Hey guys! I had this crazy idea for a story, it probably been done before but I hope mine can still be a little original! P. S this is a prologue! Oh and the man isn't important. I just borrowed him for this chapter! So no need to know the guy's name.

PROLOGUE

~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~

Raven was out at night walking around the downtown part of jump city where not many people went to unless they had a gun. Of course, Raven didn't need a gun. She had her magic. Raven depended on her magic for everything. Levitating, meditating, fighting, and even healing. Raven felt she had nothing to worry about by walking here. So she felt safe. Until she sensed a person near by. She came to a stop in front of an alley way. She had felt this presence before. Many times before, in fact, she could picture the exact face of the person hiding down that alley way. It was a him. She knew from the first time she sensed him.

For the last couple months, during a battle, she would feel a certain kind of presence, one that was specifically watching her. She blew it off as just one of her followers, until she realized that every battle, no matter where, they would be watching her. She had ignored it for two months, but she couldn't any longer when she woke up one night to only have her sense the man right outside her window. The next morning she had confronted Robin about it alone. He told her that he would check the surveillance camera's after lunch. When lunch time came around, she followed Robin to the security room and they watched the camera that was placed inside Raven's room that had a view of the window. After a few minutes of watching Raven squirm a little in her bed, a shadowy figure appeared at her window. The both freezed the screen and looked at each other. Robin had told Raven that it was probably just a crazed fan of hers wanting to get a good look at her. Raven just decided to let it go.

As Raven stared down the alley way she decided to confront this man to see what he wanted from her. Raven felt her heart beat louder and faster as she walked deeper into the alley.

I'm okay. She thought to herself. I have my magic and this is just some ordinary guy. He couldn't possibly hurt me.

She finally came to the end of the alley only to find it was a dead end and there wasn't anyone there.

"I know you're here." She could still sense him.

"Oh do you now?" A deep and musky voice replied.

"Well, if I didn't before I do now." She said with her monotone voice. She didn't want to let the man now she was a little panicky. She heard a soft chuckle.

"Yes. I do suppose that gives me away. But maybe I don't want to hide from you anymore." The last part he almost whispered.

"Why do you want to hide from me?" Raven felt a bit better after finding out he was afraid of her.

"All that power you have. You could destroy me in a minute, but you can't anymore." He finally stepped out of the shadows behind her. Raven turned to face him. It was dark; she couldn't see much except his outline. She could tell he had shaggy hair and he was in pretty good shape. She took a few steps back and her back became pressed against the wall.

"What do you mean I can't anymore?" She felt her hands become sweaty.

"I have found something that used to belong to the guardians of the temple of Azarath. I found a necklace you might say, one that holds special properties." He was smiling now. Raven suddenly felt her breath stop short.

"H-ho-how did you get that?" She knew what he was talking about. The guardians had made trinkets to stop or protect them from the power of Trigon. She had remembered that Slade had gotten hold of the ring of Azar, but now this man who had been stalking Raven for over two months now has the very necklace of Azar. This was used to stop any magic that came from Trigon or one who had Trigon's blood.

"Let's just say I have a few connections that most people don't." He started to come towards her. Raven raised her hands to produce her magic but nothing happened.

"What the..?" She looked down at her hands then back at the man who was only a few feet away now.

"Did I mention that it draws away magic within 20 yards?" No he was only an inch away.

"Get away from me." She turned her face away from his.

"Now why would I want to do that? After all, you're so beautiful." He put his finger under her chin and forced her to face him. Then with his free arm he moved his hand up and down her waist. Raven shuddered and tried to wriggle out of his grasp. He just took hold of her thigh and forced her still.

"We can make this easy or you can make this difficult. Personally I don't mind either way." He winked then pressed his lips to hers. Raven muttered and pushed her hands to his chest to try to push him away. He just grabbed her wrists with one hand and placed his other hand on the zipper of her leotard. He began to move the zipper downward and her shoulders became bare and her cleavage began to show. When he took his face away from hers he looked up and down her body. She took this chance to try to scream for help.

"Help!" She yelled. The man took his eyes off her body and raised his fist and brought it down upon her cheek. Raven gasped out of shock and pain. Her vision became blurred with black spots.

"Don't you ever do that again! Ya hear!" He slapped her once more, but not as hard. Her vision became blacker. When she felt his hand on her zipper once more she felt the tears come to her eyes. She felt her chest become cold with the cool night air and knew he had gotten half the leotard off.

"Beautiful…" He whispered. Raven couldn't hold the tears back any longer. They flooded down her cheeks and she began to sob.

"Oh sweetie, don't cry. I'll make it better. I promise." He whispered into her ear.

"That's a promise you won't be able to keep." Another voice rang from behind him. The man turned to see who was there but instead came face-to-face with a fist instead. The man backed into Raven, who still couldn't quite see what was happening before herm, but she fell to the ground and covered her head with her arms as the man tumbled on to her grasping his nose in pain. Raven took the time to think about where she had heard the other voice before. The man stood up and looked around for the guy who punched him. When he couldn't find him he turned back to Raven who was now lying on the ground.

"Get up you little who-"he was cut off when a hand was placed of his shoulder and he was tossed back at the wall where he let out a sharp cry. He fell to the ground and grabbed his shoulder. When he looked up he saw the attacker. He froze in fear.

"Please…I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt her." He pleaded.

"Sorry, I don't do mercy or forgiveness. That's God's job." With that he raised his foot and kicked it straight at the guy's face where he became unconscious at the impact. He turned to see Raven still covering her chest and tears still streaming out.

Raven had finally recognized the voice and blood ran cold and she tried to back farther against the wall.

"It's okay. I'm not going to hurt you. Here take this and cover yourself." He handed her a blanket.

"Why are you helping me Slade?" He voice shaky and scared.

"I may be bad, but I would never do the thing that man tried to do to you. You might not believe it but if I come across a scene like tonights, I end it. Rape is just a sick torture that men do when they have nothing better to do with their lives." Thunder rang across the sky and small droplets of rain began to fall. Raven pulled the blanket closed to her. Slade bent down and picked up Raven bridal style. Raven began to fight back but began to settle in his arms when she knew he wasn't going to hurt her. As he walked away leaving the man lying on the ground, he felt Raven cuddle into his chest and fall asleep with tears still running down.
