A.N: This is for everyone who reviewed, you know who you are!

A shocked silence greeted Crow's words, the Titians, all except for Raven, found themselves paralyzed with disbelief. There had never been any indication of Raven having a sister, and that they knew that she did it was making their heads spin. Raven spoke, shattering their paralysis.

"Of course I've missed you Crow, but the pain of your death is not crippling as it was before. I moved on with my life, only to find you alive and seemingly well. Although in the service of our father, I'm ashamed to see." Raven said, her eyes lingering on the twelve-point star that secured her sisters cloak. Her father's coat of arms, she remembered, was a bloody golden sword inside a silver Twelve-point star on a black backdrop. Crow laughed again, throwing back her head as she did so, obviously not worried about the Titans attacking her.

"You always where foolish, not joining my Lord Fathers crusade." She said at length, mirth still lacing her tone. Raven's eyes flashed with barely controlled anger.

"You mean his beautified genocide? Yes how foolish of me to not join him in his universe wide holocaust. You are the fool, Crow, or don't you remember what happened last time you failed him? Don't you remember Corisor? Don't you remember the prophecy? Or has your idiocy wiped them from your weak mind?" By this time Raven was yelling and near by objects where exploding with increasing speed. For the first time scene meeting Crow one of the other Titans spoke up, Beast Boy.

"Raven," He said quietly, laying a hand on her shoulder. "Raven calm down, before you hurt someone." She glanced at him and for a moment her angry violet eyes bored into his fearful green ones, then her eyes closed as Raven took a few deep, calming breaths. When she opened her eyes again they where full of the familiar calm that Raven worked so hard to maintain. Beast Boy offered her a small smile, which she returned after a moment's hesitation. He took his hand from her shoulder as she turned back to look at Crow, who had watched the exchange with a curious expression on her face.

"You've changed." Crow said quietly, something akin to sorrow in her voice and eyes.

"Yes I have, and so have you... why have you come here Crow?" Raven asked with a sigh, her eyes and face showing no emotion. Reminded of her mission, Crow straitened, her eyes growing cold once more. A moment later she spoke.

"Our Lord Father wishes to extend one last chance for you to join-"

"No." Raven cut her off firmly.

"But-"

"No."

"Raven I really think-"

"For the third and last time Crow, no." Raven's tone left no room for argument. Crow sighed seemingly resigned.

"Very well I must go tell my lord of your decision." Crow turned to go, but stopped and, without turning around, said quietly,

"I have one more message to give you, sister."

"I want no more messages form that demon you call father." Raven said acidly.

"Its not from him, its from Corisor." Crow replied, still speaking barely above a whisper. Raven gave a strangled kind of gasp, before getting herself under control once more.

"Give it to me." She demanded fiercely. Crow, still without turning around, tossed a small black box over her shoulder, which Raven caught easily. Without another word Crow departed, leaving Raven staring at the box in silent contemplation.

"Raven." The voice broke threw her thoughts, and she turned to face her teammates, her friends.

"You owe us some answers." Robin said firmly.
