Author's note: Sorry i haven't been updating this story. I have been super busy with school and I finally got a break. Well here is the next chapter hope you like it.

PLEASE REVIEW!!!

My idea for this story came from The Lord of the Rings trilogy. I made some of the characters a little occ but they still have their powers like in the TEEN TITANS show.

Summary: A dark power is trying to rise and take control of the universe. The only way it will succeed is to have the ring of power and Raven as it's portal into the world. Can Raven stop these events from happening? With a little help from her friends she might.

After saying good bye to Kane and Arella, Beastboy, known also as Garfield, and Raven headed downtown to meet the gang.

Beastboy: So who was the tall guy, your uncle or something?

Raven: He's not my uncle, but he is the closes thing I've ever had as a dad.

Beastboy: So how come I've never met him?

Raven: He travels a lot. He is a detective. He's called all over the planet to do investigations so it's been awhile since he's been in this town.

Beastboy: Is your mom dating him?

Raven: I don't know the detail status of their relationship. They would make the coolest couple.

Beastboy: Okay, let's not talk about that 'cause it's going to lead down to weddings and bridal showers and all that other lovy dovey stuff. You don't see me going like that over some gir--

But he stopped mid sentence when he saw a certain blonde girl coming toward them. She had on brown capris with a green t-shirt that said 'OUTDOOR GIRL' and a pair of gym shoes to match. Raven smirked at Beastboy and kept on walking.

Raven: Hey, Terra. What's up?

Terra: Nothing much. I was wondering what kept you so long. I was coming to get you.

Raven: well, we had company over today.

Terra: Oh you mean Kane. He's so handsome and charming. I wish I could have a guy like that.

At that comment Beastboy jumps up to her with a mischievous face of a detective, or so he thinks.

Beastboy: You know I'm trying to get into a school for young detectives.

Raven: Yeah, so solve this mystery. What's that on your shirt?

Beastboy looked down at his shirt and that he had been drooling when he saw Terra coming. Terra and Raven laughed until they couldn't breathe. After they stopped laughing they headed down the street to the mall.

Meanwhile…..

Back at the Roth's Residence

Arella and Kane were talking about old times.

Kane: Remember that time we went into old man Benny's basement and found the potion to turn people into toads.

Arella: I thought it was a fake till we tried on you. That was hilarious.

Kane: Yeah. Good times.

Arella: You know, Raven's birthday is coming up.

Kane: Yeah. She'll be sixteen won't she? Are you sure he's ready for it?

Arella: I can't keep hiding her from the truth. What if it's too late? She needs to know now. So when it's done you'll take care of her, won't you.

Kane stepped closer to Arella and held her hand in his. They started into each other's eyes with tenderness and worry.

Kane: Yes, I will. I'll take care of her as if she were my own. You know I love both of you. I don't know what I'd do if anything happen to either of you.

Arella gave him a hug and Kane stroked her hair to comfort her. Then Kane pulled Arella's Face towards his and gently kissed her lips. Soon that kiss turned into passion and all feelings were brought.
