Robin, Star, BB, Cyborg: What!

Man: how did you know?

Raven: easy. The man you are trying to impersonate always wears a bandana. He never takes it off.

Man: drat. Ohh well. I still have one bargaining chip.

He backed away giving the team a better view of what was behind him. Tied to a hook above a vat of molten metal was a girl of about 15. Golden brown curls cascaded over the green-brown eyes. She had a slightly annoyed look on her face.

Man: here's the deal Raven. Go on a date with me tonight, or your old friend will, well, use your imagination.

Robin: Hold on a second.

He turned off the screen.

Robin: Raven, what is going on? Who is that guy? Who is that girl? And why does he want to go on a date with you?

Raven: to answer your first and last questions, I believe this is a badly orchestrated trap. I think he is just a normal villain in the employ of that demon who tried to kill me earlier. She—

Cyborg: hold up. That thing we fought today, that was a demon?

Raven: yes. That was a pure demon. He was obviously summoned to attack the team, specifically me. To answer Robin's other question, that woman, Star, is one of my teachers. She obviously pretended to get captured to lure the demon out.

Beast Boy: So what do we do?

Raven (sounding dejected and annoyed): I go out with him.

Robin: I don't think that's a very good idea.

Raven: don't worry. If this guy has Star, all her friends and sibs know. I also know that they know this guy is trying to get me to walk into this trap. Star can transfer images mentally. They definitely know. They will be there to protect me.

Robin: Are you sure?

Raven: positive.

The screen flickers on again. The man's face appears.

Man: have you made you decision yet?

Raven: yes. I'll go out with you.

The man smiles nastily.

Man: good. Meet me at that new club that just opened outside of town at seven.

He starts to reach to turn off the screen.

Raven: hold it (man pauses) what is your name?

Man smiles nastily.

Man: Call me Nightblade.

The screen goes blank.


Also a good place to stop.
