~Krystalyn's POV~

The trek up to Canada was a long one; once we found a trail belonging to some of Jeremy's people and had to cover up our tracks, before backtracking and finding a new route, and by then, a lot of time had already passed.

It seems like when I was on my own, I was always on edge, and always being extremely careful; but now that I had my two siblings, I felt more at ease, and didn't feel the need to be so cautious.

The Titans - and by Titans, I mean Cyborg - called once about half an hour ago, to check in, but other than that, it had been a silent run.

It felt like old times, when we didn't have a care in the world. It was nice to just be in the presence of two of the most important people in my life. Even though we had a lot to catch up on, we knew it could wait. Right now, we were just enjoying each others company, and the wind slapping our cheeks.

But Claire's eyebrows were furrowed, and she had that all too familiar look in her eyes, when she was stressing about something. Damien had a slightly hard look on his face, and he kept his eyes forward.

We all knew what was to come, but we didn't know how it would turn out.

~~~~~~~~~~

"Cyborg, stop the car, and walk from here," I said over the phone, glancing down the road as the T-Car turned a corner and came into view.

"You want me to leave my car in the middle of nowhere?" he asked, disbelieving.

I rolled my eyes as he rolled to a stop in front of me. I promptly hit the 'end' button on the communicator, and the Titans filed out. "It's not the middle of nowhere," I told them, and turned. "This is the path to the clearing where we're meeting Seth." I pointed to a small, winding deer trail going up a forested hill.

"How far does the path go?" Starfire asked, clasping her hands together.

"Not far," I decided, tilting my head. "Maybe half a mile or so."

"Half a mile?" Beastboy groaned. "That'll take forever!"

Raven rolled her eyes, and after a quick spark of dark energy, the green elf yelped, and jumped into the air. He glared, before turning into a deer, and bounding up the hill.

We all stared after him for a bit, before Damien sighed, and turned to Claire. "I'll race you to the top," he challenged, and they both got a flicker of evil in their eyes, before dashing up the hill in a blur of blue and grey.

"They won't get far," I murmured, watching them until they were out of sight. "Seth will have people on duty, and they'll get stopped."

"So, more vampires?" Cyborg asked.

"And the the wolves of were?" Starfire added, her hands still clasped, and her head tilted, with her bright green eyes never once leaving the greenery.

I chuckled, and started walking. "Yep. Possibly some hunters, and definitely a witch or two. Seth has a way of... charming, we'll call it."

Robins jaw clenched, and he matched his stride with mine. The path wound up the hill, and a few branches stuck out in front of us that we had to duck under. Raven, however, just used telekinesis to move the branches out of her way, only for them to slam back into Cyborg a moment later.

Eventually, we met up with Beastboy, who was now a bird, and perched upon a tree. "Took you slowpokes long enough," Beastboy grinned, now back to his normal self. "Claire and Damien almost threw me down the hill five minutes ago."

I chuckled. "Sounds like them."

We walked in silence for a bit, and occasionally, Robin and I's hands would brush against each other, only for us to quickly jump apart, and I would blush.

I could hear Cyborg and Beastboy snickering behind us, but I ignored them, keeping my eyes forward.

I suddenly froze, and put my arm out to stop Robin from going any further.

"What?" he asked, pulling out his staff, and spinning it around.

"There's someone close by," I whispered.

As soon as the words left my lips, an arrow whizzed by my head, missing me by mere inches. We all jumped back, but I quickly recovered, and dislodged the arrow from a tree.

"A hunter's," I observed, noting the engraving on the arrowhead. "Seth is close by."

"I thought he was a friend of yours?" Robin asked, raising an eyebrow.

"He is," I assured, but with a glance at the arrow in my hand, I shrugged. "Sort of."

"If he's your friend, why is he shooting arrows at your head?" Beastboy growled out, waving his arms around.

"I said sort of," I reminded, and snapped the arrow in half. "Alright hunter, whoever you are, come out!" I looked around the bushes, searching for any rustling or the sound of a heartbeat.

Silence.

I growled, and with force, sent the arrow spiralling towards the direction it originally came from.

"Oi!" a voice called. "Watch it!" It was Damien.

"Damien?" I called, pushing back leaves. "What are you doing there?"

"He's with you?" an American accent asked, and Seth came out of the brush. His black hair was shaggy, and nearly covered his icy blue eyes. A smirk claimed his face, and his arms were crossed. "I thought he was with the Fangs."

"He's my brother," I told him, before giving him a bright smile, and skipping over to give him a tight squeeze. He was taller than me by three inches, and I could feel his chest rumble as he laughed.

"I thought he looked familuar," he teased, pulling back. "And the other one? The little girl?"

"My sister," I said, taking a step back.

"Of course," he sighed, and with a wave of his fingers, Claire and Damien were pushed out of the bushes by two hunters. "When these two came dashing up the hill, I did the first thing that came to mind."

"Kidnap them?" I scoffed, and accepted the hugs from the sweet Austrailan witch, Katarina, that came bounding down the path. She was a little blonde, pixie looking thing, with wide, green eyes. Her skin was slightly tanned, from all the camping she does.

"Your friends are rude," Claire huffed, rubbing her wrist, and sticking her tongue out at Seth.

I smiled, my arm linked with Katarina. "Seth, Katarina, this my brother, Damien, my sister Claire, and my friends Robin, Starfire, Beastboy, Raven, and Cyborg. Guys, this is Seth, the leader of Venatium, and Katarina, the most powerful witch I know."

"And who are these blokes?" Damien asked, jabbing his thumb at the hunters.

"Meet John, and Jason," Seth introduced, pointing to each in turn. "They're twins, and the best Hunters I got." John and Jason had dark, close cropped hair, and piercing grey eyes. The only way I could tell the difference, was the Jason had a small scar on his chin, and John seemed to have a somewhat nicer look. Seth then turned to me, his eyes flicking over to the Titans. "So, Krystalyn. Which one is the boyfriend?"

I froze for a milisecond, before grabbing Robins hand, and pulling him closer. "Robin is," I said quickly, and ignored the smirks behind us. Luckily, Robin kept his cool, and held his hand out for Seth to shake.

"A human boy?" Seth asked, tilting his head. "That's something I didn't expect."

I laughed nervously, and flipped my hair behind my shoulder. "You should know by now, I'm full of surprises."

Katarina giggled, and pulled my arm. "We have camp set up at the top of the hill. I'll give you a tour."

I smiled, and motioned to my friends and family to follow. Claire and Damien gave begrudging looks, before huffing, and trailing along behind the Titans.

Maybe next time, they won't let their childish antics get the best of them.
