All right next chapter. Thank you everybody that reviewed it really makes my day when I see people liked my story! I hope I got this chapter up quick enough. Sorry for the hard to pronounce names in this chapter, I hope that the pronunciations help. Just to let you know I had this chapter written up a few days ago but my computer went on the fuzz. I have been trying like every other hour (No kidding, I really have been) to see if it works but I haven't had any luck till now. Sorry for the delay.

A huge shadowy figure sat on its throne in an old abandoned warehouse. A smaller figure bowed at its feet informing its master of the latest occurrences.

"Where is she now?" asked the large figure

"She is with a group of teens in Jump City known as the Teen Titans. They are the protectors of the city and guard it from evil."

"Are they all?" it asked with a sneer

"Other than the police, yes, they are the only ones to stand against you, Master"

"Perfect, it will be a simple task to retrieve my daughter from them. I might also get the chance to have some 'fun' with the city. Send Corroc (Core-rock) to retrieve her, and tell him that I want her here bowing at my feet within three days time or else. He will know what I mean by 'or else'."

"Yes, master. Is that all that you require?"

"Just one more thing. Tell me how did my daughter fall into there hands in the first place? Was she not supposed to be retrieved in that good forsaken forest?"

"…"

"TELL ME"

"Um…well…you see…" he stuttered "Icaro (Ic-R-O) failed"

"What?!?! Bring him to me immediately!" bellowed the figure.

"Yes, master," said the smaller figure slinking away only to return a second later with a red-cloaked man that looked scared out of his wits. The smaller shadow threw the red-cloaked man at the huge figures feet and disappeared, obviously not wanting to be around when his master released his rage. The red-cloaked man stumbled and landed on his knees in front of the giant figure.

"Well what do we have here, tell me what did I send you out to do?"

"My task was to go to the forest outside of the city and bring back Raven, your daughter."

"And did you?"

"…"

"WELL?"

"no" he whispered

"What was that? I did not quite hear you"

"no" he said a little louder.

"What? You must learn to speak up"

"NO, I did not" yelled the man

"Ah, the truth comes out."

"Now, tell me. Why did you not bring her back?"

"I was attacked by a colorful mysterious boy."

"Why did you not simply fight him off?"

"I could not."

"Why not?"

"I was not strong enough"

"Don't give my that excuse"

"But, he just appeared and started attacking me. He was obviously a very trained fighter!"

"Ok, if he is the trained fighter then what did I hire you for?" he bellowed.

"…"

"You have failed me Icaro and you will pay"

"Please master spare me", the red-capped man begged, "It will never happen again.

"No, it will not"

"No, please master, spare me… ARRRGGG" he yelled in pain as a red aura surrounded him and began to, what looked like, pull him apart limb by limb. The figure just laughed, an evil and demonic laugh. All of a sudden the aura faded leaving the man, still alive, knelling on all fours.

"You are lucky that my power is week without my daughter, if I was at my full power I assure you that you would be dead right now. No matter, maybe it is for the best, I still need you. You will accompany Corroc to Jump city and you WILL capture my daughter. Or I assure you I will NOT show pity and you will die a slow, painful death!" the figure bellowed.

"Y-Y-Yes master, thank you" said the red-cloaked man disappearing into the shadows.

"Oh, those fool. No matter I will soon have control. I will take the city and my daughter, yes soon Raven will once again be mine", it growled.

So, how did you like it? I hope it was ok. I know that it was short but I am trying to update as fast as I can (computer problems and all). I have already started the next chapter so it should be out soon (IF I don't have any more computer problems)! Can you tell that I am really ticked at my computer for messing up, because I AM!!!!!!!!!! Till then, thanks for reading!

If you liked it even a shred please review. Or you can review and tell me you hated it, if you find it appropriate, which I hope you don't.
