This is another new story. If you've read my one-shot called Repeat, it is something like that. This has been in my head for some time and I thought I should write it. Well, enjoy my darkness.

The mission was a success, which was rare for the team. They had got the Intel and took down the bad guys without so much as a scratch. Wally had even gotten himself a souvenir, some type of tech that was in a crate with some pieces of scrap metal. It was an octagonal box that had crystals on the top and sides.

"You shouldn't have taken that Wally. We don't know what it does." Artemis said to the speedster.

"It doesn't DO anything Artemis. It was in the scrap heap." Wally retorted. He didn't like it when she told him what to do.

"You never know. It could be some weapon that vaporized the user." She said back.

Wally just rolled his eyes. "Come on, you're as paranoid as Batman."

Robin looked back at him with a glare. Wally caught it. "Oh, you know it's true." He said. Robin rolled his eyes and went back to his computer.

"We are here." Megan said as they approached the Mountain. She set the ship down and lowered the ramp. Team exited the bioship, except for Robin.

Wally turned around. "Yo, dude, you coming?"

He heard Robin call back. "Yeah, I'll be out in a sec."

Wally shrugged and moved toward the rest of the team. Batman, Superman, and Black Canary stood in front of the teens. Batman's eyes narrowed, "Report."

Aqualad stepped forward. "The mission was a success. Robin retrieved the information and we were not discovered."

"Which is a first." Superboy mumbled as he crossed his arms.

"Good, we need-" Batman started but he was interrupted by a humming.

The souvenir was humming and glowing. Wally stared down at it, surprised. The team started to back away. "Wally, what the heck did you do?!" Artemis yelled over the noise.

"I didn't do anything!" Wally cried. The humming got loader and the glowing got brighter. Soon everyone was covering their ears.

"Wally, put it-" Batman was drown out by and deafening crack and they all disappeared in a flash of light.

A figure stood on the edge of a building, arguing with himself why he should or shouldn't just jump and end all of this pain. He needs you. You're all he has left.

He is just going to leave you and you'll be alone all over again.

He's your father

No he isn't, he never was and he never will be.

You'll just be doing the very thing to him that you're afraid that he'll do.

He grabbed his head. "Stop," he whispered to the voices in his head. He needed something, anything, some stupid sign to show him which way to go.

There was a suddenly a load crack and a flash of light behind him. He whirled around and froze in his tracks. In front of him was a sight he never thought he'd seen again. His old team, with Superman, Black Canary, and…. The breath stuck in his throat. "Batman," He whispered.

Wally groaned and sat up, "Ug, any one get the license plate of that truck."

"Get your foot out of my face." Artemis growled.

"Sorry." Wally said as he stood. He rubbed his head and looked around. "Where are we?"

"Gotham," said a voice behind him. Everyone turned toward the voice falling into fighting stances. "Hell on Earth."

"Who are you?" Batman asked tightening his grip on the three bataranges in his hand.

"You mean you don't know? Oh how the great have fallen," mocked the figure that they could barely make out in the dark. Batman narrowed his eyes. They heard the figure sigh and he stepped out into the light. There were a few gasps and Batman's eyes widened. The boy in front of them was different than we the saw him twenty minutes ago. His hair was a little longer and shaggier. He wore a different outfit that was black. A silver bird stood out against his chest. It wings reached up to where the silver cape was attached, like it was part of the dark bird. He had on black gloves and boots. He wore a silver utility belt around his slender waist. A silver domino mask covered the amazing blue eyes the Batman knew was behind it.

"Robin?" Miss Martian asked cutting through the silence.

The boy grimaced. "I don't go by that name any more."

"Then what do you go by?" Superman asked.

The teen lifted his head and stared Batman in the eye, "Raven."

Alrighty then, this story is going to replace A regular Bourne Identity until I can figure something out for it, k? I know that Raven is already taken but I needed a darker name and crow was not going to cut it, nor was vulture. So he's Raven. REVIEW!
