Hey guys, it's me here. I'm really sorry I haven't uploaded in a while. Life's been busy and I should have warned you about it. The last couple months have been a lot of college stuff. I'm sorry again that I haven't posted in a while, but I'm going to try my best to upload once a month or so.

On a side note - I'M SO SORRY FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT HAVE ALREADY READ THE NEXT TWO CHAPTERS!

This chapter is supposed to go before the other two, and I'm really sorry I didn't notice it was wrong sooner! I'm fixing it, so if you want to reread them in order, that's fantastic.

Thank you for all of your support through favorite-ing me, my stories, and commenting on them. I'll keep on writing!

Last thing: Some of you might not know about this, so I'm just going to tell you. I have another story called "Sara's Story", and it follows this one. It isn't as long as Additional Member, and I don't intend for it to be. Sara's Story is more like a background for you guys if you want to learn more about how Sara and Max's relationship was growing up, and even now. So check it out if you're interested!

I'll stop rambling, so - Enjoy!


The walk through the mountain was much more enjoyable since it was now downhill; But the person walking beside her made her want to climb back up.

Even though Draneyeth Cain was said to be an all powerful, ferocious, tyrannical, needs-to-be feared one man army - he was oddly happy and upbeat. Rarely did he abandon his smile as he walked alongside Raven. A smile, grin, or giddy face was always plastered across his own. And to be frank, it somewhat frightened Raven. It wasn't as though he was himself. That annoyed her even more.

She got the feeling that he was putting on a show- but for whom? She did not know. The blue-eyed vixen just walked next to her on their journey down the mountain, smiling all the whilst, not having a care in the world. The occasional question was thrown her way; some she answered, others she avoided, to which he respected.

But he did it to an extent.

When he asked her "Who are you doing all of this for?" she merely avoided the question and he grabbed her arm. He spun her towards him to which she cried out, "Hey!"

For the first time since she met him, a smile wasn't on his face, but instead was replaced by a deep scowl. He leaned closer to her and growled lowly, "I would at least like to know who you're putting me through hell and back for before I even think about helping you."

She stared at him blankly and pried her arm from his grasp. She said dryly, "It doesn't matter. I saved you from your other hell so you have to do as I say - no questions asked."

He raised an eyebrow at her and a sly grin worked its way to his face. He asked challengingly, "Is that a request?"

Staring fiercely back at him from underneath her hood, she growled, "It's an order."

His closed eyes twitched and he opened them again - though he didn't want to. After taking a deep breath, he smiled once more. Cain's smile was a little darker than the others, though. He told Raven in a raspy voice, "Fine… Rule Number One: No questions." He looked at her seriously and asked, "Any others while we're at it?"

After thinking for a moment, she resumed walking and told him as she passed, "No mask."

He blinked as if he tried to translate her words in his head. He asked, following behind her, "What?"

Her abrupt stop startled him and he could see the scowl underneath her hood. She said angrily, "Wipe that smug little smirk off your face is what it means. I hate it when you try to act as though you love walking beside me when I know you hate it."

He was slightly taken aback by her words, but soon, his shocked face turned to a more serious one. He said dryly, "No mask. Got it." As he raised his eyebrow at her, he asked, "And Rule Number Three?"

She turned on her heels once more and said, "Don't cross me."


"What…?"

As all of the Titans stared at the redheaded flirt, he had no idea what conversation he had walked into.

Robin asked, "How fast can you do an entire search on the city?"

Smirking, Kid Flash asked, "How fast can you say 'city'?"

At his comment, Robin grew annoyed and he said, "Flash-"

In a seconds notice, Kid Flash was gone from their sight and his pizza fell to the ground.

Robin huffed and said what everyone was thinking. "We're leaving Raven's safety in the hands of someone whose only specialty is flirting…"

Starfire added worriedly, "I believe we are to be doomed by the girl who is named, 'Destiny'."

After a consensual nod, the team sighed heavily.


After Raven had told him her third rule, they were off again and Cain put his hands in his pockets.

Raven looked over to him and saw his attire; consisting of a grey tweed trench coat - whose buttons were almost comically large - black, slightly baggy jeans, and a long red-and-green plaid scarf which hung to below his waist.

She couldn't take his old fashion anymore and told him, "Okay, we need to get you to change clothes. The stripes are starting to hurt my eyes."

Cain stared at her, them himself, and said, sounding hurt, "Well excuse me. The last time anyone called me to your world was when Babe Ruth was still playing for the Yankees."

She asked him questioningly, "Babe Ruth was powerful enough to summon you?"

He stared at her and a nostalgic smile grew on his face. He said, "Yeah… Yeah he was…"

A pleasant silence fell over the two and they walked alongside one another, enjoying the peace and quiet.

"…!"

Until a gust of wind blew violently at them and Raven gasped, "Hey!"

In the ferocious burst of wind, her hood fell down and her hair was flung back. When she opened her clenched eyes again, she went to turn around and ask what the commotion was, but as she did Cain's expression caught her eye.

She turned to him and she asked, "What…?"

When the wind blew down her hood, her face was revealed to Cain. Her violet hair and smooth stunning face shook his nerves and his eyes widened in surprise.

"You… You-…" he stuttered for his words and it took him a while to find the right ones. "- You're a girl," he spat out as his back hunched.

She raised an eyebrow at him and said, "Glad you noticed."

He shook his head and told her, smiling hysterically, "Sorry, it's just - in my realm when everyone was talking about this fierce warrior taking down their demon parent…" He laughed more - clearly unable to process the turn of events. "You're a girl!" he nodded.

"Is that a problem?" she asked, slightly annoyed at him.

Cain coughed and recomposed himself. He put on a serious face and said, "Nope. No problem at all."

Raven rolled her eyes once more at the demon's actions.

When the air grew colder, her shoulders cringed and she rubbed her arm, looking to the horizon. The sun was dipping slowly, inching towards the flat building tops of the city.

Raven turned towards Cain and she said, "Alright, after we buy you new clothes, I'll take us back to the Tower."

He rose an eyebrow at her and repeated, "Tower?"

She sighed and grabbed his hand. "I'll explain on the way."

As she dragged him to a clothing store which read - when transcribed from Italian to English - "First World Emporium".

As soon as she had, another gust of wind blew past the two, unnoticeable, and unfazing to them.


Meanwhile, as the two browsed for suitable clothing for Cain…

Kid Flash stopped in front of his friends - who had either impatiently tapped their foot against the pavement, leaned against a building wall out of boredom, or ordered a large meat lovers deluxe pizza from a local shop to share with their Tamaranian friend.

He jogged to a halt and told them, "Okay, Raven and this other dude just went into a shop half a mile from here."

Robin perked up and asked, "What shop?"

He thought hard and said, "Primo, Mondo… Something."

Cyborg said from his spot on the T-Ship's hood, "That's specific."

He sighed angrily and said, "It doesn't matter. I know where they are."

Sara's head shifted to him and she pushed herself off of the wall. She questioned, "'They'?"

He shrugged and said, "Weren't you listening? I said some guy was with her."

Her eyes questioned his words and she asked, "What's he look like?"

Kid Flash scoffed and said, "Like he hasn't been around since 1921."

Sara's face twisted in remembrance as she told them, "That's because he hasn't…"


After Raven was pleased with Cain's new look - consisting of dark Levi jeans, a navy blue undershirt, and a dark gray jacket that highlighted his brown boots - Raven's attention was brought to his hair.

She stared at his jet black hair, which ends' were a pretty, light azure. Though they complemented his electric blue eyes, it made him stand out on the streets of Verona. She asked, "Is there anything you can do about your hair?"

He smirked and said, "Nope."

After hearing her sigh next to him, he asked, "Is there anything you can do about your gloomy personality?"

She glared at him and said angrily, "Is there anything you can do about your mouth?"

He pointed to it and said, "I can do this." He gave her a large grin which spread from one side of his face to the other.

She rolled her eyes and turned her head back to the sidewalk. "How about your age?"

"What?"

When she saw his confused look, she told him, "A thirty-something year old man and a nineteen year old girl kinda stands out in crowds."

He smiled at her remark in anger, and said, "Try twenty seven."

She raised her eyebrow at him. "Same difference." Crossing her arms in front of her, she said, "You still look sketchy."

His tongue found his lower incisors - which was becoming a habit when he was annoyed at his companion. He stared at her smugly and said, "Yes. Yes there is."

In a moments notice, a yellow light encased him and once it vanished, he looked seven years younger. Smiling in satisfactory, Raven said, "Thank you," before walking down the path again.

Cain sighed and asked, "Where are we going again?"

Without turning towards him, Raven called over her shoulder, "To pick up a gift."

"For who?" he asked.

She smiled remorsefully and said softer, "For a friend…"


The Titans Tower was very peaceful as the pair entered it. As the saying goes, not a soul was stirring; Mainly because the only soul there was unconscious. Raven could sense Beast Boy still lying in the infirmary's bedroom.

Which only meant he hadn't woken up yet.

Once the door shut behind them both, Raven threw the bag of Cain's old clothes on the table. She turned to him after making sure no one was home and asked, "First. Do you sleep?"

Cain smiled and laughed in disbelief. "I'm a Shinigami, not a bug."

Raven raised an eyebrow at him. "That didn't answer my question."

Sighing, he told her, "Yes. I sleep."

"Perfect," she said, "Because Beast Boy's room is free right now."

At the name, Cain let out a loud "Pff!" and clasped a hand over his mouth to contain his laughter.

"What?" she asked.

Looking up at her, he repeated, "Beast Boy?"

Raven crossed her arms and said stoically, "Draneyeth."

He stood up straight again and narrowed his eyes at her. "Touché."

She heard the elevator ding and before Cain could protest, she shoved him into a black hole which she created in the floor. He screamed and she quickly shut it after throwing down his old clothes. Putting her hands behind her back, she stood attentively towards the door. The doors opened and she was met by five pairs of eyes.

Raven started slowly, her friends staring at her, "Hey… Guys…"

They all piled out of the elevator and Robin asked her, furiously, "Who said you could just up and leave to go to Verona!?"

At the city's name, Raven's expression changed. "You… Knew, where I was?"

Kid Flash jumped in, saying, "Well yeah, I mean, the center of a triangle is a type of summoning circle, right?"
Raven asked, clearly confused, "Summoning circle…?"

Cyborg said, "Yeah. You knew where Draneyeth Cain's shrine was because of the summoning triangle on the world map."

Shaking her head lightly, she said, "I didn't use a summoning circle."

Starfire asked, "If not a circle for summoning, then, what method did you use?"

"…" Raven bit her lip and folded her arms, not wanting to say anything that could be used against her.

Sara walked over to her and said, hushing her voice, "Raven… What did you do…?"

Raven moved her lips, not saying anything aloud. Though the others couldn't see her because of her hood, Sara was close enough to see her thin, pale lips form words she dreaded to hear.

"Verona was Max's birth city…"
