Delsin Rowe and the Teen Titans 2: The fight for true love (Discontinued)

chapter twenty-four

Raven p.o.v

In her mind

As I walked down the path to my memory room, I noticed how dark it was in my head. With dark creatures flying in the air and crawling on the walls. This place is that I try to escape. It's the place that reminds me of who I truly am: a monster. As I continued to walk, it started to get colder and colder with every step I took. I couldn't take the cold anymore and wrapped myself in my cloak. Since I was shivering so much it made it harder to walk but I kept going. I kept going. I looked from afar and saw the door to the memory room. I was halfway there! But my body couldn't hold out anymore and gave in to the coldness. I fell to the floor and crunched up into a ball and held my cloak around my body. Then snow decided to appear and create a snow storm. The temperature of my body drop significantly. I couldn't feel my hands anymore or my feet for that matter. I'm suffering from hypothermia. This is it. The end of Raven Rowe.... One thing came across my mind. The thought wasn't 'I gotta keep warm' or 'I gotta get to the door' it was this one thing. "I wonder how Delsin and the others are doing right now. If Delsin was here he'd be walking in this cold like it was nothing. He'd pick me up and warm me up with his warm arms and carry me through the door'. I smiled at my thoughts. 'I love you Delsin' I thought as I closed my eyes. I opened my eyes to see the snow storm has stopped. "How the hell..." I said confused. How could this happen? How did this happen? As my mind wondered of the strangeness that just occurred, trying to make sense of things, My attention turned towards to the door to my memories. As my arms and legs regain consciousness, I continued my journey.

As I reached my memory room, it was totally pitch black. I stuck my arm out to feel the walls....if there were any. It was like the darkness is consuming my memories. As I kept searching for the walls, I tripped over something. I turned around to see a body lying on the ground. "What the hell?" I muttered. I walked towards the body to get a closer look at the person. The body posture of the body makes it look like to be a male. "Sir? Are you alright? Can I help you?" I asked. No answer. "Sir may I ask how you got here?" I asked another question. More silence. Finally, I grew tired of the one sided conversation and walked to him and flipped his body over to face me. When I saw his face, I couldn't believe it. "Delsin? Is that you?!" I said as I sat on the ground. "Delsin wake up! It's me! Raven! Wake up!" I said letting a tear slip from my face. I picked up his upper body and craddled him in my arms. "Delsin please!....wake up!....I love you!" I cried. No response. I cried on his chest. I cried so much that a giant spot of tears formed on Delsin's jean jacket vest. I lifted my head to dry the tears but only to notice that there were more bodies surrounding me. I looked around me. I first saw Zack and Sabrina lying on top of one another. "No! not you guys!!!" I bawled. Then to see Nightwing and Starfire laying next to one another. "Kori! Dick! No!" I cried even loud. Next it was Fetch and Eugene. Eugene was stabbed by a large sword and Fetch was sliced in half at the waist. I walked over to them and cried viciously. Then to see Garfield and Terra crushed by a gigantic rock. Cried louder when I saw them. I was about to walk over to them when something grabbed my ankle. I screamed in fear and was about to shock someone with my magic when I looked down to see a malfunctioning Cyborg crawling to me. "Oh my god! Cyborg!" I rushed to his rescue. "Here, let me help!....". "No!....you...could've saved...us! Inste-ad....yo-u stood by....and w-watched us....fall..one by o-ne! You watched...your f-father kill...the..Teen Titans! You wat-ched...as he...killed...The hu-man race!.....uh!" Cyborg said as he shut down permanently. I looked at my friend's corpse with scared look. I gently put Cyborg down and looked around once more. Suddenly, the number of dead bodies grew as the canvas opened up buildings were on fire, millions of people lying dead on the streets, demon hounds and warriors eating and hunting down every human on the planet. The sky is bloody red and the sun was black. I looked up to see my father,sitting on the Titans Tower like it was a chair, opened up a portal for more demon hounds and warriors to come to earth. "No! This isn't real! It's impossible! This is a nightmare!" I said shocked. This is earth? I can't even recognized it. 'all of my hard work to keep Trigon away from earth, it all fell apart....'. I fell to the ground on my knees and put my hands to my face and cried. all has gone wrong! "So this is it huh?". I turned my head as fast as possible to see who has uttered those five words. When at looked at her, I couldn't even breath right. She was.....me!. Except she had a more devilish look. Like her skin is reddish. Her teeth was sharper than mine too. Her hair was the same length as mine but she had red highlights thought. "Who are you?" I asked. "What are you talking about Raven? I'm you! Well.....the demonic side of you anyway. You know, the one that keeps creeping in every corner of your mind? The one reason why you were so distant to your friends because you were afriad that I might pop out and kill everyone you love? Yeah you know me" she said. I stayed silent. "So this is your greatest fear huh? Everyone you love dead at your feet and you could've stopped it. Well, soon your greatest fear will become reality!". Im shaking in fear. of her. 'That's where all of this power came from. She's the one who's in back of my mind trying to creep in at night. And she looks like me!' I thought. Still trembling with fear, I managed to open my mouth and get these words out. "What...d-do....you... w-want from...me?" I asked. "Oh honey. I don't want anything from you. In fact, I already have everything I wanted. Im free! Im free from that dark damn cage you kept me in in that damn mind of yours! And now that I'm free thanks to your father, I'll spread terror through the world and no one will ever stop me!" she said floating. "How...did my...f-father.. help.... You?". "Oh yeah that's right! You didn't know!.....". I stood there confused. 'what is she talking about?' I thought. "You remember when you were Trigon's little student?" She asked. I nodded my head. "And remember all those meals he fed you?". "Y-yeah what..about them?" I asked still shaking like a Chihuahua. "Well didn't the servings taste funny?" she asked. I thought back at the moment. "Yep your father doused the chicken with magic and now I'm free! Isn't that fantastic?!" she said cheerfully. "No! This can't be happening?!" I said as I curled up into a little ball rocking back and forth on the ground. Suddenly, a cold hard boney hand grabbed my head from the top and yanked it up to face her. As I looked into her evil bloodthirsty eyes, I can feel my soul slowly dying. "Now,now! If crawl away you'll miss the whole show! Can't have you missing out on the big event! Your brilliant father would want you to see your new home!" she said to me, gripping tighter on my head. "Get away from me you psychopathic bitch!" I said as I spat on her face. As she wiped away the spit, I was expecting a growl or a demon glare or something but instead.....she just smiled. "Haha! Yes! That's it Raven, fight back! Get angry! That's the old Raven I remamber!" she said. I got up and shot magic orbs at her. But out of the blue, I felt a sharp pain in my chest. That pain caused me to fall on my knees and cough up blood. Then she appeared. Her hand was phased through my chest. "Oh come on Raven! That was it? That's all you got? If you wanna face me you gotta bring your game to a whole other level!" she said. Then suddenly I felt her hand around my heart. She squeezed it slightly The pain was excruciating. A stream of blood poured out of my mouth. "Yeah! Hurts doesn't it?!". She squeezed tighter. "Arghh!". I coughed up more blood. "You know what I was in here?" she said tapping my head. "I was training. Training for the day I got loose. And when that day comes which will be very soon, I can take you down and rip the flesh off your bones!" she said as she squeezed tighter. "Arghhgghh!" I said choking on my blood. "You know, two more squeezes and I could pop your heart like a baloon!". "Ple-please...n-no......." I tried to say. "Oh relax! The reason you're not dead yet is because Trigon ordered me to keep you alive and if I kill you Im not sure what'll happen to me since I'm possesing your body". Finally as she removed her hand from my heart I was able to breath. I was still coughing up blood but it has stopped flowing. "I don't get you.....". "Ex-excuse me?" I answered confused. "I mean you have the most amazing father in the entire galaxy and he offers you to work aside him. You know how rare that is? Your father always works alone and conquers planets alone and when the only time he asks you to join his side, you turn him down!". All I did was stare at her. "All my life I've dreamt of working alongside Trigon. Now it's finally come true! And I won't let ANYONE! Stand in his way to achieve this power! NO ONE!" She yelled. "Now then I shall leave you here and embrace the sight of your world" she said. "Wait!". She stopped in place and turned to me. "Who are you?". "Oh honey, I'm Raven" she answered. "No I'm Raven!" I said confident. "No sweetie I'm Raven, you're Rachel. It's always been this way" she said as she teleported out. "What?"  I said confused.
