Ivy laughed again,

" I don't see how he'd feel responsible, there's no way you could have his baby unless..." Her voice trailed away

" Unless we made love," Ivy leaned close to the bars so their faces were only a few inches apart, " and it was the best I ever had." Rain's face darkened and a feral look came into her eyes,

" He wouldn't!"

" Oh really? Then how come I know he likes to kiss the soft, sensitive skin under his lover's jaw?" Rain froze as angry tears filled her eyes.

Slowly shaking her head she backed away from where Ivy was standing and sat on the other side of the cage as a hundred emotions flowed through her. Satisfied Ivy went over to a group of monitors and addressed Harley,

" Are they back yet?"

" Nope."

" Excellent."

" When are you going to give her the shot?"

" Soon."
