Chapter XI

Titan's Tower

A few days passed since Hikari joined the Teen Titans or least became a new resident. Robin was not too thrilled that Raven asked him to let Isamu's sister stay with them. Figuring it is better to keep her close by and keep an eye on her. Rather than just send her away.

Raven trusts Isamu but was unsure about the sister or why she is here. Regardless, once Hikari got settled in, she began getting along with everyone. She bonded quickly with Starfire and her weird alien food, which she ate, and enjoyed. Even wanted to learn how to cook it with her new friend.

She also got along with Cyborg and Beast Boy. Showing her love for video games, horror movies, and even sports. Even Robin began opening up with her when she offered to teach him some fighting styles. Robin accepted and the two were able to bond during training.

Isamu explained to Raven that once his sister got settled into a new place that she can be very nice and kind to everyone. Even find ways to get along with just about anyone. Raven was impressed by this, but kept her eye on her. Making sure she wouldn't do anything.

On this particular night Isamu is on the roof using binoculars to look at the city. Raven appeared from the floor intending to get some fresh air. Once she got to the roof, she saw Isamu nearby and walks over to him. She sits down next to him wondering what he is doing.

"Any reason you are using those binoculars? And where is your sister?"

Isamu took the binoculars off and gives it to Raven. Pointing where to look. Raven took them and began looking through it. She sees Hikari in the city fighting what appears to be a large Hollow that is trying to devour her.

Raven puts the binoculars down and turns to Isamu. "And the reason you are not going to help her is because?"

Isamu shows a notepad that shows a doodle picture of Isamu and Hikari. With their names next to the pictures and what appears to be score numbers under them.

"Our masters used to have us fight against a number of Hollows to see how far we have come in our training," Isamu explained as he took the binoculars and sees his sister now bashing the Hollow in with a lamp post, while shouting at it. "While also keeping score on how many we defeated. All without getting involved in helping the other."

Raven seems shocked to hear that their masters would force them to fight against these monsters on their own. "Sounds barbaric if you ask me."

"Yeah, but it didn't mean they wouldn't be there to make sure we stay safe. I managed to survive and only needed assistance once. My sister though…" he hands the binoculars back to Raven to help her see.

Raven looks through it as she sees the Hollow trying to escape, but Hikari managed to kill it. Slashing her sword on the head and helping purify it as she moves her right hand up. Waving at her brother, unaware Raven is watching. Before Raven could say anything though, Isamu appeared to be aware of this and puts a new score down.

"And this is what you two like to do whenever you are together?" Raven asked as she hands the binocular back to Isamu.

Isamu shook his head in response. "Not always. Usually we spend time playing games, reading stories, or just hang out. Ever since we became Soul Reapers it has been pretty busy. It is rare to be given missions like what we are on to help us loosen up."

Raven knew the feeling very well. It is rare for her and her friends to relax. Anytime they do something bad happens and they are off to stop another bad guy. Even now things have been very difficult.

Ever since Slade came back and knowing who send him made Raven feel uneasy. She has been trying to find a spell to help stop this from happening despite Isamu telling her everything will be all right. As for the others they haven't been able to relax much either. Robin in particular has been spending a lot of time awake trying to figure out what the symbol on Slade's forehead is.

Even now he is in the Common Room with Beast Boy. Going over the surveillance video from the factory. Trying to find a clue on what this symbol is. Hoping it will help them understand how it gave Slade these new powers and why he is after their friend.

"By the way. Do you plan to tell the others the truth soon? I mean, I know you don't want to, but with how things are going. Maybe it wouldn't hurt to tell them," said Isamu as he sees his sister fighting two more Hollows.

Raven turns to Isamu and sighs as she lowered her head. "I'm just worried how they will react when they find out their friend is the daughter of a demon that wants to destroy the world."

"From what I have seen I doubt they will care much about that," said Isamu who doubts her friends will turn on her. "They care about you and seem willing to do anything it takes to make sure you are safe. Even if they do find out the truth."

"How do you know that?" Raven asked as she lifts her head a little.

"I don't, but you do. You know them better than I do," said Isamu as he smiles towards Raven. "I'm sure they will fight by your side and make sure no one tries to harm you. In fact, so would I."

Raven turns to Isamu feeling a little nervous now as he smiled at her. She tried to shake this off and shook her head. "I-I doubt you would want to fight my father. Trust me, he isn't a Hollow."

"I know, but I don't care," said Isamu as he placed his hand on Raven's. "I'll fight alongside you and your friends. Even defeat the devil himself to do it."

Raven felt his hand on top of her own and began blushing a little. She began feeling something building up inside of her. She knew what this was and didn't think she would feel it again after what happened before. However, she wasn't sure how to act on this since she was still worried about how this will go if she acts on them again.

Thankfully, Hikari came back to help ease this problem. "Woo! I killed two more Hollows! And I did it without getting a scratch on me."

Isamu moved his hand away from Raven's so his sister wouldn't see. "O-oh great news sis," he said as he grabs the notepad and gives his sister the scores. "Well, um I guess it is my turn?"

However, Hikari saw this and smiled a little. "Oh of course. Go right ahead, big brother. I'm sure more will come soon."

Isamu nods as he grabs his sister and took off. Once he was gone, Hikari sat down next to Raven who she could see is blushing a little.

"Soooooo, you don't want to join in? I'm sure you could hold your own against these Hollows," said Hikari as she starts off a conversation with the pale girl.

Raven was glad to know Isamu left so she can try regaining her composure. However, being left with Hikari did not make things better. She didn't hate her and wanted to give her a chance. But she felt at times she was plotting something and didn't know what it is.

"I tried it once and it didn't go well," said Raven recalling her first encounter with a Hollow. "I'm also surprise you two made a game out of the corrupted souls of the dead."

"It's help us see how far we have come," Hikari shows dates that are next to the scores. "We started from this date to right now. Showing how many Hollows we have fought and how many we defeated."

Raven looks at the time from the first time it was recorded to now. "Five years? You two have been fighting Hollows for five years?"

Hikari nods in response. "Yep. We didn't count the times our masters helped us fight them or were there to make sure we were ready."

Raven knew the siblings were born human and age like any other human. So, that means they were still young when they fought these monsters that devour human souls.

"Weren't you two scared?"

Hikari couldn't help but smile a little before replying. "We were terrified. At least, I remember I was. My brother tried to act like he wasn't, but I knew he was doing it to make me feel better. Deep down though I knew he was scared."

"Isamu? Scared?" Raven found that hard to believe, but then again, he was a kid back then so it shouldn't have been that hard. "I guess I've known him for this long that I don't see him as the type to be afraid of anything."

Hikari chuckled a little as she nods in response. "Same here, but I guess it tends to happen when you train constantly and fight to protect innocent people. Heard that's how you two met."

Raven moves her hood up over her head as she tried to hide her blushing. "Y-yeah. That's how we met and glad he was there to help out. That's why I owe him a lot."

It was then Hikari decided to tease the girl a little as she leans in close to her ear. "So much so you want to kiss him?"

Raven's expression turned to one of shock as she accidentally used her magic to blow up the lightbulbs around the roof. "W-what?! What are you talking about?"

Hikari began giggling when she saw what happened. "I think you know what I am talking about. You like my brother and I know he likes you. Do you deny this?"

Raven was almost speechless with what this girl is saying and knew whatever she said might come out wrong. So, to avoid dealing with this…she phased through the floor and went back to her room to try meditating.

Hikari couldn't help but shake her head knowing this confirmed what she suspected. Even more so after what Starfire told her. Oh, her brother was in love and Raven likes him. But the question is can she meddle enough to get her to love him back?

It was then that Isamu returned as grabs the notepad. "Took care of the last five and made sure to do it without any property damage," he looks around and noticed Raven was gone. "Where did Raven go?"

"Oh, she went to her room to do a little meditating," Hikari replied lying to her brother so he won't know what she did. "Well, since the Hollows are all gone, want to go do a little patrolling? Not of Hollows, but perhaps of any criminals?"

Isamu knew they shouldn't since that is the job of the Titans, but then again it is a lot of fun fighting criminals who can't see them.

"Lead the way, little sister," said Isamu before his sister punched him in the arm. "What? I'm technically the oldest by a few minutes."

"Whatever," said Hikari as the two took off towards the city.

Meanwhile

"Freeze," said Robin as the video image of Slade stops.

After the return of Slade, Robin managed to get the surveillance video from the factory. They managed to recover some of the video, while the rest got destroyed. Cyborg tried to recover the footage, but it was too damage. So, for now this was all they had to find out more of what happened.

"Rewind," said Robin towards Beast Boy who is sitting nearby on the sofa.

"Dude, we've been looking at this thing all day," said Beast Boy who appeared exhausted. "I'm telling you, there's nothing else there."

Robin however was not convinced. He knows there is something here and they need to keep looking "There has to be. Play it again."

Beast Boy lets out a loud groan and does what Robin asked. "Slade Kicks Butt," take three hundred and four."

As he replays the tape Cyborg comes into the room.

"Anything?" Robin asked hoping to get some good news.

"I cross-matched that symbol with every database on the planet," Cyborg replied while reading from the paper he printed. "Nothing. Whatever it is, it's not from Earth."

"New powers? Cryptic threats? Targeting Raven?" Robin walks up to the screen wondering what is going on. "Slade's playing a whole new game now. And this symbol is the key. We will find out what it means."

"Dude, have you considered asking Isamu or his sister? Maybe they might know," Beast Boy suggested figuring they might help out. "I mean, didn't Isamu say Soul Reapers can live for a long time?"

Cyborg agrees with his friend's suggestion. "BB is right. Maybe they might be able to help us out by figuring out what this symbol is."

Robin let's out a frustrated sigh. "I already did. Isamu claims he doesn't know much about the symbol and hasn't heard back from the Soul Society about it. If they don't know about it then this symbol must be older than they are."

"Find that hard to believe since Isamu told us his master is over a thousand years old," said Cyborg as he crumbles up the paper and tosses it away. "Think Raven might know something?"

"Let's hope so," said Robin as he goes to check on her to see how she is doing.

Raven's room

Raven returned to her room as she intended to read up more books of how to stop her father. She knew Isamu promised he will help her, but she doubts even he will be enough to help stop the prophecy. She's just glad that she managed to get some sleep. Thanks to Isamu's dreamcatcher she has been able to get through the night without her father getting in her head.

Still, it doesn't mean he hasn't try bothering her while she tries meditating. She looks around her books as she tries to find a way out of being the portal.

"It's my destiny. There has to be a way to change it. I know there is!" she continues flipping through the pages hoping to find a clue. "I just need a little help finding it."

She knew Isamu was right and needed to tell her friends soon about it. However, she needed to wait. Wait for the right time to do this and help stop her father. She stops when she turned the page and saw the symbol of her father.

"No," she said as she hears someone knocking on her door.

"Raven, it's me. Can we talk?" Raven could hear it was Robin calling for her.

Raven uses her magic to grab put the book away before going to open the door.

"Yes, Robin?" she asked.

"Uh…any luck finding the symbol?" Robin asked hoping Raven got something for them.

Raven shook her head and lied to her friend. "No, it's not in any of my books."

Robin noticed she seems nervous. "Are you okay, Raven? You look a little…well…paler."

"It's nothing. I just haven't been able to meditate lately. That's all," Raven lied again, not wanting her friend to find out the truth.

"Okay, well have you seen Isamu and Hikari?" Robin asked wondering where the twins are at.

"They are out fighting some Hollows," said Raven unsure if they are still here or not.

"Look, I know Slade scared you," said Robin as he tries to help his friend. "But we'll find out why he was after you."

"Slade doesn't concern me," said Raven knowing there is someone else they should be concerned with. "Anyways, I'm going to try meditating a little longer. Do you mind?"

"Sure, if you need anything though…" the alarm begins going off as Robin takes out his communicator. He narrows his eyes when he sees who it is. "Slade, let's go!"

"I'll catch up," Raven replied as she goes to her room to take out the phone Isamu gave her.

She planned to call him to see if he can help her out. However, she stopped when she realized she can't rely on him to help her out. She needs to confront Slade and stop him. Show him she is not scared of him, and she will stop her father from coming to this world.

Still, didn't mean she didn't keep the phone with her. She puts it away and heads off to follow the others.

Meanwhile

Outside of the city there is a large district of large old buildings that became abandoned. The city has condemned these buildings and had planned to tear them down. To make room for more buildings to be built over them. Businesses, markets, and even apartments for people to live in.

In the city though, Slade is seen destroying some of these buildings with his fire power. Fire emerged on the street as Slade appeared. Walking through the flames unscathed. He looks around seeing the destruction he is causing, which all serve a purpose.

"I do love my job," he said as he summons flames from his hands and goes to fire them when Cyborg blasts his right hand.

"Vandalism? I'd say you hit an all new-low, Slade," said Robin as he stood by with the other Titans.

"The Teen Titans. Nice of you to drop by, but as you can see, I'm right in the middle of something," said Slade motioning to the destroyed buildings nearby. "I'll deal with you in a few minutes.

"No, we'll deal with you now," said Robin as the others got ready to fight.

"You can't always have what you want," said Slade as he used the flames behind him to fire a fire blast on the ground as it heads to the Titans.

The Titans regrouped and saw Slade has disappeared. "Titans! Split up and take him down!" said Robin as they head off to stop Slade.

Slade is seen jumping building to building gaining some distance from the Titans. Even causing some rubble to fall to the ground as one almost hit Cyborg.

Cyborg managed to avoid being crushed and looks on confused with what Slade is doing. "Doesn't Slade know this whole block is already slated for demolition?"

Beast Boy turns back to normal and lands next to his friend. "Since when did Slade need an excuse to wreck stuff?" He turns into a dog and chases after him.

Slade lands on a nearby building and begins firing fire blasts to the street before leaping off the building. He lands on the ground when Robin leaps in and kicks him into some barrels.

"Why did you come back?" Robin asked as he kept his guard up. "Where did you get these powers?

"You want to know what this is, don't you?" Slade points to his forehead as he begins walking towards Robin with his feet flaring up and melts the ground. "How many sleepless nights have you had, trying to uncover its secret? Well, let me put your mind at ease. It's called the Mark of Scath. And it's about to become very popular."

"What are you planning?" Robin asked wondering what his foe is going to do.

"I'm not planning anything. I'm simply providing a valuable public service," Slade begins forming the marking in the air and creates a fireball. "Illumination."

Slade fires it at Robin who jumps out of the way as the fireball hits the wall. The force of the blast though sends Robin to the ground as Slade is about to take him out. He is then blasted by Starfire who comes to her friend's aid. She shoots at Slade who uses his speed to dodge the attack and jump on a crate destroying the wrecking ball hits Starfire.

Slade lands on another building where Beast Boy is waiting for him. He flies around Slade as a flying squirrel distracting him giving Cyborg an opening.

"Fire in the hole!" Cyborg fires a sonic blast hitting Slade's feet and knocking him to the ground.

Slade gets up though and fires a fire ball at Cyborg who ducks. The attack though hits the building behind him, and it begins to fall apart as it falls on Cyborg.

Beast Boy flies in while Slade runs off. Beast Boy turns into a dinosaur with Cyborg on his back.

"Yeah, you better run!" Cyborg shouted while Beast Boy lets out a roar.

As Slade arrives to an old library he is confronted by Raven. "What do you want?"

"Only what any messenger wants, Raven," Slade explained. "For the message to be heard. It's time your friends learned the truth. And if you don't tell them, I will."

"Leave them out of this," said Raven who wasn't ready to have her friends know the truth.

"I didn't bring them into this. You did," said Slade pointing at Raven. "The day you came into their lives. Tick tock, Raven. Time is running out."

Slade soon disappeared as the fire continues to engulf the area.

Raven then hears Robin's voice through her communicator. "Titans! Do you read me?"

Soon Cyborg's voice can be heard next. "I read you, but I don't see you!"

Then they hear Starfire, who sounds concern. "I see you all and something else."

Raven flies up to see what her friend is looking at. To her shock it is the symbol of her father, except engulfing most of the city. She wonders why her father would send Slade here. Unless there is something here that he wants Slade to find.

If so, what is it?

"Titans! We need to put the fire out!" said Robin knowing if they don't stop the flames it might spread.

Raven snapped out of her thought and goes to help the others. Unaware that over the city something began to form over the city. Long dark line is seen appearing in the sky. Soon it begins opening revealing it to be some sort of dark gateway.

Inside multiple glowing red eyes can be seen appear from the darkness. Soon loud howls can be heard as they echo around the city.

Uh oh looks like something bad is about to happen. The Titans not only have to deal with Slade, but it appears something else. What could it be? Will Isamu and Hikari get involved to help out?

What will happen when they do? Will the Titans find out the truth about Raven? Will they still be able to stop Slade? Or will things end badly for them?

Well, check out the next chapter to find out and please keep up to date on the net neutrality please. Keep on fighting so we don't lose it. Otherwise I would hate to see where my stories will go if it gets taken down. So, let's keep on fighting guys please.
