Worlds Collide

Chapter Fourteen: Murder

Raven felt David's heartbeat and used it to find him. She ran out so fast that she didn't think about anything else but him. But David was being tormented by Laurel over and over again not feeling or thinking about Raven. Just what was gonna happen. Was he gonna live or was he gonna die? He hadn't known the answer. Laurel kept on sliding a knife around him, specifically his chest. Blood spilled down his chest as she lightly sliced his skin open. He gritted his teeth and held back his screams. He didn't know what was happening to Quentin Lance, but he was afraid of the outcome. What the hell was happening? Was he gonna live? He had slim hope that he would.

  Raven ran on telephone lines. She didn't think for a second to fly above. She would jump and press her wrists together and would be on another one repeatedly. It became a little too dangerous as it started sprinkling. Eventually she pressed her hand over her heart and used his heartbeat to find her way. David's heart started pacing as he felt death near. He felt some water drop down onto his scalp a few times. He was afraid it was blood from Iris or Lance. Silence occurred when he realized Laurel was nowhere to be found. He thought they were gone and he would be able to escape. But when he tried to get the chain undone he heard Quentin's blood curdling scream. He backed down immediately as fear overcame his mind. He repeated that he was gonna die over and over and over again in his head cause he knew it was gonna be his time.

  Raven kept running for him. She was on top of so many buildings and jumping off of previous ones to get to him. Her tears were unfelt and the wind on her skin was pounding knives against her chest. The more she ran the more her heart sped up the more she felt close to him. She was out of her mind so much that she jumped too early at one point and didn't make it to the ledge in time. David's heart kept upping its beat as death neared him. He kept on hoping that someone would save him but he didn't guarantee it. Death was so close to him that he was already lost in blackness of agony. He was the last one there that was most likely alive. He had no hope left that he was gonna survive, especially after Ricardo went down to get him whispering a weird beat to himself.

"Ba-dum, ba-dum
That's the sound of the chase
Ba-dum, ba-dum
That's the sound that it makes
Ba-dum, ba-dum
Then a fatal mistake
Ba-dum, ba
The dum never comes."

  Raven held onto the ledge for dear life as the rain kept coming harder. She felt that she was close to him but didn't have enough strength to pull herself up. The more she tried the harder it got to the point she lost her grip and fell. She almost reached her death when she turned into her raven form and flew up to the sky. Her heart beat pounded in her chest as she knew she was close. She felt his heart bleed out from fear. She knew something was going on. Luckily she turned from the place she was staring at and realizing that David was trapped in the abandoned building locked away. She ultimately made the decision to put herself at risk of death. She gathered up all of her strength and flew to the next building. She flew so fast that when she turned back into a human she crashed into the glass ceiling, falling close to her death. She crash landed on the metal ground, breaking a rib or two, but still having strength to try and find David.

  When she got up, she found nothing except a weird woman staring at her. She knew this chick was sketchy but she didn't know how much. "Can I help you?" The woman said. "Where is he?" Raven whispered softly but loud enough for the chick to hear. "Who?" The woman said.
Raven almost lost her mind and started screaming "where is he?" Over and over again before the girl gave a canary cry. Black Siren only caused her fall back a little.  Blood never fell from her eyes to turn blue, and her hearing wasn't damaged. She was just full of anger; more than ever before. "Where is he? Tell me!" She growled. She kept on saying it until she couldn't anymore. When she lost her grip to keep asking, she fell on her knees in tears. "You wanna know where they are? Fucking fight me then, bitch." Black Siren replied.
