Disclaimer: I dont own the Teen Titans or anything in this story

Thank you for the email Mike, I do read some of the comics but for my story, I feel twisting the story to fit my plot, that is my goal, to make this story as entertaining as possible for the readers and keep with the personalities of the first story, so I am sorry to say my characters will go through changes created by me, not by the comic book creators. Thanks for the review but I really am basing my characters on how I want to make this series turn out.

GOTHAM SAFE HOUSE

Sure enough, BB and Raven arrived at seven in the morning at the Gotham safe house where months ago they had confessed there love to each other. They entered the small apartment and Raven promptly went to her old room. She arrived with a piece of paper and walked to the phone. Beast Boy just sat at the kitchen table and watched her get the paper.

She dialed a number and after a few moments said, "Batman?"

"Yes," the familiar monotone voice replied.

"Its us, me and Beast Boy, we are here to see the boy," Raven told Batman

"Come to Wayne Manor, Bruce Wayne is a friend of mine and he is taking care of the boy, one of the Batcaves is there and that is where me and the boy are. Tell the butler who answers the door Batman called," Batman explained the directions to Raven. He was of course lieing about more than one batcave or that Bruce Wayne was his friend, but he needed to keep his secrets.

"All right, I think I can teleport us there," Raven said as she hung up. Like many of her relationships, except her marriage, they had gone very cold. Her friendship with Batman had changed abruptly from a close friendship into a formal relationship of people of the same profession.

"Beast Boy, lets go see this guy, rest, and get out of here and to the storm brewing back home," Raven told her husband, who was still tired and was dozing off.

"All right, lets go," Beast Boy said with a yawn, he walked next to her and they were enveloped in a black sphere.

WAYNE MANOR

They arrived outside the front door and Raven knocked on the door, she was barely standing, she had expanded so much energy. A butler opened the door, he was short, skinny, balding, and had a formal moustache. He said, "Hello," in a British accent

"Batman sent for us," Raven said straight off. The English butler simply nodded and lead them without a word down the hallways of the huge mansion. He is good, knows what is business and pleasure right away. Raven thought as the butler lead the way. He went to a clock in the study and opened it, inside was a staircase.

"You can find Batman and master Drake downstairs training," the butler explained as he bowed and left the two Titans to go down the stairs.

"After you my dear," Beast Boy said as he bowed submissively to Raven.

"Knock it off, we have a job to do," Raven replied coldly

"All right, all right, lets just get this done with," Beast Boy responded, he felt a little iratated that she stopped really reacting to him for a while now

They walked down the steps to a damp, cold, dark cave. When they reached the bottom they were shocked to see all the high-tech equipment, training room, and even Batman's laboratory. They however, didn't see the elucive Batman. They walked deeper in the cave.

"Jeez, you would think he would want to be comfortable at least when he is home," grumbled Beast Boy as he shivered from the cold

"It does seem excessively dark and its conditions seem…purposely set like this," Raven observed

"Ye know, I wouldn't be surprised if Batman made the cave this uncomfortable purposely," Beast Boy agreed

"Your right, I did make it like this purposely, I made it like this so I couldn't get comfortable and so I go out and patrol," Batman suddenly said, his voice amplified by the cave. Beast Boy jumped a little from fright, he didn't expect to hear that voice so soon, Raven flinched just a little, she too was caught off guard.

"Hello Titans, been a while," Batman said

"Yes, it has been six months," Raven replied in monotone, the last time Batman had met the Titans was at the funeral of Robin. Batman nodded in agreement

"However, this isn't a pleasant visit, this is a business visit," Batman told the Titans who nodded. They are different, Beast Boy hasn't cracked any jokes and Raven seems too distant Batman thought.

"How is this Tim Drake, better yet just tell us his code name," Beast Boy asked, he didn't like these word games Batman and Raven played with each other whenever they met.

"Robin," a new, youthful, but stern voice declared. The two Titans looked to see Robin, however he was different from the Robin they knew. This Robin didn't have a yellow and black cape, he had a black one. His green pants were forest green, his red was a dark red, almost violet, and the yellow was now a dark, almost golden color. His hair wasn't spiked like the last Robin, his hair was simply combed. He was physically smaller, and shorter than the last Robin was when he died.

"How did you get a new Robin in six months! Robin said it took several years before you let him go on his own," Beast Boy asked, kind of stunned at this new revelation.

"Tim Drake has been training with martial arts experts for much of his life, he was found by martial arts experts in Japan, his parents disappeared. I found him three months ago and offered him the job, he has been practicing in his only weakness, detective works, he still isn't as good as the old Robin, but he is good," Batman told the two Titans.

"Beast Boy, interrogate the new Robin, I have to discuss something with Batman," Raven told her husband in a monotone voice

Beast Boy hated it when she did that, he hated it when she spoke in monotone even though she could express her emotions, and he hated how she ordered him like he was a little child or baby. However, he just smiled and said cheerfully, "Sure!" as his wife and Batman walked away from the two boys.

Raven and Batman walked a good distance so neither of the boys could hear, or see the reactions of the dark crusader and the dark empathy. Raven looked at Batman with a stone, cold face and said: "I know why you made a new Robin," she told Batman.

Batman, a little surprised and confused at the comment asked, "What do you mean why I created a new Robin," Batman asked cautiously, but still keeping his trade mark dark voice

"I know you feel responsible for the first Robin going over the edge because he was trying to escape your shadow. You feel if you hadn't taught him to pursue his enemies relentlessly until they give up or are brought down, Robin wouldn't have been hunting Slade alone that night and wouldn't have had the serum injected in him. So, you don't want to miss train the first Robin like you felt you had, and you don't want him in your shadows," Raven told Batman bluntly, her monotone voice, and cold stare hadn't changed at all.

Batman also kept a stone face like her and he said: "I do feel guilty about Dick's death, but I am not just sending him over so I don't get responsible for the next Robin's mistakes or success, I am sending him to the Titans to hopefully put you guys together. From what we hair at the Watchtower, the Titans are a lot more aggressive, dark, and out of touch, admit it, things aren't going well in Jump City at all," Batman responded

"What do you mean things aren't going wrong, Jump City's crime rate continues to plummet, the city is safe," Raven responded after thinking on how to refute Batman, he was as usual right, but Raven still kept her poker face on

Batman, also keeping his poker face continued on the slight advantage he had in the conversation, "Yes, the crime rate does go down when you mercilessly beat the criminals to the ground not only physically, but also mentally. I mean, you nearly killed Cinderblock, and messed with his mind so much he is scared of the dark now. Superheroes don't torture there villains, nor do they beat them after they give up," Batman said referring in the last remark to what the newspapers called the "Mumbo Incident."

"All right, I will admit we have been having problems…" Raven spoke softly, looking down, she was admitting defeat

"What types of problems are infecting the team?" Batman asked, he sincerely wanted to help the Titans through these trying times.

"Lets see, Cyborg's idea of getting over the death is to work us harder than even Robin on his crazed Slade hunts, also he likes to force the Titans to admit his leadership almost everyday, he is confused on who he really is. He is either Cyborg, or a new Robin type leader, he needs to pick one of the two, we cant go on with this hybrid version. Starfire is pretty much falling apart, she cries constantly, her eyes are almost always reddish green from tears, she also has been spending a lot of time by her self. She has a weird ritual of taking one of Robin's things and taking it to some shrine she has set up some where on an island in the ocean, she also wont let us touch or move any of Robin's things claiming we will forget him," Raven added

"Sounds bad, what about you and Beast Boy?" Batman asked her, Batman had a degree in psychology and was trying to understand Raven's complete change in attitude. He wanted to know why she seemed to have given up on expressing herself through emotions.

"What about us?" Raven asked confused

"How is your marriage?" Batman stated frankly

"It hasn't moved nor has it gone backwards, we are in the same spot as we were six months ago, the only difference is I sense some tension rising between us…" Raven said sounding a little distant

"What kind of tension?" Batman asked now very curious

"Well, as the months have gone on Beast Boy has been snapping at pretty much everyone except me, he has shown attitude to everyone except me, I think he is expressing his feelings about me by letting it out on those around him…" Raven continued in her distant voice

"Glad we had this talk, now before you leave with Robin II I want a word with Beast Boy," Batman told Raven. Raven nodded, went to get Beast Boy, as Beast Boy walked to where Batman was he heard Raven tell the new Robin to get his things ready.

Beast Boy turned the corner and was confronted by the dark knight, Beast Boy jumped back a little, the Batcave really brought out the darkness of Batman.

"Hello Beast Boy," Batman told the green changeling

"Yeah, hi, what did you need to ask me?" Beast Boy asked, sounding a little annoyed that he was being delayed.

"I know you are having this attitude problem because some of Raven's actions and behaviours is bothering you to the core. I know you struggle to keep it in you and that is why it is being let out like this at your friends and strangers, however it is not being let out on the person who needs to know it most," Batman bluntly told Beast Boy

"Okay, what should I do about it," Beast Boy asked, he needed an answere, he needed advice on this issue.

"Talk to her tonight, you have to get this done with before you hurt someone for no reason at all or worse yet hurt Raven," Batman advised the young Titan

Beast Boy's eyes looked alarmed when he heard "hurt Raven" and he said, "Thanks, I will do what you say, you are pretty good with this stuff," Beast Boy told Batman gratefully.

Nodding, Batman said, "Go to Raven and good luck, tell everyone the Justice League says hello and good luck with the new Robin," Batman said as Beast Boy walked up the stairs.

He looked outside to see it was late in the afternoon, wow, we were here for a while. He hadn't realized so much time had passed. He walked to the front door and saw Raven with Robin at the front door. He looks a lot like the real Robin though.
