So let's start with I took the liberty of mixing Damian's background. Pretty much, he had stayed with his mother and grandfather. He never liked his father. At the age of 19 after his grandfather's and mother's death, he took the place of the Demon's Head.

Raven: 27

Damian: 26


4 years ago: Tibet

Raven sat in front of the window, admiring the contrast of colors between the white clouds, the deep blue sky and the dark feathers of the Black Kites danced around in circles in the sky. She moved her gaze to the green mountains that were under the clouds, taking note of the wild yaks eating the fresh grass. She smiled faintly as she heard the cooing of turtle doves that were relaxing in the tree nearby.

Her quiet time was disturbed when she heard a familiar clang of his katana being dropped on the floor. She quickly turned to her target/fiancé as he picked up the katana and placed it in its case. He then placed it on the coffee table and looked up at Raven, giving her a loving smile and soft eyes.

Raven's insides turned as he neared her with his arms grasping out to her. She smiled back at him and placed her hands in his and pulled him towards where she was sitting giving him a passionate kiss. He returned her kiss eagerly, placing his hands on her face. As their kissing started heating up, his hands moved down to her waist pulling her up, her legs wrapping around his waist. Taking the hint, he took her to their room.


Present Time: Jump City

Appearing from the shadows, Raven used her powers to sense anyone around, yet there want no auras around. She glanced around the darkness for any movements, but there wasn't anything that seemed out of the ordinary.

Nightwing's voice was came in her ear, "Report Titans."

Raven puts her index finger over the ear piece.

Cyborg started, "There are no signs of dark matter around. The intruders may not be metahumans."

"No signs of anyone in a bird's view." Said Changeling.

Starfire added, "Agreed, there are no signs of anyone from the sky."

Finally, Raven said, "I didn't sense any living auras surrounding the building. I will be checking inside."

Hearing the voices of her friends telling her to be careful, Raven silently created a portal to go through and landing in the darkest side of the building. Taking in her surroundings, Raven used her power once again to sense any auras. Her eyebrows furrowed, and a frown appeared on her lips. She couldn't feel any anything. There must be something wrong, this was the tip that they were given from the Justice League.

She placed her index finger on the ear piece about to tell the team that there was no one inside, until a familiar voice said the name that she went by for 6 years.

"Leila Shul…"

She gasped and whispered his name.


6 years ago: Titans Tower

"Damian Al Ghul."

Raven looked through at a picture of the 21-year-old criminal. He had an expressionless face with olive skin. Green eyes that match the robes that he is wearing, his hair as dark as the feathers of the bird she was named after. She wasn't going to deny the truth, he is an attractive man. She shook her head to get those thoughts out of her head. She continued to listen to Superman as he went on about the information.

"He was given the Demon's head after the deaths of Ra's Al Ghul and Talia Al Ghul two years ago. At the start of the reign, two years ago, was also the start of the mob massacre in Asia; mob leaders and their families were mutilated and cut. They were left as warnings to other mob groups. This started affecting different cities within the country. They asked the Justice League to help, and the League of Assassins have files on every League member. So, we're asking you, Titans, to help us on this mission."

The Titans consisted of Nightwing, Starfire, Raven, Wonder Girl, Blue Beetle, and Changeling. Each member, minus the two elder titans, looked at one another in confusion. 'Why would the Justice League need the Titans' help?'

Starfire took a step forward and asked, "How can we be of assistance to the League?"

"We need one of you to go undercover and sent to Tibet to infiltrate and get information about his operation. The more information we get, the more evidence we have against him to turn him in with Interpol and for us to arrest him."

"How many of us do you need?"

"Only one." Answered the Dark Knight, who was standing next to Superman.

Raven stepped forward, holding her head high with no hesitation. "I'll do it."


6 years ago: Tibet

Grumbling to herself about the lack of sleeves that her black Chupa Phume (*) had, she entered the bar, taking interest in the colorful walls and the music. She looked around the bar, while avoiding the crowd and found her target, who was sitting casually and talking to the bartender. She approached them both and in a friendly voice, she asked the bartender for a club soda. As the bartender leaves, she turns to Damian, who had no shame in looking at her with curiosity in his eyes and she gives him a small friendly smile. She held her hand out for him to shake it. He just stared at it.

Sighing internally, she put her hand down and introduced herself. "My name is Leila Shul." (**)

Damian raises a dark eyebrow. "Arabic. Dark Beauty…"

Raven nods her head, "Yes, that is the meaning of my name."

He stared at her with the same curious eyes, but his facial expressions didn't change. It made her feel uncomfortable, she never had to deal with this kind of mission before. So, she just stared back at him with a similar expression.

After a few moments of silence between them. He clicked his tongue and finally replied back with a smirk, "That's good. It suits you."

Raven, who wasn't expecting the compliment, blinked her eyes. She quietly thanked him, and at that time, the bartender finally brought her drink. She took a sip of it and looked around the club for a few minutes. She turned back to look at her companion, and asked what his name is.

"Damian."

Her eyebrow rose, "Don't I get a last name?"

Damian chuckled, shaking his head. "Sorry Shul, but you don't get that from me."

Opening her mouth to retort back, the shattering of glasses and screams of people brought her attention back to the club. A group of men were standing near the entrance with guns, pointing at the counter. Realizing that they were pointing their guns at her direction, Raven was about to use her powers, but was pushed down by Damian, who started yelling in Arabic. A group of men, who weren't down, got their weapons ready and started shooting and those who are in the entrance.

Bullet shells and bodies were dropping to the floor, there was screaming and crying. This had to end now. Seeing a hand gun near her, Raven grabbed it and started helping Damian and his men. A shot was needed to severely injure, not kill, the men.

After, what seemed forever, the gun shots ended, and it went silent. Raven was breathing hard with the hand gun still in her hands.

Damian looked at her with a surprised look. She dropped the gun down, and turned to look at him. And this was something that she wasn't going to forget. He had a big smirk on his handsome face and his eyebrows were raised.

"Al Ghul."

Distracted for a second, Raven asked, "What?"

His smirk never left his face, "Name's Damian Al Ghul."

She returned the smirk back.


Present Time: Jump City

She turned around to face him in complete shock.

Damian was leaning on a wall, his arms crossed, his signature katana hanging on his back, and the same blank facial expression.

Regaining her composure, she got in her fighting stance with her powers flowing out of her hands.

"Nice to see you again, Damian."

Damian got off the wall and started walking towards her, circling her like a predator does to its prey.

Raven prepared her mantra, some boxes being covered by her powers. But before she could do anything, he spoke.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you, dearest. You failed to detect me and my men, and they will not hesitate to kill you all."

And with that warning, he lunged at her with his katana ready to kill.


A/N: So this is part one of two. Hopefully this one is better than the original 3rd chapter I posted. I need to fix that the Promposal Part 2, I didn't really like. After this chapter, the second part of this will hopefully be up by the end of the week.

Notes:

(*) A chupa phume is a Tibetan dress for women.

(**) The name Leila in Arabic means Dark Beauty.
