A/N: And back with Chapter 6. I just realised that I messed up in Chapter 4. I said that Raven's adoptive parents had called her Raven, it should've said Rachel. Sorry for any confusion. And also, in the last chapter's A/N the thing that you can't see says Novel Joy /dot/ com.


Chapter 6

The Pack's Influence

Peter woke with a start. He'd expected to be at home, in bed with his wife after being woken by a crying baby girl and 13-year-old Oscar would be in his room playing video games. But when he woke up he was in an unfamiliar bed, in an unfamiliar room. It was so dull and plain! The walls were grey, the carpet was grey, the entire bed was grey and there was a grey wardrobe opposite the bed. It looked like a room Egon would sleep in. Then Peter remembered that the team were in Jump City investigating the recent rise spiritual activity. He sighed and scratched a very itchy body part.

"Morning, Egon." No reply, "Egon?" Peter looked around the room. No emotionless scientist. He grunted and got up, got changed and walked back to the Common Room. When he got there he realised he had no idea how to open the door. Then it just opened on its own. He shrugged and walked in.

"Gooood Morning!" Peter yelled out. Robin was getting himself breakfast and Egon was on the computer.

"Good morning, Doctor Venkman." Robin smiled. Peter turned to him.

"You kids can call us by our first names, none of this 'Doctor' crap, okay?" He said jokingly. Robin chuckled slightly.

"I'll tell the others." Robin said and got back to his nearly ready breakfast.

"Good morning, Peter." Came the emotionless greeting of Doctor Spengler. Peter smirked and walked over to his best friend.

"And a spectacular morning to you Ego- . . . could that be lip-gloss on your lower lip?" Peter said. Egon, who hadn't realised that his friend was joking, started trying to rub off the non-existent lip-gloss off his lip.

"NO WAY! What's her name? Do I know her? How long were you two together last night? Did you go all the way with her?" Peter started talking rapidly. Egon then realised he'd made the same mistake twice.

Shit. He thought and glanced up at his friend who was still awaiting answers.

"I'm not telling you, you've met, we met up around midnight and no, I didn't 'go all the way with her'." Egon started blushing slightly. Peter shook his head with a smile.

"I bet she was upset." He said. Just as Egon was about to retaliate the doors opened and the rest of the Ghostbusters came in. They exchanged greetings as Ray and Winston came over to the computer, Egon still blushing.

"What's up with Egon?" Ray asked. Peter smirked at his friend.

"Egon here was up all night last night . . . with someone of the opposite sex. And apparently I know her." Egon stopped typing.

"NO WAY! Was it that Lisa chick down at Town Hall?" Winston asked. As you may've noticed, three of these grown men weren't over they're teenage gossiping faze yet. Just then the double doors opened and guess who just happened to walk in.

"Morning, Raven!" Robin said. He had just finished his breakfast and was about to go and train.

"Morning, Robin." Raven replied in her usual monotone. She then looked over at the four adults.

"Good morning." She said then went to get herself something to snack on.

"Morning, Raven!" Three of the four men said back to her. The fourth was blushing wildly and breathing heavily. When Winston, Ray and Peter noticed their friends current state they were surprised and excited . . . but waited until Raven had left the Common Room to start gossiping again.

"NO FUCKING WAY! You were with Raven last night!? How did it go? Do you kiss? How intimate were you two?" Ray started squealing. Egon's breathing became heavier and his . . . physical-state didn't calm down either.

"Yes, I was with Raven last night. It went pleasingly. Yes we kissed and I'm not sure how to explain the intimacy." Spengler mumbled. The three immature men in the room started gossiping among themselves as Egon began to reminisce her touch. Soft, careful, innocent, inexperienced. The very thought sent shivers up and down his spine. He wanted to hold her close to his chest and taste her lips again . . . but couldn't at that exact moment. Egon stood suddenly.

"I need to go take care of something." He said before running back to the grey room to . . . 'calm down'.


Confidential Location

"How much longer!?" A blue haired, 17-year-old boy with curled horns on either side of his head yelled at the top of his lungs.

"Calm yourself, Kaname. Stuff like this doesn't just happen overnight. We have to wait for our dear, sweet Hinata's Demonic pheromones to lure in her mate completely." A 25-year-old dirty blonde with curled horns similar to the boy now recognised as Kaname said. Kaname growled.

"I should be her mate." He snarled at the thought of a mere human being the purple haired girl's mate, "IT'S JUST NOT FAIR! She and I have known each other our whole lives and then suddenly a human shows up at her abode and she head over heels!" He roared.

"Kaname, dude! Take a chill-pill." A 22-year-old with amber hair and the same horns as the others said in a rather cool tone, "I teleported here without managing to get caught so I don't wanna hear your useless rant about how you should be Hinata's mate when I'm more suited for her." Kaname's fangs protruded from his gums.

"SHOUT YOUR GODDAMN MOUTH TAKUMI!" The teen thundered. Takumi simply smirked.

"Shhhh." Everyone went quiet as the soft voice hushed them. The three turned to the man standing at the top of the stares in the underground cave. The 35-year-old had tawny-brunette hair, shiny emerald eyes, and glasses. The most curled and sharpest horns of the group were connected to his head and he wore a striped suit and a dark tie. He was 181cm tall and weighed 70kg. They all knew that he was a very serious person and very stubborn. His name was Yasuomi Okiayu and he was the Pack Leader.

"Now just why was I awoken?" he said softly, barley hinted at the rage within him; but they all knew that it was there.

"Hina-Chan's f-found h-her m-mate." Yuuichi Fujiwara, the dirty blonde, stuttered. Yasuomi glared slightly at him.

"And just who has stolen my sweet, innocent Hinata's heart?" He said in the same soft tone, his rage creating hellfire in his eyes.

"H-he goes by t-the n-name Egon Spengler. H-he's a scientist a-and a G-Ghostbuster." Yuuichi made sure not to stutter the name to the pack leader, albeit the leader of a small pack but still a pack leader.

"Hmm. I wonder how he'll react . . . when she tells him that she is already married. And, as a bonus, I am her husband." That soft tone had allowed a hint of amusement to show as he looked at the ring on his finger, "Try not to awaken me again." He said as he went back up the stairs and entered the house above. The remaining three sweat-dropped.

"He's been really terrifying since she left for Jump, hasn't he? I mean, I know that they weren't on good terms when she left, but still." Kaname Shimono said after a minute of silence, his violet eyes showing slight fear.

"Yes, yes he has. But you have to keep in mind that if it wasn't for one of the rules of Packs, the one stating that the Pack Leader had to marry one of the, but in this case only, female in the Pack than he wouldn't of had the guts to propose and we'd never be in this mess." Takumi Kishio said before stretching, "I better get back to the University before my roommate notices that I'm gone." Then he was gone.

"Let's get back home, Kiddo. You have school." Yuuichi said as he laid a hand on the teenager's shoulder, "And you can't be her mate because you too are cousins and that's just wrong." He said before he teleported Kaname to Tokyo and himself to Okinawa.


In the Pack's above-ground dwelling . . .

Yasuomi's POV.

I knew this day would come. I knew that I wasn't her mate. But Spengler's a human and what's worse is that he murdered one of the greatest Half-Demons of all time. What to do, what to do. I can't just let Hinata fall into the arms of another, and marriage doesn't stop humans anymore. Perhaps I should pay her a visit and apologise for our past argument. Yes, that may work. I must bear a gift for her . . . but Hinata isn't one to be swept off her feet by mere roses. Maybe one of the family heirlooms she left behind. Yes, that will suffice well indeed. Hmm. I will need to quench the rage I felt the night she left me. Left us. She could never fully leave the Pack. She'd feel too alone to cope. Hmm, she still likes the dark, does she not? Of course she does. I wonder why, of all living beings, her mate is Egon Spengler. I shall have to look into his past and ancestry. Oh, my beloved Hinata. Why did you have to leave me after our first night as a proper married couple? I had to tell the Pack that we'd argued and you'd simply left without a goodbye, I know you hate that word. Hinata became a Teen Titan, did she not? Yes, she did. Under her chosen name, Raven. So pretty. She can't show her emotions at all, can she? No . . . could it be? I dearly hope not . . . I must find out the moment I see her next.


Dun, Dun, Dahhhhh!
