Ever since Tekken 7 came out, I immediately took a liking to Master Raven. Can't believe it took Tekken this long to introduce the first African American female into the series. (No, Christie and the other Latin characters don't count)
I bring you this new story featuring her and Raven with plot centered material. Not sure if Tekken would do it, but I'd like to see these two together as romantic interests. (Not brother-sister, I would hate that) The setting takes place in New York.
I hope you enjoy this new tale! No money/profit is made from this story.
9:35 P.M:
"I need the ER prepared, pronto!"
"All hands on deck!"
"We have multiple bodies inbound! This guy's in grave condition!"
New York's Presbyterian Lower Manhattan Hospital was in a manic frenzy, nurses, doctors, and first responders scrambling to restore order. Said first responders burst through the entrance while pushing an occupied gurney, the lone occupant's injuries seemingly critical; blood seeping onto the sheets. Every single doctor shift could be heard shouting orders as the stretcher made its way towards the ER; several tools requested to be made available for this emergency procedure. With great care, members of the hospital staff and some police officers pulled the unconscious body onto the operating table before carefully sticking needles in each arm. The monitors flicked on to show the patient's vital signs with a middle-aged doctor charging up a defibrillator.
"Clear!" he yelled.
The head doctor places each paddle on the patient's motionless chest; a sudden jolt brought up the entire body before crashing back down on the table — no sign of movement, which prompted the doctor to try again until given a clear response.
Raven laid unmoving with no signs of life, and three bullet wounds near his heart.
Waiting Room:
Several of the United Nations' top soldiers huddled outside the double doors of the E.R riddled with soot, various spots torn in their combat gear while nursing multiple injuries from the melee that occurred a few short hours ago — an assortment of bandages on every single member. No one said a word, some still replaying the battle they barely escaped.
Sitting in a chair near the group with a catatonic stare was the leader of the United Nations' secret organization. A female with faded scars on her otherwise flawless face, a mixture of black and blonde strands of hair fixed into a ponytail with the rest shaved off at the back and sides. For clothes, the woman wore a revealing bodysuit outlining her gorgeous figure with pauldrons, gauntlets, a faceplate, greaves, and a low blue muffler - a ninja sword safely sheathed away on her back.
Master Raven slumps in her chair staring absently at the opposite wall, somewhat apprehensive underneath her standoffish demeanor. Her dark uniform ripped in several places, blood dripping from each wound as a crimson streak ran down her forehead along with suffering a mild concussion, separated left shoulder, and two cracked ribs. She's fortunate that's all she suffered after fighting against Nina Williams.
The Irish woman and her small group of soldiers were sent by Heihachi to find Jin Kazama's whereabouts after his failed attempt to rid himself of his corrupt Devil Gene. They weren't the only ones to obtain this knowledge as the Russian super soldier Dragonuv closely trailed the Zaibatsu's movement, leading them to converge at the same location to extract the tainted blood for their twisted purposes. Thus, the United Nations wasted little time sending their top two agents to intercept both factions. Nina happened to be near Master Raven's vicinity amidst the chaos and engaged her in combat. Each woman battled ferociously with one another, neither able to gain a decisive advantage; Raven himself caught in a deadly battle with Dragonuv as their respective battalions raged war.
A loud bang from the hospital's entrance startled the occupants as a group of men marched in. Nearly all the UN higher ups headed for the bedraggled group with a vividly upset middle-aged Caucasian man in his mid-forties at the forefront adorned in a dark business suit. The man known as Dwight Jones storms over to the soldiers who saluted their boss without a second thought.
"What happened out there?" Jones demanded. "One of our best agents is bleeding out on an operating table, and I want answers!"
One brave UN soldier steps forward. "Sir, we were caught in the crossfire with the Russian military and the Mishima-"
"I'm well aware of that!" Dwight blatantly cut him off. "It was supposed to be a simple surveillance mission!"
Master Raven shot out of her chair and got in Jones' face, angered that he berated her subordinates. "Don't shout at my men!" her voice held a firmness. "You want someone to yell at; it's me!"
Dwight immediately softens his hardened gaze at the retort. He shouldn't be surprised; Master Raven deeply cared for her troops and will do anything to make sure they were taken care of, even if it meant risking her neck.
"It's my fault this happened," the ebony woman admitted after regaining composure. "I refused to cease fighting Nina Williams when Raven and the others needed my assistance. Not making excuses but she was a difficult opponent. Then, Russia's errand boy and his men joined the fray. At that point, I finally retreated and helped out as best as I could." A small wince came out as Master Raven held her separated shoulder. "Although outnumbered, we were able to chase them off." She then tightly shut her eyes. "But... gunshots rang out. Raven saw what was about to happen and pushed me out of harm's way, exposing himself to enemy fire."
The hard gaze on Dwight's face disappeared altogether, gazing at his top agent in silence. Raven was fighting for his life, and Jones now understood why he did such a noble yet dangerous act.
After a thoughtful pause, Dwight turns his attention to the other soldiers. "All of you, go get treatment," he ordered.
None of the agents bothered putting up an argument and did what they were told, shuffling their way to the medical area. Master Raven was about to leave until Dwight stopped her with a raised hand. "I'd like to speak with you in private, agent," he softly added.
His request raised Master Raven's eyebrow, but she offered no protest, deeming it significant for a private meeting. She followed Dwight to the ER where the doctors were performing emergency surgery on Raven and couldn't muster the courage to even glance at the door in a rare show of emotion, her mouth trembling in angst as one of her subordinates was on his deathbed... Because of her.
Dwight heaved a sigh, placing a comforting hand on his agent's shoulder. "Tatyana..."
That name startled the ninja as she whirled around to face her boss who never used her real name at any point during her tenure.
"Don't blame yourself over what transpired," Dwight eyed her with a wary gaze. "I gave you this mission to find out info on Kazama, unaware I was leading you all into a death trap and failed to think about the consequences that could result from my brashness. Tonight's events fall on my head." His attention shifted toward the double doors as if he could see the half-dead body of Raven through them. "For now, all agents involved in this mission, yourself included, will be placed on medical leave for a few months. We'll monitor Raven's condition and alert you when we know something."
"But..." Master Raven wanted to argue against the decision.
"No buts, Tatyana." Jones insisted. "Go home and get some rest after you receive the proper medical care." He began making his way towards the exit, leaving a bewildered ninja behind.
Before the director reached the exit, Tatyana stops him with a question she may not like the answer that might follow. "Sir... if he doesn't make it, what do you plan to do with the rest of the agents?" It took every ounce of willpower not to let her voice waver.
Dwight put both hands in his pockets and turned back around to face Tatyana, an apologetic look on his face. "I may have no choice, but if Raven dies, the team will disband immediately. They've tied my hands." The words cut through Master Raven's soul like her sword would through even the strongest of metal. "I sincerely apologize, Tatyana."
That ended the conversation as Dwight retreated to his car, leaving Tatyana alone with no one around, thoughts running rampant through her mind.
'Why?' Master Raven ponders before reluctantly having her injuries tended to. 'Why would he throw himself into danger to save me?'
The impending silence served as her answer.
Manhattan, NY: 1:16 A.M.
Master Raven strode back to her apartment on the outskirts of Manhattan after changing her attire to some more comfortable clothes of fitting black jeans, flats, and a white long sleeve shirt; her mission uniform zipped away in a duffel bag, her sword latched on her back as usual. She took out a set of keys and unlocked the door. The loft was lavishly spacious and displayed a beautiful city view from one of New York's most top of the scale apartment complexes, an outdoor pool on the balcony. Its kitchen area was full of ordinary dishes and glasses stocked to the brim accompanied by a mini fridge containing the most potent liquor for 'one of those nights.' Master Raven typically wouldn't partake in drinking herself into a stupor no matter how bad her workday went.
Tonight would have to be an exception.
Tatyana hunched down to grab the most robust bottle of whiskey in the fridge, heaving a frustrated sigh as she dragged herself into the living room, flopping down on a brown cushioned chair in front of a 48-inch Plasma screen TV. She grabbed the remote sitting atop a glass table and pushed the power button before pouring herself a glass of liquor with her non-injured arm.
"In tonight's news, chaos roamed the streets in the Bronx as Russian soldiers, the Mishima Zaibatsu, and members of the United Nations' Special Forces collided in a deadly struggle. The battle lasted for nearly half an hour before authorities arrived at the scene, trying to quell the violence that's gripped the world for over two years," the news anchor commented.
Hearing the news reporting on tonight's bloodshed put the female ninja in a foul mood. Heck, just watching it annoyed her. Every word the anchor spoke went in and out of Tatyana's ears as she took a prolong sip, the aftertaste of whiskey burning the inside of her throat. For only a short period the liquor took her mind off the turmoil.
Try as she might, Master Raven couldn't bring herself to focus on anything else but that gruesome scene.
Six Hours ago:
Her partner for many years came out of nowhere, doing anything possible to ensure no harm came Tatyana's way even as the three-way stalemate played itself out. Raven shoved Master Raven out of the way, rendering himself defenseless as three bullets penetrated his pectoral muscle. Tatyana hastily picked herself up and stopped herself from screaming, catching her fallen teammate out of instinct, her eyes looking down to see Raven cough out blood. She ordered three men to carry him to the nearest hospital before jumping back into the fray. Master Raven then paled when a giant tank operated by the Zaibatsu fired a deadly missile, the detonation nearly obliterating two city blocks. None of her subordinates perished in the blast after ordering them to retreat, much to her amazement and relief. Only soldiers from the Zaibatsu and Russian army died in the crossfire. When the flames somewhat dissipated, Master Raven, Nina, and Dragonuv opposed each other with steely gazes; the stare down lasting briefly as Dragonuv slowly disappeared in the smoke screen with his mercenaries, leaving the two women alone.
Nina turned to Master Raven and analyzed her. "You gave me a run for my money. We'll have to do this again sometime." The blonde assassin then displayed a fake smile. "Sorry about your boyfriend."
It took all of Tatyana's God-given restraint not to slit Nina's throat, but Raven and the others were her top priority. Displaying a nasty glare, Master Raven teleported from the scene and arrived near the hospital. The first thing the ebony woman saw upon entering was Raven's near lifeless body lying in a small puddle of blood, an assortment of bandages all over his chest to stop the bleeding.
Though she couldn't feel it, tears slowly slid down Master Raven's face.
Present:
Tatyana cursed to herself before draining the entire liquor bottle, not even bothering to use her glass. She leaned forward and covered her face with both hands, two fingers rubbing against her temples in aggravation. Even now, Master Raven couldn't understand why her top subordinate undertook such a reckless act to save her life rather than fighting off the bogeys on sight. Raven was unquestionably loyal like herself, a benefit and detriment depending on how a bystander's view. He completed any daring mission placed upon him without complaint and rarely made mistakes. Seeing him disregard his health and welfare went against everything Master Raven thought about her mostly silent subordinate.
However, that was the mystifying factor lost in all this.
Master Raven was more than capable of defending herself, hence why she was named the leader of their group of agents. Raven could've easily continued onward while she recommenced her brutal fight against Nina. Moreover, Tatyana knew if attaining mission objectives meant leaving his comrades on their own, Raven wouldn't hesitate to do so. If anyone failed the given task, it was his or her responsibility, not Raven's.
That alone stumped the female ninja added with the alcohol streaming through her system. 'Out of all the times to not follow his strict beliefs, why did Raven sacrifice himself? Was I not aware?'
No simple answer explained Raven's actions. If he perished, Master Raven would never determine why he shielded her from certain death; only the knowledge of his heroic act imprinted in her mind, a prospect she didn't want to fathom. Master Raven wanted to sober up and drive towards the hospital to demand a straightforward answer in spite of her injured condition. Two things stopped her from doing so. The liquor she greedily consumed and the fact Raven wouldn't be in any shape to communicate while fighting for his life.
Reluctantly, Tatyana stumbled upstairs into her bedroom before crashing onto a king-sized bed, the stress of tonight's mission and that whiskey preventing her from even changing into her night attire. She surrendered to the building stress, anxiety, and a new emotion she's never comprehended as her eyes belatedly succumbed to darkness.
Heartbreak.
Two Days later:
Morning couldn't arrive soon enough as the dawn of a new day graced through half-closed curtains. New York's skyline at either sunrise or sunset remained one of the more breathtaking scenes in the world, the sun's rays reflecting off the Empire State's many skyscrapers.
Nevertheless, the beginning of a new day couldn't wash away the recollection of the failed mission etched in Tatyana's mind. Squinting her eyes, she found there was no hangover to endure after consuming a full bottle of whiskey although a migraine was the least of her worries. A pained groan escapes Tatyana's mouth after stretching her stiff limbs, her dislocated shoulder feeling much better.
Shifting her gaze, Master Raven realized she still had on her civilian attire from yesterday, her injuries and cuts visible. A much-needed shower would help ease all discomfort. The ebony woman entered her bathroom and turned the shower head on before disrobing, her voluptuous body immersing into the steaming stream of water cascading over her faded scars. Grabbing some soap, Tatyana lathers down her mahogany skin, staying in the shower for nearly twenty-five minutes before obtaining two towels to wrap around her body and hair.
A low growl emitted from her stomach, signaling the need for food. With that, Tatyana trekked to the kitchen with a fresh set of clothes, procuring an apple from the refrigerator. Not even three bites into the fruit, the ebony woman detected another presence within her home. She quickly teleported into her room to retrieve her sword and appeared in the living room to see a lone male standing at the fireplace, his back turned. Master Raven drew the weapon out and lunged forward, placing the blade near her intruder's throat.
"Who are you?" Tatyana scowls in demand.
"I was hoping to find you here," his stern voice murmured.
Even with the person's back facing her, Tatyana immediately recognized his voice, failing to hide her shock as she jumped back, careful not to accidentally slit his throat. "Raven!?"
Turning around, Raven stood tall against a makeshift fireplace clad in a clean uniform. Scars litter Raven's body, but none more scathing than on his torso; the bandages underneath covering three separate bullet wounds located on his right pectoral muscle. It's a feat in itself Raven survived, let alone stand in his master's home as if nothing harrowing took place.
However, this didn't change Tatyana's mood in the slightest. "What the hell are you doing here!? You're supposed to be recuperating!"
Raven waves his uninjured hand. "I'm fine. It's only-"
"I don't recall three gunshot wounds to be a nonchalant injury!" she cut him off.
After all the years they've been together from childhood up to now, Raven had never seen her so full of rage and directed at him. Tatyana was anything but pleased as she walked back to the couch and sat down. While glad her top subordinate was awake and alert; Master Raven was beyond pissed Raven was here in her apartment instead of resting.
Finally, the female ninja semi-calmed down, the stern look persistent. "I'll ask you again. Why are you here?"
Raven calmly approached the couch and sat down, making sure to keep a respectable distance. "My injuries heal quicker than people think. Plus, staying in that godforsaken place isn't ideal for me. The doctors aided in my recovery despite their earlier diagnosis that I might not live."
The temper portrayed on Master Raven's face slightly decreased, but she remained agitated. He usually was more precise and calculated, not reckless. "Even so, agent, you can't take three bullets and shake them off the next day. As I stated before, you-"
"Next day?" Raven stopped her. "It's been two days since our mission went straight to hell."
Master Raven now knew that alcohol negatively affected her rationale so much that she couldn't form a sentence. Two days? What all occurred during that time lapse? That must have been some whiskey she indulged, the bottle it originated from sat empty to the last drop on the glass table.
'Never again will I do that.' Tatyana chastised herself before tossing the bottle in the trash. 'I'll rue that decision in the future.'
Tatyana was unhappy with how she handled her subordinate's condition last night. Hell, there were many things she was upset over - both at Raven and her own mistakes, nothing more scathing than letting him see her in a moment of weakness inside her own home.
Sitting back down, Master Raven faces Raven again. "For the record, I don't appreciate you waltzing into my apartment. There's something known as privacy."
Raven raises an eyebrow. "Only reason I came in unannounced was to check on you. Along with that, both locks on your door were unsecured."
Master Raven's face fell again at what he just said. Though she was more than capable of defending herself, Tatyana always bolted her door and activated her security system after retiring for the day. Things were going from bad to worse. Tatyana could only place her head in her hands. She then craned her neck to gaze at her subordinate who sat unmoving with the same stoic expression that always seems to linger on his face. Silence entrapped both agents as Raven peers out to the balcony's view of the city.
"I understand why you didn't want to be bedridden," Master Raven abruptly said, grabbing his attention. "But why come here? I'm more than capable of taking care of myself. Your actions are out of character."
Their stares held even as Raven countered, "Funny you say that when you drank your way into a blackout, all because I got hurt in the line of duty?" He paused with a shake of the head. "I'm here because I didn't want to be bothered at the agency by Jones or the others, nor did I want to discuss the mission. Being in that hospital for a few days was torture enough. I needed privacy, something unachievable if I returned to HQ." Raven softened his features. "If I'm intruding your time, I can leave."
"No... It's fine, Raven." Master Raven relented, unable to stay furious at her most trusted agent. "Can I get you anything? Some water or fruit?"
"I'll accept a glass of water, please," Raven answered.
Nodding, Tatyana left to the kitchen to fetch him a glass of water. Raven couldn't help but stare at Master Raven's retreating form. He's always admired the way she carried herself as the leader of the UN's most powerful force. However, something else managed to preoccupy his attention — her intelligence, confidence, and appearance.
"Ice or no ice?" Master Raven's voice from the kitchen startled him.
Raven responded respectfully, "No ice, please."
Coming back in the living room, Tatyana had two glasses of water and gave one to Raven before sitting down to take a small sip. "I'm satisfied you're feeling healthy now, but those aren't common injuries. Part of me felt you weren't going to make it," she informed her agent before pausing. "I sat there as you laid bleeding, feeling guilty for allowing you to take the hit. I'm truly sorry and take responsibility for nearly having you die on my watch."
Raven soaked in all her words and more importantly, her remorse. Never before has Master Raven ever apologize to him directly. This day has shown an entirely different side between the two of them, who were both uncharacteristically nervous. They've been around each other in close quarters in meetings and missions before.
So, why did this feel different?
"I accept your apology." Raven finally said. "But, I'm also at fault for not getting there sooner."
"You're the reason I'm alive right now, Raven." Tatyana immediately followed up. "You never should've been put in that predicament."
The ebony woman's body sunk further into the couch, a long, drawn-out breath escaping her mouth as nearly all the anger from earlier had vanished. Finding him inside her house not looking the worst for wear caught Tatyana off guard. For now, life would resume as usual, if that was possible at this juncture. Raven did Tatyana a considerable favor by coming to her apartment, the last of her agitation filtered out which caused her to laugh softly.
"What's funny?" Raven inquired.
"Nothing... if anything else, a restart for the failed operation seems prudent," she admitted, staring at all the afflictions on his person. "I'm still not convinced of your recovery, however."
Raven glanced down at every scar she eluded to, a small but noticeable smirk as he viewed each bruise. "Guess I was more injured than first assumed. However, I assure you I'm fit to return to duty."
A frown came back to Master Raven's mouth as a thought struck her. "Then why so concerned for my well-being? There was no logical reason to risk your life on my behalf. You of all people know I don't favor owing debts to anyone, and doing so is-"
"Is what?" Raven interrupted, quite offended by her statement.
For the first time all morning, tension rose amongst the two ninjas at Master Raven's plausible argument for demanding answers from her second in command.
Her face quickly turned into confusion as Raven focuses on the distance outside her window, the younger ninja leaning back on the couch. "To be brutally honest, I can't clearly explain what transpired. Putting the mission first seemed illogical for me to do. I couldn't just stand there and let our enemy cause harm to you or anyone else even if it meant the mission was a failure. It wouldn't sit well with me knowing someone perished."
It was now Raven's turn to sigh, matching Tatyana's gaze. "In my opinion, a successful mission means everyone comes back in one piece. Screw the mission; it's not worth one of our lives."
Shock filled Master Raven's entire body, her eyes lowering to the floor beneath her feet in stunned silence. "Why? Even if our missions aren't worth death, what do I-" Immediately, Tatyana stopped speaking.
Not lost on this, Raven turned his attention back to her. "What?"
"What do I mean to you or anyone for that matter?" Tatyana incredulously asked. "From working alongside one another... you rarely socialize with any of our soldiers other than me, Raven, and that's only for important matters of this magnitude." For one of the rarest of instances, Master Raven struggled for words but managed to gather her wits. "Forgive me if I can't theorize any value you put on my life or theirs."
"Can't say you're wrong, that would be ignorance on my part. Our 'associates' as I call them are loyal like we are." Raven carefully said, growing more embarrassed by where the conversation was heading. "Yes, I recognize I don't socialize with them, something I vow to correct. If anything else, I greatly value their loyalty." He released another breath. "And... we've been working together for many years even before joining the United Nations. I always look forward to that aspect, and I'm not in a rush for that to change."
A pin drop resonated in the living room, both ninjas rendered silent for another long stretch. It was a great deal of info to digest since the infamous explosion two days ago.
"Right now, I'm satisfied in spite of our current situation." Raven continues. "We've made steady progress on our end but more needs to be done without losing any of our people, whom I care for deeply... especially you."
Master Raven finally understood what was on his mind, or that's what she told herself. "Raven," she softly spoke his name. "Master's death wasn't our fault. It was his time..."
Raven's firm voice returned, his eyes shutting behind the sunglasses. "This doesn't have anything to do with him; God bless his soul. I could sense he wouldn't be around much longer and I've come to terms with that. What matters now is protecting everything around me in the here and now without worrying about past shortcomings. That's worth dying for, not our occupations with the UN."
Feeling somewhat exhausted, Raven fell into his customary silence. His boss failed to say anything either. Unbelievably, it was already three o' clock in the afternoon. Neither person realized how long they spoke to each other, only focusing on their conversation, something the kunoichi will rectify momentarily.
Suddenly, Master Raven got up from the couch. "Stay here," she began before grabbing her sword, ascending upstairs to her bedroom. "We're not done with this conversation."
Raven was puzzled as to why she wanted him to stay, positive his boss would send him home. Even if he wanted to leave, Raven found it hard to do so; the past few hours manifesting a strange emotion that drove his mind up a wall, but nothing could prepare him for what was to come. A vertical swipe whiffed overhead made that point clear, Raven ducking just in time as he rolled to a safe distance before getting back to his feet. Master Raven had come back from upstairs dressed in her ninja bodysuit, her sword tightly held in the left hand.
"As I said, we're going to finish this," Tatyana said.
"Master!" Raven grimaces in pain at his still injured pectoral. "What are you doing!?"
Ignoring his outburst, the female ninja charged him head-on. Having no other choice, Raven took out his smaller twin blades and deflected her quick swipes. His superior swung her sword with an overhead slash to which he blocked. They held their weapons in a standstill before disengaging.
"You say you're healthy?" Master Raven displayed a smirk. "Prove it."
"What's gotten into you!?" Raven yelled.
"Come at me with everything you got! Don't hold back!" she challenged, the tone in her voice vastly different than from their chat.
With those final words, Master Raven let out a battle cry and quickly closed the distance between herself and Raven, the male ninja using his agility to dodge most of her offense. The problem was that Master Raven is just as fast, if not quicker than him adding that he was in no condition to fight, his superior nursing a dislocated shoulder herself. However, the blonde haired ninja knew better than to take Tatyana lightly.
The female ninja frustrated Raven utilizing quick pokes with her off hand and swept him off his feet with her right leg. He quickly got up composed; his small swords used to create distance, the flat luckily spacious enough not to cause much destruction. Raven finally connected with a hard elbow on top of his superior's skull. The blow stunned her, allowing him to press further and perform his patented 'Crusader,' knocking Master Raven back on her heels before crashing on the floor. Raven fell to one knee in exhaustion; none the less readying himself again as his boss gingerly held her ribs while staggering upright.
"Damn..." Tatyana utters. "Nice shot."
"This is ridiculous!" Raven retaliated.
Then, within a blink of an eye, Master Raven teleported in front of her subordinate to deliver a picture-perfect 'Chakram' maneuver, landing a well-placed spinning kick to Raven's head followed by a right leg sweep, finishing with the same move Raven performed earlier. He dizzily fell into the kitchen from the onslaught, barely managing to gather himself as his superior dashed towards him again, her sword drawn out. A beautiful and frightening display of a sword fight would then commence.
Both Tekken competitors averted each other's swipes not looking the worst for wear. Deep down, Master Raven was pleasantly amazed at Raven's fearlessness through all the ailments. Their swords clashed again before each ninja placed their weapons at the opponent's jugular - boss and subordinate inching closer. That's when it hit Tatyana.
She experienced a deep longing to kiss Raven.
Funny as the thought seemed, the new urge dawned on Tatyana when Raven took a seat on her couch, wondering if the alcohol from last night was playing a factor though it long passed through her system. Master Raven couldn't get the thought of kissing her top agent out of her mind even when they were so close to hurting each other in a mock training session. She held a soft spot in her heart for him when they were kids all those years ago under their beloved master's tutelage. Raven was so similar to her in so many ways: Strong, level-headed (mostly), and loyal. One characteristic that always interested Master Raven was his silence added with a mysterious demeanor. Never had the thought of acting on these feelings ever occurred in her mind.
Tatyana, however, wanted to know how deep his feelings went and wouldn't hesitate after coming dangerously close to losing him.
Gazing into her agent's eyes through his sunglasses, Master Raven slowly withdrew her weapon from his neck, allowing him to do the same as the intensity declined between them. Virtually no distance seemed visible as the female kunoichi stepped closer. Raven didn't stop her forward momentum and watched Master Raven remove his shades to expose his dark-colored eyes accompanied by the noticeable X scar on his face, another similarity they shared.
"What are you-" Raven started.
Nothing else came out of his mouth after being rendered silent by a single finger. Master Raven used this moment to study his facial features. The male ninja could only stare while watching his superior lean closer, a sultry look in her eyes.
"Relax," Tatyana's hot breath tickled his lips. "I only wish to try something with you."
Master Raven removed her finger and closed the distance entirely by placing her lips on Raven's mouth; the kiss light in nature, but firm in passion as the ebony woman didn't force him to respond. After ten seconds, Master Raven backed away from her top agent to gauge his unreadable expression.
"Why?" Raven finally managed to say.
Her answer was immediate. "Because I also want to ensure the care and safety of everyone close to me." Master Raven murmured. "That night was the first time I've been afraid when you nearly died on us... On me." Her lips remained near his mouth. "But you're here now, and I want you to enjoy what I'm offering."
Curiosity and uncertainty intermixed in Raven's facial features. "Offering?"
A sincere smile graced Master Raven's beautiful face as her arms made their way over his shoulders. "I care deeply for you, Raven." She paused to think about her next choice of words. "While Jones and the other higher-ups may frown upon this in the workplace, I want to give this a try."
Nervousness radiated off Raven, unsure it was worth the risk though he wasn't opposed to the notion.
The smile on Master Raven's face grew, cupping his left cheek and bringing their foreheads together in an uncharacteristic way unbecoming of her. "This is a unique situation for me as well, and I'm not looking for you to match any expectations. Besides..." A quick grin formed on her face. "You're a good kisser."
Before Raven could say anything else, Master Raven began another kissing session, putting more passion into her actions as their lips danced in unison. She pressed against his body to allow her clothed chest to mash perfectly with Raven's massive torso. Feeling emboldened, the female ninja snakes her tongue forward in silent permission, Raven hesitant at first before slightly parting his mouth. Their tongues danced sensually, the thrill of experiencing a distinct taste so breathtaking caused both to pull away. Each ninja's heart rate thumped against their chests at an accelerated pace. Master Raven felt dizzy but didn't care in the slightest, apparently turned on by this encounter. Raven was a different story, dubious at what precisely developed. His boss, who was an attractive young woman though slighter older, had just made out with him.
Moreover, he immensely enjoyed it.
One of Raven's gloved hands slowly caresses Master Raven's face, his fingers delicately tracing the numerous scars on her otherwise flawless complexion. She caught his hand against her cheek with her own, a smile succeeding a deep sigh. Using her slender hands, Tatyana removed the set of gloves off his arms, leaving his hands exposed.
Without warning, Master Raven dove in for another kiss that caught Raven off guard, hence the surprised groan. He made sure to move his lips in sync with hers, grazing the side of her face as their mouths clashed in hunger. Neither person wanted any space separating them from what they truly desired. Gaining more confidence, Raven held his superior's hips before lifting her body to settle on the kitchen countertop, keeping the kiss connected.
'Mmm... That was a new trick.' Tatyana smiles inside her head.
She wrapped all her limbs around Raven's body to pull him closer, continuing to let their passions speak without the use of words. Warmth transferred through their bodies along with the temperature slowly rising inside the apartment. They kept exploring each other's body as the lip-lock grew in intensity. Raven expertly slides his hands over her back to memorize each soft muscle as he reached the base of her spine. A tingle of pleasure pinged Master Raven, her subordinate's fingers stroking the area repeatedly. She returned the favor by kneading his broad shoulders in a circular motion before her hands disappeared inside his bodysuit, caressing his well-defined chest. Their tongue war unfolded into a game of chess, darting in and out of each other's mouth. Master Raven lost herself in utter bliss, her body growing hotter with each passing second while absorbing the same energy radiating off Raven as he traced wet kisses from her jawline down towards her neck. Tatyana's eyes rolled in her head, an abrasive pressure building in her nether regions.
It was at that instant; Tatyana craved for more.
Reluctantly, the female ninja broke the kiss and backed away to study the object of her desire. Raven breathed audibly, his once bewildered look replaced with a longing gaze. In his eyes was a fire she'd never seen before, and he was eager to explore more.
How could she deny him what he truly wanted?
Gently grabbing Raven's face, Master Raven attacked his lips again with reckless abandon. In response, he took his own set of hands and led them to her plump ass, squeezing her clothed flesh with vigor. A loud moan escaped the kunoichi at the extrinsic feeling, loving the feel of her toned backside being fondled and caressed. The sensation became too much, and it forced Tatyana to break the kiss, her eyes hazing over with arousal.
"Did I offend you?" Raven asked in a quiet tone, his grasp on her posterior lessening before pulling away entirely.
With lightning quickness, Master Raven grabbed his hands and put them back on her derriere. "No," she murmured, her dark eyes roaming her agent's athletic body, sweat protruding from his forehead. "I want to continue this elsewhere."

Master Raven hopped off the counter before taking Raven's hand to lead him upstairs to her bedroom. He took in the sight of her physique. Lean, athletic, and voluptuous in all the right places. Tatyana turned around just in time to catch him staring and smiled before pecking his cheek as they reached her room. The door shut behind him, prompting the male ninja to face his boss who displayed a mixture of love and lust in her eyes.
"Like what you see, handsome?" Master Raven smiled, slowly swishing her waist.
"Very much so," Raven swallowed hard, a noticeable blush across his face. "I've never told you this before, but... you're incredibly beautiful."
His superior stared at him after his compliment; no one had ever called Tatyana beautiful before. She's heard other terms, some of them demeaning and degrading, but nothing like what Raven just said. Grinning, Master Raven put her hands on his chest and kissed him with a light touch.
"Thank you for your kind words. No one has ever told me that." Master Raven then began kissing his neck. "But please, call me by my real name from now on."
Raven softly moaned, her lips sending chills over his body. "Tatyana..."
Their lip lock resumes as Tatyana made sure to keep contact with Raven's skin, sliding her hands underneath his suit to find the zipper, taking her time pulling it down to ease the top off his upper body. Stepping back, Tatyana damn near fainted at the sight of his half-naked body but cringed after viewing the nasty bandage covering his pectoral.
"Please forgive me..." she whispered.
A befuddled look was her subordinate's response. "Why? You've done nothing wrong."
"For you getting hurt." Small, delicate fingers hovered over the cloth bandages, careful not to hit the flesh wounds. Tatyana could only imagine the hell he went through to ensure no harm befell on her. "Allow me to make up for it."
Mocha lips touched down on Raven's torso leaving small but noticeable kiss marks on each piece of skin. Raven relaxed and brought Tatyana's body closer to stroke her back while searching for the top of her uniform's zipper. Master Raven felt the cool air against her back as Raven slowly undressed her, returning the favor by undoing his pants. All that stood between them now was their underwear; Raven clad in black boxers, and Tatyana garbed in a navy bra and thong set.
"Before we go any further, I want to ask you, Raven." Tatyana began. "Are you comfortable with this? There's no turning back once we start."
For the first time in what felt like years, Raven smiled. "I would like to continue. However, I don't want you to think you're a friend with benefits."
She kisses him again. "I'm glad you feel that way." With her arms, Tatyana gently nudges Raven onto the mattress. "Sit back and watch."
A seductive and alluring look adorned Master Raven's face as Raven took in her breathtaking appearance, Tatyana reaching behind her back with one hand to unclip the undergarment covering her chest. A simple snap echoed in the quiet space before both her arms removed the article of clothing. Raven's breath held in his throat at seeing his boss' magnificent breasts and dark areolas, guessing she was a 36 or 38 DD cup size. She then surprised him and turned around, bending down to expose her tantalizing legs. Raven's erection strained against his boxers at the sight of Tatyana's well-shaped rump as the ebony woman massaged each leg and discarded the last article of clothing before tossing it aside. His stun reaction told the whole story after seeing Tatyana in the buff. She approached him, her hips swaying with every step as she crawled into Raven's lap and straddled his waist. Her enlarged bust obstructed his vision, but it didn't stop Raven from casting glances. Tatyana noticed this and smiled again before grabbing one of his hands.
"Raven," Tatyana murmurs, her eyes tender as she took his right hand. "There's nothing for you to fear. Touch me wherever you like." She brought his hand up and enclosed it around her left breast.
Raven got the gist of what she meant and slightly squeezed, earning a moan of pleasure from her voice. His fingers brushed against the hardened nipple which sent a shiver of excitement through her body. The subordinate said nothing and continued experimenting, Tatyana barely fighting off the inner urge to roll over and have Raven claim her, opting instead to remain patient. Raven settled his mouth in the curve of her neck, breathing in Tatyana's exotic scent while kissing her throat, another small moan further encouraging him. Raven didn't need any more prodding and traversed down to her breasts. The blonde-haired man fondled both of Tatyana's orbs in each hand, astounded at their softness in his gentle grip.
"They... feel nice," Raven said, massaging her bosom in a circular motion, squeezing every few rotations while stroking the mounds.
He flicked his thumbs on both nipples, Tatyana biting down hard on her lip to keep from shouting and caught his mouth in a desperate kiss, pushing him on his back with her face alone. Raven held her breasts despite falling backward. A loud gasp leaked out of the kunoichi's throat as Raven squeezed harder, her chest filling in-between his fingers, teasing the right nipple with gentle licks.
Barely able to open her eyes, Tatyana responded, "Ahhh... R- Raven. Mmm. You're doing (gasp) great."
The female ninja could feel Raven's manhood pulsating between her thighs, her moist cavern's fluids seeping onto the sheets. Master Raven couldn't believe the amount of arousal radiating off herself and her subordinate. It would only be a matter of time before the real fun begins.
She collapsed against Raven after another wave of pleasure surged inside her stomach, her tits tenderly stroked. Heavy panting increased before Tatyana raised her hand and stopped his treatment on her breasts.
"Against... the pillows," Tatyana struggled to regain her breath.
Raven complied without hesitation, moving back to prop his head on one of her many pillows. Tatyana seductively slid her breasts along his legs while inching her way towards her prize.
His giant erection.
No words came out of Raven as he observed in silence. Tatyana brushed his hardened member covered by his boxers and gauged his reaction. Raven's entire body stiffened, his head leaning up with the sudden sensation racing throughout his whole being. Tatyana used this distraction to strip his underwear. Her slender hand stroked the hardened manhood, causing Raven to clench the comforter tightly.
"Impressive," the kunoichi remarked as she touched the tip of his member with her thumb.
With Raven and herself naked on her bed, only thoughts of pleasuring him to the best of her abilities ran through Tatyana's mind. Being delicate, Tatyana wrapped her fingers around his enormous cock to pump at an even pace, having him exactly where she wanted. Raven cursed under his breath with an almost pained grimace. He tried to reach out and touch her but felt his hand batted away.
Tatyana grins. "No touching. I'll do that for you."
Lowering her face towards his member, Tatyana slowly ran her tongue over the mushroom head, giving gentle licks while keeping a firm grip on his length. All rational thought shot out the window. Tatyana then engulfed his member and bobbed her head at a deliberate pace, using her mouth and tongue over every inch of his shaft. A deep groan escaped Raven's throat, slightly arching his back as his forward propulsion brought him closer to her face without thinking. She sucked harder to the point of milking him dry, the taste of pre-cum becoming apparent as Tatyana worked Raven over. She then felt a hand on her shoulder, a signal that her agent was close to boiling over.
"Ta... Tatyana that feels (groans) incredible." Raven mutters.
Liking his answer, Tatyana released his member out of her mouth and kept stroking him at a brisk pace but surprised Raven when she leaned down and licked his ball sack. The loudest groan of the afternoon erupted from her subordinate's mouth at the action. It grew even louder as she sucked on one of his testicles. Her hand picked up speed in rubbing the lengthened python, her saliva lubricating the skin. The combine pleasures on his accessories and pole rendered Raven helpless before she finished him off. Tatyana backed away just in time as his appendage twitched three times, Raven loudly groaning as his manhood shot out streams of seed which landed on her face, mouth, and the bed, his superior not expecting such a large load. After using a towel to clean herself up, Tatyana swallowed some of his cum before eyeing a breathless Raven with hungry eyes.
As she inched closer, Raven flipped a surprised Tatyana on her back to kiss her deeply. She gripped his member again, her eyes widening in surprise. By some miracle, he was still rock hard and ready for more.
'He's still hard after that explosion?' Tatyana thought in amazement.
Seeing Raven recover so quickly halted Tatyana's notion that his member needed her immediate attention, both ninjas burning with a desire to push forward in their sensual dance. Tatyana embraced Raven, bestowing passionate kisses on him as she rested against the pillows.
It was now Raven's turn to take the initiative.
Tatyana squirmed underneath, Raven's hands tracing her curves as the fire in her loins returned with a vengeance. He leaned over her with each hand on either side, gazing profoundly at the nude body of his boss. They merely stared at one another, their thoughts anything but pure. Reaching up with one hand, Tatyana placed it on Raven's chest to feel the fast-paced rhythm of his heart rate.
"I must admit, this day has been more than I expected," Raven spoke first.
She caressed his face. "I as well, but after these past few days, I accept everything for what it is."
They kissed again, their bodies rubbing against one another to build more warmth, their skins glistened in sweat. Raven traced her spine while Tatyana caressed his chest, their legs entangled together.
Raven felt the need to ask that all important question. "Are... you sure you want to do this?"
Another sincere smile graced Tatyana's lips. "Yes, Raven. You don't know how long I've yearned to be with you." She proved that point by guiding his erection to her slick folds.
With nothing holding him back, Raven brushed the head of his member ever so slightly against the slick opening before gradually pushing his way in, both ninjas shuddering as a result. Tatyana quickly wrapped her arms around his neck due to the stinging pain though he didn't break her barrier.
"I'm sorry I didn't tell you yet but... I'm a virgin." Tatyana admitted.
He understood and pecked her cheek. "Don't feel bad. You're my first as well."
Tatyana smiled and kissed him again. "Well then, show me what you got."
Raven heeded her command and submerged his cock deep within Tatyana's folds, the push destroying her sacred wall. Both ninjas groaned at the sheer force of pleasure overtaking their senses as their union joined together.
"Oh God, Raven..." Tatyana moaned. "Wait... let me..."
She couldn't believe how big he was inside her depths. Nothing in this world could prepare Tatyana for how painful losing her virginity felt, Raven's manhood stretching her walls to the limit. Surges of wild passion unleashed in each ninja's libido, the pressure of her folds squeezing his organ forced Raven to groan uncontrollably. Instead of waiting for Tatyana to adjust, he slowly pulled back and rocked forward again, savoring the feel and slickness of her womanhood.
"Tatyana, I... can't... stop," Raven grunted, losing control of his self-awareness as he buried himself deep within his boss' depths, the smoldering heat bringing about a primal instinct.
Tatyana erotically cried out, her G-Spot stimulated by her agent's member as he rhythmically moved inside her wetness. Raven clenched the bed sheets in each hand, his eyes tightly closing while delivering powerful thrusts into her core. No longer able to stay silent, Tatyana gasped, moaned, and pleaded for more, her eyes tightly shut while holding Raven's neck, her bosom swaying tremendously. She then grounded her hips, wanting to feel every single inch of his thick shaft. Sweat intermingled between both ninjas, the heat of their body temperatures and the room climbing as they continued making love.
Another loud groaned escaped Raven, his member trapped in the vice grip of Tatyana's walls, thus slowing his momentum. The woman below him felt her entire body tremble as her first orgasm sent an exhilarating shock down her spine, pure bliss consuming her mind. Tatyana buried her face in Raven's shoulders, doing her best to stifle her cry of pleasure at the sudden feeling. Both panted at their actions with sweat trickling down their now slick bodies. Raven was about to withdraw out of her folds, only to have the kunoichi's hands grip his rear end.
"No, don't stop..." Tatyana begged, nearly out of oxygen. "More... please."
Overtaken by desperation, Tatyana reverses their positions with her strong legs, giving herself the reigns of control. A loud gasp emerged from Tatyana's mouth as she slid down Raven's appendage, the bed beneath them creaking with their movements. Tatyana's smooth thighs rub against Raven's waist as the female ninja rocked back and forth. He couldn't help but feel entranced by the sway of her chest, both breasts bobbing vertically. To fill his lust, Raven reached up and held her melons in place, pinching them every few seconds to increase Tatyana's ecstasy before her moans morphed into modest screams, their arousal reaching an apex.
"Ahh!" Another surge of pleasure rushed through Tatyana, her head thrown back for a lustful shout.
Raven felt something well up in his being, the heat of his boss' slick folds overwhelming him. "T- Tatyana. (Deep groan) I have to stop..."
He wouldn't get any further as Tatyana grabbed his shoulders to bring him up for a frenzied kiss, her tongue shoved in his mouth. She held his face as he groped her breasts. All their feelings and unspoken words were poured into the kiss, halting any argument Raven even thought about voicing. Both sets of hips slammed together in a frenzy, the sounds of flesh pounding against each other mixed with screams and moans. Raven cursed loudly for the umpteenth time, unable to halt a soul-shattering orgasm erupting out of his member and into his lady's womb. Tatyana immediately screamed her lungs out before releasing her nectar to combine with Raven's seed.
Sighs of contentment passed through each agent's lips as Tatyana collapsed on Raven's chest, unable to keep herself upright due to fatigue and exhaustion. That didn't stop her from trailing a finger across his smooth chest, being mindful of the injured pectoral. In return, Raven lovingly ran his hands over the soft, damp skin of her back. Heavy breathing reverberated within the room as Raven and Tatyana's eyes closed, reveling in the afterglow of their passionate night.
"To think... I was only making sure you were well." Raven spoke in observance.
"Says the one who came here severely injured." Tatyana hummed, smiling all the while.
The ebony woman looked at him with faint amusement, feeling happier than at any point in her life. Although unsure of how she felt about Raven before today, Tatyana now knew that question answered itself. She loved him.
However, was it too early to tell him?
Raven's expression then darkened as his eyes widened at the sudden realization of what they just did, knowing there would be severe repercussions.
"Don't worry, I'm on the pill and won't become pregnant." Tatyana immediately reassured her lover. "I know we just got together, but I would never do something like tying you down with a child."
"I trust you, Tatyana." Raven then saw the sun dip outside the window, meaning it was now evening time around 6:30 or so. He started to sit up. "I think I should go home."
Before Raven could even move, Tatyana stopped him by placing more of her body weight on top. "Don't go; please stay. After nearly losing you several days ago, I can say this and harbor no regrets..." She paused before saying, "I love you, and don't ever want you to leave my side as a second in command, or in our private life." Tatyana kissed his chest. "You said it yourself; we've gone through a lot together. By no means am I forcing you to do this, but I want you here for the long haul. Would you accept me as more than your superior?"
As he did earlier in the day, Raven gazed intently at his boss after she asked the life-altering question. Never did he ever think Master Raven would ever consider him more than her first lieutenant. That thinking was now obsolete. Tatyana wanted him to stay not just for the rest of tonight, but to form a deeper relationship.
With a smile, Raven kissed his lady's forehead. "You gave me a chance I didn't think was possible. I'll stay for as long as you want me."
Tatyana instantly inched closer to Raven's lips. "That could be a really, long time," she whispered.
"And that's fine with me," Raven replied.
With a smile sawing her face in half, Tatyana closed the distance in a sweet kiss, taking her time before finally pulling away to snuggle deep in Raven's chest, her hands placed on his shoulders. Raven reciprocated the action by holding Tatyana's waist, his head lying against the cushioned pillow.
Each ninja fell asleep for the next few hours, content with the knowledge of their now blossoming feelings, their shared future looking brighter.
