Author's Note: Alright - This is a fem-slash story, don't like? then don't read. It's a Jinx/Raven pairing - I'm sorry to anyone who has read this already but I'm changing this chapter a little. My friend literally begged on her hands and knee's for me to make this a Jinx/Raven story lol. All your favourite Twilight characters will be here though and Edward and Bella do stay together.

Disclaimer: I don't own Teen Titans or Twilight.


It was a bright day in California, there was a sparse spattering of clouds and the sun was shining brilliantly down on a large 'T' shaped tower. The tower which homed five super-powered teenagers. The teenagers in question were all very different from each other but somehow managed to live in moderate harmony, only the occasional fight happening between the five friends. Usually it was over something trivial like Beast Boy and Cyborg fighting over what to cook for breakfast - the former being a die-hard vegan. Other times there was just to much teen angst and all around irrational moods in which kept the tower a lively place - also considering the five teens protected the city from various villains and thieves. Overall they worked like a well oiled machine. There was one that was an enigma though, all of her friends would give their lives for her in heartbeat - years of working and living along side the mysterious girl had bonded them all so tightly that they would do anything for her - yet in realty they knew very only bits and pieces about her. Of course they had found out a lot a while ago with her father coming to earth to destroy all mortals - but other then that they knew very little.

The 18 year old girl - Raven sat silently her room, she was reading the novel Dracula and was about to move on to the last chapter when her rarely used cell phone started beeping and vibrating madly within the draw in which it was kept. She frowned slightly and moved from her cross-legged position to her knees, reaching over to grab the slim device. She was mildly shocked to see who was calling her, an eyebrow involuntarily piqued and a small frown spread across her lips.

The screen read: MARCUS VOLTURI.

She instantly found herself tense, Marcus never contacted her, it was always Aro or sometimes their human receptionist whose name she could never remember. Raven didn't even remember putting Marcus in her contacts. She found herself immediately curious, why would he contact her and not Aro? She didn't find herself very surprised though, Aro hated how someone with a pulse had rank over him within the creatures of the night. He was most likely trying to go ahead with something without her knowing just to spite her. While she was only half-demon, she was the daughter of Trigon the Terrible. The incarnation of evil, it was he who had created vampires. With his fall from power, resulting in her rise, Raven now had to overlook all decisions made by the vampire community. Which led to her business like association with the Volturi. They were considered the closets thing to vampire royalty, and ultimately enforced and created the laws all vampires had to abide by.

Raven shrugged inwardly to herself and decided to answer the phone; maybe she would be able to satisfy her curiosity with some answers. She clicked the green button and held the cell to her ear, easing back into the plush pillows of her bed.

"Marcus? Talk."

She heard a dry chuckle and then a deep drawling voice, something only achieved by vampires.

"Ah, such bad manners for a lady. Hello to you too, dear Raven." she could imagine him lounging in his ostentatious throne, most likely hiding his emotions with a facade of boredom and indifference. Heck, she was positive he was probably inspecting his nails for non-existent imperfections.

"Hello," she droned her voice not changing in pitch. "What is it that you want?"

"There is a situation here that demands your attention. I feel Aro will let his personal paranoia and greed effect his decisions, and will put the Volturi in danger. Also, he is trying to overthrow your authority, hence why it is I who is calling and not him." his voice was all business and Raven allowed a slight sigh to escape her lips.

"Alright. I will be there soon; it's been a while since I have visited Volterra anyway. The vacation will be welcome. Goodbye." Raven ended the call without waiting for his reply. Standing and stretching she looked around for her hooded cloak, she spotted it hanging over her desk chair and snatched it up. Fastening it around her shoulders she put her phone back in its draw and went to leave her room. She cast a glance over at the book she had been enjoying and allowed herself a smirk of amusement.

Ironic.

She heaved herself another sigh and felt herself turn corporeal as she phased through her metal door, too lazy to type in the room code. She strolled leisurely towards Robin's room, to tell him she would be taking a vacation.

As she reached his room she heard Starfire's tell tale high pitched giggle and allowed a slight shiver of disgust to run down her spine. She was glad she had that forewarning before she walked in on something that she definitely didn't want to see.

She allowed another long-suffering sigh escape her lips and rapped her knuckles against the cold metal, rolling her eyes as she heard panicked rustling and 'Shhs' come from inside. She was about to knock again to hurry them up when Robin's slightly flushed face appeared, embarrassed look on his masked face.

Raven smirked at him as she noticed how he made sure to block any view into his room. She looked up and arched an eyebrow, causing the Boy-Wonder to flush profusely once again.

"I am just letting you know that I might be gone for a little while. Contact my communicator if there is urgent," she stressed to word, "Trouble. Are you going to ask what I'm doing?" she gave him a look suggesting that it would be a bad idea.

Robin shook his head, "No... It's your business."

Raven's smile was small. "Good, because I wasn't going to tell you," her smile turned into a smirk. "Bye Robin, Starfire." she raised her voice slightly on the Tamaranian's name and almost smiled as she heard the aliens enthusiastic response from the depths of Robins room. Raven then enveloped herself in her black energy and teleported herself into the Volturi's feeding chambers, it was around noon and she suspected she would be arriving just before lunch.

Once the shadows had disappeared she found herself standing in front of the three brothers thrones. Aro was sitting eagerly in his seat anticipation radiating off him, his emotions changed radically to slight fear and irritation when he saw Raven but he kept it well hidden. Marcus looked as uninterested as ever but gave her a faint nod as she looked at him, boredom and mild curiosity the only emotions she could pick up on. Caius had an aura of blood lust, but was greatly surprised to see Raven.

"Hello Aro, Caius, Marcus. Anything interesting happening around here as of late?" she purposefully directed the question towards Aro. The vampire under her gaze squirmed in slight discomfort but offered her a false, amused smile.

"Ah, princess... How lovely of you to... drop by." he chuckled to himself, "Actually quite impeccable timing, we have a guest arriving soon, you see. One of the Cullen clan had come here, looking to be put out of his misery, we decided not to as it would be such a waste." he was grinning with glee, his emotions making Raven feel slightly sick.

Raven kept her face completely devoid of expression as she gazed at him with intensity, suspicion heavy in her eyes, which where glowing violet from under her hood.

"Really?" she drawled, her eyes not leaving his, "Then why is it you did not contact me? Surely something of this caliber would mean I should be contacted immediately, correct?" her eyes went hard. "Or are starting to forget who is in charge here?"

His smile faltered slightly and she felt pure, undiluted hatred sear through him. She grinned inwardly to herself. She didn't want these manipulative monsters to like her. Especially one as manipulative and power hungry as Aro.

"No, no I have not forgotten. I just assumed that you would prefer to be left out of such insignificant matters." his smile was back and firmly in place again, but his emotions were still a different story.

"Good, make sure it doesn't happen again. You know what they say about assuming." she stated apathetically, eyes leaving his to trail around the room. She noticed that a few of his usual posse were missing, including Jane - who Raven herself had a slight kinship with. The girl was nasty and volatile, but Raven had enjoyed what time she had spent in her company. Maybe it was because Jane was almost as sarcastic as she was; she looked forward to seeing her. Raven paid no notice to the scattering of guards around the room. "Now, tell me more about what is going on."

"Well, Edward Cullen. You know of the vegetarians, don't you?" he chuckled and Raven nodded, having been told of this unusually large coven of vampires that fed from the blood of animals. "He wished to be executed, but I simply couldn't grant his wish voluntarily as his gift is quite extraordinary. A mind reader. But he was heartbroken, apparently his love had died recently," he frowned, "I offered him a place in the guard, but he was intent on being killed, right now I think he is exposing himself to the humans. I sent Felix and Demetri down a while ago and Jane had departed just before you arrived to see what was taking them so long."

Raven nodded contemplatively and walked over to one of the large intricate windows. She looked out into Volterra and saw a large crowd of people dressed in scarlet cloaks, obviously celebrating something.

"What's the occasion?" she queried, looking over to the elder Vampires who were studying her silently. Marcus chuckled sardonically at her question, for once answering instead of Aro.

"Saint Marcus day, they are celebrating how I exterminated all the vampires from the city.." he looked at his nails. "Ironic isn't it?

Raven smirked and clasped her hands together, relaxing against the wall - shrouded in shadows where she was naturally most comfortable.

"Aro," she called. "When they arrive, don't alert them to my presence. I want you to deal with this." it would give her to observe him. She looked indifferently around the room and soon found her eyes locked on a drain in the center of the room. She felt unreserved disgust roll through her. She looked back to Aro.

Aro gave her a small nod and another false smile. Suddenly his head snapped to the large doors and his smile became positively gleeful. His emotions were sky rocketing with excitement. Raven felt a barrage of emotions coming from outside the doors, and was surprised at how many people were there. She thought Aro had said it was only Jane, Felix, Demetri and the Cullen. There were two more people standing out there, two females. And shockingly, one was human.

Raven's first conclusion was that someone had seen the Cullen and was now going to become a meal. It was the most logical and she felt a pang of sympathy for the poor soul. How unlucky it would be to just happen to see something like that and instantly be either forced to become a vampire - if deemed worthy enough - or die.

Raven decided then to see what was the hold up and phased through the walls until she found herself standing in a corridor, still shrouded in shadows. She was shocked to see the Cullen vampire in question holding the girl to his side possessively, protectively. Raven almost chuckled, and the plot thickens, she thought wryly, her eyes glued to the scene. She was scentless to vampires and the mind reader wouldn't be able to pick up on her mind, with all her mental shields. Also, with the large crowds human's around and inside the building no one would be able to pick up on her heart beat. She would go completely undetected until she decided not to.

"Jane," Alec walked forward to his twin sister who was leading the group.

"Alec." she responded, embracing him and they kissed each other on both cheeks. Then the young boy looked past her to look at the foreign guests. "I send you out looking for one and you come back with two," he looked at the human girl, "And a half."

Jane laughed - it sounded like tinkling bells - sweet and innocent, completely contradicting of her personality. It almost made Raven want to laugh at her thoughts, as Jane was anything but sweet.

"Welcome back, Edward." Alec greeted the bronze-haired vampire holding the girl, "You seem in a better mood."

The vampire nodded darkly, "Marginally." his voice was flat, but Raven could feel the anxiety and fear he felt and an intense love aimed at the human girl. His mate, obviously - Aro had left that little detail out of his explanation. She also observed that both he, and the female vampire had golden eyes, a brilliant topaz. She wondered if it was a result of their diet.

Alec chuckled as he examined the girl clinging to the Cullen with interest, a feeling of blood lust radiating off him. "And this is the cause of all the trouble?"

Cullen only gave him a contemptuous look.

"Dibs," Felix called casually from where he was standing behind the couple, eying the brunette human hungrily. The Cullen froze and then whirled around and snarled threateningly at the other vampire, crushing the girl against his side protectively, but still managing not to hurt her with his superior strength. Raven couldn't help but be impressed at his self control.

Raven tested the other emotions around her and noticed every vampire in the room was drawn to this girl's blood, her lover especially. Irony seemed to be everywhere today.

The other vampire female which had been silent for the most part touched Cullen's arm consolingly, eyes knowing. "Patience."

Raven was surprised to see the girl was slightly shorter then herself, had jet black hair. She wasn't surprised with her looks but was curious to why she seemed to be so sure of what was going to happen. Her emotions were confident and she remained calm.

The two coven members exchanged a long glance and Raven guessed that he was probably reading her mind. The male Cullen then took a deep breath and turned his attention back to Alec.

"Aro will be so pleased to see you again," Alec said, as if nothing had passed.

Jane nodded, "Let's not keep him waiting," she suggested.

The Cullen - Edward nodded once. Alec and Jane holding hands then started to lead the group down the hallway, Raven following unnoticed.

The group was soon ushered through to the antechamber where the three brothers were sitting silently. Raven once again phased through the wall instead of following the small party and kept herself hidden in the shadows.

Aro had stood up instantly as everyone arrived, "Jane, dear one, you've returned!" he cried in evident delight, his voice soft. Giving them a sense of safety; a facade.

He glided to Jane, took her face in his papery hands, kissed her lightly on her full lips, and then floated back a step, reading her thoughts with his gift.

"Yes, Master." Jane smiled; the expression made her look like an angelic child - something she was not. "I brought him back alive, just as you wished."

"Ah, Jane." He smiled, too. "You are such a comfort to me."

Aro's eyes turned to the guests, his smile turning ecstatic, "And Alice and Bella too!" his informality obviously shocked the human girl - Bella who stared at him with something akin to awe and fear, cringing into Edward's side.

"You see, Edward?" the manipulative Vampire turned to Edward with a smile, like a grandfather scolding a child. "What did I tell you? Aren't you glad that I didn't give you what you wanted yesterday?"

"Yes, Aro, I am," he agreed, tightening his arm around Bella's waist.

"I love a happy ending." Aro sighed. "They are so rare. But I want the whole story. How did this happen? Alice?" He turned to gaze at Alice with curious crimson eyes. "Your brother seemed to think you infallible, but apparently there was some mistake."

"Oh, I'm far from infallible." She flashed a dazzling smile. She looked perfectly at ease, except that her hands were balled into tight little fists and her emotions were churning - finally some uncertainty. "As you can see today, I cause problems as often as I cure them."

"You're too modest," Aro chided. "I've seen some of your more amazing exploits, and I must admit I've never observed anything like your talent. Wonderful!"

Alice flickered a glance at Edward. Aro did not miss it. Raven felt her interest piqued, talent?

"I'm sorry, we haven't been introduced properly at all, have we? It's just that I feel like I know you already, and I tend get ahead of myself. Your brother introduced us yesterday, in a peculiar way. You see, I share some of your brother's talent, only I am limited in a way that he is not." Aro shook his head; his tone was envious as was his emotions.

"And also exponentially more powerful," Edward added dryly. He looked at Alice as he swiftly explained. "Aro needs physical contact to hear your thoughts, but he hears much more than I do. You know I can only hear what's passing through your head in the moment. Aro hears every thought your mind has ever had."

Alice raised her delicate eyebrows, and Edward inclined his head.

Aro didn't miss that either.

"But to be able to hear from a distance…" Aro sighed, gesturing toward the two of them, and the exchange that had just taken place. "That would be so convenient."

Raven could practically smell his jealousy now.

Turning around he then looked back to Bella. Gesturing to Marcus and Cauis who were sitting silently on their thrones.

"These are my brothers, Marcus and Cauis."

A jolt of recognition ran through the petite girl and she nodded to Aro meekly, causing the vampire to grin.

"Good, good! Now we are all introduced, let's have the full story!" he sang, his voice was feathery light and eager. He danced over to Marcus and touched his brother's hand briefly, only to turn around and stare at Bella and Edward in shock.

"Amazing," he exclaimed, "Absolutely amazing." he glided back to stand in front of the couple.

Bella looked confused and the petite vampire - Alice looked frustrated. Edward looked down at them briefly and spoke, to quiet for Raven to hear, but it seemed to explain something to both of the girls.

Aro smiled. "So convenient," he repeated to himself. Then he spoke to us. "It takes quite a bit to surprise Marcus, I can assure you."

Comprehension dawned on Raven.

"It's just so difficult to understand, even now," Aro mused, staring at Edward's arm wrapped around Bella.

"How can you stand so close to her like that?"

"It's not without effort," Edward answered calmly.

"But still - la tua cantante! What a waste!"

Raven felt once again felt surprise.

Edward chuckled once without humor. "I look at it more as a price."

Aro was skeptical. "A very high price."

"Opportunity cost."

Aro laughed. "If I hadn't smelled her through your memories, I wouldn't have believed the call of anyone's blood could be so strong. I've never felt anything like it myself. Most of us would trade much for such a gift, and yet you…"

"Waste it," Edward finished his voice sarcastic now.

Aro laughed again. "Ah, how I miss my friend Carlisle! You remind me of him - only he was not so angry."

"Carlisle outshines me in many other ways as well."

"I certainly never thought to see Carlisle bested for self-control of all things, but you put him to shame."

"Hardly." Edward sounded impatient. As if he was tired of the preliminaries. Raven was almost relieved that he wasn't fooled by Aro's friendly act.

"I am gratified by his success," Aro mused. "Your memories of him are quite a gift for me, though they astonish me exceedingly. I am surprised by how it… pleases me, his success in this unorthodox path he's chosen. I expected that he would waste, weaken with time. I'd scoffed at his plan to find others who would share his peculiar vision. Yet, somehow, I'm happy to be wrong."

Edward didn't reply.

"But your restraint!" Aro sighed. "I did not know such strength was possible. To inure yourself against

such a siren call, not just once but again and again—if I had not felt it myself, I would not have believed." Edward gazed back at Aro's admiration with no expression. Raven could feel an intense fury seething under his mask.

"Just remembering how she appeals to you…" Aro chuckled. "It makes me thirsty."

Edward tensed just slightly and the girls eyes flashed with fright.

"Don't be disturbed," Aro reassured him. "I mean her no harm. But I am so curious, about one thing in particular." He eyed the girl with bright interest. "May I?" he asked eagerly, lifting one hand.

"Ask her," Edward suggested in a flat voice.

"Of course, how rude of me!" Aro exclaimed. "Bella," he addressed her directly now. "I'm fascinated that you are the one exception to Edward's impressive talent - so very interesting that such a thing should occur! And I was wondering, since our talents are similar in many ways, if you would be so kind as to allow me to try - to see if you are an exception for me, as well?"

Her eyes flashed up to Edward's face in terror. Despite Aro's overt politeness, the girl was obviously not caught in his net of false security, but she seemed resigned - knowing she really had no choice in the matter.

Edward nodded in encouragement at his mate and she then touched her trembling palm to Aro's.

Aro's face altered as Raven watched. The confidence wavered and became first doubt, then incredulity before he calmed it into a friendly mask.

"So very interesting," he said as he released her hand and drifted back.

Raven's eyes flashed to Edward, and, though his face was composed, she could feel smugness coming from him.

Aro continued to drift with a thoughtful expression. He was quiet for a moment, his eyes flickering between the three of them. Then, abruptly, he shook his head.

"A first," he said to himself. "I wonder if she is immune to our other talents… Jane, dear?"

"No!" Edward snarled the word. Alice grabbed his arm with a restraining hand. He shook her off.

Little Jane smiled up happily at Aro. "Yes, Master?"

Edward was truly snarling now, the sound ripping and tearing from him, glaring at Aro with baleful eyes.

The room had gone still, everyone watching him with amazed disbelief, as if he were committing some embarrassing social faux pas. Raven saw Felix grin hopefully and move a step forward. Aro glanced at him once, and he froze in place, his grin turning to a sullen expression.

Then he spoke to Jane. "I was wondering, my dear one, if Bella is immune to you."

Raven could barely hear Aro over Edward's furious growls. He let go of the girl, moving to hide her Jane's view. Caius ghosted in their direction, with his entourage, to watch - he looked positively exited.

Jane turned toward the girl with a beatific smile.

"Don't!" Alice cried as Edward launched himself at Jane - a grave mistake on his part.

Before anyone could jump between them, before Aro's bodyguards could tense, Edward was on the ground. Jane was smiling only at him now, her gift causing him obvious agony.

"Stop!" the girl - Bella - Raven reminded herself, shrieked, her voice echoing in the silence, jumping forward to put herself between Edward and Jane. But Alice threw her arms around her in an unbreakable grasp and ignored her struggles. No sound escaped Edward's lips as he cringed against the stones. Raven was quite impressed by the way he refused to let out a sound and satisfy Jane's sadist nature.

Aro spoke, "Stop." he turned to indicate at Bella, "Go ahead dear,"

Jane turned towards Bella and gave her a child-like smile, her bright scarlet eyes boring intensely into the brunettes. Everyone in the room felt a jolt of surprise when the girl didn't start writhing and screaming in pain.

"Ah, fascinating!" Aro grinned, "So very fascinating..."

Raven cleared her throat, trying to get the elder vampire back to business. The girl wasn't some collector's item he could just add to his guard on a whim. She was a person; she had ideals, her own will. She was not a toy to control. Raven turned her eyes to the human and studied her.

She was attractive and slender with long and thick chocolate brown hair that matched her eyes. Her skin was a pale white, though not translucent like a vampires. She was a very classic beauty, something that would have been highly coveted in the Victorian era. Her beauty would be everlasting.

Raven then studied the two vampires she was with. Edward, she was sure would make many women swoon with one look. Sharp features, intense smoldering golden eyes and dark lips. He pulled off the dark brooding look. Raven wouldn't be surprised if she got along with him.

The female vampire was unsurprisingly attractive, but more pixie like - it was a more daring look than Bella's suggesting she had more confidence then the human girl. Alice is petite in stature but obviously had a loud personality. She screamed bright colors and a very happy deposition. Not something Raven could relate with.

"It is just too bad you have no intention of turning her..." Aro sighed in a defeated fashion. Looking at Bella he spoke, "So what is it we do with you now..?"

Edward, Alice and Bella all stiffened where they were standing, regarding the three brothers cautiously. This is what everyone had been waiting for.

"I don't suppose there's any chance that you've changed your mind?" Aro asked Edward hopefully. "Your talent would be an excellent addition to our little company."

Edward hesitated. From the corner of her eye, Raven saw both Felix and Jane grimace.

Edward seemed to weigh each word before he spoke it. "I'd… rather… not."

"Alice?" Aro asked, still hopeful. "Would you perhaps be interested in joining with us?"

"No, thank you," Alice said quickly.

"And you, Bella?" Aro raised his eyebrows. He earned very surprised looks from everyone in the room.

Edward hissed, low and dangerous. The girl just stared at the vampire blankly; Raven could feel the confusion and incredulity wafting off of her. It was Caius who broke the silence.

"What?" he demanded of Aro, his voice no more than a whisper, was flat.

"Caius, surely you see the potential," Aro chided him affectionately. "I haven't seen a prospective talent so promising since we found Jane and Alec. Can you imagine the possibilities when she is one of us?"

Raven looked down to where Jane was standing stonily next to her and had to fight back a laugh at the indignant look she had on her child-like face, obviously displeased with being compared to the human.

Edward was still growling from where he was standing with Bella, but the girl finally answered, her voice breaking at the end of her sentence, "No, thank you."

Aro sighed. "That's unfortunate. Such a waste…"

Edward hissed angrily. "Join or die, is that it? I suspected as much when we were brought to this room. So much for your laws." he had chosen his words deliberately with great care, Raven noted. Maybe he was smarter then she first thought.

"Of course not." Aro blinked, astonished. "We were already convened here, Edward, awaiting Heidi's return. Not for you."

"Aro," Caius hissed. "The law claims them."

Edward glared at Caius. "How so?" he demanded.

Caius pointed a skeletal finger at Bella. "She knows too much. You have exposed our secrets." His voice was papery thin, just like his skin.

"There are a few humans in on your charade here, as well," Edward reminded him, and Raven thought of the receptionist, annoyed at the fact she still couldn't remember the woman's name.

Caius's face twisted into a new expression. Raven could tell he was attempting to smile.

"Yes," he agreed. "But when they are no longer useful to us, they will serve to sustain us. That is not you plan for this one. If she betrays our secrets, are you prepared to destroy her? I think not," he scoffed.

"I wouldn't—," Bella began, whispering. Caius silenced her with an icy look.

"Nor do you intend to make her one of us," Caius continued. "Therefore, she is a liability. Though it

is true, for this, only her life is forfeit. You may leave if you wish."

Edward bared his teeth and growled.

"That's what I thought," Caius said, with something akin to pleasure. Felix leaned forward, eagerly - eying Bella once again.

"Unless…" Aro interrupted, looking unhappy with the way the conversation had gone. "Unless you do intend to give her immortality?"

Edward pursed his lips, hesitating for a moment before he answered. "And if I do?"

Aro smiled, happy again. "Why, then you would be free to go home and give my regards to my friend

Carlisle." his expression turned more hesitant. "But I'm afraid you would have to mean it."

Aro raised his hand in front of him.

Caius, who had begun to scowl furiously, relaxed.

Edward's lips tightened into a fierce line. He stared into the girls eyes intensely and surprisingly she stared back. She whispered something imploringly to him and he seemed to deflate with resignation, which almost made him look tortured.

And then Alice stepped away from them, forward toward Aro. Everyone turned to watch her. Her hand was raised like his.

She didn't say anything, and Aro waved off his anxious guard as they moved to block her approach. Aro met her halfway, and took her hand with an eager glint in his eyes.

He bent his head over their touching hands, his eyes closing as he concentrated. Alice was motionless, her face blank.

No one moved. Aro seemed frozen over Alice's hand. The seconds passed, and then Aro's voice broke the silence.

"Ha, ha, ha," he laughed, his head still bent forward. He looked up slowly, his eyes bright with excitement. "That was fascinating!"

That must be his favorite word, Raven thought snidely, rolling her eyes.

Alice smiled dryly; almost annoyed. "I'm glad you enjoyed it."

"To see the things you've seen - especially the ones that haven't happened yet!" He shook his head in wonder seeming to find it hard to comprehend.

"But that will," she reminded him, voice calm; certain - as were her emotions. Raven didn't doubt that Bella would be changed.

"Yes, yes, it's quite determined. Certainly there's no problem."

Caius looked bitterly disappointed—a feeling he seemed to share with Felix and Jane. Raven gave the small girl a look, which Jane retorted with a roll of her eyes and a bitter scoff.

"Aro," Caius complained.

"Dear Caius," Aro smiled. "Do not fret. Think of the possibilities! They do not join us today, but we can always hope for the future. Imagine the joy young Alice alone would bring to our little household... Besides, I'm so terribly curious to see how Bella turns out!"

Raven nearly felt the bile rise in her stomach. In that moment she absolutely loathed the greedy, power obsessed vampire. He reminded her too much of her father and that wasn't a compliment.

"Are we free to go now?" Edward said curtly, once again pulling Bella to his side. Aro nodded and gave them a beaming smile "Yes of course, give my regards to Carlisle and the others! And we will be seeing you soon. Remember, we do not offer second chances."

Raven could tell that they understood what Aro meant. Without replying, the trio left the room, none of them looked back. She watched as they left and then turned back to the three brothers. She knew exactly what they were thinking, even without having to read their minds.

"I think It would be best If I was the one to keep tabs on them. Is the girl still in high school?"

Aro looked over to her and nodded, "Yes, senior year I believe. Forks, Washington but won't you be too busy, considering your occupation?"

Raven shook her head, her eyes hidden in the shadows of her hood. "No. I took some time off. If there is anything dire enough for me to have to go back I can just teleport. You handled that quite well, you almost had me convinced that you were actually considering having her killed," she chuckled dryly, "But of course, you are not one to waste."

"No, never." Aro's smile was more comfortable now that she had announced she would not be sticking around.

"Well, I will be leaving. I have to get things arranged. Forks, here I come." Raven almost groaned. High school was not something she was looking forward too.

Abruptly Jane spoke up, "Do you have to leave? Can't you stay just a little longer?" her eyes were almost pleading, Raven merely shook her head.

"No, I shouldn't. A lot of things need to be taken care of, and the sooner they are the better." she gave Jane a reassuring look, not quite a smile, "I will visit soon though, do not worry."

And then without warning she felt her black energy surround her and she was back in her room in Titan's Tower. She set of the Cyborg's computer room; he would be able to get all the appropriate false documents made.

Raven briefly wondered whether she should have one of the team come with her, but then dismissed it. If she did she would have to tell them of the existence of vampires, and she knew it would cause unnecessary stress. Plus, with her taking time off it would weaken the team if someone else did as well.


End Note: Here is the first chapter of my Teen Titans/Twilight crossover! Wow, it's long I know - but I just had to integrate Raven, the next chapter's will most likely be significantly shorter. Jinx is up next!

Anyway review and give me your opinion! I'd like to apologize one more time to anyone who wanted a different pairing, but my friend is really, really annoying XD.
