The sun rose up over Jump City, bathing the large city in a beautiful orange glow. The cities citizens either woke up and got ready for their day, or continued to sleep and rest for the day ahead. But for one person, the ray of sunshine that appeared from the window and onto her forced her to groggily open her violet eyes and glare at the interfering light.

The Teen Titan member known as Raven sighed as the light refused to leave. Lifting herself up a little, she raised her hand and encased the curtains in her magic before shutting them fully. Closing her eyes once the annoying task was done, Raven let her head hit the pillow before turning over, allowing her short purple hair to splay about.

Only once she got comfortable again, did she open her eyes and furrow her brow in thought. Almost everything she owned was dark in colour. Blue, black, purple, these were the colours that she loved and had in her room, all in a particular colour scheme. So why were the curtains black when her's were purple? These were the thoughts that crossed her mind as she slowly sat up fully and looked at the window. Using her magic again, she opened the curtain's and widened her eyes at what she saw.

It was the Titan's Tower, her home, standing proudly on the small island across from Jump City. Now, seeing that she wasn't in her home, Raven slowly looked around the room she was in. It was plain if she was honest. White walls, no pictures, and the door to the room she was in was open, showing another room with a dark couch just in her view. The bed she was in had a dark wood frame and the sheets were a cream colour. Out of the corner of her eye, Raven noticed something that made her freeze in shock. Her clothes were scattered on the floor with another set of clothing in a similar position. Seeing her clothes, Raven immediately checked and realised that she was naked under the covers.

Trying to take deep breaths to calm herself, Raven turned her head when she managed to connect the dots. Laying next to her, and still thankfully asleep, Raven saw a man she had never seen before in her life. Holding the sheets close to her body, Raven began to hyperventilate in panic as she started to understand the situation she was in. Still trying to catch her breath, she got out of the bed and took a shaky step on the floor.

She quickly got dressed, trying to be as quiet as she could. But just as she managed to put on her cloak, which slightly helped her feel better, she heard the man behind her move. Turning around, Raven watched as he sat up and stretched with a yawn, with the sheet thankfully still covering his lower half. While she oddly watched the stranger wake up, she couldn't help but notice the large scar on the left side of his chest. She blinked as he looked around before finally looking at her in the eyes. They stared, violet eyes meeting deep blue.

They were both silent for the longest moment that Raven ever knew. She was quiet because she didn't know what to do. She desperately wanted to teleport away but just couldn't for some reason. It was obvious the man was trying to figure out what to say as well before he finally sighed. "Would you like a tea or coffee? It will probably help." Not knowing what else to do, Raven just nodded slightly. "If you wait in the next room, I'll be out in a minute."

Without another word, Raven quickly left the room and shut the door behind her. Now alone, she took that moment to calm herself and took a deep breath. She could hear some shuffling behind the door but walked away and deeper into the room. Like the bedroom, the apartment she was in was plain as well. The walls had no pictures or frames and, while the apartment was quite large and spacious, there was only a large couch and a TV in the room with a coffee table in between. Behind her was the kitchen, which had the usual utensil's.

Sitting down on the couch, Raven tried to remember everything that happened the night before but struggled for some reason.

-Flashback, The Morning Before-

Raven was incredibly annoyed at the moment. It has been a full week of non-stop battling with random villains that just appear from nowhere. Each day a bad guy would show up and attack, only for her and her team to beat them again. It was a routine that was getting boring fast. Thankfully, today seemed to be a day where they would be able to catch a little break.

Another reason she was annoyed was that her team were doing everything possible to agitate her, even if they didn't know it. Robin kept pestering everyone to train and be on the lookout for threats, even if there weren't any. Starfire would bug her about having a 'Girl's Day Out', which the thought of made her shiver, Cyborg would constantly ask her to play games whenever she reads a book, and Beastboy annoys her by making jokes after jokes.

In all honesty, she knew they were just being their usual selves. It was herself that was the issue. For some reason, she's been on edge lately. Even the slightest thing has been setting her off without any reason. Meditating did doing nothing for her, which was unusual considering they usually helped keep her emotions in check. Right now, she was trying to read another book but couldn't concentrate. Sighing in annoyance, she stood up and left her bedroom, going straight to the Main Ops Room for a refreshment.

Seeing all of her friends in the kitchen, she walked over to the kettle without saying a word before pouring herself some tea, hoping it will help her relax. She heard Robin speak from where he sat at the table, "Hey, Raven! Want breakfast?"

She didn't answer as she heard someone walk up to her from behind. "It's good!" she heard Beastboy say, "Wakey, wakey, tofu-eggs and bakey!" the green changling sang.

"Herbal tea," Raven replied, hoping they would take the hint and leave her alone.

"Come on," Beastboy insisted, "Just one little taste! It will help you lighten up, cause, y'know, you're usually moody."

Suddenly snapping around, Raven glared at her friend as her eyes glowed red. "NO!" she screamed at him, subconsciously using her powers to make the pile of tofu-eggs that Beastboy was holding to explode. Everyone stayed quiet in shock, just staring at Raven who held her tea and quickly left the room without another word.

-Flashback End-

Raven was suddenly broken from her thoughts by the sound of a door opening. She glanced in the bedroom's direction, seeing the stranger close the door. Now that the shock of the events was mostly over with, Raven took a second to take in the strangers appearance. She had to admit that the man was handsome, with blond spiky hair, deep blue eyes, slightly tanned skin, and oddly enough, three whisker marks on each cheek. He wore a black shirt that hugged his body, showing off his physique, and a regular pair of jeans.

"Tea or coffee?" he asked, walking over to his kitchen.

The man's voice slightly startled Raven. "Uh, tea, please," she answered.

The man nodded before preparing her drink and a drink for himself, which she saw was black coffee. It only took a couple of minutes, which were quite awkward, before he finally sat down on the couch on the opposite side of her. She noted that he was keeping a little distance, but she didn't know if it was to make her feel easier or for himself to feel easier.

Neither knew what to say to the other, and for good reason. The man sighed once again before finally speaking, "Look, I'm going to be honest with you. I don't remember what happened last night."

Raven stared in shock, surprised by this. "You don't... remember?" she asked in questioning tone.

The man shook his head. "All I remember was being here and pouring myself a drink... and then that's it. I can't remember anything else. It's like my memory just stops there."

"I don't remember anything... either," Raven said, "I don't even know your name." At this, the girl looked away as if she was ashamed that she didn't know the name of the person she spent her night with.

"... My name is Naruto Uzumaki," the man said after a few seconds with a gentle smile. "And you're Raven of the Teen Titan's, obviously," he said, nodding towards his TV, to which Raven nodded, understanding how he knew of her. "You can't remember last night either? That's weird."

Sipping her tea, which Raven actually liked, she thought, 'My powers were acting up yesterday, could they be the cause? This has never happened before, though.' Thinking about her powers, Raven closed her eyes and concentrated, 'They're not as out of control as yesterday, at least no more than usual. Odd,' she thought.

"Listen," said Naruto, getting Raven's attention again, "Because neither of us can remember, I can understand if you don't want to talk about it. I mean, you're a hero and I doubt you do this regularly."

"I don't," she answered in a stern manner, as if scolding herself, "And I can agree with what you said, about not wanting to talk about what happened. It was a one-time thing, so we don't ever have to talk about it."

"Right," Naruto replied. "And you don't have to worry about me talking to the news or friends about this, I'll keep this a secret."

Raven smiled at that, feeling thankful that the media wasn't going to know about this. She and her team were alway's bombarded and stalked by reporters and they all hated it. She was afraid to think how they would act if they knew what just happened. She didn't even want her friends to find out about this. Just the thought of their reactions scared her.

Another thought crossed her mind and it terrified her to no end. She almost snapped her head to Naruto, who just raised an eyebrow at her actions before realising himself. "Are you wondering if we used protection?" he asked, getting a hesitant nod in response. "Don't worry, I found a couple of condom wrappers in my bin."

Hearing this, Raven unknowingly released a breath she didn't even know she was holding. But just as she relaxed, her communicator suddenly went off, making the girl jump in fright. Taking the device from her belt, she opened it up whilst standing and walking off to the side. "H-Hello?" she said to whoever it was. Naruto watched as she paced back and forth with a hand on her forehead and her eyes closed, looking more annoyed by the second. The entire phone call only took a minute at most before she finally sighed, saying, "Alright, I'll be there as soon as I can."

"Got to go?" asked Naruto, seeing Raven hang up.

"Yeah, Cinderblock is going on another rampage again," Raven replied, shaking her head.

Standing up, Naruto walked her to his door and opened it, letting the purple haired Titan out. "I know this was something that you didn't want, and it must be hard to not remember anything, but if you ever just want to talk-" Before he could even finish his offer, Raven used her magic and disappeared into the floor, with her back to him. "-You know where I live," he finished, speaking to himself. He sighed, feeling guilty, as though this was somehow his fault.

Closing the door, Naruto walked back into his apartment and glanced around with sad eyes. Slowly walking back to his bedroom, he knelt next to his bed and pulled out a small box from under the frame. Opening the lid of the box, he looked inside and stared at the metal plate that was attached to a long black fabric. "And here I hoped that I could put my past behind me," he whispered to himself, staring at the symbol of a leaf.

It was now close to midnight and Raven was now in her bedroom, sitting on the edge of her bed. She was rubbing her temples in annoyance at what happened today. After talking to Naruto, whose name made her twitch a little, she arrived to see Cinderblock throwing Beastboy around who was in the form of a rhino. It was just her luck that Beastboy was thrown in her direction. Thankfully, Beastboy turned back to normal at the last second before he slammed into her.

After that, anything she would throw at the hulking monster would just bounce off of him without leaving a scratch. Robin would mostly throw exploding disks but they were ineffective and so was his bo-staff, which he constantly used. Beastboy was only able to halt Cinderblock's movements when he was a large enough animal, but eventually Cinderblock would manage to overpower and throw him away. Only Starfire could match his strength and with Cyborg's Sonic Cannon, they managed to knock the behemoth unconscious.

Right now though, as she tries to meditate and take her mind off of everything that happened, she couldn't help but think about this morning. She felt terrible, just leaving like she did and especially after Naruto was trying to be nice to her and help her. It was all too much though, not remembering the day before, waking up next to a stranger, and trying to make sense of it all was overwhelming.

"I still don't understand why I can't remember," she said to herself with a sigh. Getting an idea, she stood up and walked over to the middle of her room. Taking a deep breath, she began to float on the spot before sitting crossed legged in the air, chanting, "Azarath Metrion Zinthos, Azarath Metrion Zinthos, Azarath Metrion Zinthos."

Opening her eyes, Raven's violet's eyes turned white as she fell into a trance.

The next thing Raven knew, she was now in her own mind. Looking around the familiar ominous realm, she could easily sense her emotional clones. She didn't really like talking to them as they just remind her of how she was not allowed to feel. If she felt any emotion then she would lose control of her powers.

The sound of wings flapping caught Raven's attention. Glancing to her left, she easily spotted a tree, planted on a floating rock as a dozen crows stood on the branches. They alway's watched her with their four red eyes. They made her uncomfortable, reminding her too much of her father. She also knew that they all came from Anger and she hoped she won't have to visit that emotion.

"Rae-Rae!" shouted Raven's voice from behind, making the original girl frown.

Turning around with a sigh, Raven easily spotted a clone of herself running up to her with a grin. The only noticeable difference between them being the colour of their cloaks as the clone is wearing pink and hers was dark blue. She grunted when the emotion ran up to her and gave her a bear hug. "Happy," Raven said in a strained voice, "You don't usually wonder here," Raven said, knowing that this emotion prefers to stay with her happier thoughts.

Happy just shrugged as she let Raven go, not caring about the glare being sent her way. "I was bored, plus I was around the area when you arrived." Then Happy stopped and blinked before having a thoughtful look, "What are you doing here anyway?"

"I need to try and remember what happened last night," answered Raven. There was no point in lying or hesitating with her own emotions as they basically know everything she does. But sometimes it did help her thought process when she speaks to them. "Which is why I need to see Knowledge." Happy just made an 'O' face and nodded before giggling. As Raven began walking in the direction of Knowledges domain, she realised that Happy was travelling with her as the girl danced around, constantly. Whilst walking, Raven idly noticed that there were a few more crows watching her

Coming up to a large archway, Raven focused on Knowledge and walked through the portal that opened. Now, instead of a creepy scenery, Raven and Happy were now in a library of sorts. They looked to be in a building that was kept perfectly clean, with bookshelves lining the walls. The room they were in looked as though it can go on for miles.

"I expected you here sooner," said a voice from above. Floating down in front of the two Raven's was Knowledge, another emotion but with a yellow cloak. Another noticeable difference is that she also wore thick-framed glasses and had one or two books floating around her. She glanced at Raven from the books she was reading, "Passion is already here, waiting."

She walked away, ignoring Raven's confused look. "Why would Passion be here?" she muttered to herself before blushing. It was obvious and she forgot already.

Knowledge glanced at Raven before speaking, "I brought her here. Not only does she not remember last night, but she has also been acting odd."

Raven just raised an eyebrow at that, now even more confused. She and Happy followed Knowledge to another room, with a table and chairs in the middle. In one of the seats was Passion, wearing a purple cloak. What was odd was that she looked tired and yet... satisfied? 'Oh, that can't be good,' thought Raven with a blush.

"I'll be honest," started Knowledge once everyone sat down, or in Happy's case, stayed calm enough to listen, "I am not one hundred percent certain about what happened or how it happened. But I do have a few theories."

"Was it Trigon?" asked Raven, wondering if his influence managed to slip past her defences. While it was unlikely, it was a possibility.

"Either that or Passion took the reigns again," Knowledge sarcastically said, remembering the time that Passion rook control, went to Earth and flirted with a few guys. "The memory you are looking for is here," said the Yellow Raven as she held a book with last nights time and date on it, "Obviously I have not seen it otherwise you would already know."

Raven took the book from her emotions hands and held it, feeling scared and worried about what she will see. Taking a deep breath, she opened the book.

-Flashback, the Night Before-

To Raven, going out at night with her team was a common occurrence as this was when the villains usually try and steal things. They had gotten a call that someone had attacked an armoured truck from one of the local banks. The police were no match as the villain used his abilities to stop them. When she and her team arrived, she was genuinely surprised that it was a villain she had never seen before. It was rare but it does happen. This villain liked to call himself Doctor Light and, much to her utter annoyance liked to use puns about light. They were nearly as bad as Beastboy's jokes.

He stood on top of the overturned truck and spoke, "Your pathetic skills can't outshine the brilliance of Doctor Light!" His hands glowed as he fired a beam of light at her and the others, which they all dodged with ease. Robin was the first to act as he jumped, throwing a bird-a-rang as Doctor Light jumped away from the attack. "You're fast," he commented to the leader of the Titan's as he brought his hands to the lightbulb mechanism on his chest, "But I doubt you'll enjoy moving at the speed of light!"

Another light beam appeared, bigger and faster than the others and it quickly slammed into Robin. "Argh!" he shouted in pain, flying through the air.

Beastboy ran up behind Doctor Light, turning into a wolf. He snarled as he tried to bite down on the villain. "A wolf is no threat when it's blind as a bat!" Doctor Light shouted, taking a weapon from his belt. He threw multiple glowing orbs at Beastboy, which exploded into a bright light as they hit the ground. But because his eyesight was heightened as a wolf, Beastboy was blinded and disorientated.

Flying down, Starfire fired starbolt after starbolt, but they did nothing as Doctor Light created a barrier that stopped her attacks. Taking hold of an object behind his back, Light dropped his shield and threw the item which landed directly underneath Starfire. It activated, spinning around as a thin veil of light appeared, surrounding Starfire in a bubble that imprisoned her.

Seeing an opportunity, Cyborg ripped off a large piece of metal from the truck. "Watch yourself, Light-Weight!" shouted Cyborg, running up to the villain, "Things are about to get heavy!" He swung his weapon down, just missing Doctor Light as he fell away at the last second. In retaliation, Doctor Light quickly fired a beam of light that hit Cyborg in the chest, with the attack barely affecting him. Laughing, Light stood up and raised his hands, summoning another light attack. This one was slightly different as it glowed red and was a ball in shape. It flew at Cyborg before he could do anything and exploded, somehow encasing him in stone. "What?! Let me go!" he shouted as he struggled.

"Now, if nobody minds," said Doctor Light, walking up to the stuck form of Cyborg, "I'll be taking the gold."

"I mind," Raven said, getting the villain's attention. "Azarath Metrion Zinth- Ah!" She started, only to be hit by one of Doctor Light's attacks. She skidded across the ground, landing on her back quite hard.

"A little advice," said Light as he walked up to Raven, "Find shorter magic words," he taunted, seeing Raven use her magic and throw a motorbike at him. With ease, he blasted the vehicle to harmless pieces as the small bits of debris bounced off of him. With a smirk, he attacked Raven again and hit her with another beam of light.

She flew back and crashed to the ground, pain appearing all over. Something happened though. She was angry, she could feel Anger taking control. Trying to calm herself, she tried to warn the villain, "Don't come any closer."

"What's the matter?" laughed Doctor Light, "Afraid of the light?!" He was about to attack when Raven suddenly jumped at him, her eyes turning red. She flew into the air, her cloak somehow extending as black tendrils appeared from within. They flew at Doctor Light, who backed away in terror. "No!" he shouted in fright as the tendrils destroyed the suit as they grabbed him, "My suit!" He clawed at the ground as the tendrils dragged him towards Raven. "No! No! I surrender!" he begged but to no avail.

"What's the matter? Afraid of the DARK?!" Raven said, her voice changing to something demonic.

Doctor Light continued to scream and beg as he was dragged into Raven's cloak. Robin, seeing what was happening ran to his possessed friend, "Raven! Stop!" he shouted, hoping to get through to her. Raven gasped as she suddenly took control of herself, backing away and freeing Doctor Light. The man was curled up on the ground, his black suit somehow grey. His eyes were wide as his pupil's darted about, showing that he was afraid. "It's okay! You're going to be alright" said Robin, trying to console the villain.

Doctor Light rambled to himself, asking for the darkness to stop. Beastboy and Cyborg walked up to Raven, the Changeling asking, "Dude, Raven, what did you do?" Her control slipping, Raven turned and growled at her friend, who stepped back in fear. Knowing that she had to get away, Raven ran, hoping to keep her friends safe.

She didn't know where she was running to and she didn't care. She could feel Anger trying everything to take control and Raven was losing. "Azarath Metrion Zinthos," she chanted, hoping it would help. "Azarath Metrion Zinthos, Azarath Metrion Zinthos."

As she ran through an alley, she caught sight of a group of teenagers, spray painting a wall with images and words. Seeing them made Anger take control as Raven's eyes turned red once again. She grinned evilly, slowly stalking up to her prey. Once she was close enough though, she stopped. She could sense something close by. It was powerful, uncontrollable,... demonic. She knew what she had to do, she just knew.

She had to somehow make the source hers.

Leaving the group of teens who didn't even know she was there, Raven followed the energy to an apartment building. Flying up the wall as fast as she could, she found the apartment and used her magic to teleport inside. She was greeted by the sight of Naruto, sleeping on the couch. Grinning at the opportunity, she floated a little and hovered her way to him, licking her lips along the way.

Standing over him, she felt the energy he produced and felt her legs shake. It was intoxicating. Just as she was about to do something, Naruto's eyes snapped open. He jumped to his feet, surprising Raven as she floated back. His blue eyes stared into hers, confusion clear on his face. "What are you doing here?" he demanded to know before gripping his head. His eyes widened as they turned from blue to red, his form changing slightly.

His whisker marks deepened and his fangs grew. Raven could see his nails turn into claws as they lightly dug into his skull. His energy changed as well. Whatever he was doing before suppressed it but now she could sense it all, and it was overpowering. Naruto stopped struggling with himself, standing straight up. He looked at Raven and grinned, with her smirking back at him.

Before either of them knew what they were doing, they quickly closed the distance and began to make out.

-Flashback End-

Raven snapped the book shut at that point, already knowing where the rest of her memory was going. Her face was glowing red as steam practically appeared from her ears. Passion had a giddy smile, looking as though she was drunk on something. Knowledge has a blush of her own but she did mutter, "Interesting," every now and again. Happy just had a grin on her face, like she always did.

Taking a deep breath, Raven tried and failed to compose herself. "Right, I think I know what happened," she said, getting Knowledge's undivided attention, "Trigon's influence did cause that to happen but that influence was gone by the time I found Naruto. I think when I sensed his energy, Passion somehow took over and... that... happened."

"That does make sense," Knowledge said with a nod. "But what of this energy that Naruto had? It was definitely demonic in nature but we could tell he was human. That energy was independent and somehow a part of him."

"His energy somehow made me react the way I did?" asked Raven.

Looking at her original self with seriousness, Knowledge said, "I believe it would be best to go and speak with him at once."

Waking up in the real world, Raven sighed. She didn't want to go find Naruto and talk to him. She still felt terrible about what she did, especially after he was nice to her. But she needed answers. Biting her lip, she looked at the time and saw it was one in the morning. She had a choice. Either she could go in the morning, with her friends questioning her about what happened and where she was going. Or she could leave now and go see him, but he was probably asleep and possibly mad at her.

"Screw it," she muttered, teleporting away. Reappearing in an alley, Raven saw she was just next to Naruto's building. She was about to fly up but decided against it and walked inside. Remembering what number he lived in, she walked up to the door and raised her hand to knock, but stopped. She couldn't bring herself to knock, for some reason. Her heart was beating rapidly as her mind betrayed her and forced her to remember the previous night. Shaking her head, she took a deep breath and knocked.

Nothing happened so she knocked again. This time, she heard a few footsteps before the door opened. Looking up, she could see the surprise on Naruto's face as he saw her. "Oh, I didn't think I would see you again so soon," he said before muttering to himself, "Or ever, for that matter."

Choosing to ignore what he whispered, Raven looked down at the ground. "We, uh, need to talk," she said.

Naruto stared and smiled, "Come on in, I'll make you some tea."

"Thank you," accepted Raven, stepping inside. She walked over to the couch and sat down, listening as he went to the kitchen and turned on the kettle.

-Author's Note-

Please, do not expect constant updates.

I am mostly using this account to upload story ideas. So if I get an idea for a story, I might write a chapter about it and then upload it. If you liked a story, please do not expect an update as I might not continue it.

I usually have a bunch of ideas going through my head so I sometimes work different stories at different times.

This is a story I have had go through my head dozens of times. It took me a while to create this chapter as I wasn't even sure how to begin.

In Raven's flashbacks, she had breakfast and then later fought Doctor Light. I know it was the other way round in the show, I just thought that this would be easier.

If you have any questions, please PM me or leave them in a review, I will do my best to answer.
