Chapter 9 Training the Hard Way and Another Conversation between Siblings

Chaos Wolf returned to the tower to see the titans goofing off which disgusted Chaos Wolf. Cy-Borg and Beast Boy were playing video games with Terra and Starfire watching them. Chaos Wolf calmly went over and turned off the television getting protests from the four titans. Chaos Wolf ordered them into the training room. He went to get Robin and Raven. When he found them, he asked them to follow him to the training room. Once there he had the titans train without using their powers. He kept pushing them on forcing them to over their limits multiple times. He had them do thousand of push-ups, sit-ups, pull-ups, jumping jacks, laps, and martial arts' katas. By the time they were done, they were ready to collapse. Chaos Wolf informed them that they would train like this everyday. The titans groaned open hearing that since they knew that they were screwed. Chaos Wolf told them that everyone but Raven could go and relax.

Chaos Wolf asked Raven if there was café with poetry that she would like to go to tonight. Raven said yes and went into her room to find something else beside her uniform to change into after her took a shower. After half an hour, Raven showed up in the family room. Chaos Wolf told her to pick which café she wanted to go to for tonight. Raven asked if they could go to her favorite café, which is a very depressing one. (Author's Notes- come on you had to know that one was coming, especially since this is Raven we are talking about. It's also no surprise Chaos Wolf agreed with her this is Raven's older brother we're talking about hear.) Chaos Wolf told Raven to get in the car that he borrowed from Robin and drove to the part of town the café was located in. Once they were inside of the café the found a booth and sat down. They sat in silence drinking herbal tea and listening to poetry. After a few hours, they went back to the tower to meditate. After they were done meditating they left the roof and headed to Raven's room. Upon entering Raven picked up her book from the nightstand and laid down on the bed to read. Chaos Wolf decided to exercise so he started to do push-ups with one finger. After about half an hour, Raven decided to ask her brother a question.

"So what will you do plan on doing once you are strong enough to win your one man war against Vulture and his forces," Raven inquired

"I might go back to where I was born and be a hero there," Chaos Wolf replied "I might go back to one of the dimensions that I have visited in the past. Who knows I might decide to stay here with you and the others."

"I would like it if you stayed here Chaos Wolf," Raven said, "Though if you go to one of these dimensions you have been to in the past I would like to go with you."

"Yes I promise you can come with me Raven though you are sadly mistaken if you think I'm still in this alone," Chaos Wolf responded "All of the dimensions that I have been to have different heroes or heroines with their own unique powers and they have all agreed to fight with me even if it means their death." "They all knew that the odds are strongly against them but they didn't care at all in fact all they cared about was helping a friend who wanted to fight alone and surely meet his death in a hopeless battle against unbelievable odds." "I refused their offer because I wouldn't let them fight and lose their lives but as time went on I started to value their want to help me that I asked them that after all that had happened if they would still fight by my side." "Their answer left me stunned because after everything that had happened they were still willing to help me they were just waiting for me to open my eyes to the fact that they never left my side especially her."

"Oh really who was this girl you just mentioned," Raven asked, "I thought you were in love with that other girl."

"Yes you are right but that was my pet name for the girl," stated Chaos Wolf "She was very beautiful with a slight temper and spoke her mind." "I had to leave her but I told her I would be back for her one day but now our father has said she has died." "However I can feel it in my heart that she is alive and one day I will be reunited with her, who knows maybe you will be able to meet her someday."

"She seems like a wonderful person and just the type to get you to calm down and be a normal person," Raven said

"Yes she is exactly like that but I can not be a normal person until Vulture has been killed," Chaos Wolf replied, "She knew this and she understood what was going on but she was still willing to stay by my side."

"Well its getting late I'll see you in the morning Chaos Wolf," said Raven

"Ok Raven good night and try not to have any dreams about Trigon tonight ok," Chaos Wolf replied

They turned off the lights to go to sleep unaware of what was going to happen tomorrow and how it would change their lives as well as the lives of the other titans.
