Robin looked down at his gloved hands and then at the communicator sitting in between his legs. The top was flipped up, the screen a mass of static. He'd been waiting for Raven to contact him but she had yet to. Cyborg, Starfire, and Beast Boy were currently looking around the entire city for their lost teammate without success. The kid who'd caused her disappearance still had yet to be found; truly, Robin doubted if either the lost Titan or the boy would be found. Starfire was the first to walk into the large 'living' room of the tower, her red-head hung low.
"Any luck?" Robin asked. Starfire looked up, her huge green eyes filled with tears.
"Friend Raven is lost!" She suddenly wailed out.
"I was afraid you'd say that." Robin said following a sigh. He let his head fall again, holding back the tears that stung their way up to his eyes.

Raven had been traveling with Kagome and the others a while until the sky began to darken. She looked up at the number of stars already present. This was five hundred years into the past so not even the sky would be the same as the one her friends would be looking upon now. Night had fully fallen when there was a fire blazing brightly in the center of the circle the group sat it. Kilala was curled up on Sango's lap, her huge eyes closed in sleep. This place reminded Raven of the forest outside of Jump City. She'd fought many battles there but there had also been many good times there, as well. Her only true family had been her teammates in the Teen Titans and maybe she no longer even had them.
"Raven?" Kagome's soft voice pulled her from her thoughts as she looked down from the sky into the faces of her new companions. "Um, are you okay?" Raven only nodded before pulling her hood up over her purple hair.
"You know, Raven, if ever you need comforting I'm here." The Demon Princess looked over at Miroku who was leaning far too close to her.
"Get...away...from...me." She practically growled.
"Hey, Raven." It was now Sango's voice which brought her back. "If you want to get home I'm sure Kagome can take you to the well she uses." Raven plastered a confused look on her face and looked between Sango and Kagome.
"A...well?" Kagome nodded a huge smile overtaking her face.
"The well is how I can go back and forth between my home and here. It's a...I guess a portal that links the two times. You could just use it to get back to our time and call your friends to pick you up." Kagome explained all the while keeping an upbeat lilt to her voice. Raven pondered this. If Robin were here he'd say that it seemed to simple. Something had to be wrong somewhere. Starfire would be blissfully unaware of any danger and Cyborg and BB would want to try it just for the fun of being tossed between times.
"Uhg." She groaned. She really needed to stop paying so much attention to them. She'd even taken up emotions to mimick her friends. After a moment of contemplating, she finally looked up and realized they'd been awaiting an answer. Putting on a small smile she nodded. "Thank you." Kagome returned the smile and nodded.

A curled finger rested against his full, straight-lined lips. His four yellow eyes looked into another part of the world where he saw something disturbing. The flesh and blood he would not have for another five hundred years was conversing with mere mortals and a half-demon. Looking farther into his own future, a grimace came to his face. He needed to send her back to her own time so he could later use her as his portal. Smiling, many thoughts played in his head. Maybe it was time to visit the son of an old acqaintance of his...

Rin had long ago curled up into the furs and folds of his tail when Sesshomaru felt something...odd near him. He didn't want to wake Rin but yet he couldn't walke a ways to see the bearer of this energy if she slept on his tail. After a moment's hesitation, he finally lifted her slightly and pulled his tail from under her and headed out. He wouldn't be gone too long. As the Demon Lord walked, the feeling became stronger and stronger until it, and he, stopped all together. From a ways away was a figure drenched in black cloaks and bathed in the light of the moon. The head of the figure looked up and Sesshomaru caught sight of four glowing yellow eyes peeking out from under the darkness of the hood.
"How dare you show your face on my father's land." Sesshomaru growled softly. A voice deeper than his own laughed, no rather chuckled, as he took a step forward.
"I suppose I am not actually showing my face on his land." Picking up on the 'humor' Sesshomaru simply ignored it and walked closer. "I have a propostion for you. I think you will find it rather appealing."
"I find nothing about you appealing. Now leave!" As the Demon Lord said it, his hand reached for the hilt of his sword and he drew it slightly from its sheath just enough for the moon to glint off the blade.
"If you give me a moment of your time, Dog Demon, I will leave and you'll never look upon me again." Sesshomaru seemed to contemplate this, growling low in his throat. He let out a rather long sigh, pulling his hand from his sword and crossing the said hand over his belly. The figure smiled within his hood; Sesshomaru felt that smile tingle his bones and sting his spine. "Someone has come into this realm who should not be here. I wish for you to remove her and make sure she can not come back." Brows drawn together, Sesshomaru's dormant curiosity got the better of him and he found himself asking why it was important that this person be removed. A sigh escaped the other man's mouth, though it couldn't be seen, and he reluctantly told the much younger man something spiraling around the truth. "She is a danger to my future plans."
"Then tell me why I would stop her." The younger man said it more as a mock than a question.
"If you do not then the lives of all demons will be affected."
"And how, Trigon, do I know if you speak the truth? You're not exactly one to keep your word or speak truth."
"Find her. See for yourself and then call me when you have decided to help me."
"If." Sesshomaru hissed out the word as Trigon simply vanished before him.

The sound of yelling and screaming brought Raven to the fingertips of consciousness. Thinking she was at home, she screamed out for Beast Boy and Cyborg to shut up so she could sleep. Much to her pleasure...and shock...the screaming stopped. When her eyes opened just slivers it was for the others to look upon her with curious stares. The sunlight penetrated her eyes and then the memories of the previous day came back and she groaned wishing she'd had a pillow to bury her head under. As she sat up and brushed her fingers through her short hair, the fox demon called Shippou stood in front of her holding out a piece of cooked fish next to a helping of rice in a small bowl. It took a minute for her brain to process what was happening but Shippou got tired of holding out the bowl and just set it in front of the newest member of their odd collection of friends.
From the day before, Raven had learned that Miroku was a flirtatious (duh) monk with something in his right hand known as the wind tunnel. Shippou was simply a fox demon who tagged along. Sango was a demon slayer; Kagome happend to be a reincarnated prietess who had pinned Inuyasha to a tree years ago and Kagome had set him free. Finally, Inuyasha was a half-demon who, with the help of Kagome, Sango, Miroku, Shippou, and the cat demon Kilala searched for the Shikon Jewel shards so he could put them together and wish to become a full-fledged demon like his older half brother Sesshomaru. Raven had told them she was a Teen Titan and Kagome filled them in on who the Titans were. After that the others seemed less reluctant to have her with them, of course, for Miroku who had excepted her the first moment he laid eyes on her...uh...her. Today Kagome had promised to help Raven find the well and journey back to her own time to reunite with her friends, the other members of the Teen Titans. After breakfast and a ceremonial sitting of Inuyasha, the group headed off toward the well.

(AN: I am soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
sorry it took me so long to update. For a while now I haven't had access to the internet and then there's just...other stuff. Anyway this chapter kinda jumps around...a lot. It fills you in on what's happend just in case you don't want to read through the other chaps. Yes, I know so unoriginal having Trigon as the bad guy here (for those Inuyasha fans who also like Teen Titans) but I'm just adding a twist. Don't worry, everything will re-connect with the series up to The End with the yadda-yadda...Trigon getting his ass kicked by a girl, much less his daughter. I figured that since Raven has that little peeping into the future thing she could at least get it from her dad. Anyway, I can't gaurantee that I'll update soon. I might not have access to the 'net for a while again. Just bear with me here. Again, for those of you who actually like this fic even if you're not too happy with me, heh, I'm sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo sorry I haven't updated.
