FYI: The video is "Burn" by The Cure... The song from The Crow when Eric transforms into The Crow... (I do not own the song nor do I own the video...)

...and the pic is a female version of The Crow I found on Pintrest. (I don't the picture either.)

(Shelly:) "...let him know..."

I gasp...

There is no air around me.

Like it doesn't even exist.

I crawl and claw my way out of the hollow crevice of earth.

I feel the rain on my face, washing my sins away.

Rain... Rain...

IT CAN'T RAIN ALL THE TIME, RAINE...

I start to shake...

I stand and walk through the cemetery.

My name is Raine.

Scarlett Raine.

I live on Sleepy Hollow Dr. six blocks away from...

SHIT!!

I trip, falling face first into another hole.

Ugh! Damn it.

I sigh and pull myself up.

I get on my feet again and look up.

The headstone.

.ERIC DRAVEN.

I touch it and it hits me.

A series of flashbacks.

I gasp and hear a caw.

I turn to see a big, black crow perched on my shoulder.

He tells me to go home and dry off.

I walk into my dusty old home and take a shower.

As more memories flood my mind.

** 1 year & 2 months eariler**

Eric and I are drunk and chasing eachother around my house, having a shaving cream war.

He and Shelly had a fight.

And we haven't seen eachother in awhile.

Yeah. We're friends with benefits.

We have been for years.

Since we first started our band, Hangman's Joke.

No one knows but us.

Eric and I have never said the words... But we love eachother.

But he's to be married in a couple months.

To Shelly.

I love her. I do.

But she cheats on Eric with this really shitty asshole named Skank.

Has been for a few years.

I don't have the heart to tell him.

I couldn't shatter him.

I'm not that cold hearted.

(Eric:) "C'mere! Haha!"

Eric quickly moves around the couch and jumps over the chair.

He captures me in his arms and makes me spray myself.

I squeal, then pout.

(Eric:) "Raine... Oh, I'm sorry."

I quickly bring the can up and squirt him in the face, laughing.

"Ha! Gotchya!"

Eric quickly pulls my forwards and puts his lips on mine.

I drop the can and wrap my arms around his neck.

He moans and picks me up by the backs of my thighs, carrying me to my bathroom.

He turns on the water and steps right in.

"Ahhh!! My clothes, damn it!"

(Eric:) "Gotta clean em anyway."

I giggle and kiss him again.

Eric hitches my dress up to my hip bones as his lips attack my neck.

I moan.

Eric pulls the straps off my shoulders and takes my left nipple into his mouth, making my senses overload.

I reach down and unhook his pants and he gingerly shoves two fingers into my wet core...

I let out a long moan....

"Eriiiiiiiccccc...."

Eric removes his fingers and kisses my lips... So sweetly.

He slips his hard member in and pushes me up the tile walls of the shower.

Somehow we made it to the bed and we're moaning and breathing...

Until we're screaming eachothers names.

**End flashback**

I sob.

That was the night we created our little girl...

....Erica Midnight....

I stumble out of the shower.

I look at my reflection in the dirty bathroom mirror.

Dead brown hair... Sunken eyes...The Scars...

I ball up my fist and hit the fucking thing, shattering it in a million pieces.

Making my old creepy theater masques Eric got me for my birthday, fall off the wall.

I run into my closet and grab my trunk.

Black Corset... Black fishnet long sleeve shirt...Tripp pants... My chains... Wrist cuffs...Knee high combat boots... Raven Manic Panic... Tattoo Gun...Ink...

I dye my hair jet black and gear up.

I grab my tattoo gun and turn it on.

I smirk and press the black ink coated machine operated needle onto my eyelid, as if applying liner...

Mimicking my theater masque.

I finish and walk out of the bathroom.

I walk past the spare room.

The nursery...

I clench my fists and grab my black leather hooded long coat and hit the streets searching.

Searching for the bastards who took my daughter from me and condemned me to a world without her....
