End Recap

Gar got up and walked away quietly. If you had to walk past him then, even In the dark, you would have been able to see the tears that were slipping silently down his face. He raised his hand to wipe them away but the salty trails still remained. "What do you see in him Raven? He's just a stuck up jock that don't know anything," he sobbed leaning against a wall and slowly sliding down. "Why?" he cried. He kept repeating this word over and over. Finally he got up and slowly walked back to his house.

"Hi honey," his mother called from the kitchen. "You missed supper. Do you want anything to eat?" she asked.

"No Mom," Gar muttered. "I don't feel very hungry right now. Anyway, I have a load of homework to do," he lied.

"Alright honey," she said concerned. "There's tofu in the fridge if you get hungry."

"Yes Mom," Gar sighed and stumbled up the steps. Even if he did have homework he wouldn't be able to concentrate. He sighed and pulled on his pajamas. He looked at his walls that were plastered with pictures of Raven. "I will get you Raven. I will save you from him," he spat the word out like It was a foul curse word. He made a promise, and this was one promise he intended to keep.

Dick walked back to his bike and got on. 'She was right there I should have kissed her,' he thought, mentally kicking himself for not taking the chance. 'No, it's better that I didn't, she probably would have wanted to know what I was doing and if I told her she wouldn't have felt the same way. She's just being nice helping me out with my language and she only went out with me as a friend,' he tried to convince himself. He continued to debate what he should do and before he knew it he was back at Wayne Manor.

He walked the bike into the garage and then walked into the house. He made his way to the kitchen, still in deep thought, and walked right into Bruce Wayne.

"Sorry Bruce," Dick said. "I didn't see you."

"You didn't see me?" Bruce repeated slowly, raising an eyebrow. "Dick I called out to you. Are you feeling ok?"

"Ya Bruce, I'm fine," Dick said, mentally cursing himself for not paying attention to where he was going. "I was just thinking. That's all."

"You were thinking," Bruce repeated. "About what? Is it about school? Or about your marks? Or about how you are going to bring up your language mark," Bruce said angrily holding out a piece of paper. Dick took a closer look at the paper and his heart sank. It was his report card. He had forgot that it was in the mail.

"Ya, about that-" Dick started but was cut off.

"There will be no going out with friends, girls or anybody else. You will not be doing anything until those marks come up," Bruce said.

"That's not fair!" Dick exclaimed. "One of the girls that I'm hanging out with-"

"That's the problem! Your spending too much time with girls and your friends and your schoolwork is suffering because of it!" Bruce said in an eerily calm, but Dick knew that this was just the calm before the storm.

"Will you let me finish!" Dick yelled. He always blew his top first. "She's going to help me bring my marks up!"

"And exactly how much time have you spent studying as of now?" Bruce asked, his voice slowly growing in volume.

"Well...none yet," Dick said, "but we are going to. She's going to-"

"YOU MEAN YOU HAVE BEEN GOING OUT WITH A GIRL WHO'S SUPPOSED TO HELPING YOU WITH YOUR SCHOOLWORK AND YOU HAVEN'T EVEN STARTED YET! WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN DOING?" Bruce bellowed and Dick winced.

"Well we've-"

"I don't want to know what you two have been doing. You will not leave this house besides going to school until those marks come up," Bruce said.

"But what am I going to tell Raven. She's going to help me and give me some pointers."

"And I suppose that she'll do the work for you to," Bruce said rolling his eyes.

"I doubt it. She said herself I have to do everything she's just going to help me," Dick said angrily.

"She can come here and help you. But," Bruce said when Dick started to interrupt, "you will either work in the living room or if you are in your room then someone will check on you."

"Fine," Dick said in a defeated tone. "I'll see if she can come over tomorrow."

Little did he know that he may not get the chance to.

Raven walked into the house after Dick left. 'He's so sweet,' she thought. 'I wish he had kissed me there. No he probably don't even like me like that,' she thought, hoping that it wasn't true. "Mom I'm home," she called as she took off her jacket. "Mom," she called again when she got no reply. "Mom," she called agin as she walked to the kitchen to see if there was a note. There was none so she grabbed an apple. "Mom, where are you?" she called as she walking into the living room. She gasped when she saw her mother, sister and stepfather on the floor in the living room. They all had dried blood on the side of their heads.

Raven got down on her knees and started to shake her mother trying to wake her up. She spotted the phone lying a few feet away and scrambled to get it. She picked up the receiver but there was no dial tone. She looked down and saw the line was cut. She was about to turn around and run to the neighbors house to call for help but a cold hand clamped over her mouth.

Her eyes widened as the hand released her. She turned around and her breath caught in her throat. There stood her father. "NOOOOO!" she yelled and tried to run away but her father caught her arm. He pulled her up to his chest and held her there as his free hand went to his pocket and he pulled out a damp strong smelling cloth.

"This time you won't get away," he said and chuckled as she struggled. He held the cloth over Raven's mouth and nose and she struggled not to breathe in but soon the fumes got to her and she could feel herself weakening. She went limp and her father turned her around. Her smirked as her eyes slipped shut and she went unconscious.

He grabbed a some rope and long pieces of cloth. He tied her arms behind her back and tied her legs together. He balled up a piece of cloth then stuck it in her mouth and then blindfolded her. Satisfied, he slung her over her shoulder and walked out to the waiting car where the rest of his cult were waiting.

"Step on it," he muttered to the driver as he crawled in after he tossed Raven in.

"You got it Deathstroke," the driver said as he started the car and took off.

The next day as Dick walked into the school nearly everyone was pointing at him and muttering. He went up to Vic but before he could ask what everybody was talking about the bell rang. Dick walked to home room and sat in his seat. As Mod walked in Dick noticed that Raven wasn't there. He was beginning to wonder when to PA suddenly crackled to life. "Would Mr. Richard Grayson please report to the office," it said then went out again. Dick looked up startled. Mod looked unwilling to let on of his students go but did so anyway.

Dick got to the office and the secretary ushered him in. He looked around and was surprised to see two police officers talking to Mr. Blood. As the door closed they looked up.

"Are you Richard Grayson, more commonly known as Dick?" one of them asked.

"Yes," Dick replied hesitantly.

"Is it true that were out with Raven Roth last night?" the officer asked again.

"Yes I did. We went out for pizza and a movie," he said taking a closer look at the officer's name tag and discovering her name was Officer Jessica Whey.

"And you dropped her off right after?" she asked again.

"Yes."

"Did you notice anything suspicious"

"No. Now I'd like to know why your asking me all these questions about Raven. Did something happen to her?" he asked. Millions of horrible things that could have happened to her rushed through his head. But nothing could have prepared him for what the officers said.

"Your friend Raven has been kidnapped," the other officer said. "We got a call from a passerby who was walking and saw the front door open. They went inside and Raven's parents and sister were knocked out, the phone lines were cut and there was an apple just dropped on the ground. We dusted it and it had her fingerprints on it. If you know anything at all you need to tell us," the officer said.

"I don't know very much about her really, we only started hanging out a few days ago. If you want to find out more about her then you should probably ask Terra Wilson or Garfield Logan, they're two of her best friends," Dick managed to stutter out.

Mr. Blood motioned for Dick to sit down and he sank into a chair, as they Raven's other friends.

When Terra and Gar got there the officers told them everything again. As Dick heard it a second time it made it seem much more real. He had them tuned out until he heard Terra start to talk and what he heard made his blood run cold and his heart stop beating for a moment.

"...her actual father is Craig Roth..." he knew everything about Craig Roth. Dick's eyes widened and he passed out.
