Chapter 2

Raven sat at the small wooden table as a cup of hot steaming tea sat atop it, it had been four years since Raven left the teen titans and the only one she had seen was Robin when he came and visited her once a week.

"Mum! Aaurora hit me!" A small child called as he came running into the dinning room.

"He's lying!" A small squeal came not more then two seconds after.

"Mum they are both annoying me!" A third voice growled as it followed the other two.

Raven rolled her bright indigo eyes as she looked at her three small children standing in front of her.

Alyssa was the oldest by two minutes; she was most like Raven in her personality and her abilities. She had long purple hair that reached just under her shoulder blades, her skin was pale and her eyes were bright green. She had almost all of Raven's powers and she had a tiny bit of her fathers morphing skills.

Kaiden was the second born and the only boy, he was cheeky like his father and was always playing jokes on his two sisters. His scruffy hair was a dark green as his eyes were bright indigo, his skin was less pale then Alyssa's but not by much. He had mostly his father's powers with a little touch of Raven's

Aaurora was the youngest and she acted like it too, she was cheeky like Kaiden but also very stubborn just like her mother; she had bright blue eyes and long black hair that reached just down to her bottom. Her skin was also pale like Raven's and her powers were 50% Raven's and 50% her fathers

"What have I told you about hitting, Aaurora?" Raven asked sternly as she looked at the youngest of her triplets.

"But mum!" She whinged as Raven put her hand up to stop her.

"Where are my three favourite Nieces and Nephew?" A voice called out as Raven heard the front door screech open.

"Uncle Robin!" Aaurora squealed as all three began to run off towards the door.

Raven rolled her eyes as she pushed herself up off the chair, she slowly made her way towards the front door as she turned the corner she saw Robin holding Alyssa and Aaurora on his shoulders as Kaiden clung onto his leg.

"You're trapped now." Raven said with a slight laugh as she looked at her friend.

"Ah it's not that bad." Robin grinned goofily as he walked towards her.

"How is everyone?" Raven asked as she led Robin into the dinning room.

"Yeah they are doing well, I feel bad about lying to them every time I come visit." Robin replied as he tickled both girls as they giggled.

"What about… Him?" Raven asked quietly as she sat back down on the chair she had been sitting on not too long ago.

"He's getting there Rae…" Robin replied as he put Aaurora and Alyssa down onto the ground and ruffled Kaiden's hair before taking a seat next to Raven

"Go play." Raven said as she looked at her three little rugrats.

"But we want to play with Uncle Robin!" Aaurora whined as she tugged on Robins arm.

"He will play with you soon but I would like to talk to him for a moment so off you go." Raven said sternly as Aaurora sigh before all three ran off.

"They are great kids." Robin said as he turned to look at the gothic beauty.

"They have their moments." Raven replied as she picked up her small cup of tea and took a sip.

"Rae there is something I haven't told you…" Robin spoke almost nervously as he rubbed the back of his neck.

"…What?" Raven asked as she peered at him over her tea cup.

"Well… Terra has been back for about a year now…" Robin spoke slowly as he watched Raven's face for an expression.

Raven sat in silence as she took another sip of her herbal tea, it was hard to read Raven's face as she sat poker faced looking at Robin.

"And?" She asked quietly, not changing her expression.

"Well he normally stays locked in his room and she's… in there with him…" Robin let out a sigh as he lent back in his chair.

"Well part of me knew he wouldn't wait for me and well when I come back I doubt he'd want me." Raven said after a moment of silence.

"Rae, come back… They are old enough now and we could use your help." Robin pleaded as he stood up and walked over to her.

"Robin…" Raven started before Robin took a hold of her hands silencing her.
"Look Aaurora, Alyssa and Kaiden are old enough to start practising their abilities and what better place then Titans tower?" Robin's voice was filled with eagerness as he pleaded with her to return.

"It would be bad." Raven hissed as she pulled her hands away from his and stood up.

"It won't be as bad as you think." Robin persisted as he followed her into the kitchen.

Raven placed her cup gently into the large sink of hot soapy water as she let out a sigh before turning around to face Robin.

"This will be bad for you too because you knew about the rugrats." Raven said with a slight frown.

"I know but I will tell them it was for the best-"

"But what about Beastboy, I mean I ran off and had his kids without him ever knowing." Raven interrupted as she began pacing up and down the kitchen.

"I didn't say it would be easy Raven, I just said we need you and I think it'll be best for the kids." Robin grabbed a hold of Raven's shoulders to stop her from pacing as he looked her deep in the eyes.

"I'll be with you." He said reassuringly as he heard Raven's sigh of defeat.

"This isn't going to go well." Raven's voice seemed a little shaky.

"It'll be rough but it's for the best." Robin smiled at her as she frowned back.

"You can have the pleasure of telling my kids we are moving, I guess I'll go pack. Raven mumbled as she walked off leaving Robin in the kitchen.

Raven pulled out a large suitcase as she heaved it onto her bed; she plunked herself down next to it as she let out a long, drawn out sigh as she looked around the room that had been hers for the passed four years, what was she doing? Why was she going back to Titans Tower?

"Mummy Uncle Robin told us we are all coming to live with him is that true?" Aaurora squealed as she burst into the room throwing herself at her mother.

"It's very true…" Raven replied as she caught her daughter and brought her into a hug.

"Is that where you lived mum?" Alyssa asked as she walked into the room holding Robin's hand.

"It is." Raven answered with a slight nod as she gave Aaurora a squeeze.

"Is dad there?" Kaiden asked quietly as Raven stared at Robin.

"We'll talk about that later." Raven said sharply as she placed Aaurora on the ground.

"Come on you lot, lets go pack." Robin said as he grabbed Kaiden and put him over his shoulder making him giggle as the two girls followed closely behind.

Raven smiled at how well Robin was with her kids as she sat on her bed and thought for a minute, she shook her head as she stood up and began to pack her clothes into the suitcase.

An hour and a half later Robin was packing suitcases into the back of the T-car as Kaiden helped him as best as he could, Raven was in her old room getting Alyssa and Aaurora dressed for the trip. She dressed Aaurora first as she grabbed the small pink dress that had bright orange and yellow flowers covering it and a light pink ribbon around the waist with a bow at the front, Raven slipped it over her head as she spun her around and did up the zipper.

"Go get your socks and shoes on." Raven said to Aaurora as she pulled Alyssa over to her.

"You're worried about this mummy, why?" Alyssa asked as she was pulled over to Raven.

"Stop reading my mind Alyssa." Raven sighed as she frowned at her daughter.

Raven took the plain light purple dress off the bed as she slipped it over Alyssa's head; the dress was the same style as Aaurora's but it was just plain purple with a black ribbon across the middle. Raven zipped her up as she waved her over to get her shoes, as she got dressed herself.

Raven wore a low cut red dress with black trimmings, a crimson fabric wrapped around her waist tied into a large bow at the back as the ends of the bows went down to the back of her thighs, long flowing sleeves went down her arms leaving her shoulders revealed, as a spider web type pattern flared out around the bottom half of the dress, black lace hanging off the bottom of the dress just above her thighs. It was a gothic/ Japanese Kimono styled dress, showing off every inch of Raven's body.

"Mummy you look so pretty!" Aaurora squealed as she finished putting on her white socks and pink clogs.

"Come here munchkin." Raven replied as she pulled out a pink ribbon and tired it around Aaurora's hair and tying it into a small bow that sat neatly to the right side of her holding her long hair out of her face.

"Mummy, what's daddy like?" Alyssa asked as Raven did the same thing to her hair as Aaurora's but with a black ribbon and on the left side not the right.

"He's great." Raven answered truthfully as both girls faces lit up into a smile.

Raven took both girls hands as she walked out of the room; she stopped and looked back at it just before sighing and shutting the door slowly behind her.

"Such a great helper little man!" Robin high fived Kaiden as he smiled ear to ear.

"How do we look Uncle Robin?" Aaurora announced happily as they walked up to them.

"Like three very beautiful girls." Robin replied as he smiled at Raven.

"Not leaving without saying good bye to me?" The deep voice of Bruce chuckled as he stood in the door way.

"Go say goodbye to Grandpa Bruce." Raven looked at her three children as they nodded and ran over to him.

"Raven you look stunning." Robin whispered with a smile as Raven flashed a smile back.

"Goodbye Grandpa Bruce!" Aaurora squealed as she hugged him tightly.

"Now I want you guys to come back and visit me some time, it was nice having company." Bruce shot a look at Raven just before smiling softly.

"We will!" Kaiden replied as he too hugged his 'grandpa'.

"Goodbye grandpa." Alyssa said sweetly as she hugged him as well.

"Hop in the car and Uncle Robin will make sure you're strapped in." Raven said as she walked up towards Bruce.

"Ah Raven, it was lovely having you stay with me. I must say I've never had anyone beat me at chess before." Bruce chuckled as he brought the dark beauty into a bear hug.

"Thank you for everything Bruce." Raven whispered just before letting him go and smiling.

Raven and Robin got into the car as Aaurora, Alyssa and Kaiden sat excitedly in the back, Raven clenched her fists tightly as she took a deep breath as Robin started the long journey home.

Three and a half hours later Robin had pulled into the Titan's Tower garage, Raven was breathing rigidly as she clenched her fists tighter then before.

"Raven calm down." Robin said softly as he put his hand on her arm firmly.

"Oh sure… because this isn't going to be hell." Raven replied as she looked back at her kids.

They were fast asleep as this caused Raven to smile slightly, Robin let out a laugh as he looked back at the three.

"They almost look like angel don't they?" Robin joked as he opened the car door.
"Almost… Hey guys, time to wake up." Raven called out as she gently shook each one of their legs.

"Are we home?" Alyssa asked as she rubbed her eyes tiredly.

"Oh yeah, we're home." Raven replied slightly sarcastically as she hopped out of the car.

Raven helped Alyssa and Kaiden out of the car as Robin took out the still sleeping Aaurora, Raven took once glance at Aaurora and shook her head, rolling her eyes. Raven took a hold of their hands as Robin carried Aaurora who was still asleep. As they walked towards the elevator Raven stopped as she breathed heavily.

"I can't do this." Raven said snapping into reality as she looked up at Robin.

"Calm down Rae." Robin said calmly as he looked back at her.

"Are we stupid? Why did you talk me into this?" Raven growled as the small light bulb that sat in the middle of the garage became surrounded in a black aura as it blew up.

"Mum you need to calm!" Alyssa said sternly, mocking all the times Raven had told her that.

"Yes you're right." Raven replied slowly as she took a deep breath.

"Come on elevator is here." Robin said as he stepped into it holding the door open for Raven.

Raven looked terrified as Alyssa and Kaiden pulled her into the elevator, the door shut as Raven couldn't control her breathing, Alyssa squeezed her hand causing Raven to look down at her.

"Even if daddy is mad, I still love you." Alyssa said with a small smile on her face.

"Thank Hun." Raven replied but deep down she still felt extremely nervous.

Raven heard the ding of the elevator door as it swished open; Raven took a deep breath as she watched Robin walk out, and then followed closely behind.

"Friend Robin you are—"Starfire stopped in midsentence as she stared at Robin.

"Hey Star." Robin smiled sweetly at her as she was in front of him in a second.

"Who is this?" She asked as she gently prodded the sleeping child in his arms.

"Her name is Aaurora." Raven said as she gave a small smile to Starfire.

"FRIEND RAVEN!" Starfire practically screamed as she tackle hugged Raven so tightly Raven felt winded.

"Hi Star." Raven gasped out as Starfire let go of her.

"Please Raven, why are there three little children?" Starfire asked as she looked at the two holding Raven's hands.

"Their… Mine…" Raven replied slowly as Starfire's smile widened.

"Oh hello little Raven's!" Starfire squealed as Kaiden hid behind Raven's leg.

"This is Alyssa and Kaiden… and that is Aaurora." Raven said as Starfire clapped excitedly.

The main room door swished open as Raven's heart skipped a beat, that is until she saw Cyborg and calmed down at little, the five of them turned to look at him as he raised his eyebrows before seeing Raven.

"Raven!" Cyborg said happily as he made his way over to her.

Raven let go of her two kids' hands as she glided over to Cyborg and into his hug that he was holding out for her, he squeezed her tightly before letting go of her smiling.

"How was home?" Cyborg asked cheerfully seeming not to notice the three little extras.

"I wasn't at home…" Raven replied slowly as she looked up at the mechanical man.

"Then what happened?" Cyborg questioned as he pulled a face.

"Mum does he not see us here?" Alyssa asked bluntly, showing her true 'Raven personality'.

"Mum?" Cyborg questioned as he then noticed the two standing there looking at him.

"Yes… The rude one is Alyssa, that's Kaiden and… Robin has Aaurora." Raven pointed to each as Cyborg's mouth hung open.

"Does BB know?" Cyborg asked as Raven let out a long sigh.

"No." She replied as she bit her bottom lip.

"So you just show up with three kids?" Cyborg asked with slight aggression.

"Hey Cyborg you should hear the story before you judge." Robin jumped to Raven's defensive in an instant.

"Mum he isn't thinking very nice things…" Alyssa said slowly as she put her hands over her ears.

"Please stop thinking Cyborg, I left so he could have a normal childhood he was only sixteen." Raven looked up at Cyborg as he let out a sigh.

"So were you." Cyborg let out yet another sigh as he pulled her into another hug.

"I could handle myself." Raven replied as Cyborg let go of her once again.

"We'll your one yummy mummy." Cyborg joked lightly as Raven sent a small smile back.

Raven walked back over to Alyssa and Kaiden as she gently picked them up as Kaiden clung to Raven's neck 'hiding' from them as Alyssa stared at them in an interested way.

"They are truly beautiful Raven!" Starfire squealed loudly as Aaurora jumped awake, squeezing Robin neck in terror.

"Aaurora release!" Robin choked out to the little four year-old as she realised where she was.
"Sorry Uncle Robin!" Aaurora squealed as she 'hugged him better'.

"Robin… Have you known all along?" Cyborg asked as he eyed him.

"Yes, Raven was staying at my fathers; it's where I went once a week." Robin answered as he placed Aaurora onto the ground.

"I'm Aaurora!" She squealed as she ran up to Cyborg and put her tiny hand out for a hand shake.

"Hi." Cyborg said politely as he shook her hand gently.

"I am Starfire!" Starfire zoomed in front of her with a grin.

"Mummy told me lots about you!" Aaurora squealed over excitedly as she gave Starfire a big hug.

"Oh I am pleased!" Starfire hugged the little girl back as she grinned up at Raven.

"Have… where is… Beastboy?" Raven asked quietly as she looked up at Cyborg.

"In his room I think." Cyborg replied slowly as he stopped to think about how to put it.

"Who's Terra mum?" Alyssa asked as she turned to her mother.

"What is 'drinking to death' mean and what is this drink that causes death?" Aaurora added as she looked back over to her mother as well.

"You can't think around those two by the way." Raven said as she put Alyssa down, keeping Kaiden as he stayed attached to her.

Alyssa ran over to Aaurora as she grabbed onto her hand tightly, Alyssa and Aaurora had a strange 'extra' bond compared to the bond the three of them had together, that is why Kaiden was more of a 'mummy's boy'. Alyssa tugged Aaurora slowly over to her mothers' side almost protectively. The door swished open again as everyone seemed to turn around to look, Beastboy stood at the doorway with only his boxers on, his six pack showed off as did his arms and lean legs; Raven felt her heart race as she stood there in silence.

"What's going on?" Beastboy questioned as he looked at Starfire, Robin and Cyborg.

"You might want to take a seat BB." Cyborg said in a calm voice as Beastboy raised an eyebrow at him.

"Is that him?" Aaurora tried to whisper but was too excited as she seemed to yell it.

Beastboy raised an eyebrow as Cyborg, Robin and Starfire slowly moved out of the way leaving Raven and the three small children in clear view.

"Raven?" Beastboy question as he stared at her.

"Hi… Beastboy..." Raven replied nervously as Kaiden lifted his head to look at his father.

"What… are those?" Beastboy asked as he pointed towards the three children.

"Those?" Alyssa growled in a defensive way.

"Alyssa, shush." Raven said sternly as she got a frown in reply.

"But!" Alyssa went to argue as Raven shot her a look.

"'Those' are my kids actually." Raven replied calmly as she looked up at Beastboy.

"So not only did you leave me, you got with someone else?" Beastboy yelled in anger as Raven rolled her eyes.

"They are four." Raven said simply as Beastboy seemed to stare at them.

"He's thinking about it." Aaurora whispered as she tugged on her mothers dress.

"They are mine?" Beastboy asked in disbelief as he stared at the four of them.

"Yes." Raven answered simply.

"No they aren't." Beastboy growled as he walked towards them.

"I assure you they are." Raven said bluntly as she put Kaiden onto the ground before pushing the three of them behind her.

"Well go back to where ever you came from because I don't want them." Beastboy growled as he stopped right in front of Raven.

Aaurora began to burst into tears as the power in titans tower began to go crazy, it flickered on and off as the TV began to crack, Raven quickly turned around and pulled Aaurora into a hug as the little girl cried.

"Robin can you take them, I don't think they need to be here for his" Raven called out as Robin ran over to them.

Robin picked up the crying girl as he took a hold of Alyssa's hand who grabbed onto Kaiden's.

"Let's go play in Starfire's room." He cooed softly to the crying girl as he left the room, Starfire following closely behind him.

"You think you can just show up here and beg for me back?" Beastboy yelled as his breath stunk of cheap beer.

"I came back because Robin asked me too." Raven replied calmly as she looked at the person she had once loved.
"And then you bring those little rats with you?" He spat as he pushed Raven roughly backwards.

"Hey man back off!" Cyborg yelled as he stepped in front of Raven.

"It's alright Cy, just shows why I left in the first place, have fun getting drunk asshole. Just so you know those 'little rats' are three great kids who couldn't wait to meet their father. What a joke." Raven spat as she walked out of the room without looking back.

Raven's mind yelled and screamed as she made her way towards Starfire's room but she refused for it to get the better of her, she needed to be strong as she let a single tear slip down her soft pale cheeks. Starfire's door swished open as Raven quickly wiped the tear away as she walked in.

Alyssa, Aaurora and Kaiden came running towards her as she bent down and held out her arms waiting for them to give her a hug, which shortly after they did.

"I don't want you guys to think of him as your father, because right now that isn't your father… You're father is a great guy you just need to wait." Raven said as she hugged her three children tightly.

"He said he didn't want us." Aaurora whispered as Raven kissed her forehead.

"He is just in shock that's all." Raven replied as she weakly smiled at them.

"Your sad, mummy." Alyssa stated as Aaurora nodded.

"Yeah watch out for these two, they can read minds." Raven tried to laugh as she looked up at Starfire.

"You okay Rae?" Robin asked sincerely as she looked up at him and nodded.

"Mummy I want to play a game." Kaiden complained as he tugged on her arm.

"Oh really? What game would you like to play?" Raven asked as she pulled her only boy into a hug.

"I want my game station!" Kaiden replied as Raven let out a small laugh.

"Sometimes I wonder if you kids are really four or twenty four." Raven tickled Kaiden as he giggled.

"You know Kaid, Cyborg has a game station with a whole heap of games." Robin said as Kaiden's eyes widened.

"Come on lets go have a look." Raven said as she stood up and passed Kaiden onto Starfire as she happily took him.

Robin picked up Aaurora as Raven took Alyssa up in her arms. They walked out together hopping Beastboy had gone back into his room, as they turned into the main room they all seemed to sigh with relief as he wasn't there.

"Hey Cyborg, Kaiden is a huge game station fan." Robin said as he walked in putting Aaurora down as she ran over to the big titans lounge.

"Oh really?" Cyborg let out a laugh as he looked at the small green haired boy.

"Don't be fooled by his age Cyborg, these children are lucky and all got my brains." Raven said as she playfully dropped Alyssa onto the lounge.

"Yeah I kick butt!" Kaiden grinned as he morphed into a white kitten to slip out of Starfire's hands, startling her.

"Just watch out though because they are all a bunch of cheats." Raven called out from the kitchen as she switched on the kettle.

"Then bring it on little dude!" Cyborg said as he passed the controller over to him.

"Raven!!" They heard Beastboy yell from the hallways.
"Beastboy stop it!" A familiar voice growled as Raven realised it to be Terra's.

"I want Raven!" Beastboy yelled angrily to her.

Alyssa, Aaurora and Kaiden looked up at their mother slightly scared as Beastboy began to scream from the hallways again.

"Stay here kids I'll be right back." Raven said as she gave them a small smile before walking towards the hallway.

The main doors swished open as Raven walked out into the hallways, she looked to her left as she saw Beastboy crouched over against the wall and Terra leaning over him telling him to calm down.

"Raven…" Beastboy growled as he pushed Terra away from him.

"Beastboy you need to go have a shower." Raven said as she slowly walked up to him.

"Go away Raven, you've done enough to him." Terra spat as she made her way back over to Beastboy.

"I don't think this is any of your concern now is it, Terra." Raven growled back as she folded her arms.

"Do you really want to start me?"

I know this chapter was a little on the boring side but I need to get it out of the way so I can get on with the good stuff, please review!
