*Again I have to say that I do not own the rights to Teen Titans or Spiderman, however the plot is mine*

Much to Raven's surprise she slept quite soundly after he had left and she had found that after what had happened it was easier to think about him. That morning Raven awoke around 10:45 due to the late hour at which she actually went to sleep, and after stripping out of her pajamas went into her personal bathroom and started taking a soothing shower mentally setting herself up for another day. Raven sighed in contentment as she turned off her shower and after drying herself off, put on her normal outfit. Checking herself over in the mirror she found nothing out of the ordinary and decided to head down, favorite book in hand. Everyone was waiting for her and they waved as they headed out the door.

"So . . . Reading' Poe again Raven?" Cyborg asked, tossing a football in the air as he walked.

"Yes, it happens to contain a poem I enjoy." Raven replied in her usual monotonistic voice.

"Quote the Raven nevermore eh?" Robin chirped up.

"Ha . . . Ha . . . Ha . ." Raven said dryly as they neared the park. Everyone had a good chuckle at Robin's joke except Beast Boy who was rolling on the ground clutching his sides. He then stood up and looked around.

"Wait . . . I don't get it." The rest of the Titans sighed shaking their heads and went on their way, all the while BB asking what it meant until they got to the park. Raven found a comfortable spot under a shady tree and opened her book barely paying attention to the rest of the Titans playing football.

"Oh wow!!" Raven snapped out of a daze, and her eyes twitched. ~that must be him~ she thought but when she turned around seeing only a normal teen with a camera and her face, for an instant, showed disappointment.

"I'm sorry . . . I guess you were expecting someone else." The boy looked genuinely sorry. Raven stood up and brushed herself off turning towards the boy. He was about average height with short, spiky brown hair and blue eyes. Raven felt somewhat bad because the boy looked kinda nerdy especially with his glasses on.

"Don't worry about it . . it's really no big, deal so who are you?" By now the rest of the Titans had moved to the tree Raven had been sitting under.

"Oh I'm Peter Parker, I just moved here and I'm a photographer for the local paper. I though you were the Teen Titans, you know the super heroes, so I was wondering if I could get some pictures?"

"Pictures? Hell yea you can!!" Both Cyborg and BB jumped forward and started flexing in front of a somewhat stunned Parker who was having a horrible time hiding his laughter. Raven felt very similar of course she was a lot better at hiding it.

"Well what are you waiting for?" Cyborg asked. This snapped Peter out of his stupor and chuckling a bit said.

"Of course." He brought the camera to his eyes and started snapping picture after picture.

"OK now I'd like some shots of the group." The Titans arranged in front of the camera and Parker took a few shots. "Now I think we should get some individual shots." Parker took shots of each member taking a few more of Raven than anyone else which wasn't noticed, except by Raven who was a little curious.

"Well do you have a sufficient amount of pictures Mr. Parker?" Raven asked eyeing him suspiciously.

"Mr? oh lord don't call me that." Parker laughed. "Just call me Peter or Parker both work for me."

"I cannot thank you enough for taking our photographs Mr. . . . oh I am so sorry . . Peter." A very enthusiastic Starfire came up shaking Peter's hand as he laughed.

"You know . . . Peter . . . you seem very familiar to me . ." Raven said getting very close to Peter as if examining him under a microscope. "Have we met before?" Raven noticed it, it was faster than an instant, but she saw it. There was a glint in Peter's eye, as if he was challenging to find out who he really was but it was gone and he just smiled.

"Well I d . . ." but he couldn't get the rest of the sentence out because the tree they were standing near fell suddenly and the Titans, having super powers easily dodged it, but Peter was not fast enough and was trapped under the fallen tree.

"Oh shoot. We didn't get them, only that stupid reporter." A familiarly evil feminine voice exclaimed.

"Ahh well . . . one bug down . . .five more to go."

"Mammoth's right heh heh heh." The three members of HIVE entered looking very smug and very proud of themselves.

"You idiots are back again? well at least you're persistent but that's about it." Robin shook his head preparing to fight and Cyborg joined him up front.

"So come on and get your butts whooped." And with that the Titans leapt into action. Raven and Jynx traded energy blows and every so often Raven would use her powers to fling a bench at Jynx. Cyborg and Starfire, with their superhuman strength, dealt with Mammoth trading blow after blow while Robin and BB, who had turned into a pterodactyl, went after Gizmo.

Blasts of Dark and Pink energy were seen from miles around as Jynx and Raven battled.

"This ends now." Raven leapt away from one of Jynx's blasts.

"I couldn't agree more my little birdy." Raven growled and jumped up into the air her eyes glowing fiercely.

"Azerath . . . Metrion . . . .Zinthos!!" and two of the light posts that lined the parks gravel path flew towards a surprised Jynx and wrapped themselves around her body. Raven's eyes returned to normal and she floated back to the ground.

"You're done." As Jynx grumbled Raven turned to watch her fellow Titans. BB in his animal form had caught up with Gizmo high up in the air and sunk his talons into his cybernetic back pack leading him down, slamming him into the ground. Gizmo shook off the shock and growled as four metal legs sprung from his back and he smirked evilly at Robin.

"Come on Robin! You don't stand a chance!" Gizmo sneered as he charged Robin. Robin leapt out of the way with ease and flung two bolas at Gizmo which wrapped around a pair of legs bringing Gizmo crashing to the ground. Robin knocked Gizmo out with a sound punch to the face.

"Didn't stand a chance eh?" Robin clapped the dust from his hands and it wasn't long before Starfire and Cyborg had dealt with Mammoth. Starfire blasted and blasted Mammoth with her Star bolts, stunning Mammoth long enough for Cyborg to land a set of huge punches to Mammoth's face, incapacitating him.

Cyborg sighed as he and Starfire rejoined the group. "Well that was easy . . . .as usual. Hey what ever happened to that Peter Parker guy?" The groups eyes collectively widened and they rushed back to the fallen tree. They were stopped by a mysterious dark figure stood in there way and they couldn't even catch a glimpse of the tree that had fell on the guy.

"Hey . . .he kinda looks like. . ." Cyborg said looking at this newcomer curiously.

"Oh Spiderman . . It is quite good to see you and I must say I like your new costume very . . .uhh . . black." Starfire said running up to shake the strangers hand but as she reached the figure a vicious backhand leveled Starfire and she flew into a nearby tree. The Titans gasped in horror, and Raven was especially taken aback however before they could say anything the figure in black ran at them with incredible speed and moved almost exactly like Spiderman. He easily blocked Cyborg and Robin's punches and kicks and his agility was so advanced that nothing Raven could throw at him would even come close. The figure leapt into the air and shot the same sticky string that Spiderman had and completely enveloped Cyborg and Robin. Having finished with them the figure slowly walked towards Raven when a raging elephant grabbed the figure in his trunk and attempted to slam him to the ground, when suddenly the figure almost melted into a liquid and slipped through BB's grasp.

"What the . . ." The figure reformed and laughing punched BB right onto Starfire, the force of his punch knocking him back to original form.

"Heh heh heh . . . and now for you . . . we know he likes you . . . that is why we will use you as bait." The figure approached Raven and despite all her meditation and all her control she could not help but fear this seemingly invincible creature. The figure shot the string and fastened her to the tree she had been backing towards. The creature got close and opened its mouth revealing horribly long fangs and a snakelike tongue that was dripping with some sort of green saliva. Raven shuddered as the creature placed a clawed hand next to her face and allowed his tongue to trace down her cheeks and around her chin.

Raven could not help herself . . . she was completely afraid of this horrible being and his tongue felt like oozing death. ~I must . . . control myself . . . be . . calm~

"Azerath Metrio . . .MMPH!!" Raven now had the sticky solution covering her mouth.

"AH AH AH little bug . . . wouldn't want you hurting us." The creature smiled horribly. "And now to take you back to my . . . " Raven saw the horrible creature kicked clear out of the way and a very pissed off Spiderman. Raven had never felt such rage from anyone and Spiderman seemed to be boiling over.

"VENOM!!!!!! . . . .YOU WILL NEVER HURT ANYONE AGAIN I SWEAR IT!!!!!" Spiderman turned towards Raven and freed her from the webbing.

"I'm so sorry . . .I should have been here sooner . . .I can't forgive . . ." Raven just shook her head.

"This is no time for that . . . help me free my comrades and you will explain later." Spiderman shook his head and proceeded to wake up Starfire and Beast Boy who were incredibly groggy. Raven in turn cut Cyborg and Robin free and they got up ready to fight.

"Took you long enough Spider dude where the heck were you." Cyborg said brushing himself off.

"I'm sorry but I had a bar mitzvah to go to." Spiderman shrugged.

"Ha Ha . . . now what is that thing?" Cyborg and the rest of the Titans looked on with intent. Venom returned on top of a tree and laughed horribly making Spiderman's blood boil.

"We'll meet again Titans . . . oh and Peter . . . I'm sure you'll tell them everything right? So we'll just be going" and Venom swung off into the city.

"Peter?" All of the Titans, except for Raven, said in surprise.
