Black Ravens Story
Just like Joker had claimed they found Black Raven on the roof. He was sitting with his back to the railing leaning on it. The approached without saying even a word. They just looked at him with a question in there eyes. Harley even sat down opposite to him and pulled Joker down to sit beside her. He not so willingly did so. "Zane I think that it's time you tell them." Joker placed a hand on his shoulder and Enchantress fall to her knees beside him. Raven nod his head and Joker took his hand away. Black Raven turned to look at Enchantress. She smiled at him and nod. He smiled back brought her hands to his lips kissed them and turn back to look at them. By then they understood that this might take a while and sat down.
"I guess that I should start with the fact that my real name really is Hiroshi Netterville just like that bitch said. I am the son of a human man called Jacob Netterville and a tengu demon woman Sakura Fujino. The only daughter of a powerful demon Lord. They met by chance in America and fall in love at first sight. My father loved my mother so much that he dropped and sacrificed everything he had at the time just to be with her and went with her to Japan. Even to my grandfather disapproval they still got married and a year later I was born. I had a normal and happy childhood according to the 16th century Japan standards and culture. Everyone treated me well and when my grandfather realized that I am more like my mother and the rest of her family than my human father. He was overjoyed and saw his possible successor in me. Especially because his two sons were considered fools to the family and had brought shame to our family name many times. Or that is at least what he claimed. So I grew up without a care to the world until that day." He paused there and sigh. Enchantress placed her hand on his shoulder. He turn to her with a smile and nod signing that he's ok. He sigh once more before continuing where he left off.
"I was 16 at the time. Along with my parents I was attending a family gathering at my mother's family grounds. The ones you all have been guests at." He explained. "I was a day like any other. Nice, sunny and warm it was spring after all coming close to summer and the sakura trees were blossoming more beautifully than ever before. No one would suspect that my mother's clan would be assassinated. They came out of nowhere and killed everyone by either cutting their throats or piercing their hearts. My mothers family tried to fight but they were greatly outnumbered and the bastard who was behind the assassination made sure that my clan's powers would be weakened. Especially our ability to regenerate and other immortality powers by poisoning their food with a potion extracted from a now extinct flower called the death angel. They were tiny purple flowers found in Japan and China centuries ago but they are considered extinct since the middle of the 18th century. They also happened to be the only thing that can weaken a tengu demon. Or even kill them if consumed in great amounts. The extraction and preparation of it potion was hard but the potion itself has no smell or taste just like water so my family had no idea that it was in their food.
When they attacked despite my disagreement I was brought to the basement along with the kids and other teens. My 2 stupid uncles and a loyal servant were to guard us but they failed. They were killed just like everyone else. When the attackers tried to kill us I was lucky enough to injure one of them and escaped the basement. Then without a thought about anyone else. Not even my mother or father I ran towards the waterfall. There is a hidden cave there that only the family head knows about. My grandfather had shown it to me on the day of my 16 birthday. At the time I had no idea that it meant that I had been chosen to be the next clan head. The next Tengu Demon Lord. I just thought that it's a fun place to hide when you want to avoid everyone when you have a bad day. So I ran there to hide. I came out about two hours later to see them set fire to the house that was filled with my dead family members. I was angry I started to shout and went into a rampage. They of course caught me and pierced my heart but thanks to my half human genes the death angel potion didn't work on me and didn't slow down my regeneration ability. Even though it's a lot slower than the one of a full tengu demon it was fast enough for me to live. But that was just more painful for me. I didn't lose my consciousness and I couldn't move either. All that I could do was watch how my family and our house burns into ashes. And that I cannot forgive myself." I tear rolled down his cheek.
"I should have stayed fought alongside my grandfather and the rest of my family. If I did maybe at least I would have died along side them with honour. And now I have to live with the fact that they were all killed because of me. I found out from the emperor himself that my family was assassinated because of the fact that my grandfather appointed me his successor. The other demon Lords didn't want a half breed to rule alongside their future full blood children so they decided that getting rid of my clan was the best thing they could do. As then I would not be able to bring more half breed impure demons onto this world." He was now crying. "Why oh why did you do this to me !" He shouted looking up at the sky. "I should just find another way to kill myself then that stupid flower and filly leave this world to be reunited with my family on the other side." He said and was immediately slapped across the face by Enchantress. Everyone looked at her shocked.
"Don't you even dare to say such things." She said through clenched teeth. She was definitely pissed. " I told you that so many times you fucking idiot. That was not your fault. If those people didn't want to meet you. Didn't want to see what a nice, gentle, loving and honest man you. No to mention that you have a heart of gold. It's their problem as I am sure if only they would have met you they would have loved you to become the next Lord after your grandfather." She said looking him in the eye before she caught him by the collar of his shirt and pulled him in for a kiss. Nearly everyone looked the other way except Harley who started to clap and said "Finally I thought that it would never happen." And Boomerang who whistled and smiled like a perv. "Don't you think that I will let go of you so early especially since I only got you back." She said when they separated. Black Raven just smiled and hugged her. "Thank you." He said and Enchantress once again just smile. Black Raven wiped the last tears from his eyes without taking off his glasses and turned back to the squad.
"After the clan massacre as they called it I was placed under the care of my father's family. His parents to be exact. They knew what I was and accepted that. They were wealthy people but really kind. They never made a so called show out of them. Which they also thought me to do and I try my hardest to not show that I may be better than others just because I have money. But there are times I fail." He giggle at himself. "When I was 20 years old I overheard that my grandfather wants to arrange a marriage for me so I left America for Japan saying that it's the high time I rebuilt my mother family house and settle there since it's only right as I was after all born in Japan. My grandfather was angry but my grandmother told me to leave him to her and wished me a safe journey and made me promise that I will come back. Even if only to attend their funerals. And so I did as I said. I used the family wealth to rebuilt my family house and later on to built the one that is there now. I had a few different businesses thought out my life and a few love affairs. But Enchi was my first real love." He turned to her with a smile and kissed her forehead.
"The minute our eyes met for the first time she had me. I was stuck in her trap and I am not sure myself how but somehow we started to court each other. Shockingly it took her a couple of months to find out that I'm a demon while I found out that she is a witch only a couple of weeks after we first met. After courting each other for nearly 5 years I finally decided to drop down on one knee and ask her that special question. She said yes of course after all who would reject a guy like me for god's sake I have everything. The looks, the power, the money and more." He start brag and Enchantress smacked him on the chest knowing that it was all just a joke. He giggle at that. "By god that was the the happiest day of my life." He want on. "But then 3 months before our wedding I was summoned to the palace by the emperor. He informed me that his daughter is madly in love with me and wishes to marry me and that since I am a Lord gaining my grandfather old title I indeed can marry her. I of course told him that I am already to be wed soon and despite the princess's affection for me I have to decline. But he went on. He knew that I was always after the revenge and that the fact that just one man had lost his life for causing my entire family's death was not enough of a revenge for me. So he offered me many things including the amnesty which he knew I badly wanted to be able to kill of of the bastards that killed my family. In exchange for just courting his daughter and pretending to be engaged for as long as possible. And I fall for it. I accepted his offer. I was fooled like a little kid. And when Enchantress found out about it she left without a word. All I knew was that I was lucky she didn't kill me then and there when she found out. And so for nearly 10 bloody years I pretended to be engaged to that little brat. But never once have I brought her to my bed. And when we had no choice but to share a futon with her or if she was too eager I always placed a sword in the middle between us. That meant that I am not to touch her and she is do to the same. It was a tradition for tengu demons and she had to follow it whether she wanted to or not as an unmarried couple was to stay pure till the day of the wedding. After 10 years had nearly passed I simply said t0 her father. 'I have kept my part of the deal. I can't stay with her any longer. People are starting to notice that I am not aging and that the princess and myself are growing more and more apart. I'm sorry to say that but she is a really spoiled little bitch. You can try to kill me for saying so if you want but you know that it's gonna be hard.' He just laughed and apologized for everything. I left as soon as I got everything I wanted without saying goodbye and tried looking for Enchi. But I had no luck so I concentrated fully on taking my revenge. And so I lived like that for centuries until just recently when I finally killed the last of the bastards that had something to do with the killing of my clan." He finished. By then Enchantress had laid her head on his shoulder and Joker had laid his own head on Harleys lap. They all seemed to have forgotten about their problem.
"Shoot how much time do we have left ?" Asked panicked Deadshot. "About 35 minutes." Boomerang checked his watch. "For fuck sake what are we to do now ? Cause I am not loosing my daughter." Deadshot stated. "I know Floyd I also don't want to loose my little Lucy. I don't even get to see her as often as I would like to." Harley had tears in her eyes. "Who the fuck is Lucy ?" Joker asked lifting himself up to sit. "Puddin she is our daughter. 5 years ago I had become pregnant. I had left for nearly a year. Don't' you remember ?" She asked him now crying. Joker flattened his green hair back with his hands. "I do recall something Harls but why didn't you tell me ?" He asked annoyed. "You said it yourself that you are not cut out to be a father. I was afraid you would make me get rid of it. Of her of our little girl." Harley buddier her head in his chest. "Oh Harls." He wrapped his arms around her. "I may be an evil, cruel psychopath with serious anger issues and to put it simply I rally and just strate fucked up on the head but never so much to kill my own flesh and blood." He said seriously. "You could have just told me. Knowing me I would have been pissed and I most likely would have tried to kill you but you know me Pooh at the end I would have calmed down. Apologize and fuck you till you last consciousness." He smiled at her in that psychopathic way only he could. "Really Puddin ?" She looked up at him. "You know me Harls." He just smiled and they kissed. "If we will live or escape jail I promise you that we will pick up our little princess from you stupid brother and take care of her ourselves. And we will be the best parents ever." He smiled at her again and once again they kissed. Everyone looked at them confused. "Normally I would say that they both need therapy but since Harley is a Psychiatrist I have no idea what to think." Black Raven thought to himself. "You took that right of my mouth dear." He heard Enchantresses voice in his head.
"Eh Ehm." Deadshot grunted. "I am really happy that you two are all lovey dovey again but could you please engage in the act of love making in hops of making Lucy an older sister some other time ?" Deadshot asked. "Normally you would be dead for saying such a thing but I know the situation so I will actually just this once listen to your advice." Joker stated. "Thank you and now does someone has any sort of a plan ?" Deadshot asked. "Sorry mate no is the best I can do." Boomerang respond. They were all out no one was able to think of anything. They just dropped her heads down in shame. "I say we just give up and try to escape prison one way or another. After all Joker and Harley did it plenty of times and would be willing to help a friend wouldn't yous ?" Flag proposed. "Not really." Joker stated coldly.
"But then what ? We just crash at Ravens place again ? That has no sense." Deadshot had lost all of hope. Then they heard Boomerang giggle. "Why are you laughing at a time like that you bastard." Deadshot asked annoyed. "It's just that I wished that those vampire like teeth of Ravens would actually be vemonus cause maybe then he could bite that bitches her off while injecting venom into her." Boomerang smiled at the thought. Hearing that Black Raven jumped up and hugged Boomerang saying "You are a genius mate." He then let go of him and said "Follow me." They did so without a question.
