After an encounter with The Grimm Reaper, Little Raven Smith lives a carefree life. Her mother, Robin, and the local mechanic, John Graye, get married shortly after the incident.
Raven grows up into a beautiful woman whom every man desires, however...
"Rave? Raven, baby? Wake up, it's time for school.", my mom's voice pierced through the curtain of sleep that hung over me. As I slowly slipped out of my trance, a small groan left me before I slowly opened my eyes, revealing the smiling face of my mother. "Hey mom.", my scratchy and husky voice echoed in my own ears before it was smoothed over by honey coated tone of my mom which was accompanied by a kiss, "Hey, sweetie. Look, babe, you gotta get up. I have to take Di to school, have a nice day, I love you, and I'll see you later."
After mumbling a quick response, she left and my phone rang, blaring "Sweet Serenade", letting me know that my best friends were calling and I groggily answered. "Hello?", I said sitting up and stretching before heading to the bathroom. "Good morning, bitch!", they screamed in my ear and I immediately hung up. Unfortunately for me, they called back instantly, "I know you didn't just hang up on me.". I sighed lightly before replying, "Yes the hell I did, Eva. You and Ana are too loud and it's too early to deal with you right now.". Ana continued to yap on about nonsense as I muted her while winding my hair into a bun stepping into the running shower after stripping. A thump in my bedroom alerted me before I realized that the door was locked, but still, I couldn't shake the feeling that I was being watched...
Larry POV-
"Is she done yet, bro?", Lau asked impatiently causing me to roll my eyes behind my hands. "Dude, shut up. You take more time in the shower than me and her combined.", he sucked his teeth before we heard the water stop. "1...2...3...4...5...6...7...8...9...10.", we slowly counted in sync before removing our hands from our eyes and being met by the sound of Raven's friends, Eva and Ana. By the time we removed our hands, Rave was walking around in a towel waving around her hand as she spoke on the phone. She quickly dressed in her undergarments before removing her towel and hanging up just as I saw a dark shadowy figure holding a shining blade, causing me to teleport to her.
Her shrill scream didn't bother me as I participated in a standoff before my brother came in with a snarl on his face. "Leave now!", he growled at the figure as the floating particles banded together to form a clear figure we recognized as Orion. He smirked, his sharp fangs put on display, and diverted his attention to the half dressed adolescent behind us. We moved to guard her, already sensing his hunger causing his fangs to grow sharper and his hiss grew louder. "Go away, Orion. You're going against the Agreement Between Worlds. The Leader of The Underworld is not to let any of his Demons or Servants exit into The World Of The Mortals and harm or kill a Chosen or the Treaty is broken and war will engage.", I growled out backing Raven into the bathroom before placing a charm, enabling magic to enter unless it's us.

"I don't give a damn about the Treaty. You can't hide her away forever.", he smirked as smoked filled the room and cleared when he disappeared just when Raven started to struggle out of the bathroom, "Let me out! I have to go!". After making sure Orion was gone, I lifted the charm and gave her her clothes after she came out of the bathroom covering herself with a frightened look on her face, "Sorry, Raven.". We turned around as she quickly dressed, "Who are you? Why are you here? What did you mean Chosen", she backed away from us looking around for a weapon. "Larry.", Lau motioned to me, causing me to sigh and step up to her. "Raven, in a minute you will not remember anything. You forget us and Orion as well as anything you may have heard...", I placed my hand on her arm, "...You will be in your school's parking lot, sitting in your car...", I placed my other hand on her forehead, "...And you will not have any recollection of this encounter. Goodbye, Little Raven.".
Rave POV-
I was pulled back into reality by banging the car window and yelling outside, "Get out the car, bitch!". I peered out the window to see Ana being pushed aside by Bella, "Rave, come on, the bell's about to ring.". She opened the door and started to pull me out, my sporadic thoughts clouding the process of my moving.
I didn't remember anything after I got out of the shower and ended the phone call with the twins. That feeling that I was being watched was stronger and I didn't know why. My mind was so busy trying to piece together a puzzle that I was even sure I was apart of, or was I?
