Darien came home from work late again.
"Hey hun, I decided I'm taking that job." Darien said walking in. Raven was busy cleaning a vase in the living room.
"Okay, just make sure you have the job before you resign," Raven said back.
"I was assured the job was mine. Paul turned it down, his girlfriend didn't want to leave the school she teaches at," Darien said smiling, "He is a good man, I've heard a lot about Mr. Luthor".
The vase slipped out of Ravens hand. "Luthor?"
"Yeah… L. Luthor. I told you about this yesterday hun. Are you okay? You look kind of pale." Darien said, taking her hand.
"L. Luthor…. Oh my gosh… how much does he know about us? How much information?" Raven asked frantically.
"Um… my name, your name, Arista's name…. phone number-" Daren said and Raven cut him off.
"Phone numbers are traceable. Get Arista, she is upstairs". Raven said running for the phone.
"Hun what is going on?" Darien asked nervously.
"I'll explain later just go!"
Darien called for Arista to come down stairs. Raven ran into the kitchen and pulled out her new communicator.
"Gar? Garfield!" Raven called out into her communicator.
"Rae? What is it? What's wrong?" Gar called back the second he heard her voice.
"Nothing. Nothing, everything is fine… my boyfriend got a job offer by an L. Luthor… he gave the man our phone numbers. Phones are traceable, right?" Raven said panicking.
"Rae? Calm down. Look, I'm going to come pick you up right now. You, Arista and this boyfriend of yours. Is there anyone else you are strongly associated with that would need to be kept safe?" Gar said calming. Raven could see from the communicator screen that he was already on his way to his car.
"No, no just us. Gar wait. Maybe I am over reacting. It could be a coincidence… L. Luthor could be Luke Luthor or Lucas Luthor or Larry Luthor or-"
"Rae, I'm coming. Just shut up and start packing."
Gar stayed on the line with her while she packed her stuff. Darien sat downstairs with Arista confused and nervous. Every few minutes he would ask what was going on, but Raven shushed him and continued packing. A few minutes later, Gar knocked at the door.
Raven pulled the door open quickly. "Gar." Was her only greeting.
"Raven, I demand to know what is going on NOW." Darien said, jealous she was greeting another guy at the door.
"Long story. Grab some bags and get in the car." Raven said grabbing three bags herself and walking out. Darien obeyed and got in the back seat of Gar's car with Arista next to him. Raven took the passenger seat.
"It's only a five minute drive to headquarters, are they coming or…" Gar asked quietly.
"Headquarters?" Darien said from the backseat but Raven ignored him.
"They have to come," Raven said back. Gar made a sharp left turn.
"Rae… hun you know I love you but seriously, I have to know what is going on," Darien called.
"Darien, I'll explain when we get there just trust me" Raven responded.
Gar turned onto the highway and they drove in silence. It was a while before Raven realized they weren't going towards the tower.
"Gar… where are we going? The tower is the other way," Raven asked.
"Victor's house. The tower is the first place they are going to look for us".
Again they drove in silence until they pulled up to a small square house. From the outside, the house was tall, square, with a door in the center and four window, two on the bottom and two on the top.
