Planning the Attack

Raven arrived back at the hotel to see Roy already there.

"You heard everything?" she asked.

Roy nodded. "Are you okay?"

"As good as can be. Let's call Nightwing and tell him what we found out," replied Raven.

The next two hours were spent discussing the information and planning coordinated attacks with members of the Titans and the Justice League.

In the end, the Justice League members were to destroy the laser facility in Japan, while the Titans East(minus Roy/Arsenal), plus all the honorary Titans would attack the laser in Canada. That would leave the Titans of Jump City including Raven and Arsenal to tackle the laser operation in Italy. The battles would be simultaneous and would commence at 7 am European time. The Titans were to use the Justice League's boom tubes to transport themselves to the fighting coordinates so transportation time would not be a factor.

Raven and Roy prepared for an early night as they had to be prepared for tomorrow morning's attack in Italy. Raven was to transport them by portal to the location.

Roy learned over on his left side facing Raven as she settled under the duvet.

"Rae," he started, "thanks for defending me during your dinner with Jason. It means a lot and I hope you see that the person I am today has evolved from the wild partying teenager."

"We have all changed since we first become Titans. I have become more mature in how I react with others and I definitely have more self-confidence. Every Titan has changed. I am not sure how much longer we will be together. Nightwing is seriously planning his exit but he hasn't told me where. Victor is considering moving to the Justice League. Kori has many options available for her. Garfield wants to travel a bit and try new things," said Raven thoughtfully.

"What do you want Rae?" asked Roy with a serious look.

"I am not sure. I have no home in Azerath, earth is pretty much my home now. And I consider the Titans as my family. I haven't made any plans but I think I will have to soon since others are doing the same," said Raven quietly.

"Rae, you know I love you. I hope when you make plans it will include me. Since I knew I was in love with you, whenever I think of my future, I think of you," said Roy as he stared into Raven's eyes and gently stroked her cheek.

Roy leaned down and kissed her lips tenderly. It was a sweet kiss that conveyed the love that Roy had. Raven responded with equal tenderness and they fell asleep in each other's arms.
