Author's Notes
I will respond to all reviews for this chapter along with chapter 1 in the author's notes section of chapter 3.
Now, let's continue the story.
A long time ago, the Demon's Hand, or the Demon's Glove in some countries, was a legendary artifact that its origins can dated thousands of years ago. The hand originated from a powerful demon called Skazaar, a powerful and demotic being who has lead armies of demons during medieval times. Skazaar has worked with Morgan Le Fey to help her dethrone King Arthur from his kingdom of Camelot.
But what they didn't expect is that Jason Blood, one of King Arthur's royal knights from Camelot to fight Skazaar. Jason was well known as the host of the demon Etrigan, half brother of Merlin the wizard, so it was no feat that he can manage a fight against the demon warlord.
Their battle was consider so legendary, that no one has ever lived to tell the tale. The battle lasted ten days until Merlin can discovered a way to end Skazaar. When Etrigan was at his last peak, Skazaar was now ready to kill the demon. But it was then Merlin came and perform a spell onto King Arthur's sword, Excalibur, to kill Skazaar for good.
But with Skazaar dead, Morgan Le Fey performed a spell that requires to cut off Skazaar's hand. She forms the hand and cursed it, declaring that whoever wears the hand of Skazaar, dubbed the Demon's Hand can control an army of demons, or simply one.
This was a tale that makes Raven shivered at the thought. But then she thought that since she is only half-demon, there's no way for her to be controlled. She was trained in Azar to keep her heritage in control, and as long as she consumes her human side, she's okay.
Until the artifact is in the hands of a psychotic clown.
Joker and Harley were surprised when they have Raven, the Raven of the Teen Titans in their control. With the Demon's Glove in the hands of a psychopath, no one is safe. Joker has Raven in control and he has some villainous thoughts in mind in what to do with her.
"Oh this is going to be the best joke I've done!" Joker exclaims as he heard Harley fake coughing which makes Joker nervous "I mean, the best joke we've done!"
"But how do we know if the glove works?" Harley states as they both place a finger on their chin to think.
Joker snaps his fingers as an idea pops up in his head "I know, why don't we give her a command."
"Ooh, like a dog!" Harley quipped.
Joker looks at Raven as he extends his Demon Gloved hand towards her "Raven, I command you dance for me! But lose that cloak first, it's getting the way of your...complexion."
The controlled dark Titan did as she was told as she takes off her hooded cloak, leaving her in her leotard glory. Raven raise her hands up as she raised her left leg to step down and do a choreographic dance. The two villains held their laughter as they see the empath dancing like a ballerina. Harley did a wolf whistle as Raven did some leg movement while she danced.
"My, my, she's a good dancer Mistah J." Harley comments "Maybe we should give her a strip tease next?" she asked, but she knew Joker has a different idea.
"The matter is that the glove works my Harley! Think of all the heists we can pull, with Vampira over here." Joker states as he observed the dancing pale skinned girl "She can be our little enforcer." he adds.
"Can I play with her after our spring of crimes and murder?" Harley asked her boyfriend with a hopeful glee.
"Sure, you can play with bird girl whenever you want! She won't remember what we have in store for her." Joker said as he brings out his most wicked smile across his face as the two clowns watched Raven continuing to dance.
After Raven had finished with her dance, the Joker walked up to Raven and shouted, "Now, Raven. Go to 3831 Walnut Street and kill Captain McCullen and everybody present. Use this, and return to this spot the second you have finished." The Joker handed Raven a gun and the half-demon vanished to do what she was commanded.
Phasing inside of the address, Raven found Captain McCullen, a high ranking JCPD officer, asleep along with his wife plus two kids and a greyhound. Arriving in McCullen's bedroom, Raven opened fire with the handgun, executing the captain with two shots to the neck before putting a round between the eyes of McCullen's wife.
Sensing that the kids were waking up upon hearing the gunshots, Raven proceeded out of the main bedroom to encounter McCullen's nine year old son, whom lost his life to a bullet to the heart. McCullen's thirteen year old daughter was next, getting a round in the neck and another in her eye. Lastly, Raven saw the greyhound asleep in the daughter's room and shot it in the back of the neck.
With everybody in the McCullen household dead, Raven promptly teleported back to the Museum where the Joker and Harley were waiting. Harley asked, "Ya think she did it?"
Joker answered, "Of course she did. That do-gooder is gone for good, making it easier for me to take this city and give the Boy Blunder the mother of headaches." Raven returned the gun to the Joker, and the clown prince noticed that there were seven bulllets missing from its twelve round magazine, which proved that Raven committed the murders.
"What next?" The Joker took Harley's question to heart - what is next for them to do with Raven? What crime will they have her pull off next? The Titans still remained unaware of the break-in at the museum and the captain's murder wouldn't go reported until the morning.
Suddenly, a new idea came to the forefront of his mind. He commanded, "Raven, get me every item from the jewelry exhibit on floor three."
And with that, Raven vanished only to return a moment later with a sack full of gold, diamonds, pearls, and other precious stones. Harley took a pearl necklace out of the sack Raven had gotten for them, and placed it on her neck, exclaiming, "It's real and it's perfect!"
The Joker began to go through the sack and marveled at the goodies Raven had gotten them - this was going to prove to be a very beneficial arrangement for him - and Raven would take the fall for the crimes.
Joker asked, "Anything else we need to pick up here?"
Harley shrugged and commented, "Not that I can think of. Let's get back to base so we can further get to know our new pet."
The Joker then commanded, "Raven, put your cloak back on and take us home to the warehouse." Again, without any free will in the matter, Raven complied and put on her cloak before she brought the Joker and Harley back to their warehouse base without being tracked or followed. Nothing would be left behind that would implicate them - not yet anyway.
Now sitting in the comfort of their base, Harley began staring at Raven, taking in every inch of her new servant. Noticing what Harley was doing, the Joker commanded, "Raven, show Harley here your body. All of it."
And much like before, Raven could not resist the influence of the Demon's Hand and shed her cloak and leotard, permitting Harley to bask in Raven's naked glory, as Raven's hands were to the side and legs stretched out so nothing was invisible to the clowns.
Staring at Raven's butt, Harley removed her glove and placed a finger on it, running down Raven's smooth curves to the leg and then deep into Raven's thigh until she reached Raven's exposed womanhood, commenting, "Guess she ain't one of them transvestities."
Moving her finger from the inside of Raven's thigh up to her hip, Harley continued to explore Raven, sliding her finger up Raven's abdomen to the navel, circling around it before pressing it up against Raven's nipples, which lacked erectness as Raven's body was entirely unaware of what was going on - the Demon's Hand controlled her and there was nothing she could do.
Harley mentioned, "She sure is a beauty, ain't she? One hell of a body."
"Hell indeed, Harley. And while I don't want our festivities to end, we'll have to put them on hold. Raven, put your clothes on and return to where you were before you went to the museum."
Raven put her clothes back on before returning to her room in the Tower. Back at the warehouse, the Joker removed the glove from his hand, temporarily ending his control on Raven. The Joker commented, "Now we have a demon at our disposal. Better not let the Titans find out yet."
Back at Titan's Tower, Robin noticed that Raven's been in her room for a long time. As leader of the Titans, he should know what his team is up to. Starfire's busy with Silkie, Beast Boy and Cyborg are at the common room playing video games, and Raven just went into her room like always. After that the Titans have come to their rooms for some sleep, however Robin has a feeling something's up.
The Boy Wonder walks up to the door that rests inside the room of the Dark Titan. The Titans have their own legend told throughout the Tower that those who have tried to enter Raven's room, or interrupts her time in her room, never returns. It was just a little inside joke between him, Beast Boy, and Cyborg came up with during their guy's night out.
He knocked on the door three times as he waits for the little sister of the Titans to open. He waited for about an hour, he also tried to contact her with the communicator, but no answer since the communicator's inside her room. It was then he heard footsteps coming from the halls. He wondered if it was either one of the team members, but it was Raven.
"Raven where have you been?" Robin asked her.
"I..." Raven tries to find an answer, as she rubs her head and feels her arms and legs ache; as if she's been moving around "What time is it?"
"It's past midnight. Everyone's asleep and you weren't in your room." He told her, which startled the empath "I tried to contact you with the communicator, but you didn't answered."
"I didn't have it with me." Raven states as she grew worried. She didn't know where she was, which was a bad thing.
When morning came, Robin received a call from the chief of police, Chief Hodgkins. The chief greeted, "Hello, Robin."
Robin replied, "What is it, Chief?"
"We got a robbery at the Natural History Museum and a quintuple homicide."
"What happened?"
The chief explained, "A couple of items from the occult exhibition as well as most of the jewelry were stolen last night. About a dozen guards murdered, security footage is no good since the cameras were destroyed."
"And the homicide?"
He sighed before replying, "The McCullen family."
"You mean Captain McCullen?"
"The same. Somebody broke in and shot all four of them, as well as the dog. No fingerprints or footprints. No security system alerts either. The gun was an unregistered nine millimeter handgun, one that could be found in any number of households. Maybe you could help us find some clues and lead us to the killer."
Robin answered, "I fear I may already know who is responsible."
"Who?"
"The Joker."
"That mad clown? Ain't he supposed to be in Gotham, not in this city?"
"Yes. He could have been here as long as two months, and we just found out he was here yesterday. If he was responsible, then we could be looking at a lot more death and destruction."
"I'll send you all copies of police reports from the past two months. Figure out which ones were the Joker's doing. And make it fast. The sooner that clown is gone, the better."
The chief hung up, leaving Robin to ponder just what the Clown Prince of Crime had been up to last night.
Meanwhile, in her room, Raven was meditating in an attempt to find out what had happened, and it had been incredibly fruitless in its results. From what she could figure out, she had entered her room after defeating Mumbo Jumbo (who wasn't that hard to beat) and had taken off her boots, but then completely blanked out and had lost about an hour of her life.
Part of the ability of the Demon's Hand was to act as a buffer in the possessed's mind, blocking their ability to receive memories or have any cognitive control - Raven would never be able to find out what she did from her memories - she'd need to be told what happened, and even then, she wouldn't remember the events exactly, but she would know what she did.
And if Raven found out what had happened, she'd wish those memories were buried deep and tight inside of her mind. After an hour of unsuccessful meditation, Raven realized there was some powder residue on her arm - the gunpowder from when Raven killed the McCullens, and proceeded to go into the bathroom.
She pulled up her sleeve and doused the arm in hot water and soap, removing all traces of said residue from her skin. If anybody ran a GSR test on her right now, they would find that the results were negative.
Staring at her reflection in the mirror, she looked at herself and found she was a bit haggard, surprisingly worn and her limbs aching. If she could only remember, she would be able to know what happened, and if she had her communicator on her, then she would be able to trace her movements and find where in the city she had been.
Pulling her sleeve back up, Raven left the bathroom and returned right to her room, still confused as to what had happened and dreading the endless questions the other Titans were going to prod her with upon learning of what happened - questions she didn't have answers for.
Laying down on her bed, with her head staring right in front of the mattress, Raven groaned as somebody knocked on her door. Raven levitated out from her bed and up to the door, only to see the Boy Wonder there.
Raven asked, "What is it, Robin?"
Robin answered, "We got a mass homicide to investigate. The McCullen family. May have something to do with the Joker, but I'm not sure."
Raven commented, "Better safe than sorry." Well, she would definitely be sorry if the Titans found out what she had done there.
Later on at night while the rest of the Titans finished their investigation on the homicide of the McCullen family, Raven went back to her room so she can meditate. She had on her communicator with her so when she blacks out the communicator will be with her person. Once she takes her boots off again, she sat on her bed as she cross her legs and gets into her meditating position.
As she levitated from her bed, she had this ringing feeling inside of her head. But before she could learn from it she blanked out. Her body subconsciously teleported out of her room to the destination she is called out to her.
"Ah, glad you've made it my pet." Joker stated with a wide sick grin in his mind "Now I want you to do some things for me, Raven."
"What is it, Master?" Raven asked in a trance like monotone. Joker then noticed that she has her communicator with her.
"First off, hold still while I take that device from your person." he said as he reach out and took the communicator off of her and smashed it to pieces with his shoe. So much for being able to track her whereabouts.
Joker then picked something out of the sleeve of his purple suit as he throws three pictures of Jump City's notorious villains: Fang, Killer Moth, and his daughter Kitten Walker.
"Now what I want you to do is to slaughter these three people. You see, Killer Moth used to be a villain in Gotham, but he was a nobody so he high tailed here to make a name for himself. I want you is to slaughter him and the spider boy and make his blond daughter watch before killing her too. After you're done, do whatever Harley wants you to do." He instructs the demoness with a smile that would make the devil himself to call him scum.
"Oh I know what to do with her." Harley Quinn said as with a lustful look in her smiling face.
"Now go to 435 Quartz Ave. and do as I told you to do and slaughter them like animals." Joker cruelly said as Raven nodded and then teleports to where Killer Moth's home is.
At the home of the Walkers where it's a normal looking home of the notorious Jump City criminal Killer Moth, or Drury Walker. In the normal home that looks like the set of the Brady Bunch, the mutated moth-man was busy making some dinner for his daughter and her now fiance Fang.
Drury is actually a little bitter with his daughter now getting pregnant with Fang, his once past experiment who was once Fredrick DiCaprio who was a victim of Walker's cross species experiments. Fang and Kitten are at the living room as Kitten reads some wedding catalogs and magazines.
"How about this for our wedding, Fangie-poo?" Kitten asked as she showed her fiance the pictures of the catalog. Apparently she is 3 months old pregnant.
"Anything you want, pumpkin." Fang replied to his love.
"Alright you two, dinner's almost read-GYAAAAHHH!" Killer Moth called out as something pierced him on the shoulder.
"Daddy!?" Kitten shouts as she and Fang stood up from the couch as they rushed into the kitchen as they saw Raven holding Killer Moth by the neck "Hay what's the deal you bitch! We did nothing illegal!" Kitten screeched as the mind controlled empath turns her head and encased Kitten with her black magic and pins her to the wall, and have her eyes spread wide opened and her mouth covered.
"Hey, what are you-!?" Fang didn't get to say as he's pushed back to the living room so she can finish off Killer Moth.
"No, please! I-I haven't done anything! I'm just house dad now!" Drury begged to the dark Titan who didn't respond as she brought one black tendril to reach out for his neck and then more tendrils wrapping around his arms and legs. All Kitten could do is watch as her father's limbs and head are being forcefully pulled separately as blood ooze out of the paroled criminal's body. Kitten wants to scream as tears falls from her eyes after witnessing her father's death.
"STOP THIS!" Fang shouts as he angrily as he crawled towards Raven. "WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS!?" he demanded but he got no answer as Raven dropped the body and used her telekinesis to bring a chainsaw out of the closet as she turned it on. The chainsaw was aimed straight towards Fang as he was about to escape, but Raven's dark magical energy wrapped his eight spider legs as she levitated the chainsaw and headed it straight towards his spider's head, splitting it apart.
Kitten muffled as she starts to cry some more. She was completely helpless after she saw her father and fiance getting killed by the Titan. Her mind rushed into question like why is she doing this? What reason did they do to piss her off? She was going to invite them to the wedding, if there will be one.
But the bratty blond grew worried when Raven turned her head towards her. She muffled a scream when she saw Raven levitating the chainsaw towards her, aiming right at her stomach.
As the chainsaw hit, blood splattered all over the kitchen. Within seconds, Kitten ceased to exist.
Raven returned to the Joker and he asked, "Did you do it?" Raven nodded that she had slaughtered the Walker clan - Drury, Kitten, and Fang.
The Joker laughed in glee as another one of Gotham's villains had been removed once and for all. He could not wait until all of Jump City was his, but there was still miles and miles to go and many more villains he had to eradicate first, none of which seemed like a problem to him as he now had the dark Titan under his beck and call.
The question now was what to do with her? But, the Joker soon thought, 'The night is still young, so we can still go for hours.'
Harley inquired, "What's up next for her?"
The Joker thought about that for a moment before responding to Raven, "Dearie, would you go to the old gymnasium downtown, where I saw little Adonis, and crush him for me."
Raven smirked as she teleported over to the abandoned gymnasium, where Adonis was hiding out and building his figure in order to square off with the Titans. And maybe finally take Raven all for himself.
Raven levitated towards him as he was pumping a two hundred pound weight, lifting it up and down without a single care in the world, unaware of the threat that lured behind him.
She tipped the barbell onto Adonis's throat and he immediately began to choke as he was being suffocated by the weights. Raven used her dark magic to latch on two more two hundred pound weights on, causing Adonis to asphixiate, his throat trying to take in any air it could, only for the teen's lungs to give out, and Adonis breathed no more.
Returning to the Joker, Raven reported, "Adonis is finished." The clown couple grinned happily as they stared at the blue-eyed Raven, in no control over her actions as the Joker manipulated Raven to do whatever he chose her to do, whether it be murdering his enemies or providing some good old entertainment.
A second later, the Joker passed the Demon's Hand onto Harley, and his girlfriend soon began to think about what she was going to do with her slave. After a moment of thought, Harley responded, "Raven, lose the cape and perform three hundred jumping jacks in a row."
Unable to defy her master, the cloak was quickly shed from Raven's body as the empath began performing jumping jacks for Harley, allowing her to marvel at Raven's petite figure and stare at her breasts as they shook up and down, jiggling from each jumping jack she did.
After several minutes of performing jumping jacks, Raven reached her three hundredth jumping jack and stopped, leaving a fairly sweaty half-demon. Then, much to the Joker's shock, Harley stripped out of her shirt and pants, leaving her just clad in a pair of Joker panties and commanded Raven, "Give me a full back massage."
Again, Raven complied and began to tenderly rub Harley's back, fully following her orders as Harley moaned in pleasure. The scene would have been much more shocking had there been people around, but it was a completely vacant area with no civilians coming to interrupt the Joker's fun - nobody was to know about the Demon's Hand except for Joker and his Harley Quinn.
Continuing to massage Harley, Raven moved her hands up and down her back, rotating circles across both of Harley's shoulders, loosening up the tension as she breathed a sigh of relaxation. Raven gently slid her hands across Harley's lower back and spine to make sure everything was okay there.
After close to ten minutes of working on Harley's back, the harlequin ordered, "Now, massage my ass."
Raven moved her hands onto Harley's buttocks and gently rubbed one of her butt cheeks, seeing how smooth and plump it was before rotating towards the other one, caressing it with affection. Several minutes flew by and Raven then finished taking care of Harley and her demands.
Harley put her clothes back on before handing the Demon's Hand back over to the Joker. Staring at his wrist watch (which of course was stolen), he commanded, "Put your cloak back on and return to your Tower."
Raven once again followed orders, slipping on her hooded cloak before teleporting over to Titans Tower. The Joker took off the glove and put it back in safe keeping - he didn't want Raven to inadvertently reveal his greatest trick before it was the right time.
Harley commented, "Can't wait to see what we tell her to do tomorrow."
Back at the Tower, the Titans gathered around in the common room after Raven appeared again just as Robin gave her a scolding for disappearing again.
"Not only did you run out and disappeared again, you've lost your communicator!" Robin chastises her like what a father does to his daughter "I've tried contacting you, but you didn't answered!"
"I'm sorry, but I don't know what's going on with me." Raven argued back as she gets up and leave so she can meditate in her room.
"I'm not finished talking to you, Raven!" Robin shouted back at her.
"Stop treating me like a kid!" she retorted as she disappears into her room.
Robin sighed as he looks at his team "What am I going to do with her?" he asked as he sits next to Starfire.
"Chill out, Rob." Cyborg told his leader and best friend "Where ever Raven was, nobody was around to see her so we lack witnesses."
"Oh what has come to Friend Raven?" Starfire asked as she grew worried about her friend who looks up to like a sister.
"I don't know, Star." Robin replied as he comforts his girlfriend.
"What can we do for now?" Beast Boy asked.
"For now, we focus on finding the Joker." Robin told as his teammates nodded in agreement.
The next day, the Titans received a report on the murders of the Walker family. The Titans went to the home of Killer Moth as they were appalled by the scene. Starfire cried in tears after she learned that Kitten was pregnant; even though Star can't stand Kitten, but she did not wish for her death, especially if she was pregnant and even moreso when she saw that Kitten was having twins. Cyborg and Beast Boy threw up outside after watching the carnage as Raven flinched when she saw the scene.
"My god, did Joker did all of this?" Cyborg asked as he looks sick.
"I thought he was crazy, but this is just monstrous." Beast Boy replied "They didn't even deserved this."
"Kitten and Fang were killed by a chainsaw." Robin states as he looks away of the scene of Kitten's body as her head was separated from her body as her stomach was ripped opened as decapitated embryo twins spread all over the floor with guts and intestines on the floor.
"There's also a report of murder at a abandoned gymnasium." Cyborg noted "The victim was Adonis. Cause of death was suffocation by the barbells on his throat with four hundred pound weights."
"To think I thought that blowhard would die of steroid overdose." Beast Boy states as his voice shows no sympathy towards Adonis.
"Hoist by his own petard, right?" Raven asked as she noticed Robin placing his hand on his chin to put his mind into thought.
The boy wonder rubs his chin as he tries to pin point the Joker's murders on Jump's notorious criminals. But then he notice how the murders were around the time Raven's black outs and disappearances are the same time. He wish he doesn't want to, but he have to suspect that Raven's black-outs may have a connection. But Raven's not the type to kill, unless she's under a influence.
But the big question is, where's the Joker? And how did he play in all this?
Now, it's been a week since the Joker got his hands on the Demon's Hand, and a week since he had taken control of Raven with it. Every night, the Joker summoned Raven to his place, making her leave her communicator behind so he and Harley could have fun with her. Throughout the past week, the Joker has had Raven murder the McCullen family, Killer Moth, his daughter Kitten and her fiance Fang, Adonis, Mad Mod (by snapping his neck with her black magic), Ding Dong Daddy (by running over him with a car, crushing his skull), Mumbo Jumbo (stealing his hat before stabbing him in the abdomen and chest repeatedly), Johnny Rancid (rigging his motorcycle with a bomb, igniting it and burning Johnny Rancid alive), and Professor Chang (dissolving him in a vat of hydrochloric acid). In addition to the thirteen murders committed under the Joker's thrall, Raven has also committed a series of heists, taking jewelry, gold, and cash with a total worth close to four hundred million dollars.
Though, criminal acts weren't all Raven had been doing - she also had been pleasuring the Joker and Harley Quinn - allowing them to explore her body and one night, they drew all over it with magic marker (the two laughed uncontrollably while they did), giving Harley and the Joker massages, and dancing for them.
And all the while, Robin still could not figure out what had happened - the Joker made sure there was no way for Robin to follow Raven - making her ditch her communicator in the Tower or forcing her to hand it over (one night, the Joker threw Raven's communicator into a city dumpster on the other side of the city, miles away from his position. And Raven had absolutely no idea what she was doing - she couldn't provide an alibi for her whereabouts under the Joker's control and couldn't explain the weirdness that had happened to her - especially the magic marker.
By day, the Titans spent most of their time tracking down the Joker and investigating the crimes perpetrated by the Joker through his control of Raven.
As usual, the Joker summoned Raven to him, making her take her communicator off of her before coming to him. With both the Joker and his girlfriend Harley grinning like crazed, deranged lunatics, the Joker ordered, "Well, now that you're here, Raven...Go to see Mister Hodgkins and turn him into my latest message."
Raven droned, "Yes master" and teleported off to the residence of Police Chief Malcolm Hodgkins, where he rested calmly, unaware of what was going on beside and around him.
Grabbing a knife from Hodgkins's cutlery, Raven went up to him and placed the knife in his mouth, carving a creepy smile into the man's face before severing the man's head from his chest.
Leaving the knife near the body, no fingerprints present anywhere on the victim or the knife, Raven tossed the severed head out of the man's apartment and it landed in the middle of the street, where it was struck by an SUV, which caused it to swerve and crash into a building, killing all five passengers in the car.
Raven returned to the Joker with six more bodies on her record and the mad clown asked, "Is it done?"
Harley interrupted, "Not only is the chief dead, but five more went along with him!"
The madman broke out in disturbing, unnaturally calm laughter that would intimidate lesser men and cause them to drown themselves to elude him. If the Joker was not a monster now, he had easily become one, a man incapable of redemption for all of his heinous, brutal crimes and murders.
Now allowing Harley to have her fun with Raven by handing the Demon's Hand to her, the Joker went off to plan his next move. Immediately, Harley grabbed the bag she had left nearby and ordered, "Strip out of that crap you call clothing and put on this instead."
Without any resistance (she couldn't resist because of the glove's influence), Raven took off the cloak and leotard, replacing it with the outfit in Harley's bag - a pink and yellow spotted sports bra and a light blue loincloth that left her hips exposed, no panties.
Harley took a minute to look at the newly-dressed Raven and then ordered her, "Now, swing that ass of yours and dance for me."
Again, under complete control of Harley, Raven began to move her torso around, causing the bottom of the loin cloth to sway. Hopping a leg in the air, Raven spun around rapidly before prancing in the air. Landing, Raven performed a backflip that allowed Harley to look at Raven's naked rear end.
Further moving her hips, Raven flipped the front of the loincloth up, flashing her womanhood to Harley as she continued the dance with Harley clapping all the way, "Go! Keep going! Don't stop!"
Indeed, Raven could not stop, continuing to perform for Harley until the Joker came in. The Joker told Harley, "Our fun has to end for today. We cannot allow the Titans to know what's going on."
Harley gave the Joker the Demon's Hand and he continued, "Raven, return to the Tower."
She complied, exiting the Joker's lair in the loincloth and bra, completely barefoot. Now, she was going to have more than a few questions with no answers.
As Raven appears back in the tower, she noticed what she's wearing and she's not wearing any underwear. Feeling violated, she ran to her room but not until Robin stopped her in her tracks.
"Raven, where have you been and what's with those clothes!?" Robin demanded as Raven's face heated up as she covers herself with her arms.
"I-I don't know! The black outs, and the sleep walking, What's happening to me!?" Raven asked in worry.
'This doesn't make sense. Is Raven noctambulating?' Robin thought as he tried to pin point Raven's black outs. Each time he tries to track her with her communicator, she would always lose it. Robin needed to further investigate this, Raven's never suffered this before.
"Yo Rob!" Cyborg shouted over the halls for Robin and Raven to here "I got a pinpoint location on Joker!"
Robin turns around as his masked eyes widen "How did you get that monster's location?"
"Don't know, but Joker's hideout is at the warehouses at the old Rader Ave. Warehouses." Cyborg told him.
"I want all Titans prepare for the raid of the Joker." Robin commands as he looks at Raven "You go and...get properly dress."
Raven nodded as she teleports to her room as she gets on her blue cloak, black leotard, and blue booties as she joins her friends to head down and take care of the Joker, and get him out of their city.
Quickly arriving at the Joker's hideout, Robin busted down the door and confronted the Joker and Harley Quinn, neither of whom were expecting company - the Joker was simply playing with his voodoo doll of Robin while Harley was just drawing a picture of her 'Mistah J' playing with said doll.
Upon noticing the arrival of the Titans, the Joker pulled out an automatic handgun and opened fire on the Titans, trying to drive them off. A quick shield courtesy of Raven ensured that none of the bullets hit the Titans.
Using this window as cover, the Joker hid behind a desk as he yelled to Harley, "Get me the hand!"
Harley quickly complied and slid the Demon's Hand right over to the Joker. Robin noted, "End of the line, Joker. Surrender now."
Putting the Demon's Hand on, none of the Titans noticed Raven's eyes turning blue, indicating that she was under the clown's thrall now. The Joker commented, "No Boy Blunder, because I've got a trick up my arm. Raven, kill these pests."
Raven droned, "Yes master" and proceeded to slam Beast Boy away from her with a burst of dark magical energy. Instantly, the Titans concluded just what had been causing Raven's disappearances.
Cyborg gasped, "That glove is allowing the Joker to control Raven. Explains her disappearances."
Robin added, "And the murders. That monster is using Raven to commit crimes for him."
The Joker clapped sarcastically and congratulated, "Correct boy! This here Demon's Hand puts your gloomy goth right under my control and she'll do whatever I tell her to do. Such as killing you all."
Before Robin could charge at the Joker, he noticed a malfunctioning turbine surrounded in black magic and headed right towards him. Instantly, Robin and Cyborg ran as Raven threw the turbine at them, exploding just as the duo got away from the impact site.
Starfire circled behind Raven and charged up a starbolt, but Raven simply grabbed one of the tables and tossed it behind her, crashing into Starfire.
Beast Boy turned into a lion and ran right towards Raven. The demoness sidestepped the attack and gave a kick to the lion's underbelly, sending Beast Boy flying into the air.
Cyborg fired his sonic cannon at Raven, but a dark shield blocked the attack. The half-robot cried out, "We're not going to hit her! She's too powerful and under the control of that glove, she's almost unstoppable."
Robin replied, "We have to get the Demon's Hand from the Joker. Cy, you and Star keep Raven busy for as long as you can. Beast Boy and I will get the Demon's Hand. Titans go!"
Cyborg fired another round of his sonic cannon at Raven, blocked as expected, but it gave Starfire a window to recover and punch Raven, causing her to sputter onto the floor. Did they expect it to stop her?
No, but it did slow her down a bit, allowing Robin and Beast Boy to sneak away to go after the Joker. Before they could reach the clown, Harley Quinn came out swinging with her hammer, trying to strike the Boy Wonder in the head. Robin blocked the hammer with his bo-staff and aimed a kick for her ribcage, but she blocked the kick and hit Robin in the chest with a kick of her own, sending him down to the ground. Beast Boy charged Harley, turning into a hawk to avoid her swing and began to fly around her, forcing her to swing at the changeling only to miss every time.
Swooping down behind Harley, the falcon's talons proceeded to grab right onto the hammer, trying to wrest it from Harley's grasp, but the clown princess wouldn't go down easily.
Meanwhile, Robin looked for the Joker, who still held the Demon's Hand and was now aiming his handgun right at the Boy Wonder's neck. One good hit and Robin would be gone forever.
Just as the Joker squeezed the trigger, Robin threw a bird-a-rang at the bullets, slicing them down before hitting the barrel of the Joker's gun, rendering it useless. With the gun down for the count, Robin charged at him, punching him in the head as he tried to remove the Demon's Hand from the Joker's arm.
However, the Joker grabbed Robin by the throat and began to choke him, forcing Robin to divert his strength to wresting the Joker's hands away from his throat.
Cyborg and Starfire kept firing on Raven, trying to keep her from going after Robin and Beast Boy - they had to prevent the Joker from getting away and they had to free Raven from his control.
Unfortunately, no matter what they threw at her, Raven blocked it and responded in turn, keeping them behind hard cover to prevent her from getting a lucky hit, but even that wasn't useful as she could phase through walls.
Two starbolts went out against Raven, but shields blocked them both and a countertop went flying right back at Starfire, barely being destroyed before it struck. Never did the Titans realize just how useful Raven's empathy could be in combat.
Beast Boy and Harley continued to struggle for the hammer until finally Beast Boy pecked Harley's hand, causing her to flinch and let go of the hammer. Tossing it away from Harley, Beast Boy returned to human form and picked up the hammer, going after the Joker.
Continuing to choke Robin, the clown did not notice the green one sneaking up behind him and striking with a hammer, hitting him in the butt, causing the Joker to scream and let go of Robin.
Distracted by the pain, the Joker failed to realize Robin had grabbed onto the Demon's Hand and ripped it from his arm. Instantly, Raven's eyes went from blue to their regular amethyst. She was no longer under the Joker's control.
Seeing the massive amount of damage, and Cyborg and Starfire both aiming their blasts right at her, Raven asked, "What's going on? What happened? And why are you aiming your weapons at me?"
Cyborg remarked, "Long story short, the Joker's been usin' you as his enforcer. He had you attack us until Robin managed to remove the Demon's Hand from his arm."
Raven thought, 'Shit!'. The story was more true than she realized. Not only could the Demon's Hand control full-demons, it could control half-demons, and no amount of control over her demonic side could prevent it. That's why she kept blacking out. That's why she found gunpowder residue on her hands that night - she murdered the McCullen family. That's why she was covered in magic marker. That's why she came home to the Tower in a loincloth and bra.
Immediately, Raven flew over towards the Joker, who now realized that Raven was no longer under his control and tried to get away with Harley.
It did not work as they were both blocked off by Raven, eyes glowing white as she stood there, ready to attack and get her revenge for being used as a pawn.
She smashed Harley away with her magic, sending her right into a table for the Titans to capture. As for the Joker, Raven engulfed his clothes with her magic and slammed him across the two walls, battering him repeatedly before sending him crashing through the wall.
Passing through the wall, the Joker impacted a very taut line of string being used as a security measure, and Raven could only stare as the Joker's head was severed from his body, killing the clown once and for all.
Shortly afterwards, cops all came down to the warehouse and aimed their weapons right at Raven, who raised her arms in nervous surrender, knowing she's going to be in a lot of trouble for the twenty bodies she's accountable for.
